Curated for Women Over 50 | Inspired by Parisian & Classic Luxe
As the leaves begin to turn and the air takes on that crisp coolness, fall fashion beckons us to elevate. This season, your wardrobe gets a major refresh, with flattering silhouettes, soft layers, and timeless investment pieces that make getting dressed a pleasure.
We’ve curated a shoppable edit of the most elegant coats, cozy knits, and sophisticated accessories. Whether you’re looking to invest or find affordable style, you’ll love our fall picks.
1. Tailored Outerwear: The Power Coat
A beautifully cut coat is the cornerstone of fall fashion. This year, structured silhouettes and rich textures reign supreme.
- High-End Pick: Borneo double-breasted wool-cashmere long coat flatters all figures and works just as well over jeans as it does draped over your shoulders at a cocktail event.
- Chic-for-Less: Quince’s single-breasted wool classic coat offers that Parisian tailoring feel at a third of the price. Choose 7 colors, including earthy tones like taupe, chocolate, or burgundy.
Style Tip: Go for longer lengths to elongate your silhouette. Pair with leather gloves and a silk scarf for a classic European flair.
2. Luxe Layering: Cashmere & Merino Knits
Layering is key for fall, and this season is all about softness and structure in harmony.
- High-End Pick: C by Blomindale’s cashmere turtlenecks come in 11 exclusive and sophisticated neutrals and soft jewel tones—perfect for layering under a blazer or trench.
- Affordable Option: Quince offers 100% Mongolian cashmere sweaters under $100. They’re lightweight, warm, and ideal for everyday elegance.
Styling Note: Tuck a fine-gauge turtleneck into high-rise trousers or wear it loose with a long pendant necklace and ankle boots.
3. Elevated Bottoms: Wide-Leg Trousers & Midi Skirts
Say goodbye to skinny jeans—wide-leg trousers are both flattering and on-trend, offering fluidity and elegance.
- High-End Pick: Theory‘s Pleated Wide-Leg Pants come in two colors and are a modern classic with polished pleats and a waist-defining silhouette.
- Budget Buy: Ann Taylor‘s Modern Wide-Leg Trouser Pants come in 3 colors, including classic black. If you want to add a little adventure to your wardrobe, consider their cool blue or lavender options. Both are super chic.
Prefer skirts? Try a suede or leather midi:
- Banana Republic has a gorgeous vegan suede mini skirt that channels Parisian boho.
- Talbots also offers a faux suede midi skirt at a mid-tier price point.
- DKYN‘s faux leather midi skirt is the epitome of chic and stylish.
4. The Statement Blazer
This season’s blazers feature sharp shoulders, strong lapels, and nipped waists—evoking a sense of empowered femininity.
- Luxury Look: Tuckernuck‘s Black Diana blazer is an investment piece with impeccable tailoring.
- Stylish Steal: Revolve’s Elodie Alex Blazer is a beautiful houndstooth option priced under $200.
Pro Tip: Look for blazers with a bit of stretch or side vents for added comfort and mobility.
5. Shoes That Mean Business (and Comfort)
Your fall footwear should strike the perfect balance between structure and softness.
- High-End: Christian Louboutin’s Kate Slingback Pumps are sporty and available in 3 colors.
- Smart Buy: Vivaia’s knit loafers and block-heel pumps are eco-friendly, cushioned, and ideal for long days.
Boots? Opt for:
- Aquatalia’s weatherproof suede booties
- Sam Edelman’s affordable yet elegant knee-high boots
6. Accessories with Personality
Accessories are the secret to making an outfit yours.
- Scarves: Sophisticated women swear by silk carré scarves. Hermès is the gold standard, but Wolf & Badger stocks indie designers with a similar impact.
- Bags: A structured top-handle bag adds instant sophistication. Try Strathberry or Polène Paris for elevated mid-tier options, or Tuckernuck has some fabulous crossbodies available.
- Eyeglasses: Think of eyeglasses as jewelry for your face. Whether you’re after a bold, architectural frame or a minimalist wire pair, brands like LensCrafters and Oakley balance design and function beautifully.
