The Forgotten Ones

My biggest gripe when buying clothes is the fact that store buyers cater only for the young fashion junkies! What about us older ladies who don't want to wear 'hipster' pants or tight fitting things that look like they are 3 sizes too small? We value our comfort at this time of life and don't need to be slaves to (often ridiculous) fashion. I am tired of being ignored when it comes to everyday clothing at the 'affordable' stores. (K-Mart, Target, Big W etc.)

oooh the endless nightmare of fashion vs real people!! My friends and I recently shared the same gripes over lunch. We came to a realisation that it was time we did something about it and sought a number of websites via google to accomodate our sizes ranging from a real size 10 to 26. We found online companies who cater for all women sizes, styles, comfort and up to minute fashion for a fraction of the price sold in Target, KMart and other store.
The reality is the fashion industry needs an overhaul to eliminate the over egoed marketing hype that fashion editors cotow to, to achieve $$$$$.
