Hi Ladies - I need a little fashion advice. I went to a Holiday breakfast yesterday and felt like I could not pull a fun creative outfit together. I need to shop on a budget but want to add some fun eye catching pieces. I am over 40 so by eye catching I mean trendy colors and styles. I would wear skinny jeans and boots this time of year but want longer tops that I have no idea where to find. I have a closet full of clothes and surely I can use some pieces. Could you recommend any fashion blogs that help you get creative and stay on trend? It is still close to 80 degrees here in Arizona and I can't even have fun with jackets and scarves yet! Hopefully that will change...for a couple of weeks at least. I also need help in the shoe department - I can't wear heels over 2 inches, I live in Jambu shoes but they are a bit chunky and do not look great with skinny pants. Any and all suggestions will be graciously accepted! Thank you and I hope you all have a great Holiday Season!
This is exactly what you are looking for. Make sure to check out the forum and the archives.
My favorite fashion blog hands down is cupcakes and cashmere. It's fashion and so much more. http://cupcakesandcashmere.com/kpicasa-outfits/
As for dressing age appropriate and still looking great, trying things on and looking in a full length mirror that can give you almost a full 360 degree look at your self is the best.
I love red and gold for the holidays. I have a few statement pieces that say WOW and I am able to dress up that classic white shirt with awesome jewelry and I have some pretty amazing red sweaters and a sparkly gold turtleneck too.
Ballet flats are still fashionable and super comfortable and look good with skinny jeans. I shy away from wearing longer tops with my skinny jeans but instead opt to wear a suit jacket instead or button down sweater. It adds just the right amount of style to any outfit I'm throwing together. I hope this helps.
One of my friends just sent me this address for her daughter-in-laws fashion blog. The first page is about voting for her to win a trip to NY. click on Daily Reads for more fashion advice.
I'm so glad you asked this question! I live in southern FL and have the same problems.
