I’m sure you’ve seen the fashion “Sandwich Method” of creating outfits splattered all over social media and YouTube. The sandwich method is a straightforward styling trick: you match an element from your top half (like a sweater, blouse, or jacket) to an element from your bottom half (pants, skirt, or shoes), with a contrasting or different element in between. But DO NOT shop your closet and use this method until you read this post.
In short, the Sandwich Method may not be flattering on women over 40, women over 50, and women over 60.
In fact, the Sandwich Method might just be the FASHION ENEMY of midlife women. Watch to find out more...
As always, the motto here at Midlife Posh Closet is SHOP YOUR CLOSET FIRST then supplement your wardrobe when needed!
