New Look at 40?

19 replies

BB8sm8 · 20/12/2019 17:42

40 is round the corner & I feel I want to do something permanent to mark it...I have a small tattoo, I have my ears pierced, what else can I do to in terms of my appearance to mark it? I’ve been through a lot in the last few years & really want to do something fun and to celebrate the milestone in a meaningful way.

I thought your thread was about the chain store, and I only came on to say you're not too old to shop there Crown Grin

BB8sm8 · 20/12/2019 22:25

Haha I love that, perhaps I should buy a whole new wardrobe from New Look for my 40th!

@ReginaGeorgeous

IM0GEN · 20/12/2019 22:32

I agree with exercise. Take up a new sport

youvegottobekidding · 20/12/2019 22:56

I’m 46 & shop at New Look!

Tinyandpetite · 21/12/2019 00:21

I thought it was about the store as well Xmas Grin I shop there at 36, love there dresses! You could maybe get a piercing

SnowyUnicorns · 21/12/2019 15:26

41 & still like New Look Xmas Grin

Take up a new sport or activity maybe? If you feel like there's something you would always like to have tried such as diving or maybe even a particular holiday you have always longed to do, this sounds like the perfect excuse to crack on and do it.

Tinytimoteo · 21/12/2019 15:28

The shop? Thats what i thought, too.
Get your teeth done!

OhWellThatsJustGreat · 21/12/2019 15:30

Another who thought this was about the shop.

What about getting your eyebrows/eyeliner/lips tattooed on so if you wear makeup it saves you some time.

Tinytimoteo · 21/12/2019 15:49

Chemical peel? It depends on what you look like really.. ask someone who knows you or post a pic?

lifeisgoodmostofthetime · 21/12/2019 15:49

I came on to say i was 40 recently and ditched New Look years ago as the quality went to shit. A couple of beautiful Mulberry bags nicely marked my day.

scrivette · 21/12/2019 19:03

I came on to say I like New Look occasionally l!

I am in the same position as you and think I am going to have another ear piercing.
