Today, I’m sharing how I styled a creamy sweater vest outfit with ripped jeans. For a chic, casual, and comfy look. tt’s perfect for women over 50. As we move into fall, layering is key for staying stylish and cozy. Especially when you’re heading out for family activities like a day at the pumpkin patch!
Embrace Layering: Creamy Sweater Vest Outfit with White Blouse
The star of today’s outfit is this cozy, creamy sweater vest. Which features cute brown wooden buttons that create a flattering vertical line. To keep things casual and chic, I layered it over an oversized white blouse. The blouse hangs out just below the vest. It adds dimension to the outfit and giving it that relaxed, layered look we all love for fall.
Casual Meets Chic: Styling Ripped Jeans
I know not everyone is a fan of ripped jeans, but sometimes it’s fun to mix things up! My straight-leg ripped jeans have a single tear at the knee, giving the outfit a touch of laid-back style. While some prefer a more polished look, I’ve had these jeans for a while and decided to embrace the casual vibe today. It’s all about balance.
Pairing the casual ripped jeans with a more structured sweater vest and blouse keeps the outfit looking put together.
Did you notice my wrapped up hand? If you haven’t followed me lately I had part of my pinky amputated due to melanoma.
Finishing Touch: Tan Faux Leather Wedge Sneakers
For footwear, I chose my faux leather wedge sneakers in tan. These are the perfect match for the creamy sweater vest and brown buttons. The neutral tones tie the whole look together, keeping it comfortable and stylish for a busy day outdoors.
I paired these faux leather sneakers with a black pleated skirt here.
Since it was a chilly, windy day, I threw on a blue linen scarf for a pop of color and extra warmth!
Accessories to Elevate Your sweater hOutfit
To add a bit of polish, I paired the look with a long leather necklace featuring two silver circles and matching silver earrings. These subtle accessories complement the neutral tones of the outfit while adding a bit of interest without overpowering it
Fashion Should Be Fun and Carefree
Now, while this outfit was comfy and perfect for the pumpkin patch, it wasn’t my favorite look on me. As someone with broad shoulders, the vest felt a bit bulky, but I still loved wearing it because sometimes, fashion is all about having fun! Life’s too short to worry about looking perfect every time we step out the door. So why not wear what makes you happy?
What are your thoughts? Do you agree that fashion for women over 50 should be more about comfort and fun? Or do you prefer a more polished, refined look? Let me know in the comments—I’d love to hear what you think!
