At any age, dressing like you are trying too hard sends a message of insecurity and shows you haven’t accepted your age. Looking over done over sixty, is the number one give away to aging. Accessories, styles, and details that are over done attract negative attention. You don’t want to get caught up in the “Baby Jane” syndrome. Stay away from mini skirts, (although with nice legs, lengths at the knee are acceptable), low cut tops, bustiers, lace fingerless gloves, and clothing that is too long or too baggy. If you can help it, try not to get too skinny. Although thin may be in, a few extra pounds will help fill in sagging and wrinkling. Tiny floral prints, black shawls, boobs falling near the waistline, hair buns,and cardigans closed with chains, look very matronly. Helmet hair and too much color on the face, lips, shadow and blush are very aging. Choose one area at a time to highlight and don’t over glitz. Tailored looks are more elegant than frilly or fussy. Wear color but don’t shy away from black. Textures that are mixed, like leather, crocodile, patent, fur, and lace, are timeless and look updated and elegant. When in doubt, wear chic black and white and accessorize with color.  Be careful exposing your upper arms and neck, tricky areas for most woman. Less is always more. Always opt for a natural look.
