Pig Tails, short shorts , micro minis
- I would have to say women should never wear pig tails, micro mini skirts, or super short shorts!! Just looks bad. Went to a meeting the other day where a woman in her late 30's had on pig tails....so sad. I have often seen same woman in short shorts. I guess she doesn't have any true friends. I would hope that if I looked sad in something my true friends would tell me.

wrinkly cleavage
- I was at an almost all-male work meeting years ago. There was an otherwise attractive woman there who had once had a great set of boobs. Unfortunately, she was unaware that the skin over her boobs had grown fine and wrinkly with age. At one point, she was making a strong statement, leaning her crossed arms on the meeting table, resting her boobs on her arms, in a low-cut, cleavage-baring, black fitted body shirt. The smooth black shirt served only to highlight the mass of wrinkles at her cleavage. I felt so sorry for her.

chitter chatter...
- No plastic surgery. Wear the right size, live your age; celebrate feminine beauty; don't try to look sexy... Don't dress for your girlfriends and, please, use make-up sparingly and only for special occasions...

Grown Women Should....
- Grown Women should never wear those horrible "maternity" shirts that made their appearance a few years ago and have unfortunately never left. And if any of you actually FIND shirts that do not have that expectant mother look - call me OK? I was so happy to see all the comments! I sometimes feel so alone in the fashion department. Where are the cottons and linens? Why is everything made from thin stretchy fabrics that are petroleum based?

I completely disagree
- I am a member of my local Roller Derby league, and the fashion of our women ranges from conservative to outlandish. All our girls are hot! These rules are just another attempt from the prudish and bitter telling others how they should behave. Shame on you.

It never works
- "They are wearing way too much makeup, tops too low or tight, wanting to dress like and act like an 18 year old. If they only knew they are losing their childhood years, the best of them. There are some very trendy clothes for young girls and accessories to go with them that they should perhaps consider." First you bag women for 'trying to look younger' then you bag the teenagers for trying to look older? Which is it? Are sexy clothes for younger women, or for older women. I say if you are over the legal age, and you feel good in it wear it. If people are giving you funny looks, consult a fashion advisor to make sure your clothes aren't clashing. Don't worry about being perpendicular to tradition.

over rated
- Women of all ages should be able to wear what they feel good in. Yes, it should fit and cover you, but why can't women over age 40 or 50 wear minis if they look good in them? The new 30 is 40. I know lots of women in thier 40's and 50's who can get away with fashions my mother would never wear at the same age. Don't let the "fashion police" stop you if you look good, feel good and it's a good fit. Go for it girl and women!!

- Women of all ages should dress appropriately for their body type and age. Wear the right size, don't show cleavage (unless at a club),or don't dress so that your youth wanting its clothes back.

Collars make a difference...
- Ive seen some unfortunate women wearing peter pan collars...with lace. Th@ might have worked for little girls, or Queen Elizabeth I but not for us! Flattering necklines w/a minimal amount of embelishment r the most flattering. Also, I thought I'd bring out th@ wearing a shirt w/places you've been to emblazoned on the front in rinestones is a dead give away of grandma-ness. Best peice of advice I have ever gotten : There's nothing sexier than a woman who knows her age, can find the balance w/out looking like a hooker or an old lady in tween clothing, & still be natural & confident. Nothin' sexier. I'm 19 & my boyfriend loves how I dress classier than my age requires &yet, I still pull it off. He also loves the fact th@ I wear a little makeup &still look good. He says "the best beauty isn't obvious. It's natural beauty that get's a man every time." I geuss he likes the idea th@ after we're married he wont have any nasty surprises the nxt morning.he wont wake up nxt to a gorgon!

Jealous?!?
- Yeah, that's right! In this day and age, what right do we have to tell anyone what to/not to wear? Jeans with heels? Sure. Mini-skirt? If you got the legs for it, why not! I am sick and tired of reading the posts that do nothing but criticize what other women wear. For Pete's sake, if you want to see something a grown woman should not wear, look at some of this so-called couture "creations" (there are links to many right here, in Women's Fashion. Now THAT's something you can rave about but I would not be caught dead in. I'd agree with some of the posters here who said if a woman has a great figure and a pretty face to go with that, she can pull off pretty much any look - even the un-tucked shirts under sweaters (let's dispense with the old-fashioned "tuck it in" thingy, shall we). It is the ones that are obese and wearing clothes 4 sizes too small, now that is disgusting. Other than that, I'd say live and let live. Even in real fur!

Old habits due die
- Back in my teen years (I won't tell how long) my grandmother taught us girls that a grown woman never goes out of the house without her hose, heels, and a nice dress. Too bad that old habit had to die a rough death. It's time for us to look glamorous again!!!!!!!

Anything that makes the butt look bigger
- Baggy pants or flaired skirts. Also most women don't have attractive knees. Most should be covered with something. The lower part of the leg is usually sexy as long as it's not oversized.
