That made me laugh Art.

I say if youve got it then flipping flaunt it while you can !!
I don't wear mascara either Aysa, I found out the hard way, that you can only keep it for a fairly short time, then you have to throw it out as it gives you some kind of bacteria infection.......my eyes used to get so irritated, but I would be using it for months on end......

Re: Is Glamour Only For The Young?

I think mini skirts and skorts look nice on a woman if she has good legs. It is not always about "age as a number"....some of us, look much younger than we are and we can pull things off..... that others our age, can't.........

I have friends who won't be caught dead in a pair of shorts, but I wear them all the time, as I have good legs and I think they look nice, but I don't wear short shorts, I like them just above the knee......

I think our hair is our "crowning glory".......keep your hair beautiful, and you are half way there already.

I hear people saying older women should not wear long hair. I don't like that because some women look wonderful with long hair. I have friends with long hair and I envy them....

I think a lot of people might be in their 50's and 60's on here, so you are probably feeling a bit judgemental about ladies older than yourself by saying that they shouldn't do this or that or wear this or that........BUT WAIT, I can hardly wait to see how you feel when you get in your 70s and 80s and you have a half decent figure and nice long hair, and you are happy as hell with how you look........I say "all the power to her"...........

Re: Is Glamour Only For The Young?

I don't like long hair on myself because it drags my face down and makes me look much older as it did my sister. Have a haircut from long to shoulder length in late 50s or 60s and personally I think it knocks years off you

I saw you picture, your hair is "perfect" and suits you well Lion..

I think it is how Arty described in the first post.......
It is different strokes for different folks....

We are all different, we are all built different, some of us are covered in wrinkes and some hardly have any.....

Some of us have beautiful breasts and some look terrible in bathing suit because their breasts hang down so badly......

Some older people in their 70's look younger than those in their 60's and it has a lot to do with how much sickness they have had in their lives.......

My mom at 90, looked like an 80 year old.......

I don't like to see this thread all about "bashing women" and "making fun of them".........makes us look "catty", no matter what age they are or what their health is like...we need to build each other up, encourage each other, not make fun of people......don't you agree?

Ok, I'll shuddup now..........carry on ladies, I have to go make my tea and rock in my rocker,

Whoah, no one is making fun of people I don't think, just merely saying it how they see it, differing opinions.

Don't take me too serious Lion. I think when someone says a person looks like "a case of mutton dressed as lamb"....here in Canada, we look at that as making fun of someone....but I know, "when in Rome, do as the Roman's do"........so I should be encouraging myself to think more like the girls in the UK......

I think you are beautiful Lion and I wouldn't insult you for the world....... (so don't pay any attention to me tonight, maybe I am having one of my sensitive moments)
