I can't think of anything that one could wear as a teenager and not wear as a thirty year old, or fifty year old - it's one of those limitations that society puts on us. It's kind of like so many people cutting their hair in their 40's and 50's. My mom hates my hair long - she said I looked homeless! But other people like it, and most importantly I like it. The two things that guide me as far as limitations go on what I will or will not wear, are the same as they would be if I were a teenager - I make sure my clothes cover me, and I prefer not to show too much cleavage, (except when I'm around my husband), and that's mainly because I'm married. I don't want to give men the wrong message, plus most people are like me - they don't want to see other people's cracks, etc. And I'm too big to be wearing tights with a short t-shirt - how big or small you are should play a factor in what clothes you wear, too.

At 29 you can wear almost anything. Though like the previous poster Im not keen on anything too tight or too short.
It doesn't matter what you wear as long as you like it and it suits you. |

I have a uniform at work so no worries there.
I am petite to answer the other question. I have just been told on another forum that- Cute tops (Say, one with a cat face on it) Shorts worn with tights underneath Converse trainers Cropped jumpers with denim shorts are mutton dressed as lamb for 29 year olds  I wear a lot of that sort of clothing so am worried now.

I see those outfits a matter of personal style rather than age. Part of expressing ourselves is through what we wear, and since you're petite I would dress however makes you feel good about yourself, as long as the clothes stay on

Well, those people telling you that are silly. I'm 30 and see nothing at all wrong with wearing any of those things.
The only time things matter is when you're in an environment where there is some form of dress code required. __________________ "The time has come, the Walrus said, to talk of many things. Of shoes, of ships, of sealing wax, of cabbages, of kings! Of why the sea is boiling hot, of whether pigs have wings..." "I have a problem with low self-esteem. Which is really ridiculous when you consider how amazing I am. |

a nappy and a baby grow
I think at 29 you should not be worrying about that at all. You sound very beautiful and you are still very young, so I say enjoy it a wear what you like honey x

Well...Im 27 and really the only thing is I am kinda modest. I don't really want a gal's boobs falling out but hey if she wants cleavage, ok. And super tight clothes to me are really just kind of unattractive-on either gender.
Wear what you want. Ok? |

I am slightly embarrassed to admit that i have a top with a cat face on it. Its too small for me right now but i refuse to get rid of it. Also one of Randy Travis, and one with Wallace and Grommet, which is REALLY questionable, because they are each over one boob!
 You know how they do!

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
