I cannot wear crew necks ever. I’m 70 now and finally get it! I just splurged on a couple of air essentials type sweatshirts that are v neck. I love them ! Thanks for the video. Also, thanks for bringing up the word “trend” . I go the opposite way and look at what people my age are wearing and what looks best for me.

I definitely agree with structure. I like stiff, thicker fabrics and/or tailored clothes. Outfits that could be described as 'sharp'. I can't do flowy or drapey. It just hangs on me, doesn't give me any shape and shows all my 'lumps and bumps'.

Thank you for this, it is very useful. I think the advice about structure is important. Badly-fitting clothes don’t look good on anyone, but particularly on older people; it can look like they just don’t care about their appearance any more. Some people actually say they are “past all that,” which I really hate to hear. (No, it is not comfy, it is baggy!) I am in my 60s, but I don’t think is is just about age, more about attitude. I hope I never get to that stage. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry at the matching sets with tacky, plastic necklaces. Whoever thought that was a good idea? I have a few pieces of good gold jewellery, notjing blingy or showy, that I can wear with most things. I also have a few pieces of costume jewellery with big enough stones (non-precious) to make them statement pieces, but there is not a drop of plastic in sight. On the othr hand, some of the local charity shops have lots of plastic jewellery - I can only suppose someone bought the sets with the shower-curtain patterns and donated the “jewellery” for children to buy for dressing up!

Another fab video! These days if I find an errant crew neck tee in my stash (I've got a fair few tee's) I cut the neck out and wash the tee this makes the material curl onto itself so no sewing either! This makes the neckline lower by about 4-5 inches it really does work 🤗

I know you mean well but food for thought: Every time we are told to try to look younger, the message is that it's bad to be old. Depressing. Why does everything have to be anti-aging? I don't like looking old either but is that because I'm a product of modern western society and I've been brainwashed?
@Myover50fashionlife2 ай бұрын
For my part I want the brands to take more notice of us and cater for us properly. I don’t want to dress how they want me to. If that makes sense. I feel they dress me like my grandmother . I want to look my age which is contemporary.
@lindabolique722 ай бұрын
@@Myover50fashionlife I wear what I like. I love your channel. I just wish we could reverse the fear of aging and start seeing things like "how to look older" as if aging were something we could be proud of. I know this will never happen though because humans are wired to be attracted to youth and beauty.

@bmindful1888 this is about looking our age not the older version certain shops want us to look. We are vibrant relevant and youthful and deserve to be treated as such. Let’s look 69 if we’re 69 and you probably are but others need confidence to be a contemporary 69.

@@Myover50fashionlife I agree that it's about feeling great about yourself at any age. The goal is not to look "younger". We all know that we can't really fool anyone and why should we care. Growing older truly is a privilege and there is nothing wrong with wanting to look great at any age and in any physical condition we find ourselves in. Looking stylish can make us feel vibrant and more alive and give us more confidence and energy and there is nothing negative about that! Let's look great for ourselves and put our beautiful at any age message out there into the world.😃

Find your neutral and it could be navy or use a non neutral as your base like pink. Beige can be difficult but it it may be you need a cool light brown like me. I can’t wear many beiges either. I look yellow and sallow.
