J Crew & Madewell Over 50 Fashion Favorites

Do you tend to wear the same colors over and over?  Black, camel and gray are my go toos in the winter. I bought a couple of sweaters at J Crew and Madewell before Christmas that I love.  I was leafing through J Crew (I love their sweaters) looking for some of my favorites on sale.  I kept noticing cerise.  Cerise is a good red for me because it has enough blue in it to compliment the gray hair.  I have put together some of my J Crew & Madewell Over 50 Fashion Favorites and added cerise to the mix.  What do you think?  Care to venture out of your color comfort zone with me?

Favorites In This Group

I own the Madewell jeans (not usually an “aged” jean fan), but I really like the fit of the 9″ high rise skinny crop.  They fit me perfect. I purchased the J Crew Turtleneck sweater high low with side slits and I LOVE it. I want to order the camel and the cerise, currently not on sale but at $69.99 they are a good price. I own the leopard scarf from Sole Society.  Fun and inexpensive. The J Crew Perfect Shirt is a favorite.  I am going to order the cerise. The beautiful cashmere wrap is not on sale (yet) but I am sure it will.  It’s a classic. I own the leopard perfect shirt and wear it all the time. I LOVE the Seychelles scuba bootie (a stylish bootie that is also comfy)  They are cut wide enough to accommodate the dreaded bunion but fit snugly around the ankle a win-win.  I own the J Crew vest in several colors and live in them (sorry as of today sold out in red).  I would not normally spend the $$ for a pair of red shoes but these J Crew Smoking slippers are on sale!

Chambray shirt I already own, the Demylee leopard sweater blazer is not on sale but I will be all over it when it does go on sale. Cerise cashmere gloves and scarf on sale. I own the j crew tortoise hoops (super cheap and I love them!) The pretty horn bangle group would look nice with the hoops.  I already own my own group.

Additions to this Group

The additions in this group are the Demylee Boxy Sweater from J Crew.  I bought this sweater on sale in black and I love it.  It is really boxy and heavy (pricey not on sale) so it may not be for everyone.  I would love to get it in camel when it goes back on sale. It is beautifully made. The Zara scarf could not be linked you can find it here. The cute sweater blazer from J Crew can be purchased in the blazer style (great for petites) or the longer style. I love the Belmont Sweater from Madewell.  It was sold out all through Christmas back in stock on sale in more colors.  I am ordering in golden harvest shown above.  Lastly, I am a big fan of the Madewell bandanas (I have way too many).  They are inexpensive and add a little punch to a button down shirt.  All items linked in widget below.

If you follow me on Instagram you know that we recently had family pictures taken (a wonderful gift from our daughter) I am pictured with Summer in my favorite J Crew Turtleneck Sweater with Side Slits.  I am wearing a small when reordering I think I will try an XS.
