Women Over 40 Wear These 6 Trendy Items With Simple Denim

We recently highlighted the pieces celebs over 40 years old tend to wear with jeans. Sure, the year you were born has nothing to do with what you should or shouldn't wear, but noting the outfit pairings women over 40 gravitate towards is often intriguing given their experience building chic wardrobes over the years. So on that note, we wanted to take a deeper look into the denim looks ladies in this age set rely on.
Specifically, we thought we'd turn to the Instagram accounts of some of our favorite over-40 influencers to check out those particularly trendy items they're teaming with simple and classic denim silhouettes. Keep scrolling to uncover six fashionable pieces that look A+ with jeans, complete with a bit of visual and shopping inspiration.
Ribbed Tank
Sure, tanks could be considered a basic, but the ribbed silhouettes are particularly noteworthy at the moment as a fashion-person staple. Try one alone with jeans or layered with other pieces like with this 'fit here.
Check Blazer
It's no secret that a blazer can add instant polish to any ensemble, including a denim look. A slouchy check jacket is modern and chic.
One-Shoulder Top
Asymmetric and one-shoulder tops have entered the scene again in a major way as a 2020 must-have. Team one with jeans and you have yourself an instantly stylish outfit.
Cardigan Set
If it's a transitional piece you're looking for, consider a trendy cardigan set. The best part is you can wear the tank on its own with jeans and add the cardigan when you need a little something extra.

Shop the coordinating Silk-Blend Tee ($35).
Shop the coordinating Mock-Neck Pullover ($68).
Tie Blouse
Sure, your standard button-down is a no-fail choice this season, but so are tie-up blouses for a cool vibe.
Peplum Top
Yes, peplum tops are back. While a range of the most fashionable silhouettes look A+ with trousers and skirts, they look especially elevated with straight-leg or flared jeans.
