Style expert tells women over 50 how to look younger

Mature women have many options when it comes to looking younger. From haircare to skincare, makeup to cosmetic treatments, anti-ageing is totally accessible.

Some experts believe that a simple wardrobe revamp can also reverse the clock.

Deirdre, founder of 50 & Fabulous with My Friend Deirdre, spoke exclusively to Express.co.uk about the two accessories that can transform a bad outfit.

The YouTube creator claimed that a simple accessory can make the difference between a aging, frump outfit and a youthful, flattering one.

She told Express.co.uk: “A really easy way to make sure you’re not on the road to Frumpsville is to belt your outfit. 

Deirdre suggested that a loose-fitting piece can be “instantly uplifted to take away the frump factor” with a simple addition of a belt.

She asserted: “Belts can transform a shift dress, a tunic and particularly a shirt dress.”

The expert’s next tip was to invest in some stylish headwear – but it’s important you know what works. 

She said: “Hats are wonderfully glamorous but also a minefield when it comes to knowing which shape to wear.

“For more formal events, asymmetrical shapes are uber-flattering, but avoid looking too ‘matchy-matchy’ with a matching hat, bag and shoes.

“For more everyday looks, my style tip would be to get inspiration from menswear, like a fedora hat, which is endlessly flattering on a woman. You just can’t go wrong with a stylish fedora.

“They frame your face but don’t overwhelm your features. Choose a colour which suits your skin tone and complements your outfit.”
