Avoid cardigans, and will,choose skirts over dresses due to fit issues, choose sleeveless over sleeved, and can no longer abide tight jeans.

Trousers which aren’t jeans.

achillesratty · 17/08/2020 23:01

Tops with frills. I have a huge chest, the last thing it needs is bunting hanging off it shouting "look here".

Tracksuit bottoms, I have proper gym leggings for exercise and would not wear tracksuit bottoms ever.

My Mum is 80 and has never owned or worn a pair of trousers or jeans.
