Taylor Swift-Inspired Reputation Era Looks for Women Over 50
Whether you love her or not, Taylor Swift is definitely on almost everyone’s mind these days. Since she announced her Eras tour, my granddaughters have been singing her songs non-stop. Just when it began to wind down, the Travis Kelce development happened. I say if you can’t fight them, join them! Why should the young girls have all the fun? Taylor Swift is a fashion icon, and today, I’m sharing how to wear Taylor Swift-inspired Reputation Era looks for women over 50. Like the fans at her concerts, I’m focusing on one era – Reputation.
The Reputation Era aesthetic is leather, black, snakeskin, basically, anything that says I’m bad to the bone, so don’t mess with me. Don’t worry; I won’t have you in short black miniskirts with snakeskin high-heel boots. I’ve got you covered!
Taylor Swift-Inspired Reputation Era Looks for Women Over 50 – Leather
Another great pair of ponte pants, this time in full faux leather. These are from Ann Taylor and are available in regular and petite. Black looks great, but they also come in chocolate brown. These are straight-leg, hit at the ankle, and, most importantly, very stylish!
I have an old argyle sweater set almost identical to this pattern. That sweater set is one of my favorites, but it no longer fits me. So, when I saw this V-NECK ARGYLE CARDIGAN, I immediately placed my order for it and the matching sweater vest.
See? These faux-leather leggings are chic and elegant! These ponte pants from JJill are very flattering and would be great for work or weekends! Pair it with a great top or sweater, and hit the door. They are 70% viscose and have an elastic waistband to add to the comfort level.
Ann Taylor is rocking the Reputation Era looks! Look how elegant this faux leather pencil skirt is. This would work for the office or the upcoming holidays. I think these pointed-toe heels look great with it, but you could also wear boots, both ankle booties and taller versions.
How To Wear Taylor Swift-Inspired Reputation Era Looks for Women Over 50 – Leather
I LOVE this peplum top. This is a shirt that can be dressed up or down. Pair it with jeans and cute flats or a pair of skinny pants and booties. I dressed it up with this pair of check pants and block-heel pumps. I’m wearing my usual size 8 pants, but they feel too baggy on me. The peplum top has a hidden back zipper to help get it off and on. Like the pants from Ann Taylor, this also comes in classic and petite.
Here’s a little black dress with attitude. The faux leather trim on the A-line dress is perfect for those who want a little edge without wearing head-to-toe leather. The trim on the bodice, waist, and collar adds the right touch. I also love the 3/4 length sleeves; it’s a great dress from Talbots.
Talk about an edge! Y’all know I love a good moto jacket. This faux leather offering is available on Amazon and is an inexpensive way to incorporate the Reputation Era aesthetic. After 3,600 reviews, it has a 4.5-star rating. Not bad for a jacket that’s under $50 dollars!
You have to love a nice black pair of tall boots! Throw on some skinny jeans and a cool top with these boots, and WOW. I don’t care how old you are; it’s never too late to show a little attitude. Black goes with the Reputation Era look we’re after, but these are also available in shades of brown.
How To Wear Taylor Swift-Inspired Reputation Era Looks for Women Over 50 – Snakeprint
I love wearing animal print, although my go-to is usually leopard. Snakeprint is a great option! I love this in black and white. It would go perfectly with both the pants and the skirt above. I found this at Belk, which I think is typically very affordable.
Here’s another great snakeskin option. I talk a lot about a pop of color. This is a pop of BAM. This would look amazing against a black dress or with black leggings and a great sweater. You’re in luck if you want something other than black and white. It also comes in a red version!
I like a snakeskin print, and I have a pair of heels (somewhere ?) in this same color. I thought this envelope clutch would look great with them, and since it is under $20, I don’t have much money invested in it.
How To Wear Taylor Swift-Inspired Reputation Era Looks for Women Over 50 – Snake Jewelry
I know this won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but I thought it would be fun to share some snake jewelry. I’ve had several pieces of snake jewelry through the years. You’ll find them sometimes in vintage shops. I would still have them, but my daughter is a huge fan of snakes and has claimed them all. She really loved these earrings and this ring. I think this would be chic with the right black top, and of course, it would be a great conversation piece.
