Shapeless and unfashionable: how stupid clothes turned me into an aunt

Surely you have favorite things and accessories that you have kept faithful to for many years. They could have been relevant several seasons ago, and after a while they started the game on the contrary and became “activators” of age.

I decided to conduct an experiment and find out: can the wrong clothes and poorly designed sets really grow up? Is it possible that old-fashioned shoes or glasses alone can turn a young woman into a not very young one?

In general, I will tell you about everything and, using my example, I will clearly show which wardrobe items are really aging, and what they should be replaced with. And I also pay attention to the details of the style - this applies to both makeup and hairstyles.

Red does not paint

I love scarlet lipstick and I know that it suits me. But in collusion with spectacular accessories - a bandage, glasses, earrings, red looks too bright and defiant. The feeling that I put on everything at once. There are too many accents on the face.

This is a very vivid example, on the topic: how a young woman turned into an aunt of an indefinite age. By the way, a short haircut is not always young, and in this case, it makes me older.

How to fix: wipe off lipstick, remove the bandage from your head, you can move it around your wrist as a bracelet and grow your hair :)

Better to change. A minimalist look always wins. Style in simplicity!

What jewelry is aging? And which ones betray a lack of taste and indicate that a woman does not follow fashion?

Primary school teacher style

An organza blouse with a bow is especially dangerous for women after 35. Despite her elegant and romantic mood, she throws on years, and with the wrong stylization, no trace of her grace remains. Even the lavender color, fashionable this season, does not save the image! In a blouse with a leopold bow and a pleated skirt, I look like a prim teacher.

I often confess my love to the length of the midi, but if you add just a few centimeters, you get a maxi. Such a skirt visually makes the figure more ponderous, and the image looks old-fashioned.

How to fix: we change the blouse for a shiny top, put on one spectacular earring and go to the party. And the view is completely different, don't you agree?

Not according to dress code

The vague office image on the left definitely does not suit me. In trousers of an outdated style and the wrong length, I become a woman of indefinite age and a mediocre figure. A white shirt, as if borrowed from a waitress, and beads in two rows are aggravating circumstances in this look. And the shoes! It seems like boats too, also black, but the difference on the left and right is colossal!

The algorithm for my transformation is extremely simple: I put on a daring striped vest, neutral-colored trousers (I adjust the length with the turns) and generously spice up the outfit with accessories. I tie the belt in a "sea" knot, and instead of a bracelet I choose a bright printed scarf.

Note: the vest and trousers on me are loose cut, but due to the fact that the wrists and ankles are open, the image turned out to be light, and the silhouette is slim.

Unsuitable accessories

The very moment when beads, no matter how much they cost, look like a penny trinket. Wrapped around the neck in two layers, they resemble old black and white photos - our mothers and grandmothers wore jewelry that way. A pile of details today, although in fashion, but in this context, any reference to the past is unprofitable, so I propose to shift the focus of attention to a laconic chain with round links. It is a versatile accessory that adapts to any look.

So how to avoid age-related mistakes in style?

It is important to learn how to choose clothes that are sized and at the correct length, one that creates a silhouette and emphasizes the features of the figure. And I also advise you to be bolder (especially in the summer!), Mixing trendy things and basic ones. Such combinations, as a rule, always successfully minus a couple of years. In general, keep up with the times and do not let him get around you!
