Right so we should stop wearing...

[Fashionotista]

...floral midi/maxi dress with white trainers because it’s ubiquitous, a ‘middle aged women’s summer uniform’ (can’t forget the cropped denim jacket)

Beige, cream, camels any neutrals because it’s dull and bland.

Skinny jeans are out, they are not trendy.

What else should we stop wearing?

i dress to suit my figure and my pocket

What else should we stop wearing?

Weight of other people's opinions.

I've been a recycled teenager for about 40 years now and going to keep wearing my Doc Martens, with dresses, short long and inbetween, demin jackets and blue hair until I drop dead.
This is me and my one life and I've been the same except for about twenty different hair colours over the years, each more colourful than the last😁

Trouser or skirt co-ords? Nobody’s child is my current obsession. A gingham skirt and cropped top has been sitting in my basket for days. I’m just not sure how cropped the top is and how my not flat belly would look.

yes i always wore flats and a woman at work, said flats were frumpy
i have never forgotten that
so i am wearing the weight of others opinions, very good phrase

i would like to wear pretty dainty sandals but they would probably a) hurt b) break

Nobody’s child

This

I think it's less to do with the actual clothing and more an unpleasant shorthand for being older/fatter.

A willowy 20 something wafting about in a shapeless linen sack and sandals wouldn't be called frumpy, they'd probably be a fashion influencer. A short overweight 50yo in the same would get the frumpy label.

@Willmafrockfit

why on earth would they break??

@LuckySantangelo35
judging by my past experience

This 100%

@Willmafrockfit

thats unfortunate! They really shouldn’t! Maybe try again.

I’m sure no one said we shouldn’t wear floral maxis, just that they are dull - they are dull, but so are shirts and jeans but you don’t see men worrying about that do you?

Bog average clothes are fine, not everyone is super into fashion and there is a lot else to think about.

There is nothing anyone on this thread can do to convince me those are leggings on the bare arsed lady on the 1st page!

@Maireas

no it doesn’t

it means it’s old fashioned and not chic

But polyester is foul, feels disgusting and doesn't let air through, and static.

@LuckySantangelo35 but they still hurt

I’ve had a dream like that before 😱

Ha! I bought the jacket back in March.

Another vote from me. I cant believe people put this much thought into what others think about what they wear. Sounds horribly stressful. I wear what I like. I dress for me, not other people's opinions.

That was about the arse out pic.

I love a floral midi dress with trainers and denim jacket so I shall keep wearing mine thanks.

Can’t tell if this is a sarcastic post or not 🤣♥️

@Willmafrockfit

at first maybe. But your feet do get used to them. That’s what I find. I think it’s good for our feet to be able to breathe and not be in closed shoes all the time
