Fashion for women over 45

We all change with age. We change both externally and internally. But if we are not very worried about internal changes, when we gain experience, knowledge is accumulated, the ability to control ourselves and our emotions appears, then external changes often do not please us, and most people try to fight it. Or maybe it’s easier not to fight with yourself, but to accept the changes for granted? Just try to find a way, changing, to become no less attractive and feminine. This is possible if you use the accumulated experience in the ability to dress and create your own image. This is exactly what will be discussed.

Creating a basic wardrobe for the age of 45+ is a rather important task, it is not to fill the closet with things bought for the occasion, but to pick up a small number of things from which you can easily create a large number of looks for different occasions. The main thing is to learn how to compose it correctly, depending on what set of clothes you want to create - office, elegant or street.

To do this, it is desirable to have the following components:

• Dress. It must not be alone.The basic option would be a sheath dress made of a fairly dense fabric that can hide figure flaws, if any, an office version in black or gray. The length of this dress varies from just above to just below the knee. You can not do without an evening dress, where you can afford more daring elements - a neckline, an open back. A classic little black dress can be a good option for going out. For warm days, a shirt dress or wrap dress will come in handy.

• Suits. Very comfortable and versatile clothing. Suits are indispensable for working women. They make it possible, by changing or adding some details and accessories, to transform clothes for the office into a dressy one or a day out. Suits can be both pants and skirts. If you take into account your style when choosing a suit, then this will allow you to use its components separately, composing with other things.

• Skirts. The main and win-win option is a strict pencil skirt. It is also not forbidden to have a pleated skirt or a mid-length pleated skirt.

• Pants. Classic black trousers with an arrow continue to be an ideal option. This year, skinny cropped trousers with or without an arrow also remain in fashion.

• Blouses. An item of your clothing where you can allow yourself to show your imagination and use it to create the mood of your image. From the classic version of the white office shirt, to silk, chintz, linen and this season's fashionable chiffon blouses with a bow collar.

• Jeans. Firmly included in our lives, comfortable for trips to nature, cottages and long walks. The main requirement for choosing is that the landing should be medium or high. It is better to choose a style in accordance with your figure.Of course, at the age of 45, rhinestones, bright embroidery will not be entirely appropriate.

• T-shirts and T-shirts. There is hardly a wardrobe where they are absent. These are practical and comfortable clothes for home, leisure, summer walks. The only question is the choice of style, color, pattern. It is worth choosing them so that everything is sustained and corresponds to the figure.

• Pullovers, jumpers. Essential pieces of clothing for the cold season. It will be great if there are at least two of them in the wardrobe - light and dark colors. They go great with pants, skirts or jeans.

• Shoes. Here, as in the whole wardrobe, you should not rush to extremes and move from high heels to flat soles. It is better to stay on models with low heels, as the basic option is perfect pumps. For the rest, one should be guided by needs and convenience, not forgetting the stability of winter shoes and one's own safety.

• Outerwear. This year is the best for choosing trendy colors for ages 45+. The main colors of 2017 will be pastel beige and light brown. They are also perfectly combined with the classic cut that is fashionable this season. Triggers for spring and autumn will also become superfluous in the wardrobe.

In addition, the choice of classic combinations of colors and cuts makes it possible to create a large number of looks from the available small set of things. It all depends on the mood, fantasy and situation.

Classics in clothes does not at all imply old-fashionedness, puritanism and asexuality. The task of the classics is to create an integral, feminine, slightly conservative image.

The choice of color and cut of clothes, the selection of appropriate accessories are aimed at solving this problem.

The classic cut includes an element of sculpture, which makes the outfit appropriate for any situation, and the created image is elegant.

At any age, when choosing clothes, you should always take into account the type of your figure. And if the age is 45+, then this circumstance should be taken into account doubly. Of course, by his age, his own style had already developed, of course, the figure was taken into account in it, but it is never superfluous to once again critically look at yourself in the mirror and decide what is worth emphasizing and what is disguising.

Even if you are the owner of a perfect figure, you should not get carried away with tight outfits, this will not add elegance to the image, but it can compromise your taste. But emphasizing the waist line with a belt will add to your image of femininity and sexuality.

For women of short stature, shapeless clothes, hoodies, large details, everything that can visually further reduce growth are undesirable. High heels are welcome. Visually increases the growth of a longitudinal pattern, matching clothes, as well as a high waist, which is also fashionable this year.

