It was colder tonight and dressed too late to add hosiery, so just put on knee length skirt. That is now a NoGo and skirts have to be well above the knee or mini's.
What's your new NoGo in the last 2 years?

Dont have any, I just dress sensible to blend in during the day when outshopping, then anything goes at night when I go out pubs and clubs
No crop tops that bare the belly and no plunging necklines because it's hard to disguise my forms.
No skimpy bathing suits, even if I'm just staying at home. They violate the bare belly and plunging neckline rules.
Also, I don't like the "cold shoulder" styles.
Pretty much any dress or skirt above the knee.
Weighing too much. When I start to show a belly I have to react and lose it again. 5 lbs can make the difference.
I don?t know about the past two years, but certainly in the past five years I have gone to a much more casual style, in keeping with the way women dress in this lake country community. Probably the only no-go for me are very short skirts and shorts, both concessions to my age.
Wearing white after labor day.
No fashionistas here. I dress in whatever I have in my closet, oldest or most recent purchase, what ever takes my moon, not whatever is in vogue. Of course there will always be that new dress and those must have shoes. Have a few on order.:battingeyelashes:
No-Go's? Since Sherry has tried to immitate every attractive woman I've ever seen thru out the ages? I can only think of one.:daydreaming:
Dressing to blend!:doh:
Sherry... You had me in stitches laughing with that reply. Heck my earing just fell out. You go girl.
If e're going to be perfectly honest, it seems like nude pantyhose is no longer acceptable.
Tube tops. Never liked them much anyway.
You all must live in areas of the country where women still wear dresses. I haven't seen a woman in a dress for ages. I have no idea what the current styles are. Me? Having the affliction of being tall a knee length dress a lot of times falls several inches above the knee and way up when I sit down, so it's pantyhose for modesty. Depending of the weather, hot to cold, it may be ankle length sun dresses or midi-length for cooler nights to keep the body warmth around my legs.
My No-Gos are pretty much practical things for me. No crop tops, no skimpy outfits, nothing too revealing. i love long skirts, even though, I'm only 5'6" and probably should stay away from them, but the default rule for me is to go with I like, what makes me happy, and what is comfortable. If I can merge all three of these, it's a definite GO.
My no-goes, sleeveless tops, short skirts, maybe a skort, and tube tops. I?m with Stephanie, can?t remember the last time I saw a woman in a dress, hose, makeup, or heels, which are my favorites. Around here, it?s casual, I call it sloppy. Anything goes (Cole Porter). Sad.
If you see somebody wearing a dress on the street, it is quite likely one of us and that's sad indeed.
My no-goes are all formerly male but now unisex clothing - jeans, sneakers etc. I have few pair of trouser but those mostly as an addition to a collection (like I have matching dress, skirt and blazer) but those have strictly feminine cut.
We kicked that one to the curb in our little email group.Quote:

I guess I need to consider myself fortunate to live in a part of America where women do still wear skirts and dresses. Mind you, I cannot say they're a majority, but there are enough that I enjoy (from both sides of my personality) seeing a variety every day. I work in a customer service business, and one of the managers (a petite Asian) always wears highly fashionable clothing. I am pretty sure I have never seen her in slacks. If I have ever seen her in a skirt rather than a dress, it was a rare day. Also, every day, there are a few younger gals among our front line workers who wear black skirts as part of their uniform, opting to avoid the standard black slacks.
As for my no-go's, those rules apply only when I go out; everything must be appropriate for women my age, or younger by only 10 years or so. Anything for gals in their 20s and 30s I am sure will look out of place. But at home, anything goes.
Jeans, shorts (I don’t wear these in male mode either) anything skimpy or off the shoulder, and hats.
