Dear Debra,
My husband passed away a year ago and I have been very sad about his passing. I was married for 35 years. More than that, I do not feel attractive any more and feel frumpy and not contemporary. Where do I begin?
Thank you for your assistance.

Dear Gloria,
Thank you for reaching out to me. I appreciate you being so transparent and vulnerable. It’s understandable that you don’t feel contemporary, as you have been in a long term marriage. We tend to get very comfortable when in a happy and long term marriage.
My recommendation is that you add new zest in your life! Ask your hairdresser to try a new haircut or color your hair a new shade. Go to your favorite boutique and dare to wear some new clothes that make you feel beautiful and even sexy. Many stores employ personal shoppers and you will find that this is a great investment. You can develop a brand new style and confidence as well.
Have fun and take the leap to a brand new you!
