AGE RESTRICTIONS

THERE ARE NONE!

It's really all in your head. And also, it is all in what the media has brainwashed us to believe from when we are kids. Of course, you aren't going to wear the same things you wore at the age of 10. What this means is that you can wear anything that brings you joy, even if others don't like it. Or don't agree with it. Who cares what anyone else thinks anyway? You are pleasing yourself and no-one else. If they don't like what you wear, it either means that they are jealous of you having your own style or they are way too scarred to try something you are wearing, but secretly love it. Society works in seriously weird ways. And if someone really hates what you wear, you don't need those types of people around you anyways! So why get so influenced by what others think?

My opinion is that you can do what you like at any age. It's your life.

And I'm not talking about being a freak (unless you want to). Or trying to always be better than others. No, I'm saying to just dress as you want and feel comfortable with the way you look and feel. And being humble about it. And if someone thinks you are dressing way too old for your age or too young, that is their problem. My motto is : "What other people think of me, is none of my business". And whoever doesn't like it, tough tits! They can hit the road.

SO WHAT DO YOU WEAR AT EACH AGE?:

At age 18-30 : Whatever you want.

At age 31-40 : What makes you feel good.

At age 41-50 : What makes you look good.

At age 51-60 : Whatever you want.

At age 61-70 : What makes you feel good.

At age 71 plus : Anything you want.

If you've worked hard for your money and you are old enough to make your own decisions on what to buy and where to buy your clothes from, then you have the right to dress as you please, at any age. I always thought you needed approval from others to dress the way you want. But all it takes is for you to stop listening to what others think.

Most of the time people will try and put you down anyway. So why listen to that in the first place? Haters are gonna hate. You don't need that in your life, for your own sanity.

I think we are harsh enough with ourselves to begin with. You don't need someone else telling you how terrible you are with your dress sense. Who needs that? You earn your stripes at any age you are at. Natural is beautiful. Plastic looking is not fantastic.

SOME OF MY FAVOURITE OUTFITS AT ANY AGE:

Feeling feminine or masculine (for men) is more important than pleasing others.
