      Great comment. Agree. Another one (I heard it about other ladies, sometimes about some bloggers): "You look good, but you have sad eyes" (implying that something is happening in the life of a woman). These kind of comments are not good at all! I feel not comfortable for those ladies and for those who make such a comment.

    Right on girl. I'm 78 and all my life I've been told that I wear the strangest things. I just smile and say I prefer to call it unique. I love style and color. I don't dress for anyone but myself. I always look nice, mostly I get compliments but ever now and then someone trys to tell what color or style is appropriate for my age as they stand there in their frumpy style. I just smile and go on. I want to look my best everyday. I am a child of the Most High God and I feel He wants me to be the very best I can be everyday.

    I'm 83 and have lost a lot of weight, on purpose. I can wear trendy clothing now and am having a lot of fun (maybe too much) watching all the videos and incorporating nice things into my new wardrobe. I have nice jeans, dress pants, striped and plain with lots of varied colored t-shirts, a white and a grayish pair of sneakers; loafers, a blazer, a couple of lady cardigans that will probably work well for several years, I think. They are all pretty classic. I do plan on being around long enough for them to wear out. 😊

    Yay to getting rid of “…for your age”, “trying too hard”, and all the other put downs and not exactly compliments some women use on other women. I’m 75, keep up with trends that work for me and have jeans and boots and sneakers and get real compliments all the time. I work out daily AND have a trainer. Things haven’t be easy, several back surgeries and a shoulder surgery in the last 3 years, but I get up every day and put my “war paint “ on, get dressed and move.

    I got the sweetest complement from my granddaughters college roommate at Christmas. She told me that she hoped that she was cool looking & full of energy when she gets to my age. I'm 69, will be 70 this March. I dressed appropriately for my age but add some little pop of color or trend. I exercise and my granddaughters keep me young feeling & full of energy. As my grandmother taught me, age is only a number & you're as young as you feel, but always dress & act as a lady should. She was a wise woman.

To me she always acted old even as long as I can remember but her mother was my positive role model who knew style. She passed away when I was 9 but her influence on style was a very positive for me. I wonder sometimes if women say these things about themselves at influence of their mothers? I went gray 3 years ago and love it. Found out brighter pops of color really are better.

    First of all- when I turned 50, my body wasn't the same, and that's the reason I decluttered my closet . I always loved fashion and my style was very classic but recently decided to use more colours- love how red looks on me. Yes, I get some odd looks from time to time, but that doesn't bother me. If I feel good, comfortable in whatever I am wearing it is fine with me. And I realised that somebody else's opinion doesn't matter.

      Also I'm turning 80. I tend to wear classic more neutral subdued colors. That's my style anyway. No prints or loud colors like I wore inthe '70's 80's. Best to wear colors that blend w/ skin tone next to face.

      I would disagree. You can rock colors, whether they be bright and bold or neutral. Don't worry about the 70s - no one owns an avocado refrigerator or harvest gold anymore. But it's important to see what colors are on trend and incorporate them into our wardrobe.

    I have lived a healthy and fitness centered lifestyle since my late 20’s. Now, at approaching 74 years old next week, my size 0-2 body and weight of 112 lbs. at 5’2” height allows me to dress youthful, in very fitted clothes. I do not wear midriff baring or mini skirts but always dress for my body. My age has been guessed by numerous people as 50, so to shave off a quarter of a century is fine with me. Health wise: no problems, no meds. 6 days a week of hard core strength and cardio has given me the fountain of youth, coupled with healthy eating.

      There again, if you aren't feeling comfortable or confident wearing a particular item then don't. But don't let a photo dictate how you feel. We've all taken plenty of bad photos throught the years. There are entire UA-cam or Instagram accounts devoted to posing in photos. Happy New Year!

