I should have alsxo mentioned Josie Maran.  A week or so ago she came out with such a low top it also was gross....granted she doesn't dress very conservatively but  this time she was even too much for herself.


The few times I have seen Josie she is always dressed like she is going to a club lol.

@kaydee50  As a self respecting, independent, educated working mom and wife I am glad it is not 1953! Surely you cannot be serious. A woman could not buy a car or house without "a man", because you could not have a stupid checking account without "a man". Let's get with it.  I am not wearing a house dress, a going to town dress, church dress, dinner dress, gloves, stockings and heels. Women can wear what they want, Thank God.  Why don't people complain about what men wear, hummm?  

 

Go to the modern workplace, maybe not the large corporate Fortune 500 America but in general business dress reflects our everyday life.  So if people do not like what is worn on air, don't watch and don't buy.

Thank you! I cannot deal with women who want to keep us in the dark ages, We have worked too hard to move forward, and have yet more to do.

@ajsidney12  - I was not aware that a female could not purchase a car or open a checking account without a man in the 50's!  Omg -  I had no idea!

 A long, long time ago I was told "you are what you wear".  You don't have to spend mega bucks to look good,  I don't think I could survive in today's office  environment.  Everything is too casual.

Why would anyone want to go back to the fifties. Women wore corsets, garter belts and bras that looked like concealed weapons. It is time to move on and dress comfortably. There has to be a happy medium between wearing out of date clothes and looking like you just rolled out of bed.

@San Antonio Gal @LorelaiGilmore I had no idea myself about the money situation so many women must have faced, until someone educated me within the last few years. Just FYI it was not until 1974 when it became law that women had to have equal opportunity for checking, credit cards, and loans through lending institutions. 

 

And I agree, we have so far to go to be considered true equals (pay gaps, glass ceilings still exist in most companies, and family leave act's). So, on the occassion that someone has too tight of pants (in my opinion) or a droopy bum, I watch something else. I know I have had many a fashion accident in my days, and I was not being dressed by someone behind the scenes of a tv shopping network. They do not have the choices I do.
