How to Look and Feel Good Over 50 — Without Chasing Youth Or Changing Who You Are (3 of 4)

Dress for How You Want to Feel, Not What You Are Expected To Wear

Outdated rules around age and fashion still linger. These rules limit women to toning it down or covering everything up in an effort to bring as little attention to themselves as possible. But style after 50 works the best when it focuses on personality, not compliance. Whether that manifests as an elegant dress, soft fabrics, bold prints, or tailored suites, the goal is internal resonance above all else. Because when you feel good from the inside out, the world resonates back with you.

Reclaiming Yourself Beyond Your Interpersonal Roles

Feeling sexy after 50 is all about getting in touch with who you are now at your core. By this age, many women have begun to lose touch with themselves because they are being everything for everyone, except for themselves. When the role they play with their children, families, partners, and careers begins to overshadow their relationship with themselves, it is time to shift back to focusing on what you want and who you are in this new stage of life. This redshift can start with doing things that belong to you and you alone. Wearing something beautiful, taking time for your body or allowing yourself to feel desirable in ways that feel good to you: all steps towards self-reclamation.
