This week, I’m hosting Fashion Flash, the online magazine for women over 40 featuring beauty, lifestyle, travel, design, fashion, health and wellness, exercise, healthy cooking, and smart aging. Since my last time hosting, we have welcome two new members, Kristen Coffield from The Culinary Cure and Phyllis Lerner from Follow Phyllis. Both women focus on health from different angles: Kristen – healthy eating and Phyllis – fitness. I know you’ll enjoy getting to know both of them. Please check out their posts, and say hi while you’re there!
Here are this week’s entries from all the members of Fashion Flash!
