Grown-up and Gorgeous in Your 40s

Getting on ain't what it used to be. Women nowadays are too busy and too plugged-in to disappear into the background. Who wants to be a sweet little old lady? Each decade brings new challenges and new promises - and so much living to do. Still, most women admit to a sneaking anxiety about how to present themselves now that they are unmistakably the grown-up in the room. They don't want to look desperate, but they don't want to let themselves go. What's too young now? Too old? In our youth-saturated world it can be tricky to get the aging-gracefully thing absolutely right. Grown-up and Gorgeous in your 40s offers bewitching goddesses in the prime of their lives dozens of effortless tips and tricks to keep their look fresh and hip. The pretty pages are packed with compelling advice on everything from lip gloss to eyebrows, jeans to heels, specs to teeth, underwear to skirt lengths, skincare to skin rejuvenators. And because it's not all about appearance, there are also thoughtful suggestions on boosting confidence, feeling good on the inside and acquiring those all-important luxuries that money cannot buy. The words of womanly wisdom are illustrated with elegance and flair. This sweet gift book is a girly treasure-trove of timeless advice for staying current and making the most of the exciting years ahead.
