Perfect look for Sophisticated Women Over 50

This is a really great season for women in their mid years of life! I call these women confident, bold and carefree. Women in their seasoned years of life know what they like and are classic, minimalist, and yet are youthful in many ways. Here is the look for women who want to keep their style clean, sleek yet age appropriate. These looks can be found on ASOS with accessories and shoes from Aldo. Happy Findings!

Go for bold prints balancing it out with a sleek, pressed button down top. Pair it with kitten heel pumps and your look is complete.

Although this pairing looks good on any age, my fabulous 50+ ladies can pull off this outfit while looking fresh, vibrant and full of life!

The classic cape blazer coat works seamlessly on seasoned women. Pair this look with a simple pair of jeans and a nice crossover draped blouse. Complete the outfit with a pair of cheetah print tab flats and a chunky necklace.

One last thing! Whether you are going out to run errands or out around town, don't forget a little makeup. Here are a few picks women over 50 look great in. Remember, less is more, don't overdue the makeup with harsh contouring and shimmers as this enhances the fine lines and wrinkles in aged skin.

As the skin ages it becomes more dry and lack the elasticity it use to have. Before putting on foundation use a moisturizer and skin renewal cream-or if you are lucky opt for a foundation that has all three-moisturizer, SPF and has skin rejuvenation ingredients. Also you don't want to forget a good primer as well, and if your skin tends to be on the oily side-a foundation that is specific to your skin type.

One of the mistakes I see women over 50 make while applying makeup is the type of blush they apply to the cheeks. When using blush, if your skin tends to be dry, go for creme blushes as this appears more subtle on the cheeks and give an illusion of smaller pores. If your skin type secretes more oils you want to make sure your skin is properly moisturized and hydrated as this brings balance to the skin. Also when using powdered blush, opt for non-shimmering blushes and powders. The shimmer in any makeup product only enhances the pores and fine lines or wrinkles. 

Eye makeup is a must! As the eyes begin to age, dark circles and creases set in. To create a more youthful and awaken look grab neutral matte eyeshadows. Stay tuned for the next blog posting for more specifics on what colors and makeup look best on skin tones!

Although we all love bright lipsticks from time to time, women of certain age should be careful when applying colorful lipsticks. Bright Hues look great when applying it to younger aged women, however, when applying the same shade of lipstick, can sometimes be aging and bring out the flaws around the lips of women that are older. Instead pick natural toned lipsticks that have a slight tint which gives off a natural yet youthful appearance.

This completes the perfect look for any sophisticated woman over 50! You can find all of these great looks at Asos, Aldo, MAC makeup department store, and Ulta beauty. Happy Shopping! Please feel free to comment, like and post pics of what you find, if this has been helpful to you.
