What is it to be 30-something today?

  

In a woman’s life, 30’s is that particular phase where fashion predicaments arise: ‘Is this dress too short?’, ‘Do I look like an old 20-year old?’, ‘Am I over accessorized?’ These questions are inevitable, considering the major changes in personal as well as professional front. It is important not to cross that thin line between glamour and sleaze. There are things to consider, – body type, lifestyle and age. Not every fashion trend works for an individual, so it is crucial to decide what looks good on what. So, what’s a 30-something girl to do? Simple – step into the beautiful world of grown-up style.

Fashion for 30’s is all about dressing stylishly, yet not provocatively. Have a look at your closet and give away your micro mini dresses, tights in neon colors, tube tops, super low riding jeans and boy shorts. There are things that, even if you have a nice body to pull them off, begin to look rather weird when you grow up. Women in their 20’s can get away with cheap clothing (clothes that are low-costs), but women in 30’s can’t afford to wear tacky clothes at any cost. Good quality clothing makes a difference especially in terms of fit and tailoring. One rule you should steadfastly follow is: FIT is everything. You can invest a fortune in designer clothes, but they would look cheap if they’re ill fitting. And who says high heels no longer apply? 30’s is the stage where women are either on the peak of their career paths, or on their way there. High heels make you look tall and sophisticated; therefore it is also an essential part of your grown-up get up. It’s all about balancing sophistication with sexiness. Sometimes, less is more. If you’re wearing a sexy top (not too revealing), skip the miniskirt. If you want to show a little leg, go for a more covered top. Remember, sophistication doesn’t require looking old.

Fashion is a combination of your attitude and your attire. It is a great challenge for a woman to flawlessly maintain her role at home (single or not) without compromising her image outside of that. The stylish woman of today knows perfectly how looking good and fashionable has its own rewards in this world.
