Style influencer shares 'frumpy' and 'unflattering' item women over 50 should ditch
An over 50s fashion influencer shared one item which mature ladies should ditch immediately. According to the fashionista, they are "frumpy" and "unflattering".
YouTube channel 50 & Fabulous with My Friend Deirdre is a fashion, beauty and skincare platform for women over 50. Influencer Deirdre shared which popular clothing item mature women should stop wearing today.

However, being fashion forward is a way to modernise and rejuvenate any woman's look.
Deirdre told ladies over 50 to ditch the very popular loose capri trouser or run the risk of looking "frumpy".
She explained that these can be "lovely pieces" in that they are cool in the summer and "hide quite a bit of leg". They are also a nice hybrid of shorts and trousers.

Rather than slimming the leg down, this actually makes it look wider.
She explained that this style of trouser actually makes the leg look "much chunkier and much thicker" than it is.
Deirdre continued: "That length of trouser is actually very frumpy to any age and it doesn't show anybody's legs to their best advantage."
