    I'm your grandma (i.e. her age group) and we wore view number 1 with the mini in the late 60s🌹And I loved how it looked and felt. Love your videos Lydia❤️❤️❤️

      I also love the fashion of the 60s. These suits short jackets with mini skirts were fabulous. But honestly, if you are still slim and you can wear them, why not? I personaly don't care about what is on trend or not. To me what is "on trend" always is what I like and suits me.

    • @melbert3795
      @melbert3795 Рік тому +3

      Yep totally agree. Chanel 60s style jacket and mini is the way forward IMHO.

    • @magdlynstrouble2036
      @magdlynstrouble2036 11 місяців тому +1

      Maybe just a slightly longer mini skirt, just above the knee? That's more of a 1965 vibe

      But you might have been 20 years old or younger when you wore that! It isnt a grown up look today though, for an adult woman.

    I love the educational spin on your channel. It’s so refreshing from typical fashion UA-camrs who are just doing hauls and pushing new products. Many of us busy have lives and just want someone to tell us what looks good 😅 you are the best resource I’ve found ❤

    So pleased to hear they’re back in the spotlight, the wide trouser and cropped jacket is soooo much more flattering for my short legs 😂 grateful after years of blazers and skinnies!!

      @lynndupree1205 11 місяців тому +1

      @amandaamanda5398 I agree, shorter women are sometimes looked at as childlike. Very irritating especially in the workplace! But,,, the cropped jacket is actually a beacon of sophistication! Think Coco Channel, the original style guru. The collar-less tweedy version is perfect for work, whether it's a suit or just the jacket with a skirt or trousers.

    I loved this video because this length of jacket suit me much better than longer jackets. All your tips are really useful and I can easily identify now why an outfit will not work. Love your videos! 🥰

  • @pamelaspooner7183
    @pamelaspooner7183 Рік тому +7

    Advice from a grandma: you are demonstrating the 1/3 - 2/3 rule of proportion. If you have 1/3 of your vertically visual clothing on top, then wear 2/3 on the bottom and balance the fit. As in cropped jacket with longer skirt. You got it!

  • @gracealexandra25

    I think so much before buy something new now... I always think if I can wear it years and years to come... I think I have learned so much with your videos that I'm dressing and feeling better dressed now... I had a lot of possible combinations with clothing I already have that I didn't knew it will work...

    Thank you so much for this video! I wanted one of these cropped off white tweed/boucle jackets so desperately. I thrifted one and updated it with gold & mother of pearl buttons, but I did not like how it looked with the usual mini dress. I felt defeated and it hung in the closet ever since. I just tried it with a tucked in thin slate gray knit and navy flared trousers and I love it. I will get to wear it a lot now thank you for this video.

  • @lynndupree1205
    @lynndupree1205 Рік тому +1

    Lydia, this is so valuable right now. The store are filled with the cropped Chanel jackets. My mom taught me how to do proportions just the same as this video. Basically it's long over short, or short over long. Short over short looks too skimpy, and long over long looks sloppy. Of course you explain it better!

    Thank you! I’ve just bought a fantastic cropped tweed jacket in turquoise in the Luisa Spagnoli sale. At age 69, with white hair, I certainly don’t want to look like a grandmother. I am thinking straight leg black leather trousers or white jeans. Thanks for the tips

    I like the stylistic effect of cropped jackets & the Chanel style, but I hate the traditional Chanel material of old grandma couch/curtains. It's hideous to me but I love the cut. A crop jacket with boot cut, straight, or wide leg jeans or trousers are so elegant.

    If you are short waisted, a top not tucked it can be flattering if it is quite fitted.

  • @mehitabel6564
    @mehitabel6564 Рік тому +1

    And finally a t-shirt under an haute Chanel jacket is great for giving what can be quite a mumsy garment a more youthful vibe. I would avoid the scarf, both the big one which fights with and swamps the cropped look, and the silk scarf wrapped around the neck. I own quite a few Hermès scarves, and stylistically their sportier styling (in the classic sense) is incongruent with any Chanel-style jacket.

    • @teresacarle294
      @teresacarle294 Рік тому +1

      💯% agree that an ordinary workhorse type tee (that swings slightly shape skimming) is the smart way to modernise this matronly 🤶 old 💲money cropped jacket.
      🤔Think the fussy formality is enlivened by the utility of ordinary cotton, esp. when paired w/a denim bottom. 👖 I don't do jeans, but I could envision swapping it for a straighter maxi skirt. Finished off w/a classic white leather sneaker too.
      😉I also saw a woman pull off a more activewear casual look in a cropped corporate suit set. Under the racy red jacket she donned a body-hugging wafer thin navy zippered hoodie pullover, & tucked it into the matching knee length pencil skirt. It was a slightly tweedy texture w/tiny threaded navy & yellow dots. She added navy slip-on leather Vans & a petite leather backpack/purse. Maybe not something you'd wear to an office, but it definitely constituted streetwear 🆒️ chic that gave an ageless vibe.
      😃I like the scarf that Lydia wears in the thumbnail👌. Again, I think that elegance plays well w/the casual outfit that she styled.

    🤯Never thought I'd pick the look that came closest to "lady who lunches🍽 " 〰️esp since I hate🤬 creamy off-white & don't wear jeans👖〰️ but the look w/the scarf is perfection💋.
    🤗Skirts are my jam, so thanks for including the maxi that could've come straight outta my closet. Next time: how about a tea length pleated skirt & knee length pencil (or a-line skirt). Appreciate inspo to make stuffy corp suit-sets more casual.
