[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well these styles don't necessarily mean your a "frump," but are very difficult for any but the beautiful people to pull off without looking a tad matronly:

- short-sleeve button up shirts (I think only ll bean makes these anymore so we are all probably safe)
- yes, mid calf straight or relaxed capris (not all cropped/ankle length pants)
- trend alert: the wide legged, slightly short ("summer length") pants that are everywhere now.  Impossible for all over BMI 18.
- wild ethnic prints (if they are Chicos, not your actual heritage)
- big baggy fisherman sweaters (I like this in theory, but again, only look great on a J Crew model, but not on anyone else)
- Mid-length skirts (Again, like in theory, but in reality...)

These do not look frumpy:http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/womens-collared-button-up-tops[/quote]

Most of them do. So many plaid tents![/quote]

All a matter of styling.

The plaid tent with on-trend jeans and booties is not frumpy.[/b] Shirt trends have veered to looser fits over the past few years. However, the plaid tent with sensible khakis and Clarks is frumy.[/quote]

It still looks like shit. Even on my stick-think students. I like the jeans, I like the booties, boots, hate the shirts. [/quote]
