So
Yeah yeah, "embrace your youth", i know.
But that doesn't always work when you're going to formal events/job interviews/etc.
I'm almost 16, and I look extremley young. My question is does anyone know of anything I can do with my hair/makeup/clothing that will make me appear older? (photo of me on column name: pockets).

Slather on some make up, no bra, low cut top and short shorts, and you're good to go!
Haha, no. Well, for starters, I don't know what hairstyle you currently have, but if it's long? Try something short. Not only will it look more adult than long, little-girl hair, but it will also help define your cheekbones. However, if you don't have time to do that, try a ponytail or a simple twist or up do.
Next step: makeup [caution: DO NOT GO TO THE CHANEL COUNTER AND BUY BIG TUBS OF EVERYTHING AND USE IT ALL AT ONCE! But you're smart, do you already knew that, right? Right. [= ]
I would suggest some DARK eyeliner [try dark violet if you have brown eyes, black if you have hazel, deep brown if you have blue eyes, and the same for green eyes]. Apply 2 coats to your UPPER lashline. And then, one, thin [THIN!] coat on the bottom, from the corner to the area just past your pupil [about the middle of your lashline]. Then you know, hi light your cheekbones, do your normal routine, but tone down any bright color; nude colors are best. Add some orangey-red lipstick, and you're good!
Last step: outfit! Pick something professional, but flattering. A denim blazer with a simple dress, or some nice slacks would be good. Don't forget heels! :]
Hope that helps!

for interviews and formal occasions, wear suit-buisness woman type clothes. a good example site to look at is victoriassecret.com, actually. they have clothes and a lot are made to fin younger people with that more mature look. don't wear bright shirts/etc. browns are usually easy to work with. look at what younger teachers wear... it acutally helps a lot. I don't know if this works for you but i part my hair at the side and up it up in a not-so-messy bun or sleek ponytail. hope that works for ya! <3

hey!
these are just a few suggestions for you to try.
with clothes i would avoid casual tees as these are worn by younger teens and choose instead plain or print tops in colours that suit you and accessorize them with matching jewellery to appear sophisticated.
for your makeup i would avoid using blusher as colour in your cheeks gives a very youthful appearance to most people. good, black mascara is a also good idea but don't pile on the liner as you may appear gothlike and this is not good at formal events.
with your hair i would try updos. loose buns are good, and using a variety of clips to hold it up at the back not just grips and elastics can be very stylish.
hope this helps
