Fashion Forward for Boomers


Clothes That Say YOU!

You know how CHALLENGING it can be to find the wonderful looks you want in clothing!  It doesn't matter whether you're heavy-set, thin, short, tall or anything in between.  You want looks that do the following:

-   Help you look good
-   Fit the occasion
-   Let you look stylish
-   Complement your coloring
-   Be very comfortable
-   Turn heads (YES, you still want people to look twice at you!)   And more!

Try the retailers or apparel providers below to get your best look with their clothing:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  If you love color, like having stylish clothing, accessories, and jewelry then give Chico's a try.  I have received more compliments and watched heads turn with my Chico style going on! 

 Maybe you'll like their tops, skirts, cropped pants, and matching jackets.  Their items are reasonably priced and returns are easy at their website or in-store. Check out www.chicos.com.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
Midnight Velvet is an online and catalogue source that has an excellent image mix for baby boomer women with style!  I recommend their dresses and tops.  Nice suits too.  Surprisingly, you can find elegant home accessories to breath a fresh look into your abode.  Most of their shoes and handbags are made of synthetic material, so keep that in mind. 

These Midnight Velvet tops are terrific for us!  They give us some fit, cover our tummies, and can be worn dressier, for work, or casual.  Click on: www.midnightvelvet.com.

Interested in jeans with great FIT?  How about ones that flatten our pooch and firm our bottom?  Not Your Daughters Jeans answers our prayers.  They've got Lift Tuck Technology designed to make you look and feel a size smaller! Good waist, tighter butt, slim legs - OUR STYLE! Go to www.nydj.com to see several different styles, colors, and jean cuts that are right for you!  Not cheap, and worth every penny.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Are you looking for a little something to rein your body in; give it that smooth undergarment fit?  Spanx will do it for you every time!  Look into their Body Shapers; tank bodies, skinny britches, and high-waist capri fitted underwear for the sleekest appearance in your clothing.  Click on www.spanx.com.




---------------------------------------------------------------------  Coldwater Creek has had a conservative look for quite some time.  Now more style is seen in their apparel.  Great jackets and pants.  Dresses for a night out, like the little black dress, are delightful too. They offer quality apparel at a fair price.  See www.coldwatercreek.com.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Never be afraid to try something new!  Some e-tailers have the fit and unique look you hunger for.  Venus.com has some cute summerwear at great prices.  This black & white summer jacket is playful, different, and rocks when you're on the yacht or out for the evening.  Pair it with black or red capris and you're good to go!  Though you may consider several of Venus items quite youthful, be open-minded about seeing something that says YOU!  Venus also has a good return policy; 90 days and your money will be refunded.  Enjoy at www.venus.com.

Are you the church woman who gets excited about suits and hats to fellowship in on Sundays?  Boomer women can be fashion divas while giving the Lord some praise!  Womensuits.com will coordinate you well with their affordable suits and gorgeous hats.  Additionally, these suits work well with professional occasions, weddings, and more.

One of the most FUN and interesting items to wear for casual outings, around the house, or out for a glorious evening are LEGGINGS.  Oooo, you know it and they work great for US!  Danskin offers very high quality leggings to suit almost any size.  Danskin's colors are limited.  But find leggings in colors that match your flowing blouses and tank tops to give you a finished, carefree style.  In the summer you don't need the jacket, yet on cool evenings a light wrap with top flowing thigh-high and leggings are just beautiful!  Go to www.danskin.com.

Catherines, Lane Bryant, and Cacique are all part of the Charming Shoppes specialty retail for women.
