Outfits That Work Every Day

Minimise clutter, maximise coordinates

Begin your wardrobe reset by culling. Yes, that dress from forever ago with the tags still on—release it! You’d be surprised how freeing a simple wardrobe clear-out can be. Once you’ve let go of the pieces that no longer bring you joie, it’s time to invest in some wardrobe essentials for women over 50. A variety of classic pieces with a few on-trend items will give you the perfect base to mix and match everyday outfits—from Monday through Sunday.

Wardrobe essentials: your week in style

Wherever your week takes you, be prepared with easy separates that can be dressed up or down; from understated to elevated. We’ve taken the guesswork out and put the style back into your wardrobe, with versatile outfit ideas—so you can meet your week’s diary of dates with class and confidence.

1.      Monday: morning market

A pair of Bengajeans® is a style staple—easy to throw on and go just about anywhere. Start the week right in Le Flares teamed with a breezy blouse and comfortable slides to hit your local market. Add a woven tote to carry all your goods—from fresh produce and flowers to cheese, baguettes and croissants (of course)—and you could just as well be ambling the cobblestones of a French provincial marché…

2.      Tuesday: gallery afternoon

Colours are not just for the canvas. Channel your inner artiste and embrace bold hues that bring out your joie de vivre. Pair a vibrant blouse with black or white linen pants for a cultured afternoon that inspires your creativity. Elevate with touches of gold—a pair of slingbacks, some elegant earrings—plus a statement clutch to bring out your personality. Monet would be proud.

 3.      Wednesday: working lunch

A navy linen suit screams sophisticated style and comfortable confidence. It’s the show-stopping outfit that will take you from boardroom to bistro and beyond. Wear as a pant and jacket set with a plain tee or mix as separates with a feminine knit or a pair of white Bengajeans®. Finish off the suit with a classic bag and silk scarf for an added touch of sophistication.

4.      Thursday: book club

Whatever the day holds—whether it’s office meetings or coffee catch-ups—here is the dress to see you from morning till night with polish and poise. Arrive at book club in this classic linen polka dot dress with a bottle of bubbles—you’ll feel comfortable enough to relax into the couch yet refined enough to share a drink and some lively debate. A pair of ballet flats, a crossbody bag and a beautiful black knit to keep the evening chill at bay will complete thi
classic Parisian look.

5.      Friday: girls’ getaway

As the weekend approaches, it’s time to let some fun into your wardrobe. Turn heads in this electric blue broderie trim dress—perfect for a refined daytrip or a long winery lunch. A statement on its own, you can step it up with some teardrop earrings, gold espadrilles and a fresh lemon clutch to match your G and T!

6.      Saturday: evening soirée

Crushed silk and pearlescent touches will give you all the elegance to make an impact at your evening cocktail or dinner party. This stunning teal dress is fluid and feminine and goes beautifully with a pair of soft pearl earrings and matching necklace. Slip on your favourite heels, spritz your signature scent and steal the show.

7.     Sunday: seaside stroll

A casual walk along the coast calls for comfortable linen shorts and a breathable shirt. Inhale that fresh sea air, get your body moving and feel the endorphins flow. Keep comfy and chic with crisp white sneakers and stay sun smart with a wide-brimmed hat. Why not grab some fish and chips to round out the week, and stay by the sea to watch the sun set? C'est magnifique!