Another fun snake jewelry option is this ring from Amazon. It’s under $15 dollars but has almost 2,000 reviews for a rating of 4.5 stars. I know a lot of people don’t like snakes, but they are a symbol of good luck and protection. Plus, imagine all of the Swifties you’ll meet wearing this ring!
Let me know what you think, Gurls! I hope you found something to like, even if you’re not a TS fan! (P.S. – That’s Taylor Swift, not Tania Stephens! Lol!)

Hi
Love the Argyle sweater set and the leather pants from Talbots.
I love the leather look. Any insight to where a gurl can find leather pants in tall or 34 in or > inseam?
Lynn, my daughter has issues with finding long inseams too. She used to get a lot of her jeans from Lucky. Here is a pair of leather pants from Banana Republic factory that comes in a 34″ inseam: https://bit.ly/3QqTmDq
This is great. Thanks so much!
I love all your ideas,it helps motivate me
cute post, I still have a short black faux leather skirt and moto jacket and I’m 70!
love the looks. I saw the Eras tour movie today. It was great! She is so talented on many levels.I wore a silver glitte r skirt from Macy’s and a Taylor Tee from Etsy.
I love that!!!
I am so under a rock so it was fun to read and see the Taylor Swift reputation era info. Also, love your verses for the day. It is why I subscribed!
I loved everything about today’s post! Thanks so much! You look great in faux leather, that’s for sure!
I’ve just added my email to your mailing list. I love how you’ve organized your blog as I’m playing around with the idea of my own blog or e-commerce store. Any suggestions you have would be welcome. I’m sure success doesn’t happen overnight. Whatever I do I plan on a blog being my first step hopefully with a subject close to heart. I love your “50 is not old” slogan. I’m 56. I plan to enjoy checking out your daily reads.
Regards,

Tania, what size are you wearing in the Ann Taylor faux leather ponte pants? They look amazing, but wondering about the sizing and a side zip.
Ann, I’m wearing a medium. The back of the pants are a ponte knit, so they have a good amount of stretch to them.
Gorgeous outfits and funny story!! 😂
It was hilarious, especially when we played the video back to him.
Loved everything! I’m 56 yrs young. Thank you.
I like the faux leather skirt. I don’t like snake jewelry or snakes at all. I always think of the serpent in the garden. Taylor Swift is never on my mind.
WOW Tania, you’re fierce in that first outfit!!!
I really like the snake print blouse!
I love the argyle sweater set and the snakeskin shirt. I looked at some faux leather pants yesterday at Kohls, and they just felt like they would be hot and uncomfortable for me. Thanks for the hours you must spend searching out all these ideas for us!
All very cute outfits whether inspired by Taylor or not.
Exactly!
Tania, I’m interested in the leggings from J. Jill. It says below waist. I’ve grown accustomed to high rise to help with my tummy. What do you think about them in regards to the waist❓I’m petite.
Joan, I don’t have those leggings, so I’m not sure. I’m not wild about high waisted items, and prefer mine to be at my belly button.
I like the pencil skirt and the Moro jacket.
I like the black and white snake prints, and the ring!
Great article. You can add different pieces to for whatever look you want. Like the snakeskin top.
I have a snakeskin top that Joe loves. He comments on how much he likes it every time I wear it.
Great post, you look good in all the outfits. My husband wants to see the movie.
Love the black leather peplum top from Ann Taylor. Do u find that brand size runs a bit smaller than Talbots? I normally wear a medium petite in Talbots but wondering if I need large petite in that one. I’m 5’3 and 130 lbs. Any thoughts??
Pam, I think they run about the same size. I’m wearing a large top, but I think it is a smidge too big. A medium would probably work, but I don’t want to feel like I have to suck in all day either.
Love the snakeskin top and the purses. Taylor has great style and she’s a great inspiration to all.
What size did you get in the Moto Jacket?
Alexxi, I didn’t buy that one since I already have several.
Thanks!
