Is Your Outfit Age Appropriate?

Disclosure: Style, Decor & More received Covered Perfectly samples for review purposes only. All opinions expressed herein are 100% my own. 

Alright, I confess! I will often find myself searching through my teenage daughter’s closet looking for something to wear. As I look through her colorful assortment of sleeveless tops and bodycon dresses, I am secretly hoping to find one that will fit me well!  Unfortunately, I usually leave her room disappointed. I'm finding that the younger, trendier styles are getting more and more difficult to pull off, and I ask myself if what I am wearing is age appropriate. I am not exactly saying I need to wear “grandma” clothes. After all, my mother is 77 years young and dresses very fashionably. The trick, however, is finding articles of clothing that will fit and flatter your figure. 
Recently I stumbled across a fantastic fashion apparel company whose sole purpose is to design fashionable clothing for women over 40. The company is Covered Perfectly and its president and founder, Pauline Durban, created Covered Perfectly after she discovered finding tops that made her feel attractive and confident was becoming a huge challenge. Sleeves were always too short and the length of the body wouldn't cover the tummy. Sound familiar?

I was lucky enough to get to try a top and skirt from Covered Perfectly! The Simple Comfort top I reviewed is seriously super soft and silky! It is made from a fabric I was completely unaware even existed, called MicroModal®! The fiber is unique in that it is made of European beechwood and is completely natural and breathable. Its quality and heavenly softness are even guaranteed! When I first felt the fabric, I had that "WOW" moment! I just love the way it feels against my skin and I want this top in every color! There are 13 colors in all!

The Covered Perfectly Pencil Skirt is a classic wardrobe staple all its own. It is lightweight and versatile enough to take me from day to night with little effort. Just like the Simple Comfort top, my skirt is a great foundation piece for my day-to-day wardrobe basics. Another plus...I found that even in temps close to 90 degrees in Cancun, the skirt and top both felt breathable and comfy!
