I've been mistaken for a "crazy lady" and worse. I’ve learned the hard way not to dress too eccentric when around my kids’ (teen) friends. I’ve been mistaken for a “crazy lady” and worse.

(and yeah, it's learned the hard way! I wore uncomfortable clothes or clothes I just didn't like for years trying to make others happy. it just doesn't work.)

Even if they are beautiful and the only pair they had left were a size too small. Fashion is not worth that much pain!' I would also say 'Remember to take the sticky strips with the size on off clothes when you wear them, I total forget to do this and ended up wearing jeans with the size strip down the back of one leg! Idiot!' Mine would be ‘Never wear shoes (especially high heels) that don’t fit right. Even if they are beautiful and the only pair they had left were a size too small.

The trends are there to serve you, not you them. The style secret learned the hard way? Oh, there are so many to choose from... But I think I have to go with: "Be careful when decade-diving -- you don't want to look costumey." For me, it can be a fine line between wanting to express my eccentric point of view through playing with other time periods and sartorial contexts and becoming a complete joke/disaster.

I (used to) have a bad habit of just snatching what I thought was my size and getting out of the store as fast as possible. Dozens upon dozens of ill-fitting skirts, shoes, and pairs of underwear later, I've finally learned that I should just take the five minutes to do it right.
