Age is just an inconsequential number, and what women really live is the state of mind. When she was young, she was a stunning and infinite beauty of time, but when she reached middle and old age, she was also an elegant and gentle "old girl". Time has turned Wu Yanshu into an elegant grandmother, from a beauty who amazes the time to today's calm and determined, she relies on her mentality and self-discipline of not admitting defeat and uncompromising.
Looking at Grandma Wu Yanshu, I suddenly feel less age anxious. We can't control age, but we can control how we live our lives and how we bloom beautifully. Therefore, middle-aged women must remember that proper dressing and delicate hairstyles are the key to elegance.
First: Discover the secret of Grandma Wu Yanshu's elegance
(1): People are old, but their hearts are not old
Although Grandma Wu Yanshu is 85 years old, although she is old, her mentality is really not old at all, and she does not accept old age. One minute, one word, no ambiguity. This is beyond the reach of most young people, but Grandma Wu Yanshu can do it perfectly.
Grandma Wu Yanshu, as an actor, in order to make her role more suitable for life, she will also go to the countryside to experience life, farming, cutting vegetables, even if the sun is hot, it doesn't matter if her face is tanned and peeled, and she said frankly that when acting, it would be good to put on foundation. Open-minded and calm, even if her face is full of wrinkles, she also says: "If you have it, you will have it, as long as the state of the person is young."
If the mentality is young, there is no need to be afraid of aging. Enjoy the flowers in spring and the moon in autumn, and listen to the snow in summer and winter with cool breeze. Age is just a number, life is a state of mind, for middle-aged women, it is like a glass of clear spring wine, the more you taste, the more elegant and intriguing you are.
Second: streamline your outfit and reduce the pressure of old-fashionedness
In addition to the mentality, Grandma Wu Yanshu's elegance is from the inside out. The external outfit also makes us understand: the dress that does not wear flowers until old age is the most amazing.
01: No old clothes, elegant and intellectual
To describe Wu Yanshu's grandmother's outfit, we can summarize it with "agelessness". Compared with many middle-aged and elderly women, they are all in pursuit of fancy, and even worthy of the name "old clothes", but she is an exception. I won't think about reducing my age by pretending to be young, and I won't be unkempt because I'm older.
The essence of Grandma Wu Yanshu's dressing: the color of the clothing is dark or light, and she rarely dresses herself up in a fancy way. Even when it comes to contrasting colors, it has a very harmonious proportion of accessories.
For example, the all-purpose coat for autumn and winter: haze blue with no age limit. The perfect combination with the silk scarf makes the neckline present a big V-shape, and the design is enough to modify the shoulders and neck, which is very elegant and outstanding.
It is the first step to reach the stage of middle and old age, but not to define yourself as an elderly person, and to reject the old-fashioned "old clothes" is the first step to make changes in style and color. Break with stereotypes and introduce design elements, such as checks or polka dots.
After a small amount of embellishment, a large area can add a bit of charm. This kind of collocation is not monotonous or complicated, and it is more suitable for the daily dress of middle-aged women.
(2): Changeable style: elegant style, national style, commuting style
As I get older, so do my experience. And the consciousness of changing the outfit should also be awakened, not limited by the ideological imprisonment of age, but also to understand that the trend of things may not be really fashionable, to find a style that suits you.
For example, Grandma Wu Yanshu has a clear understanding and positioning of her personal dressing style. Among them, the most daily and worthy of reference is the elegant style, the national style, and the commuting style.
Grandma is still like a first-time girl, Wu Yanshu, who is generous with a smile and a smile, and her elegant temperament is achieved in one go. Elegant style development, no need for gorgeous clothing as an auxiliary, only pay attention to the texture between styles and colors. For example, the gray + off-white knitwear is matched, the style is very basic, and the color is very soft, which is in line with the display of elegant style.
All-black outfits are boring and tasteless, but the texture between the materials is combined, and the effect is different. For example, black woolen + black pleated skirt, which is both black but has different textures in different materials, the elegant combination of khaki coat and wide-legged pants is better than the details of the clothing silhouette and raising the waistline, and elegance only needs a bag and a pair of comfortable shoes.
