The answer is quite simple really.  Make sure you follow all the latest shows, any up and coming designers, tune into all the fashion media and always create a style that you not only suit but one that you also feel comfortable in.

Wearing a piece that may have cost a bomb and also features on all of the on-trend runways to date doesn’t instantly create a great outfit.  If you team it with the wrong accessories or it quite simply doesn’t suit your figure then chances are, you will look as uncomfortable as you feel.

Even wearing a simple piece that isn’t at the height of fashion can be brought up a notch!  Simply team with super embellished accessories or block colours and most importantly wear it with confidence!

Having confidence will in fact make you look and feel like a million dollars in whatever you are wearing!  Standing up tall with your back straight and your head held high will also make you look like a style icon and one that knows what’s on trend for now!  This is the case even if you are donning a past season outfit!  Work that confidence girlies!

According to studies, 31 is the pinnacle period for beauty; look to A-list stars such as Anouck Lepere and Katherine Heigl, who are both 31 and prove this theory to be extremely believable.

The online beauty brand QVC was the label behind such investigations and carried out the survey in order to coincide with its July’s Beauty Month. A total of over 2000 men and women were questioned in order to initiate such results.

Research questioned whether 31 is in fact believed to be the optimum age for beauty and revealed the following results. 70% of those questioned believed the main beauty factor is to possess confidence and those that offer such a quality appear so much more attractive than those that don’t. 67% of people questioned believed looks to be more important; another factor is style and also appears near the top of the programme with a total of 47% thinking such a quality in fact makes a big difference.

It is also telling sign that as women get older they care less about what other people think, this particular factor creates confidence. A total of 63% agree with the statement ‘with age comes beauty’, while 51% have let go of their insecurities as they got older and feel more beautiful.

So if its confidence that makes women more beautiful, then growing old no longer seems such a bad thing. Women like Jennifer Aniston, 41, Kim Cattrall, 53 and Helen Mirren, 64 prove this point; it looks like it’s not just men who get better with age.
