Safari Outfits for Women over 50
The perfect safari outfit for women over 50. Is there such a thing?
YES!
Don't make the mistakes I made on my first safari. I am ashamed of those pictures where I look more like a camel herder than a chic over 50 women! I went for my 50th birthday, and believe me. I regret my outfit choices. You know, when you wake up at night, in shock?
Well this happens to me when my meditation fails, and I think back to those images. But after ten safaris and a few years later, I am the queen of style on my safaris. I am going to share my knowledge with you!
I am a female over 50, and all the clothes and jewellery you see on this page and on this website are owned by me!
The Perfect Safari Outfit for Women
A safari is a journey of the soul. It is for every occasion and for all the senses. I believe that what you wear has to reflect you, be comfortable, but also make you feel good. You invested in an ethical luxury safari and bought the sustainable, timeless necklace, and now you want beautiful pictures.
I have written quite a bit on Safari Outfits for 2026; Safari Style for Mature Women and What to Wear on Safari for Women over 50 - please do take a look.
The Essential Brown Vest
The ultimate layering piece for the unpredictable Kenyan climate. It offers practical utility and the perfect colour for every adventure.
The Crisp White Jean
A staple for the boutique lodge experience. Its clean and a bright contrast to the earthy tones of the savannah. It is perfect for relaxing at the camp, storytelling in the evening or visiting the trust. Do not wear on a bushwalk! When you go on a walk opt for a darker colour trouser.
The earth, white or green linen.
This top is breathable. It fits in with the sustainable lodge and the general safari aesthetic. I love colour, so I usually contrast this tone with a vivid necklace.
Cotton and linen also keep you cool in the sun. Or give you space to breath if its raining.
The crossbody is also essential on a safari! That is true for anyone between 19 to 60 who is interested in Safari Style.
The Statement Artisan Necklace
I think by now, you have guessed that I love this necklace! See my Safari Style page, where I show you how to stlye this on Safari and at home
More than jewellery, this necklace is a bridge to local culture. It is hand beaded and bold. It transforms any outfit into a celebration of Kenya.
It is timeless and elegant.

Remember where you will wear these outfits
When you are very very close to wildlife....
When you are watching crocodiles form the Ewaso Nyiro River
My looks are part of my concept of Active Luxury. These are active luxury pieces that are durable for the bush, but elegant enough for a sundowner. They are also ethical enough to wear with pride at home or in Kenya.
My core beliefs are
