However there are certain DONT'S for the women over fifty while choosing dresses too because maturity must show off even while being fashionable. So, pay attention to these tips about avoidable fashion clothes too.
- Do not dress up in pigtails, knee high socks or any other girly fashion dresses like leather pants, low waist jeans, gypsy skirts etc.
- While choosing colors of your choice, avoid the fluorescent bright colors- like fluorescent pinks and greens. They will only highlight your wrinkles more and show your desperation to look young. After all when older women over fifty plus age can look young without showing off their efforts why commit fashion blunders.
- Avoid too tight shirts, jeans and slacks.
- Avoid mini skirts and shorts.
- Also avoid baggy, shapeless clothes- they too will not add grace to your mature 50 plus aged body. You have to choose the right fit- not too tight, not too loose!
- Older women over 50 should also avoid mini-prints, too many ruffles, horizontal stripes and bigger than normal handbags.
