Effortless Elegance: Fashion Tips for Women in Their 30s 40s and 50s and beyond.

Fashion is an art form that allows us to showcase our inner beauty and celebrate our individuality. It’s a language that speaks volumes without uttering a single word. It’s never too late to tap into your fashion prowess and make a statement that reflects who you are.

Fashion knows no age limits! We need to celebrate the beauty of every stage of life and embrace the power of style to elevate our confidence and express our unique personalities. Whether you’re in your 30s, 40s, or 50s or beyond, these are tips to guide your fashion potential and discovering inspiring ideas to create chic and timeless looks.

I want to share fashion tips and tricks tailored specifically for women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s and beyond. From flattering silhouettes to color palettes that enhance your complexion, these are some tips that I have learned that will help create looks that make you feel confident, comfortable, beautiful, and fabulous at any age. Get ready to turn heads, make a statement, and express yourself through your style. (This post contains affiliate links)

Embrace Your Body Shape:
Understanding your body shape is key to dressing confidently. Embrace your curves and focus on highlighting your best features. Whether you have an hourglass figure, an inverted triangle, or a pear shape, dress in a way that flatters your unique silhouette. (If you want to read more about this you can check out my post called “Accentuating Your Body Shape: Dressing Comfortably and Confidently to Embrace Your Unique Silhouette” by clicking HERE)

Invest in Wardrobe Staples:
Build a versatile wardrobe foundation by investing in timeless pieces that can be mixed and matched effortlessly. It is fun to wear trendy clothes, but the majority of your wardrobe should be made up of classic pieces. Essential items like a well-fitted blazer, tailored trousers, a little black dress, classic white shirts, and a quality pair of jeans are must-haves that will never go out of style.

Play with Colors:
Experiment with colors that complement your skin tone and bring out your natural radiance. While neutrals like black, white, and navy are timeless, don’t be afraid to incorporate pops of color into your outfits. Jewel tones, pastels, and earthy hues can add vibrancy and freshness to your overall look.

Prioritize Comfort:
As we age, comfort becomes increasingly important. Search for clothing made from high-quality fabrics that feel comfortable against your skin. Pay attention to details like stretch, breathability, and a relaxed fit without compromising on style.

Flatter with Fit:
Opt for well-fitting garments that enhance your silhouette. Avoid overly baggy or tight clothing. Tailored pieces that skim your body will create a polished and put-together look. Don’t be afraid to get clothes altered to achieve the perfect fit.

Show Off Statement Accessories:
Accessories have the power to transform an outfit. Invest in statement pieces like a chunky necklace, a stylish handbag, or a pair of eye-catching earrings to elevate your look. They can instantly add personality, panache, and pizzazz to even the simplest of outfits.

Mix Classics with Trends:
Combine timeless classics with current trends to create a stylish and contemporary look. Mix and match a classic blazer with a trendy graphic tee or pair your favorite jeans with a flowy bohemian blouse. This blend of old and new will keep your style fresh and relevant.

Don’t Shy Away from Prints:
Embrace the charm of prints and patterns to inject some personality into your wardrobe. Whether it’s florals, stripes, animal prints, or geometric designs, wearing prints can add visual interest and make your outfits more exciting.

Comfortable Shoes are a Must:
Invest in comfortable yet stylish shoes that provide support throughout the day. Opt for classic pumps, stylish flats, or elegant ankle boots. Don’t forget to add a pair of fashionable sneakers for casual outings and weekend adventures.

Confidence is Your Best Accessory:
The most important fashion tip is to wear your clothes with confidence and embrace your unique style. No matter what your style, when you feel good in what you wear, your inner beauty will shine through, making any outfit truly remarkable.

I hope these helpful fashion tips inspire you to explore new styles, embrace your body shape, and exude confidence through your clothing choices. Fashion is a form of self-expression, so have fun, be adventurous, and create looks that make you feel fabulous at any age.

National Lipstick Day July 29,2022

July 29th is National Lipstick Day in the United States! 💄

Revlon has been making their super lustrous lipstick for what seems like a million years. These classic lipsticks are sold in several different finishes such as matte and pearl, but the crème formula is my favorite. It has a comfortable feel that doesn’t dry out the lips as some lipstick formulas can. There’s no overpowering scent either. With 87 different shades to choose from (yes, that’s correct, 87 shades!), there’s definitely a perfect shade for you! Pictured below are five of my favorite revlon lipstick shades and finishes.

In this picture I’m wearing one of my favorite lipsticks Revlon 764 On The Mauve crème finish.

Another of my favorite lipstick formulas is the Maybelline color for all sensational lipsticks. Both Maybelline and Revlon, as well as many other brands are on sale for 20% off Target today.

While I love wearing lipstick, most days I leave the lipstick for special occasions, I can usually be found only wearing chapstick. I never leave home without a tube or two of chapstick in my pocket. While you’re at Target pick up a niveausa chapstick in the blue tube, it’s my favorite chapstick.

NYX is currently offering 20% off all lip products. Two of my favorite ones are the butter glosses in 15 Angel Food Cake and 36 Sorbet. Click HERE to take advantage of this 20% offer!


To celebrate National Lipstick Day Ulta Beauty has a buy one, get one 50% off of top brands such as TooFaced, Mac and Colourpop. Click HERE to take advantage of this week long sale.

Sephora doesn’t want to be left out they have 50% off select lip products for the lipstick holiday. They have brands like Armani, Yves Saint Laurent and lancomeofficial. I highly recommend the Yves Saint Laurent Slim Velvet Radical Matte Lipsticks

Before you head to bed after a long day of wearing lipstick, slather your lips in the cult favorite Laneige lip sleeping mask. You’ll wake up with lips that feel fully plumped and moisturized. There are four different types to choose from, but the original strawberry flavor in the pink tub is my favorite. Click HERE if you are interested in purchasing the Laneige lip sleeping mask.

What about you? What is your favorite type of lipstick? Do you love to wear different shades and finishes of lipstick or do you prefer to keep it simple and wear chapstick? Do you wear a lip mask while you sleep?

Fitness Isn’t A Punishment

Every Monday I post a “No Gym? No problem!” workout, and every week I say:

“Take 15-30 minutes and improve your day! Your heath and wellness is worth it!”

I really believe that!  I believe that your health and wellness are worth the time and effort it takes to eat healthy and exercise.  Fitness is not a punishment!  Skinny is not always “healthy”  Healthy for some might be being thinner, while others look a different way.

No matter what your healthy looks like it is worth fighting for!

When it comes to Pinterest, I am like Alice in Wonderland!  There is so much to see and so many things to pin and read… hours slip by in what seems to be just minutes.

Whoever came up with Pinterest is genius!  All the awesomeness of the internet in one easy to access place.  So many sites that I would never have found otherwise!

One of these such sites is Good Life For Less.  She has all these awesome posts about putting together great outfits and finding awesome sales.  One of my favorite posts is this one about making 9 different outfits out of 9 pieces of clothing.

I have similar pieces to most of the ones she suggests. I wouldn’t necessarily think to put them together the way she has.  Such a great idea!
