    Here’s a tip from a grandma with 7 grandchildren. Save the white jeans until the kids are over 8 years old or you’re likely to have stylish handprints or other “prints” on them! You also need shoes you can run in to catch up with them! 🥰

    as turning 70 and feeling frumpy! You 5 Tips to beat the frump video inspired me! I had a special event to attend and you helped me elevate some pieces I already had - starting with an Eileen Fisher outfit I added a scarf - untied!- pulled out some metallic sandals and used a flat iron on my hair instead of curling it under. It made a real difference in how I looked and how I felt! Thank you so much. I’m a fan!

    My thoughts on comfortable and clothes is that comfortable is an issue of both fit and function, and even the most formal clothes should be comfortable. Great content! 🎉

    I just don’t understand the “genius” who came up with tucking just one side of your shirt in. Looks ridiculous!

      @christinekellyrose9435 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Influencers show you the half tuck from the front and on some body types, it looks just ok. They don't show you the sloppy look from behind. But wear what you like🤷🏼‍♀️

    • @suzannegabrielle
      @suzannegabrielle 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It's supposed to make you look thinner because it shows your waist. I dislike it and frankly I think Kay would have looked slimmer with the shirt was completely tucked in.

  • @nataliedoll1350

    Kay - I think your beautiful spirit and feminine confidence is something women need to recognize and know, too. You speak of it often. More women need this. As I have traveled and worked and observed women...they need to be more aware of how they carry themselves and how to step into who they are and who they are called to be. You do this so genuinely. Peace

    I think most people these days want comfortable and casual!😜 That's really mostly what I see when I go out in public, and even in church.
    I wish more people cared about looking nice. The problem with 'stylish' is it's open to the interpretation of each person.
    All you style influencers spend a lot of time and money finding clothes and Fashions to show people, but I wonder how many people are actually wearing this stuff. I just don't see it a lot!
    For me that half tuck, jeans with rips and frayed hems, and most front tucks, just look sloppy.
    I grew up at a time when if you had rips in your jeans it was because you couldn't afford to buy a new pair. I'm certainly not going to buy brand new jeans like that!😆
    Most of the time I feel overdressed, and I'm in jeans a lot! 😳

    Kay, Thanks so much for all of your tips on building a wardrobe. I had never really thought about building a wardrobe where everything worked together. Last spring I build a navy and white capsule and it was wonderful for traveling. Now a year later I can see how my wardrobe is coming together. I shop completely differently now. During one of your shows you talked about going into new stores. I started doing that and I have found several new places to shop that I use to never even go into. Thanks again, your show is very helpful ! Blessings to you.

    Another wonderful video and right on the mark for me. I live a casual lifestyle but do want to look a little elevated and I picked up some great tips from today’s video. I love that you are so relatable and normal. You are not stick thin and yet you look so attractive and wear the outfits so well. So many fashion magazines make us feel we can’t look good unless we are emaciated. The links make the outfits achievable for us. Thank you so much for the content you creat for us mature ladies still wanting to look stylish.

    Kay, thank you so much for these wonderful tips! I work from home, and based on this video, I changed my outfit to meet my sister for lunch. I have been working from home vs. in an office for four years now (since the pandemic) and I have struggled with my wardrobe, striving to remember to buy clothes for my current life. I occasionally travel to meet with customers, and I have outfits set aside for that, but otherwise I need to focus on stylish, comfortable outfits for the 90% of my time that I am home. I love your recommendation to look for style first, not for comfort. P.S. I turned 60 myself in January. 🙂

    • @donnatregaro7375

      Marilyn, I struggle with the same thing. I have a crafting business I run out of my home and I’m either up to my elbows in silk flowers or glue. It’s hard to think about wearing “nice” clothes to do this job but I come from the corporate world for over 40 years and have a hard time not still wanting to wear the suit!😂

    Everything is super casual today, even church. For me it would be a challenge to find a place to dress up for. Only weddings, which we only very occasionally attend. Restaurants in my town that used to be considered fine dining have patrons in jeans.

