Craig and Shelly:  I know you're not 50 yet, but this is sent as friendly advice as you reach that ripe old age (for those of us already there, it's really a pretty cool place to be, especially if you follow the style advice below!)

SENIOR DRESS CODE

Many of us "Old Folks" (those over 50, WAY over 50,

      or hovering near 50)are quite confused about how we should

present ourselves. We are unsure about the kind of 

image we are projecting and whether or not we are

correct as we try to conform to current fashions. 

           Despite what you may have seen on the streets, the

           following combinations DO NOT go together And should be avoided:

1. A nose ring and bifocals

2. Spiked hair and bald spots

3. A pierced tongue and dentures

4. Miniskirts and support hose

5. Ankle bracelets and corn pads

6. Speedo's and cellulite

7. A belly button ring and a gall bladder surgery scar

8. Unbuttoned disco shirts and a heart monitor

9. Midriff shirts and a midriff bulge

10. Bikinis and liver spots

11. Short shorts and varicose veins

12. Inline skates and a walker

And last, but not least

13. Thongs and Depends  

At some point you have to give up the "DAISY DUKE" shorts (see picture below)

and...as Carol says....definitely do not combine daisy dukes with orthopedic shoes--a definite style no-no.

Have a great day (if you can after seeing that image!!).
