I wear what women of any age might wear. Teens are a bit more esoteric but I do wear some junior fashions. I typically go for solid pastels and minimal jewelry. I do wear wedges from time to time with long skirts. Mostly I put on jeans or slacks with a cotton top. I'm pretty boring but I refuse to be a tom boy anymore.

This is a good place to repeat a quote that used to be my signature line here: "Dress your personality not your age." It's from a Hollywood fashion consultant named Ginger Burr. I never think much about age in dressing or choosing a hairstyle, but I do try to dress to suit the occasion and situation.

Exactly.

I dress like a techie millenial a lot of times. Sometimes I just dress casual, jeans and t shirt.

For formal events I dress like I did in my avatar (simple dress, uncomplicated necklace, simple flat shoes or pumps).

There is such a variety in what women my age wear, that dressing for my age is a fairly low bar to attain. Having said that though, I dress fairly "urban woman" (nice shirt/top, jeans, boots, handbag) every day. A few days a month i wear a skirt or a dress.

I love jackets and not a whole lot of women in Houston do.  So I don't know.

I like to dress well and as much as I'd love the mini skirts, halter tops and 5" stiletto heels and leopard prints, it just doesn't look good on me.

I dress in stylish outfits that are closer to my age category but nothing that would get me on Jerry Springer! However, to each their own look and to Hell with the fashion police!

Love,
Clare

I like it. It looks cute! When you say Grandma... I think frumpy, and that's far from it.
haha its literally my grandmothers dress tho which is why i say it!! i live for ugly old clothes. altho when i first came out it  was mostly grandmother clothes but now i ID as agender so im aiming for more of a "early 1910s working class peasant" aesthetic u feel

The one good thing about being "of a certain age" is that the sexuality component is much less.  Knee length plain skirts, usually jean, with little detailing.  Mary janes of good quality. Hey, my feet hurt from heels.  But I LOVE detailed blouses.  Anything embroidered, detailed, and/or subtly expressing of femininity.  Think "ladies who lunch."  I have always collected fabric antiques like quilts and beaded purses.  While we could never afford my tastes in new items, my wife spends weekends haunting the better 2nd hand places and boutiques.  I sometimes wear crisp, structured plain tops and sport one of my vintage sparkly costume pins, the only "sparkly" stuff I will wear.

I dress, day to day, like your well meaning but slightly naïve single friend - you know, the nice girl who can be a little bad. Just jeans or jeggings, plain top and cardie. If I want to formal up a  bit then I'll put on a jacket and dressier top. For glam it's all about black trousers, nice tops and heels. Or dresses!! I've got quite a few from demure daytime tunic tops to swishier and floatier things for the nights.

And I don't dress like your single friend. I am your single friend  ;) which is why it sort of goes together.

I'm in my 30's but I look 25 and I dress like teeny boppers of 16-18 years old  :D
