Women in their 40’s, 50’s, and beyond want to look chic. But most of us don’t have the bodies we had years ago, so what’s a girl to do? Chico’s to the rescue! Stylish, classic, affordable, and oh, so FABULOUS!
Chico’s was founded in 1983 as a small boutique selling Mexican folk art and cotton sweaters on Sanibel Island in Florida. Their friendly environment and unique styles connected with customers in a special way that quickly evolved into over 700 Chico’s boutiques nationwide, a monthly catalog, and round-the-clock shopping at chicos.com.
There are so many reasons to love Chico’s. Here are a few of mine:
- Chico’s knows what I want and crave: Color, styles, and fabrics that fit and flatter the body I have now.
- Chico’s understands my lifestyle and needs. (Traveling, casual wear, comfort.)
- One-stop shopping. Chico’s has clothing that can take me from beach, to picnic, to cocktail hour.
- Sizing. Chico’s unique 0 – 3 sizing gets me excited about shopping. When I’m trying on clothes and I can wear a single digit, of course I’m thrilled!
- Choices. I’ll just mention two words: JEWELRY and ACCESSORIES!
Don’t we all just LOVE Chico’s?

I love Chico’s especially the travel collection! It was so nice of them to generously support BAMC16 and midlife women.
Yes, Doreen. The travel collection is great.Wrinkles be gone! Just pull out clothes from your suitcase and they are ready to wear! And a few pieces make a great travel capsule. Just add accessories.
I love reading the style tips that help me now that i am retired and not wearing scrubs all the time. I live on a ranch, but love going to cities for cosmopolitan culture, and want to fit in and feel comfortable with my appearance. Thank you, Mary
Chicos is such a great store for gals who like to dress fashionably even as we age! Love getting ideas from Chicos and I try to get some basics when they are on sale. Animal print is one of my favorite looks!
I love Chico’s. Everything a girl could possibly want they have and in beautiful colors!!
I love Chico’s and I love the style
I la la LOVE Chico’s! I would love to see more interview posts.
I want to see clothes with collars! Older women need that! Also, sleeves…….more straight cut lines, not curvy! I am 92 years old but still LIKE clothes!!! The simpler the better—just beautiful fabrics and colors!!! I LOVE your jewelry! I live in Temple and find it hard to get to Waco…….how about a trunk show in Temple some time????
QStyle is my favorite blog; it is fun to read and full of great ideas. I look forward to it every week! And I love Chicos! Their clothes make me happy and the staff members are always so helpful.
Chico’s has some hip clothing though I have a hard time understanding there sizing (0, 1,2,3, 4) They have beautiful pieces of jewelry and great clothing for day or night
Qstyle gives such great tips on fashion and how to put things together. I’m looking forward to my first visit to Janna’s next week!
Love all the ideas, the before and after pics. I love that the outfits are affordable and not over the top. Chicos does has great pieces.
I love Chico’s style. They are have great colors and a good selection.
Yes they do, Tee A.
They have something for everyone.
My wife loves the Chico products.
I’m new to Chico’s but can’t wait to see all the cool stuff

