Top 10 Fabulous things about turning 30 (for ladies).. according to me!

10.

You get to wear completely outrageous clothes without feeling ‘not cool’ because in fact you are now old enough and young enough to pull off every look so therefore you are ‘cool’….and yes.. going out in your pyjamas is fine so long as you accessorise your Primark PJ’s well. i.e allsaints jacket, Uggs (real ones) and Raybans

9.

You get to swear in public without being frowned upon for being an inconsiderate youth!

Not necessarily at the public though.. that then moves you from ‘cool’ to ‘rehab’

8.

You get to smoke in front of your in-laws without feeling like you are being naughty.. you are 30 now so you can smoke when ever you want… naughty is in your own head

7.

At parties you are now welcome to belt out YMCA and sing and dance along..

So long as you keep smiling, you can still remember the routine and you don’t fall over..… otherwise it may be rehab again

6.

In the eyes of today’s youth (aka 12 – 22ish) you are a ‘cool older person’. You hear things like.. “I hope I am still dancing and partying when I am your age you are soooo.. like…cool!!” While the older dudes (aka 45 – 65ish) just think you are very responsible and grown up and not partying anymore! Errrm

5.

You are now allowed to talk openly about having babies, (and even wanting them) without worrying about scaring off your boyfriend.. our clocks are ticking so you may as well get…er.. licking!! (well it’s a start)

4.

Going out and buying yourself a puppy is no longer considered ‘irresponsible’ but is considered ‘practice’ which is a good thing. Waiting for your parents / boyfriend / friends permission to buy yourself some love just means you really do need to ‘practice’.. go on get some responsibility… it’s great!

3.

Things that you have not been able to afford in your twenties are now a lot more affordable and the attitude ‘it will last me a lifetime’ becomes reality. Not only do you work out the typical CPW (cost per wear) you now work out the HIMMF (how it makes me feel). So a £250 allsaints dress you only wear 10 times in your life would have had a CPW of £25 (+ dry cleaning)….quite a lot! Therefore to justify the cost you work out the HIMMF… if that comes to $million or more…well you do the maths!

2.

You no longer have to feel guilty or ‘sad’ for not going out on a Saturday night and infact choosing to have your friends over instead is fine… because 9 times out of 10 they don’t want to go out either… the difference is. now you can admit it!!

Having a dinner party is the new ‘Saturday night’ anyway….. isn’t it?

1.

You are in the prime of your life. Basically the best place you can be. Old enough to have responsibility, knowledge and wisdom and be great friends with your parents. Yet Young enough to be irresponsible on occasions, admit you don’t have the knowledge but share your wisdom with all that are younger, and think that you are cool dancing to YMCA with your puppy, while smoking a fag in your number one HIMMF!
