Eyeglass Dont’s: What eyeglasses to wear if you want to not look old [Quick Tips Video]

Eyeglass Don'ts
When it comes to wearing glasses, I'm sure you want to wear eyeglasses that make you look younger or at least glasses that don't make you look old. So, what's with the rimless glasses and farty, dated frames? Here's the thing, the financial expense of a good pair of prescription eyeglasses is actually in the prescription itself and not the frame. So by not modernizing your frame and skimping on style, you are creating an impression of not being particularly up-to-date or relevant in your abilities. By ignoring what your glasses say about you, you are actually making a bolder statement that you really don't care much about detail... not exactly the impression you want to make in your business.

Quick Tip Video: Hang On To Your Youthful Spirit!

The #1 way how not to look old and be perceived as relevant is pretty simple. Hang on to your youthful spirit! There's nothing that breaks my heart more than when I hear otherwise vital women saying, "I can't do this, "I can't wear that," "for my age," and other nay saying that olds them back. It usually happens when there is a big life event or around a birthday with a Zero. The second you stop living is the second  you start dying. Adapt to what life has to offer to suit your shape lifestyle and values of the current time. Look at life through the eyes of a child. More important than clothes is attitude. Hang on to your

Your Personal Style In A Time of Life Transitions

Top 3 ways to know when to transition your style as you move along in your life It's been a heady transformative week at my house for sure.

The Dress Your Age Question: How do you know if your personal stylist is right for you?

I was just on the most interesting phone conversation. One of my ladies, I'll call her Allegra, was talking to me about the C'est Chic Crash Course and if we were the right fit. She said, "I'm confident to know that you won't tell me to wear ridiculous pink glitter shoes. I know you'll get me and you're not 12." You see, Allegra is in her late 40s and was in personal stylist situation where the person she turned to for style guidance was more interested in styling others to be little clones of herself. And that youngish stylist happens to have a penchant for glitter and polkadots. Both swell on their own. When worn the right way. On the

Christie Brinkley is on the talk show circuit for "Sports Illustrated Swimsuit: 50 Years of Beautiful." She is beautiful and 59. Heidi Klum (not too bad herself) wore the same leopard Dolce & Gabbana dress that Raquel Welch wore months ago, and  'who wore it better' tabloid posts are all over Raquel as the winner. Oh, yeah, she's 73. Ok, I'm probably going to get some
