Actual age vs apparent age

I have decided to blog on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, this means you will know when to check out my new outfits and I will know which day to make a special effort!! Only joking, of course I try and look my best most days, with the odd exception.

Now I am not known for boasting, but this week has been a particularly good week in terms of compliments. On both occasions, I considered myself dressed down ie jeans, jumper and converse trainers and related to actual age vs apparent age! I think we can deduce from this that how we dress and what we wear plays a huge part in age determination. The moral of this story is do not dress like a middle aged woman or you will look exactly that!

Here is a photo of the outfit I wore to work last week. I love this dress which I bought at the start of the summer from Karen Millen. I have had my wear out of it during the holidays, and continue to get my 'value per wear' because it can be worn with opaque tights with a top underneath on the mild autumnal days. So before you start spending on winter clothes see what you can still get away with before the weather turns cold!
