I am always looking for suggestions on things that would be helpful to share with all of you here. Recently I had a request for a What to Wear blog post for families that are interracial. And I couldn’t help but think, “Why had I never thought of doing this before? Of course I should …

What to Wear: For the Senior Guy Who Doesn’t Want Pictures
