A Chic Travel-Friendly Outfit for Labor Day
Crepe Halter Top
(J.Crew)
It starts with a beautiful halter top and city shorts from J.Crew. If a color is trending for fall, cobalt blue is seen everywhere. The top is available in buff clay and black and has matching pants that look dreamy to wear! I wasn’t aware the top had matching pants when I purchased it over a month ago, but guess what? The pants are on their way to my house. I can’t resist a matching set!

Many of you write in asking what bra to wear with halter tops. Hands down, my favorite is the Red Carpet Strapless Bra from Wacoal. This bra gets high marks due to its comfort factor, support, and the fact that it works for all cup sizes, not just A or B.

Accessories
To keep the outfit relaxed, I chose a pair of black slingbacks (old, similar slingbacks), but I added some bling with crystal earrings (sold out, similar crystal earrings) and matching bracelet. All in all, this outfit is casual, chic, and above all comfy and perfect to throw in your suitcase if you’re traveling and need an outfit for a casual dinner. But don’t forget you can always add a blazer to up the chic factor.

Hi Beth:
I love the outfit but wonder how much the crepe fabric wrinkles. I have a trip this fall and am looking for some easy to pack pieces that don’t require a lot of ironing.
The crepe does wrinkle but not as much as linen. Nothing a good steamer can’t help fix.
Gorgeous! I am seriously considering that crepe halter top. The color is just stunning on you, Beth 🙂 Just lovely.
It’s such a beautiful color! And the top can easily slip underneath a cardigan or blazer.
I love this beautiful blue outfit. Talk really looks nice for shorts too Guess who’s got the matching out for coming her way? I hope it’s beautiful as it looks online
I think you will love the outfit, Sherry! Can’t wait for the pants to arrive, they’re coming along on an upcoming vacation.
Hi Beth, My husband and I are going away for just a 2 day trip this weekend to Connecticut. We’re living in the Catskills of upstate NY. We are headed to an outdoor event so I’ll be wearing shorts, sneakers and a lightweight top. Love your outfit today. Also, would you mention in an upcoming post the makeup you’ve been wearing lately? Your skin looks radiant! Of course, I realize part of that is your excellent skincare regimen and healthy diet. Thanks so much for your posts.
I have a makeup post slated in the next week or two. Stay tuned!
Gosh, Beth, if there’s a woman able to prove one can age gracefully and enjoy Style At A Certain Age, it’s you. Twice this season you’ve modeled a halter top, looking as fresh and attractive as a young 20-something woman! Thought my love for halter tops was gone decades ago, but it’s been rekindled in my old age! Thanks so much for the nudge 😊
You always say the sweetest things, Sylvia! Thank you! But I truly believe style has no expiration date. And it’s been so dang hot lately! Halter tops are the perfect answer.
I always appreciate blogger that are over 40. You guys are inspiration. Btw love your taste.
