Ed. Over 50 women struggle with fashion trends. The phrase senior fashion sounds like an oxymoron. Sherrie Mathieson, author of two acclaimed style books, shares her top items to ensure women fashion style.
By Sherrie Mathieson
1. A good quality, body skimming, white blouse with a collar.
2. A good quality pair of black slacks in a modern, flattering cut.
3. A pair of good white cotton slacks, and a more casual pair in a modern cut.
4. A black straight or A line knee length skirt.
5. Black opaque hose
6. Navy blue lower rise, boot cut blue jeans.
7. A trench style jacket or coat.
8. A cashmere cardigan (or Merino wool) in a neutral color and in a bright color (like apple green).
9. A white and black polo top.
10. A good everyday black bag in regular or patent leather.
11. A variety of black shoes and boots (ankle with slacks, and knee high with skirts) in excellent condition.
12. A pair of athletic sneakers (Nike, Adidas, New Balance--not Easy Spirit)
13. An everyday brown or tan or camel color bag.
14. An assortment of shoes and boots that coordinate with brown/tan in excellent condition.
15. A Tunic top
16. Hip, flattering eyeglasses for everyday and in the sun.

Visual examples of what I mean by "good", "modern", and "hip" are in both my books.*
