Am I mutton?

Just been to a 12 year old's party. One of the girls, admittedly one of the bigger ones, was dressed pretty much exactly like me!

I'm no spring chicken but thought I looked pretty hot in my skinnies, biker boots, long vest and circle scarf. Plus slouchy cardi. Now I'm wondering if I should get myself a blue rinsed perm and one of those motorised scooter things instead.

Anyone else have this dilemma?

I usually ask my daughter if I am dressed like a sheep, and she tells me straight ! Being older should nt have to mean being a slob ( unless you really want to)

On Friday our modern apprentice aged 17 discovered my age, and sais she hopes she looks as good as me when shes 'that old: ...... smile

We should change the word 'mutton' to 'fashion victim'? You can get it right or get it wrong at any age.
