How to dress for your age
I was visiting with my nieces last night (who keep me young) and we were talking about clothes as usual. They did the 4 am mad rush for Black Friday sales. As we were speaking we touched on the subject of what’s appropriate for girls and women as we age. I quietly sat there wondering am I dressing appropriate for my age?
I am and always have been the classic style person. I like to mix classic with a couple of trendy items. I like the refined looks of J. Crew, Club Monaco, French Connection and from time to time Max Studio. My nieces love Urban Outfitters, Free People, and American Eagle. After having kids, my body has changed and I am more conscious of how I dress because I do want to be fashionable and have my twelve-year-old son be proud to introduce me as his mother.
I enjoy clothes as much as my nieces do. They are still trying to figure out who they are. For now they can have fun and be daring with their clothes. I am a mother, career woman and finally comfortable with myself . I know exactly what’s right for me. I see women who wear what their daughters wear and my opinion is, if you are comfortable and you have the body to wear it – you rock.

Hi Betsy,
They were the ones who developed Anthropologie and sold that company. They began the Free People brand shortly after. The brand is targeted to a younger female audience.
