Holiday Dresses for Women Over 40

First of all, I always want to make it clear that I truly believe women over 40 can wear whatever they please.  But I do know that quite of few of us would like to cover at least a few body parts at this point in our lives. And we want to look vital, fresh, trendy AND classy.  And most of my readers don’t have time to scroll through endless strapless minidresses for eighteen year olds on the way to find something they love for themselves.  I scanned through many websites for the choices that I think will look stunning on all my midlife babes and I tried to keep different body shapes in mind.  I also picked dresses from $20-$700 so every budget can find the perfect match.  Here’s this year’s list. Let us know which one is your favorite!

 

Happy shopping, Ladies!

Fun & Fashion

About the blog: Fashion Should Be Fun is ME talking to YOU, other middle-aged women who are over 40, but not over fashion.  We still want to look beautiful and stylish.  We still want to have fun with trends.  And we don’t need anyone giving us rules, because we’re all different. This is a place for me to share my love of fashion with you, including style ideas, tips, trends, and inspiration. I know how liking the way we look can translate into confidence and energy. I know we have so much life left to live and so much adventure ahead of us. Let’s show the world you’re never too old to have fun and look fierce!

    It’s so hard to find good dresses that aren’t too revealing, but still fashionable. You really found some great ones!

    A lot say that life starts at 40, I agree, it is a great age to be more keen on fashion. I love bell sleeves, so classy.

    Great list! I bought the Ann Taylor black/floral midi.. I love the Anthropologie pleated midi but I don’t have anywhere to wear it!

    Thanks for coming to the Top of the World Style linkup party. The green sheath and the red plaid fit-and-flare dress are my favorites. Great picks.

      You would look great in both, Nicole!
