[@NadaManley]

I finally feel like my personal style matches the trend in fall 2024 🤣. Dark denim, wide leg trousers. I wish I could follow your advice re: shoes. I have severe arthritis; the only comfortable shoes I can wear are the opposite of pretty. But comfort is a must. 😔

[@anyat686]

But wide leg trousers with a chunky boot is totally in style. I’m sure you rock it !! 😂

[@rosej9686]

"Stepped into a teepee and wore it" LOL 😂 I bought a denim skirt that hits me just below the knee, almost two years ago, and it's been a workhorse in my wardrobe. I'm glad it isn't considered out of style. Thanks for another very helpful video! ❤

[@r.phillips6395]

Oh man, joggers are part of my work from home uniform, along with the long frumpy cardigan... Nada you're killing me 😂

[@NatashaCreatesThings]

The long cardi is one of my staples oyyyy

[@NadaManley]

@@r.phillips6395 as dramatic as I am in these videos I don’t think we need to get rid of these things right away. I think it’s a transition and I’m going to still be wearing my joggers casually.

[@lovelysybarite3009]

The day will never come that I relinquish my Varley joggers.

[@toniweston4330]

I have real Chanel black flats that go with everything! Invest in the best you can afford. I want to share that my well educated younger sister was trying to establish herself in the high end commercial real estate market as a brooker in Washington D.C. phew! Anyway the 1990's were tough and she was failing... Until big sister mentioned to Her husband that she needed to invest in herself first. He went out bought her an expensive breif case, shoes, bag etc. I helped! It turned everything around for her! That one simple change made people accept that she knew how to invest in quality that last. Therefore they started trusting her to invest their money with confidence!

[@foxycinquantuno3361]

You're not wrong! Though I do keep my cozy floppy cardigans for winter around-the-house wear.

[@Off_the_clock_astrophysicist]

I love the midi (really, bellow the knee) denim skirt. They are so versatile! That's a trend that started a couple summers ago, but when I saw it I thought it would stick. I am glad it did, because I spent time making one myself from an old pair of jeans that I stole from my husband (he had not worn them in at least 20 years - yes, we are pack rats).

[@dinapawlow1622]

Agree with EVERYTHING. Thanks

[@NadaManley]

Thank you so much Dina!! I appreciate the comment!

[@valeriecoopet9897]

I put my waterfall cardigans away or donated them. I have kept out two with fringe. They seem to suit my boho style nicely. I agree about the skirts! I always wonder what they are hiding under there.

[@NadaManley]

LOL I love that! Yes! I think your fringe ones sound lovely. Thanks for the comment!

[@Wandering.Homebody]

So what do you put on in the dinter, around the house? A dressing gown, around the clock?

[@TraceyJennings-c2x]

Me, watching this as I am wearing joggers, a tee and a Blazer. I always find something on these lists that I disagree with. I wear lots of prints so plain flats are good as long as they are pointed toes.

[@NadaManley]

@@TraceyJennings-c2x I’m still wearing some of my joggers too. The point here is that they are not being dressed up like they were. Also not vetoing all simple flats just the plain ones lol. I do these less based on what appeared on the runway which is an indicator of the direction that fashion is headed in. But of course we’re all going to reflect these in our wardrobes in different ways.

[@pamelapatterson6889]

The lip color you’re wearing today (10/15/24) is the most complimentary I’ve seen you wear so far. Lovely.😁

[@graceinhawaii]

Thank you nada! Great video! I really enjoy hearing what you have to say. Have a great day! About outdated clothes…it is a new journey for me about that. I have been downsizing my clothes for several years. And I just had a color analysis done too. So my closet is quite small!! Hahaha Most of the clothes I have given to friends or thrift stores. But I have a budget where I can buy whatever new pieces I need/want. I suppose age can be a good thing for that reason. 😃 I live in Hawaii where dress is very casual! And there is not much of choice when shopping. I am exploring Nordstrom Rack and loving it. Thank you again for all your amazing videos!

[@BB-cn6ow]

I want to wear ballet flats, but I can’t find a pair that fits right. I really like the loafers you’ve been showing…might be my alternative! 😊

[@Wandering.Homebody]

I love my pair of extremely plain, velveteen leather barefoot ballet flats. So comfy, and they jusg go with everything. I m on a trip around the world for one year,and they are the only pair of shoes i have with me. They are perfect.

[@olgayorish234]

I have two missoni waterfall cardigans. Love them

[@NadaManley]

@@olgayorish234 if they are Missoni you should keep them or archive them for sure.

[@cathlynballard8409]

I enjoy your videos and very much appreciate your fashion sense and knowledge. You always inform and help me be more considerate of what I’m wearing and purchasing. However, it is difficult to see the items and details of light colored and white garments and outfits presented on the often white and bright-white backgrounds.

