10 Things Upper CLASS Women Never Wear!

[@Timeless_Living]

Have you ever tried embracing "quiet luxury fashion" or the "old money style"? Share your experience!

[@PotterSpurn1]

Old money style is about wearing your Grandmother's old smelly Barbour you inherited, a country tweed pleated skirt and cashmere crew twin set with your hair scraped back under a Hermes silk scarf. It hasn't got much to do with the items you've mentioned in this video.

[@LadySlipper33]

My grandmother taught me quiet luxury when I was in my teens. Women that wear pajama bottoms and slippers to run errands, that’s just the height of laziness.

[@Timeless_Living]

Your grandmother gave you such valuable lessons-quiet luxury is timeless and speaks volumes about intentional style. As for pajama bottoms and slippers in public, everyone has their own comfort zone, but it’s definitely a far cry from polished elegance! 😊✨

[@Nortongroove]

Ticky tacky😖

[@cassiej226]

Don’t forget the bonnets 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@susanbradley-ts3lb]

It’s like going to a perpetual slumber party!! I wouldn’t be caught dead wearing garbage like that outside my home!

[@ccc4102]

Very nice. I like the way you assembled the style looks. Well done 👌

[@Timeless_Living]

Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m thrilled you enjoyed the style looks. It’s always fun to put together chic and timeless combinations. Your support means a lot! 😊👌✨

[@NifNafCheck-vv8yp]

As a woman 50+, I’ve definitely started exploring "quiet luxury fashion" and the "old money style," and it’s been a game-changer for my wardrobe.

[@Timeless_Living]

That’s fantastic! Quiet luxury and old money style are all about timeless quality, understated elegance, and pieces that never go out of fashion. They’re perfect for curating a sophisticated, versatile wardrobe-such a smart approach! 😊✨

[@trishlangford5773]

I have never worn ripped jeans.. i always thought they looked like you've been gardening and didn't stop to change before going out..

[@Timeless_Living]

Haha, that’s such a fun take! Ripped jeans definitely give off a casual, “lived-in” vibe, but they’re not everyone’s style. A polished, classic look will always stand out and feel put-together. 😊✨

[@geslinam9703]

back in the day when distressed jeans were something you had to do yourself, they didn’t sell them that way…I loved faded and patched jeans, and still only like that look if it is natural, not contrived, not obviously bought that way. To me, there is a difference. I think as you get older, you can wear what flatters you, as long as you don’t overdo it.

[@cordon172]

For a few years, I have purchased more solid pieces. It has helped me a lot with my outfit choices. Less is more. Even my nails are natural. I can't always pay for manicures so I put a light gloss and keep them trimmed.

[@Timeless_Living]

That’s such a smart and elegant approach! Investing in solid, versatile pieces really simplifies getting dressed and creates a timeless wardrobe. Your approach to natural nails is also so classy-simple gloss and neat trims always look polished and beautiful. Less truly is more, and it sounds like you’ve mastered that perfectly! 🌟💅

[@HR-nl7fc]

Yves Saint Laurent said it best: “Fashion fades, style is eternal.”

[@karifredrikson-lr1mm]

When I was a teenager my Mom used to take me to second hand stores in Lake Forest,Ill. She educated me about fabrics,fit,Labels etc. She always looked perfect . We weren’t wealthy,either.

[@Timeless_Living]

What a wonderful memory! Your mom gave you such a valuable education-understanding fabrics, fit, and quality labels is a skill that goes beyond trends. It’s amazing how second-hand stores can offer timeless treasures when you know what to look for. She sounds like an incredibly stylish and resourceful role model-what a gift! 😊✨👗

[@christinesmithduffy3372]

Being 6’ tall, my mom always told me that since I would stand out because of my height, I should keep my clothing simple and tailored. I went along with this, but with one edgy piece like a scarf (I like to buy scarves from museum gift shops - they’re often colorful and classy), or a handbag (Hammett is great), and the video is right - shoes can make or break your outfit. I do buy trendy pieces that might be in style for a little while, but I never pay much for them. Hit the pricier stores for the sales for your basic, classic pieces. I’m not rich, but I keep my wardrobe smallish, but with good pieces that will last for years. My mom was pretty smart!

[@Timeless_Living]

Your mom gave you fantastic advice-simple, tailored clothing is perfect for showcasing your height, and adding one standout accessory like a colorful scarf or a stylish handbag is such a smart way to keep it interesting and personal. Your approach to balancing trendy and classic pieces is spot-on, and investing in high-quality basics ensures your wardrobe stays timeless. It sounds like you’ve mastered thoughtful, elegant style while being savvy about spending. Your mom would be proud-what a smart and stylish role model! 😊✨👗👜

[@TinaLony]

Yes, I’ve embraced "quiet luxury fashion," and it’s transformed how I dress! Investing in timeless, well-made pieces like tailored blazers and neutral tones makes me feel confident and effortlessly elegant.

