OVER 50? Say GOOD-BYE to These 7 Things FOREVER!

[@maryannenge9408]

did anyone notice none of those picture models are over 50?

[@barefootcontessa3112]

They’re all thin as well.

[@StellaWaldvogel]

Publications that are inclusive about size will often neglect to feature older models. But one exception is Gudrun Sjoden's clothing catalogue. I kept seeing this wonderful older woman with flowing silver hair in her catalogues. I found out that her name is Ingmari Lamy. She's a Swedish model who became known in the late 1960s, and she's had a long, impressive career. Yes, she's thin. But she's 77 years old and she rocks those clothes!

[@nickystripe3303]

@@maryannenge9408 I have seen so many women over 50 wearing the cold shoulder stuff, and it looks so awful. No I am not one of those people who buys clothing a lot and my clothes are definitely not expensive because I can’t afford expensive clothes. It seems to me that the whole fashion industry is determined to gear everything toward teens and 20s, definitely not for those of us over 50 and definitely not for those of us over 70.

I agree with you. I am 78 yrs old and I don't necessarily follow all the fashion trends, but, like you, I enjoy looking my best and looking pulled together. I see lots of frumpy looking ladies wearing ill fitting, unflattering clothing with their hair undone, no makeup, and most times being overweight eating unhealthy food, then complaining about their health and I just wonder when and why they stopped caring about themselves. It makes me sad.

[@margerahnenfuehrer2313]

I just really wear what makes me happy. I don't care if someone else likes it. I and the clothes I wear are clean and neat. I care about my appearance but have never gone with trends. I always wonder though why people that make these channels and talk about clothes for women over a certain age always show the clothes that they recommend on models that are for the most part in their 30's or so? Why not put them on the age group that you are talking about ?

[@marcellaarnold2036]

Yes! And please show them on different sized models! We're not all tall, thin models.

[@JLR4244]

I agree with you 100%! In my late 70's, I've been looking for a figure flattering, supportive bra made for seniors. All the models appear to be in their 20's. And it's the same with most clothing. For me that ship sailed 50 some years ago! 😊

Cheap, cheap, cheap looking and I have yet to see them look flattering on anyone (model or not).

Donna Karan did not come up with cold shoulder tops. She reintroduced them. They go back a very long way.

Good tips however I love my Scooby Do limited edition Converse and at 60 I rock them proudly. I have the majority of the pieces you recommended but I rock them my own way. Please use models that are over 50 and represent women who are not a size 2 and tall.

[@toniugueto]

Nancy, I’m wearing my denim capri pants as I watch your video! Good thing I’m only 49😂 super fun video. I totally agree with you on the character t-shirts. I think they look sad on adult women. Great video. So much fun to hang out with you while I’m sewing.

[@ellasmaldon2042]

I do wear low-rise jeans or or other trousers even with skirts. I prefer that for the reason that the high rise is not suiting my proportions. I'm 1.72. I'm an x shape, but my torso is quite short. If I wear high rise, I look like I'm just hip and legs, and I hate that as it looks very unproportunal. I do it for the only reason to make my torso appear longer. It takes a while, but you can find low rise, which does not give you a muffin top. At least, i can. Sometimes, I can get away with mid rise.

[@barbaraeastham9205]

I hated the ‘cold shoulder’ tops. I bought one and wore it once. Hated it!

[@walkindalight]

I appreciated your points. I have seen these points made by other YT stylists. I agree with the many comments saying you need to have photos of women in the age bracket you’re speaking to. And just a personal perspective - I don’t think your outfit in this video is well colour coordinated. The shirt and the vest clash, in my opinion. Otherwise, you are a good presenter and easy to listen to. 😎

[@kristenp5835]

T shirts are very durable and are great to wear around the house and errands. Capri pants never really looked good on most people.

[@leejacobs3620]

Great to see examples of the 'go to' looks.

[@Donna-vh5ym]

I agree with the ripped jeans, but in my 60s, live in Texas and love my cold shoulder tops. I also love my low waisted jeans. I'm short waisted and anything thats goes up higher than the low waisted sits right under my boobs which is uncomfortable. I do like your videos so I can tweak them a bit. While the cold shoulder may be out of style at the moment...I'll wear a light scarf that flows over my shoulders IF I feel like it. I had to come back and add...Those short pants ladies are wearing at their ankles...I just can't. Back in the day they were called high waters and I still think of Urkle everytime I see them. So I guess its whatever that makes us feel good with confidence. I think if you're wearing confidence...you can pull off just about anything.

