If you’d like to look a little younger, or older, I’ve got some wardrobe suggestions for you...

What we wear can speak volumes about our sense of style – and our age...

Real Simple Magazine asked some styling pros – and these are the items that have got to go:
• Below-the-knee skirts, bow blouses, and pearls can be vogue when worn individually. Put them all together – and you’ve got Dustin Hoffman in Tootsie.
• Tying a silk scarf stewardess-style or draping it over one shoulder is an instant-ager -- even if the thing cost as much as your iPad. Try it backwards, in place of a necklace.
• Visible panty lines or an unsupportive bra can add decades to your look.
• That giant catch-all purse has got to go. Keep it in the car if you must – but pack a smaller more stylish one in there to tote your essentials. It will lighten your load – and your look.
• All-white sneakers can have an orthopedic look. Find a pair with a little color.
• That bracelet, earrings and pendant may have been sold as a set – but wearing them all together looks old. Try for contrasting baubles that complement each other.
