fashion-able?

I just got done flipping through the one fashion magazine I subscribe to. Every so often I have a crisis about my clothes, perpetuated by continuing to do things like flipping through fashion magazines. My personal style is a little younger than I actually am, and I prefer the "casual" end of the business casual dress code at work. But then I think I should be dressing more my age, whatever that means, and of course I want to look cute. But some things have changed. I feel entitled to keep my flabby post baby tummy as long as I want, skinny jeans be darned. There will never be a pair of pointy toe boots that don't make me look like a circus clown and/or cut off the circulation to my toes because my ginormous feet grew even bigger during pregnancy. One trend I will shun for sure: wearing 2 cardigans at once. Besides the fact that I live in Florida, where one is enough, it just looks like the sweater equivalent of putting on one of each of two different pairs of shoes to decide which to wear but forgetting to put the match on of whichever you ended up with.
