[quote=Anonymous]I dress fun and have always done so! I am 51, petite, and thin. I don't have a single grey hair, so I look younger than I am (except for some face wrinkles). I also smile a lot and have an overall positive, youthful vibe. I work at a nonprofit and more on the creative side though I am an executive. My favorite color is pink and everyone knows it! I have known most of my colleagues for years and they know the quality of my work and leadership so I am not worried about being judged negatively. I have some good core staples in my closet but every season I look for cute stylish clothes that are not expensive. Kohls, Nordstrom Rack, Old Navy, Target, H&M, even Walmart. You can pick up pieces here and there and put them together to make really stylish outfits. I can fit in to juniors and even kid's clothes (size L or XL) so I even look there sometimes for cute sweaters or tops that no one even has a clue comes from the kids section. They have a lot more colors and prints than the women's section. I mix and match these pieces to make cute but always appropriate outfits. Think Kate Spade/Ann Taylor but with some youthful quirkiness mixed in. I get complements on my clothes a lot and it is genuine. I find fashion, accessories, and colors fun and love experimenting and have developed sort of my own look. I honestly don't give a fig what others think and never have. It certainly hasn't stopped me in advancing in my career. I do have an 11 year old daughter who prefers neutrals, which I completely respect, but she thinks I dress super cute too.[/quote]
