Ten on Tuesday---Ten Worst Fashion Mistakes I've Made from as always yanowhatimean.com.
This is really a hard one for someone like me who is fashion challenged to begin with.
So the Ten worst:
1. Everyday
2. Absolutely all of the time according to my 16 year old daughter.
3. Two years ago when I went to NYC with pastel sweaters and khakis in April; it turned out to be over 90 degrees and yet they were still wearing black everywhere. I had to buy a different outfit.
4. When we go to a Seattle party or event and my husband thinks we should dress up a little; we get there and realize jeans and a sweatshirt would have been just fine and we end up looking like overdressed suburbanites.
5. I had gorgeous long silky smooth hair as a teen in dry Montana; the minute we moved to humid Seattle it turned monstrous like that episode of Friends when Monica's hair turned monstrous. It has been a challenge ever since. Whenever we go to Montana, I get my old hair back.
6. In France nine years ago, pastel sweaters and pleated khakis made me stick out. They wore teeny tiny skinny black skirts and slim black pants everywhere.
7. Those big Hillary Clinton glasses--yep, I wore those my first years as lawyer in the early 80's. I thought they helped me look smart and tough in what was then a man's world but they made me look ridiculous.
8. Mini-skirts in the late 60's and early 70's. Ugh!!
9. Ripped and dirty jeans for every occasion in the mid-70's---Hmmm--perfect for Seattle anytime.
10. All of my pastel sweaters and pleated Eddie Bauer khakis. HELP!! I need a personal fashion assistant.