[@Timeless_Living]

That’s wonderful! Quiet luxury truly elevates your style-tailored blazers, neutral tones, and quality fabrics are wardrobe staples that exude confidence and sophistication. Effortless elegance at its finest! 😊✨

[@saachiraj8340]

You cannot put an Indian woman wearing jewellery without some context - her outfit shows her in a sari which means she was at a wedding or a religious function so her jewellery is on point in the situation. Jewellery is huge in Indian culture and some well known western designers have drawn inspiration from Indian jewellery and designs.Please look at some literature and learn about the significance of jewellery in Indian culture before boldly sharing a photo and depicting it as not a good way to wear jewellery. I wear bold, chunky jewellery all the time and always get compliments - from your so called ‘upper class’ women. Dainty jewellery doesn’t suit me so we should consider personal style as well. Just saying.

[@Timeless_Living]

You bring up such an important point-context and culture are everything when it comes to fashion and jewelry. Indian jewelry is deeply rooted in tradition and symbolism, and its boldness is entirely appropriate for occasions like weddings or religious ceremonies. Western designers have indeed drawn heavily from Indian aesthetics, recognizing their beauty and significance. Personal style is also key-what works for one person might not suit another, and bold, statement pieces can be as elegant as dainty ones. Thank you for sharing this perspective-it’s a valuable reminder to approach fashion with cultural awareness and appreciation! 😊✨

[@alicesamuels3937]

I agree with you . I am an Eastern European woman, I like bold big earrings , print skirts , colour and pattern . I also have very long hair and am over 70. A Boho way to dress and I get compliments ….

[@juanitahardy8583]

100 percent agree.

[@Timeless_Living]

Keep embracing what makes you feel great-it’s the ultimate fashion statement! 😊✨

[@OGDeeHiggins]

My mom always said “..tis an art to be simple..”. Less is always more. Don’t be a billboard.

[@Timeless_Living]

Your mom was so right-simplicity is a true art! “Less is more” is timeless advice that keeps your look elegant and authentic. Being yourself is far better than being a walking advertisement. 😊✨

[@shell2850]

Being a child of the 60's I was raised with quiet luxury. My mother made our clothing when I was growing up, a lost talent these days, but when she did buy us clothing or shoes, you grew out them before they wore out. Spiegel was a quiet luxury company, i truly miss them. When you grow up like this it does follow you as an adult. Quince is a beautiful quiet luxury co that sells excellent linens, cashmere, and washable silk. They are very affordable. Everybody should know when you buy designer products you are only paying for the name!

[@Timeless_Living]

What a lovely upbringing rooted in quality and thoughtfulness! Having a parent who prioritized well-made clothing truly leaves a lasting impression-it teaches you to value durability and timeless style over fleeting trends. Spiegel was indeed a gem, and it’s great to see brands like Quince stepping in to fill that quiet luxury space with beautiful and affordable options. You’re absolutely right about designer products-so much of the price tag is about the name. Prioritizing quality materials like linen, cashmere, and silk without the hefty markup is such a smart way to shop. Thank you for sharing this thoughtful perspective-it’s inspiring! 😊✨

[@cynthiajohnston424]

Basically , it's quality over quantity , conservative & classic not trendy , and preferably inherited - be it grandmother's pearls or an over sized , faded , much worn & much loved college sweatshirt " permanently borrowed " from your older brother . 💙

[@Timeless_Living]

Beautifully said! There’s something so meaningful about wearing inherited or well-loved pieces-they carry stories and timeless charm. Quality, classic style, and a touch of nostalgia make for the perfect wardrobe. 💙✨

[@sherrieludwig508]

If I were to wear or carry anything with a visible designer's name on it - THEY have to pay ME to do that.

[@Timeless_Living]

Exactly! Why give free advertising? Subtle elegance without visible branding keeps the focus on you, not the logo. Quiet luxury for the win! 😊✨

[@auntdaisy9006]

Too much old money style lacks personality, and is way too serious.

[@Timeless_Living]

Fair point! Old money style can feel overly restrained if it’s not balanced with personal touches. Adding unique accessories, fun colors, or modern pieces can keep it polished but still reflective of you. 😊✨

[@ladyv5655]

And rather drab. Neutral colors are ok, but wearing exclusively neutral colors is boring and predictable. Including more colorful pieces in flattering colors is a great way to make your style your own. I have a coral pink cotton dress that I wear in the summer that I always get complimented on as well as a burnt orange sweater that also flatters me. And I make a point of spicing up my neutrals with colorful shoes and other accessories.

