This chapter explores how menopause influences personal style and the need for self-awareness in clothing choices. It highlights the importance of a full-length mirror and offers guidance on dressing an ectomorph figure while adapting to body changes after 50.
Hey, fashion friends! It’s the only Holly you need to know; Holly Katz, coming at you with another fab episode of the Fashion Crimes Podcast! Today, we are diving into Part 2 of “Menopause & Style…Is This a Thing?”
We got such incredible feedback from last time that I just had to bring you more juicy tips and tricks because, let’s be real, we’re just scratching the surface here!
If you haven’t caught up on our previous episodes, especially our Kaftan and Kimono extravaganza from last week, go back and listen to 1episode 191, don't missing out on some major style inspo from the "Mrs. Roper" night
But enough about the past, let's get to the good stuff!
Today’s show is all about embracing the changes that come with menopause and how to stay stylish through it all. Trust me, ladies, it’s not just about skincare and avoiding that turkey neck – it's about self-care for your changing body, mind AND your style.
Key Elements of Menopause and Style
1. Understanding Your Changing Body:
As your body changes, it's crucial to adapt your fashion to feel comfortable and confident. Explore fabrics that breathe well and silhouettes that flatter your specific body type. It's all about EVOLVING your style as you age. Otherwise, you run the risk of getting stuck in a style rut.
2. Invest in Quality Elevated Basics:
Good foundational pieces like properly fitting bras and versatile tops can transform your look. Remember, comfort doesn’t mean sacrificing style!
3. Accessorize Wisely:
Accessories can and will be your best friend! They can update any look and help you feel current without overhauling your entire wardrobe. Think bold necklaces, stylish scarves, and eye-catching earrings.
4. Stay Active:
Incorporating regular weight bearing exercise into your routine not only boosts your health but also your confidence. If you don't build your muscle mass, you can lose it fast.
5. Mental Health Matters:
Menopause can be a rollercoaster, but maintaining a positive body image and mental health will reflect outwardly in your style. Dress in ways that make you feel happy and vibrant. Remember, shopping for fit first will never steer you wrong.
6. Try Something New
Fashion should be fun! Don’t be afraid to try new trends and step out of your comfort zone. You might find something unexpected that looks incredible on you.
