4 things a classy 30-year-old wouldn’t wear
Women get better with age, that’s just a fact. As they become more knowledgable, they also become more tasteful and lux. Women over 30 tend to have more self-confidence and naturally, more elegance, as their style is more put-together and less like the teenager they once were. But what are the things every 30-year-old and what are the pieces she would never be seen wearing? We’ve got all the answers.
1. Say no to chic clothes in cheap fabrics
Shirts, blazers, suits, pencil skirts, blouses and trousers are all great starters for any woman’s wardrobe. But no classy thirty-year-old would ever dream of wearing these chic pieces in cheap fabrics. That’s because they would immediately lose their function which is to make the outfit appear put together. Instead, invest in some pieces that will last you a long period of time and make your outfit look more luxe.

2. Cheap bags are definitely a no
The chic 30-year-old will hardly choose to wear cheap handbags. Why? Shopping at 30 is very different than shopping at 20. It truly is all about “less is more.” And since bags are an essential part of the look, invest in a few great ones that a ton of cheap, unstructured ones.

Who still wears low-rise clothing?
Not the classy 30-year-old. Low-rise clothing is to be left in highschool or maybe at least in your 20s. The classy 30-year-old is all about high-waisted everything. From pants to shorts and skirts. High-waisted pieces create a longer, slimmer effect. They just look more classy, no matter what you pair them with.

4. No more uncomfortable shoes
If there’s one thing to throw away immediately at 30, its uncomfortable shoes. No thirty-year-old chic woman would ever wear shoes that are too wide, too narrow or anything that might give them blisters. The choice of shoes at 30 is either high or flat, casual or elegant, plain or embellished. Whatever it is, they have to be comfortable and they must fit perfectly.
