The advice is great if you want to blend in with the nearest piece of cardboard.

OF COURSE we should wear styles that fit well. We should have been wearing styles that fit well for the past 50 years. Is there ever an age when people should wear styles that don't fit well???

As for the recommended daytime colors "Softer neutrals — navy, charcoal, black and khaki" -- 3 out of the 4 make me look like I'm attending my own funeral. (I look great in black, however.)

To me, this is another piece of lame advice from the "don't make waves" fashion police.

And what's wrong with a little bit (NOT plunging!!) cleavage? It draws the focus of attention away from our expanding mid-section.



Well meredith everytime I look at beige (but funky) dress pants,...I just drop it.... Warm light beige is a colour that's great if paired with an edgier top or bottom in style or colour. HOw bout call it "honey-coloured". ...I do love it with a warm creme colour. If a person has dark hair, light or dark skin, it works well on many women.

ANd grey...I have very little of...except for light silver or a blue summery grey to contrast with a jewel tone colour. Grey is not good on yellow toned skin.. It actually worries me that when I go grey-haired, I will have wardrobe colours that won't look well. And I truly don't want to start colouring my hair.
