"Mothers who viewed themselves as young at heart, cared about fashion, and viewed their daughters as fashionistas, tended to copy their teen daughters' fashion choices. Furthermore, Ayala told the Journal of Consumer Behavior, it's a conscious choice, mothers weren't just picking up fashion cues from their adolescent girls unintentionally, but said they were deliberately purchasing make-up, clothing and other fashion items that their daughters also purchased."
I'd like to think that half the fun of growing up is becoming smarter and more sophisticated, and I look forward to my personal style evolving to reflect that. That's not to say that a teenage girl can't be inspirational. But there's so much to be inspired by in women of all ages, sartorially and otherwise, and things seem to be getting a little overly youthcentric these days. I'd really like to see women embrace being women. And what woman over 25 wants to dress like a teenager anyway? I think we can do better.
So to keep this post from being all rant-y and no rave-y, feast your eyes on a few women who make being a grown up look sexy, hip, fun and fashionable.
And as my girl Diane up there demonstrates...being a grown up has its benefits.
