DRESS YOUR AGE! SAYS WHO?

I’m so bored of hearing the phrase “dress your age!” It’s never been aimed at me personally, but who gives anyone the right to tell you what you should and shouldn’t wear!

Surely, it’s a matter of common sense to wear clothes that flatter your best bits and disguise the less attractive ones, rather than being  a matter of obligation that if you’re past 40 you shouldn’t wear a mini skirt or if you’re past 60 you shouldn’t wear a swimming costume on the beach?

OK, I know there are some people who wear totally inappropriate, tasteless, clothes – I watch Jeremy Kyle (ahem) - but If you look good in it and feel comfortable in it, go ahead and wear it. Just make sure you take a good look in the mirror first and if you are still unsure whether or not you look plain stupid in an outfit, just ask a friend who will give you an honest, no holds barred opinion. There really are no rules to be followed.

I’m 44 and I’ve got no intention of turning to twinsets and pearls – not till I’m at least 80. OK, I doubt I’ll be wearing tight jeans and killer heels by then but for now, I’ll wear what I choose and if you don’t like it, tough!

Check out these images currently circulating showing how NOT to do fashion!!! Thankfully these are the exceptions… Seriously  ladies, we really do not want to see your flabby bits, cellulite, boobs, bums or naff tattoos. Friends, if you ever see me looking like one of these Walmart women, please, please slap me hard!
