One of the perks of being 80 is that I don’t have to worry about trends. The trick to looking good when you get older is being true to yourself and wearing what is comfortable and makes you. happy.
Well at 71 years old, I am finding I am not as concerned about looking younger. I am struggling with not being able to do the things I did when I was younger.
@@parishadnz.6048 , there is no such thing as ”over aged”. (I could say everyone who is under my age is ”under-aged”. ) On the other hand, style is not a matter of trends. I see so many boring, yet very trendy, uniforms in the street that it makes me yawn (and laugh sometimes). The beauty a woman brings in the world is not about clothes and makeup. A woman can shine through any clothes if she is happy and fulfilled. As to this film, the clothes Diana does not agree with are like that mainly because they create a disbalance in proportions or do not fit in terms of color. Not coordinating is something else.
It is when you don't care about your age anymore that you shine the most. Being hootless and free makes you irresistible, even at 70! being self-conscious about aging and trying to fight it makes it worse. This said, stay fit, thin, eat clean and well and watch your posture.
@@ileanamuntean7338 , for sure. In my world, so do vey short skirts (which we call ”handkerchiefs”), but for more practical reasons, like not being able to bend, if needed, without showing your underwear. But that is not what I meant. On style, you do not ”have to” follow any trends. Striped blouses and fluid black pants are quite classic and so are quite a lot of things shown here. Wearing a bag that does not fit the pants is a matter of style and personal choice. BUT that is not what I meant. Learn what suits and balances your body and you will always look nice. Learn what colors suit you (not necessarily ”a color of the year”) and you will always look radiant. Be clean and you will look good. You can choose an urban bohemian style, if that suits you and your lifestyle - not extra-polished, but may be as difficult to achieve (to look like you are fresh out of bed yet not sloppy). And I started from someone calling a lady ”over-aged”. Rudeness never makes a woman attractive or beautiful.
❤ I really like that you show the outfit that needs improving first, and then easy ways to update it. Thank you for giving the examples and making it easy and understandable!
Second outfit could be 'fixed' by adding a belt. I am in the 'wear what makes you happy' camp of style. No one needs to keep up with trends. Trends are not your personal style, they are the fashion industry's style. If you are happy and comfortable in what you wear, you are never 'outdated' or look 'old'. You look like you. The best advice - dress for your body type, not matter what your personal style is.
I totally agree! It’s exactly what I try to explain in all my videos. As for trends - trend injection is a way to update your wardrobe, to have fun, experiment, try something new and of course just to be aware what is actual for the moment.
I think it needs to be a mix, balance not of wearing clothes that align with your personality because it's truly a tool to express who we are from the inside and at the same time it's very important to wear clothes that flatter your body shape. Both need to be mastered by everyone!❤️
My friend and I are in our late 70’s. When we shop for clothing my friend will say “oh, no, that’s an old ladies top”. I always reply “and we don’t know any old ladies”.
I have to admit, I so dislike the cut away trend. It looks cheap and tacky, maybe for teenagers but not on classy women. Exposing so much skin does not make one look younger.
I agree that as you get older the whole "disguise your body in baggy stuff" is boring and unnecessary because looking glamorous is not just about looking shaggable. For that reason, I avoid the "let's look like I don't care and mismatch everything" trend. I prefer not to look as if I've just randomnly grabbed anything in the sale and thrown it all in at once. My clothes are considered, quality and co-ordinated items and that's what makes them classic.
I like her, she has good advice. Those comments made that they dont mind looking old, curious as to why you are watching if you don't care? Good tips, thank you .
Thank you for the comparisons and how to upgrade an outfit. I wasn't into fashion at all when I was younger - more of the beatnik/intellectual type, or the yoga/natural phase. In the past few years, I have become interested, and youtube has made fashion expertise readily available. I love accessories the most. I appreciate your comments on this topic!
Unlike negative (or skeptical or dismissive) commenters, I greatly appreciate this helpfully informative video, and I have no problem with the channel's approach to and attitude toward looking older. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being older and looking it, but why why not be conscious of the differing impressions that certain shapes and color combinations create? Why unknowingly exaggerate looking older, when it's just as easy and comfy not to look older? I find that this video immediately empowers me to take basic actions without purchasing a single thing, even though I don't possess this person's physique, and never will. Clothes and style don't make the person, but my experience here in NYC repeatedly reminds me that my style DRASTICALLY affects the impression I make out there among strangers, and also among friends. When my style is, let's say, sharper, the vibe directed at me is simply more positive. As for the impression that others' appearance makes upon me, I don't go around noticing negatives, as people's humanity is more important to me than their appearance. But I DO notice positives -- a fresh haircut, a flattering top, a cool bag, an overall "together" look, etc. Over the holidays (Dec. 2022), the rare sight of a beautifully attired older couple one evening on the subway was so striking that I interrupted them to compliment them, and when I did, it turned out that the rest of our end of the subway car agreed with me -- because they all started complimenting the couple, too. I mean, just by their look (I wish I had taken a photo!) they made such a positive contribution to the well-being of me and my fellow subway travellers. It wasn't that they were ostentatious. It was rather that they were put together -- both individually and as a pair -- with a few special notes that made their overall appearance sing, as it were. Anyway. Thank you, channel, for your video. I appreciate it!