These are such fun looks! I love how you have styled each look to be edgy yet age-appropriate and elegant. That peplum top is amazing! Not loving the snake jewelry or snakes in general 😱, but everything else is really fabulous!
What red lipstick are you wearing?
It is called Daring Red. Here is the link for it: https://shopstyle.it/l/b2GUM
You can really rock the (faux) leather look! Very chic.
It’s so great to see all the trend forward fashions you post that help us feel like we’re not left behind!
Fun post! Love the snakeskin purses but not sure I can have a snake around my neck 😂
Haha. My daughter would love it but I understand. 😃
I like the examples of black faux leather. I bought a faux black leather motor jacket.
I like the faux leather skirt
Wow – these leather pieces are awesome! Thanks for all the inspiration.
The dress is stunning!
Thanks for the fun post
Fun looks!
Like the Moro jacket
Not sure I would wear the snake jewelry, but you never know
Lol! It’s not for me either, but my daughter loves it.
I really enjoyed your post today. These styles are a little edgy without being inappropriate for us 50+ gals.
This is a fun post Tania! My 3 Grandgirls (ages 19 to 23) adore Taylor and live in KC so Travis is very adored too. Now, I adore him too mainly because of how much he loves his mother! I am off to Talbots for that dress and sweater set!
Terry, my oldest granddaughter is a huge Taylor fan, but she also likes Travis. They went to watch the playoffs one year, and she had to buy his jersey to wear to the game.
Love all of these! So chic!
Yay! I love them too!
Your makeup in today’s posts is really gorgeous! What are you doing differently?
I wore a red lipstick. That brightens the face!
Looks good on you but not really my style. I do like those cute checked pants though. The snake necklace and bracelet are a little bit creepy. LOL
Lol! I know a lot of people don’t like snake jewelry. I can do snakes, but not spiders. Hahaha!
Too bad there is not a like button,I found myself trying to push a like button ha! Great post, loved every item!j
I’m so glad you enjoyed the post!
I do like the look of faux leather.
Thank you, Tanya, you sound like a fun, adventurous person. This is definitely more edgy but I think the pieces can be styled together with classic pieces for a modern updated look.
Gosh Tania! You did a great job of the Reputation segment of your blog today. Everything is great looking and it all looked very good on you! Thanks for that…I would wear it!
Donna, my goal was too still look like a woman over 50, but to have some fun with the trend.
I’m waiting for Taylor’s washed up era. So tired of hearing about her and her bad choices. She’s no role model for young girls. ☹️
Some people don’t like her for her choices. But, she is a great role model in a lot of ways, such as follow your dreams. She is relatable, and writes about problems that a lot of young women face. She is successful, and shows that she cares about her fans, and makes a point to try and interact with them. Also, like her causes or not, she stands up for what she believes in. Those qualities are admirable. She isn’t perfect, but most of us aren’t, and thankfully we don’t have our lives and every decision splashed across every news outlet.
the first outfit is adorable. Love T. swift!!!
I have never worn leather but am drawn to the faux leather pencil skirt. There are so .any possibilities with it.
The argyle sweater set is so classic. Argyle never goes out of style. The snake jewelry is interesting, just not me. Thanks for a fun post.
I hate snakes so I always avoid anything snakeskin! Haha. It looks great on you, Tonya. But s anything snakeskin gives me the heebie, jeebies!!!
Thanks for keeping me in style! You’re the first thing I read each morning.
Great job with the Reputation inspired clothes and accessories. Love what you do and LOVE LOVE LOVE T.S. Did you see the movie this weekend? It was amazing!!!!
Jane, I didn’t see it. I don’t have anyone near me that would like to go to it, and I doubt that Joe would be a fan. Lol!
Love the pointe leather trim leggings!
I am definitely a T. S. fan and this is not Taylor Swift!! I enjoy reading your emails every morning!! I am ordering the jacket this morning!!
Have a blessed day!!
Love these looks! As we get older it’s difficult to stay “hip” and not look like we are trying so hard. Thanks for showing these options
Love all of the leather
I love that peplum top.
