Having trouble finding styles you like? Tired of being invisible (as in very few models we can relate to?)Do we need some breakthrough stylin’ for our 50+Fabulous selves? I would be happy to tell the fashion industry what you want. Just let me know what’s bugging you about what you see in stores and in magazines.

Here’s a comment that actually came in on my Makeover Diary...from Laura. Here’s what she had to say about what she’d like to tell the Fashion Industry. “Here are my pet peeves when it comes to shopping for clothes: Every fashion designer seems to think women want to show off their arms (no matter what the season). I don’t. They also seem to think women with a few extra pounds a. all have the same body type and b. don’t really care about looking good. How can we put some pressure on the buyers to include more and better choices?

Dear Fashion Industry

PLEASE lose the horrid prints and prego looking tops.  What happened to the chic sheath dress in a solid color?  what happened to solid colors period?  O am 5’2 and CANNOT wear those loud ugly prints.  I am about to give up and make my own clothes.
