For many women over 50, they tend to just forget the fact that they can still look good with the right fashion choices. This list goes through a spring collection that would make a woman of 50 look amazing.
There is no need to dress lazily and think that young women get all the attention. You can still steal a few eyes with these!
Vibrant colors
Vibrant is different from loud neon so walk away from those.
Nice colors make you stand out without shouting for attention and these vibrant colors bring out the color of your eyes and even the glow of your skin.
Pair a dark bottom with a vibrant top, especially if you have an apple shaped body.
Accessorize with nice earrings or sunglasses.
Large handbags
For women with a bit of a rounder body type, a decently sized bag can work for you as these can make you appear smaller.
They are also very practical to carry.
That larger size means you can put more stuff in it too.
Ballet Flats
These are very trendy for Spring, and they come in different styles and colors.
Ballet flats seem to always be in style but that’s because they’re near-perfect in terms of style and practicality.
Grab a few pairs and have fun.
Birkenstocks
These sandals are shaped to give your feet comfort wherever you go.
It is arched just right and they are soft but not too soft.
You will love these for the spring and the summer.
Field jackets
These cool jackets come in nice vibrant colors that will pop and make you look fresh and young.
Go for a longer jacket that will cover your rear to make you look taller and slimmer.
Shorter ones will cut you down the middle and may not give you the shape you are looking for.
Bold colored suits
More vibrant colors with these suits.
Go ahead and look smart and casual in these, perfect for a lunch out with friends or for those boring meetings.
These suits are a nice investment to have in that closet.
Maxi dresses
Maxi dresses work well for apple shaped or plus sized women.
They wrap around the body well, falling down naturally and giving an hourglass figure for the wearer.
The trick is getting them in the right size, but these look amazing with a jean jacket and small heels.
Denim on denim
Spring 2023 welcomes denim for good reason.
It’s also called a “Canadian tuxedo.”
However, these have come back thanks to that casual warm vibe it gives off.
Animal prints
These aren’t really a trend as animal print seems to be a style that has endured the test of time.
Go big with a dress, or go subtle with a scarf, to break up an outfit.
Imagine wearing all black and breaking it up with a scarf in animal print.
Crop pants
Crop pants will show off those ankles without cutting off the leg halfway like a capri does.
These won’t make your legs look any shorter than they already are.
It’s a style that lends itself well to casual and chic so it’s worth a look.
Choose a flesh toned shoe
A flesh toned shoe can extend your leg when wearing a nice dress or crop pants.
People will find that they’re looking down lower than usual thanks to these.
Different colored shoes can cut off the line from the leg and ankle, making you look shorter.
Glitz and glam
Have fun during Spring with glitz and glam on your shoes.
Glitzy colors can work on shoes, accessories, or even on your bag.
It’s a good way to stand out but don’t overdo it so much or you’ll look like you’re selling jewelry.
Simple sandals
Simple is always timeless, making it easier to incorporate with any outfit.
Do go for strapless styles to elongate your legs as straps have an awkward way of cutting off the feet.
Find colors that match your style and outfits and you’ll be keeping these for a long time.
Avoid ankle straps
Shoes or sandals with straps make you look shorter since they cut off the leg and bring the attention to your feet.
Young, long legged women can get away with these but for shorter women over 50, they aren’t always the most flattering.
Blazers
Blazers are a hit or miss. Some like them, some don’t.
But choose the right color and the right size to go with jeans then you’ll look extra fancy.
It’s a layer that just elevates any look when worn well.
Stripes
Stripes look really nice and you can find them everywhere.
There’s a bit of a hit or miss feel with stripes though so try them on first and see if they look good on you.
Do choose vertical stripes as horizontal ones can make you look wider.
And try to go for thin stripes instead of big ones.
Houndstooth and plaid
These styles are super stylish and really pretty to look at.
Get them in muted hues then style as you please, whether for casual or intimate.
Houndstooth and plaid tend to get overlooked so you’ll stand out well.
Polo tops
Versatile, comfortable, and simply stylish, these polo tops can work with jeans, as a skort, and everything in between.
You can dress them up with a jacket or a blazer to look extra smart and fun.
The right size also makes you look smart and slim.
