Leopard is one of this season’s must-have trends. I scored a Metrostyle perfect leopard sweater for my recent vacation to Paris, France.
Full disclosure: I love to stand out in any crowd by wearing elegant and chic classic attire, especially for my age (61). Sometimes, our society expects women of a certain age not to be interested in fashion or style and to dress frumpy.
That’s so not the case.
I started this blog for that very reason: to highlight women over 50 and share how one can age gracefully while remaining fashionable and healthy.
Are you interested in standing out from the crowd? Metrostyle is a great new site that offers unique, affordable, fashion-forward clothing.
Metrostyle offers an array of professional and effortlessly cool clothing at affordable prices. Everyone has choices—petite, tall, or plus- no matter what size.
Fast-forward to planning what pieces I wanted to take on my holiday to Paris. I selected a wool leopard print sweater with zippered pockets for the cooler November temperatures to wear during our Ama River Cruise along the Seine. In the outfit photos above, I chose to wear the leopard swing sweater over wide-leg cropped pants and black suede boots as my dinner outfit in Montparnasse.
I work full-time as a pharmaceutical sales representative. In this industry, there aren’t any relaxed dress codes. It is still essential to convey a professional appearance. I would wear this sophisticated sweater to work, but tone down the look, pairing it with a dress, basic skirt, or pants, not high suede boots.
Remember my question, “Are you interested in standing out in a crowd?” If yes, bring out your inner diva with distinctive apparel at Metrostyle.
Let me know what you select on Metrostyle.
Have a fabulous and stylish week!

Jodie,
Hi! Thank you, Jodie! I had fun selecting the Metrostyle sweater and challenging myself to style it to perfection.
I love this jacket (a sweater for me, is closed at the front. This is a jacket for me). I would buy it in a heart beat. It is not expensive either. I just cannot stand wool. It irritates the hell out of me. You looked fab. Every inch a Parisian lady. You did very well.

Greetje,
Hi! Thank you for stopping by the Age of Grace, I appreciate the visit and comments. I agree with you the sweater does look like a jacket. And finally, I am fortunate to be able to tolerate natural fibers, especially wool.
You look fanstatic and I love the leopard print jacket!
Cynthia,