The national style dress has been very popular in recent years, and it is also a trend product that was once all the rage, and middle-aged and elderly women wearing the national style can actually better show their elegant temperament, with outstanding body proportions, fat and thin evenly dressed in a cheongsam, which is a time beauty that amazes the years.
Like cheongsam, you can choose according to different occasions. For more formal occasions, you can choose a style with a shawl, highlighting the elegant demeanor and posture, and the fabric can be selected with a lustrous sense of silk, plus delicate embroidery, showing elegance.
Grandma Wu Yanshu, as an old drama bone, takes most of the red carpet photos when she attends events every day, and most of them are embroidery with a strong sense of gloss and some exquisite designs. First of all, the fabric with its own luster can enhance the texture of the outfit, and the fabric is smooth and shows the elegant and gentle temperament of middle-aged and elderly women.
Secondly, for middle-aged and elderly women wearing cheongsam, the design sense does not have to be complicated, but try to wear bracelets, earrings, necklaces, etc. Note that the style should not be too exaggerated, and the exquisite design can better reflect the elegant and outstanding temperament.
(3): Clothing length details: long but ankle, skirt short but knee, heel not more than 5cm
For middle-aged and elderly women, any matching detail can make us more eye-catching, but not wearing it well will also expose our body shortcomings. The reason why Grandma Wu Yanshu's outfit is elegant and generous is also related to her choice of ankle skirt that is not long but short but knee-length, and the heel height is not more than 5 cm. Let's take a closer look:
>> is no longer than an ankle and no less than a knee
If middle-aged and elderly women wear super long or too long, it will cause the procrastination and lack of ability, keep the length at the length of the ankle and the knee short, and strictly demand the length of their outfit, you will find yourself becoming more and more elegant and calm.
Grandma Wu Yanshu's outfits are usually focused on being no longer than the ankle and no more short than the knee. When she chooses a long cheongsam, she will also leave a redundant "blank" design, so that the outfit will not be too obtrusive. By choosing a shallow pair of shoes, leave the skin of the foot to give the look a "white space", and then don't forget to create a high waistline.
For middle-aged and elderly women, choosing a skirt, as they age, their body functions lead to slower metabolism and fattening, and if the legs are curved or fleshy, the short skirt will only expose the shortcomings. The long skirt can just be modified, and the elegance will be more obvious.
>> heel height does not exceed 5 cm
The height of shoes can increase the height and lengthen the body proportion vertically, but for middle-aged and elderly women, if the shoe height exceeds 5 cm, it is easy to cause the center of gravity to be unstable and potentially dangerous. Therefore, choosing a height of less than 5 cm will be more suitable for middle-aged and elderly women.
After getting older, I still refer to Grandma Wu Yanshu's shoe selection standards. Choose flat shoes with a heel height of 3 cm, or a length with a block heel height of 3~5 cm, and the thread can be designed with a pointed toe, so that the modification of the leg shape and the center of gravity of the heel will be more secure, after all, it is suitable for middle-aged women's wear, in addition to being delicate and trendy, comfort is also very important.
Third: pay attention to hairstyle + accessories, you will be more decent
As we age, our hair becomes gray or thinning, but that doesn't mean we're no longer beautiful. On the contrary, it can become more gentle and charming because of the attention to the details of the hairstyle.
Grandma Wu Yanshu's secret to taking care of her hairstyle: her white hair is not dyed, and she pays attention to the fluffiness of her hairstyle. For middle-aged and elderly women, black and straight, or wool curls that are too finely curled are no longer suitable, and a classic fluffy style like Wu Yanshu can make up for the problem of less hair.
As for hair to turn white, it is not necessary to dye it black, respect the natural laws of time. After creating a sense of fluffiness and layering, it can also be beautiful and generous.
A hairstyle that suits you is based on the shape of your face and can cover up the shortcomings of your figure. For middle-aged and elderly women with thinning hair, small curls (curly > 2 cm) will flatter the face shape more. In addition, after picking up the hairstyle, using a silk scarf or matching the style will also give people a bright eye.
Write at the end: instead of focusing on aging, it is better to focus on how to improve your inner and outer beauty. Aging is an inevitable thing, but how to grow old is the thing we can control the most, from Wu Yanshu's grandmother, we see a variety of possibilities for beauty, although full of gray hair, wrinkles are obvious, but after the mentality is good, it can still be elegant and dignified~
