What makes some women look so chic and Fabulous after 40, while others wind up looking like fashion victims or frumps?
It often comes down to the quality of their clothes. Let’s face it, when you’re young and fresh faced you can almost get away with almost anything. A crisp, trendy little knock off shirt for only $20, made to last a single season can make you look like a million bucks. But, take that same shirt and try wearing it when you’ve got a few wrinkles and some midlife curves and it will make you look harsh and cheap.
Quality counts especially after 40. Beautifully made, luxurious clothes and accessories fit and look better. They’re timeless and will make you look timeless too.
Nothing says luxury better than these 7 things:
1. Cashmere
Luxurious fabrics like cashmere will make you look young and sexy without having to expose everything. That’s because cashmere is soft and fluffy like a kitten and makes others want to reach out and touch you. Soft and sophisticated it’s the luxurious treat you deserve to look fabulous after 40.
2. Pearls
Jewelry comes and goes but pearls are always in style. Tahitian and fresh water pearls are particularly popular now thanks to the stunning style of speaker of the house Nancy Pelosi. Another beautiful look at the moment is pearls worn in long strands combined with varying length gold chains or gemstone necklaces.
3. Silk
Nothing looks chicer or more elegant than a gorgeous silk scarf around your neck, on your head, or tied to your handbag. Silk scarves worn as headbands are the fashion statement of the moment and of course a flash of silk lining inside your coat always looks rich and luxurious. Style is in the details and silk is one detail that people notice.
4. Croc Handbag
Be it real or croc stamped leather, this is another fashion must we guarantee will make you look fabulous after 40. If you don’t own one treat yourself to this style necessity.
5. High Heeled Quality Leather Pumps
Shoes have a language all their own. A gorgeous pair of leather pumps with a medium to high heel looks fabulous with everything and is appropriate at any age.
6. Diamond Studs
Whether you are wearing jeans or you are dressed to the nines, diamond studs look right.
Classic and cool, diamonds are a 40+ gal’s best friend.
7. Beaded Detailing
A touch of sparkle makes you look youthful and glamorous. Too much can make your look like a Christmas tree. Less is more, so try a little beading on your accessories rather than your clothes. How about a pretty beaded clutch to go with a cocktail dress or some beading on your favorite evening shoe? All you need is a touch to look fabulous after 40!
