I Am 56, Live in NYC, and Upgraded My Wardrobe With These 7 Easy Items

The year you were born should have absolutely nothing to do with your fashion choices. But as we cover regularly, it’s those women over 50, in particular, that we tend to get some of the best sartorial advice given their experience with style trial and error over the years. One woman who just totally gets it? Influencer Elaine Davis (who happens to be 56), the blogger behind @squarepearls.

Davis resides in New York City and, as a result, keeps a wardrobe full of easy and comfortable pieces that are also sleek and elevated. In the summer, she actually specifically gravitates toward a few select staples in white hues. “I love to elevate my style with chic white pieces in the summer and beyond,” she told us. On that note, we asked Davis for more specifics on the versatile items she loves.

Keep scrolling to check out the easy items that have upgraded her wardrobe, complete with a bit of visual and shopping inspiration if something catches your eye.

“Add a cool white top underneath a blazer for just the right amount of edge." — Davis
"A pair of great-fitting jeans and a beautiful top exude casual-chic." — Davis
"Who doesn’t love an easy dress that can transition from day to night?" — Davis
"When you want to look and feel like a boss, a white suit always works." — Davis
"Mixing textures with a skirt makes for a super-classy night-out look." — Davis
"One of my favorites is jackets and pants that can be worn together or separately." — Davis
“I love adding a cute bag to a classic dress." — Davis

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato .
