One question I'm always asked by women of a certain age group is how to look stylish and age appropriate. Not wanting to dress like their daughter but not wanting to look like their mum either is a real concern for many women. My
response is always that style is ageless. Using the current trends to INFLUENCE your wardrobe rather than have them dictate what you should wear, is a pretty good rule to stick to. There are a few others, but that would involve a longer post and I've got a 6 yr old that needs picking up from school and taking to her swimming lesson.....I digress....
Anyhow, whilst out and about in Bath yesterday I came across the most amazing woman who's style was so unique and was carried with such confidence that I was captivated by her. Her name is Jean Woods and she's a very stylish 75 years old!
What do you think of her style? To me, she embodies everything that clothes should do: express your unique personality, send a message about who you are, be fun and give you confidence. Jean certainly says all of those things doesn't she?
