Clothes have the power to alter the way we look. Clothes can make you look wilder, or more conservative, younger, or older.
Check out these fashion mistakes that make people look older than they really are. To start with:
Don’t wear oversized clothing
Wearing oversized clothing have many thinking that it’s a great way to hide a rounder belly or hide those imperfections. Sure it hides them but it does so in an unflattering way.
It does nothing for your confidence all while making you look older.
4 reasons this outfit works
- Make sure you wear your size, that’s the first tip here. If you wear a size too big it will only make you look bigger.
- Wear an empire waist to camouflage your mid-section.
- A V-neck that points downward so that really helps draw the eye to a vertical line.
- Pants that fit well make you look leaner and taller.
Don’t wear ankle boots with bare legs
Ankle boots are cute and trending. But it can cut you off the wrong way. These boots take to a certain style and look, but not to worry, there is a way to utilize them still – click next to see!
Create a long silhouette
Take that same outfit but this time, wear black tights to elongate your figure.
It shapes your legs even more and it goes really well with those ankle boots now. See how one small change can make a difference?
Don’t wear all white
It’s repetitive and dull. Almost like you’ll be in a science fiction movie.
Not to mention it makes you look bigger, and even a little older.
Go for darker denim
If you must wear the same color or maintain the same tone, go with dark denim. And we mean denim and denim, plus denim on denim.
Darker ones make you look slimmer, and way more youthful.
Don’t wear outdated jacket
They may look vintage and cool, but that doesn’t mean it suits you when you have it on. The fading, the shape and maybe even the material is outdated.
And that means you’ll look the same as well.
Wear an updated fitted jacket
Now look at how this jacket is almost the same style as the previous one, while looking so much better.
It hugs her better making her look slimmer and more trendy.
Don’t wear a shapeless dress
That lovely summer dress may be breathable and cozy but it is shapeless and doesn’t show off any curves.

Wear a dress with a V-neck
Go for dresses with a V-neck and a slit if you’re feeling a bit sexier. You can always sew it up if not.
The dress just flows down better, giving her a much leaner, more attractive look.
Don’t use an oversized purse
Aside from a big, bulky bag being bad for your shoulders and posture, this big, dark bag just makes you look outdated and out of touch with time.
Choose a cute smaller purse
A smaller, easy to carry purse is not only more practical, but is also more appealing to look at. It can carry everything you could need while matching your outfit altogether.
It’s almost like it’s not even there.
Don’t wear wide leg pants
Wide leg pants do nothing but make you look wider. It’s a frumpy vibe instead of a chic, sexy style that has heads turning.
Wear a fitted skirt with tucked top
Forget the pants and grab that fitted skirt. A nice suede pencil skirt brings out your curves without the need to show skin.
Tights with the skirt and ankle boots looks fantastic.
Don’t wear a shapeless shacket
No one denies how cozy and comfortable shackets are, but they don’t do so much to flatter a woman’s figure.

Wear a fitted modern jacket
This trendy moto jacket is stretchy, and looks really good on her. Way better than that lumberjack top. It’s a cool way of saying you’ve still got a bit of a rebel in you.
Even if you don’t.
Don’t wear a chunky boot
Another comfy wear but unless you’re dealing with snow or just have really cold feet, these boots will just make you look a little awkward since they ask for so much attention down there.
Wear a cute loafer
Trade those boots for a trendy loafer instead. Loafers are comfortable, easy to wear and remove, and are always in style. Loafers fit people from all age brackets and are a great addition to any wardrobe.
Don’t forget to accessorize
That’s a nice looking coat alright. But simply throwing it on with whatever it is you’re wearing does nothing to make you look better.
Here’s where accessorizing comes into play.
Add fun accessories
Leather gloves, sunglasses, a scarf and the right attitude transforms this look. Or go for color like this one, which just adds to a really fun, holiday inspired look that’s super eye catching and youthful.
Don’t wear distressed jeans with holes
These are common and maybe even trendy (for some). But it’s just drab and dull, and does nothing for you in terms of looking stylish.
Nor does it make you seem younger even though younger girls like this look.
Wear a dark jean
A darker pair of jeans is way more slimming. It helps make you look leaner. That shirt tied at the bottom coupled with aviator sunglasses has this look taking a few years off her. Go for it!
