Fashion trends come and go just like everything else but at the end of the day it’s all about having fun. The stereotype is that once you hit a certain age you have to dress appropriately, but let’s be honest fashion has no age. Whether you’re 30 or 50 the trick is always to take the trend and make it your own. The important thing is to remain true to who you are and more importantly remain true to your style!
Let’s have a look at some great fashion must-haves for your fabulous fifties
Colour, Colour, Colour
Colour is always seen as a bold choice and the stigma behind it is that the older you get you should choose more demure palettes to not make too much of a statement. I say go for it! Keep one strong base colour and build around it, that always leaves your outfit looking chic and put together.

Your denim fit
Keep your denim nice and breathable. Steer clear from skinny jeans or anything too tight as this might dig into parts of the body and leave you uncomfortable. Mom & Dad fit denims are really great options. If you feel risky you could even opt for one with a slight rip to give it more of a casual street-style aesthetic.

Ankle length trousers
Get rid of those ill-fitted trousers and rather go with an ankle length as it creates a more sophisticated silhouette.

All about summer
If you don’t like tight-fitted bodycon dresses, you don’t need to say goodbye to dresses for good! Go for something with more of a flow. Celebrate the beautiful weather by making use of colour and prints. When it comes to length a nice over-the-knee or just above it slightly would work great depending on your height.

The little black dress
Better known as the ‘LBD’ goes across generations and belongs in every women’s cupboard. The beautiful thing about this dress is that it is always cross-seasonal making it a definite investment piece for everyone, but few rock it as elegantly as the more mature woman.