    • @mariabarnes9197
      @mariabarnes9197 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Sadly, this is true. Now, choosing to dress up is more often based on our own values, comfort level, as well as venue, & or event style. It has become a more conscious choice, as we realize that we're going against the current of what is commonly done.

    • @lindaspencer6547
      @lindaspencer6547 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      I quickly visited with neighbors (in their late 70s) who seemed very dressed up, he in slacks and a sport coat and she in a lovely dress with coordinating jewelry. I asked them where they were going and they said a birthday party. Wow! What a difference from younger generations (including mine just 15 or so years younger.

      I love your channel and eagerly await each new blog post on “defining your style”. I live in the mountain west where our climate is very dry. I think trench coats must be more common where the weather is more damp or wet as I’ve never seen anyone wear one here. The denim jacket is quite common as are “lady jackets” (perhaps as opposed to the blazer which I also seldom see). I wonder if “style” is regional and weather dependent. I’m not sure, but I find the differences interesting. Thank you for your efforts to help us elevate our looks. You had some lovely options today.

    • @KathInNJ
      @KathInNJ 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think they are,@@lindaspencer6547 ! I live in a NYC suburb, and see trench coats & blazers often when when we go into the city, but very rarely will see either around my town. Even when it's raining, most women are not in trench coats but in more of a raincoat - think LLBean or Lands End outdoorsy, not plastic poncho style. I lost 30 pounds last year and needed clothes that fit my new body. I bought a couple blazers and have worn each one only once, feeling uncomfortable and inappropriately dressed for errands around town.

    • @teresacarle294
      @teresacarle294 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      😊Kay once discussed the importance of our being appropriate in dress. That still resonates w/me. Historically, there have always been spoken & unspoken expectations about how we ought to dress for any given occasion or specific activity.
      Our dress shows not only how we honor & value ourselves, but it is an indicator of how you respect traditions as well as esteem others too. Technically, we're supposed to give our best to those we hold in highest esteem.
      🙄Peer pressure to conform is real. It can sometime feel like a salmon swimming upstream💦 if you go against the flow. If you buck style trends in your area〰️even when you do it in a subtle manner〰️it can be like waving a red flag🚩.
      At our core, we're very herd oriented & instinctual. By doing anything different, you're ultimately challenging the status quo in the social heirarchy. Inevitably you might get some blowback for doing so, but that's par for the course. Simply smile😁...& go about your business.
      🏥Humanitarian & 🎬Actor Danny Thomas once likened his daughter Marlo to a 🐴thoroughbred. 🏇Like that equine athlete on the track, he said she needed to wear blinders. That way〰️instead of being distracted by what others next to her are doing🤸‍♀️ in this race of life🏃‍♀️〰️she could keep her 👁👁eyes firmly on the prize🏆. When we do that, everything else will fall in line.
      😘That advice is worthy of us all.
      🤫Don't allow yourself to be distracted by nonsense.
      💪Leaders stand out. They don't skulk in ths shadows.🎉Blessings!

    Loved this video. Especially love how you just don’t show us items to purchase but try to teach us how to put them together and to build a wardrobe. Two of my words I used to define my style was comfortable and casual but I understand what you mean and I’m rethinking things. Did order the blue jacket and shirt from Athleta as I think they are something I would wear often. Thanks again.

  • @debbiesanders2634
    @debbiesanders2634 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Thanks Kay. You always inspire me. I especially liked the tip about shopping for style. Yes! I think I do that instinctively but sometimes the clothes aren’t comfortable. So material and fit have to be right too. I’m starting to get rid of clothes that don’t fit me or are uncomfortable because the thing is I don’t wear them!

  • @KathInNJ
    @KathInNJ 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I have tried and I just can't do the sweater over the shoulders. I feel like I have a cat around my neck. (I used to have a cat who loved to lay around my neck when I'd sit on the couch, haha). It feels so bulky to me, just like the thick scarves feel. Just too much. I try again every now and then, but nope. Won't work for me. Doesn't help that I have long hair, and it makes my hair sit funny. I'm envious of those who can pull it off.

