Adorable on her. Frumpy on a 47 mother of 2.
Unless that mother has the same build as the model (spoiler: I don't)
Most women can't pull this off.
Well fat women, sure. Fat women can't pull anything off though. Sorry the truth hurts.

Dear Capri Pants,
This isn't about the fashion industry or trends. It's about self-awareness and self-respect, not money or labels. Frumpy is having so little self awareness that you have no idea what looks good on you or flatters what you've got. You certainly don't seem to care about how you look. Am I going to congratulate you for that? No. I am going to continue to advocate for all people - men and women and everything in between - to wear clothes that fit properly. We would ALL be more Comfortable walking around in pajamas and Slippers, but then what would separate us from the gamers who never leave the basement or the stoned college frat boy. Tuck your shirt in and have some self respect.
Sincerely,
Your better self

Jcrew on a beautiful woman is anything but frumpy.
J. Crew isn't the most feminine store. Lack of femininity denotes frump.
