The other day (yesterday), I was thinking about clothes. More specifically, mom clothes. Recently, I've started taking notice of the outfits that older women (30+) typically wear-- long shorts, mom jeans, etc. I realized that, even if I am magically able to keep a fairly decent body into my thirties, it will no longer be appropriate for me to wear mini skirts, cut-offs, really tight and short dresses, etc.
This got me thinking... Am I wasting my slutty year? As someone who typically dresses fairly(ish) conservatively, I cannot help but wonder if I should be taking advantage of this time. I mean, these next few years will, arguably, be the best years of my physical appearance, so should I not be using this time to the fullest?
Now this isn't to say that I am now going to start dressing like a hooker, but it does mean that I might actually where some of the shorter shorts I usually keep hidden in the back of my closet; maybe even slip on one of my shorter sun dresses, or a strapless shirt on occasion.
Additionally, I didn't intend to imply that I dress like a nun all the time. That is certainly not the case. The point is that if one of my friends makes a comment about my outfit being scandalous, I usually take it personally and try and defend myself. Maybe now I'll start embracing it; I won't be able to get away with this kind of thing later on in life. Unless, of course, I'm still single. In which case, I might just kill myself.
Kidding...
...sort of...
