Dear
Cathy:
My
mom just turned 65 years old and is retired.
My father passed away 10 years ago so she doesn’t act or dresses her age
at all. She dresses more like a younger
person and dates younger men. When is it
time to become age appropriate and tone down your look? Need to Be Age Appropriate, Washington
Dear
Need To Be Age Appropriate:
What is
age appropriate anyway? The things that
your mother do or wear is probably what makes her unique so why try to change
it? She is retired so she is not in
anyones’ workplace looking like she does.
No one really want to be a carbon copy of other people so let her live
her own life.
According to
many women, at age 59 you should ditch high heels, red lipstick,
tight clothes and false nails and seek to look more natural but many people are
saying in your 40s it’s time to tone down.
Every woman has had her own moments of confronting age in
fashion and beauty trends. Many women
say they feel beautiful at any age and are happy to let nature take its course
without resorting to extreme anti-aging measures.
Many feel they look younger than they really are and would
never consider any type of cosmetic surgery, so again let your mother live her
own life. If she is out there staying mobile, then that's the important thing because by age 65, many Seniors have resorted to living sedentary lifestyles -- so kudos to your mom for being unique.
