Pat on Morning Q Memorial Day

Just wanted to say, Pat looks BEAUTIFUL this morning in the white pants and pink top!  I know she always says black is her comfort zone, and I can relate, but she looks particularly nice today.  Just proves that sometimes your "comfort zone" isn't necessarily your only or best choice.

How true!  I know I am guilty of this.  I reach continually for a pair of black pants, in one form or another.  Really, they are a good choice and look good in any occasion.  But --- we should try and keep in mind that there are other choices out there!  In my older age, I have tended to go more conservative than what I would normally like, but feel "age appropriate."  I should follow my heart more and go with what I really love ---- to a reasonable degree!  LOL!

I totally agree.  I am very aware of the age appropriate issue, but sometimes I think,"if not now, when?". I always try to straddle the line between looking youthful and a bit trendy without looking like I'm wearing my granddaughters clothes.

I find it impossible sometimes (mostly in B&M stores) to find age appropriate clothes. It seems so many stores cater to the younger shorts and flip flop crowd. 

 

I usually combat that w/ neutral colors, more tailored pieces, but brighter accessories. 

 

Some women may think that's a fashion rut, but for me, I have saved a lot of $ on things I wear one season & give away because the style/color look dated.

I am very fair and have white hair. I need to wear color in order to not look like the walking dead. I love my jewel tones.
