Every time I see an adult woman “over 50” in clothes strewn with rhinestones or sequins, I just want to take on the role of the host of a popular program and say: “Take this off immediately, because now either a magpie will attack you or gypsies.” will be stolen."
Why do some women, who have long crossed the threshold of the “Balzac age”, just want to try on the image of “expensive and rich”, putting on everything shiny, and more? Climax? Hormones? Want to look younger? Lack of taste? Let's figure it out together.
A bad example is contagious
A striking example of how you shouldn’t dress after the age of 50 in principle, and an overkill in terms of brilliant outfits, is Larisa Dolina. Having long since reached her fifth (or even sixth) decade, Larisa Aleksandrovna has a voice of indescribable beauty and strength, but she has no taste, if you pay attention to her concert outfits.
Shiny dresses, shiny skirts, tops, tights and even shoes - all this makes Dolina look like a New Year's firecracker, and not like an adult and respected singer. In tandem with a “mini” and a bare belly, Larisa Dolina’s outfits look completely ridiculous and sometimes vulgar.
Young ladies who dress the same way are most likely inspired by the example of the Honored Artist of Russia. But in reality it turns out that this is not what the Valley inspires pensioners...
There are many such examples of how not to dress among celebrities, both domestic and foreign. But there’s nothing you can do about them, but you can work on your image.
Glitter - yes, but is it beauty?
Of course, not all clothes with sequins or rhinestones worn by an adult woman create an eye-catching effect. The vision of others suffers most in the following cases:
- Everything is put on at once. Many women like to sparkle and shine, literally and figuratively. To resemble a star in their appearance, they wear clothes made of shiny and iridescent fabrics, complementing the look with massive jewelry decorated with rhinestones or precious stones. The effect, of course, is stunning, but there is no taste or sense of proportion here.
- A shiny dress worn on a figure that is far from ideal. Dear women who have already turned 50 and are just approaching this life milestone, remember: everything that glitters, shimmers and shines in the rays of light visually adds volume, expanding and shortening exactly what needs to be narrowed and lengthened. Even those who weigh 45-50 kg look much thicker in a dress made of silver brocade or iridescent satin.
- Too many details. Sometimes you can meet a correctly and harmoniously dressed woman, and her fingers, ears and neck are simply hung with jewelry.Such shine is not only inappropriate, but also dangerous to health and life - robbers find their victims precisely by such “marks”.
- Going to work is like going to a holiday. Of course, this is how you should treat a place that brings you cash income. But there is no need to dress for an office, government agency, or any other place where a woman over 50 might work as if she were going to a disco party. This will not only reduce the performance of your colleagues, for whom your outfit will bring sunbeams into their eyes, but will also significantly reduce your authority in front of your superiors.
So, it turns out that older ladies shouldn’t wear sequins at all? Even if you really want to? Of course you can! But just be careful.
Way out
For those who still do not want to part with the role of the bright sun and simply cannot refuse brilliant outfits, you should take on board the following useful tips:
- Attention to form. If excess weight has smoothly spread across all parts of your body, you can decorate with shiny fabric the area that has suffered the least from it. For example, if you have a pear-shaped figure, you can wear an iridescent top. Ladies with a large bust, on the contrary, should highlight the bottom. What to choose for an “apple”? Hat and shoes.
- A lot does not mean good. Overdoing it with too much glitter means ruining even the most expensive and fashionable look. Good things, and especially ones that shimmer and sparkle, should be in moderation.
- Combine correctly. If you choose a blouse with gold sequins, you should not complement the look with silver bugles on the skirt and mother-of-pearl in your hair. Remember the magpies and the gypsies.
You can dress the way you want at 50, 60, and even 90. But! You should always remember that in everything you need balance and a golden mean.Otherwise, you can spend the rest of your days either in the nest or in the camp.