[@annawilliams8528]

I love watching your show so much nada

[@NadaManley]

Thank you SO much! This means a lot to me!

[@shannonalwaise8398]

I donated distressed denim and frumpy cardigans. Not sure if I have any of those blouses with tie sleeves.

[@pianodiva30]

So would you say that we should purge our joggers that are sweatpants? Or just the "dressier" ones? I've seen that tapered pants have replaced the dressier ones so totally on board with that. But I have A LOT of the sweatpant joggers thinking that those were still okay! LOL

[@NadaManley]

Yes I think those can stay! For leisure or casual wear. They're just not a dressy style anymore :). THanks so much for the comment!

[@leghornlife]

I do love my tie front blouses. 😂

[@thelmayoung1648]

Hey, I will not stop the sparkles! The sparkles make me happy! I have no problem embracing my maturity!! I am not trying to be like anyone under my age! I love your videos, and thank you for your advice! 😊😊😊

[@NadaManley]

Thank you so much for the comment!! :) Enjoy your sparkles.

[@Slivings911]

I like my sparkly sandals too. They make me happy. 🙂

[@babalu-oc6iu]

12:18 these are flattering on me . They balance an apple shaped body . I also toss a straight long tunic over it and makesxme look longer and taller. I get compliments. Not giving them up.

[@1pamby1]

LOL - "But wait! There's more!" So on the nose. :)

[@NadaManley]

Thank you so much! LOL I so appreciate the comment!

[@margreetdegraaf4078]

I don’t own or like a waterfall cardigan but I was wondering if the ‘swadling’ trend can save them if you throw one side over your shoulder and pin it with a broche?

[@NadaManley]

That's a great idea! Thanks for the comment!

[@Wandering.Homebody]

Isnt the great thing about being middle aged or old that you can just wear whatever you like, and arent bound AT ALL by whats "in style"?

Nada, what about my Paris t shirts that have the sparkling Eiffel Tower ?

[@NadaManley]

Sadly I think those should be cute at home or walking the dog clothes :)

[@maryvigstolarczyk8690]

@@NadaManley Haha, okay thanks for saving me, yet again :-))

[@susanking9733]

i do miss those jewel sandals of the old days,lol

[@Off_the_clock_astrophysicist]

I have to disagree on the plain black flats, and the fact that every piece of the outfit must scream you. Not every piece of your outfit should scream. Just like in theater, where a scene is created when one or two actors talk and move while the others stay absolutely still and fade into the background, an outfit functions best that way. I own a couple "statement" pairs of shoes that I wear with plainer outfits. This is how we did it growing up in France. I think the reason you noted that people in "Europe" (that's broad too) wore shoes that drew attention is that you only noticed shoes that drew attention. That's what they are designed to do. Most of my shoes are by design completely ignorable. They are ignorable because they are plain, so they don't clash. Also, they are in good shape and not ugly. Ugly shoes draw attention in a negative way. One advantage of this method is that I don't need to own a lot of shoes or replace them every season. Good shoes are expensive.

Question- ( I can picture you covering your eyes with both hands, and a half smile on your lips, but whether you are trying not to laugh, or rolling your eyes at it…??lol),…That last cardigan with the animal type print was a good look, yes?; and the heavyweight tees like shirts are good, yes?- So I have a favorite top (old favorite!; to me) with both those elements, but also has a (the dreaded ) animal spotted appliqué, and bold shoulders. It looks amazing with my black (pencil shaped) midi skirt (great length), and black leather dressy slides/mules. It also would be great with my black heeled knee boots. Think BR style… but not….- Your opinion on this please? Can this work?

[@irenekanel.ac.7721]

Distressed denim should never be in style. Why pay money for ripped up clothes?

[@MsJuliadanny]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@marycarnahan5716]

Done minimally, it has some charm. The higher the fashion level, or the more distressed, the more it's just slumming.

[@kb1625]

I agree! I can look tacky and distress my own jeans for free. They especially look ridiculous on anyone over 35. Not a fan!

[@heartflyte4697]

What about graphic tees? Like band tees? No more joggers 😢?

[@NadaManley]

Band tees never go out of style IMHO

lol baggy cardigans and chunky shoes aren’t going anywhere.

[@NadaManley]

lol they already have

[@MsJuliadanny]

Nothing screams “old lady” like baggy tops, sparkles, tunics and (forgive me) animal prints. I know you promoted animal prints but honestly, do you ever see anybody under 40 wearing them? I totally agree about distressed jeans, my pet hate, even if loved by the young … and sloppy 😄😄😄

[@NadaManley]

@@MsJuliadanny thanks for the comment! We can agree to disagree about the animal print lol. Even college kids are wearing them now :)

[@countryliving60]

I dislike all animal prints.

[@Off_the_clock_astrophysicist]

Unpopular opinion: chunky shoes should never have seen the light of day.
