When the weather gets cold I break out my Pacific Northwest favorite fashions from REI. but that doesn't always look too stylish. So where and how do we look and feel our best for dressier occasions and Holiday parties?  I did a little research and this is what I'm finding!

Fashion doesn't have an age limit, and women over 40 are embracing their style with confidence and flair.

Whether you’re updating your wardrobe or simply adding a few key pieces, there are timeless trends that can help you look and feel your best. Here are some fashion tips that are perfect for women over 40.

 Embrace Tailored Pieces

Fit is key! Opt for well-tailored clothing that flatters your figure, whether it’s a perfectly cut blazer or a pair of high-waisted trousers. Tailoring elevates your look and adds sophistication, making any outfit feel polished.

Classic Neutrals with a Pop of Color

While neutrals like black, navy, and beige will always be chic, don't shy away from adding a pop of color to your wardrobe. Bold reds, rich emeralds, or deep purples can add vibrancy to your look, whether in accessories, scarves, or statement pieces.

Invest in Quality Fabrics

As we age, comfort becomes just as important as style. Choose fabrics that feel luxurious and breathable, like silk, wool, or cotton blends. These materials not only look great but also offer comfort throughout the day.

Embrace Denim in Different Cuts

Denim is a wardrobe staple, but it’s all about the right fit. High-rise jeans, wide-leg trousers, and tailored denim jackets are great choices for a flattering silhouette. Pair them with a blouse or sweater for a balanced look.

Fashion is all about feeling confident, and these style tips will ensure you look effortlessly chic while embracing the trends that make you feel your best.
