I didn't particularly care for this stuff - I like structure better. Flowy stuff that's big enough for my bottom half hangs horribly on my shoulders, and even though my middle is far from small, it's not as big as my bottom half, so if it doesn't have a semblance of 'shaping' it adds pounds (if the shoulders even fit.)

Oh how I feel ya, sister. I had my realization of the same and it was, at best, unpleasant for me.

My clothes are an eclectic mess of a mix, but I do have some really tailored stuff which has held up well. I just don't wear it very often.

I am old enough to:
- know what I want
- have the freedom to go after it
- rely on the experience of 51 years of living to make better choices.

Since having young body to do all this in isn't an option, I'll just continue aging to perfection.
