The shirts

The shirts

A shirt is a basic that can not be missing in any wardrobe . It can be part of a classic look, combined with a masculine suit, to an informal one with worn jeans, and in both it will be just as impeccable. Among our favorites are white, of course, but striped or denim have also proven to be chameleonic. Add this year to your wardrobe one of a shade Pude to give it a touch of trend.

The skirts

The skirts

Our favorites are the midi, more or less that reach between the middle of the calf and the beginning of the knee because they tend to be the ones that most favor any type of body. The prints with flight are very lady but we also like the flowy fabrics such as satin for special occasions. The leather-effect ones that are worn a lot this year are also a safe bet, especially if you combine them with a thick sweater and high boots.

The jeans

The jeans

Jeans are essential at any age but at 50 they take on vital importance since, well chosen, they are capable of subtracting up to a decade from your look. Choose high-waisted models that sculpt your silhouette when you are looking for a more sophisticated or wider air, even with rips, for a casual touch.

Cardigans and cardigans

Cardigans and cardigans

Open over a basic T-shirt or crossed with a belt over a pretty dress, cardigans are an infallible weapon to keep warm in style. The classic black is a safe bet but there is life beyond it, for example, in gray, raw colors or pastels. Those of air college also have an effect taking years away.

Dresses

Dresses

It is a piece that you dress from head to toe and is very flattering, so you have to have several to cover different types of events. In your wardrobe you cannot miss a black dress, between short and midi it is the perfect wild card for any special event. The floral maxi dress has been in fashion for several years and has already become an essential, it will be ideal with boots and a long coat to go to work or an informal dinner. The knitted ones are warm and very elegant, they serve both for the office and the weekend. Another dress that cannot be missing in your wardrobe is one with a special cut, such as a high neckline, a drape, a ruffle … it will depend on your strong point, since it is about enhancing what you like the most about yourself. and camouflage the rest, to wear those days that you want to stand out.

The blouses

The blouses

Bows, ruffles and embroidery in pastel or white pieces … blouses have a more romantic air than shirts, so they are ideal for looks with a feminine and sophisticated air. They can be worn with skirts, jeans, and even jacket suits. The lacing ones are a trend, but if you have a short neck, choose one with a mandarin collar.

The sweaters

The sweaters

Fine sweaters in basic colors give a lot of play and they can be worn most of the year. Those who most favor short beings or have a lot of chest are those with a 'V' shaped neckline. Another option that we love are thick knitted jumpers with a special pattern that give life to your outfits. The turtleneck sweater is a great ally if you want to camouflage the neckline and neck, as well as being elegant and very chic.

Footwear

Footwear

The basic models that you should have are: black high-heeled ankle boots, ballerinas, sports shoes and moccasins with which to combine all the clothes in your wardrobe and be perfect on a day-to-day basis. A lounge shoe that allows you to attend any event is also essential. To be comfortable, choose it with a wide heel for more stability and a slightly rounded toe so that it does not compress your fingers.

Do not think that at 50 you can no longer wear basic shirts, they are essential at any age because they go well with almost everything and also give a very youthful air. Nor can your wardrobe be missing black tops, lingerie or even bodysuits, ideal for refining the silhouette.

Costume

Costume

Another essential purchase is a good suit as a wardrobe. You have two options, or the solid colors or the prints. In the latter case, it is better to choose classic tailoring prints such as squares or stripes. You can wear your jacket and pants at the same time or wear them separately to create more looks.

The pants

The pants

It is one of the most comfortable pieces of the wardrobe and we wear a lot, so invest in several different styles . The most basic ones are black ones that feel like a glove. It is worth investing time and money to find the ideals that make you appear slimmer. In addition to these, add culottes, high- waisted and a mid-calf length for when you want to achieve a more trendy style without sacrificing comfort. Canvas sports shoes are very helpful as they provide you with a multitude of informal looks, but if you want to add a youthful and cool touch to your wardrobe, you cannot forget the leather ones.

Belts

Belts

Belts not only have an aesthetic function. Having several in your closet will help you adapt any garment to your real contour and thus see you much more favored. They come from fable to gird us garments like coats, sweaters, dresses, blazers … they also add more richness to our looks if we put them on the waistbands of pants. Putting a belt on a neutral garment also helps you give it character depending on the style it has: elegant, ethnic, rocker …

Jackets and windbreakers

Jackets and windbreakers

The mid-season jackets are the piece that just rounded off your look, so you must have several styles. Our favorites are jeans and leather ones for informal looks, but they also serve to take away the seriousness of very classic garments such as men's trousers or a party dress. The tweed jacket will always remind us of Chanel and therefore deserves a space in our outfits with a Parisian chic touch. Another piece we love is an overshirt, perfect for overlay looks in winter.

The coat

The coat

Camel and black coats are the most common, but I would recommend that you choose the one that best suits your wardrobe. If most of your clothes are gray or bluish, choose a black or gray coat instead. If, on the other hand, you are more of warm tones such as browns or garnets, opt for camel or dark brown. Classic prints such as plaid, houndstooth or stripes are perfect if there is hardly any pattern in your wardrobe and you tend to wear plain clothes.
