I don't think Reagan would have been so rude. Maybe you should read his letters to see what a true gentleman he was.
I'm a well-rounded 63 year old gramma. My favorite clothes come from Jones of New York and Coldwater Creek. In fact I just ordered a dressy outfit online from Coldwater Creek's outlet site. I'm anticipating a Holland American cruise to Alaska this September.
With those 2 pictures you have posted, you not only have done what your tagline suggests, you have caused my appetite to be suppressed.
Rumor has it that you made a whole outfit out of a red feather boa!
LOL, yea I looked at your FR page...Cute!
Genital warts are to make Mom and Dad mad? WTF?
Yea, that 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder line' sure makes a lot of sense, doesn't it? :-)
Man. Those folks might want to dial up their SPF numbers just a tad.
Then she should absolutely check out Liz Claiborne. She has a line for petites. I'm a petite size 4 and always find something in that line.
"One fifty-ish mother told me that her daughter got nipple rings and for a minute she thought she would too --that was one way she thought she wouldn't lose her car keys!"
No Doubt - probably because then she could have a reminder of which pocket she had dropped the keys into.
"I have seen more than one in their pj's at Walmart"
Some of the customers at Walmart stores in Florida make the bar scene in Starwars seem mild. There IS a reason that some of the customers seen in Walmart late at night are dubbed Walmartions.
I think the criticism is directed more towards those that don't got it, but flaunt it anyway.Actually, it isn't. From the article:
It’s not as if Teen Moms are physically ill-suited for their assumed wardrobes. Thanks to spectacular amounts of leisure time spent on workouts, grooming and ignoring food, Teen Moms are usually rail-thin, with cut and refined prison bodies.I don't know what she expects. Maybe women wear sweats, and t-shirts, and low-rise jeans, and flip-flops BECAUSE THEY'RE COMFORTABLE. Nobody makes clothes as cute and comfy as Abercrombie (for example) -- is one just supposed to toss it all out after a certain birthdate is reached?
You're probably too young for her....even if you're 100. :-)
In fairness, some older women may like to wear jeans because they're comfortable, rather than youthful.
Some older women actually look good in jeans, provided they have the right build and the right personality. Somebody sensual would probably wear them well.
However, the rest of us are better off putting the jeans away after a certain age. A young'un can dress sloppy & casual and look "bohemian." Someone older looks like a "bag lady."
I have a jean skirt I only wear for laundry & household chores. In public, it's a skirt with a nice top. (Also nice shoes -- no Nikes!)
Well, I do try to tell my wife that she would look good in low-rise. She does have the figure for it, but the evil looks she gives me when I suggest that idea tells me everything I need to know!
Could be. I do like older women,but not too old.
"Mutton dressed like lamb"
I adapted it with a Churchillian-type insult, designed for maximum insulting affect:
"Offal dressed like mutton."
I am grateful to hear there is some young MAN in the world now who has too much taste to even LUST AFTER some hoochie girl who makes people look at her breasts and butt by having big words splotched on them. ("Lust after" in reference to the "she's not the kind you marry [but apparently would date/boink gladly]...")
"looking like crazy for a pair of jeans that aren't low rise, but isn't having any luck."
Tell her to check the men's section. I've been wearing men's jeans for years because of the unrealistic cut of women's jeans.

Beautiful clothes if you can afford it. Better if you can find one of their stores and shop the clearance racks! One of my favorite places.