  • @ianbradley6028
    @ianbradley6028 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Your discussion on the 3 style words was interesting. I don't agree with some of your points. You said that the word casual should not be included in the 3 style words. My style words are classic, casual and polished. I use the word casual as I am now retired (more than 10 years). I worked as an engineer and later in manager and needed to wear suits or very dressy separates in my job. The word reminds me that casual is now my lifestyle. Use less the Danish You Tuber uses the words casual, classic and edgy as her lifestyle is working at home with a young daughter and dog. The additional words classic and edgy ensures that she dresses nicely, but her lifestyle is also casual.
    I don't agree with your use of the work effortless for one of your 3 words. I'm sure that you put a lot of effort in your dressing. You keep an eye on what is currently in style, you go through your wardrobe each season and ensure that your clothing is not wrinkled. You have beautiful accesories such as jewelery, shoes and handbags which I' am sure take time to find and put together.
    I do like the tip to wear your top and cover up pieces in the same colour. I did enjoy your video and appreciate it! Chris

    I love the dressier to casual looks you showed, except the sweater over the shoulder. Even though I like the preppy look I don't care for this one. It is a personal preference that I will pass on. Kudos for the women that will wear it and are comfortable in this look. I do like the tee shirt under a blazer look. So classy but casual. I like denim jacket with a dress also,. So cute!

  • @dawnsfields
    @dawnsfields 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I would really appreciate a video from you on this same topic when if’s the peak of summer. When it’s over 100 degrees here in the South and it’s HUMID! You just can’t add a layer and it’s too hot for jeans. How can I not look and feel frumpy in shorts and a tank for example?

  • @kimberlyperrotis8962
    @kimberlyperrotis8962 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I don’t like very casual outfits on me. But, comfort is so essential that it isn’t one of my style words, it’s my first criterion for even considering wardrobe purchases. Not all comfortable clothes are casual, it’s not the same thing at all. I’m much more likely to wear a silk skirt or trousers than sweatpants, but to me, the comfort of silk and other natural fibers just can’t be matched. I find the synthetic fibers of athletic wear extremely uncomfortable and I hate Spandex. My three style words are elegant, classic and tailored/structured. Structure or tailoring flatters the figure so much and adds another element of comfort. I think a shirt with bust darts is so much more comfy than a bust-squeezing, flat-front top, for example. Or jackets with well-set shoulders and sleeves, they give 100% full arm movement, but less tailored items don’t.

    When you first mentioned the style triangle, I thought "my words are elevated, stylish and comfortable". Then you continued discussing the style triangle about not using comfortable 😂😂😂. I really like your advice on going into a store and looking for stylish clothes (comfortable material) instead going in looking for comfortable clothing. This will be a mindset change for me but a good one!!

    What a wonderful video filled with helpful tips! You've helped me so much with being more intentional about what I buy and how to put together an outfit that feels authentic to my style. Wish I could give you multiple thumbs up! I loved the examples of how to change an outfit to look more casual or more elevated. For a more casual look on both of the dresses, I think another option would be some basic white fashion sneakers.

  • @darlenebergantzel1534
    @darlenebergantzel1534 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I get what you are saying about ‘casual’, but for decades I dressed in professional clothing, so one of my words would have been ‘professional’. I think of these as being opposites. If someone asked me to describe my wardrobe, ‘casual’ would be one of the words.

  • @edennis8578
    @edennis8578 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I use the word comfortable as something I have to keep in mind when I'm shopping because with the adrenaline going when trying on clothes and shoes, I don't even feel it when something is uncomfortable unless I'm paying close attention. Does something itch, poke, feel tight? Too many times I didn't notice something wrong like that until I got home and had relaxed.

