“Erin Busbee, a Telluride, Colo., blogger who specializes in over-40 fashion, agrees that “a lot of it comes down to the placement.” She suggests cutouts that fall just under the bust or at the sides of the waist. “If you have strategically placed cutouts they can look classy and sophisticated.”

I agree 100%! I am 71 and do all the things you talk about. I am fit and slim and wear just whatever makes me happy and feeling good💖
If you weren't slim and fit, I would wish for you that you STILL work whatever makes you happy and feel good. We, as a culture, do a LOT of shaming people for not being slim.
Awesome!!
I’m 77 and I no longer wear shorts, but skorts are just my style! 🎉
❤️you
I’m 43 and have gotten more compliments about my style from strangers over the last year than I ever have in my whole life! I wear what makes me feel good-and that definitely includes bold colors, mini skirts, and prints! Loved this video!! ❤
Love this video Erin! I'm 54 and have a bright, crayon purple winter coat that I have been wearing since I was in my 30s. It is the burst of happy color I need in the bleak Midwinter. And, almost every time I wear it, people young and old are kind enough to comment on how much they love the bright color in winter. I hope I'm fortunate enough to still be wearing it in my 70s and 80s! 💜
So good!
Hi Renee - I have green and purple coats that I wear in the winter! There isn't a time that I'm out in public that someone doesn't compliment me on them! They're great in a sea of black!
Your coat sounds absolutely lovely! Thanks so much for sharing, Renee! xo
Thanks to all for your supportive comments. And Celia, green amd purple sounds terrific!
Love bright colours in the Winter. We need that boost when it is dull and cold outside. Good on you!
I'm so glad that you reminded us to stop saving our nice outfits for special occasions! Every day should be special! We will feel and look beautiful wearing clothes that we picked with so much care - it should not be a one-time deal 😉
Exactly!
True! I definitely have a separate vacation/out of town wardrobe that I LOVE and then the boring acceptable stuff I wear the rest of the time.
As a chubby kid with a very strict and criticizing Asian mom, I only started wearing sexier, more fitted clothes in my late 20s, after I learned to eat healthier and exercise. I feel like I've only just started to enjoy being more creative with styling in my late 30s as I've learned more about what I like with more economic freedom. Really appreciate you putting the message out there that we should be free to dress how we like after our 40s💃
I love this ❤ and at 53 I wear mini skirts, leather pants, and plunging necklines. People have commented I have great style. A man I was on a date with, commented I have an energy of a 30-year-old. I'm not wild and crazy, I'm a typical calm and collected Libra, but I have a fun spirit and what I wear emphasizes that energy.
Awesome!!
Halleluiah! As a 65-year-old that moved from downtown to the country in Texas, I had to ignore what others thought of my style. I need to be true to myself and self-expression in clothing. Hugs from Texas❤
Good one!!
Love that! Thanks for sharing and dressing for YOU! xo
Love this! :)
I loved What Not to Wear! Some people really needed the help 😂 I also loved Carmindy's segments bc I learned to do a 5 minute makeup routine from her, which I still do today. I did feel, though, that towards the end of the show's run S & C were dressing everyone in the same way ... which became boring and predictable. Interestingly enough, it is what I'm noticing these days too. Especially in NYC. Everyone dresses in the same way...either in a yoga outfit or in the same predictable influencer style with the same designer handbags, same oversized blazer or coat, same chunky boots or sneakers, same Mom jeans, baggy jeans or silk skirt, same crop tops etc. It's so boring! I wish people embraced themselves and their true individual styles more instead of being influenced by the same trends. 🤷♀️ Btw, take the tuxedo dress to Paris!
I remember that show is was cookie cutter everyone will the highlights the suits the trousers . We all all different I wear I made my feel happy 😃 I don’t follow rules
Is it just me or does Erin remind you of Carmindy???
Wow, I forgot about Carmindy, she did such a great job.
I loved the What not to Wear show; sorry you saw it as negative. I think they reached out to the extremely challenged, so they had to put the spotlight on the wrong … then mostly emphasizing what works for your body type. Regardless, I enjoy your presentation as well. Both approaches teach us how to complement our figure while staying current. Love your suggestions and the way you include all of us.
It was a great show, very entertaining! I am really just talking about the ideas such as "No mini skirts over 35". We just can't put those kinds of "rules" out there for everyone. Hope my message helps you to feel excited to wear the things you LOVE, no matter what. Thanks for watching! xo
I liked it too because sometimes they would change something as simple as what bra they were wearing and it completely changed their outfit.
@@BusbeeStyle i agree! I loved it but never took it literal
I guess we've moved on from these sorts of rules now
Totally agree!
