What is Age Appropriate Dress Anyway?
I’ve been surfing the other fashion blogs and I enjoy
reading the viewers comments. But lately I’ve been reading and seeing the same
commentary of “that’s not age appropriate”.
So, I want to investigate this a little further. What does this phrase
mean exactly? In my opinion, if you are a 45 year old woman and you have the
body of Evelyn Lozado (Basketball Wives) then rock the hell out of your bandage
dress with you boobs pushed up like Playmates (Playboys). More power to you “IF” you still have the body
for it.

Appropriate Dress- suitable or proper dress for the
circumstances
Ladies, if you are going to work, you will dress accordingly
to your profession no matter what your age is.
For example, you work a 9-5 business casual office job. So, your
wardrobe for work should consist of trousers, tailored denim (no rips and distressed
looks), blouses or nice tops (no plunging necklines), skirts (not tight or mini’s),
dresses (no mini’s or tight), No Cleavage, no mid-drift showing, and no
leggings with your butt exposed like you are going jogging.
However, if this person wants to go out with friends or hit
the club then she does not have to wear a blouse and trouser pants. Regardless
of her age, she can wear a short skirt because now the occasion and environment
is the proper place for this image.
YOU CAN’T WEAR THAT!
But who can really argue what is age appropriate dress? Of
coarse we know that if you are 65 years old, you probably won’t be rocking a
cat suite because other issues come with old age that prevent people from being
able to fully function the way they need to. As long as the occasion matches
the way the person is dressed, age appropriate dress should not matter.

YOU ARE STILL YOUNG BUT LEGAL
Some people feel like if they are in their 30’s they have to
dress like they shop at Chico’s or Catherine’s, but this is not true. You can still
dress with sex appeal; isn’t this why are parents told us to wait until we
where grown to dress a certain way (high heels, boobs, tight skirts)? NOW IS
THE TIME. Dress however you want as
long as you are grown with no rules.
GIRDLES & BRAS
The only thing that bothers me about women and their dress
issues are FOUNDATION & SUPPORT. This is referring to a girdle/spanx and a
bra. PLEASE LADIES, wear a bra. No one likes saggy boobs. They make people sad L. Saggy boobs are
sleepy (that’s why you take your bra off at night). Happy boobs are awake and
have support (the bra). Plus, wearing a bra prevents your boobs from
pre-maturely sagging. A girdle is needed to help SMOOTH your body out and
help define your shape. It gets rid of those lumps and bumps that most women
have. So don’t be afraid to buy one; I have plenty.

Tell me how do you feel about age appropriate dress.

You can wear your fitted hat with a classic white tee and jeans or switch it up with some harem pants or a plaid shirt. Check out this look below.
