Fashion over 50: how to look and feel your best

Published

on

When it comes to feeling confident and beautiful, the clothes you wear can make a big difference. Here are two tips to help you create flattering outfits that you’ll be eager to show off.

Embrace color
Shades of gray might feel like a safe bet, but the color is more fun. Opt for bright and bold shades — think turquoise, burnt orange, or periwinkle — that complement your complexion and give you a youthful glow. If you’re not ready to go all-in with a magenta dress, start by adding pops of color with your accessories and a classic red lip.

Indulge in quality items
Swap out synthetics in favor of luxurious fabrics like silk, cashmere, and soft cotton. Not only will this elevate your everyday look, but quality items tend to feel great against your skin and can boost your confidence. Additionally, take the time to find pieces that complement your figure, and don’t hesitate to have items tailored to your measurements. A perfect fit can make the difference between sloppy and sophisticated.

For personalized advice, consult the stylists at boutiques in your area.
