Style After 50 is the New Normal
Style after 50 isn’t something to shy away from. In fact, 50 is still relatively young, and you will also be working and living some of your best years. So, how can you feel better about your age? From disregarding the standard rules to embracing your colors, here are some suggestions.
Embrace Modern Grooming
Transformative beauty and grooming for the over-50s will help you redefine who you are and elevate personal style. For men and women, this can be a bold step and pretty scary when you have been used to looking a certain way for a long time. However, modern grooming and cosmetic treatments make a huge difference. For example, I found that men who undergo a beard transplant can potentially boost their confidence, just as a Hydrafacial can do for a woman over 50.
Rip Up the Rule Book
There are fashion “rules” that many dedicated followers stick to no matter what. However, they don’t actually work for everyone and can be somewhat restrictive. That’s no way to live a life and certainly no way to approach personal style. It’s personal for a reason! For example, we always hear about what’s age-appropriate. Well, who says you can’t flaunt a flat and toned stomach after 50? There are no real rules, just what looks good and makes you feel better.
Style After 50 Relies on Fit
A survey by J. Walter Thompson London found that 86% of women agree that fashion isn’t defined by age. Finding and maintaining your confidence after 50 really can come down to how you look and indeed feel because of what you are wearing.
- Embrace your shape and try not to squeeze into clothes that don’t fit your proportions.
- Opt for fitted, not tight, clothing that complements your natural shape and minimizes issues.
- Stay comfy by choosing fabrics that feel just as good as they look for free movement.
What About Color and Texture?
Colors and textures can be challenging to get right, but when you do, they can make you feel like a completely new person. You can go through life playing it safe with neutral colors and never really exploring the vibrancy of something offbeat. Now, midlife is the perfect time to try the things you always wanted to, or you will regret it. If you are hesitant, begin with something like a vibrant neckpiece, belt, or handbag, and incorporate depth with different materials.
Don’t Forget Accessories
Even if you stick to your usual basics, such as neutral colors and flat materials, well-placed accessories can elevate any ensemble. There’s nothing like a stylish statement piece of jewelry to capture the essence of your overall style. And what about practical items? Of course, a delightful clutch or tote doesn’t just hold your stuff; it can reflect and highlight your flair in an understated yet desirable manner that adds a unique and personal touch.
Summary
Modern grooming and cosmetic treatments will help you find your style after 50 for looking and feeling amazing. For clothing, focus on comfort and the fit, rather than squeezing in too tightly. Of course, accessories can transform even the safest outfit into something unique and stunning.
Until next time!
