Fifty, Not Frumpy, Friday

Whoever said fifty had to look frumpy? I will never be frumpy. Just sayin’. I believe that each woman has a style that is unique to her. And as long as it’s tasteful, she can embrace it as she ages.

I like to dress comfortably and stylish. Those who know me best know that, as a creative type, I awake each day and enjoy the process of picking what I will wear. It’s one of my favorite parts of the day! I like clothing and accessories that are sparkly, quirky, fun and colorful. I want to encourage women of all ages to have the confidence to wear what makes them look and feel their best! So on this first Fifty, Not Frumpy, Friday, I’m sharing one style I chose this week.

outfit

The long vest is having a moment this fall. It’s finally cool enough in the evening here to layer, and this sleeveless vest is a fun way to do that. This vest would also be really cute with leggings and boots.

necklace

When I wear something longer on top, I prefer to wear a longer necklace as well. I love this one with White Plume Agate, a key and crystal on a bronze chain from Carole’s Art.

purse

I’m a fan metallic hand bags (because they go with everything) and layered bracelets. Love these comfy brown shoes as well.

ponytail

I picked up these Paige jeans last week at Nordstrom Rack and I love, love love them! Higher-waisted (than in recent years) skinny jeans with cute zippers.

Pumbaa got jealous that he wasn’t a part of this photoshoot, so he started barking and photo bombing my pics! Silly boy.

vest

Turquoise green has been my nail polish choice of late. No frumpiness there!

Hat: Target (old) Fall fedora here. // Vest: TJ Maxx. Similar here. // Jeans: Nordstom Rack, Paige Edgemont Ultra Skinny. Find them here as well. // Shoes: Vince Camuto. Similar here. // Handbag: Kate Spade Camillia Street // Necklace: Carole’s Art // Bracelet: J. Crew

We are about to head off on what promises to be quite an empty nest adventure! I’ll tell you all about it next week. Until then, what’s YOUR favorite style?

  3. It’s hard to find the balance of not trying to look too trendy and young but still going for modern and appealing looks. I like what you pulled together. The necklace is really cool too. The one element I loved that you never mentioned was your hairdo ( is that an over 50 word or what?! ) It looks so chic but easy. Hope you went somewhere fun in this outfit after photos:)

    • Ha! Yes, hairdo is definitely an over 50 word! I wen on a date with my handsome photographer/husband afterwards 🙂

  4. Love your style.

  5. Love this long vest – I am loving this trend too! This is such a great casual outfit and perfect transition to fall.

    Thank you for joining TBT Fashion link up and I hope to see you this Thursday.
