how to dress over 50

One of the most treasured pieces in my wardrobe is this yummy cashmere deep vneck dress by Josh Goot.  It’s been a loved piece for over a decade {or two?!} now and I’m not about to let it go or let it die in my closet cause I’m in my mid 50’s lol.  In this post I’m sharing  wardrobe tips on showing some skin for women over 50.

First Fall Looks : Showing Some Skin

stylish women over 50

I love wearing an oldie-but-a-goodie piece in a new way and the bandeau gave this oldie {the dress, hello!} some new life.  I just started wearing it with a bandeau earlier this year.  Prior to that I’d layer over a sleeveless {faux leather} button up or a sheer crewneck tee.  I never had the courage or event to wearing the plunging v on its own {too much double stick tape required}.  Since undergarments are now easily RTW, I was excited to try with a bandeau.  A straight up bra was a little much for me.  I felt there would be more eyes on the boobies than anything and not the point, right?

Check the optical illusion at play here, I’m fully covered yet also showing some skin!  The key takeaway is that the skin-showing element of my look is intriguing and interesting and mostly about the design/fashion.  Coming from that POV, you’ll feel more confident than exposed.  Here’s another post on showing some skin over 50.  Again, it was all about the design of the piece than anything else.

If you dig this look, I found similar pieces below.  I pulled out all of my shopping skills to find the exact dress because, truly, it’s just the best.  Nothing beats the softest of cashmere and the pockets{!!!}.  Quiet luxury.  Full Stop.  If you wanna try to hunt it down, it’s by Josh Goot {deep vneck cashmere dress, 2008??}
