I don’t know about you… but I’m at that age when I wonder (often) whether Im dressing too old for myself… Actually i sometimes I wonder if I go the other way too…

And when faced with clothes choices in the shops I wonder how on earth I’m supposed to wear it. Is it just me?

Was hitting 40 the big change? The stuff in high street shops seems aimed at younger women and the things I have in my wardrobe often depress me…

Which is why today I’m thrilled to be joined by Claire Evans of Claire Kay Styling

Are you stuck in a style rut?

Are you afraid of looking frumpy?

Here are 3 tips to help you fight the frump.

1) Wear clothes that fit.

Now, this may sound obvious, but very often we hide behind clothes that are too big. When we wear oversized clothes, we look oversized.

Also, avoid wearing anything too small. Worry less about the size on the label, and focus on the fit of the clothes, see what works for your body shape.

2) Use colour wisely.

Be very wary of black, it may be an easy choice as it goes with everything and can may you look slimmer, but you need to consider whether it actually works for you. The wrong colours will make you look older and tired.

Not sure which colours work for you? Get in touch for more information about colour analysis.

3) Get a bra fitting.

All great outfits start with the right fitting bra. If you’re not wearing the right bra, it’s going to show. Think of your bra as an investment.

You wear your bra pretty much every day, the right one should give you comfort and confidence. It can give your outfit a more expensive and polished look, so it’s worth the investment.
