.WHO is the Chief Blonde? The Chief Blonde is an every woman. She is trying to get her act together, get back into the job market, get her kids off to college (and out of the house), keep a great relationship going with her husband--all the while trying to blog about what it takes to be a 45+ woman in today's world. She tries to address questions like: Can I still wear this outfit? Can I still wear my hair like this or if not, how should I wear it? What the heck is happening to my skin now that I am in or approaching menopause and what can I do about it?
