    And how is it your business? I'm almost 42 and I still wear the hell out of cargo shorts and flip flops. If someone doesn't like it then they can avert their eyes

    That's pretty much my husbands summer uniform. Nothing wrong with it.

    Where I live, just about everyone has their nose in their phone, so they wouldn't even notice what brand you are wearing or from where.

    Who cares? Shop wherever you find clothes that make you feel good !

    pretty much this, unless they don't sell your size there lol.. but I shop at places that sell the shoes and clothes I want to wear whether its walmart or Journey's at the mall. to each their own is my motto.

    As a grown adult I reserve the right to shop for clothes in any store that actually carries clothing that fits my giraffe body.

    I'm petite so I've shopped at those stores. I bought a pair of dark grey skinny jeans at Forever 21 last year for $10 on sale. They were perfect. I won't buy clothes that look "too young", but sometimes the pants are a little shorter without being a "petite" and I have longish legs for a short gal. Some of the pettite women's pants look like "mom jeans."

    Banana Republic has a pretty good (but small) petite section. I like their clothes. I get jeans, other pants, shorts, dresses. I know people complain they do some vanity sizing, but they do sell a size 00p (and that fits me great). I buy fitted cotton/spandex t-shirts from bluenotes because they are small and not too long (I also get knit tops there). I shop for blouses at H&M. I shop at American Eagle, those clothes fit me great. Lululemon has sweatshirts and jackets that are small enough in the waist, and fit well. I also shop at Asian stores which run very small, so it's much easier to find just about anything I need in a size that will fit me. But, in general many of the mainstream stores run too big, and the clothing does not fit right. Sometimes juniors sizes are not shaped curvy enough between the waist and hips. Finding a tailored jacket that fits my body is a big challenge. But, there is also taking things to a tailor. Some of the more expensive stores run small, but I am not a big spender on clothing. Most stores do not go smaller than a size two, and that is usually too big these days.

    The bikini fits her the way it is intended to fit. That is the style.

    Depends how old you are and what you're combining it with.

    Completely unacceptable.

    Once you turn 30, you must wear mom jeans. And if you're 40, mom jeans and gauchos. And turtlenecks.


    Them's the rules.


    I'm 43 and I have no idea what gauchos are.:blushing: Where, in my life, have I gone wrong???:sad:

    Dang you're lucky...that must have happened between '70 and '71 lol


    I was born in 1970 - a little too young, at the time, to notice the latest fashion trends, I guess. haha
