Second that. It's hard to judge without a benchmark.

Right? And the only other time I've ever read the phrase "rocking a miniskirt" was in the May 1989 issue of Glamour magazine.

Actually, if you look at some of the popular designers, they are. In fact, they're making dresses that are the same length as a lot of tunics, these days.

While I somehow agree with that statement, women who care about their look should wear clothes that compliment their shape. A little self-criticism goes a long way.

More often than not, I see ladies wearing totally wrong sizes or design that makes them look grotesque and not chic at all. Not to mention that often I feel offended by their look when they reveal more than they cover, especially when they show too much of the aging skin.

I also noticed that (some) women (actually men too) the older they get the more infantile clothes they wear... And that regardless of their body shape too...
Like women past, say, 35 and wearing t-shirts saying " I am cutie", "Sassy girl", "I am your Barbie" etc.

I'm certain I've seen this exact story/question here. 40s, mini skirt, former cheerleader...

It's normal - well within social boundaries. You are fine with skirts. The controversy among middle-aged versus young adults is on the tight-fitting, thin leggings.

Yep, there are ALWAYS stipulations at every age, if you're smart.
