Ugh! Don't click on a fashion video if you plan to "wear what you like".

Redic!! Plaid will never go out of style!

@@SD-nh5yr Several yrs ago, I watched a video and went out and got some shackets and I love them forever. Not every body type can wear them either.

@@anteem3055 The "buffalo" plaid has been out since the wild west era. I personally like the more subdued patterns.

[@rosaliegmaye8539]

Never giving up my buffalo plaid jacket. At this age I'm so over a fashion chase. I wear that I want. Love Karen

[@garmtpug]

Why do you even bother to watch a video like this? If you've already made up your mind to never change what you've worn forever, it sounds like you are just wasting your time.

[@mhtammi]

Yup. I wear mine on walks on the beach under my rain coat. It’s been around forever and isn’t “going out of style” any time soon.

I got my heavy cotton plaids in subdued colors @ Tractor supply. I don't give a hoot what's in style/trendy since I dress conservative neutral classics. I watch videos for entertainment or get ideas what to buy later. Laura Ann retired 21 yrs.

Unfortunately, pointed shoes are a horror for older women with various foot problems. Not age friendly at all. The whole point is not worrying about trends at all but optimizing first for comfort/health and then for aesthetics.

I'm always interested in keeping up with what's current without having to dramatically alter my closet, so these videos offer great inspiration! One thing I just can't part with is a deep pink v-neck sweater, even if it's not the current thing! I love pink! Maybe by pairing it with some current jeans or a current skirt, I can get around this! I admit, I won't miss shackets!!

Best to wear colors that look best with our skin tone.

[@chrisdemnianyk4357]

This is one of your best videos yet. Not so much for the clothing tips, which are incredible, but for the advice. My mom always told me to make sure I was "put together" and it is true that when you "dress up" for an event, or even to go out running errands, you DO feel uplifted and special. In a sea of sweatpants, pajamas as outerwear, and ugly UGGS, it is nice to see when someone takes the time to make an "outfit" and dress up a bit. You are such an inspiration and your advice and choices of clothes for the over 50 group (I'm 59), is valuable information that I wish more over 50s would pay attention to. Thanks Heather!

[@lovingourage]

Thanks so much for your kind words. i always say this is my own opinion. You make many points I agree with about sloppy clothes.

Thanks, I’m 68 live in NZ so it’s real hot right now. I’m retired so I wear exercise active wear to walk my dog on the beach everyday. To go out I don’t need many clothes to dress up. I still get my hair dyed ash blonde. Where I live is fairly casual, thankfully. I enjoyed your video.

[@rapunzelz5520]

Its all about proportion and line. I think that a plaid jacket could be cool if it was tailored to nip in at the waist or have an asymetrical look. Better a smaller plaid than large. My mom used to do alterations for me and I miss her everytime i could use a seamstress.

Indeed smaller plaid in subdued more neutral colors to match more outfits in cooler weather.

[@marissaclaridge7627]

The first look is apples to oranges. I would wear the plaid walking my dog or taking a hike. I would never wear the second doing that Comfort is king. I think both looks are fine. .

[@NeighborofKT]

Thank goodness the front tuck is going away!

[@kathy6222]

It never looked good on anyone.

[@GrandmaMouse1960]

What is that about anyway? I go to my grandkids sporting events and all the mommies and even some grandmas, have their sweaters and shirts just tucked in the front. I find it ridiculous looking but then again, I haven’t been about the latest trends for a couple of decades now. I am 64 and love hoodies. I wear them with jeans and sweats. My daughter in law says she wants to inherit them one day. 😂.

@@GrandmaMouse1960 Agree, sweaters tucked are best untucked.

Great tips, I especially like the first two. I just can't get behind on Mary Jane (strap) shoes on anyone. The strap cuts off the foot in a way that takes away from the silhouette, IMO, and makes another area rubbing the foot in a way that might not feel great by the end of the day.

[@BlueMountain2017]

Thank you for your weekly tips. I am not real big on fashion but I appreciate your taste. I don't have the opportunity to go out much so I am more casual. But it's nice that you steer us away from looking too frumpy. I never cared for the plaid shirt look though I do have one that is very subtle which I like. The colors are pastel. I never wear blue jean jackets outside as actually jackets. I sometimes just wear them indoors as kind of a blazer to keep warm. I never used to have any but found one I really like and will keep it. They can be useful. I'm wearing it right now because I am cold. I can't seem to keep warm in the winter, especially as I get older. By the way, I think you look good in pink though maybe that's not the in color this winter.

[@lovingourage]

Thanks for sharing

[@CandiceBradleyPhD]

Seattleites also wear flannel, but never cardigans. Think about what happens if it gets wet from rain. Style can be regional.

