I went retro several years back, dressing more 50’s- a life changer for respect and attitudes. I also get a lot of compliments. I enjoy being a ray of sunshine in people’s lives, too, when I see faces light up. It’s like ministry. It’s also a refreshing change to femininity from the corporate witch, grunge or prostitute look.
That's what I feel like when I wear a suit. It's not showing off or attention getting; it adds a little brightness to peoples lives. It also gives permission to other men to, at least occasionally, not dress like little boys.
Yes! You are absolutely right. I still hold onto my jeans & tee shirts, plus shorts (appropriate for 60+), but I am enjoying the femininity of dresses and skirts more often. Hoping to inspire other women to opt for them, too.
