If someone over 40 tried SOME of these things those under 30 would say - She looks like she's trying too hard. Yet if we go by the rules we grew up with we're outdated. So instead I go to a store and end up walking out because I don't know where to fit in!Fab Over 40https://www.blogger.com/profile/03788512116933371359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922232.post-24381313995088321502010-03-30T20:13:21.977-05:002010-03-30T20:13:21.977-05:00I was feeling all hip with the brown and black, bl...I was feeling all hip with the brown and black, black and navy... then it all came to a crashing halt for me.

The one about patent leather, for instance, was new to me and seems rather arbitrary; tights with open shoes just looks bad and reminds me of my mother's friends who were Ladies Of A Certain Age and condemned to wear 'supportive' leg/footwear.Defrost Indoorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00903007398523947951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922232.post-78946344310188128612010-03-30T08:48:06.931-05:002010-03-30T08:48:06.931-05:00No socks with sandals.
