Kicking it up to a Shorter week! Hope you had a fabulous Holiday weekend. Head over to my Facebook page to see what I was up to! (Dear D’Arcy facebook) 

 

 

Tip: Switching your shoes from a wedge to a flat give a totally different feel to the outfit! Went from Date night outfit to Lunch or shopping!

 

 

Tuesday’s Tip= Wearing shorter shorts after 40! 

Let’s face it as we age our body and skin changes. Some people say you can’t wear shorter shorts after 40! I feel if you have great legs or work hard to stay fit go for it!  

I have some tips for wearing shorter shorts after 40 to stay classy and not like your trying to look 20! 

Use A great self Tanner, It helps hide flaws and Tan legs look great in shorts! Sorry and I know I’ll get flack for saying it but white legs are just a NO in your 40’s in shorter shorts! In your younger years you could get away with anything! Not now…Get a great self tanner! See my favorites in my prior blog post…self tanner’s 

Shorter shorts means a 5 inch inseam NOT a 3 inch cheek showing short!  I don’t care how great your body is leave the 3 inch booty shorts to the teenagers! 

To keep your outfit balance and too not look like your going clubbing don’t wear a sexy top with shorter short!  Yes.. I am wearing a off the shoulder top but its chambray and has a feel of day time. 

Wear a wedge it lengthens the leg and really does give the appearance of toner legs.

Pilates and the elliptical really do keep your legs in great shape! 

I am really lucky and never really had an issue with cellulite (stretch  marks yes!) I am not sure as to why not, I have read its a inherited trait but my tip would be I use coconut oil everyday in the shower after drying off! I also exfoliate my body with a sugar scrub every week!  

I hope your age doesn’t stop you from feeling like you can’t dress the way you want! You can be chic and fashionable at every age! OX, D’Arcy