Gosh, this video gave me so many feelings. I tried to remember the last time I didn’t give a crap about what people thought of my outfits I was a teenager in the nineties, when it was hip to look unpolished and unladylike. Now I’ve changed my style to be more refined and classy and find that I derive my outfit enjoyment from what others think about how I look, particularly since putting on weight. I need back some of that teenage rebelliousness. 😊
Yes, you DO! And why do we have to be so sweet and nice all the time? We don’t. Embrace the rebel and the b*tch! 😂🌟✨
Yes, as a nineties teenager, I remember experimenting with the “grunge” look and others, only to look ridiculous in them. (No longer my style anyway)
I have been thinking the very same thing! I was most myself in my style in my teens. What happened to me? I want to recapture that boldness and authenticity
Hard to believe that show came out 20 years ago! 😮 I absolutely loved it and probably watched every episode, but I was in my 20s. Wonder how I’d feel about it in my 40s. I think the older I get the less I care about what everybody else thinks or the “rules.” The added benefit of getting older and wiser.
And yes…the ol crop top. Two weeks ago I wore my first crop top to the gym. I was nervous, and when I got there I immediately received a compliment on how cute my shirt was. I’ll probably never have lower abs, but thank goodness for high waisted leggings and upper abs! 😜
Nice!
Yes to all of this! I absolutely love when you talk about breaking style rules. It is ridiculous for those of us who are over 40, 50 and beyond to limit ourselves and refrain from wearing things we love that make us feel beautiful and frankly, how many times have we seen young women looking not so hotso in something an older woman would rock!?
The What not to Wear show was hilarious, I miss it. Nearly 3 decades later, I still laugh at having given away two pairs of real leather pants while in my 40s because I felt I was too old to wear them. It took me five years to forgive my body for changing due to menopause, but now, like you. I realize how wonderful it is to be this age and to be healthy and still be able to have fun with fashion. No plunging neckline for this girl however, not in the past, not today not ever. 😁
I am 36 and mother of 3. You are my style guru, Erin! So glad I found your channel, your advice is always gold! Thank you! You inspire me so much!
I'm honored to be even a small part of your journey!! SO glad you are here! xo
I had NO IDEA how to shop, dress or flatter my body type until What Not to Wear. I LOVED LOVED LOVED it!!! Back then, we didn't have TH-cam, Instagram, etc. I know they were super sarcastic and sometimes much too rigid and judgmental, but I still felt their love. They weren't as progressive as we are now as a society, which isn't ideal. But the reality is that people ARE passed by in some professional (and other) settings based on appearance. And some of us aren't pleased with our own look; we just don't know what to do differently! Love you, Erin!
I am 45 and lusted for leather leggings for some years. I supposed I might not wear them often enough as I am over 40. Got one pair two years ago and used them so often! I will get so much wear out of them in the upcoming years as I love how these pants look and feel.
I learned from this example to follow my instincts and not listen to the mean questioning voice (inside and outside).
Edit: wow! You look wonderful in the romper with the long sleeves! Such a beauty!
I wish I could go back in time and show my 20 year old self your videos, so I could have felt as impowered by your words as I do now. Thank You Erin
I love this video, Erin. Thank you! I need the reminder to value myself enough to wear things that make me happy. This video reminded me of an incident. About a year ago I was driving to my dentist whose office is in an outdoor mall. I saw a mom walking between shops with her daughter, who was about four years old. The dear girl was in head to toe sequins. She sparkled, and she was loving it! I thought about the fact that there's a period of girlhood when it's acceptable to wear sequins any day and every day , and how delightful that is. And, I thought, you know.... I've seen some older ladies in the grocery store on a random Wednesday morning wearing their sequin top with joy on their faces. So I think at some age, maybe that time comes back! And, I have moments of wondering, I'm 52, am I there yet???
Yes!!! Why do we lose that ability to wear what helps us shine? It's time to get back to that again... Thanks so much for sharing this story, Victoria! xo
I loved your message...dress in what you feel best in no matter the age!! Thanks, Erin!
So glad this video spoke to you, Joyce! Thanks for being a part of this amazing community! xo
I am 67 and I never stopped wearing miniskirts. I love them and look good in them!
I don’t believe in ‘ageing’ I believe in levelling up! If you are level 45 now, just think how much more confidence, self love and experience you will have when you reach level 50, it gets better and better. Be positive, enjoy every level and don’t spend a moment worrying about whatever age you are, it’s just a number!
Love, love, love this video!! Your emphasis on wearing what makes you feel amazing is so empowering!! I've been trying new things to wear because of your videos Erin, thank you!! It's been a catalyst for building up my self-esteem something I've struggled with my whole life. I feel amazing in my jeans which are high-waisted and have wide legs!! My 21-year-old daughter has given me compliments on those jeans and even bought a pair herself! I also love wearing a bold lipstick color!! These are just a few examples of how I've incorporated your tips into my life. Thanks so much Erin, you rock!!
