I have to wonder how much longer PP can pull the look off. I mean – really! She’s early 40s. I suppose it depends how long the show goes on for but after she turns 45 there is really no way she’ll be able to get away with it, surely? I really do hope they use the adoption storyline to make her question her identity in every single way and she tones down the clothes. I don’t mean she un-goths herself. Like you said, you can develop the look, and mature it.
*I* don’t dress the same way I did in my 20s or even 30s because I’ve discovered more about what suits me, and certain things really just don’t come over well when you’re older. I wore mini skirts (not often but I did wear one for a brief period!) as a 20-something but I wouldn’t now. Nothing above knee length! And it’s not about being dictated to by fashion – it’s about a change in yourself. Something you just feel isn’t what you want to be doing anymore.
We once hired a temp who showed up in a miniskirt and with her midriff showing. Nobody is going to take anyone seriously who dresses that way. It’s not that I disapproved – I didn’t care – I just thought that girl wasn’t going to get anywhere if she actually wanted a serious career.
Abby just about gets away with it because she’s a TV character but if she worked in my office I’d ask her to conform to the dress code. I also don’t think it’s fair to make guys feel uncomfortable by wearing overtly sexy clothes to the office and flash a lot of leg around. We’re there to work. People can be showing off their legs, tits and asses in their own time. And those collars – I own several but really I’d only wear them in a certain kind of club or in the bedroom in a certain kind of relationship! LOL! The idea of wearing them to work is ultra embarrassing!
