Gift for women over 50: a silk scarf from Switzerland
Updated: Oct 11
By 50, a woman knows her style. A gift for her should fit it, last for years and say something about her. A silk scarf from beyondSilk shows a Swiss place she loves on 100 × 100 cm of silk.
Seven designs are available, from CHF 120. Delivery in Switzerland is free.
Why a silk scarf suits women over 50
No size: you don't need to know her dress size.
Any style: with jeans, a blazer or an evening dress.
Many ways to wear it: around the neck, in the hair, on a bag, draped over the shoulders or tied around the hips.
Personal: the place where she lives, grew up, spends her holidays or the destination she associates with fond memories.
Gifts for women over 30, over 40, over 50 and over 60
Over 30: a luxurious accessory that looks just as good with jeans, a T-shirt and trainers as it does with the first business suit.
Over 40: a scarf for work, tied at the neck with a blazer. For example the Zurich or Geneva scarf.
Over 50: the place that means something to her. The city of her youth, the lake of her summers, the mountains of her winters.
Over 60: the Switzerland scarf with all 41 peaks above 4'000 metres and iconic flowers, for the woman who knows the whole country.
