Fashion TRENDS to AVOID In 2025 | Fashion Over 60

[@Cookie7294]

I didn't buy balloon skirts the first time they were a trend, and definitely won't now. There's a lot to be said for classics.

[@jeannemarie2294]

Thank you! Incongruous! Great word! 🥰

[@susansmithey5317]

That pink puffy sleeve shirt should be illegal forever!!!! 😂❤

[@lizlawley6680]

Last spring I was at a wedding where one of the guests wore a dress variation on that. Short and bouffy. Horrible! She looked like an overgrown toddler. 🙆

[@susantaylor6957]

Love your videos, and you're so spot on with fashion for our age. Thank you.

[@deem5351]

Hurrah for Birkenstocks! They and Alegria shoes are the only comfortable shoes for my feet over a long period of time.❤

[@alohr3491]

Matter of opinion and preference, all of this

[@Veronicabac]

The ruffled blouses look amazing on you! Lots of good points!❤

[@tonimilstead5089]

I hate those jeans with the huge cuffs!

[@JoAnn-u8h]

Love your selections and commentary. I’m with you. Thanks for your video.

[@Myover50fashionlife]

Thanks for watching!

[@elizabethbrown6287]

I love your content Annemarie! ❤

[@caroldewey5043]

I adjust pictures that are hanging crooked. You can imagine what an asymmetrical hemline does to me!

[@Myover50fashionlife]

For some reason it seems different. I m constantly adjusting pictures on our walls but an intentional asymmetrical hem is no problem. One that is meant to be straight and goes crooked I have to adjust but I can do one sided half tuck without it irritating me.

[@carolb8452]

Thanks for sharing a fabulous informative video❤

[@Myover50fashionlife]

My pleasure 😊

[@1234sunflower]

I agree with everything! Great advice, as always, thanks 😊.

[@Ladybug38790]

Well over 60 and when it comes to footwear, my comfort and balance rule the day. No platforms, not made of knit or fabric, wide toe-box, arch support, etc. etc. Spent 50 years working in an office wearing heels every day and now I’m over it. And now I need to sell all my pumps/heels in the online market place because I spent too much money on them when purchased new!

[@trishagoodwin4069]

With seriously flat feet, which are also narrow, I depend Ecco and Merrell for everyday trainers as they are slightly more narrow than other brands and don't look like old ladies comfort shoes either - wouldn't be seen dead in those at 70!

[@aprilxm]

You look great in that purple color. It’s very flattering.

[@Myover50fashionlife]

Oh thank you!

[@JuneBrook-qd2en]

Big legs run in our family so I prefer my shorts ankle length. On the fringe - I'm looking at some right now - it's on a cushion. Seriously though, your tips are so good and make a lot of sense. You take from fashion the trends that suit you, and offer very helpful advice on colour and style.

[@jeanettekays1954]

Great advice. Totally agree.

[@caravb5906]

I like classical clothes that can be dressed up or down but got to confess i am moving away from blue jeans. Also wear a lot of trainers in summer. My activities are mostly walking and walking so they have to have supportive frames as i need support. Never wore a lot of ballet flats and only wear sandals if i am not doing walking as they cut up my feet and leave blisters. I love loose cotton trousers and cut offs and loose blouses. I stick to what i like even if others are following fashion xxx

[@Sealia77]

I love the colour of that jumper on you. Its the colour I've been looking for, not too wishy washy.

[@Myover50fashionlife]

It’s hard to find. I put a few options in the description area.

[@aprilxm]

Fishnet shoes 😂😂😂 No way! Who the heck came up with that? 😂😂😂

[@sandiemerson1916]

I love your jumper.

[@wot4me2]

For me, no crop jeans (why cut off your legs, making them appear shorter?), no barrel jeans (only look good on rodeo clowns), and def no Birkenstocks- Fred Flintstone feet!

[@borghc3749]

Be Classic and chic

[@ManuelaPatzel]

I think the Hoff trainer sole, looks like dirt when you look at it. Not attractive to me. But I agree totally with you when it comes to the wide cuff jeans, not for me either.

[@tamiewert808]

Great video! I laughed at your point about mesh shoes!! I was thinking exact same things, and I’m sure we are not alone! Burkies are the best! There are many styles, and they take care of the feet, which is important after age 50! The wide cuffs are a big no for me, and don’t look good unless you are tall and thin!

[@janetj471]

Those plastic mesh shoes might work as swim shoes but $650 to wear into the water seems a little much 😂

[@Mozartandme]

Tall Thin AND young it looks ridiculous when mature women go out in young peoples clothes !

[@Jan-d2m]

I’m glad I tend to avoid trends! Stick to classics and add a twist is my mantra. And never, ever, ever Birkenstocks 😂

[@trishagoodwin4069]

Classic clothes just end up looking and feeling boring on me, they don't work with my figure type or creative nature, at 70, the age I am now, and never have done, at any age! I think, like everything it depends on your own looks and personality.

[@Myover50fashionlife]

@trishagoodwin4069 yes I need to mix it up too . I enjoy the creative aspect of new styles

[@elainemarsh2656]

Love earrings all styles, but it's a faff trying to find clip-on, I don't have pierced ears, or I have to change the fixture😮. Love this vid, appeals to me, well done for this. Simplicity, classic and chic. The whole colour spectrum, no problem but some subtley. Use colour in accessories. I'm small in stature so I dress with that in mind....elongated. You look great and we all want that, especially when the 'number' keeps going up❤

[@Vicky_PG]

Me gustan tus consejos e ideas sobre cómo vestirnos, estoy de acuerdo contigo. Gracias 😊

[@jessbarnes8521]

Mesh shoes- surely just a mass of blisters. I need wide toe areas- I love birkies including their sneakers. Chunky sneakers are out for 2025.

