Spiegel gets back to Reality.....
Dressing that is!
Here is their Fall 2007 take on dressing for any age...
Realty Dressing - Fabulous At Every Age
Once again (I posted on this originally back in March when they did this the first time) they have some interesting choices. My favorites across the years that contain elements that could work for the 50+ woman as well?:
For the 20 something:
I don't think that faded jeans work for the older woman - a dark wash serves her better. But the tank and sweater could definitely work for the 50 plus femme!
For the 30 something:
Once again, the dark washed jeans definitely works - and I think the sweater could work as well with the right 50+ figure! ; - )
For the 40 something:
I've been looking at this jacket for a while, wishing it came in grey as well as this tan tweed. But I must say that with the pants (which can look a bit much I know which might not work for a more petite gal) I'm a bit more inclined to like the tan! And I even find the leopard print acceptable (I'm not a huge fan of animal prints!)
For the 50 something (Hurrah!):
I would probably ditch the foo-foo blouse in favor of a more crisply tailored shirt in either the same color or white - but the dark blazer and pants definitely work!
For the 60 something:
My general dislike of animal prints aside, I would wear this outfit in a heart beat!
To infinity and beyond!
I simply love the shirt and shoes of this outfit!
Once again, I appreciate the acknowledgement by Spiegel that women of all ages want to keep a modern spin to their dress. So skip on over and check out the other looks!

Reality Dressing over at Spiegel...
One of the things I love about Harper's Bazaar is a feature they have in every month's issue. Titled "Fabulous at Every Age", the article takes the most current fashion trends and breaks them down for women ages 20 to 70 giving examples of how to wear that trend for your age group.
It is a great feature and I believe they are the only fashion mag out today that does this as a regular feature! If you get a chance to check it out do - I highly recommend it.
Now it looks like Spiegel is attempting to do the same.....
Reality Dressing: Fabulous at Any Age
I think it is a good first attempt. However, they fall short in my eyes in that they suggest pieces that don't always come in every size - definitely something they need to improve!
Still, I'm heartened to see at least the beginnings of major retailers realizing that women at every age want to remain stylish -- and the sample outfits do have promise.
So go on over and take a look - and kudos to Spiegel for getting with the program! ;- )
