Our latest reader style question asks what to wear to a wedding after menopausal weight gain. How can she look age appropriate in dressy clothing? What can she wear to hide her slight bump in size? And not look like an old lady? Let’s discuss… I am 55 years old. I am 5 ft 8" tall. I have always been quite skinny until menopause. I now weigh 146 pounds, and my body has changed. I have a bit of a muffin middle, and my arms are not as firm as they once were. I need some advice on what to wear to an upcoming wedding reception in July.

For our first round at Talk Thursday full of expert stylist's advice, our new weekly installment of style & lifestyle questions from YOU for us to contemplate, comes TWO questions that everyone could learn a thing or two from From Lisa- 'I like the shorts with platform heel look. I am not talking short shorts but at least a 5" inseam. What I am wondering is what age is too "old" to be wearing this? I am not looking for a cougar look. I do like this look, it looks good on me but when am I not age appropriate?' (via fashion advice) We agree, shorts paired with platform heels can be quite a killer look as they can highlight assets, offer a

You've got that perfect gala gown, you're in great shape, don't let your insecurities get the best of you! Last week actress Patricia Clarkson looked on par with other elegantly turned out celebs in Yves Saint Laurent at a fete for The Metropolitan Opera, and while she looked fantastic in a black-tie gala gown fit for a beauty, she took to hiding her hands and neck in a rather aggressive manner. >>More: Age Appropriate Fashion Tips She looks great, in great shape and all, no doubt about it, yet her plain black opera length gloves and caped neck give off a look that's closer to a gothic maven rather than a starlet trying to recapture old-school Hollywood glamor. If you're

The Urban Jungles of this world inevitably produce trends in fashion that make their way into closets across America. With fashion week upon us, I'm looking forward to the fashion parade outside of Lincoln Center. The young and restless work the stairs and promenade leading up to the tents ala Lady Gaga! Yet, there are elements that can be lifted from the wreckage such as the vintage print scarfs that reemerged during the fall 2011 fashion week in February. Tied to a handle of a petite bag or knotted at the neck, they can be quite beautiful: think Grace Kelly.

The Baby Doll Clothing Trend… Is it age appropriate fashion when you’re middle-aged?

The Baby Doll Clothing Trend… Is it age appropriate fashion when you're middle-aged? I am 55 years old, but I'm told I look 45 - who knew?! Since I appear younger than I am, I sometimes have a fashion dilemma about dressing appropriately for my age. Am I too old to wear a baby-doll top? It's a rich royal blue baby doll style blouse with long sleeves, a deep V-neck, and no embellishments that I'd like to wear with dressy black slacks or jeans. Also, am I too old to show a little cleavage? I'm not wrinkled there yet!(Anacortes, WA) Sweetness, you know I believe that we shouldn't dress for our chronological age but dress for the shape that we're

Age Defying Style: Age appropriate fashion tips

Age Defying Style... How to dress age appropriate with panache Dear Sharon: I am a 30 year old high school English teacher who feels stuck between fashion eras.

This week's Summer Spotlight is Ageless Style... I'll Have What She's Having: What the heck is dressing age-appropriate anyway when Ageless Glamour rocks it out of the house! Have you seen Sandra Bullock, Christie Brinkley, Raquel Welch lately? Really, they are hard to miss. Sandra Bullock is 49 and promoting Gravity, something she is surely defeating. 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

Derek Lam Spring 2014 While we started our initial Spring 2014 New York Fashion Week with the challenging crop top trend we've seen pop up on almost every runway, we thought we'd follow-up with some of the bona fide age-appropriate, and beautifully designed collections also creating abuzz. >> MORE: FASHION SHOWS AND RUNWAY REVIEWS From Derek Lam's crisp collection of pragmatic American sportswear to The Row's heady mix of worldly influences to Jil Sander Navy's pure lines, there's plenty for the over 30 set to take note of. And by that we mean stellar collections for the grown-up woman that have a modern lightness to them and help you justify that next purchase.

I'll Have What She's Having: Paris Fashion Week street style proves to have zippy classic age-appropriate inspiration with business chic takes on animal print skirts. Animal prints can have a fabulously downtown cool edge, like our street style ladies and their leopard pants from London Fashion Week, yet too much fierceness may get out of hand for work. But not always, especially if you follow the super chic cues from these two sophisticated ladies, above, snapped at Paris Fashion Week. Either like the red Balenciaga print, left, or the more classic, big cheetah, pictured right, choose your style weapons and work it! >> MORE: I'll Have What She's Having and Fashion Week Street Style When you want to wear a business chic & age-appropriate animal print skirt,

Sometimes age-appropriate casual chic can be a tough call to shop for... a FocusOnStyle reader shares how to work around it... Thanks for the article/photos on Susan Sarandon. Any advice for a retired 60 year-old female graphic artist, (60)? I like to be somewhat trendy/edgy while still being age appropriate and doing it on a budget. I've begun a capsule of sorts (turquoise, charcoal and some violet), and it helps a lot, but if you could recommend basic pieces one should have for a casual wardrobe that's stylish I would appreciate it. Our pretty reader I am petite, about a size 10/12 and gain weight at my waist/midriff. I don't know where to shop. Chico's is usually too glitzy for me, Jjill is
