Ellen LaFleche-Christian from The Socialite's Closet

Hi! I’m Ellen, a fashion and beauty-conscious mom of two young adults (22 and 26). I started this blog after being frustrated searching for realistic fashion and beauty advice for today’s mature woman.
Most of the fashion/beauty blogs I was finding were for younger women who had different beauty needs. I believe you can feel beautiful at any age and any size. I share healthy, realistic beauty and fashion information and DIYs geared toward women over 40.
