15 Boho-Western Staples For Women Over 40
1. Our Favorite: Chic enough to wear to the office yet relaxed enough to lounge in, this smocked puff-sleeve dress is ready for any activity. We’re dying to pair the feminine frock with our favorite knee-high boots.
2. Fierce Fringe: Call Us crazy, but this fringe bucket bag looks like it came from a pricey designer. If fringe isn’t your go-to, the chic bag also comes in sleek solids like green and orange.
3. Simple and Chic: Enhance your basics with this sweet but sophisticated lettuce-edge top. With a little bit of frill and fun, it brings a youthful energy to every woman’s closet.
4. Ruffles Galore: This long-sleeve ruffle blouse brings the Western vibes without venturing into costume territory. Shoppers say the “super cute” blue floral top looks great with a pair of jeans.
5. Slimming Fit: A vibrant fit-and-flare prairie dress will carry any 40-something straight into fall without a fuss. Designed with a ruched, cinched waist, the demure dress brilliantly slims the midsection.
6. Novelty Jeans: Aside from being a slimming pair of baggy jeans, this high-waisted pick also features chic embroidery details at the hem. One reviewer said they’re the “best jeans [they’ve] ever purchased.”
7. Designer Rival: Who knew Old Navy sold such gorgeous mid-calf riding boots? The equestrian footwear style looks far more expensive than it is. The boots also pair well with everything from jeans to sweater dresses.
8. Luxe Accessory: You don’t need to shop at a pricey designer brand to grab your next skinny leather belt. This quiet-luxury option features a durable leather-like material and stunning gold hardware.
9. Poised Prairie: This ruffle-collar maxi dress has that perfect marriage of boho and Western style. Even better: it comes in petite, regular and tall sizes for up to 4X.
10. Perfect Pinafore: Think you’re too old for a pinafore? This sleeveless, roomy pinafore dress flips the script with a relaxed fit and that just‑right length that you can layer over your favorite tops and tees.
11. Size Inclusive: If high-waist jeans aren’t cutting it, these wide-leg jeans take things up a notch. The extra-high fit and super-snatched waist smooths things out, while the breezy draped leg keeps things relaxed.
12. Flirty and Fun: Don’t let your age stop you from embracing crop tops. This tie-front blouse lets you embrace the flirty, fun trend with breezy tiers that skim nicely.
13. Rugged Beauty: It wouldn’t be a chic Western edit without a classic faux-suede jacket. Designed with a tailored, cropped fit, this fall piece won’t have you drowning in fabric — just compliments.
14. Denim Demure: This long-sleeve denim shirtdress is all we need to carry Us into a fashionable fall. Inspired by menswear, the loose silhouette would look stunning with Chelsea boots.
15. Trendy Print: Cow-print shoes are back with a vengeance, and this faux suede mule is a sophisticated take on the trend. You’d never guess the expensive-looking style is less than $50.