Ashley,
Thanks so much for writing.
I just found you! I love love love Chicos! Chicos is my style.
I think we are all in agreement..We love Chico’s!
There’s just something fresh and original about their clothes, their boutiques, and their friendly sales people that draw us to them. Thanks for writing, Mary Beth.
First visit to your site and I love it! I like your style, appropriate for middle aged women but with some jazz to it. I will definitely be back for more ideas 🙂
So happy to hear it, Kobi.
What lovely comments. Thank you.
I’d like to see more reviews and giveaways!
Will do, Nancy. Thanks for your comment.
I like QStyle for the jewelry posts.
More coming soon, Kelly.
Thanks for writing in.
I’m new to Chicos as well. But it looks like they have some really cute things and I can’t wait to find out more.
Julie,
The sizing is a little different, but once you get used to wearing size 0-3, it’s a snap. And their colors and styles are so fabulous. Every season they come out with the most original outfits. Mix and match and make it your own. And their accessories are to die for…and won’t break the bank.
Thanks for writing.
I love all these looks and they can work for any age
I know, Lauren. Isn’t that the truth. So many clothing stores I visit just don’t carry sizes and styles for the body I have now. That’s why I love Chico’s…style and fit, and pizazz!
I love all the stylish stuff and tips I can find on your blog and the items from Chicos are so classic.
Thank you for writing Helen.
We will keep them coming.
I love that Q Style focuses on women over thirty and making our quality of life better! My favorite post from the past few weeks would be the root touch ups-it was like you were reading my mind! I just started having this issue and I loved reading how to deal with it!
Lisa,
So great to hear we had some timely information for you.
Thanks for writing and good luck!
I love Chico’s styles. They are so much fun and make us look fabulous.
Fun…what a great word for Chico’s. Dressing should be fun!
Thanks for writing Pam.
Loving to accessories that are nice and colorful for the adults out there who want to look good
I like that I can come here and get style and fashion advice for ladies my age.
I just love all the outfits that you show, finally a site that shows clothes I would actually enjoy wearing
Peggy, Thanks so much for writing. My next blog will be about swimsuits. I hope it helps out when you are picking your next one! Our bodies are different today than they were twenty years ago, but we still want to look great.
Q style is my new favorite blog…love all the ideas
Love Chico’s jewelry!
I’m on that train, Meghan.
Thanks for writing.
I like the reasonable price point.
Yes, yes, yes, Lauren.
And so many sales and opportunities for special coupons. I always feel like I’m getting such a deal.
I love all the amazing styles!!
Yes, Brandy. Something for every body type, personality, and lifestyle.
would love to see more purple colors 🙂
I love that you take such a rounded approach to personal style. It’s not just about what designer dress came out that will work for you; it’s about finding accessories, clothes and things that make you feel *and* look good and as someone who dreams of being a serial redecorator, I love the little bits about home pieces.
Thank you so much for writing, Barbara.
Style isn’t always about clothing. Whether we are designing a room, choosing bedding, or designing a dining table, it’s all about the choices we make that communicate our personal style.
Loved your comment. And we will definitely have more home decor ideas.
I like Chico’s style. I like to see outfit combinations for inspiration.
Heather,
Yes…I also love to see how Chico’s puts outfits together. They give us their styling expertise!
Chicos has so many cute styles and fun prints! Those are my favorites cause I love being in color!
Leah,
I agree. Color is so important. As we age, we begin to lose it. I think Chico’s has a sixth sense. They just seem to know what we need!
I love how classy it all is.
Ditto, Claire.
Thanks for writing.
I love these outfits. I would like to see vintage and chic outfits. I would love this handbag & Shirt.
I like what you have. I love looks that you not plain and that are different.
Thanks for writing, Julie.
We appreciate it. Good luck!
I love all the colors …the styles are very pretty.
Yes, Tallulahjane. I don’t know how they do it, but Chico’s manages to give us so many different color and pattern choices every season. It’s amazing.
I love QStyle for its beautiful photos and wise advice!
What a lovely comment, Aaron. Thanks for writing.
I have been shopping at Chico’s for about ten years. I always find something I love. I have my eye on their new Chloe Poncho, gorgeous colors and perfect for the summer. I am new to your blog and just signed up to get your e-mails. :.) Thanks!
Terri,
Thanks for writing. I’ll have to check into the Chloe poncho!
I love QStyle because it show how you can look stylish at any age! The styles are chic and sophisticated!
Amen, Renee.
Chico’s shows us feel beautiful and confident at any age.
I like that QStyle is relevant to me. I like the fashion and style posts the best.
Thanks, Pam.
Fashion and style…will do!
I love q style for all the fashion ideas and a chico’s spree would be awesome. I rarely treat myself so this would be great.
Good luck, Melissa.

I love the look of Chicos so chic and classy I love that shop..
Yes, Julie.
I agree Chico’s Boutiques are organized and accessorized so well. It’s easy to see how outfits go together visually.
Yes, Julie. I think Chico’s must have women like us working in their corporate office. They just seem to know exactly what we love!
