Y’all! I’m in my 40s and struggle with trying to find appropriate clothes for my body and my age at my local department stores. Who’s with me? I struggle finding flattering clothes that fit my awkward body. I usually wear sweats or “yoga” pants with t-shirts to hide my large muffin top. And don’t get me started on the mom pouch! Ugh!
I have scoured Amazon and other fashion websites to bring some ideas of how you can flatter your body (and your age). Just because we’re aging beautifully, doesn’t mean we need to dress down. We can dress up and look good while doing it! From high waist jeans, with a tucked white T and fashionable blazer, to a midi dress. The options are endless. Why not dress like you’re ready to take on the world, instead of at home, on the couch in your PJs? Let’s do it!
Some clothing trends for women in their 40s include: (per Google AI)
- Blazers: A blazer can elevate a simple outfit, such as jeans and a t-shirt. Blazers can be colorful, textured, or vintage.
- Modern suits: A modern suit can add a chic and elegant look to a wardrobe.
- High-quality basics: Well-fitting jeans, crisp white t-shirts, and classic blazers are all good options to invest in.
- Bold prints and bright colors: Adding bold prints and bright colors to outfits can add interest.
- Mixing and matching: Mixing and matching different textures and fabrics can create unique looks.
- Subtle incorporation: Incorporating trendy pieces subtly, such as a trendy color in accessories or one statement piece.
- Mixing classic with trendy: Pairing a classic blazer with a trendy top or vice versa.
