  1. I rocked overalls hard in the 80s. One side unbuckled and rode my banana seat bike around the neighborhood. I feel like there’s no way I could do it better now anyway so I am fine with that… (a tear).

  2. What’s wrong with neon and cropped pants? If you have the body for it, do it. And of course don’t overdo the neon like youre going to a rave or something. I see nothing wrong with neon accents here and there.

    1. And mixing patterns?! I’m not 35 but this article seemed a little “OMG the OLDZ!”

    2. I know — honestly, it’s typically ONLY women over 35 that I see wearing cropped pants.

    3. Well, what I took away from it is that I need to get a pair of cropped overalls ASAP because I just turned 32 and in three years that will no longer be acceptable.

  3. I gotta disagree with the “4 Inapropriate Interview Questions” article–2 of the questions are illegal and the last is just a stupid question. The first question basically asks a candidate about a large gap in their resume. That’s a standard question if someone hasn’t been working for a year. I’ve had candidates just say “dealing with a family issue.” That’s great–all I needed to know. I have no follow-up. I don’t know or care if the family issue was a new baby, a kid with special needs, an elderly family member, a home remodel, or their own cancer treatment.

  4. What’s wrong with the pattern mixing in the Current Fashion Trends to Avoid article? I like the “‘done wrong” picture.
