VanillaSkyGirl 6 #26 September 5, 2008 QuoteNow I can understand her MOM being too old, the whole no-mini-skirts-after-35 rule I'm 37, and have been giggling at your posts, Sarah. You are SO young! Regarding minis, I actually stopped wearing mini-skirts for a casual look when I was in my mid/late-20s because I wanted to appear more professional. (I've always looked younger than my age.) That said, I would still occasionally wear a mini-skirt or mini-dress for a special evening occasion or fun party as long as it looks flattering and/or tasteful. To me, mini-skirts look dated, but pencil skirts (fitted to my knees) look sexy, so I prefer wearing the latter. Sarah, these "clothing rules" are personal and should not be viewed as rules. I feel that you should wear what makes you feel good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LisaH 0 #32 September 5, 2008 You look great in that outfit. It's not very mini. Micro minis are the ones I don't care for. A woman is never too old for a mini, as long as the presentation looks good.Be yourself! MooOOooOoo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