Thank you for sharing your great tips. I can’t wait to try it out. Your suggestions remind me of what a graphic design instructor once said to me when I was a student. He said the only two concepts to remember in design is harmony and tension. That is what I’m taking away from your video.
Your videos are so informative. I really learn a lot from you. All of these outfits look so nice on you. The clothing is beautiful and you have a perfect figure. If you could show some examples of ladies with different body types it would be greatly appreciated.
I would really appreciate that as well. I have full bust and I'm high-waisted. I wear tops untucked and beltless, but things can go matronly very quickly where there is too much fabric/volume on top.
This video was incredibly helpful. I found myself saying “Wow!” probably way too often (am I really doing so many things wrong? Lol) as you showed the transformation of an outfit that can be achieved w just few tweaks. As a petite woman just over 50, would love to see what you could do style-wise for us shorter girls with athletic build: I’m always hoping to look more feminine, and elongate my frame/legs.
Thank you! So glad it was helpful! As for videos for petite I am planning to do videos with women of different heights and shape. My first one is planned for next week! 😀
This video is for ladies who have a taste of beauty or want to learn about it. Some people don't have it and don't see the harmony of things around us. It is OK. But I like the beautiful and clever design of things in my house and my clothing style. Thanks for this video.
It’s not about how to look younger, more how to look your best by not dressing the way that makes you look dated and older than you are. I think we live in such a beautiful time that women are not age limited anymore, and I a lot of women show how you can look fabulous and feel super confident and inspired at any age, it’s really motivating. Totally agree with ur approach on positive thinking 🤗
Thank you for the style update tips. I think they are especially good for a taller, thinner body type. I love the little brown bag style purse and the short heeled sling backs. Sling backs are hard to walk in, because they tend to flip flop in the back, but are so cute! Where I live, slit shoulder tops are already out, but perhaps they are sill fashionable where you live? I've been able to "fix" a couple of slit shoulder tops I found on the sales rack by simply sewing up the slits. It doesn't work for every top, but if there's enough material in the shoulder, you can sometimes get a nice top at a very low price!
Really enjoyed this! I love watching street styles from style capitals around the world. As a linguist, can I point out that the word 'hack' is a cheap word. Like teaming polyester with silk. There is a fabulous word, one that inspires, and that is the word IDEAS! Yes! A truly creative word. Leave the word 'hack' where it belongs, in scatalogical ads and cheap tricks. You are beyond that.
This all looks so great, however, my face sure doesn’t look that young, never will now. Everything was shown on women who do not have the “mature” figure that most of us have. My body is never going to look that way again. None of those clothes would look good on a petite person unless they were made proportional in the first place. A mini skirt at our ages? Not that many of us could would try to do that. Gucci bag?😂😂 I prefer to have food on the table. All of this is lovely, but this is not for a lot of our real worlds, only for women who can afford it and move in those circles. Where I can afford to shop, what is available there makes it extremely difficult to follow these rules. I loved watching this, but would appreciate some real world make overs. I’ll get downvoted and negative replies, so be it.
Lynn, you are absolutely right. I am not going to fight my age by wearing mini-skirts or cold-shoulder tops. But if I dress for my 5'2" rectangular shape, keep up good haircut, use minimal makeup, and follow some classic rules, I can style get compliments well into my 80s.
@@AllergicToFantasy I thought I was the only one who actually loved some "wrong" looks.. In my opinion she doesn't look bad in any of "outdated" examples, just more relaxed and less sophisticated yet that's not necessary a bad thing.
I wear skirts that come to my knees, not mini, and I have good legs. But I think mini skirts don't look elegant. As for designer bags, I refuse to spend that kind of money - you can get a nice bag in an attractive style for little money. It's about the shape of the bag. I also shop second-hand - stores and online - lots of great clothing being sold by people. The only thing I buy new anymore is shoes.
Ladies I’m up there too, but this video didn’t say it was for older women. When we watch these videos we have to realize they are for younger women too not just us over 50. There are a lot of older women who do these videos you can watch that wear clothes for older women. Just take the good advice you get from all of them and combine them.
Hello Diana. In this video you have an amazing light blue cable knit sweater in look 3, I can’t find the link in your comments to purchase it. Can you please let me know where you got it ? Thank you 😊
I’m 62 and I think the worst item sold to my age group is a long, tunic length top, shirt or sweater. About 20 years ago I purged all of mine and instantly looked better-proprtioned, thinner and younger. I tuck in all my tops and don’t wear those long sweaters, either. I like “cropped” ones, they just cover my waistband, because I’m short. Also, any capri pants must go.
