How Not to Look Frumpy
What if they had just called the book 'how not to look frumpy' or 'how to dress nicely out-of-college. Because the clothes you wear and the hair you sport at 30 is probably about the same as what you should be doing at 40.
Sure you'll probably be marginally wrinklier, and perhaps carry a bit more weight (baby pounds don't just disapear afterall). Who knows your hair might even be gray (sorry, but I can't feel bad for anyone with gray hair. Mine turned gray at age 18, no lies, and I've been dying it since, so as not to appear about 20 years older than I am...)
Wear what you want, but yeah, if you look like a frump who wears shapeless unflattering styles, you're going to look like a frump in those clothes no matter what your age.
