I decided to look into one of the many choices we have in fashion this fall and winter. In the process, I have formed a little guide that can be used as an inspiration to create outfits for any age with touches of punk futurism now.
It takes courage to dare to wear something new and different from what we’re used to. On the other hand, it takes guts to wear something we wore in the past once we get older. That’s where being true to your self comes in; you never have to stop being yourself. And when you get older, I believe it’s easier to break out of expectations and wear whatever you darn please.
This post is for women who want to do just that…and for women who want to take their look into the future a bit…and for women who have some punk rebel in them…and for women who love to wear black (is that all of us?)
Go ahead. Show your true self. And remember, age doesn’t matter!

From my Style Tips Series, I have an accessory tip. I’m exploring how to wear a beret. This has become adopted by the French as the classic hat to have. Therefore, it is always chic. But this fall and winter, it will be available more than usual in stores because it showed up on the fall runways. What you will find below is lots of inspiration for how to wear it. Age doesn’t matter. As I write this, I am excited to find new ways to wear my berets more often when the weather cools down!

My sister passed on to me her vintage 1980’s black watch plaid blazer back when I was working an office job. It’s still useful and always will be. A plaid blazer is an autumn/winter staple that can go from work to weekend. Age doesn’t matter. I have 33 ideas here for how to wear it. These ideas go beyond the matching suit. So if you have a plaid suit, you might want to break out that blazer and see what else it can do!
Since the plaid blazer is a print, I start out with print mixing ideas. Then I have a few ideas for wearing it with dresses and skirts. And finally, I came up with 20 ways to wear it with different colors of jeans and other types of pants. I hope you will make use of some of these outfit ideas. I’d love to hear from you if you will leave a reply below!
