12 Styling & Fashion Tips For Women Over 30
Before you start thinking about all that you own or go through your wardrobe, check out some of these fashion tips and tricks on what you should ‘forget and forgive’ (yourself for wearing) and what you should confidently replace them with, in your 30s. Ready to enter the grown-up world of style and explore the amazing options in clothes for women in their 30s? Here we go:
1. Ditch – BRIGHT, neon colours like lime, hot pink or shocking orange. You don’t want someone to burn their eyes, do you? If you must, wear them in small doses.
Replace With– Lighter colours like pastel pink, white, lavender or aqua blue. Such colours look stylish & graceful and will help you to add the desired style quotient in your look. Wear them with bright lipsticks and you’ll end up looking subtle yet sexy at the same time.

Replace With – Sheath and shift dresses – which accentuate your curves, beautifully and comfortably! Be it a brunch, formal event or a dinner party, nothing speaks more elegantly than this style statement.
