5 Fashion Tips for Women Over 50
A simple style guide to look your best into your 50s.
Your age does not dictate your style and you certainly do not need to be frumpy at 50. Your confidence levels increase as you get older – so why not harness that self-esteem and let your style reflect it. Fashion for the over 50s does not have to be drab or limited – great style is achievable regardless of your age. The secret is knowing what pieces work for you and knowing how to style them.
Golden Spiderweb have focused an entire collection on the over 50s and have teamed up with Lorraine Keane to show you how to style them with 5 Fashion Tips to have you feeling fabulous.
1. Don't be afraid to experiment
There is no shortage of choice available. Don’t get stuck in a rut, be open to new styles and trends. Take photos of yourself with you phone so you can see what new and different styles look like on you. Then work with what you like and leave what you don’t - have fun with fashion!

2. Make it look effortless
When you feel comfortable in what you are wearing it will always show. Once you are at ease in your clothes and they fit you well, you will feel more confident - that that is reflected in how you look.
3. Don't be afraid of colour & print
There is no need to hide behind dark colours. Move away from the greys and dull shades and brighten everything up with some colour, prints and designs. At 50 it is time to be comfortable with yourself and be braver with colour!

4. Wearing a dress or skirt? Mind your knees.
We all have parts of our bodies that we like and others that we don’t. Be honest and focus on dressing to flatter your shape. Bring attention to where you want to draw the eye – it could be a narrow waste that gives you a longer silhouette, or if you have great boobs opt for the v-neck top.
5. Chose where you want the most attention and draw the eye there
You may want to change your way of thinking about trousers – the best trouser shape is the straight leg – it flatters everybody shape and can lengthen and slim your legs. If you prefer a skirt, watch out for the knees – regardless of how great your legs are they can be difficult! If the hem is above the knee, tights can give a more flattering look.
