How To Style A Casual Fall Sweater Outfit For Women Over 50

Fall is officially here, and you can feel it in the air! The temperatures are dropping, and the leaves are starting to change and fall to the ground. It’s the perfect time to cozy up and layer on the warmth, and there’s nothing better for that than a soft, comfy cardigan sweater. I put together a casual fall sweater outfit that can become your next uniform. I know it’s going to be mine!

A Casual Fall Sweater Outfit

Start with your most comfortable jeans and a long sleeve t-shirt, and top it off with a chic v-neck cardigan. A cardigan sweater looks polished but is not as restrictive as a jacket or blazer. Then slip on a pair of chic mid-heel chunky loafers, grab a bright colored handbag and add one statement piece of jewelry. It’s really that simple.

How to Style It High Low

This formula can work to build a variety of outfits from items you may already own in your closet. Simply change up the color or your t-shirt, cardigan sweater or jeans. But if not, you can shop for them here! And you have options to wear this look with high-end designer pieces or low-priced look-alike fashion.

YES! I LOOK FORWARD TO #GROWINGYOUNGER

The Cardigan Sweater

The main focus of this of this casual fall outfit is the cardigan sweater. You can make an understated statement with this Versace Medusa Detail Wool & Cashmere Cardigan for $1,995. The medusa buttons are amazing. Or you can  wear this All in Favor Mixed Stitch Cardigan for only $59.

A Comfortable Long Sleeve T-Shirt

A t-shirt is more comfortable than a blouse or shirt under a cardigan, and it gives off a more laid-back vibe. This sleek white Helmut Lang Slim Long Sleeve Cotton T-Shirt for $215 is one you will wear time and time again. But you can save some cash with this Halogen® Crewneck Long Sleeve T-Shirt for $39 and even pick it up in a few different colors.

Easy-To-Wear Boyfriend Jeans

No one does classic styling like The Row and their Essentials Eglitta Boyfriend Jeans for $720 are perfect for this outfit. Or you can save hundreds of dollars and get a similar look with these Rag & Bone Shea High Rise Relaxed Straight Leg Jeans for $248.

The Chunky Heel Loafer

I’ve been wanting a pair of loafers like this for several years now and the look is clearly here to stay for a while. So you may like to invest in these stunning Chloé Marcie Block Heel Loafers for $990, or you can get a similar look with these Nine West Koolo Loafer Pumps for $95. That’s about one-tenth of the price!

A Bright Colored Shoulder Bag

Why not go bright or color-blocked with your handbag. Since the rest of the outfit is neutral, this Gucci Diana Small Tote Bag for $4,300 adds a fun pop of color and is a bag you will covet for years. However, that is quite an investment for a pop of color, so this MAISON de SABRÉ Leather Saddle Bag will work in a similar way for $329.

A Statement Piece Of Jewelry

To finish off this outfit I like the idea of one strong piece of jewelry, like this David Yurman Lexington Chain Bracelet in 18K Yellow Gold. The price tag on this is $11,500 but you can get this Jane Basch Designs Oversize Paper Clip Chain Bracelet for only $200.
