Many of us (those over 40, WAY over 40 or hovering near 40) are quite confused about how we should present ourselves. We're unsure about the kind of image we are projecting and whether or not we are correct as we try to conform to current fashions. Despite what you may have seen on the streets, the following combinations DO NOT go together and should be avoided:
1. A nose ring and bifocals
2. Spiked hair and bald spots
3. A pierced tongue and dentures
4. Miniskirts and support hose
5. Ankle bracelets and corn pads
6. Speedo's and cellulite
7. A belly button ring and a gall bladder surgery scar
8. Unbuttoned disco shirts and a heart monitor
9. Midriff shirts and a midriff bulge
10. Bikinis and liver spots
11. Short shorts and varicose veins
12. Inline skates and a cane
And last, but not least . . . my personal favorite:
13. Thongs and Depends

As one of those in the "in crowd", I resemble those remarks!
It's that whole 'mutton dressed as lamb' scene. I worry that I wont know when to opt for tweed skirts and twin sets!(not to forget the comfortable shoes)
Oh hey! You want to tell the one about the midriff shirts and midriff bulge to some of the over 20s too!
a. I agree - Some of the younger crowd could use some fashion tips too.
