How To Dress in Fall When It’s Still Hot Over 50: 6 Outfits to Copy + Capsule Wardrobe

With a new season comes the familiar question—what am I going to wear this fall?

And when your fall weather still feels like summer, it's even more confusing to decide what to wear.

Ideally, you want to feel like you have a new wardrobe with a bunch of new outfit ideas, without actually going crazy buying new clothes just to feel like you’re wearing something new.

Luckily, spending money isn’t the only way to create more outfits with the clothes in your closet.

If your way of having something new to wear is to spend money, I’m happy to break it to you—this is not the way. You can spend less and be better dressed.

Every season gives you a chance to start fresh. This is your opportunity to decide which clothes you want to transition from the previous season, what you’re ready to break out of storage, and then decide if there’s anything you actually need to buy.

See how shopping comes last? Not first?

Once you know what you’re continuing to wear, you can start building your capsule wardrobe for the season.

And instead of doing all of that work yourself, I’ve done it for you.

The Warm Fall Capsule Wardrobe eBook walks you through:

  1. Building your wardrobe foundation with the clothes you already own.

  2. Breaking down the seasonal trends to consider adding to give your wardrobe that fall touch.

  3. An entire season of outfit ideas that mix and match the same pieces in different ways.

  4. A focused private shopping guide so you can shop intentionally and avoid buying clothes you only wear once.

A new season is a chance to shop your closet better, use more of the clothes you already have, and spend money only when you actually need to.

To give you an idea of what your classic fall style can look like, here are six outfit ideas modeled on women in their 50s, 60s, and 70s so you can see how these styles and trends can give your wardrobe a more current look.