In the S.E. near the gulf coast, winters are short but w/ cold snaps lasting several days. That's when the heavier flannel shirts are worn as a lighter jacket. or denim shackets or jackets. I am not a cartigan person since I handle cats.

[@barbarajordan3145]

Be comfortable, functioning, neat, and clean. Buy mix and match for everything. Spend a little more when quality is needed, like work clothes. Spend less money on hanging around the house and in the yard. Rotate by season. Give away generously, too! Don't wear ragged or stained clothes except for at the dirtiest work you do. This worked for my mother and her sisters and me (73 years old). My daughter is grown and does as she pleases!

[@lovingourage]

Thanks for the great tips!

[@Katiekatie948]

Simple style is best. Traditional clothing. All you need is good quality clothing that lasts. No wild prints, no advertisements print on clothing. Just simple timeless style. That is all you need from one year to the next. Avoid trends. Avoid the seasonal “go to”. It’s all a scam to get you to keep buying and fill the landfills.

People out of school or college need to ditch the logos on shirts. Exceptions might be a suble logo on a jacket like Auburn Tigers or Atlanta Braves, etc. I see older men or women wearing logos suited for school kids.

[@andreamigliore6607]

My height is 5 feet and I find plenty of useful ideas from Heather’s styling tips. I prefer petite sizes, especially for slacks, dresses, and skirts. Even without petites, the cardigans, blazers, and tops are especially good choices for us smaller women. If you’re concerned that a belt may draw attention to your midsection, don’t wear one. Instead try pullover that extends just a little past your waist. Have fun with this.

Where did tight leggings with thongs or no underwear underneath become popular?

Alright, the frech tuck is on it's way out. Thats okay. But please ppl, just admit that changing fashion is NOT about what flatters one more. It is about trends creating money (and the anti-french-tuck-cardi hits on the wrong length and makes you look bigger)

Too late. I bought 4 beautiful and warm plaid flannel shirts from Costco for $9.99 each. They are very attractive. I am in my 60s and these tops are very feminine with a modest, "V" neckline (unlike mens flannels that button to the throat). And they don't show any cleavage like the top you are wearing (not a good look for a gal your age, by the way). What's trending is what I like. To each lady, her own.

I saw the "v" necklines also @ Tractor Supply in subtle shades.

[@kathy6222]

Good for you! I bought some really nice soft long-sleeved jewel neck line solid tops from them about 3 years ago; nice and warm, too. You never know what you'll find there.

[@marshaduprey7220]

I love your videos but do not recommend the Comfelie bras I saw on a recent one. They fit perfectly and I wanted to keep them. However, they smelled horrible after I washed them before my first use. I contacted the company who sent directions to soak in white vinegar and air out for several days. I did but the strong order is still there. Now the company wants me to ship them to their lab in China and they will send me 3 new ones. At this point, I don’t want to waste my money shipping them to China and I don’t trust that the new ones they offered will smell any better. They aren’t wearable or fit for donation to a thrift store.

[@lovingourage]

I am sorry to hear about your experience with that brand, but it must have been youtube ad or maybe another channel as I don't remember ever owning one of those brands. I do wear my products and the Warners bras are all I've ever mentioned.

[@pamelab1175]

My husband and I went out to eat tonight. And I saw a woman with her longer sweater tucked in on the side of her jeans. I might try that sometime. Because my belly has grown lately. I have some long two shoe horns somewhere in my closet. I need to find them. I did clean my closet it out. But I have shoe racks and think the shoes horns maybe somewhere on them. I usually have two or all three dogs around when I’m trying to put my shoes on. So I’m not sure the shoe horn would help. I wore a necklace tonight that is three strands. I forgot to see where it was from. I’m sure I bought it on eBay. I always wear my Apple Watch. And it’s so clunky. I have a lot of watches that would look much better. But I keep wearing the Apple Watch. I’m going to buy a new band and cover for it. And if it still looks clunky I’m not going to wear it.

[@mkflanagan1]

You can change the band on your Apple Watch and get some cute looks.

[@superstarcat7654]

I love the flannel jacket. I don’t know exactly what you’re saying, your accent slurs words quite a lot. Maybe get a stroke check up? It happens as we get older. The toilet tuck of shirts is not a good look. Having your girls hanging out is also a bad look with the turkey neck well exposed. A nice turtleneck is great in this cold winter weather. And we can all take a lesson from Nancy Pelosi and stay out of high heels and use pretty flats up to a one inch heel that wide. Broken hips gives you an 80% chance of dying within a year.
