Is There an Age Limit on Wearing Short Dresses?

I was in San Francisco this weekend with my husband.  We checked into our Union Square hotel and headed straight to Nordstrom's.  While my husband sat in a comfortable chair, I tried on a beautiful Robert Rodriguez belted, twist silk dress -- short.  It hit me about mid-thigh -- officially short.  I borrowed a pair of Cole Haan black patent-leather pumps and walked out to get my husband's reaction.  He was speechless -- he clearly liked how I looked.  The short dress flowed effortlessly over my curves and the pumps stretched my leg muscles upward as I glided across the room like a model.  I looked HOT!  And I felt HOT.  I wanted the dress.  And then I thought, "...am I too old to wear a dress this short?"  And I talked myself out of buying it.  I've been thinking about the dress ever since. 

Did I make the right decision? 

I'd like to know what you think.

Can a woman over 50 wear a short dress that hits mid thigh, even if she has the legs to pull it off?

What would you have done?

This isn't me -- this is a young model wearing the same dress....

Clean Out Closet Clutter -- Organize Your Life!

I devoted my newsletter recently to the concept of cleaning out your closet.  How many of you actually did it?  If you haven't done it yet, ask yourself --

Why Not?

Because it is hard to let go!

I know it is difficult to get rid of clothes that you purchased and had a good reason for the purchase at the time.  It's the money you spent, the time, the memory of wearing the clothing, the attachment, etc., etc.

I had a girlfriend come over to my house and help me remove the clothes I never wear.  I'm going to sell the clothes at a local resale shop.  Do I miss the clothes?

Not one bit!!

Why?

Because I wasn't wearing the clothes anyway!!! 

So, start today, make a plan, set a date and time, grab a girlfriend or boyfriend who will tell you the truth, and

Just Do It!!!