[@stellacollins3114]

Totally agree, I do own a couple of mesh tops that I wear over a cami in summer but not really revealing, we don’t need to be a slave to fashion trends, we’ve learnt that over the years I hope😂

[@carolineeveratt]

I'm past caring if others recognise what I'm wearing. Especially trainers. Wide cuff jeans Nooooooo. I also remember the Gloria Vanderbilt rhinestone jeans of the late 80's - didn't suit me then either

[@Myover50fashionlife]

Oh gosh yes. I remember those too.

[@purpleygirl100]

That takes me back! I had a pair of GV rhinestone jeans. They just had the Gloria Vanderbilt signature in rhinestones on the back pocket and were burgundy, fine cord. I loved them.

[@pippinhillhaviland1147]

I wish people would be as honest as to who can look good in skinny jeans (which are totally passe) as you were about cuffed jeans. Unless you’re tall and slim, skinny jeans make you look like a sausage. BUT, sometimes we like to wear what’s “in” and not constantly trying to look tall/slim. THAT is self cancelling.

[@gillmolony6781]

Good advice, thank you. Will you be wearing your bright pink Jean jacket this coming season?

[@Myover50fashionlife]

I will be. Probably April onwards

[@corinevandijk1543]

I also have HOFF trainers. Love them,

[@kikihodges8695]

Hoff trainers, I have two pairs. Really good. Walked miles round Barcelona in my first pair. Got them in soft pastel, like neopolitan ice cream, and brash bright vibrant pink's & purple.

[@IreneJones-cl8qr]

Well, I will pass on most of those, so then in a couple years I won’t be out of style! I like fashion but live a very casual lifestyle and am mid-60s so fringes, barrel jeans, soft colours are just not for me. Thanks for a fun to watch video. Your humour is very enjoyable.

[@beverleyolley9789]

Love your videos ☺️👍 Bev

[@Myover50fashionlife]

Glad you like them!

[@mominatwater]

I appreciate your point of view. What of 80 plus?

[@Myover50fashionlife]

I'd say whatever age take these points as a starting point to establish your own boundaries.

[@tarottime3219]

I totally agree 😊

[@marielacey7928]

We self drape 😊

[@marielacey7928]

Balloon skirts not again 🙄

[@frederikavanhout4609]

Barrel legs trousers look great on me, before you say no to something, try it first, you may be surprised!

[@Myover50fashionlife]

I love my carrot leg ones

[@Montrealmum]

Stop telling women what to wear

[@matthewproctor2180]

My feelings exactly:). This is my husband's picture BTW:). Glenda Proctor I'm commenting on the mesh ballet flats! Yuck

[@jjonesbr1]

I'm 81 and still like a fashionable look. Thanks for this lovely YT.

[@Sara-k6y4h]

Exposing one's knees when one is over 60, or even perhaps 50 something, is not a good look. God has created long skirts and long pants. So, ladies, wear them.

[@ciaomuffet]

tulle..is pronounced 'tule'

[@aprilxm]

Couldn’t agree more with everything except the jeans. I just like plain straight or slightly flared bootcut jeans. Are cargo pants a fad?

[@Myover50fashionlife]

no they are a staple. I wear them every year regardless of the style narrative out there.

[@aprilxm]

@@Myover50fashionlife I am glad to hear that. I started wearing them in the fall and have a couple pairs.

[@Myover50fashionlife]

@aprilxm I wore black ones out to dinner last night with a turtle neck sweater and leather jacket

[@smmmarti]

It’s not only age. Some of your advice seems to imply everyone is wider and schlumpy over 60. That’s not true so be sure to consider your body type, proportions and style when saying yay or nay to trends. The same applies to women of any age. I agree that the ballet flat, in general, flatters no one!

[@DeeBee63]

I found a stylist across the pond that's my sister. We are short and the same age. Yea😂

[@Myover50fashionlife]

Hello sister 😅

[@cherylsoderstrom7391]

Those barrel style jeans are not flattering. They add pounds and a bow-legged effect.

[@misottovoce]

I absolutely hate 'trainers' unless for sport. Perhaps it is my age at 75, they have the association of wannabe trying to look young and trendy. So clumsy looking on the feet and just so inappropriate with dresses and skirts. Yes, IMHO.

[@d.d.mac.3773]

This video made me laugh out loud at points, the mesh shoes, the huge jean cuffs, the no one wants to see my everything comment. 😂I'm afraid I'm way past shorts of any description, no one wants to see that. I will wear ankle length pants instead and save everyone! You are all welcome.

[@Myover50fashionlife]

Glad you enjoyed it. It made it worth it 😊

[@gardenhappy4]

Some channels I watch say that although "chunky" sneakers are still considered fashionable in 2025, the trend is shifting towards slimmer, lower-profile sneaker silhouettes, with brands like Adidas Sambas. Because I walk a lot at work, I recently tried a pair of Hokas (Vionics are also very good!). Hokas are clunky but the support is the best I have ever tried.

[@Myover50fashionlife]

Interesting about Hokas. I’ve heard elsewhere that Sambas are out . Theres such a lot of inconsistency.

[@janinebate1272]

What is that pink monstrosity she was wearing? Is that seriously meant to be a blouse?? 😅
