    I'm struggling with my style at age 81...it seems that everything has changed and why and how...I have questions....
    But mainly it's about remembering to be kind...first being kind to ourselves so that we can then be kind to others....patti 🌷🍃

      For some reason I can't reply normally. But I will say, I don't think anyone knows how we are "supposed" to dress. I just wear what makes me comfortable with myself that I feel I look good as possible.

      Patty, you are such a stunning 81/82 year old woman. I have never seen one of your videos where I’ve thought that you didn’t look good. I have to say at 71 yrs old that as long as I feel comfortable in my outfit, make up & hair style when I look in the mirror then I’m ok to go out or just hang inside. I don’t relay on the opinion of others. It’s only how I feel when I look in the mirror. Unless you’re wearing hot pants or a dress or top that is cut down to your navel please don’t change your amazing style. It’s who you are rxstrmom 🥰

    Hi, Patti! I had a little chuckle over, "Patti is afraid of growing old." I mean, Patti you are already old, and you are the LEAST afraid person I can think of regarding being worried about aging. Here you are at 81 with a UA-cam channel about style, makeup, hair, aging gracefully, and being kind. That's not fear -- that's CELEBRATION! Love you, Patti.

    I'm 58 and struggle with the same thing. I think when I quit working outside the home, it changed how I dress. I'm home all day, I'm not going to dress the same way I did when I worked in the corporate world. Now, I find that I wear what is comfortable, and truly have no idea what is in style or trending. I really think anything goes! Make yourself comfortable and confident 💓

I am not fond of flares or even wider legs. I think we should all have our own style. I wear what makes ME feel good. I'm the one that matters. ❤

    I turned 76 Oct 2nd and have been following you for years. You have been a great inspiration for me, I always admired that you don’t let a number dictate how you dress. I will continue to wear what I feel I look good in. If it’s “too young”, I think we instinctively don’t feel as good about it, but I don’t dress like what I use to think a 76 yr old should! You are a beautiful woman. Just do what feels good to YOU and don’t worry about conforming to other’s ideas of what we should do. ❤

    Getting older takes courage. We become invisible to the younger generations and I’m ok with that now. I’ve adjusted and accept it. I don’t care about cosmetic surgery, I’m good with drugstore make up, comfortable clothing, saving money, etc. My main concern is being very mobile, not hurting and able to play with my grandchildren. I just got an e-scooter for my 70th birthday to take them for scooter rides. It’s so much fun.

    Patti you are a beautiful woman of 81. You don’t look anywhere near that age and you know why I say that. Because when you’re 81 , 91, 71 you should look old. You are so pretty and should be proud and your family proud that you care how you look. It’s not just that your lucky to be pretty but you care how you look. I’m the same way. I just turned 70. I wear makeup almost everyday. I don’t wear anything I don’t feel good in, and I don’t dress for anyone but myself. Well maybe my husband once in a while. I still get compliments and it makes me feel good as I’m sure you do but I feel good because I know if I didn’t care how I looked I wouldn’t get those compliments. I just hope you’re not letting yourself become depressed. You continue being the Patti I’ve learned to know and who has inspired me along the way.

    I am 75 and there are days I don't care at all how I look. And if No one else likes it they can look at something else. I wear loose tops to cover my belly. I used to care so much and wouldn't leave the house without makeup and hair done. Prissy girl I was. But now, it really doesn't matter. I'm at peace and comfortable with it. I wear stretchy pants. I know if I wanted to put on my makeup I could look better. But it's for me and no one else. You look beautiful.

    I’m 76 and there are issues that I’ve had to deal with such as thinning hair, pants that don’t fit right and shoes that hurt my feet. When we are younger we never think we’ll get to the age our parents were. But there are many choices out there to pick from. Pick a style that makes you feel good. Shoes that don’t hurt your feet. I wore pointy shoes while I worked but that was in my younger days and wanted to look good. Now, I go for comfort and yes there are styles out there that are comfortable and fashionable for us older women. I recently bought the jeans you showed us from Walmart and I love them. A lot is trial and error if it doesn’t fit like you want it too exchange it and try again. I dress every day like I’m going out to dinner. There are challenges with every age group, I think our bodies change so much that we’re more aware of how we look. What’s the saying? With age comes wisdom, maybe we’re at that stage in our lives and know it. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family! I think you speak for a lot of us and I appreciate it very much. 🤙🤙😁😁

I have silver thin fine hair and wear it up in a fashionable way and looks appropriate and my husband also has silver hair and we both are happy where we are in life.

    I’ve been overweight for a long time, but have taken it off the over past few years, & I notice that my face & arm skin are VERY telling on me.
    Yes, my hair, also. I am taking ARMRA Colostrum in my protein drink daily, and that seems to help. (protein2O)
    And eyes bags really tell a story on me, but I am blessed to still feel good and feel pretty jiggy for my years.
    I would feel lucky to look anywhere as good as you do in 10 years ❣️ fingers crossed.

