There is hope! A picture post.

Seen on the street, and on the runway--styles that work for grown-ups.

Are you ready for some longer hemlines? OK, then.

Shirt dresses, Ray-Bans, long, loose hair (very Italian) closed-toe, non-platform pumps ... no kitten heels:


OK, maybe the anklets are a bit much. Love the coat, though. And the Cuban--not kitten--heels.


At Michael Kors. Lovely all white turtleneck and trousers. But please wear a bra.


This Fendi dress looks a little J. Jill to me ... but notice the length, the blouson cut, and the dolman sleeves. Very figure-friendly, for the right kind of figure. (Not an hourglass, alas. It would make you look shapeless. And forget it if you have a lot on your balcony; Dolman sleeves and blousons are the worst cut you can wear.)




I saved dessert for last. At Dolce & Gabanna. The perfect black suit.
