I am over 40 and while would never wear my daughter's clothes (I don't actually have children - seems like I am still dating them! - just using an example) There is something to be said about dressing your age but at the same time being fresh, funky and fashion-forward. I see lots of women that are much older than me that seem to still be stuck in a time that was perhaps happiest for them like 1985 for example, when they were like 17, and still wearing the trends from those days. I think if you don't equate FUN with GOOFY then it will always work. I regularly wear Pucci-print tunics with capri-length leggings with crazy-a$$ wedgies and stuff. For someone whose "uniform" is twin-sets, scarves & pencil skirts with sky-high heels, that's my idea of "FUN". I think it all depends on perspective and FUN most certainly isn't just for the YOUNG!
I look at the pictures on the satorialist website and there are lots of people who are 30+ being featured. And yes they all look good, but I can't help but judge them for being at an age when they should KNOW better than to waste their time dressing up, looking fashionable for the camera especially when they're competing against much younger better looking people.
Lots to think about here... sigh, and who am I kidding? I hate the thought of getting older. I hate, hate, hate it. I tell myself I gotta accept it but it really depresses me. The older you get the less forgiving people are towards you.