    Patti, I was 79 in May of this year and quite frankly for the first time I do feel old😐. It seems to me that the focus of my days have become more narrow. For example, I go to Church, the grocery, an occasional Dr appointment and once a month to Bunco with 11 other ladies who are approximately my age. But my zing (energy) is slowly depleted. I will say that thanks to you, I have started to wear make up again! It also feels like my opinions or advice are no longer sought! Oh well… not much to be done about it but I won’t just sit back and wait for the end. I try to be optimistic, upbeat and enjoy my somewhat “narrow” days. And of course prayers always get me through! So enjoy watching you Patti!

    I’ll be 78 next month, and aging became a reality for me when my husband died almost two years ago. We have known each other since we were 17, have been together since we were 19, married at 20, and married almost 56 years when he died. He still is my best friend, my love and my life. My zest for life, my desire to be active are gone. I manage and do the best I can day to day, I get out and do things, meet girlfriends for lunch, travel a little with my kids and sometimes one of the grandkids, but it just isn’t the same anymore.

I will never leave the house without makeup and pulled together. There are days when the makeup looks a little off, but I tried. My husband and I have been married 63 years. He always says I am beautiful and that he is proud of me. We go to the gym 5 days a week and walk 1-2 miles a day. I have those days when I think 85 and 90 will be here soon enough. Our focus on our savior is what keeps us grounded. I think these thoughts on age are normal. We have good days and bad days. You are an inspiration to many of us women. Love and kindness also thankfulness is most important. Thank you for sharing and being you.

    My clothing looser, shoes flatter, no more Bright patterns...I wear cute flats, leggings, loose usually solid tops, most of the time. Comfortable ... I had long hair and always wore it pulled up into a bun decided to get it cut & like you let it grow out, I'm your color now...and styled about under ear length ,looks much better more flattering and more youthful takes a little more work but I'm worth it😂 and I've accepted I do the best I can 😊

    You hit the nail on the head. We just want to look the best that we can look at whatever age we are. And what used to work for us doesn't work as we age so it's a learning process that we go through. You are definitely not afraid of aging! As you said, you're not doing facelifts, fillers, injections, etc. and neither am I at the age of seventy four. Feel good about yourself because you're doing great!

    Patti, just be you. You set the ‘look’ for others. That comes with confidence from within. I have been happy with just being classic. And you are right - when you feel it, it’s right.
    I am 78 and lately I have been so grateful that my body still works! There will be a day that will come when I won’t be able to shower on my own, when I won’t be able to walk to the bathroom on my own or dress myself. So I am taking a new look at how blessed I am that I can still do these things and be independent.
    So take a deep breath in and find that confidence again. It’s there. You’re just having some self doubt like we all do periodically. It will pass. In the meantime, check and see if you might need a little vitamin B12. Just a thought.
    My love to you. And thank you for being there for me and all the rest of us!💕

    I know we are all different, and to each their own. At 69, I know who I am-actually I have always known who I am at every age-and I love who I am. As for me, I will wear whatever I want whenever and wherever I want. I have never followed fads or let anyone tell me what my style should be and I never will!!! I have a very dramatic personality and style, so with my eclectic taste, I have some of everything in my closet and I plan to enjoy it all until the day I die!!!!! I own enough makeup, skincare and bottles of fragrance to open my own boutique-the same goes for clothes, handbags, jewelry,scarves hats and every other accessory imaginable-I love it all!!! I say don’t make a mountain out of a molehill-be who you want to be-if you don’t know who you want to be by 81, you will never know…🤷🏼‍♀️. I would be a whole lot more interested in your health issues and how you have dealt with them…just sayin…🤷🏼‍♀️

    I’m not 81 but I am about to turn 58 and this is just my opinion but I feel like ever decade we go through these types of feelings. 60 is just around the corner and I’m not sure how do 60 year olds dress, how do they speak, how do they do their makeup, is it different than 58?? It has to be normal and something all of us at some point in live go through. I can feel your pain and I guess if we just forget the number 58 or 81 maybe we would be better off! They tell me it’s only a number! Just be you without a number!!! Gods blessings!

    I’m 81. I apply full face makeup every day unless I’m not feeling well. I have found that classic dressing never goes out of style. I’ve purchased few in-style clothing every year based on new styles because I know they will go out of style quickly. Classic clothes can always be updated with a scarf, jewelry, purse, etc. classic clothes are never out of style. You can have a couple pairs of pants in straight, flared, boot cut, etc. to make your outfit trendy. Always try to buy well made clothes-they last forever. What bothers me the most is losing hair-you don’t know what hair products are really good or not. I’ve watched Asian videos that look great but can’t get anyone to tell me if they can be used on blonde hair. Media exploits women to youth, sex, and how to attract men. Stay true to yourself-what looks best on you will always be in style and will continue to make you look good. We all want to look good-keep your hair, nails, complexion, body the best you can be. I’ll be 82 in 6 months, and I still have people comment on how I look because I care. When you feel confident, it makes you feel good. I don’t look my age-I can still turn heads (men and women) because of my style-some young people don’t understand how to dress today. I just want to add that you are a beautiful woman-I wish I had your complexion and hair. Be thankful for all of your positive attributes. We all get down on ourselves sometimes but we have to learn to accept what we have and who we are-you are a beautiful person.

