Re: I Have a Semi Serious Question

@monicakm I don't generally read your makeup posts as I'm not into makeup much but this caught my eye.

 

If YOU love it, for pete's sake WEAR IT! Who cares what anyone thinks. Maybe your DH meant it in a loving way!  Enjoy the bee-jeezus out of it!

Re: I Have a Semi Serious Question

I'm pretty sure surr this is someone making joke.  It's ridiculous.  But in the off chance that it isn't a joke, just wear the top of you like it.  It sounds very pretty, very seasonal.  You daughter and husband were obviously paying you a compliment.  Foxy meaning pretty.

@monicakm  - now that we've all decided for you that you should wear it.  Tell us what makeup you will use to bring out the Fall tones when wearing this top.

Not a matter of life or death but serious (to me) none the less.  I have a beautiful fall top.  The background is tan/light brown with light rose colored leaves and a light rose colored FOX.  It's very much an Autumn shirt and I love it.  Most Autumn colored shirts are not colors I look best in but this one is different.  But feel self-conscience wear it.  The very first thing both my husband and daughter (seen for the first time separately) said is something to the effect of me being a "foxy" lady.  OMGosh!  In what world would I ever consider myself foxy???!!!  There's not one!  So now I'm embarrassed to wear this beautiful shirt in fear that I'm broadcasting to the world that I consider myself foxy Smiley Surprised  If you saw a woman with this shirt, would you think to yourself that she thinks she's "foxy"?  I've had the shirt since a season or two before Covid and have only worn it maybe 5 times.


@monicakm @Foxy is just a compliment that you look good in the top. Wear it.

@teganslaw  I love sequin sneakers! I have  a white pair of sequin Keds sneakers with ribbon laces and they really sparkle in the sun.  Your gold sneakers sound great!

@monicakm   Life is too short.  The colors sound lovely, and yes, I would like to hear the make up you would choose for this top.  Live it up, foxy lady.  Wear it and enjoy.

Re: I Have a Semi Serious Question

@monicakm  I think your husband and daughter meant foxy as a compliment- as in beautiful, captivating, fun.  I think they used a play on words by calling you "foxy" to bring up that there is a fox on your top but also that you're "foxy" aka pretty and stylish.  Your top sounds really cute Smiley Happy

I'm 64 and I'm definitely at the age where I do me, within reason, and to heck like anybody else thinks.  But I'm pretty conservative so it's not a stretch.

To an extent and in certain situations I think it's a valuable trait to care what others think about you.  I feel I'm respecting myself and others if I do my best to be my best and appear my best.  That can be taken to an extreme and that's when it's not healthy. But I would absolutely die if someone thought I considered myself foxy, unless it was my husband and he does LOL thanks for everyone's input.
