Men notice when women have their own sense of style, and we find it cool, interesting, and attractive. Here are 5 fashion tips for women in their fabulous 50's and beyond.

Everyone has seen articles giving women in their 50's and beyond fashion tips on how to stay sexy and feel good about their choices. While I don't claim to be a fashionista, I want to offer a perspective from a man on what makes him turn his head and say "WOW." Men notice when women have their own sense of style, and we find it cool, interesting, and attractive. Here are my 5 fashion tips for women in their fabulous 50's and beyond: 1. Her own style It doesn't matter what the style is, as long as she's into it. It's all about confidence. There is nothing better than seeing someone own a fashion look that others want to copy. Be fearless! 2. The Importance of Your Signature: Earrings Earrings make a personal statement about your taste and personality. Don't be afraid to express yourself with a cool pair of earrings. Men pay particular attention to them; they provide insight into your personality and can be a great conversation starter. 3. Focus on fit No matter your height, weight, or size, everyone looks their best in clothes that fit them correctly. If your clothes aren't fitting quite right, consider getting them tailored. Your ability to carry yourself with swag is connected to your outfit fitting as intended. Men appreciate a well-tailored outfit on a woman. 4. Now I see Eyewear can make a very dynamic fashion statement and be a game-changer. A good pair of glasses (and especially sunglasses) can turn a normal fashion day into something fabulous. Be on the lookout for some cool spectacles to peep through. 5. Get sassy with shoes A great pair of shoes is another outfit-making accessory that anyone can pull off. If you're worried about being comfortable in high-fashion heels, get some gel insoles for added cushioning. Alternatively, there are many cool and original flat footwear options that allow women to make sexy and professional choices. The right outfit needs the right pair of shoes to make it all come together. You have the information—use it wisely! As Rod Stewart said, "you wear it well."
