КРАСОТКА?

Talking about s*x, especially to a stranger, is not something that comes naturally to a lot of people. It can bring up feelings of embarrassment, shame, or inadequacy—all of which is why even couples who seek out a s*x therapist can skirt around the issue. This leads to a lot of misconceptions about intimacy, from thinking that having less s*x means your partner is cheating to believing that s*x toys are only for couples with major issues. That's why we spoke to s*x therapists to learn the biggest secrets they wish couples knew. Read on for expert advice that might change your whole outlook in the bedroom.

Elizabeth Kosich, a personal stylist at Elizabeth Kosich Styling, believes that a sharp pair of sneakers is the embodiment of sportswear—at any age. And for those over 65, it's hard to beat their comfort and versatility. "The key to looking fabulous and not frumpy is elevating the look for a high/low effect. This keeps you looking current, relevant, and polished, and not mistaken for being on your way to the gym," she says.

One way to acheive Kosich's high-low look is to pair sneakers with some of your favorite investment pieces. "Think luxury touches like cashmere and leather to offset the casualness of the sneaker," she advises. "A popular go-to winter uniform is leather pants, a cashmere turtleneck with bulky, traction-soled sneakers, and a puffer coat." Another trick she shares is to roll or fold up the hem of your jeans "to make a wide cuff to shorten and set the stage for your cool kicks."

If you want a stylish sneaker that's a little more on the dressy side, try the on-trend Warren Sneaker from Vince. The style pros at Stitch Fix say these sneakers never go out of style. Beloved by women young and old, they're the perfect slip-on sneaker for a dress, jeans, or sweats. The platform provides a flattering look that elongates the legs.

Hiura notes that there are "no hard and fast rules" for colors and patterns of skirts. As with different styles, you'll have to go through some trial and error.

"Just experiment until you find something you love!" she says, suggesting floral prints or bold solid colors, if you're more comfortable. "Don't be afraid to try out unique patterns like polka dots or stripes. The key is just having fun with it and not taking yourself too seriously."

"The wrong shoes can ruin even the best-looking outfit," Smith says. "Choose shoes that are comfortable and that go well with the skirt. Avoid excessively high heels if you're over 65, as they can be difficult to walk in and may cause you to trip."

You can opt for a trendy sneaker or sandal, but Jon Callahan, founder of Thread Curve, recommends pairing your skirt with at least a small heel.

"Combine with patent leather pumps for the evening or black tights and booties," he says. "Wear wedge shoes, high-heeled pumps, or boots instead of flat shoes."

No matter your hair color or length, it's always smart to invest in products that strengthen and revitalize your strands.