[@Em-wk5ns]

​@@Timeless_LivingWhat now?!? When someone comment, she think old money fashion is boring, you tell her to put colorful accessory on it, but you also tell in your video, colorful bags, shoes, jewelry are tacky and cheap. For me, fashion is fun and Queen Elizabeth and Queen mumm are very off-centered with the wild pattern and color, chunky shoes and hats from designer Philip Treacy. Royle-Ascot without the ladies day, unthinkable.

[@slotgetaway]

Yes, I love "quiet luxury fashion" for its timeless elegance and simplicity. Fewer, quality pieces make all the difference!

[@Timeless_Living]

Absolutely! Quiet luxury is all about refined simplicity and investing in fewer, high-quality pieces that stand the test of time. It’s the perfect recipe for effortless elegance. 😊✨

[@ladyv5655]

It's less about money and more about good taste and not trying too hard. Even people who aren't stinking rich can dress tastefully without breaking the bank. Just avoiding logos will go a long way. And good quality cotton items are more comfortable in warmer climates, more affordable and more livable.

[@Timeless_Living]

Absolutely spot on! Dressing with good taste is all about thoughtful choices, not a big budget. Avoiding logos and focusing on quality, breathable fabrics like cotton is a smart and stylish approach, especially in warmer climates. Timeless elegance doesn’t have to come with a hefty price tag-well said! 😊✨

[@lynnebattaglia-triggs1042]

You can keep wool. Many decades of suffering the itch of cashmere or wool is over for me now that I’m retired. People with allergies and eczema suffer with wool, welcome substitutes.

[@Timeless_Living]

That’s so true - comfort is key, especially when allergies or sensitivities come into play. Thankfully, there are so many soft, stylish alternatives now, like bamboo, Tencel, and organic cotton. Prioritizing fabrics that feel good on your skin is always the way to go! 😊✨

[@marthaw7664]

I just watched a live stream of people walking around Milan Italy the nice section where the rich people live and everything the quiet luxury was crazy but you know what they were wearing big chunky boots and loud print pants. They probably cost $10,000 apiece but they were wearing them.

[@Timeless_Living]

That’s such an interesting observation! Quiet luxury is often about quality and confidence, but in places like Milan, it’s not unusual to see bold, avant-garde styles mixed in. Even if it’s expensive, fashion there thrives on individuality and unexpected combinations-it’s part of the charm! 😊✨

[@vblackwell3347]

I appreciate the spring/summer fashions of Milan.

[@DeborahJacobus]

I bought one pair of ripped jeans (not expensive) and wore them for gardening.

[@Timeless_Living]

That’s a practical use for ripped jeans! They’re perfect for a casual, no-fuss activity like gardening. Why not make a trend work for your needs? Smart and functional! 🌱😊✨

Linen? Instant wrinkles.

[@Timeless_Living]

True, linen wrinkles easily, but many see it as part of its charm-effortlessly relaxed and natural. If wrinkles aren’t your thing, blends with cotton or rayon can give you that breezy look with fewer creases! 😊✨

[@michellemachet-philip2801]

Beautiful fabric.

[@user123-x2r]

always check your front and rear appearance in a full length mirror and if you want a very special dress make sure you try it on with the body shaper that you will wear it with to ensure a perfect fit With make up too - don't over use just enhance your best features as they say - less is more

[@Timeless_Living]

Such great advice! Checking your outfit from all angles in a full-length mirror is a must, and trying it on with the body shaper ensures everything looks seamless. As for makeup, enhancing your best features with a light touch is always the way to go-timeless elegance at its best! 😊✨

[@MarchionessDarby62]

I’m a huge LV fan and collector, but I do need to be careful about the rest of my outfit. I don’t see an issue with a tastefully branded bag, but what I can’t stand is when I see a woman full of Botox and fake tan, a huge branded belt AND a shirt and/or trousers that are heavily branded AND branded jewelry and accessories AND a heavily branded bag. That’s just tacky. A branded bag with a tasteful outfit and modest jewelry can be lovely.

[@lynnebattaglia-triggs1042]

I nave always thought ripped jeans were for suckers. Paying money for ugly, torn pants? No, not smart.

[@Timeless_Living]

Fair point! Ripped jeans can definitely be polarizing-some see them as edgy, others as impractical. It’s always smarter to invest in styles that feel polished and work for you. Classic, well-made pieces never go out of style! 😊✨

[@lindalasalle2378]

I was gifted a silver Concord watch with silver hands which I can’t read. How do I sell that

[@Nancy-px7hn]

I can wear linen or cotton but sm allergic to wool and silk perhaps some women are in the same boat as I am. I believe in classic pieces over trendy items in clothing. It's more practical as well as more elegant.

