Minis
As you get older, you should avoid “mini” items of clothing. It is better to stick to something that, at best, rests right above the knees. You might have great legs, but you will look older if you go too short. Most miniskirts and minidresses were made for teenagers and young women, so forget about these items of clothing.
Pieces With A Story
The dress might come with a lot of sentimental value, but this is not a good reason to wear it. Keep in mind that it is possible to turn it into something else. It might even work better as a scarf or a different garment! You do not need to wear something unflattering because it reminds you of your anniversary.
