Is What I Wear Really Any Of Your Business?

Friday May 06, 2022
It's another installment of Black, Female and Over 50 - The (UnderValued) Power Trifecta
When you reach an age - (50+), you can guarantee that someone has an opinion about how you should be conducting yourself as a mature woman.
And when it comes to how we dress, the opinions really fly!
"What age does she think she is?"
"She trying to act young"
"She mutton dressed as lamb"
"Why can’t she dress her age?"
As women age they face a particular societal code that determines what is deemed "appropriate" to wear, which can lead to a fear of expressing oneself authentically, becoming almost invisible as to not risk ridicule or rejection from society.
But how do those biases translate to the working world and women's careers?
Join Personal stylist @Renee Lindo and I as we discuss:
- How important a role does appearance play for career women over 50?
- Who makes the rules about what not to wear past 50?
- Should women "disguise" their age?
- How does the way women feel about their dress impact their confidence?
- How can women dress to accommodate the physical impact of menopause at work.
The next LinkedIn live is scheduled 12th May2022 where I'll be hosting Registered Social Worker - Gillian Wells the topic of managing your mental health when you're a Black women over 50 - "Priortising Your Mental Wellness for a Marvellous Midlife"
