Succumb:
1. To submit to an overpowering force or yield to an overwhelming desire; give up or give in.
2. To die.
I have little interest in dressing like my 20 year-old daughter, but I’m not about to dress age-appropriately either and succumb to looking like your average soccer mom. Nothing against soccer moms — I used to be a soccer mom. (click here for rant-filled post on the subject.) We have options gals — plenty actually! I’ve assembled three outfits that guarantee to keep them guessing. Since it’s Spring (darn near), I’ve gone with a more feminine and romantic feel, but if that’s so not you, these ensembles work just as well with solids in a more neutral, modern palette. The trick isn’t really where you shop, it’s how you put your outfit together. The retro-inspired polka-dot shrug shown above is actually from Forever 21 and sells for $23.
