Best Denim Jackets for Women Over 50
Do you have a denim jacket in your closet? I hope that you answered yes to that question because they are so versatile that you can wear them with almost anything. I’ve had denim jackets in my closet that I reach for year after year, and they never seem to go out of style! They are available in so many different styles and colors. Don’t ask me how many denim jackets I own (hint: it is way too many, haha!). Today, I’m sharing some of my go-to denim jackets for women over 50, as well as some newer pieces I decided to try.
Best Denim Jackets for Women Over 50
Wrangler Authentic Stretch Denim Jacket
When I originally saw this jacket by Wrangler, I assumed it would be stiff and thick. I wanted something for fashion, not roping cattle. Imagine how shocked I was to find that it has some stretch to it and that it’s lightweight and unlined. I know you all have seen it multiple times over the years, but it is here to stay because this jacket may end up being my favorite denim jacket ever!
I love the colors of this beautiful maxi dress. Sadly, it’s only available now in small, but I’ve found another with a similar style.
One of my favorite ways to wear this jacket is over a dress. Whether it’s a chilly Sunday morning on my way to church or a cool summer night on my way to dinner, it’s an effortless and easy way to keep warm while still looking cute!
How adorable is this smocked dress? Normally, I try to steer clear of anything smocked, but I like that it is only at the bodice. I just got these hot pink sandals, and I thought this dress would be the perfect time to take them for a test drive. Lol!
It also looks great styled over a jumpsuit or with shorts, pants, and skirts. You can guarantee I’ve gotten my money out of this jacket, and I can’t recommend it enough!
I love a good jumpsuit! They are so comfortable and easy to wear. Maybe it’s because they feel like pajamas, lol. This looks like two pieces, but it’s actually one easy, comfortable, throw it on and go, jumpsuit from Loft.
Like it or not, short weather is coming hard and fast. I just purchased these chino shorts, and I love pairing them with black. The black sweater fits perfectly, and I like the 3 button detail on the back. The straw tote bag matched the outfit so well that you would have thought I bought them to go together.
Colored Denim Jackets For Women Over 50
Talbots Classic Jean Jacket in Orchid
Have you ventured out of your comfort zone by purchasing a colored denim jacket? I shared all about this jacket in this recent post. I love the classic styling of this denim jacket. It is made from a cotton blend that includes a small amount of spandex. The jacket has a hint of stretch to it, which makes it comfortable to wear as you move and bend. I’m wearing a medium, and it fits me great. The light pink is sold out but I’ve linked to a HOT pink that is beautiful. Also available in several other cute colors.
The ruffle medallion top is beautiful, but it is on the thin side. Many tops this year are thin, so I wanted to warn you about them.
Riders by Lee Indigo Stretch Denim Jacket
Speaking of colored denim jackets, I also wanted to try this red stretch denim jacket. I love the personality this color brings to an outfit. I paired it with a graphic tee, but you could also wear it over a dress or a dressier blouse. I’m wearing a large, and it fits perfectly. If you love the fit of this but not the bold color, you can grab it in black, white, light gray, dark denim, or light denim instead.
Time and Tru Women’s Denim Jacket
This jacket by Time and Tru is new to my closet, but I am already a big fan! I wanted to try a black jean jacket because black is timeless and goes with everything. Sometimes, a denim-on-denim look can be hard to pull off, but a black denim jacket can be easily paired with blue jeans or blue jean shorts. The best part about this jacket is that you can grab it is super affordable. I went with a monochromatic look here, and I think it looks effortless and chic!
You NEED this romper!!! It is as close to the SPANX Air Essentials line as anything I’ve come across. I just ordered it in navy also, and I might order more. Different colors are priced differently, so pay attention to the prices.
I know it’s a denim jacket like the other zillion denim jackets I’ve shown you, but I love the light wash color. It’s giving me vintage vibes. The dark ombre on the pockets add a nice subtle touch. It’s under 50 dollars and also comes in a darker wash if you prefer.
Here’s a nice option in ecru. I love a bright white but if your outfit has cream in it, the white can be too jarring. Like the other Kohl’s jacket, this also comes in a darker wash. The bottom of the jacket hits at a great spot if you like yours a little higher on the hip.
And finally, this CUTIE from Draper James is one of my favorites! Love the ruffle cuffs and neckline! Draper James is a line produced from Reese Witherspoon and if anyone knows cute – it’s Reese! It features a thin stripe and comes in cream and khaki as well.
Okay, gurls. Who’s ready to get their denim game on with me?!

Looking great Tania! A great basic Jean jacket is an important staple for us all to have in our arsenal. You look fantastic! Great post!
Have a great day!
Love the denim jackets, they look so cute on you. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Tania … all of these jackets and outfits look lovely on you. I am curious as to how tall you are?
I am 5’7 and tend to steer clear of cropped jackets. I have a couple of cropped jackets and prefer longer denim jackets. I also like what I call denim suiting and embellished denim. Some of my favorite denim jackets are by Chico’s and Lori Goldstein’s LOGO denim. I always like to have some stretch in my denim for comfort.
Francesca, I am 5’6″ tall, so were are about the same height.
The first denim jacket with the green dress is my favorite. I love the red and pink ones on you. I have red hair so they would not be for me. I have 2 denim jackets, a washed out Levi’s one and a white one from Dress Barn. Have a great day
love love love the Orchid Jean jacket, gorgeous color!!
Love my traditional denim jacket but I may have to try some of the different colored ones.
I pulled the trigger on the Wrangler jean jacket and should have it Friday. 😉 I have wide shoulders and am hoping it will as well as it does you. Have a great week!
I want to like denim jackets, in fact I’ve ordered several but always return. I always yhrink – maybe I’m too old (66)? But I’m going to try again. Goi g yo get the basic Wrangler jacket and give it a go. I love the look of it but think I look weird 🤣in them. Thanks for this post – I can do this!
Vicki, a denim jacket is my mom’s go-to. You are NOT too old, but if you aren’t comfortable in them, they might not be for you.
I like the orchid jean jacket from Talbots. I actually bought the hot pink one and wore it to church on Sunday. I got so many compliments that I think I will buy another jacket in a different color.
I find I don’t wear my denim jacket much anymore. I prefer the look of a blazer or other jacket which elevates my look.
I love wearing both styles.