LOVE to hear that, Jessie! For you and your daughter! Thanks so much for sharing, and being willing to take those fashion risks. They have clearly helped you to feel more free and excited about your style! That's what is so important... fashion should always be fun. xo
Go Erin! I NEVER let rules stop me. Wear what you want!
Yes!!
At 56, I've just bought a denim maxi pencil skirt that is actually very flattering and I love it! Also ordered some slouchy fit straight jeans, it feels good to be a little more current
I appreciate that your channel encompasses all things as it relates go fashion and not just looking youthful. Focusing from the inside out, embracing who we are, aging gracefully and taking good care of ourselves. Being mindful of all those things makes even the most basic outfit more beautiful…
You really inspire me! I’m 74 years old and ready to dress to allow myself to be happy ❤
Love that! Thanks so much for sharing that, Barbara! You've got this!! xo
Just packing my suitcase for my Birthday weekend (48) going to Nice, France and i just packed my bright fusia minidress😊
Have the BEST time on your trip! Happy Birthday to YOU!! xo
My husband told me l look good the way l dress and l just looked at him. That is when he said can you not take a good comment. I love your blouse. Thank you for your words of wisdom it really helps me with my confidence.
It can be hard to take a compliment... I totally get that one. It takes practice to hear and truly accept it. xo
Great video! Happy to see you smiling!
Another inspiring video Erin. Yay to breaking the rules with sass and style! Love the lip print blouse!
Embracing and loving me, no matter what age I am.. I am loving your channel!! Being 52 is a hard number, but I am loving it..
Love your inspirational attitude and view on our age and fashion - thank you for the push!
I missed a video like this from you Erin!!! Thank you so much!!!!
Hi Erin, love watching your videos, but this might be one of your best videos I have seen so far. Beautiful message ❤ love it!!
Thank you!!!! 🛍️🛍️🛍️🛍️ need to freshen up my wardrobe and have fun 🎉
Thank you so much Erin ! I was feeling the winter blues but now i am .going out in pink today! Great reminder to live your best life x
Pulling out my romper today and going to pair it with tights! Thanks so much.
Thanks as always Erin for your inspiration and love! 😘💞
This is such an empowering video! Thank you for teaching and sharing 💓
This is the best way to be. Thank you for sharing with us Erin 🌟❤️🤗
Thank you for this video. I have been going through this back and forth with myself over the last few years about what I should or shouldn’t wear - talking myself out of the bright colors I love or bold prints I love because I’m over 40 now…but I got into a new job last year where I’ve been trying to push myself and let that fun/edgy/playful style out of me more and its been making me so happy. I think I just needed to hear it from someone else too. So thank you💗
I loved your attitude and you are so right no one should care but you. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Erin.
Super video. Thank you for giving those of us who need it the confidence to wear whatever the heck we want.
Excellent points Erin. Thank you. Please share more...as you are able. Can't wait to see your Paris content.
Thanks so much for your support, Kathy! Can't wait to share! xo
Thank you for this, Erin. Pure gold! ✨💖✨
I’m new to your channel Erin. I’m 52 and got emotional watching it. I was always so hard on myself. I’ve really been wearing more of what I want over the last few years. You just gave me a kick in the pants to push it a little more. Thank you!!
First of all, WELCOME to a truly amazing community of women, Heather! SO glad you are here and finding my tips helpful for you! xo
Probably my favorite video you’ve ever made. I want to listen to your words every day!! You are SO right!! Thank you Erin ❤
Love, love, love your approach in this video and others about breaking out of all the voices in your head about shouldn'ts and don'ts.
I saw an older lady at a football game this past fall who had a few body faults and dressed a little risqué for her age (some people's thinking) but she was having the best time and she didn't care what everyone was thinking. She looked like to me she was doing something she didn't get to do all the time and she was going to have fun. Was she a little of a spectacle? Yes. But she didn't care. She was having enjoying herself!!!
All your information was helpful too!
I like everything you say… love watching all your videos. Thanks Erin!
I love this channel throughly inspired and makes me smile
I got teary towards the end of this video. Thank you Erin..YOU ROCK ❤❤
Thank you so much for this video I love how you say throw caution to the wind we need to enjoy our bodies
Thanks for the inspiration 🙏🏽🙌🏽💪🏽
I needed your motivation. I love fashion , it’s fun. Thank you,for your positive vibes and reigniting my flame !
Love love love! I’m excited to see your Paris pics! I’ll be there in April-so plenty of time to soak up your Paris inspiration before I pack. ❤

Personal growth, confidence, style…..you are AMAZING!!!!! Love your content.
