Carm

dress more stylishly (read all 4 entries…)

I'm marking this one done for now.

I think I do fairly well with this. I watch What Not to Wear and try to follow the guidance that works for my body type.

It will always be a goal to do better, I think. But I really should replace this one with a goal to go through my wardrobe and repair, clean or give away anything I’m not wearing.

I watch

that show too, and have learned enough to pay more attention to how I dress everyday. It makes a difference in how one feels, and that is pretty important. :-) cheers!

Thanks

Yes, I really try but I know some days I miss the mark. I notice a difference in how people react to me depending on what I’m wearing too.

I have a funny story about What Not to Wear

that I may have already told on 43T.

Stacy London from the show used to be my youngest brother in law’s girlfriend. This was before the show existed. It was when she was fashion editor for Madomoiselle magazine. During that period, she favored the geek fashion look – heavy, black-framed glasses, dresses unbuttoned in the front so you could see her bra, sneakers as shoes (with the dresses). Mr. Wren & I, who are just average clothes wearers laughed about it. And we still have a family picture with her in it that I sometimes show to people as proof of my brush with fame.

I love that story!

I bet that’s a great photo too. I’d love to see Stacy in black-framed glasses and sneakers. Of course she would look good wearing a paper sack…

That's a great story and

just goes to prove that we can all come into our own when the time is right. But how funny she went from a kind of “extreme” geek statement to one of “appropriate-ness” for event/body type, etc. That would be a funny photo to see!

_{Oooo wren, if you are famous now, me and Carm and Tempsll are too, just by association! Woo hoo! JK JK :-)}

I really should see

if I can scan it.

I kind of doubt that I can scan things in color, though…
