I look in my closets to see what I have and can put together. Usually works, my style is classic. Do check your own closet to see what you can put together. J. Crew pre owned is an idea if you do not have what you want. Sometimes they carry my small petite size, and is a good resource for good clothing for people on a fixed income.

I was a teen in the 60s and remember the grace of Jackie Kennedy, Audrey Hepburn and Marlo Thomas in That Girl. Years later I gravitated to the style of Julia Sugarbaker on Designing Women. Now in my 70s I still care about fashion but I find myself drawn to those two decades, I simply update them with a more current twist. One thing I just can't resist is a beautiful silk flower corsage on the lapel of a well tailored jacket. :)

Wonderful tips!! I love the concept of embracing our age and being modern, not trying to be someone or something we aren’t. I am enjoying the resurgence of wide and barrel leg pants. Skinny jeans emphasize my wide shoulders and flat backside. The looser fit pants balance my proportions. I’ve gotten many more compliments on my outfits since I’ve been wearing those cuts.

Thank you so much, Kay, for all your thoughts encouraging us to stop trying to look younger. I agree heartily. I see so many 'older' women today trying far too hard to look like young. Sadly most of them end up looking a little foolish. Your blouse in the video from EM&ME is absolutely beautiful and so feminine!!! Even though the cost of that one item is probably close to the cost of my clothing budget for a whole year, that's okay. My biggest goal is to be feminine and modest and I'm very much at peace and content with where I am. I can still use that design to help me find something similar in my own budget. I think it's important to remember that all of us are a different places financially. While I might be a mom of 10 married to a mailman, someone else might be an empty nester married to a triple figure executive. In either case, I hope we can all love and be respectful to each other.

Happy Saturday, Kay. I really like the barrel pants on you. I am 67 and I purchased a pair of white barrel jeans (mine are an ankle length) from the GAP two years ago and they are flattering on my petite figure. It is nice that you are presenting a variety of brands from "accessible prices" to more budget friendly options. I always like to look at the more expensive brands like Ralph Lauren and I try to find similar items from Talbot's or other more reasonably priced retailers who often have amazing sales. However, I do try to stick with sustainable fabrics such as cotton, linen, and wool with maybe the slightest amount of polyester or rayon. Thanks for your styling inspiration. You be you!

I totally agree that ladies of a certain age should keep up-to-date with trends and incorporate some of them into their styles. But I cannot get past the price point of the clothing shown in today’s video. Exactly how many women can afford to pay those prices? Very few I would think. it would honestly be much more helpful if examples were given of clothing which is affordable.

I have been thrilled that cargo / painter style pants are “on trend” again. The way they are cut is more flattering to my body, even tho it is post-menopausal this time around.

I prefer I neat tailored straight-leg jeans or pants. I wear only dark colours like navy, black and dark grey, and the denims are always dark wash. This works for me in the creative field I still work in on a freelance basis...... But it is always a delight to find your posts on KZbin, you are very refreshing!

This popped up on my KZbin feed today, and while I agree, I have to say that I've never tried to look younger. Neither did my mother, who always looked beautiful, stylish, and vital, no matter what her age. I'm glad I was raised by a confident woman who never even suggested that it was important to look "young." I'm sorry that, per the reason for your post, too many women are still uncomfortable with being who they are and whatever age they are. If you're comfortable with who and what you are, you'll carry that with you no matter what you're wearing. Know your shape and your basic style and then vary it according to what's fresh to your eye. For me, I know better than to wear big trousers, which make me look like a cereal box with shoes. To each her own.

I also shop religiously at thrift stores, and I have even found Talbots items. But finding those likely has to more do with the fact that I actually live where Talbots was founded in New England and it is a popular store that fits our cultural vibe. However, your point is well taken-I love Kay's videos more than any other influencer because she first talks STYLE, and then provides examples that we can search out in our own price ranges using her guidelines. It works!

Thanks for the tips. No barrel pants for me. May be modern? but not very classic. I think they make everyone look like a barrel. There are other modern pants out there, like cargo etc that are more flattering, so this is what I am going to wear.

I am 74, slim and Petite. My style is classic with a modern twist. Since I am so tiny, I hunt for clothing in my small size. Since sling backs are in style again, I have bought some 1940s era mid heel size 4b shoes which fit me perfectly. I love Blazers and straight leg pants or a slight flare or taper which fit me. T shirt, scarf and ready to go. I also like small fine jewelry, just a small touch of scent and a bit of lipstick. For handbags I have vintage Luxury. Not trying to look younger, just well groomed, attractive while aging gracefully. My mother was my example. She lived into her 90s, still beautiful with lovely skin. Skin care has also served me well, so has sun protection. I have that same Blazer with the gold buttons. I adore pearls, always have. Thank you, enjoyed this, especially finding finding my clothing is stylish.

