Fashion: How To Dress Well In Your Thirties

They say age is just a number, but when it comes to fashion, hitting your thirties is kind of like crossing a threshold where you realise that baggy jeans and untied laces just don’t cut it anymore. “I used to let my pants sag, not givin’ a f***, baby boy, now I’m all grown up,” was how Jay-Z put it on “30 Something” back in 2006. “Thirty’s the new twenty, I’m so hot still,” he continued. Now, he was 36 at the time and was probably trying to make himself feel better about his impending middle age. However, the track also offers a lyrical guide for a mature approach to dressing in your thirties. For one, his wardrobe now included patent-leather shoes and tuxedos. He was “young enough to know the right car to buy, yet grown enough not to put rims on it.” He also knew the difference between the “right watch” (good) and the “bright watch” (bad). So, if you’re nodding along and ready to elevate your style game, welcome to the club. Here’s how to dress well in your thirties.