[@shoppingonchampagne]

Hi Donna! Thanks so much for sharing what works for you and how you have adapted your clothes to current trends. You're absolutely right about wearing what makes you feel comfortable and confident, too. 💕

[@StellaWaldvogel]

Urkel - hahahahaha, that's a PERFECT description. I have no problem with capris ending at the widest part of the calf. It does NOT make my legs look thick since I obviously don't have cankles! I think that length highlights the shape of the lower leg.

[@raniakhalil3913]

Thank you for your advice and could you please talk about the plus size

[@shoppingonchampagne]

Yes! I'll add it to my video to-do list! 😀

[@gpknowles7174]

I've never, ever worn any of these items and I never will. I think capri pants, especially white ones, make ANYONE look ridiculous, as do cold shoulder tops. Carol Burnett once said she thought fashion designers are really having a laugh at people who actually wear their stuff. I agree. I won't say goodbye to these things because I've never said hello.

[@agathaz.r3768]

Yes, the cold shoulder top is so over LOL no matter what one's age

[@marlene7969]

What is comfortable for one person can be extremely uncomfortable for others. And sometimes people can look fabulous in something that others might not think they should be wearing because of their age. I don’t really care what people think I should wear, if it’s uncomfortable or I don’t like it, I’m not going to wear it anyway! I’ve donated too many pieces that someone else really thought looked good on me. I would get talked into buying them. But every time I’d go to WEAR them, I’d end up putting them back in the closet.

[@CGC1954]

Oh my goodness I hated the cold shoulder top the moment it came out and I refused to buy them. I think they look stupid, so I’m glad everybody needs to give them up.

[@butterflygirl3359]

I have fat legs and cannot wear shorts. When the temperature is over 80 degrees, even ankle pants are too hot. I will never give up my black Tek-gear capris with a solid t and sneakers for running errands, food shopping and waking the dog on a hot day.

[@susansmith493]

Capris makes your legs look shorter and fatter. Lol.

[@suzycothran881]

I really like the casual outfit shown at 6:10. Where can I find something similar?

A fun video. I like how you've explained the faux pas that wearing these items presents to the public. As well as not doing any favors for your figure! Thak you!

[@gusmonster59]

Presenting as a faux pas to the public? I'm not sure the public, in general, cares about what someone is wearing.

[@T.T.M.60]

@@gusmonster59I agree!

[@garmtpug]

@@gusmonster59 Unfortunately, we are judged by the way we look (and dress). No matter what people say, unless you are blind, your first impression of a person is how they look. In public, if someone is unkempt, wearing torn clothing, poorly fitting clothing, etc others will find them to be somewhat suspicious and off-putting. We do not live in a perfect world...

I’m new to your channel and I love all your suggestions. I have a question. What is your view on wearing white after Labor Day? That’s an age old question I know! Also, I am 65 and I have a white Jean jacket and a white Jean vest. Is is appropriate for 65? If so, appropriate for fall? Thanks for your assistance. Great video!

[@shoppingonchampagne]

Hi Debbie, Welcome! I'm so glad you discovered me! I do like to wear white year-round, but I think the most important thing is what you wear with it. I usually put away white shoes and white bags after Labor Day. If I'm wearing white jeans or, in your case, a jean jacket and vest, I pair them with darker pieces and accessories.🤩

[@debbiereynolds5317]

@@shoppingonchampagne thank you for responding! I do the same thing. When I wear the jacket or vest I usually wear them with black. I was wondering if in the fashion world that it was considered appropriate. Thanks again! I will be subscribing!

The off the shoulder tops… on some of us that are your size or bigger, what bra is working for that?

I usually go with a strapless underwire bra for tops like that.

[@StellaWaldvogel]

I do have to disagree with that bit about the cropped pants hitting the biggest part of the calf. That's my favorite length for dresses and skirts. It doesn't make my legs look thicker or fatter. People can still see that I don't have cankles, lol. I think it's a flattering length for most people. It reminds me of 1930's movies.
