Ladies over 50 will have had five decades to get to know what suits them, their colouring and their body shape and will be a good judge of how to pull an outfit together and make the most of themselves. To be sure you have all the right tools to hand, check our list below for some must have items for the over 50s.
Accessorize carefully – less is more. Choose one statement piece of jewellery – necklace or earrings. Too many accessories can look too fussy and over the top. Simplicity is the key to looking stylish and sophisticated over 50.
Experiment with prints – but be sure they work with your body shape. Prints on the bias cut or diagonal are always great. Wear busier prints on areas you want to emphasise.
A well fitted jacket – it will be perfect for seeing you through any smart/casual daytime event, or simply keeping warm while shopping with the girls.
The classic belted shift dress – it is easy to wear and can take you effortlessly from day into night, whatever the occasion.

Every woman has the right to bare arms. Over the age of 50 however, it takes a little skill and sense of taste to ensure this looks elegant and age appropriate.
The hot summer weather is on it’s way, and with this comes the difficulty of baring skin to keep cool, without showing too much. There are a few items which will prove invaluble for your Summer wardrobe and ensure you’re comfortable and looking fantastic in the sun this year.
Shrugs are a great way to cover the arms while staying cool. Some styles tie at the front and are very flattering to an hourglass figure.
Pashminas offer another option, and can be thrown carelessly over shoulders as the evening draws in and gets cooler. Some very pretty styles are avalible and pashminas with sequins or beads will add to the outfit.
Capped tee-shirts and dresses are perfect for covering the problem top areas of the arm, without covering up the entire arm.

Women who wish to slim their hips and show off an hourglass figure should invest in fantastic belts and make them a regular part of their outfit.
With so many styles available, from wide belts to be slung low over hips, disguising the tummy area, to skinny belts which can nip in any outfit at the waist and be worn over cardigans or jackets to add a fashionable twist. They are a fashionable way to update your wardrobe and look without breaking the bank.
Belts are all too often forgotten as a vital fashion accessory but to take advantage of this trend be sure to think about how you can work belts into the outfits already in your wardrobe.

To showcase your curves – or create some that aren’t already there – a halterneck can be the perfect style choice.
While drawing attention to a great bust, the halterneck also shows off the shoulders and collar-bone, which is an area all too often forgotten.
For those without ample cleavage, there are many push up and padded styles to choose from, so whether you choose a halterneck top or dress you can be sure that you will look fantastic.
With summer on the way, halternecks provide an ideal choice for your summer wardrobe, keeping you cool while you look fabulous.
Remember not to wear a necklace if you opt for a halterneck as it will clutter the neckline – keep things simple to nail this style.