Each of us has our own color preferences and it is not necessary to give them up. It is enough to revise them in the direction of calmer shades.

Colors such as peach, pearl gray or light beige, ivory will refresh your skin and look younger. But it is definitely worth avoiding poisonously bright, flashy colors.

At this age, when making a choice, you should pay attention not to brightness, but to color depth. Given this, we prefer luxurious deep tones, it can be soft chocolate, rich dark blue, ruby, wine, etc.

Calm dusty or smoky shades of blue, green, lavender will look stylish.

But for all this deep, calm range, it is not forbidden to pick up brighter and catchy accessories, a handbag, a scarf or a scarf, a bracelet, etc. This not only gives a zest to the image, but also rejuvenates. When choosing your look, you should avoid combining more than three colors in one look.

When it comes to elegant style, for a woman 45+, bright colors can also be allowed, again not forgetting that preference should be given to deeply saturated colors. The colors of precious stones will be especially good - dark ruby, rich emerald, blue sapphire.

Evening women's clothing suggests greater freedom, it is permissible to have a deep neckline, an open back, and a high slit on the skirt. The choice depends on the characteristics of the figure. Of course, you should choose one.

An excellent option would be a lace dress or a dress with lace inserts. Transparent sleeves are successfully used, allowing you to open your arms, but at the same time keep their shape taut.

Complement the elegant look with jewelry made of precious stones. Here the main rule is not to overdo it, and it is also better to do without jewelry at all than to use imitation jewelry.

We looked at some aspects of fashion for women after 45 years. Let's try to generalize the image.

A woman by this age, as already noted, has gained experience, wisdom, confidence, self-sufficiency. Accordingly, we choose an image that suits these qualities. You can afford a lot, you can choose different styles and outfits, even deviate from the rules, but what you definitely can’t afford is slovenliness and unkemptness. Treat yourself and your age with respect.

It does not go out of fashion and is suitable for most women with medium hair length. It is easy to care for, allows you to create different hairstyles without much difficulty for different situations.

If you have problems with hair loss, then it is better to choose a modern short haircut. It will allow you to create volume, but too short a haircut is fraught with the fact that the neck, chin and back of the head will be open.

Happy owners of thick hair can also afford long hair, if you like it so much and it adorns you.

Hair color is better to choose closer to natural.

Here, too, you should not discover America and deviate from the main principle of style - naturalness. It must be remembered that excessive attempts to cover up your age with cosmetic tricks can have completely the opposite result.

You should never forget about these pleasant little things that can transform just an outfit into a beautiful image. Whether it's a belt that emphasizes the waist, a bright scarf that refreshes the complexion, or a bracelet that focuses attention on thin, beautiful wrists.

Be sure to carefully choose handbags, do not save on them, it will always be noticeable.And so that it is still not ruinous, opt for classic models, which will extend its service life.

And always remember the Chinese wisdom that the best age is the one you are in.

After we talked about how to look, it would be useful to remember what should be excluded from your wardrobe once and for all when a woman crosses the age of 45 years.

If you do not want to bring vulgarity and vulgarity into your image, then first of all you should get rid of all things with the mini prefix. It is also advisable to forget about leggings, worn or torn jeans, jeans with a low waist. Cropped tops, T-shirts with bright patterns or rhinestones are inappropriate for an elegant woman. In general, in any of the outfits it is undesirable to have an open part of the abdomen.

We try to avoid all options for tight tight clothing, even if the figure allows it.

Of course, we must forget about all kinds of tiger, leopard and other animal prints, poisonous neon and acid colors, large fussy patterns.

Do not forget also that not only short and tight clothes or bright flashy colors can spoil your appearance. The same result can be achieved with shapeless overalls, gloomy dark colors, regardless of whether we are talking about dresses and suits or raincoats and coats.

Having considered most aspects of clothing for women over 45, I would still like to note that by this age almost every woman knows a lot about herself, her figure, her face. She has decided on her style of clothing, she has her own color attachments, her favorite accessories.

Well-known women of this age, fashion trends can serve as a good guide, but your taste should still be the determining factor.

And I also want to recall one of the aphorisms of Coco Chanel: "To be irreplaceable, you need to change all the time."

May a healthy lifestyle, moderation in everything, optimism and love always help you in this.