  • @wanda18221
    @wanda18221 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +12

    I really appreciate these tips Kay because I have a tendency to overdress because casual styles don’t suit me as much as tailored polished looks so I’m making an effort to not look too stuffy but still be classic. I still dress up for Church without hesitation because I want to show respect for the occasion.

    • @flowerpower3618
      @flowerpower3618 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      We are all different. Wear what makes you feel comfortable and approachable . I feel like I’m in someone else’s clothes when I wear tailored clothing. Give me the hippy natural look or an gardening apron over a tee and jeans and I’m me.

      😊Yes! 💯% agree about their being regional style differences. The trench was definitely created for wet ☔️ weather, but they have expanded their territory🌎 & appeal🤩. Likewise, my golf umbrella morphs into a parasol🌂 once the 🌞sun stays out. It allows me to bring a spot of shade☂️ everywhere I go while it adds another layer of needed UV protection.
      😁Luckily, there are lightweight versions of the trench coat that work wonderfully as a topper almost year round in my warm & dry climate too.
      As an extreme hourglass⏳️, I love❤ the simplicity & elegance of the midi wrap style the most. It's less structured than other silhouettes, & as a result it cinches in better too. Sadly, double breasted styles (esp. when buttoned up) tend to exaggerate my width ↔️.
      😎On warm days, you can tie the sash🎀 in back of all trenches to reduce the bulk & visual volume. It also helps it to stay open🎉.
      😉My next favorite trench would be maxi length. They're most dramatic. Greater versatility for pairing w/both short & long garments. Plus when you go tonal w/your color palette🎨, they also effectively elongate↕️ your vertical profile too.
      🥰Was gifted🎁 a beautiful black London Burberry duster length trench coat & a stunning vintage dark gray suede Oleg Cassini midi trench. Both items are true ❄️Winter weight. Even with the heavy liner removed, the Burberry has an extremely short🤏 shelf life here in LA.
      😬Don't care. Decided they're worth the closet space, but my coat category has been capped. Simply won't get my max cost per wear here. Frankly, I'm at blazer capacity too. Outside of an a/c blasting🥶 environment, their use are strictly confined to🌡70° F or below⬇️. Classic button ups become a light topper layer instead👍.
      🤔Jeans & jean jackets might be considered chic, modern, & stylish to the majority of the world🌍〰️but they are OFF the menu for me. Firstly, I seriously OD'd on all sorts of denim in the 90s. Secondly, those two particular garments feel too heavy & structured in my climate🥵. Once it starts to heat up, I can barely tolerate the weight of my denim😂 vest. In fact, full length trousers are swapped out🔁 for some kind of a ✂️crop.

      🤔Dial it back a bit if you believe it's necessary not to look like some crazy caricature. Know that you can be inspired by this elegant era without being an exact copycat.
      Otherwise, trust your instincts. Experiment. Make adjustments accordingly. 🤔Unless you're seeking promotion in an ultra conservative or corporate setting, most of us have some leeway with how we dress.

    Good advice. I used to be thin thin thin. Now at 69, my tummy is thicker and every pair of jeans I try are too tight around the waist. Any advice to older ladies who are smaller but wide at waist. Seems there are not many jeans with relaxed waist so I find myself settling for pants that are uncomfortable. If I buy a bigger waist, they hang in legs/butt.

      Chico's and NYDJ jeans are designed with slightly bigger waists.
      I find that H&M jeans have more generous waists. Some Walmart jeans. Amazon jeans.
      When you are shopping on-line, look for jeans that look similar in the hips and waist.
      Avoid Levi's.

You will concentrate way too much on not getting them stained. You want to wear something you can get down on the floor and play with them and it will hide the stains. I also agree with the posters that say I believe you work harder than any other content producer in putting together quality information. It really shows.

      There is absolutely nothing wrong with the dress and jean jacket outfit. And age certainly has nothing to do with it. If it's not your thing, just don't wear it but is it really necessary to make degrading comments? Kay puts a lot of work into showing different styles and trends. They won't all be for everyone. She's just showing options.
