Please Yourself

Please yourself

 

 

I think that ladies should ignore

The dictates of the fashion trade

The doubtful claims of haute couture

 by so called experts often made.

 

A wise lady will choose her clothes

 to show her assets at their best.

Not as the expert all suppose

 to look exactly like the rest.

 

Dress to suit your face and figure

There is no need to buy in haste

clothes which make your rivals snigger.

Have faith in your own good taste.

 

Women come in many shades

different shapes and different sizes.

Mature matrons and slim young maids.

Every one that some man prizes.

 

A well dressed women who stands out.

Knows full well what she’s about.

 She won’t let the experts tell her

 how to dress to please her feller.

 

Some women have good fashion sense

but many lack the confidence

to tell the experts to get lost.

They can dress well at half the cost.

 

Fashion labels may sell clothes

but only silly girls suppose.

Only the latest style will do.

When obviously it is not true.

 

Suit yourself in the way you dress.

Choose the clothes that will suit you

If you do you will impress

in the way you ought to do.

 

Let all the fashion gurus prate

But don’t believe a word they say.

You know that you will look great

when you dress in your own way

 

Fashions come and fashions go.

You know when you’re looking good

What do the so called experts know?.

Ignore them as you know you should.
