A huge, flashy pattern, ladies, can be your undoing. A smaller print that isn't worn from head to toe can have the opposite effect, making the wearer appear slimmer and more confident.
In your 50s, you can afford greater quality. However, you shouldn't flaunt your premium brand purchases. Choose things with little branding, such as a modest logo. Shopping smarter:
Poor posture might be prompted by wearing heels that are too high. Worse, they can give the impression of sagging breasts, which is something absolutely no woman in her fifties wants to see in the mirror.
It's counterintuitive to let your hair grow longer as you become older in order to give the impression that you have more locks. If you're dealing with hair loss or a receding hairline, a shorter cut will make your hair appear thicker.
Knitwear is a stylish way to switch up your fall and winter wardrobe and stay warm.Make sure you have thick, shawl-collared cardigans, bulky fisherman's sweaters, thinner cashmere crew necks, and long-sleeved merino Wool polo shirts.
You can no longer afford to buy anything simply because you like it, even if it isn't available in your size. Take an item to the tailor if it doesn't fit quite right but can be altered to some degree.
When it seems like your waist is just getting bigger, a short, fitting shirt can help you fool people into thinking your middle is smaller and more toned than it actually is.
Red's boldness and allure are especially on display this winter. I used to get away with buying more bluey crimson red than orangey pillar box red in the winter.
You can get away with cheap, poorly manufactured denim while you're young and fit. It's a dead giveaway in your 50s. Bootleg jeans flatter your belly and lengthen your legs.
