I feel old!

Just watched The Hit List (bloody love this show) and Jedward look exactly the same as they did 15 years go on The X Factor.
I, on the other hand, alas, do not!

What makes you feel old?

The wrinkles appearing on my hands and under my eyes.

I’ve always said that “youth and beauty are not achievements”

Then I actually started to age and I’m struggling to come to terms with it.

I’m hoping I’ll just get used to it.

My face.

I feel ridiculous saying this because I'm not someone particularly interested in fashion but it's actually deciding on what clothes to wear that makes me feel old.

It was easy for my mothers generation : when you got to a certain age you started wearing " older people's clothes". People don't do that now.

But a lot of what is considered fashionable today I find downright hideous and the things I do like just don't seem to fit or look right on my ageing body with it's aging face.
