About 40+ Style

40+Style offers style ideas, how to dress and beauty information for women over 40. My name is Sylvia and I’m a 45 year old Dutch woman, living in Singapore and this is my fashion blog.

My mission is to show that you can look gorgeous and experiment with styles and fashion at any age. It’s all about having fun with style and fashion! Too often we get too worried about our wrinkled face, heavier bodies or loosening skin. Having fun with hair and makeup, fashion and new styles can help to make you look better, but also feel more confident and happy.

Looking good and being stylish is not so much about money, the figure you have or how old you are. It’s about dressing to your strengths, knowing your body type, and knowing and embracing your unique style.

I hope to help you in your quest to find your own style, dress to your strengths, look fabulous and embrace your age. You can start by reading all the articles on the site, or join our style forum and ask questions. If you are in Singapore you can also use my personal shopping and personal stylist services.

I believe that if you have fun with style and fashion and feel good about yourself and the way you look, you will feel great and so much happier! 

If you like to know more then you can read this article on why I setup 40PlusStyle.com.

A little bit more about me

I’m 45 years old and live in Singapore. Although originally from The Netherlands, I have lived all over the world: Italy, South Africa, England, Japan, China and Australia.  I’m married and mother to a 10 year old gorgeous boy. I studied international marketing in Amsterdam but later did courses in colour and design and fashion styling. I currently advise individuals on style and dressing and help companies with their online marketing.
