By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.

Plus it's true when people say they feel invisible. It's like once you hit a certain age you aren't considered important enough to even be acknowledged anymore. Maybe that's why some people get louder when they age. That and hearing problems.
I hear Tynagh about finding appropriate clothes. I can still fit into young styles but I never want to be that woman in her sixties who is wearing tight fitting sweat pants that say juicy on the bum. Where are the clothes for those of us who aren't quite ready to just wear printed blouses and elastic waist bands every day?
I'm currently in a US western state. I met a woman in her 70's who lived and worked on a remote cattle ranch for 40 years. I was at her house and she has a nice pair of leather boots on display. I asked about the cowgirl boots. She said she bought them at auction and would like to wear them but she only sees the young girls in sundresses wearing the cowgirl boots. She did not feel like it would be age appropriate to wear the boots.
It mad me sad that a woman who had owned and worked on a cattle ranch for 40 years did not feel like she could wear cowgirl boots due to her age.
We are in a western town by the way.
I have fun knit animal hats and have been twice informed that they were age inappropriate - meant for children. “My inner child’s head was cold.”
You know what I’m too old to wear?!? The fashion opinions of others! (And those funny one piece coverall pyjamas. Can’t get them off fast enough. 🚽)
If you want to wear printed blouses and elastic waist pants - go for it,
If you want to be an Iris Apfel and wear tons of jewellery and bright colours - go for it.
If you want to wear jeans and t-shirts - go for it.
I've had cowboy boots for years - not because they were in style, but because they were useful and looked ok. Still do.
I don't care about what age you are. Wear what you want to wear. That may change as you get older. It's what you are comfortable in, in terms of how your look and how you feel. I don't care what the fashion mags say. or what is the latest fad. If you live long enough, they come around again anyway.
I bought a flowery pj set & I plan to wear the top as a top out to dinner tomorrow night. It has puffed sleeves with a frilly neckline. With some black elastic waist pants (I have several now) 😂. Add some jangly earrings.. Voila!
The ladies of this town (on a mini-break) have been spotted with pink hair, extreme green cardi, big earrings, super bright eyewear, campingwear, farmwear, everything. Love it.
That was very insulting. sometime the pants in the younger section fit me better, sometimes,.
Golden that was great! I do admit I am not small chested and sometimes at 60 I still like to show the girl of a little. 😆
Not that I want to be large, but if I got them I might as well. 😂
I actually do quite a bit of clothes shopping at BJs , everyday tees and warm things.