    At age 71, it makes me laugh when people struggle to say politely, you don't look it. I assure them that I don't mind looking my age: I am proud to have reached it, still fit and well. I have lived a life full of ups and downs and challenges, and don't care if it shows. My hair is all white but well cut. I wear no makeup except a touch of lipstick. I walk, cycle, do yoga and swim in the sea. I buy and cook fresh vegetables and organic meat. Take pleasure in dressing every day

    I was watching a different youtuber’s videos about age appropriate styles and trends. When she said that we should stop wearing perfume and cologne because it’s offensive I was shocked. When she said that if we really have to have some scent, we should just wear scented deodorant I had to laugh. So, if we are older it’s offensive to smell like fine perfume but ok to smell like scented deodorant ? 😆.
    This was a great video and I agree with all of your points.
    What’s your take on leggings? I have a ton of nice ones. I’m tall and pretty slim. I like them and am tempted to wear them even though everybody seems to say it’s a no-no.

    Great video! One other thing that I think plagues older women is the dressing to hide our weight or feeling fat in everything which might be the underlying thing around not showing arms or knees. Like it's a character flaw to age. I never feel this way in other countries so we need to start the revolution here.

Fashion is fun and I pick and choose what appeals to me and is flattering. I love bright colors,polkadots,stripes,checks and patterns. I love accessories too. Why would I stop wearing flattering outfits my whole life. I always get compliments. Again, thanks for your thoughts

I have always loved a classic with a twist sometimes. My feeling is that if you are wearing something and feel confident and beautiful you will pull off anything you want. I love to incorporate a trend here and there or a pop of unexpected color or something just plain fun. No such thing as age appropriate, I have always asked myself “is it appropriate for me and my lifestyle “.

    Beth, you hit on every point here! My favorite clothes are classic by design - but I believe all women should choose clothes that flatter them and make them feel good. We have an age bias in our country - all women 60 and above are not usually described as looking good - but rather - good for their age. We don’t ever hear comments like that about men. At 68, I’m dressing for myself, period. I think everyone should exercise - the endorphins alone are worth it! Thanks for reminding us all to tune out the noise and have fun with our fashion choices. ❤

    In my mid-50s I started vigorous daily walks to clear stubborn “chest wall pain” from a respiratory infection. To my amazement, the excess weight just came off me without changing my diet. I kept it up and lost 50 lbs. over about five years. I have a serious back problem and walking is all I can do for exercise, but it’s enough. My health is better than in my 20s and I feel good. Start very slowly and easily and build up your time and effort gradually (I increased the number and slope of the hills I walked). If 50 or over, or obese, get a medical, especially cardiac, clearance first, just in case. You might only be able to go around the block at first, but it’s amazing how fast you’ll get stronger! Those who walk daily are healthier, less depressed or stressed, much fitter and live longer. Plus, at a size 14/16 there just wasn’t a good selection of stylish, high-quality, natural-fiber clothes that fit me. The choices seemed to consist of only black polyester “basics”. Now at about a US size 8 (varies by brand and garment from about 4 to 10), I can shop any brand, and clothes, fashion and style are so much fun again.

    One thing ive heard is about makeup for older women. That we shouldnt wear eye shadow at all. Or, if wedo wear eye shadow, it should be very muted and beige. We shouldnt wear blush. Thibgs like that. But, i love colir! I rhink that not wearing blush makes me look pale and just blend in with the walls. I have very fair skin and i think pink cheeks are important to help me look alive. I look a plum eye shadow or a gray with sone pink. I agree that matte is best. I live sparkle, but i wear it very sparingly because i think it does enphasize lines and wrinkles. What are your thoughrs on this? This is your first video ive ever found. Do you have any on makeup for older women? Thank you!

    Thank you Beth, for inspiring us older ladies to not give up! I am 63, and struggling with my fashion choices. You look beautiful in everything! My legs used to be my #1 asset. Sadly, the cellulite makes me self conscious and so I only wear shorts around my home. I have opted for skorts, they seem to hide a little more. I remember not to long ago, I wore this beautiful leopard print dress to my church. It was right at the knees, and sleeveless. A younger woman glared at me “like how dare you try to look younger!” Its as if there is only enough room for a younger “Cinderella”. How dare we try and be attractive!😏

    I'm pretty modest in my clothing, but because I'm only 5' 2, my skirts look better above my knees.
    I look better, and like v neck, and sleeveless blouses too.
