Dress Code
Any of us over 50, or on the way to 50, are quite confused about how we
should present ourselves. We're unsure about the kind of image we are projecting and whether or not we are correct as we try to conform to current fashions. Despite what you may have seen
on the streets, the following combinations DO NOT go together and should
be avoided:
- A nose ring and bifocals
- Spiked hair and bald spots
- A pierced tongue and dentures
- Miniskirts and support hose
- Ankle bracelets and corn pads
- Speedos and cellulite
- A belly button ring and a gall bladder surgery scar
- Unbuttoned disco shirts and a heart monitor
- Midriff shirts and a midriff bulge
- Pierced nipples that hang below the waist
- Bikinis and liver spots
- Short shorts and varicose veins
- Inline skates and a walker
And the ultimate "Bad Taste" in fashion for the "Older Folks":
- Thongs and Depends
Please keep these basic guidelines foremost in your mind
when you shop. Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here,
we might as well dance.
