Trend Thursday

Dress your age, yet still have fun.

I think it's incredibly important to continue being in fashion and dress stylishly till the day you die, but it is important to keep in mind some basic key rules. 

1. Dress your age. 

Do not borrow clothes from your daughter's closet or shop in the Junior's department if you are 30+ years old.

2. Don't dress conservatively just because you are older. 

Just because you are aging does not mean that you can't have fun with fashion and be experimental. 

3. Be your own person. 

Keep in mind when getting dressed in the morning that you still are the same person even though you may look or feel different than you did 30 years ago. Therefore, use these same rules that you did 30 years ago and if your gut tells you you look like you're trying too hard, then you probably are.

Trend Thursday

As soon as I found this photo, I realized again what the main importance of fashion is. It is important to have your own sense of style. 

Often we get side-tracked when looking at magazines of super skinny models doning the latest trends. We need to remember to take bits of their style and then create our own look. 

So when you get dressed in the morning, remember to keep in mind the latest trends, but don't copy them look by look. Take a key trend like the way they button their collar all the way to the top or wear socks with their heels or stacking their rings and then make it your own. By doing this, you will obtain a great sense of style.
