Most women struggle with fashion trends throughout there lives. That difficulty increases for women over 50. In fact, the phrase senior fashion sounds like an oxymoron. These simple fashion tips will help you age with grace and style.
1.Buy the best quality fabrics you can afford. Aging skin needs the support.
2.Gather flattering accessories that have integrity, authenticity (not cute or silly) and that have presence.
3.Try not to sacrifice style for comfort…it may take some looking but you can have both.
4.Don’t confuse casual dressing with the opportunity to wear sloppy outfits.
5.Pay attention to correct fit. Too tight or too loose and baggy, are both bad.
6.Sporty style, (which alludes to vitality and youthfulness) may be your best style as you age.
7.Naturalness, and a healthy appearance should be the goal. Too much artifice only contributes to an “old” image.
8.Wear a collar … prop it up 50’s style (polo shirt, cotton shirt) up to frame an aging neck.
9.Make an investment in hip, modern glasses…and wear them.
10.Consider the best (with an eye on trend as well as classicism) accessories …especially stylish, well made shoes and bags…and keep them in top condition.
Sherrie Mathieson has written two books; STEAL THIS STYLE: Moms and Daughters Swap Wardrobe Secrets: Looks That Make Hip Classic and Classic Cool and Forever Cool: How To Achieve Ageless, Youthful and Modern Personal Style for Women and Men to help both women and men over 50 feel better about what they wear.
