Looking slim and young is the dream of every woman, regardless of how old she is - 30, 40 or 50. That is why you should pay attention to the choice of wardrobe, haircut and make-up.
How do you look like Miss Perfection at 40?
Hairstyle, make-up - sets the style and “speaks” about the age. Clothes can also be old-fashioned. Look through fashion magazines to keep abreast of fashion colors, accessories and trends in general, this does not mean copying, but buying new things will make it easier for you to navigate. You need to learn how to choose the right scarves, bags and jewelry to look young and modern. And this is all from magazines and TV shows, insta blogs.
Figure
For your figure: start with your underwear. These days, specialty panties, tights, bras and bodysuits serve the same purpose as corsets in the 19th century: to improve the shape of the figure. Buy shapewear, grace or semi-gravity, or maybe shorts, that is, the underwear that will hide unnecessary volumes.
Choice of fabric
Any thick dense fabric (tweed, corduroy, velvet) adds 2-3 sizes. Shiny and satin fabrics plump. Cheap synthetics are not acceptable, especially if you are over 40. If you want to look young and give the impression of a woman who is self-sufficient, fashionable and young, then give preference to natural fabrics.
Successful prints and colors
The drawing on the products should not be very large - it makes you look fat. This also applies to other accessories, jewelry, bags - their size should be medium or slightly less than medium size. The exception is glasses - we recommend large ones. You shouldn't give up prints, they make the image brighter.
Give preference to monochromatic things of pastel and interesting shades, mostly light ones - they are young, and always in harmony with your skin, eyes and hair color. We recommend reading about colors that make your look more interesting and elegant.
Choosing clothes after 40, photo
A win-win option is a straight skirt just below the knees. Create an extra focal point in your leg area with sophisticated knee-length cuts. Pencil skirt, trapezoid and asymmetric plus fitted jacket, blazer, jacket, summer T-shirt.
The jacket should not be straight, otherwise it will make your figure shapeless. It should be as long as the thigh and end just above the widest point on the thigh. Do not hide your volume under shapeless jackets, on the contrary, accentuate the waist, but not too sticky silhouette.
Do not wear trousers and flared jeans, only if it is a small flare from the hip to the hem, it will give the impression of an overall slimness of the lower body. A good choice is trousers without a belt, with a side zipper. Fit at or slightly below your natural waist. Choose straight cuts with loose legs. Do not wear trousers that sit above the waist, give up the folds at the waist, from the narrowing of the legs to the ankles. Jeans color - dark or classic colors.
Look for open cutouts that make the gazes glide up and down at you, focusing on the area from neck to shoulders and décolleté. A dress with a wrap and a kimono will work well, the chest in this case does not seem smaller.
Also, a dress-coat is a straight, single-breasted, open-top or with an English collar, knee-length. Knitted dresses with a V cut. We also recommend asymmetrical styles of dresses, shirts and blouses, they distract and scatter the eye, without focusing on problem areas.
Choice of shoes
Shoes with "glass" heels, now they are very relevant, especially in bright colors.Do not forget about graceful shoes with steady heels, stylish summer models without heels, sports shoes. You can look young and slender, the main thing is to set a goal!
