6 Flattering Fall Fashion Trends For Women Over 50

1. Western Wear

L.L. Bean Flannel-Lined Adirondack Barn Coat

It feels like Western wear is everywhere at the moment, but that doesn’t mean it’s all cowgirl boots and hats. You can rock this fall trend in a more understated way, and there are plenty of pieces on the market to get you there.

These hues feel nothing but timeless, too, so you can take them well into winter. Play with this trend by opting for accent accessories, like shoes and bags.

If you’re feeling bold, snag a deep burgundy jacket or coat for a fuller, head-turning wash.

Spoiler alert: skinny jeans and mom jeans are a thing of seasons past. This fall, the fashion gals are opting for bigger and baggier silhouettes.

Abercrombie & Fitch High Rise Wide Leg Jean

Wide leg jeans and barrel jeans are the main players when it comes to denim at the moment, and I couldn’t recommend them more for people of all ages. Thanks to their shape, these denim styles help shape your figure in the most flattering way, plus, they're just downright fun.
