In Hollywood older actresses try to fool everyone and through a combination of camera tricks, plastic surgery and good genes try to look just like they did when they were in their 20s. Look at Jennifer Aniston, age 41, tries to look exactly like she did 20 years ago. She styles her hair and dresses like someone who is 20 years old. It is time for her to act and look her age.
A woman in the office is the same. She is always styling her hair and dressing just like someone in her 20s. Doesn't she see that she needs a makeover. Yes, try to look young but, girl, no one is fooled, you are no longer in your 20s!
J.A looks 100 times better then she did 20 years ago!
Sorry that you are bothered by it OP, but this is what 40 plus looks like when you take great care of yourself (be it exercise, diet, cosmetic surgery, etc)....
Yes, Jennifer Aniston and the other Hollywood 40-somethings are beautiful, fit, sexy. Money, personal trainers, personal nutritionists/chefs, and cosmetic surgery will do that for you.
However, I agree with the OP about the woman in his/her office. It's kind of pathetic/sad when you have a woman in her 40s or 50s trying to look like a 19 or 20 year old. I've seen it also --- wearing revealing clothing or skin-tight clothing, crazy hair styles, outrageous makeup, piercings, etc.
The thing is, you can look very sexy at 40 or 50 (even if you're not a "Hollywood" person), but you can do it with class and without trying to look 1/2 your age (which, IMO, makes you seem even older)
Hmm. I know where you're coming from, as I've seen many a "What Not To Wear" episodes, BUT, I too have seen, in real life, "20" year olds, plastered down in MAC makeup, looking like they getting ready for a Vegas show, or having all kinds of booty cracks showing from them low rider jeans. Hmm.
I'll be 49 next week. I typically wear men's sweatpants and a funky tee-shirt. Currently, it's a monochrome air-brush style fairy wielding a longsword on a blue background.
Tomorrow it might be a cartoon cat hanging from a tree by its tail that reads, "Morning doesn't start until after my first cup of coffee."
I drive a Jag.
I'm worried I might be too old for the Jag. Maybe I'll trade it in for a mini-van.

I can't get that visualization out of my head, no matter how hard I try.

Holy cats! Somebody please pass the eye bleach. Green polka dots this early in the morning are NOT COOL.
I'm a non-celebrity, 40 and my body is still banging, and I would happily wear just about anything you'd see Jennifer Aniston wear. I don't thing this makes me pathetic in the slightest. I love myself and I embrace anything I wear that looks good on me. Meaning, I love at myself in the mirror and give it a thumbs up. Anyone who doesn't like it can kiss my ass.
Glad you're so pleased with yourself. However, I never said Jennifer Aniston was trying to look younger....
What I was referring to is women in their 40s-50s who wear tight or revealing clothing that they obviously bought in the Juniors section in an attempt to make themselves look young, sexy, etc. It's a very pathetic look and truly makes them look older. Similar to when you see a guy over 30 with an earring.
Most women in their 40's don't have a body like Jennifer Aniston, Nicole Kidman or Salma Hayek, and the vast vast majority of them know that. But i think the OP is talking about those few out there who still think they can get away wearing Bebe and looking like they stepped off the set of the Housewives of OC. Similarly, if you go clubbing in Hollywood you can see pauchy divorced guys rocking gaudy Ed hardy/christian audigier tees and trying to pick up women half their age: all you can do is burst out laughing & roll your eyes.
