[quote=Anonymous]Find a good tailor. Truly. Clothes that are tailored for your particular body style will make you look so much more put together than clothes off the rack. I used to be a perfect size 6 on top and bottom. As I've aged, I'm more like a size 10 bottom, size 6 top. I get all my dresses tailored and many of my pants. It helps so much. Another thing to watch out for is that many stores (I'm looking at you, Loft and WHBM) have been going down this sort of bohemian, floral chic route lately. Lots of flower prints and ruffles. Those styles look lovely on people in their 20s. They make people in their 40s look 60. Avoid. Stick with classic styles in solid colors. And finally, it's easy to give in to the temptation to buy a lot of black. But black doesn't play well as you get older and your skin tone fades. Try navy or ivory. [/quote]
