Over 40 fashion tips
May 27, 2008
For men, men over 40 have to realize that their body has changed including their hair and skin color, which also changes their color palate. It is important to make sure the colors they are wearing are still flattering.
On the other hand, many women over forty are walking around revealing skin that begs to be covered, wearing clothing suited for their daughters, combing hair that cries for updating and applying lipstick beyond their lip line for that trendy “pouty” mouth. They blame hormonal changes for their extra weight and PMS for cynical attitudes.
In many cases, while trying to appear younger, they are actually making themselves look and act older, often foolish. And despite all the books, articles and television segments on the subject, no one is pointing to the obvious. No one is telling the truth.
The rule Over 40 fashion tips say, the older you get, the lighter and more natural you go – on hair color, lipstick, mascara, and blush. While a 20-year old can pull of the kohl-rimmed eyed, Goth look (barely!), raccoon eyes only highlight wrinkles. Like dandruff falling on a black shirt, excessively dark makeup and hair coloring will exacerbate every flaw you have. Makeup is supposed to accentuate, not cover up; it is supposed to highlight your natural beauty, not repel.
For the men Over 40 fashion tips say, some men’s lifestyles have changed as well during 40s. Perhaps they have stopped working and are now more leisurely. Men in this particular situation often don’t know what to do since they were used to wearing a suit to work every day and jeans and t-shirts on the weekends. They have a hard time transitioning their wardrobe to fit their new lifestyle. Over 40 fashion tips says that a sport coat is a great transition item perhaps even in suede. Also where he used to wear dress shoes during the week and sneakers on the weekend, he may now find more casual shoes like driving moccasins appropriate.
Coming back the over 40 fashion tips for women, as you get older, your body changes. Even though many say that 40 are the new 30, unless you are one of the genetically blessed, I don’t care how much you work out; your body is going to change. Those changes can vary from wider hips, to sagging boobs to growing arm flaps (you know, when you wave goodbye and your hand is not the only thing moving). How do you handle the change? Take wardrobe inventory. What was working on your old body may not be working now.
Use a full-length mirror. Install one on the inside of the closet door, or use a freestanding mirror. You need to see your clothing in its entirety to see if an item is really working for you. You need light. It is absolutely necessary to have a bright light installed in your closet. You need to see what you have in order to wear it.
