My HS self would be very impressed with my current self.
I was kinda frumpy in HS because my mom is very conservative and never knew or liked current styles, so therefore I was never dressing with current trends.
Today, at almost 51, I very much know the current trends and I do dress in style in an age appropriate manner. One of my favorite compliments from DD19 was when she told me how she loves that I dress in style without trying to look like her and her friends. Since I know the styles, I’m able to have fun shopping with DD19 and have fun buying her new things. I also make sure I keep up with current music, so her and I can enjoy that together too. I love my 80s music and The Frank Sinatra Channel, but that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy todays music too - I don’t want to be that mom that has no idea who’s performing at half time at the Super Bowl - LOL!
