Before we dive into this, let’s make one thing clear–you have the right to wear whatever your heart desires and look flawless while doing it, no matter what your age is. Date night is no exception. End of story.
With that being said, as you get older and more mature, there may be things you’re personally no longer comfortable wearing. Chances are, you probably don’t wear the same style of jeans and dresses as you did 10 years ago, and that’s a good thing. As you age, your style should evolve too. However, it’s a very wrong assumption to think that just because you’re over the age of 30, you can’t dress cute and be chic anymore. That line of thinking is very far from the truth.
Even though you don’t wear the same type of clothes in your 40s as you did in your 20s, doesn’t mean you’re any less fashionable. If anything, you probably know your own personal style a little better now that you’re a little bit older.
For date night with your man, there are plenty of outfit ideas for women in their 30s and older that are fashion-forward and flattering. These outfits are age-appropriate and show that you’re mature and know your way around the fashion world, but aren’t the least bit matronly.
If you’re feeling uninspired for you’re next date night, take note of these chic outfit ideas for women over 30 that will make you feel hotter than you ever have before.
1. fitted cami + classic blazer + your favorite jeans + pumps
Nothing says sophisticated like the fitted jeans and blazer combo. Rock a pair of mom jeans and a tucked in silk cami with a blazer layered over top to replicate this look. Pairing the outfit with heels adds an extra dose of maturity to the ensemble. This date night look is perfect for more casual dates like going to a show, concert, or low-key dinner.
2. fit and flare midi skirt + loose t-shirt + strappy sandals
Sporting a colored-themed outfit shows you know a thing or two about fashion. Opt for a midi length skirt with a pretty pattern on it instead of a mini skirt. Pick a color scheme with your skirt and top choice and then match your shoes and accessories to it. This ensemble is perfect for a springtime date because it’s bright, fun, and flirty.
3. basic top + layered statement jackets + black trousers + belt
The ability to layer fashionably comes with practice so this date outfit shows your maturity–in a really good way. Keeping your shirt and pant choice basic gives you the freedom to experiment with fun jacket styles and patterns. This white leather jacket layered underneath of bright patterned shaw is very fashion-forward. An outfit like this is fitting for almost any type of date–from a trip to a museum to a casual lunch date.
4. all black dress + black booties
Black looks good on everyone–that’s a fact. The dark color is super slimming and flattering so it should be your date-night go-to shade. A long fitted black dress is a striking date night choice. Pair it with your favorite black booties and a small black leather back to finish off the outfit. From exploring the city to a traditional dinner date, this outfit will have you looking amazing.
5. patterned wrap dress + heels + fun crossbody bag
Wrap dresses are super flattering because they accentuate your waist, drawing attention to for smallest area. To keep your wrap dress fun and youthful, pick one with a pattern on it like this navy dress with spots of red. Wear a pair of heels that compliment the outfit, not match it to a tee and you’ll look effortlessly chic.
