I couldn't resist beginning this forum. After all the talk about teen's fashions, I thought it was time to talk about boomer fashions.

Are you still fashion conscience?

Where do you buy your clothes?

Dotsie,
I am a snob I buy them at Talbots a lot and on sale and the talbots outlet . Lord and Taylor , etc. Love Lord and Taylor .

I buy a lot of my clothes from Talbots because they have the best selection of petites in town. I also like Ann Taylor. But I do shop for bargains and hardly ever pay full price for clothes unless it is something very special that I think won't last long, but that's a rare occasion.

I am absolutely still fashion conscious! Although, what we've seen in the last few years being touted as 'fashion', has left me cold. Fall/Winter 2005 has been a bit better, and Spring/Summer 2006 is looking even more so. Thankfully, we'll be seeing a more high-waisted look back at the fashion forefront. I am so sick of nothing but low-rise everything! Finally, the fashion gurus are now voicing what we women have been saying all along...The low-rise fashions do not look good on the majority of women.

I shop everywhere, in all manner of stores and shops. It may take me a bit longer to find what I want, but, for mature women, that's just the way of it. I want clothes that look good on me, on my body-shape. I've found pieces I love at high-end department stores, and at my local discount shack.

I accidently bought some low rise jeans and I'm constantly pulling them up! I'm glad to hear higher waists are going to be back in style.

DaisyGirl ,
I love Ann Taylor , but haven't bought anything in there yet . I am glad I have another Talbots fan here . I did get a pair of jeans last year strength and fit light a glove . Well almost .


Thanks Dotsie this is a fun topic .

I find alot of value from Romans and sometimes Lane Bryant catalogs. I have found some adorable, youngish flirty blouses etc. at stores here called Ritzy Rags and Lee Fashions. They cater to older gals but have younger looking bright, sexy styles. I love the beaded dresswear.

I hit the racks at Casual Corner, during the Christmas season.

They had a going out of business sale, everything was 60-75% off.
Walked out with two big bags...what deals.

Absolutely, love Old Navy stretch jeans...

Have a hard time finding clothes I like, so I normally let the clothes find me...by going store to store.

After losing 60 lbs. I don't know where to go.
I try on a size that I think will fit, and it's to big! That's great.
But.....I get so tired of trying to figure out what size I wear.
I hate to shop for clothes and always have.
Now shoes.......that's another subject!
