Update Your Spring Wardrobe with these 3 On Trend Tops from Express

Beautiful, on trend, and age-appropriate...

I thought my days of shopping at Express were over. That’s the truth. Oh boy, was I wrong.

I’ve been seeing Express tops and dresses while scrolling my Instagram feed… on women my age (I'm almost 49)... and they looked amazing! So, I decided to step inside Express for the first time in about twenty years. 

I must have taken around forty pieces into the dressing room… forty things I really liked. After trying everything on I took home ten pieces that I had to have. Below I'm sharing three of the tops I absolutely love that I know I'll be wearing on repeat this spring season.

I’m such a sucker for a pretty floral print. And the color on this one, love! The puff sleeves and the tie back on this floral puff sleeve top won my heart. Of course, I could wear this top with jeans but I wanted to try something a little dressier. So, I paired it with this ivory Chino from J.Crew along with a blush braided block heel sandal

Now, I know what you’re thinking… is it okay to show your tummy after a certain age? Well, if you’re okay with it then so am I!

I’m wearing a small in the top and a 27 in the pants. This is a size 7 in the sandal. All are true to size.

The perfect mix between feminine and flirty! The gorgeous floral print stands out with the short puff sleeves, faux wrap back detail, and the banded waist that ties into a bow in the back.

I’m always looking for new blouses. This satin pistachio green peplum top caught my eye. It's a gorgeous color and it looks way more expensive than it was. I find a crossover neckline and a peplum waist are super flattering. It works for just about everyone and it can conceal a little tummy too! I’d put a stitch in the front of this top to keep it closed or you could wear a pretty cami or something lacy underneath. 

I wore this top with crop flare jeans... my latest denim crush from Fidelity Denim... and a slide sandal from Dolce Vita

I’m wearing a small In the top, a 26 in the jeans, and a seven in the shoe. All are true to size.

A stunning satin blouse with a faux-wrap front, a flattering ruffle peplum hem, and long sleeves with smocked cuffs.

This floral smocked top is so pretty and feminine. You really must see it in person. Beautiful. It's cropped but when I pair it with something high-waisted it still works perfectly.

I cannot sing the praises of this denim skirt by Wash Lab Denim enough. I love the weight and the stretch of it and the fact that I don’t have to shave my legs when I wear it. I have been wearing mine for two years and it is still perfect and right on trend. And there are those braided sandals again!

I’m wearing a small in the top, a 26 in the skirt, if you are between sizes I would size down, and a 7 in the sandal.

P.S. Remember, if you ever tire of the length of the skirt, you can always shorten it.
