How to Create Outfits for Any Age With Touches of Punk Futurism Now

I decided to look into one of the many choices we have in fashion this fall and winter. In the process, I have formed a little guide that can be used as an inspiration to create outfits for any age with touches of punk futurism now.

It takes courage to dare to wear something new and different from what we’re used to. On the other hand, it takes guts to wear something we wore in the past once we get older. That’s where being true to your self comes in; you never have to stop being yourself. And when you get older, I believe it’s easier to break out of expectations and wear whatever you darn please.

This post is for women who want to do just that…and for women who want to take their look into the future a bit…and for women who have some punk rebel in them…and for women who love to wear black (is that all of us?)

Go ahead. Show your true self. And remember, age doesn’t matter!

How to Stack Bangles to Make Your Look Suddenly Stunning

One of the jewelry trends for this fall is stacked bangles. Over-the-top is the key. So you might like to stock up on your bangle supply. Now is the time to layer them all the way up the arm if that’s your fancy. Or if you prefer, just wear one big statement bangle because now is also a time of pushing bangle designs to the max. You’ll find versions from sparkle to futurism to the edge of punk. Take your pick or mix them up (different styles in the same materials or colors.) See below to get my ideas on how to stack bangles in 26 interesting ways. You’ll even see how you can make your outfit become suddenly stunning.

The New Colors for Spring/Summer and How to Wear Them

Spring brings with it brighter, lighter clothes.  This is the time to start choosing spring colors to really get into the mood of the season.  This post contains the new colors for spring/summer and how to wear them.

I like to start wearing spring colors from the first day of the season until the last. That’s why I am posting these colors now instead of when they were first announced in the fall!

The Pantone Fashion Color Report provides a comprehensive overview of fashion designers’ use of color in their collections.  The color palette shown here is based on New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2022.  The trending colors are generally available in the stores, so they should be fairly easy to find.  You may also have these colors in your wardrobe already.  Updating your colors keeps your look modern.  Age doesn’t matter. And remember, older is bolder! This year’s palette gives you the option of piling on the bold colors.

I will recommend which are the best for your coloring, below the color swatches.  If warm spring or autumn colors look best on you or if cool summer or winter colors are your best, read my summary located below the color swatches.

And finally, I will include ideas for some of the best ways of combining the Pantone colors together.  You’ll find that at the bottom of this post.
