Age is Just a Number: Reasons to Embrace Your Personal Style

The fashion industry, indeed, is a confusing place. Trends seem to go in and out of existence faster than you can grasp them, and sometimes it feels like some styles are reserved for certain age groups. That’s simply not true and you can always experiment with styles. Who knows, you can come up with a new trend in no time.

Fashion is a form of self-expression. Something you can embrace to show your personality and inner confidence. It is a language that transcends age groups and allows you to tell the world who you are. So, ditch the outdated rulebook and come up with your own personal style.

• Bows & Ruffles: People relegate ruffles and bows to just children’s clothing but these are the things that, when attached to a blouse or dress, can add a touch of whimsy and femininity to your style. Remember the puffy-sleeved clothes you ran away from as a kid? Give them one more chance because they are back in fashion and can add a touch of fun and youthful energy to any outfit.

• Overalls & Jumpsuits: Jumpsuits and tracksuits are the hype because of the level of comfort that they provide. Whether you’re looking at a classic denim overall or a chic linen jumpsuit, they can keep you cool and comfortable all day long without compromising style.

• The Corset Comeback: Corsets are back in style with Bridgerton rocking its way on Netflix and you don’t need to go full historical romance style to incorporate them in your wardrobe. A corset tank top, dress, or a piece with built-in boning adds structure to any outfit so you look your absolute best.

• Platforms & Lug Soles: Platforms and lug soles are no longer restricted to the grunge era. They add an edge and personality to any look no matter what you’re wearing. You can wear chunky Chelsea boots with flowy maxi dresses to a pair of tailored trousers.

• The Timeless Appeal of Mary Janes: Mary Janes have transcended generations from the classic strap pumps to the trendy chunky sock and babydoll style, Mary Janes can be worn anytime, making them a perfect addition to your wardrobe.

• Sequins for Every Occasion: Sequins aren’t just for party nights. They add a touch of glamour and playfulness to any outfit, no matter when you are wearing them. Sequined tops, dresses, or even shoes are the perfect way to make your outfit pop.

• Show Some Skin with Confidence: Feeling confident and want to show some skin? Go for it! Whether it's a plunging neckline, a daring slit, or a crop top, rock what makes you feel good. Age is just a number, and confidence is always in fashion.

• Over-the-Knee Boots: Thigh-high boots are the classic choice as they add a layer of sophistication to jeans, leggings or even maxi skirts.

• Embrace Bold Prints: Don’t run away from statement prints. Play with bold colours and prints, mix and match florals with stripes or go all monochromatic with a geometric print.

• Crop Tops for Every Body: Crop tops aren’t just for celebrities. The key is to choose something that goes well with your body and style, whether it’s a bustier silhouette or your favourite graphic tee knotted up to show off your abs. Pair it with high-waisted jeans, or a flowy skirt, so that it looks a bit more put-together.

• The Power of the Breezy Frock: Frocks are the classic wardrobe staple as they come in a variety of styles, colours and lengths, making them versatile. Wear them on their own or layer them up with a vest, blazer, or your favourite accessories.
