Style guide and tips over 50
Fit Over Trendy
Going for a trendy look will always be fun, but wearing a flattering style will make a powerful statement. Invest in tailor-made clothing, or go with brands that have an excellent style and taste. Something a little more graceful and elegant.
Foundation Style for Quality look
Your base style should have a look of quality and grace. Think of great fitted Jeans, a well-cut blazer, and a crisp blouse, or a midi skirt. This will give off a more casual, elegant look.
Go Neutral
Neutral colors like navy, cream, and olive often look more elegant than other brighter colors, for example, neon. Neutral will match mature skin tone better and give off a more elegant look to clothing.
Show a little more
There is no rule stating that you shouldn’t show off a little skin. Covering up isn’t recommended, especially in the summer months. Show off some shoulders, collarbone, or legs, just do it with grace and elegance, so it doesn’t overwhelm you and everyone else.
Comfort is key
Style is great and all, but going for an outfit that’s comfortable over stylish will always be the right choice. Think about it, you would never wear a sweater in summer, so why wear something that doesn’t fit comfortably on you?
Tips – choose a lighter fabric, I also like linen and stretch denim.
Accessories
When accessorizing, you can try a few signature things like scarves, neckless, glasses, and bags, these are the basics. Personally, I think you should get what you like. For me, it’s earning, bags, and maybe a small bracelet, but that’s it.

Hi, thank you for your suggestion, your very right, ill be creating an update post and ill leave a link at the top of this post.
Like you said, “Everyone needs a sense of direction now & then..” I need it now! I have lost my sense of fashion & the desire to always look nice/fresh. How about more ideas or suggestions for the plus size women? Not too young & certainly not too old… Fresh & in style…
While I love how you put the outfits together, if I were as tall and, especially, thin, even skinny, as these lovely ladies, putting my style together would be seriously easy! I was never that slender, ever! And while I totally agree with Rita M. in her comment from March, the heels elevate (😂) any outfit, but. I’m 70, a very young 70, at least on Saturday evenings when my husband and I go dancing to rock n roll bands, 5’2”, overweight and get sciatica. Those heels would tear my back up! Even 2” heels. These ladies are how many, many of us would love to look! Thank you, but a lot of this article just doesn’t help me. 🙂
If you’re thin you look good in anything no matter what your age.
I like how most of these jeans are not high rise, I just need to find them, they are more flattering for me.
Nice but there should be no hard fast rules as long as a woman is dressed decently. Haven’t women been told what to do and how to do it long enough. Let women be who they want to be and wear what they wanna wear. And where are the women of color in this article? All women are not white.