      Collagen Peptides is the best thing for your hair and skin and bones! It is a tasteless powder and I put it in my coffee every morning! You find it almost anywhere! CVS, Walmart, meijers, Walgreens! It has helped me so very much. My skin was tearing, bruising, thin hair and brittle bones! My hair had always been thin and now it is long and thick! It is amazing! My hair stylist tells all her customers when she saw what it was doing for mine! She uses it all the time too! Good luck! Oh, I am 71 by the way! Hope you love it as much as I do!

    At 75, single, work full time, my personal style now is the same as for the last 30 years, with updates and slight modifications. I still wear jeans, blazers, but less trendy more classic. In the end, you just have to be happy and confident in whatever you wear, and to heck with others. At 81, lovely, you have definitely earned the right to wear whatever makes you feel good, confident, comfortable, in your clothes as well as your skin. Thank you for raising the topic, as I'm certain most women entertain these same feeling☘️🍁

    I’m 75 and truthfully for the past few years I simply dress by the comfort of my clothes. I never think what others may think of it. To put makeup on like you anymore it’s most uncomfortable. I try putting some on daily but by mid afternoon I’m grabbing for a makeup remover and washing my face , using skin care only and it feels so good. I do have a few health issues so maybe that’s why? My only fear of aging is if I get affected by dementia I’m just me and happy. I feel I’ve hardened as I age sad to say. .

    So glad to see u Mz Pattie - I'm loving that shade of blue on you, it's very pretty. I can understand where ur coming from in terms of being displaced by social media and how new this is since social media was created. No one can keep up with social media darling - that's why it makes so much money - folks are always chasing the next big thing. It seems to have shaken your confidence greatly and I'm sad to see that. Only you know who you are inside and what makes you feel unique in this world. Let yourself be free of the social media pressure. Being online watching videos is not gonna do u good when ur confidence is low. Ignore the fact fashion trends and allow ur own personality guide you. Be comfortable - be casual - be dressed to the nines! Whatever the day presents, please, please just do you ♡♡♡ Loads of love from me in Scotland xxx

    I am older than you by a few years. I think I didn’t really think of my age at all until my late sixties. My problem was the dilemma of trying to decide what I wanted to look like, clothes wise. I never wanted to dress in “ old lady clothes”. Which I don’t. These days I wear jeans cute tops with longer sleeves and sandals or tennis shoes. I had health issues this year also and during this time I lost weight. Which has made it easier to wear things that are more flattering. Anyway, you always look great and comfortable. You’re such a pretty lady anyway. I still feel like I always did inside at least most of the time and that helps so much. When I lookin the mirror I’m happy after I have put on my makeup. Using less makeup of course. I’m just so happy to know several great grandchildren. Can’t believe I’ve lived so long.😊 you are just perfect ❤❤

    Ms. Patti you are an inspiration to me. By God’s grace, I will turn 50 at the end of next month and I stopped fearing looking older years ago - after following older women social media for encouragement. I realized that I didn’t want to watch all the content that was trying to tell me how to look younger - I wanted to embrace the inevitable change that happens with aging. And, as for style, I believe in “You do you Boo.” If you feel confident in a certain type of outfit - then your confidence will be your best accessory!

    I have just recovered.from a decade of being all but bedbound. After I began to be able to move freely, I got to watching UA-cam and ran across your channel. I'm 72 and realized if you could still do makeup, I could too. I them moved onto a strict regimen of skincare because I had neglected it so long. I also started searching for me-appropriate clothing. You started me on a journey of new discovery about who I am now and how I want to look. I have never followed trends. But finding items I want is difficult. However, this new lease on life I have is miraculous and I don't intend to waste it.Thank you for inspiring me.

    Hi Mrs. Patti: I am almost 51 years old and in terms of wardrobe style I don’t follow trends and never will. My style is around classic pieces that never go out of style to dress up or dress down. Also, love cute fitness clothes for daily use. I added to my wardrobe a variety of cute and colorful sneakers, sailing loofas. I get rid of all heals. And also love boots because you can use them to enhance any wardrobe. You are stunning and love your approach to aging. Don’t worry about trends just select something that fits your style and make you feel good. Aging is a beautiful process and I am not afraid of it.

I lost my husband 24 years ago and have enjoyed my precious grandchildren and as they are moving into their 20’s and 30’s I find myself wondering about age. My faith says enjoy others, be kind to others, and enjoy what you can at whatever age you are.
