Clothing style for women over 40

In his youth, hardly anyone thinks about how he would look in a particular outfit. Practically all clothes go to young people, regardless of style and colors. But with age, a woman loses the ability to dress as she wants. But nobody forbids you to have a stylish image; you just need to follow a few rules.

Unfortunately, with age, the shape of every woman changes and is far from being for the better. Many are beginning to be ashamed of their body and hide it behind wide shapeless overalls. And this is a big mistake. Stylists and designers assure that for any figure there is a perfect style.

Woman balzakovskogo age can still look stylish and attract the attention of the opposite sex is not worse than young beauties. In order to comply with the status of a woman of forty years old and be dressed with taste, you need to consider a few nuances

• Remove from the wardrobe clothes of black flowers. This dark color, despite all its elegance, will add to you a few years. Of course, the black color is slim, but the old is even stronger. Replace it with brown, navy and gray.
• Add light colors to clothing. Clothing light shades adds freshness to your image. Include more pastel colors in your wardrobe.
• Pay attention to the quality of clothing and accessories. You are at an age when it is time to think about yourself. At last you can afford expensive clothes and jewelry. Prefer natural fabrics and jewelery. Set aside jewelry, as well as things made of synthetic materials.

Youth styles like hip-hop and punk are a thing of the past. Now it's time to give preference to more serious images.

The basic principle of this style is elegance. The name of the style speaks for itself. Classic suits most women and never goes out of style. If you are a business lady who spends most of the day in the office, then this style is the most suitable for you. But do not forget about the priority of light colors. Give your daughter a black jacket and get yourself a luxurious gray cardigan.

Pants of classic cut are perfect for women with any figure and any age. You can choose pants with arrows or straight pipes. If the dress code makes you wear a skirt, then a pencil model would be an ideal option.

In the summer, instead of classic length trousers, you can use short models with a turn below. To make the image more fun, use clothes with simple prints. These can be diamonds, a checkerboard and a thin strip.

There are several nuances that should be considered when forming a classic image:

• Minimalism. Leave the extra details for the image of young girls who are starting their life experiences. Do not experiment with style. If this is a classic, then your image should not contain signs of other styles.
• Neatness. Now you need to be more responsible about how your clothes look. No dented blouses and trousers, watch the state of their shoes, which should always shine. Ragged heels and blurred heels are also completely out of place.

Despite the fact that elegance is the main rule in the clothes of women after forty, casual style still has a place to be. At any age you want to relax, wear simple, lightweight shoes and comfortable jeans.

If young girls can afford almost any casual look, including a sloppy grunge, a woman after forty should not do so in any case.The main elements of the image in casual style are simple straight jeans and a plain T-shirt or long sleeve. About the fun and vivid prints that are characteristic of this style should be abandoned altogether.

Jeans can classic blue or gray tones. Best of all, if you choose straight jeans or models that are slightly narrowed down. Hooded sweatshirts should also be left as the hood in this case is a youth element and is not appropriate at all in the image of a mature lady.

You can wear classic-style moccasins or the same type of sneakers. No colored ballet shoes with sparkles and rhinestones should not be. Do not forget about the quality of clothes - only the best materials, mostly natural.

In contrast to the classic image, the image of an urban woman can consist of both monophonic elements of clothing and with the use of contrast. This style can combine the use of different types of fabrics, cotton and tweed, silk and jeans. By the way, jeans are an integral part of urban style. Denim trousers in classic blue or gray are the perfect complement to a light trench coat. Also, jeans fit well with a shirt worn over a light-colored T-shirt.

For women of forty years, there are many options for clothing for an evening trip to a restaurant or a solemn event. At this age no one forces you to give up short dresses, but elegant dresses are still considered to be of medium length or to the floor.

If you want to create an evening look that is both elegant and sexy, then prefer a dress with an open back. Make sure that the neckline does not cut off the waist line, otherwise the image will turn from sexy to vulgar. Open back in this case is the main decorative element. It may have an unusual shape or decorated with a bow.

For women whose age has reached the mark of forty years, a dress with a mermaid silhouette is perfect. Such a model has not gone out of fashion for a long time and is relevant for any evening event. The main decorative element is a multi-layered bottom of the dress in the form of a mermaid tail. If you are the owner of an apple figure, then choose a dress of this type with a basque.

Evening dresses with prints should be strictly avoided. They are completely out of place in this age segment. Instead of prints, dresses can be added with drapery, a train or embroidery. Such models look much more expensive and can make you the real queen of the evening.

In the rhythm of a big city it is so difficult to do everything that was planned for the day. Comfortable clothes are a good helper for active women who are constantly in a hurry somewhere and do not sit at all. High heels and narrow skirts are unlikely to allow you to move quickly and confidently. It was for such women that the urban style of dress was created. It is a bit like a classic, but it is more relaxed and comfortable.

Clothing for women should be selected not only on the basis of age, but also according to the type of figure. In women of forty years, there are three main types:

• The semi-fit type is a thinner waist and wide hips. The gluteal part most often has the so-called riding breeches. Speaking of clothes, she should have a semi-adjacent silhouette. Be sure to emphasize the waist, but this does not mean that clothing should fit the figure. It is enough that things repeat your silhouette. Skirts can two or chetyrehklinchatye, smell is also appropriate.

• The rounded type implies the use of clothes made of thick fabric that is able to hide well all the flaws of the figure. For obese women, elongated cardigans, straight skirts and dresses are well suited.In no case can not wear shorts and breeches, their length makes a strong emphasis on the fullness of the hips and legs. Trousers should be at least until the middle of the leg.

• The straight type of the figure is broad shoulders and narrow hips, and the waist is usually very poorly expressed. For such a figure, straight silhouettes of clothing that do not emphasize the waist are best suited. All elements must have clear lines. If you choose pants, models with clear arrows will be ideal. Jacket must have shoulder pads. Prefer things from dense quality fabrics: tweed, denim, brocade, flax.
