When in doubt, err on the conservative. You've also been around long enough to know that fad clothing isn't worth the investment. Keep a wardrobe of classic staples and add a fun piece or two so you can experiment with the wacky fashion suggestions thrown off the runway.

And note: if you feel funny coming out of the dressing room to peek at yourself in the mirror, then chances are the look doesn't work for you!
I get that to an extent, but it's not the only thing that we're told is "in" I can't think of a good example at the moment.

Clearly leggings on me would not be cute, but I don't think they're the end all of fasion disasters

But reading the fasion magazines don't help, half the stuff in there is crap too. AND it tends to cost 300 dollars a sleeve... Almost NOTHING on a runway model looks good in real life without drastic changes. I've seen weirder outfits on models than on the homeless. Sigh, where's the fashion for the rest of us?
