How to Be Stylish in Your 50s

Supermodel Cindy Crawford turned 56 on February 20, and her example proves that the numbers in the passport mean nothing and, with the right attitude towards herself, any woman at any age can look stunning. While Crawford does not try to look too fashionable or young, she chooses perfect outfits that emphasize her dignity. So, let’s unravel all her fashion secrets together.

Sheath dress

Cindy Crawford has been in the modeling business since the age of 16. During this time, she has graced several hundred covers of leading fashion publications and has already walked the podium countless times. This colossal experience allowed her to work with the best professionals in the industry and, with the help of their advice, competently build her wardrobe – without frills and too much severity. So, one of its foundations is a sheath dress. Despite perfect legs, Crawford prefers dresses that are slightly below the knee. Among her favorites are monochrome outfits with various combinations of black and white. If she chooses a color, most often, it will be one pure shade – orange, red or blue.

Stilettos

Cindy Crawford’s height is 177 centimeters, but she still loves high-thin stilettos and wears them almost constantly. Her choice often falls on classic pumps that visually lengthen the legs. Crawford has no restrictions when choosing colors – from light beige to gold or neon crimson.

Little black dress

Cindy Crawford is almost impossible to see in things flashy and daring. Yet, for solemn occasions and many public events, she often chooses a little black dress, proving by her example that, after all, every woman should have it in her closet and not just one.

Jackets

Cindy Crawford’s wardrobe is also hard to imagine without jackets with an accentuated shoulder line, noticeable fittings, and a perfect cut. Among her favorites are Balmain jackets, which she pairs with skinny leather trousers and stiletto sandals. A similar set is popular among models of all stripes and ages, but unlike young girls, Crawford looks elegant and sexy in these clothes.

Flared jeans

Informal photos of Cindy Crawford prove that she loves and knows how to wear flared jeans that present her figure in an even more favorable light. She combines jeans with the same basic things – knitted tops, leather jackets, or the already mentioned jackets.

Overalls

Cindy Crawford always emphasizes her thin waist. It is done by overalls, with the help of which she often replaces evening dresses on the red carpet. One of the best examples is the black and white Emanuel Ungaro jumpsuit that Crawford chose for the Asian premiere of Hospital in the Sky.

Denim shirt

Karl Lagerfeld once said that Cindy Crawford combines classic beauty and the image of “every American’s dream girl.” The supermodel simultaneously confirms his words with the ability to look like a girl next door and a princess. She wears a wide denim shirt, loved by all the Americans, so simply and elegantly that you should take an example from her.

Bikinis

Cindy’s rule number one is to be comfortable whenever you’re wearing something. She still always wears bikinis; however, she doesn’t feel comfortable wearing short skirts.

Be Chic in Your 50s

Some people define “aging gracefully” as embracing grey hairs and developing a fondness for flowing garments. But, for Cindy Crawford, it entails disregarding the “rules” and choosing what seems right and real. So no matter whether you’re 30, 40, or 50, the golden rule is to dress however you want without thinking much about the others. Make sure you’re comfortable in whatever you’re wearing, put your chin up, and conquer the world!
