Veni Vidi Vivi

I’ve had my mind on clothes and fashion for a while now, and I’ve wanted to write about my style, the challenges (or lack thereof) I face as a “woman of a certain age”, and other thinky thoughts. I’ve always been intrigued by style and glamor. When I was in high school, I seriously considered a career as a fashion designer or fashion buyer. My personal style – as evidenced by the 80’s picspam I foist on you – was quirky and eclectic. It still is, but in different ways.

In discussion with a twenty-something friend about the Madonna episode of Glee, however, I realized that in order to talk about my style, I needed to delve into some pop culture and music history for a foundation of what formed me, and why I dress the way I did and do. This got a little long and detailed. Please note: These are my opinions from my experiences, and no one has to agree with them or remember things the way I do. That is what makes them my opinions!
