I should have men...Thanks for your comment, Susan. I should have mentioned those Glamour Do's and Don'ts. Those were almost as influential as those Cosmo quizzes! And I know, the VPL. I am still anxious about it! But see, you are already enjoying the fruits of retirement - dressing however the hell you want! :) RosyRosy Brewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17156447894512749413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6146286857215408059.post-71333860337940610732015-08-25T14:27:01.169-07:002015-08-25T14:27:01.169-07:00Thanks, sazzy.

My upper body developed late in life! :) RosyRosy Brewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17156447894512749413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6146286857215408059.post-85661810630100227812015-08-25T12:56:36.631-07:002015-08-25T12:56:36.631-07:00I see your grandson's faces in some of those y...I see your grandson's faces in some of those younger-you shots! The tip I always remember from Glamour magazine's Do's and Don'ts page was to never have VPL (Visible Panty Line). But I never figured out how to avoid it. This was before the era of thong panties (and really, who actually wears those?!) I read a few style blogs now, and see that I can give myself permission to wear flat shoes and loose fitting tunics - which I have to remind myself doesn't mean flip-flops and sweatshirts. I take those magazine tips with a grain of salt now…rather than aspiring to be Martha Stewart, I'm just happy if I remember to buy Halloween candy before the munchkins across the street come over! It's all about realistic expectations.<br /> Susan Susan Sprickmannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6146286857215408059.post-43642503197174819382015-08-25T10:47:46.369-07:002015-08-25T10:47:46.369-07:00Oh.
