I’m 71 and retired. My wardrobe is jeans and tee shirts. And flannel shirts for an over shirt or cool weather. I have two peasant skirts with a fitted long sleeved tee and low heels for church because I’m orthodox and I dress modestly for the Divine Liturgy. I have a couple of nice tops and the rest of the time I wear jeans.

Rather than a mix and match capsule I find having 3-5 complete outfits for each type of activity for each season is simplest. Some items crop up in more than one outfit, but they don't have to. I do still have some extra items from previous outfits which I can use for variations if I want, but if I'm going out for a meal I only have to choose between 3 outfits. If one outfit is fairly plain I can ring the changes with different accessories if I want.

I’m a slender petite and I won’t buy anything oversized, those styles just swamp me. I won’t buy anything really tight, either, or high in Spandex, which I hate, it gives me bulges where I don’t really have anything much to worry about. A classic fit is best, which skims and shows the shape, but doesn’t cling or squeeze. The biggest style mistake I see my fellow American women make is squeezing into clothes that are just too small, they just make them look fatter!

Hi, I’ve found as I age, the simpler the style, the better I feel in it? I also favour, quite smart basics, in solid colours too, I do not look good in swathes of material, or very busy patterns or frills. I’m petite so I try to keep it uncomplicated. 😊 it’s very easy to be swayed by what others say in your sixties, and I feel really sad about it as many of us lose our confidence too? However, if it makes you feel good? I say, wear what the hell you like! You’ve earned the right. 😊❤

The biggest help for many women would be to take photos of themselves in their outfits. When we see ourselves in a mirror, we can put an emotional veil of bias over what we're seeing, for good or bad, but it's different with photos. We're more likely so see how we really look, without so much bias. I would bet money that a lot of women think they look fat when they don't (that used to be me) and a lit of women think they look ooh-la-la when they look like mutton dressed as lamb. There are countless scenarios where women overestimate or underestimate how good they look in a given outfit. I can think of several fashion youtubers who don't seem to watch their own videos or they would never recommend some of the outfits that they choose to showcase - particularly in the last year, for some reason. I've unsubscribed from five different channels because they seem to have lost their minds. Just saying, take photos to see how you really look. Don't just depend on your mirror.

I think if you get a good bra fitting and have a thin band across and under the bust with a gentle flare that skims the tummy can work. That said if it does not feel right for you you should avoid it.

I only go out 2-3 times in the spring and summer and 3-5 times in the fall and only 2 times in winter. So I only keep 2-3 outfits for weddings and special occasions and everyday clothes for summer and fall times. I didn't know had so many clothes. But i have been up dating everything because hardly anything fits anymore. But I have been upcycling so items too new looks. And jeans for garden aprons with plenty of pockets. I'm a cool tone and stick too chocolate browns,charcoal grays,black jeans and slacks, navy dress slacks ,tan pantsand just found my vneck t-shirts navy,black 1long sleeved and 1 short sleeved ,multiple coloured with blues,cream,and tan. I keep 1 black pant suit for funerals and printed blouses that matches all dress slacks. I just had too buy more clothes that fit and will go with . And yes I bought leggings that are loose fitting look slacks and hang perfectly skinning. And will only keep too handbags in cream leather and dark chocolate almost black cross body. And 2 different sneakers ,4 sandals, 4 flats. The rest will be donated. 2 winter coats in black puffer knee length and below knees, 3 different blazers,1 navy raincoat. 2 black boots.

Have trousers cut by a tailor so they are as long as possible dependant on the shoes you wear. I hope that helps!

Hi Jennifer, I am sorry you are struggling to know what to wear. Without seeing you it is hard for me to give you concise advice, but I would advise you to stick to natural fabrics like cotton, silk and linen as they will allow your skin to breathe better in the heat. I would also try to stick to block colours. If you want to book in for a complimentary consultation with me I can see how I can help you more. The link is in the video notes. I hope that helps a little.

Confused. Dressing for over 60s and the first photo was someone in their teens. Tuned out

That’s a photo of me and Katy Perry??? 😂 I am definitely not a teenager and neither was she. I did use some younger images to demonstrate colour etc as it was easier to demonstrate contrast. However , that’s a shame but I wish you all the best finding what you need elsewhere

Thank you for making me aware of this. So my channel has only just become eligible over night for ads which have obviously been added automatically. It is really good to know there are too many as I will look into tweaking this so thank you for letting me know. I’m glad you appreciated the content.

Why when your talking about over 60s atre you using pictures of women who most defiantly not in their 60s, so skin tone and hair co.our is most defiantly different.

Eileen thank you for your comment. Most of the images I have used in this video are of women over 60 and older. In regards to skin colour and hair etc, whilst it can change slightly as we age, there is no one factor that goes into determining which colours suit someone. By showing clear differences in the images I have shown a small example of the differences out there. After 25 years of working with clients I know that frequently most fall between the cracks of the predefined colour palettes of 'autumn' 'cool summer' etc. I constantly work with clients who have had colours done based on those simple categories and they are not right. Therefore it would be impossible to represent everybody in such a broad subject. If you are interested in learning more about colour I am more than happy to chat to you in a consultation. You can find the link in the notes.

Hi Eileen Thank you for your comment. I have addressed this several times. I used some younger images to demonstrate how different colours work and to demonstrate contrast. I wanted to show the extremes so people could see what I was referring to. However, the vast majority of the images are of older women. Most images of older women I have access to to be able to use them in terms of rights have grey hair, which would not work in this case.

When demonstrating colour, I need to show contrast. The vast majority of images of older women show them with grey hair, which would not work in this instance. I am sorry that does not work for you, and I hope you find the content you need elsewhere.

Fair enough. I can’t please everyone. Watch the video and see how you feel then. 🙂

Once again, women made to feel age has to change how they dress. It says a lot that no one is telling men how to dress after 60. Maybe if women weren’t so pressured to feel there appearance was so important we could all relax and think about something more worthy of our time and abilities.

Have you watched the video because I am not telling anyone what to wear so I don’t understand this repsonse?

I enjoyed your talk about ‘Over 60’s’, but why would you use so many photos of 18-year old beauty princesses ?

Hi thank you for your comment. I have addressed this several times. Not all of the images are of younger models but to clearly demonstrate colour in particular I used some younger models as many other available images of older women had grey hair which would not work. However none of them were 18.

You look lovely but your eyebrows are a little dark and overly-arched, they don't look natural and I couldn't help zooming in on them, hope this doesn't offend.

Hello, Thank you for your comment. My eyebrows have always been that shape, which I like because it is my face. Luckily, I am confident enough to say that. I am unsure what part of that comment you thought would not cause offence? My question would be, why do you feel the need to comment like that to women you do not know on the internet? I am about helping women feel more confident about themselves, so I will not tolerate this about myself or anyone else following me. I am sorry you find my face that offensive, clearly you must be perfect. Just for the record, I will always call out nasty comments masquerading as "advice" because they are NEVER acceptable.
