Best Online Clothing Stores for Over 35’s That Don’t Suck
As a gal that is now in my forties, I still want to dress nice – and I’m not ready to start wearing drab clothing that will age me or make me look like a Nanna. I still wanna look cool as f*ck….
But I have found that I care about other qualities in clothing – such as fabric choices, fit and length. And I’m willing to pay more for select pieces that I know I will have forever. I do appreciate a lovely cotton jersey or organic bamboo because it is cool and it breathes and feels lovely on the skin – as when I was young I’d rock the polyester without a second thought.
I have parts of the body I’d rather hide (my Mummy Tummy and batwing arms) – and parts I’d love to show off (legs, boobs..). So I have chosen the following online stores carefully – places I would shop myself.
Best Day-to-Day Clothing for Over 35s
Boden Clothing Australia
Location: Australia and Worldwide
Boden is worldwide and has not long been in Australia. Boden has lots of timeless, quality pieces that will last you forever. I particularly love their jersey dresses… They fit beautifully, wash well and never lose their shape. Perfect for casual workwear, smart casual wear and awesome fitting jeans. If you care about fabric and how it feels against the skin, Boden is your go to.
Birdsnest![]()
Location: Australia
Birdsnest is one of my personal favourite sites. Check out their ‘outfit’ section, great when you can’t decide what to wear! They have a real knack of putting different clothing together to form an entire outfit. Plus you can shop for body shape, personality, and occasion. Genius!
SPORTSCRAFT Australia
Location: Australia
Sportscraft has workwear, dressy casual and casual wear for women. Their style is very country and relaxed. Classic, easy to wear pieces that are long-lasting.
Cooper St
Location: Australia
Cooper Street Clothing has been around for over 25 years and has feminine, girly clothing that is perfect for the over 35 market – even though they do cater to all ages. Particularly good for Race Wear or to find something to wear to a wedding.
Motto
Location: Australia
Motto Fashion is based in Melbourne and focuses on ‘Slow Fashion’ for women. They only make 40 – 100 pieces of each style so you won’t (hopefully) see anyone else wearing the same thing you are! All the fashion is designed and manufactured in Melbourne.

Noni B
Location: Australia
Now before you roll your eyes, some might consider Noni B a ‘Nanna’ shop, but if you hunt through the clothing, quite often you can find a cute little number perfect for you! One of my favourite navy polka-dot dresses I found at Noni B! Mainly for over 50’s – it is worth a look!
Katies
Location: Australia
Katies is located in most shopping centres. They have amazing pants that are so comfortable. I have 30 pairs of Katie’s pants. Great for casual wear, but seriously – the pants rock. Oh did I tell you their pants are awesome?
Leona Edmiston
Location: Australia
Leona Edmiston has a classic, beautiful clothing line that is pricey but excellent quality. Their dresses are suitable for dinner and drinks or to attend a wedding. Very femininely styled with cinched waists and a-line skirts.
Veronika Maine
Location: Australia
Veronika Maine is renowned for its technical innovation and high-quality finishes. Timeless pieces that will last a lifetime. They also have a dress I’d kill for but it is $220 and my husband would seriously kill me if I spent that much on a dress! Very high-quality fabrics and styles.
Seed Heritage
Location: Australia
Seed Heritage is the best place for high-quality casual wear. They have adorable jumpers, coats and shoes. The perfect outfits for travelling.
Blue Bungalow
Location: Australia
Blue Bungalow has clothing that covers more of the parts we don’t like, and accentuates the bits we do! They have workwear, weekend wear, resort wear and clothing for plus size women.

David Lawrence
This is a brand I’ve only discovered in the last year when going through Myer. At first glance they can look like ‘old ladies clothing’ – but wait – they have some really nice classy pieces, perfect for work! Think pencil skirts, silk blouses and blazers.
Mister Zimi
Location: Australia
Mister Zimi has women’s resort wear and holiday-themed clothing. Cute, comfortable with bright colours, bold prints and light fabrics that scream ‘Summer!’. Totally adorable!

So Ted Baker is perhaps one of my favourite luxury brands – very pricey but has some absolutely stunning pieces that are really well made and will last for years and years and years. Good for investment pieces.
Kate Spade
Location: Australia and Worldwide
Yes you probably know of Kate Spade for the amazing handbags, but the gorgeous high-end brand now has a delicious range of women’s clothing that are anything but boring. Bright colours in beautiful materials that flatter the figure. I want some!
