With the onset of maturity, even ladies who are very experienced in choosing jewelry, trying to express their individuality as convincingly as possible, often make gross mistakes in the selection of details. Without psychologically accepting their age, they, with the help of unsuccessful experiments and “bold” decisions, try to regain their former elegance and often fail as a result.
Don’t try to turn back time; at any age you can not only feel comfortable, but also look stylish. You must believe that you deserve the best! We hope that our recommendations on what jewelry does not suit the image of a 50-year-old fashionable and elegant woman will definitely help you.
Magpie or mature woman?
Wise with experience ladies, trying to restore the illusion of youth with the help of bright colors in clothes, styles of dresses or shiny jewelry that are inappropriate for the changed figure, They only harm themselves with such a choice. They unconsciously create a flashy “magpie style,” attracting the surprised and disapproving glances of passers-by on the street to their ridiculous appearance.
Many modern fashionistas understand that when creating an exclusive look, it is not enough just to choose clothes by correctly combining various items from the wardrobe. The main final point in your appearance will certainly be accessories, corresponding to business, classic, corporate, official or other style created by you.
It's time to choose the right accessories
Despite her Balzac age, every woman should have a special charm! Some ladies, having decided that their best time has already passed, stop paying attention to their appearance, being content with jewelry purchased during their youth. Others, on the contrary, trying to prolong their youth, buy products that are more suitable for the youth fashion trend.
Do you feel that the youth trend no longer suits you, but you don’t know how to change the image of an eccentric girl into a balanced and confident lady? This is an important question for many women over 50, so our professional stylist will help you make this difficult choice.
So, what jewelry should you absolutely not wear when you are over 50?
Earrings (cheap jewelry)
The right earrings will make your look sophisticated and elegant. But such an accessory can not only visually reduce a woman’s age, but also create the opposite impression, making her much older.
Immediately eliminate cheap jewelry from your wardrobe (plastic that looks like stone, peeling enamel, blackened metal, items with glass stones or earrings with paint peeling off over time). They do not decorate a woman who has reached a decent age; on the contrary, they look funny and absurd.
If you still have accessories from your youth, approach such things very carefully. You should no longer wear huge, wooden, made from dubious materials, bright, with many plastic or glass stones, earrings that have long since outlived their time. This image will not decorate you; it will only attract people’s attention to the young lady.
Don’t even think about replenishing your jewelry box with items from China. Your significant age status and elegant appearance should not be spoiled by cheap fakes. You deserve and deserve the best!
What will suit your look:
- small stud earrings with small Swarovski stones. They will match any look;
- earrings in the form of rings made of precious metals. Harmonious in many styles;
- modest wooden products of neat shape. Suitable for ethnic wear;
- small earrings with pearls or natural stones. They harmonize well with identical beads or necklaces;
- diamond jewelry will decorate you at a special moment in combination with a black evening dress.
Beads and necklaces made of artificial materials, scarves
Your skin in the décolleté area is probably no longer ideal after 50, and betrays your age. Don’t worry, you can easily hide this little nuisance.
Try not to focus attention on neck area, do not place jewelry directly on the skin. The only exception is a small silk scarf, just tie it around your neck. Or wear multi-row beads that cover your neck, you will be young and beautiful again.
Remove your entire collection of artificial beads and necklaces from your favorite box; they will no longer be useful to you. Don't skimp on rarities that ruin your new stylish look.
Your age will be impressed by long beads made of light materials or a string of pearls. You can combine several types that match the color and shape of the necklaces. They will visually reduce your volume and make your figure slimmer. Don't be afraid to experiment when updating your wardrobe.
Frankly youthful jewelry with an abundance of flowers and colors
Style mistakes can make a woman look much older than she actually is. Plastic multi-colored rings, strange tropical prints, sparkling stones, neon-colored clothes and huge accessories are the advantage of youth fashion.
It is in no way suitable for experienced ladies. The result will be completely opposite: a woman may look funny and, even worse, will seem to many to be a stupid young person.
To look younger than your age, you should abandon parrot coloring and youth trends. Choose jewelry worthy of your age - calm tones, or dilute bright colors, muting them with pastel nuances.
Gross kit mismatch
Earrings, ring, beads, necklace, bracelet and other accessories of different colors, made from various materials, can be worn, creating the so-called “set”, only by women ignorant in fashion or reckless young people who “don’t give a damn”.
Completeness is now in fashion for all ages. To create the perfect set, combine jewelry by color or shades, materials and shape. Create a cohesive piece that suits your style while matching your outfit and look.
Pretentious animalistic motifs
Animal prints are for young people. In such clothes and accessories they actually look stylish, it suits them. But such a catchy “color” in the set will definitely not give youth to already “established” ladies.
Women over 50 who adhere to new fashion trends can also afford animal prints in their everyday wardrobe. These should be just a few printed details that can complement a discreet minimalist look, such as a frame on glasses, a scarf, a bag, a watch strap or leopard-print shoes.
We hope our recommendations will help you. Don't be afraid to experiment, try new styles and create your own new look yourself, just don't overdo it. Combine clothes and accessories correctly - be fashionable and self-sufficient!

For the author of this opus: Baby, you will also be old... and judging by your recommendations - gray, shabby and dull - but you will call this “elegance”...))))
Do you prefer the “elderly clown” style? To each his own.
How people still love to judge and condemn! Dear author, a woman at any age tries to remain a woman. She can wear whatever she likes and suits. Look less at others and more at yourself. Surely there will be someone who will judge you for your bad taste.Personally, I like older women who are not afraid of bright clothes, large jewelry, who are cheerful and positive. Of course, you can give them humiliating nicknames like “elderly clown,” but everything depends on upbringing and tact. You have neither one nor the other.
Everything needs moderation. Unfortunately, no one notices what older women, and even older men, wear, because they don’t look at them—few people are interested in them. Perhaps they may seem funny to peers when they meet.
I work as a designer myself - jewelry is all worn individually and depends on the type of face, personality, and general outfit))) the rules were set by the wrong people, because jewelry cannot be adjusted to general standards))) they are only individual and age has nothing to do with it
since you write an elderly clown already speaks about your lack of taste madam))))
I didn't like your article. Some kind of jumble. You have to strain to understand what the author wanted to say when placing the illustrations: either it’s necessary or it’s not necessary. And the structure of the text is lame in places.
Hello, dear author! And no less dear readers! An interesting article for thought, it excites the thought... and that’s already good! I'm 43 years old and interested in style. The article gives recommendations regarding age, but is focused only on a certain style. I would call him -
age classic. But there are many different styles, and therefore many different recommendations! And if, for example, someone likes the style -
“clown”? I'm quite serious...Does it really depend on age? In my opinion, it depends on the state of the soul.. A person should have freedom of choice, i.e. individuality.. Otherwise, why all these decorations? The main thing is that our appearance is not an insult to others. And we need to learn to accept our neighbors as they are, after all, they have the right to do so! Thanks for the article and attention.
P.S. In my opinion, in the images presented in the photo, there is a lot of interesting, bold, funny, and even, in its own way, elegant.. Of course, there is something funny.. But let this make us smile in a kind, childish way.. Everyone joy!
How old is the author? I think about 12 years old. The grannies in the photo are well over 80. Is this how you imagine women “over 50”? At 15 years old, 20-year-olds seemed like ancient galoshes to me.
Let's not stigmatize! Everyone is free to be themselves)
I am also for restraint and a sense of style, without going overboard, otherwise everything is really funny and inappropriate
