Having a midlife fashion crisis? Does it feel like nothing in your closet works anymore?
Maybe the clothes you used to wear don’t fit anymore, what you feel comfortable wearing has changed or your lifestyle has changed so much that nothing seems to work for the life you have now.
Let me say, this is all normal and you are not alone.
Are You Having A Midlife Fashion Crisis?
Many women will go through this during midlife. But I am hoping to encourage and inspire you by sharing a few fun looks you can try so you can find your fabulous again.
Before we start with the inspiration, we have to come to terms with what is. I know! That is the hard part.
You need to come to an acceptance of the body you have now and the life you have now, in order to get excited about the opportunities that lie ahead for you.
Personally, I found this hard. When perimenopause hit, I found it hard to accept how my shape has changed. Clothes that I loved wearing just didn’t work anymore. In order to make way for what works for the shape I have now, I had to purge my closet of the things that don’t.
This is such an important step. You don’t want to open your closet every day and see the things you can’t wear anymore. So get them out of your sight. Even if it means putting them in a different closet for now until you are ready to let go of them.
Now for the fun:
You don’t have to surrender your style, you just need to update it.
Have Fun With Prints:
Many women are afraid of wearing prints because they think prints make them look bigger. Believe me when I tell you that when you wear prints correctly, they are your best friends! You need to wear shapely clothing in prints for them to work.
And you can wear more shapely styles than you think because the print works to disguise the eye. You won’t know what is tummy and what is top! As a bonus, you don’t have to be so careful what underwear you wear because prints camouflage panty lines.
Have Fun With Styles:
Recently I designed a skirt that can also be worn as a dress. It is such a fun style that makes me feel both sexy and playful when I wear it. AND it is not tight. So many times, we opt for frumpy styles because we think that’s all there is. Nope… fun styles are to be had. You just have to be open to trying something different.
Have Fun With Color:
Many women stick with black because they think it is slimming. But did you know that black can drain your face of color and make you look older? Yikes! Try wearing color that suits your complexion. It can make you look younger instantly and it can lift your mood.
If you are afraid of wearing colors that don’t suit you, try some easy ones first. I have never met a woman who doesn’t look good in cobalt blue and turquoise. Once you build your confidence with color, you can go bolder. Click here for more tips on wearing color
