Fifty and Fabulous
Quote From: big2199Is it possible she feels she has lost out on time meaning her youth. Some women started their families at a very young age, and now that their children are growth they want to explore the time capsule they once attain- their youth. Some women may start trying to fit into their daughter's clothing, or may find herself shopping in the same department. Some women may have the attitude of "they still have it, why not flaunt it" especially if they are fit. Some women may feel dressing younger makes them feel good, and look better. It could be a self esteem problem. It could be a numerous of things that make some women like Donna dress and act like she is in her 20's and not her 50's. But, the true question is how should a women of any age dress? Can you really put an age behind fashion with today's trends? My personal feelings of someone in their 50's they should dress classic such as Audrey Hepburn, or Rudy Dee. If you look at their old movies they were young, but the styles in the 50's,and 60's were very classic. The fashion world should bring those styles back. There are a lot of issues we can discuss about why women dress younger than they are, but if a women of any age is not comfortable in their own skin they are going to be very confuse when they get to the clothes rack, unfortunately their minds are not too far behind. This is a job for Robin, so Dr. Phil better leave this one alone.
IT'S A WOMEN THING................................. Smile Phil I am 56 years old. I have always been fit and active. And no children. The past 10 years I have wanted to get divorced. Always thought about it, went to counceling and as the years have gone by I find my husband and I are a generation apart. He is 11 years older than I, is retired, and plays a little golf now and then. That is good for him. I look at it as he worked hard to be where he is now. I bitched about him not helping out around the house, outside the house, participating in walking dogs. I do everything for everybody. And then, one morning I woke up and said to myself I have to stop trying to change him - So, I went back to school last year and will graduate next month as an LPN. I have a job waiting. Sometimes it takes awhile to gain inner strength after being married for 25 years.
