IT'S NOT EASY BEING A SOUTHERN BELLE-EVEN AFTER YEARS OF PRACTICE!

WHAT TO WEAR????

I go through the SAME dilemma every morning before heading out to work. WHAT TO WEAR! I suppose there is some thought that I should dress professionally---you know suited up. I do occasionally like to wear that suit---but I wore suits for YEARS!---ENOUGH ALREADY!

I have been fortunate-so far-with my clients and worked places where no one is dressy dressy---so slacks--even jeans are fine. The problem is what is offered out there in the shops! There seems to be very little on the shelves and rods for a woman -my age-. You know something that is cute-looks good on-and doesn't make one look like a little old lady!

NOW--there are mornings that I dress and look in the mirror and think---

GET OVER IT---YOU ARE NOT A YOUNG WOMAN ANYMORE

AND THEN --THERE ARE THE DAYS THAT I LOOK IN THE MIRROR at the tights- and long form fitting tight---and wonder just WHAT do I do for a profession?

SO how does one dress their age---still look stylish and well dressed and

NOT look like a HOOCHY Momma!

It is tough mainly because the fabrics are so creepy! Clothes just don't feel real to me sometimes! I don't know how to explain it.....I loved the clothes in the early 60's. Won't ever have pretty full skirts and sweater sets like those again!
