I'm in My 50s, and These Are the 5 Places I Always Shop

There’s no doubt that our style evolves as we get older. By the time you’re in your 50s, you have the wisdom to know what pieces work for your lifestyle, career, body, and personal taste. There’s a confidence that lies in an over-50 woman's wardrobe—you don’t force yourself to wear trends that don’t work for you, and by now you’ve built a reliable capsule wardrobe that consists of timeless staples along with powerful statement pieces. Eager to find out where stylish women in their 50s shop to create said reliable wardrobe, I tapped into one fashion-forward woman's wardrobe who I love to follow on Instagram for her chic style: Renata Jaz. Below, she's sharing the retailers, stores, and boutiques she loves to shop for classic and trending pieces alike, along with some of her current must-haves from each store. Read on to get inspired by her picks.

Good for: Blazers and suiting

"I’m a big fan of Frankie Shop. Their online store is amazing, and whenever I’m in Paris I always visit their flag store! I love high-quality suits and blazers which I could wear for years and they never go out of style, and that’s exactly what I can find in Frankie Shop. Beautiful suits and blazers, perfectly tailored, and very easy to style."

Good for: Knits

"British weather favors sweaters. Living in England means that I wear knits all year round, and my wardrobe is full of them. Therefore, whenever I buy them I pay attention to their quality... I love cashmere knits as their quality is always amazing, which means that I can wear them for years.  Because I wear knits pretty much all the time I’m not afraid to pay a bit more something beautifully made and one of a kind. Net-a-porter and Farfetch are perfect for this kind of purchase."

Good for: Minimalistic elements

"Minimalistic coats, dresses, and shorts are in fashion right now. They are easy and comfy to wear. I love wearing green minimalistic pieces and add fun a fun bag and shoes. Whenever I looking for minimalistic pieces I tend to go to COS. They are affordable and their designs are absolutely amazing!"

Good for: Basics and denim

"My go-to store when looking for basics (e.g white racer tops and t-shirts) and jeans is Zara. Their tops are always good quality and affordable, so I often buy the same top in 3 or 4 different colors. And when it comes to jeans, they have a great range from; simple denim jeans to more trendy ones."

Good for: Shoes and bags

"Shoes and bags are my essentials! I have a habit of creating my outfit from bottom to top, so I start with shoes and bags and build my outfit around them. Hence I believe in investing a bit more in shoes and bags. I also think that they can make any outfit more unique. My favourite place to shop shoes and bags is Luisa Via Roma, their selection is always up to date. Whether you are looking for party heels and statement bags to summer slides and classic pouches. You can find there the most desired pieces."

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 . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
