Fashion over 50: Spring/Summer Fashion with Friends

Hello and welcome to another Fashion over 50. If you’re new here today, visiting from some of my over 50 fashion friends, welcome! I blog about fashion once a week or so (and the rest of the time, it’s a lot about decorating and home projects) and today I’m sharing a few dresses from Amazon that are tried and true. I hope you get some inspiration and be sure and visit my blog friends at the bottom for extra fashion inspiration. There are so many over 50 fashion bloggers now and it’s fun to see how we all are different, but trying to look our best as we age gracefully. Isn’t that what it’s all about, trying our best to age gracefully? I’m definitely trying!

Today’s dresses are repeats from last year’s fashion, but they are still available on Amazon so I wanted to bring them out again and do a refresh. I’ve found a new belt I want to share with you!  Affiliate links used below. My sidekick, Daisy, came out on the porch to pose with me.

One of my other fashion friends, Cyndy Spivey, shared this cute stretch belt from Amazon awhile back and I went online and bought it right away. It’s such a cute stretchy belt and can be worn with many things. She had paired it with this same dress I’m wearing, so my wheels were turning too.

This dress is somewhat fitted in the waistline, but the stretchy belt helps to accent the waist even more. The best thing about this belt is that it doesn’t have belt holes, you just put the prong through the belt where ever you want it to go and it goes right through the material with no problem. I got the size Medium.

Of course, I also love that it’s a rattan look and has that summer feel to it. I like to wear the red version of this dress during spring and summer and the gold color is perfect for fall.

Here’s that one too with shades of gold and turquoise. I love wearing turquoise jewelry with this one. It’s so easy to add a jacket with these dresses for whatever occasion you have. I love a neutral wedge with both of them. This shoe is past season, so I can’t link it anymore.

This black and white striped dress is also an Amazon find from last year, still available. I think I could also add the stretchy belt to this dress too if I chose to. It will be fun to play around with the belt and see what all I can do with it. I can see it with a long white top and jeans too.

For all 3 of the dresses, as well as the white jacket and belt, you can check out my Amazon fashion page for all of them! Thanks for stopping by and please visit my friends below. They are all such stylish ladies and i know you’ll enjoy them.

Don’t forget to visit my friends, they are all inspiring stylish fashion gals and you will enjoy them all!

    Rhoda, did you know Draper James (Reese Witherspoon’s clothing line) now sells a lower price point line at Kohls? I love her original clothing line but it is too expensive for my budget. At Kohls I bought the most adorable white denim jacket with ruffled collar and cuffs for less than $50 and free shipping!! It would look so cute with the dresses you modeled today for these cool spring days.

      HI, Roxanne, no I had no idea! I’ll have to check out Kohls, there is one near me I’ll see if they have her line in the store.

      I would agree with that and a valid point.

      Hi there, I agree that you have a very valid point. It’s hard not to join in when they make it so convenient to shop.

    Hi Rhoda, Smart repurposing and using the same things as last year! We should all do this next year.. I would bet if we all just cleaned out our closets, tried on everything and restyled it, we’d buy a lot less. I always try to do this before shopping for spring. I’m at the point where I don’t care if things are super affordable, I want to see less and better in my closet and adding new accessories instead of more new is such a great idea!
    Fun doing this with you ladies. Daisy is adorable.

      HI, Kim I agree, I’ve been on a no buying new clothes for the last few months, so haven’t bought much. I still have so much in my closet that I hardly ever wear. My life is so casual now and so I need less things hanging around. THank you, we love our Daisy!

    Rhoda,
    Hi! Thank you for featuring summer easy breezy dresses from Amazon. I typically order items for the home and never considered their clothing. As a prime member, the two-day shipping makes the choice appealing.

    Hi Rhoda,
    I purchased the yellow dress a couple years ago and loved it so much I bought the red one. The yellow dress washes beautifully, but when I washed the red one on gentle cycle, cold water, and hung to dry, the top across the bust shrunk so much I can’t even button it. I emailed the vendor, asking for a replacement (I purchased the dress in February 22) and we are in discussions about that. Did you have any problems with shrinkage? Btw, I also have the black and white stripe and also purchased it in the gray and white stripe. Thanks, Rhoda.

      Hi, Barbara, so far I haven’t had any problems with shrinkage. Hope you can get it resolved and glad you like those. They are cute dresses!
