More Good Ideas on How Not To Look Old!

Published by Pat Mullaly at 10:25 am under fashion

Recently I posted some tips from the best selling book:

512qmwiwsfl_sl160_ How Not to Look Old: Fast and Effortless Ways to Look 10 Years Younger, 10 Pounds Lighter, 10 Times Better
Author Charla Krupp handles everything from hairstyles (get rid of the “helmet head look” people!) to skin care to the right pair of jeans to wear. Great advice for a “wanna look younger” person like me.

The post received a lot of great comments and hinted that you wanted more of her great advice. Here’s a few more to consider.

From Chapter 12: UNMATCH Your Wardrobe.

Nothing ages you like
• Outfits that are too matchy-matchy
• Dressing head to toe in one designer
• Looking like you tried too hard
• Looking like you didn’t try at all
• Clothes that are too young

This last bullet point needs some explanation:
Too Young! Here’s a list of FORBIDDEN FASHION ITEMS for every woman past the age of 30 who wants to look effortlessly chic and classy:

Ankle bracelets, belly necklaces, body piercing,boy shorts, collegiate sweats, t-shirts and caps, colored cowboy boots, Crocs (unless you are in your garden), Daisy dukes, earmuffs, ear piercing in multiples, flip-flops in the city, Go-Go boots (are people still wearing these?), leg warmers, micro mini dresses, micro mini skirts, mittens, nameplate necklaces, newsboy caps, scrunchies, super-low-riding jeans, tattoos, tie-dye anything (sorry Woodstock), tights in neon colors, toe rings, tube tops

The book has great advice, I’m only scratching the surface. The book is now on sale at Amazon.com. How Not to Look Old: Fast and Effortless Ways to Look 10 Years Younger, 10 Pounds Lighter, 10 Times Better

    My wardrobe consists of old jeans and recycled tee shirts…now there's a design idea…the tee shirts are all gray as well…not looking forward to getting back into work clothes….I'd rather spend my wardrobe money on flowers.
