Why High Latitude Style Is Not Just Another 50+ Fashion Blog

It struck me how many women in midlife became invisible. They lost their style and/or they have difficulty to identify what works for them now on their changing body. I researched the problems, and share my solutions with explanations why certain cuts, lines, colors, materials, hems, etc. are better than others. These explanations cover include, among other things, body types, life and dressing situations, personal style and color seasons as well as wear comfort, sustainability and environmental impacts. Armed with this knowledge you can become your own personal stylist over time.

My goal to enable and empower you to create your own personal style, while being knowledgeable about sustainability, wear comfort requirements for the weather of your climate zone, and environmental impacts of the textile industry. These aspects beyond just tips for being effortlessly stylish make this blog different from other 50+ blogs and stylists.
