Need some inspiration? There’s a great article at The Huffington Post with pictures of 6 of the world’s most beautiful women. Take a look and see if you would agree with their choices and let us know.
We’d like to add Diane Lane. She’s such a natural and always looks so happy and peaceful.
Diane Lane - a natural beauty
Diahann Carroll is another favorite. She’s classy and glamorous. Loved her in the TV show “Julia” in the 60′s and on “Dynasty” in the 80′s.
Diahann Carroll - always classy
I ( Deborah) have been reading her book called The Legs Are the Last to Go: Aging, Acting, Marrying, and Other Things I Learned the Hard Way, and it’s terrific. She’s a true fashionista. She loves clothes and all the the drama that goes with dressing up. It’s a fun read.
Sure you want to look classy and hip after 40, but sometimes you just want to sexy too…like when you are going out for a nice dinner, or you’ve been invited to a party, or if you are single and going on a date. (Diane Lane has got sexy down pat!)
Here’s a make-over gallery we found that does a great job of giving you top tips to looking sexy after 40.
Does long hair on older women look sexy or silly?
Christopher Hopkins, “The Makeover Guy” has it right when he says it’s really not about age.”It’s a combination of how young you appear, hair quality, and whether longer hair looks good on you at all, regardless of age. If you’ve never looked good in long hair, you likely never will. But if you’ve always had long hair and it’s still holding out pretty well, meaning it’s thick and shiny and can be worn without a lot of what looks like work, then likely you can still wear it well.”
So true! Nothing worse than seeing a gal with scraggly long hair, trying to hang onto her youth by wearing long hair just for the sake of long hair. On the other hand, we can think of a handful of clients and plenty of celebs over 40 who look stunning with long hair.
Long hair can look Sexy, but be forewarned. You need lots of time and money for all the super high maintenance involved. Just look at the celebs who are LONG on style!
