Hi Shea! This is by far, one of your smartest videos EVER! Don't take that the wrong way though, cause I LOVE your content! What I mean is, that this particular video, I mean every single point & every single category you made/discussed, hit the nail on the head, I mean every single one! Wow and unfortunately because I'm 20 lbs overweight, some of these are styles I have to be careful with, including sandals/shoes, but I know my limitations and if I woke up 20 lbs lighter tomorrow, then yea, every single point you made is total perfection, so in essence, it's all PERFECTION! 😘😘😘

[@megmcdonald]

Completely meant to be helpful: I think you’re biased when it comes to the blushes and mauves. You’re right that these colours would drain and age YOU. I’d guess, based on when we see you without make up, that you are an autumn season, in seasonal colour analysis. You have higher contrast with warm, dark features. That means you can handle darker, richer, more saturated colours (and pull off some brights too). However, people like me, who are Summers, look great in the blushes and the mauves because we are lighter with lower contrast (I have cool medium pale skin, grey blue/green eyes, medium brown hair with fair eyebrows). The rich browns or vibrant greens you wear completely overwhelm people like me. I bet you’d love the whole concept of Seasonal Colour Analysis, and would probably love being analyzed and talking dressing for your season (and you could do many videos on the topic). I did a quick search and it doesn’t look like you’ve done this topic yet. Highly recommended!

You don't have to follow her style to the letter. Take facets of it and add it to your personal style. She is giving ideas, not proclamations. LOL Her usage or brighter colors, structured clothing, current pant hemlines and patterns, simplicity in handbags etc are all things anyone can draw from. Being short - 5' - the baggy and super oversized tops are a no for me as well as most patterns. I don't wear sleeveless but look for clothing in similar styles that have some upper arm coverage. No KZbinr is going to tick all my boxes, but that doesn't mean I dismiss their entire channel as unusable. These are ideas... The trick for not looking older than you are is not buying clothing that is advertised for older women!

The "cargo" look with multiple pockets on pants and skirts sometimes looks comical, not stylish or expensive or "classy"! I do have a different perspective on oversized - I worked very hard to lose weight and now to keep it off. My former self was 16/18 US and I am now size 8/10 US.

The problem with older women wearing too short shorts is showing flabby skin and cellulite on most women. I’d think the, jorts are better for covering up those problem areas on older (60+) women.

[@les0101s]

Speaking of being old.....I have a warning. I think flare legs look great, but I almost fell down the stairs wearing a pair. I kind of turned to get on my stairway and started down and one foot got caught in the floppy flare of the other leg. Luckily, I did catch myself before falling too far, but it was a wake up call for me. Now that I'm older, I don't have the same balance and I probably have slower response times.

[@nabenfante]

Shea, I love your style but most of the clothes you recommend end up looking aweful on me. Could you help us plus size woman find some stylish fall clothes on Amazon for everyday and office. Need help! Everything else from home to jewelry I end up buying like 70% of things you recommend. 😊 Thank you!!!!!

Color palettes are so individual. It took me a long time to understand what my best colors actually are and what suits me. For instance, the peach trend from this past spring was a big no in spite of how popular it was. I do like the shorter tops, though. My favorite summer tops are actually your Amazon recommendations. I wear them to work and no one would ever know they aren't higher end!

[@poodlegirl55]

This was funny. I can't imagine being so self absorbed. Don't wear a big top it will make you look old, wear a big sweatshirt it won't. Hello, people who are actually old don't give a flying F$$k. That is the benefit to being old.

I think my skin tone and hair color look good in blush and mauve, and I’m always mistaken for being way younger than I am.

Love you and your videos, but this was a tough one. If I had a body like you, then I agree with everything you said. However, people need to know their limitations. For example, sadly I have awful legs so short shorts are not an option. Also, many of your recommendations seemed to be intended for the great bodies and clearly those women who are YOUNG since 30ish is no way “older”. Please know that your videos are viewed and followed by a broad range of people.

[@PatriciaCook-p1j]

Yes!! I totally agree. One day she will be “over 30” and gone through menopause and will look back at her videos realizing that she really could’ve had a much larger audience if she weren’t so focused on the trendy styles. Or maybe she’ll stay this slim forever 🤷‍♀️ but I do wish she’d meet all of her audience where they’re at.

It’s interesting as I look at this now that I’m in my 50s and I’ve always really been into fashion. A lot of the rules aren’t rules of course, but the things that are popular now started off about three or four years ago with teenagers and have now gone mainstream. The shoes, the denim, the baggy clothes, all of them were reflected in teen fashion about four years ago and now are what make you appear useful even if it’s not flattering

I would be lost without an organized style purse. I have a place for keys and place for my phone a place for my wallet. nothing worse than rummaging thru my pursing looking for something. So this is the Senior review.

[@lynnogden2728]

so glad to see your recommendation for EBY underwear and bras. I am absolutely in love with this brand. I started with the underwear initially and it has been the only brand I have that doesn’t show under my exercise leggings. They stay perfectly in place.They are so comfortable and after many washings, they still look brand new. I now own two of the relief bras, and one of the Seamless bralettes. I am way older than most of your followers probably are and I am a post bilateral mastectomy patient. These bras create such a seamless look under any T-shirt no matter how close fitting I saw that one complaint was that the pad inserts weren’t sewn down however I have found that I don’t need those at all, and happily remove them. I Encourage others to give EBY a try. I don’t think you will regret it.

I'm rather surprised at the number of women who come to channels like this, that specifically states what the topic is, and become so defensive about the topic! All you seem to read in the comments is "I'll wear what I like." or "I'm old and I don't care what I look like." or "Who cares what's in style now?" or "I just want to wear what's comfortable!" Why bother coming to a channel that says "12 Fashion Items that Make You Look Way Older" if you are just going to complain about the information? Do they think it will just be a reaffirmation of their questionable style choices? I don't know. I see this on all sorts of "older women" channels and wonder if these disgruntled women just want to troll, don't want to try to look their best, or are upset because they realize they should do some changing . It's a mystery to me, but I can't imagine wasting my time watching a video and then whining because I watched it! LOL! I found Shea's information interesting and fun and although some isn't for my body type, I did find certain suggestions she gave to be very useful.
