5 types of jeans every woman needs | style over 50

[@Trwanddon]

For curvy figures, try Gloria Vanderbilt jeans. She's the only brand I can find that doesn't gape at the waist. I hate when the hips fit, but the waist is huge!

[@seventhchild7270]

Beth....just wanted to also mention that those on a fixed income or have limited income especially due to this covid virus.....please remember that the Goodwill, thift stores, cosignment shops have great jeans, sweathers, boots , handbags, etc.... And don't forget about sales, sales, sales!.....This allows us women to still feel great and stylish.......and not lose ourselves.....keeping our routine....especially during this PANDEMIC....

I wash my jeans and air dry them until they are almost dry. Then I throw them in the dryer for 10 to15 minutes to remove any wrinkles .This works great without shrinking my jeans.

Thanks for the very informative video. Now I understand what those catalog descriptions are talking about (boyfriend, skinny, bootcut). The rise & inseam explanations were also helpful.

Love ,Love Jeans , they have been part of my wardrobe ever since I was 13or 14 years old ! Back when a pair of Levi’s only cost $ 5.00 a pair ! There weren’t any woman’s jeans ( Levi’s) in the 50s so we bought our jeans in the men’s clothing Department or “borrowed “ dads or brothers jeans 👖! Dresses were more the dress code for women and girls !

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

I mostly stopped using my tumble dryer a few years ago, I just hang everything, with much better results, increases longevity, a lot of energy savings and less overheating if my house. Exceptions: sheets, towels and socks and garments that I want to shrink, if I can’t hang them outdoors [this summer and fall it has just been too smoky here (San Francisco Bay Area)]. I am lucky because I have a laundry “room” (a walled-off section of the garage by the washer, dryer and utility sink), and I put in lots of racks, and a clothesline, to hang clothes. I also use a fan, which cuts the drying time to less than half, brings in fresh air and keeps the items moving, reducing wrinkling.

[@donnaschindlbeck7457]

Enjoyed the video Beth. For myself I would add a pair of pull on jeans (Talbots has my favorites) and a pair of high waisted jeans. Being 5’2” I forgo the wide leg jeans, I feel overwhelmed in them. I also turn mine inside out when laundering and never throw them in the dryer!

[@deannagalindo3439]

Morning Beth. Thank you for sharing all your fashion expertise! Is there any way you could add some "do not's" or "how to's" to your videos? For instance: If your large chested... If your thicker around the middle.... I guess mostly a word or two about proper fit. I am quite blessed up top and would love to incorporate blazers into my wardrobe but am not sure what the fit should look like. Anything that fits around my chest looks like a tent everywhere else. Does this mean blazers are not good for my body type? I believe all styles don't work for all body types and would love a little direction.

[@BethDjalali]

thanks for the suggestion.

[@gloglos100]

I sew, the art of a good blazer for us with a bust, is proper fitting, if it fits around the armhole and is darted or has a line from the shoulder down it should fit neatly over but without extra fabric. My bust on my fine frame can look like a Batchelor from Prague because of 5he extra fabric round chest and armhole

Great video, I love the new wider leg and baggier styles, but I realize many other women will never even try them. It’s too bad, I think it’s mostly a matter of getting the eye used to them, rather than that they are inherently unflattering. Many of us die-hard skinnies gals refused to try them when they were new, too. I like how you, Beth, never get stuck in past styles, you keep your look classic and classy, but modern and relevant, too. One little suggestion about your measuring guide image, feet should be together for the most accurate measurements.💕

Thx for the video. My favorites had been NYDJ, they were fitting like made by a tailor. But now they're made in Asia, not "proudly made in the US" anymore. They have got another shape, do not fit anymore. I wear some German made now. Greetings from northern Germany.

Thanks for the info!

[@annfridinger1307]

I agree on the NYDJ problem.. having been wearing for years when made in USA. I am long waisted and short legged and was thrilled with the fit. Don’t know what happened. Low rise, bad cuts, sizing all over the place. Designers are so desperate to make constant changes to their lines to keep current, but it leaves their customer base frustrated and confused...and onto the next brand. Chico’s used to also work for me, same problem.

[@nordlys3432]

@@annfridinger1307 just as you I'm long waisted and short legged. NYDJ were perfect, as long as they were made in the USA. Now made in Asia...I experienced that with other Lavels, too, they are made to fit another figure: broader hips and smaller waist. They get them made cheeper in Asia and sell them to the "old" prices all over the workd. To me it's greed.

Great video & topic, although you didn’t mention waist (rise) hight too much, it seems everyones obsessed with high waisted, but as a petite person they hit me in the ribs. So I tend to go for at belly button waist (which fits me at my waist) & below as long as they aren’t very low. This lower rise gives the wide leg pants a different look if they are lower as well as the boyfriend. ❤️🙏🏽

I stay away from skinny jeans and do a bootcut instead. Up until my late 40's I had a 34" waist but now have 36" waist, skinny jeans emphasize the hips and make them look wider so I avoid them. I also modify some of my boot cut to make them more of a skinny jean at the bottom but not as skinny as real skinny jeans. Those I wear with flats and the unmodified with heels. I always wear dark or black jeans too. I incorporate new trends, colors into my outfits but mostly thru accessories, blouse, & colors.