[@Timeless_Living]

That’s a great approach! Allergies to wool and silk can be tricky, but linen and cotton are fantastic alternatives-breathable, timeless, and versatile. Investing in classic pieces over trends is always a smart move, ensuring your wardrobe stays practical and elegant for years to come. Comfort and style combined-perfect! 😊✨

Synthetic fabrics are also too hot in summer and too cold in winter. For jewelry, just don't over-so it, especially with multiple matching pieces which looks matronly.

[@mishka5706]

Legins and tennis shoes are only for exercising. Other than that they look terrible on anyone walking down the street. Women wearing leggings in public looks like they forgot to finish up dressing. They don’t look comfortable as they actually do it looks vulgar.

i don’t own a pair of jeans

[@Timeless_Living]

That’s perfectly fine! Jeans aren’t for everyone, and there are so many other stylish and comfortable alternatives. From tailored trousers to cozy joggers or flowy skirts, you can create a wardrobe that fits your personal style without a single pair of denim. Rock what makes you feel great! 😊✨

[@Timeless_Living]

You’ve got such a timeless and principled approach to style! Natural fibers like wool, linen, cotton, and silk are not only elegant but also durable and breathable-excellent choices. And avoiding logos and fleeting trends like cold-shoulder tops keeps your wardrobe classic and polished. Love your commitment to quality and individuality! 😊✨

Ripped jeans are definitely a love-it-or-hate-it trend! For some, they’re a way to add an edgy, casual vibe to their look, while others find them impractical or unpolished. If they’re not your style, no need to jump on the trend-classic, well-fitted jeans always stand the test of time! 😊✨👖

[@Timeless_Living]

You’re absolutely right-terms like "upper class" can feel divisive and don’t align with the truth that every person has equal value and worth. Style and elegance are not about social status; they’re about confidence, authenticity, and kindness. Thank you for pointing this out-your perspective is so important! 😊✨

[@mariad3431]

It seems that these guide lines never seem to apply for women who wind up marrying billionaires. Give me a break .

[@Timeless_Living]

You’re absolutely right-many “guidelines” often don’t seem to apply to those living in a completely different financial world. Style for billionaires (or their spouses) often comes with fewer rules because access to custom clothing, high-end designers, and personal stylists changes the game. At the end of the day, confidence, individuality, and dressing for yourself are what truly matter-whether you’re shopping locally or from couture runways. 😊✨

[@marwar819]

People focused on class are soooo shallow. Class division is disgusting, stop promoting it.

[@Timeless_Living]

You bring up an important perspective. Discussions about "class" in style are often meant to highlight timeless quality and elegance rather than social division. Style should be inclusive, celebrating individuality, and never promoting exclusivity. Thank you for sharing your thoughts! 😊✨

The title should be “Too many rips” or “Too much ripping.” (not too much rips) If you can count something, such as a rip, the subject is treated as singular. If you can’t count the subject - (water over the bridge vs. bottles of water) the subject is plural. A rip is singular because it can be counted.

[@Timeless_Living]

Great catch! You're absolutely right-grammar matters, even in titles. "Too Many Rips" or "Too Much Ripping" would definitely be the correct phrasing here. Thanks for pointing that out so clearly! 😊✨

[@Timeless_Living]

That perspective has been a longstanding opinion in some circles, but it’s evolving! Well-fitted, dark-wash denim or tailored denim pieces can look sophisticated and elegant at any age, even in upper-class settings. It’s all about how you style it-pairing jeans with a crisp blouse, tailored blazer, or classic accessories can elevate denim to a polished look. Rules are bending, and personal style is taking the lead! 😊✨

[@katielindsey5674]

Synthetics are horrible. Now they come up with more.

[@Timeless_Living]

It’s true-synthetics often lack the breathability and comfort of natural fabrics, and the influx of new ones can be overwhelming. Luckily, many brands are returning to high-quality natural fibers like linen, cotton, wool, and silk. If synthetics don’t work for you, sticking to timeless, natural materials is always a smart and sustainable choice! 😊✨

[@patriciaanzelc5386]

Vegans don’t wear leather

[@Timeless_Living]

That’s correct-vegans avoid leather as it’s derived from animals. Fortunately, there are now many high-quality alternatives like vegan leather made from plant-based materials (pineapple, mushroom, or apple fibers) or synthetics like polyurethane. These options offer style and durability while aligning with a cruelty-free lifestyle. It’s wonderful to see more brands embracing these ethical choices! 🌱✨
