"Women’s spending on apparel peaks at age 44 and then enters a long slump, according to a Goldman Sachs research report. The question is, why?

Why would a woman’s enthusiasm for fashion slow just as her household income is reaching its highest level and her career and social requirements are at their most demanding?"

I think its because women begin to lose their looks and their interest in fashion drops too.[/quote]

In my case, it's partly because I am paying for college now and can't afford to shop as much these days. And it's partly because I think so much of what I see in the stores is dreck.

But I also find that I am just weary of the bullshit. Time is precious. Do I really want to spend it thinking about whether I should be wearing boot cuts or skinnies, low-cut or high-waist? What a fucking bore.

And, as the report notes, I'm at my highest level. I no longer need to dress for the job I want. I have the job I want, and I'm damn good at it, thankyouverymuch, and now I'm the one who gets to decide what I think a person in this job should look like.[/quote]

You go![/quote]
