I saw a lady the other morning who made me take stock of my current fashion state of affairs. She was quite a bit older than me with white hair and was impeccably dressed. Not that "good for someone older" more like "better than anyone half her age in a hundred mile radius". Including me. I was wearing my hideous work trousers and just felt a bit crap.
So I made a decision then and there. And here are my aims:
I will only keep and buy clothes that I really love. (The work trousers are out.)
I will not leave the house unless I have made an effort.
I will not leave the house if I am not happy with what I am wearing.
I will not make do.
I will dress for myself and not based on anyone else's expectations or judgements.
I will be comfortable being overdressed for the occasion.

And on another note, these pictures of glamorous older ladies come from the lovely blog Advanced Style, which is well worth a look.
