My Style

To be truthful my style leans towards looking youthful
That is, My outward style tends, to follow current trends
The junior Department still calls and rants-"check out these wild leopard pants!"
As 'what NOT to wear' dictates...."juniors is NOT a forties scene,
At your age, you should NOT be wearing bohemian tops and low rise jeans"!
I guess I should be dressed in those, lady like 'age appropriate' clothes
which I think make me look dumpy and overall make me feel frumpy.
Considering I'm not very tall and lucky that my ass is still small
I don't see why I should StOP wearing stylish pants or a trendy top?
Or wearing cool boots with a sexy high heel, If ME, is how they make me feel?
AS lines form daily on my face... 'My style' may need to acquire a touch of grace
But, I'm just NOT ready to let aging cast me the dowdy curse... 'cause I just filled-up my new funky fall purse!

paisley said...

well since i cannot stand "what not to wear"... i will continue to wear the "wrong clothes" just knowing it makes stacy and clintons skin crawl!!!! hope you will too!!!!!!!

That's right, you wear those low riding jeans and whatever else makes you feel good. I'm in my forties and I wear my 23 year old's clothes (well maybe not all of them). Enjoy life!

You go girl...if you still got it flaunt it!! I looked at all my girlfriends standing in a parking lot chatting one day, they are all youthful in style and demeanor and I am so proud of that! There are some frumpy looking thirty year old's that don't look as good as my goddess girls do! Dressing well takes away from the age!! I think you're awesome and damn....so is that funky purse. I love it..!!

Love and big hugs Sherrie
