Dear women over the age of 20

Somebody needs a visit from Stacy and Clinton.

Ooh, me! ME! I want to go on that damn show but I guess I'm not cooky enough. :<

Buy clothes that have instructions on them about how to not anger you, and you will be much loved

I don't buy clothes for other people, I buy them for me. If I like it, I wear it,. Screw what other people think.

Amen! Like I said, if someone has a problem with it, either go buy my clothes for me or stfu...

that's how I feel, hence my lime green jeans! from the JUNIORS department, and on clearance lol

I consider it an NSV that I was able to purchase three button-up shirts from Aeropostale the other day while out shopping with my soon-to-be 14-year-old daughter. Size medium. HOLLLLLAAAAA! I don't care where my clothes come from or what section of the store - if they fit me and look good, I'm buying 'em! All of my 20s I was fat and stuck at Lane Bryant. So bring on the cute clothes already! Ohhh, and I recently discovered I can wear a sz S or M at the Buckle. And while 90% of the styles there I'd never wear, I did manage to find $300 worth of shirts that I WILL! *happy wiggle*

If the 'women's section' where you're shopping is anything other than great you're in the wrong d@mn shop! Is there only one shop??? Go somewhere else, stop trying to be a teenager.

The majority of JC penney's and Kohls "women's section" simply suck. Sorry, I have no desire to be a vera wang model.
Penney's does have a small section of really cool clothes, but most of it are basics such as plain t'shirts and sweaters.
There are some cute blouses there, but it's a HUGE hit and miss.

Kohls, 85% of their clothes just don't suit me and my jeans and t'shirt fabulousness and the occasional nights I dress up for the husband.

I quite bothering with Macy's and every other store years ago.

I shop in Brown Thomas and BT2, women's section, the clothes are hot, they're not frumpy and they're cut for actual women's bodies. I'm sure there's some equivalent over there!

whose business is it where people buy their clothes or what section they buy them in? If it fits and you like it..BUY IT. Sure, it may look silly to other people but if the person wearing it is comfortable and likes how it looks then what's the problem? No matter what you wear there will always be SOMEBODY that has an issue with it. My step mom is 45 and buys pretty much all of her clothing from the juniors section. It used to bother me (mainly because my guy friends would brag about how hot she is) but now I'm like, "does SHE like it? does SHE feel confident wearing it? Yes? Okay then." Who am I to tell her what to wear?" I'll leave that part to my Dad...LOL JK

Let's lift each other up rather than bring each other down, shall we?

Yeah, how about no. I shop in the juniors to score on cute seasonal dresses and skirts, and I don't plan on stopping just because I'm over that ~magical~ age of 20. Thanks though!

I'm still a little confused as to why, at age 24 (and still a graduate student at that), it is more appropriate for me to dress like a 50 year old than an 19 year old.

When will they come out with the 20s-30s section??? I mean, there are a few woman stores that I like that have a younger target (White House/Black Market and Express come to mind) but that is a rarity. I will stick to Jrs to fill out my casual wardrobe and trust my judgement to not buy something inappropriate for my age.

At 6' tall, I've never been fortunate enough to fit in the cheaply made jeans - they were always high-waters on me. I shop at Buckle, and while some of the designs on the back pockets get a little over the top, the fit and structure of the jeans is outstanding.

I believe there are exceptions to the rule, such as petite women, but I think even they need to be cognizant of the "look" of the jean/clothing. I can always tell when my 4'11" co-worker is wearing junior's clothes because they look like they were designed for a teenager, not a 40-something to wear to the office.

And for those of you taking offense, GTFO. You know what the OP is referring to as I imagine every single one of you has scoffed over a woman's outfit not fitting properly in the past. If you haven't, I commend you for being better than I, but I doubt that's the case.

I'm 27 and wear some juniors styles. I'm a student and broke- I buy what fits me appropriately, fits my budget and is my style. I've always tended to lean to brighter loud patterns and styles- but when i was 345lbs I couldn't find any clothes that fit my personality. Now that I'm almost to my goal weight and look decent in cuter clothes I'm gonna live it up- and I do tend to dress for the occasion- I have skirt and pant suits in my closet too Each junior section is different in stores and it simply depends on the style and cut and body shape.

Some juniors clothes are classy enough for older women- some aren't.... but I feel you- yesterday was 1st day back to school and this girl was squeezing herself into itty bitty booty shorts- muffin top and *kitten* crack hanging out as she walked.... definitely someone who needs to go up a few sizes... lol

i shop in the juniors department for certain clothes. i also own designer clothing. i mix and match clothes all the time and i love my style. i think if you know how to put an outfit together and you dress for your body type- it doesn't matter what department you shop in- womens or juniors.
