Hey friends! I hope you had a wonderful weekend and you’re ready to start a new week and, in two short days, a new month!
Today I’m thrilled to be teaming up with Beth Djalali from Style At A Certain Age. I have followed Beth for years, and I love her style and how she is committed to age with grace, strength, and beauty.
There are so many over 40, 50, and 60 bloggers, but Beth stands out because of her classic style and her zest for life.
Beth and I are sharing our 5 Classic Fall Pieces. I picked my five, and she picked her five. We could both probably pick more, but we narrowed it down to five for today’s post.
5 Classic Fall Pieces for Women Over 40
1. A Cardigan
When I think of fall, of course, I think of cozy cardigans, so I had to add a cardigan to my classic fall pieces. This cardigan is slightly oversized, and I love the pretty fall colors.
Cardigan • Camisole • Jeans • Booties • Earrings • Necklace • Necklace
2. Black Sweater
If there is one piece I seem to wear over and over during the fall season, it’s a black sweater. There are so many ways to wear a black sweater, and you can pair it with animal print, plaid, etc.
Black Sweater • Wit & Wisdom Jeans • Steve Madden Booties • Earrings • Necklace
3. A Blazer
This time of year, I love wearing blazers. Blazers are a classic!
Blazer (use code cyndi15 for 15% off) • Camisole • Jeans • Leopard Heel (similar option here) • Earrings • Necklace • Necklace
Blazer • Camisole • Jeans • Nude Heel • Earrings • Necklace • Necklace
4. A Camisole
I love wearing a camisole in the fall under my jackets, blazers, and cardigans. This camisole is one of my favorites. It’s fully lined and has adjustable straps. I also have it in black.
Camisole • Jeans • Leopard Heel (similar option here) • Earrings • Necklace • Necklace
5. Booties
I can’t talk about fall basics without talking about booties. These are a fall staple for me.
Wit & Wisdom Jeans (I’m wearing a size 4) • Steve Madden Booties (I size up 1/2 size)
Wit & Wisdom Jeans (I’m wearing a size 4) • Steve Madden Booties (I size up 1/2 size)

What socks do you wear with the booties that zip? They are so low cut on the sides it looks like socks/footies wouldn’t work?
What kind of bra do you wear with the camisole? Does it need to be strapless? A strapless would not be comfortable all day at work but I do love these blazers.
Really enjoyed your post and also meeting Beth on over at her blog. She is so cute and I like her style. Thanks for sharing her. 🙂 If you haven’t watched her jean video, you should. She has some neat tips.
I struggle to wear cardigans. I always feel shorter and frumpier! (is that a word)🤷♀️
I’m 5’4” and 115….help me with my mindset and learn to embrace this style. I love it in others
JJ….I’m 5’3″ and about 118lbs. I wear cardigans and love them, but the key is finding the right length one and I think they look best with skinny jeans and a little bit of a heel, but a heel isn’t a must, but I feel they don’t look frumpy if you do skinny jeans. Just don’t have the cardigan go too long. Just my thoughts. 🙂
I have and will always be a big fan! Love your style but I love your attitude more. xo
My #1 favorite fall piece is definitely booties!! #2 would be the cardigans.
BFTH- 100%
Praying for so so many at this time, the sick, the hurting, the troops, the persecuted Christians, the ones in the wake of storms… SO MANY.

I absolutely love the booties. But the one thing that keeps me from purchasing them is the extremely high heel! I’d love to see the same pair in a lower 2-21/2″ heel!
Great suggestions! What about the outfit in your title block? I am especially interested in those green pants.
The BFTH so true. I feel weak when I skip my bible study time etc with God. Thanks for the reminder. Are you wearing the oatmeal color blazer by Gibson? I ordered it from your rec. a few post ago. Still waiting on it to ship. In one post you bought small and another XS. I bought XS as I’m shorter than you so hope it fits. I think your ivory one was XS and your black small. Do you prefer one fit over the other? Thinking I need to buy the camisole too. 🙂 What size did you order? Have a great day and praying also for hurricane affected people. Just so sad. Too much going on in our world. Yesterday I had to just decompress from the news etc and get into a fiction book for awhile to escape it all.
How do you access the $17 slip on shoe?
I’m not sure what you’re talking about??
On your email post for today’s finds there is a graphic for a $17 slip on walking shoe. Is there a link to it?
Seems like It should be under Cyndi’s Finds for 8/30 but that date isn’t listed there.
What is your opinion on a black denim jacket.
I think it’s good if you find a cute one.
I love your jean jacket in the split picture with Beth. What is it, and where did you find it?
Cindy
In South Texas it’s pretty warm until end of Oct. so I usually get a few new fall blouses with maybe a three quarter sleeve and maybe floral fall colors to transition until it’s sweater time.
What do you think of the Amazon booties? I don’t want to pay over $100 for boots this year as the styles seem to change every season. What color would be the best neutral color in those booties?
I really like them and find the light brown is a great neutral color.
What kind of bra do you wear with the camisole? Does it need to be strapless? A strapless would not be comfortable all day at work but I do love these blazers.
