12 Unsexy Things In My Closet That I Wear Constantly As A 40ish Lady
Without an ounce of regret.
by Carolyn Firestone
Let’s try something.
On a scale from 1 - 10, how strongly do you agree with the following statement?
“I do not get dressed every day with the goal of looking sexy.”
Ok, now rate how strongly you agree with this statement:
“However, that does NOT mean I want to start dressing myself exclusively in the daytime pajamas of my 90-year-old grandmother.”
If you answered 5 or above on both of these statements, then we’re on the same page.
Aren’t most of us?
Realistically, at a certain point in life, the majority of what we like to wear AND what we look our best in isn’t the stuff that’s “trendy” or “youthful” or “sexy.” It’s the classic, flattering, comfortable stuff that makes us look and feel really, really good. Especially after 40.
There are 13 things in my closet right now that I wear ALL the time. And sure, they’d probably also look great on my 90-year-old grandmother, but none of them feel old or sad. They may be “unsexy,” but they are all excellent. Here’s why.