Love the comment that it is a privilege to be this age. So many folks take it for granted. Great job, Erin❤️
So true! Thanks so much for watching, Cathy! xo
I enjoy watching - thanks for what you do to help ladies feel good about themselves over 40 😊
I'm inspired to take some fashion risks! Thanks Erin!
Fabulous, loved it. Amazing positivity ❤
Another fabulous & really helpful video, thank you.
Love love, love this video so many good ideas. I thank you so much for giving us all the encouragement and confidence to break some of the rules. Great job. ❤
Erin thankyou.I just love your videos.And you always give me a boost with your words.
I don't understand why some think shorts are great for everyone. For me shorts look frumpy on me but mini skirts are more flattering & hides my imperfections. I will continue to wear mini skirts. I'm to old for mini skirts?? Nah... TFS... Love your inspiration, Erin.
I really admire your attitude, it’s refreshing. Thx 🙏
This video made me HAPPY, loved every look.
Thank you Erin loves your videos
Hi Erin, I love ALL these casual looks and your formula for creating the perfect outfit!
I think I'll try the cargo pants ❤
How fun! As always, great advice. I’ve been watching your TH-cam about 5 years…. Your advice was the first to give me confidence and teach me a few things that upped my style game…. THANK YOU SO MUCH.. NOTIFICATION ON!
Amazing advice, I love this video so positive and forward thinking and I totally agree with you ‼️❤️💯
Been bing watching your Spring Summer videos. Thank you for all your hard work. It's clear you love doing them.
Can't wait for warmer weather! Thanks so much for watching, Rhonda! xo
🎉Great, great video…lifted my spirits. I’ve put on some weight from 2022 and tend to cover up more. Feel very frumpy lately.
Yet another awesome, inspiring, energetic, idea generating video! It is so absolutely true that women need to wear what makes us feel good and empowered! Erin you are a fabulous guide/guru for all of us out here watching your videos! I know I check my TH-cam every day to see if there’s a new video from you. Just love all you post! Thank you & keep being the amazing YOU that you are! ❤
Thank you SO much for your support... I appreciate you more than you know! xo
Such an amazing video!! I love breaking the rules in fashion. I have been doing it for many years and it feels so good!! It's a strong message to all of us to remember to celebrate ourselves every single day, let's our unique personality shine!
You inspire me so much ❤
I love this video and I love how you empower women to be and feel their best!
Thank you for this video and your attention to make all women feel comfortable in their choices!❤
You are SO welcome! I'm humbled by your sweet words and support, Rachelle! xo
So positive and honest.
Thank you for inspiring, challenging, and encouraging content. Wonderful video!
You are so welcome! SO glad you enjoyed today's video, Melody. Thanks for watching! xo
I always liked your videos, thank you for all your attempts, you are great.❤❤
Thanks for another great video. Tami
Loved this!
Love your videos. You help me think "outside the box". Appreciate your message. Wish that I could tag along to see your "fashion show" in Paris.
Can't wait to share all of the looks after I get back! xo
You are so right Erin! I have always been an extravagant dresser and I sew most and customize ALL of my garments….but what I find now, at 58 is that it inspires others, people love it and it is loads of fun! 🙂🙏🏼❤
Erin, I think you are one of the wisest and most creative fashion vloggers out there. You deep dive into the psychology of it. How it makes you feel wearing certain things. Creative ways for us to express ourselves through fashion. Thanks for all of your useful and creative content that is a ‘cut of above’ most of what’s out there. ❤️
Wow, thank you so much for your kind words and genuine support... Truly appreciate YOU more than you know, Teresa! xo
What a wonderful message, Erin - not just for personal fashion, but for life in general. And I adore your blouse too!
Thanks so much for watching! SO glad this one spoke to you. xo
I just love your videos, great fashion tips, you are so encouraging and beautiful inside and out. Thank you.
Loved this video! ❤
Great video, keep on empowering women!
wooooow love these looks Erin.
I love your videos! You always look awesome. I am subscribed with notifications but I never see your notifications in my notification list. I have to remember look for you videos. I saw What Not to Wear break their own rules many times depending on what looked best on the person. Their rules were only a very general guideline for the fashion challenged to follow. I completely agree that you can look classy and wear sexy garments over 40.
Thank you Erin, your video gave me a boost 🙂
Erin, you do this better than anyone! Keep going! Love this, thank you!!!
You are the best, Sherry! SO glad you enjoyed this one! xo
First of all, you’re 48!? You’re so right about people being caught up in their own stuff, i try tell my girls that.
Congratulations on the article💕🥳
Thank you SO much! Very exciting! xo
Totally awesome!!
