The Best Way To Wear Stripes For Women Over 50
Are you a fan of stripes? For me, it depends! I’m not going to wear horizontal stripes across my behind any time soon, lol. Stripes are definitely trending. You’ll see a ton of banded items by retailers this year. Don’t worry. Today, I’m showing the best ways to wear stripes for women over 50.
This Oversized Striped Cardigan Sweater is one of my favorite purchases from Amazon. I love how soft and comfy it is, but the oversized look is what I love the most. I think it looks great with the NYDJ white ankle jeans, and yes…you can wear them before Memorial Day without the fashion police coming to arrest you.
Can you tell I love wearing white jeans at this time of the year? These Pintuck Flare Leg Jeans look dressier than most jeans, and I love the gorgeous Cotton Button Front Striped Shirt with them. The pink Cable Knit V-Neck Cardigan is perfect for adding extra warmth at this time of the year.
This tonal neutral outfit is as simple as it gets. It consists of a pair of wide-leg pants and a Striped half-zip sweater. Everyone puts on a top and a bottom (at least, I hope they do), so why not make it something cute???
The Best Way To Wear Stripes For Women Over 50 – Tops
If you need to look a bit wider or want to flatter a slim build, this top is perfect! I love that the stripes don’t go all the way to the top. I think it elevates the shirt a bit. I went with a classic black and white combo, but there are many options at the link. Under $30 dollars!
You can’t go wrong with a classic striped button-down! This comes in several colors, including green, orange, and yellow. Is it too soon to be thinking about football games again? This is a great shirt and under $30 dollars. Available to XX-L.
The Best Way To Wear Stripes For Women Over 50 – Scarf
I think this is a classic! What do you expect from Talbots? This would instantly elevate basic jeans and a button-down. The only downside I see is that you’ll look so expensive people will start asking to borrow money!
The Best Way To Wear Stripes For Women Over 50 – Dresses
Another classic look from Talbots. Sigh. Why don’t they just take all of my money?! This shirt dress will never go out of style. It’s available in sizes 2 – 18 and is 100% cotton. I wore a pair of navy suede pumps, but I would pair it with some white sneakers if I wanted to dress it down a hair.
Here’s another super cute option that is a little less expensive. Okay, it’s a lot less expensive. lol. It’s made from 100% viscose and is lightweight and non-stretch. See what I mean about sneakers? I think it’s adorable and would be great to wear for errands, lunch out with friends, or anywhere you want to go and look easy breezy chic.
The Best Way To Wear Stripes For Women Over 50 – Pants
Did you see these and think “choo choo”? Okay, same, but they are actually VERY cute. I’d wear these with a navy sweater or a cute white top and navy cardigan. Stripes on pants are a great way to fool the eye and elongate the leg. These are available in Misses, Petite, Plus, and Plus Petite!
The Best Way To Wear Stripes For Women Over 50 – Accessories
Accessories are a great way to incorporate a trend. These actually incorporate two! Stripes AND bows are trending now. The heel is a bit high at 3 1/8 inches, but they are chunky, which should help with stability.
I think the tan and white combo looks chic, but they are available in several others, even gingham!
How cute is this wicker clutch?! It’s bigger than it looks at 11″ L x 1″ W x 6 1/2″ H. It’s such a pretty spring/summer purse. This would be great for vacation. During the day, a crossbody bag is fine, but for dinners out, I like to elevate the look a bit. The color is called Soft Aqua. Just gorgeous!
Looking for a great tote? You can’t go wrong with this striped straw bag. Oversized totes aren’t just for the beach anymore. This one is made of woven nylon straw, and it’s lightweight and durable. It has a polyester cotton lining and is under $25 dollars!
Let me know in the comments if you’re a fan of stripes or if you’re more of a Brandy Clark kind of girl. LOL

Love anything with a vertical stripe. I am short and they really flatter.

Love stripes! I especially like the button down! I also immediately thought about football when I saw the red stripe. We cheer for the GA Bulldawgs♥️🖤
Easter\Spring is my favorite holiday to decorate, so refreshing and beautiful pastel colors.

I love stripes. I especially love the scarf. All your style ideas are great. I like to copy them. Glad your brother is doing much better.
Love the striped half zip sweater!
Please offer ideas on problem necks in those of us in our 70s. Most of the time trying to camouflage with scarves, I end of looking frumpy. Thank you!
Love those shoes! Stripes and bows are the perfect combination!