I did a major clean out of my closet a month or so ago. I was ruthless with what I gave away, but now I'm left with the pieces that I will actually wear. I am having a lot of fun mixing and matching different outfits and playing with 'looks'. I'm rediscovering clothes I forgot I had. Some are old pieces that are now in style again! We also have to remember our lifestyles when we dress. I'm retired now, but I also have a business on the side. It's in the field of personal care for seniors, so it's not appropriate to dress to the 9's when I'm working now. I do enjoy dressing up for church or for the occasional lunch out with a friend, but otherwise, I'm pretty low-key. P.S. I'm not a big fan of the barrel pant look, but to each her own. 😊

Hi Kay, Thank you for the extra video this week! I visit your site every morning with my cup of coffee. Most of the time I am catching up on all of your earlier videos, regardless of when they were made, as I always learn something from you. So thank you for the bonus! So for today, my take-away is the idea of dressing with confidence. At our/my age I have "earned" the right to "like what I like" but also the corollary is true--I know and have earned the right to know what I don't like, regardless of whether they are on trend. For me, I will never find the blue chambray dress and sneakers look to be flattering. Comfortable and casual, sure, but that is not a style, as you so eloquently explain in your style series. You wear it lovely, as you do everything, and it works for you because of the confidence factor you bring to it, let alone your radiant smile, excellent posture and bearing, and expert grooming. But for me, I am not sure if it truly says "modern;" it is too reminiscent of Saturday flea market shopping with the elderly ladies in my parents' 55+ community, LOL, where sneakers and billowy loose dresses are the norm.

I like your videos very much and look forward to watching every week. Last year decided to check on everyone talking about fashion as in my 80’s I want to continue to keep up to date or as you would say “modern”. I found your videos refreshing, loved ……do you look in your closet and have nothing to wear. I was hooked and I believe have watched all your videos you have out. I love fashion and found I was buying a lot more outfits than I should have and in too many colors. Much easier to shop when limiting your colors and keeping your style in mind. Your video’s are a joy! Carole❤️

It isn't easy to go outside your comfort zone. I love that tobacco color; I have nothing in my closet like that. I love the navy slacks with the pretty short sleeve blouse and the green knit vest. I just ran upstairs to check out my wardrobe because I have similar pieces but never thought to wear them together. Thank you for that suggestion. I will wear it this week for work.

Look for less: Quince cotton twill barrel in rust is a fantastic version of the barrel without the extreme effect. I bought them in black and rust too and the seams are done SO well! Very flattering. And SO comfortable.

Great style tips. Wearing what you like and what you feel comfortable in is key. Me+Em has some lovely styles, but the price points are a little high. That being said, I hope to purchase the jacket/shirt when it is available in my size. I will splurge on a couple of high quality, unique pieces from time to time. Your style advice really can be applied to a variety of price points and of course, I will as I always try to do, shop my closet first!

Thank you for this video. Your point about looking modern and youthful vs younger is right on point. BUT… that said, I’m not a fan of sponsored videos in the first place; the reviews are not objective. There is NO WAY I would consider this line of clothing “affordable.” Of course there’s a whole continuum, but I don’t think I’ve ever spent $275 on a pair of pants.

The most flattering jean cut is bootleg with high waist. But they are hard to find. Next best is classic straight cut, as you say.

Thanks for your videos. I personally don't care for Barrel pants , But I do like full length wide leg trousers/ pants/ jeans of Most kinds very much. I think wide leg pants are very flattering drape very well , are very smooth and streamlined which i think looks sharp and flowy. I love how they feel , look and move. Thanks for your suggestions. 🙂

The blazer is gorgeous but oh dear NOT the barrel pants. Too much fabric adds weight on the legs and not flattering at all. Why would you wear them in the name of modern. In my view leave them to the teens!

Love those barrel jeans. I started wearing boot leg and straight leg 2 years ago, when skinnies were heading out. It’s been a transition. At 5’10 and 132 people say I’m lucky to be able to wear them and not get lost. My other find are high waisted bell bottom ankle pants. They’re a little too long so I’m cuffing them for even more modern look with a simple v neck t and leather or suede suede sneakers. Cuffs are the rage. Even I’m having a hard time with cuffing bell bottoms, they may get hemmed. lol. I’m 64.

I'm 67. I just recently bought a pair of those barrel pants, I just didn't know that's what they're called, lol! They're a light powder blue, and I intend to style them with a ribbed, black and white striped, sleeveless top with a black belt.

Love all of your "modern" trend ideas. My personal style is more artsy--I just purchased two pairs of wide leg pants, which was a real stretch for me because I'm petite and 78 years old. Artful Home has interesting styles that are edgy, so I went out on a limb and ordered two pairs of pants from their latest offerings. I love them both! Probably wouldn't have gone there except for your encouragement. I never wear white pants as they make me look like a whale, so both of these were in dark tones but not black, which is my go-to color. Thanks, Kay!

I don’t understand all the comments about the affordability factor. Quality clothing will cost more than Walmart, Old Navy, Loft, etc. I love those stores too but clothing from those stores offers “looks for less,” not quality. As Kay often says, wear (and buy) what you want. We don’t have to be critical about her videos. Get creative and take away nuggets from her videos. Not everything in these videos will apply to everyone. Just thank her for the great video and move on.

Kindness is always in style, but Kay does invite comments and the affordability comments I've read here are honest and valid. In fairness, if affordability comments are not appreciated, then why are any comments appreciated? So many of us feel like she is a friend with whom we could have coffee, so this is a style conversation, which is a two-way dialogue, and style includes cost. At the end of the day, Kay is a business person and is sponsored, so commentary is to be expected. I don't come here to be simply the recipient of advertising but to learn from her viewers as much as from Kay herself.