@@EvangeliseGood I think a lot of us in our age group were taught something about covering the groin area as some kind of "modesty"??? especially with pants ... but it is not a look that ages well. I think wearing clothes that fit well rather than hanging loosely is just a better look all round.
I just lost 50 lb. Now I don't want to wear tunics anymore, but they're everywhere and it's hard to find something I can tuck in or something that doesn't cover my whole butt when I'm wearing jeans. I'm 67 btw. After years of wearing long skirts and tunics, I'm having trouble finding casual clothes that show off my weight loss in a positive way.
Love your video and your styling suggestions and color choices! You rocked every outfit. It’s always good to be our best and healthiest selves at any age. Forever young. Thank you!
I am enjoying your videos. I am hopeless at styling and look daggy..I used to dress nicely, but a changing body and age I honestly have no idea. I've hit my 50s and the meno belly...I've given up. Your tutorials are inspirational...
Great tips and outfit suggestions. It is so important to know how to dress your shape in a flattering way and what colors look best on you, to align the clothes we wear to our personality! I am so happy that all my closets are aligned with me that way it's easy for me to maximize my outfits!
Hi very nice suggestions. I personally not into open shoulder blouses sweater or dresses I think looks not refine for my taste. Jeans and dress slacks don’t wear either. 💕💃🏾
Thanks, some great tips. Do you have links to the black maxi with slits and your newer cream/ivory maxi dress with interesting short, stick-out sleeves?
Funny thing is that I felt like many styles you've shown still look great and are maybe just way more casual and easygoing. but the improved styles are just so on point and very valid. Probably I just love an easygoing style. But I see what is not working with it, so thanks :D eyeopening
@@sulusu4812 That is so very true, if you're not skinny, clothes like what she wears, or nice clothes for that matter, will not look good. I'm overweight with a hanging belly that never shrunk after I had my second child 25 years ago and genetics gave me a big bum. It's extremely difficult to find something that looks nice, because it doesn't, and the tendency is to cover up because tighter or shorter clothes don't look good. I had lost over twenty pounds and, up until a month ago, had went on a clothes spending spree because needed smaller clothes and felt confident that I looked better. Then the holidays happened and sweets and all good food things. Guess what, gained it all back and what I bought I can't wear because it's now tight or doesn't look right anymore. So yes, being thinner does matter and back to hiding behind my old baggy clothes and staying locked in at home, good thing I work from home and don't have to embarrass myself. I have no desire to go out, even to get groceries, because everything hangs out and am out of breath by the time I get inside the store from the parking lot. Having the fat gene, even when was thin at one point in my life, makes it a struggle because anything I eat makes me gain a large amount of weight in weeks. This lady on the video is lucky to have the skinny gene. You have no idea the struggle so don't comment that being skinny is stuck on us.
J Benny I do not agree .A number of thin ladies do not look good in tight fitting clothes and a casual observer might remark that they need a square meal. Why encourage people to become obsessed with being thin when it is actually an unattractive look. My role model would be the Duchess of Edinburgh who always looks lovely but is a sensible weight and Queen Camilla is also a good size ie neither fat or excessively thin.
Dianna you look beautiful! I love your ideas, but, I am not slim like you and yet I am 200lbs and I get all bloated at the midriff. My waist is my problem. Can you give ideas for that type of body. Sincerely Trish ❤.
There was nothing wrong with the boots and bag in the last outfit; they just didn't go with the dress because they're too heavy. They would look great with a pair of jeans and a more casual look. Chelsea boots never go out of style! Trends aren't a gateway to looking good; you should wear what suits you and your own style (if you are fortunate enough to have found it - I haven't). Everything looks good on Diana, including the lovely orange jumper.
Trends are not anyone's personal style. They are the fashion industry's style. Wear what makes you happy, dress for your body type and you will look fabby.
Had a total hip replacement in October and will need another in February. Tired of wearing sneakers !!!! Where can I purchase your riding boots and are they available in wide width ??
Looking back, my biggest mistake in the past was adding wrong accessories to an outfit. I remember looking in a mirror and being puzzled of why a brand new outfit looked wrong on me? And it was simply because the bag or the shoes were outdated, and as a cherry on the top I could have added some boho or vintage jewellery to "kill the look"... I will be forever thankfull for all the knowledge acquired on your courses! 🥰
Thank you for sharing Viorica! Boho vintage jewelry is indeed very common reason to make the outfit look dated. Of course there are also stylish pieces but I understand exactly which ones you’re talking about))
I love the tips, but where you mentioned the pop of colours and how to choose those colours, that's where I get confused. Is it just trial and error (how you found cool tones suit you) or is there a way that you figure that out? This has always been my biggest challenge x
Go with your feelings and remember that below the waist you can wear any color. I wear white pants in summer but not white near my face unless I have another color (pop of color) that I think looks good near my face too,
Hi Diana, just found your channel. Thank you for your advice. You say, in your video, not to wear long tops/jacket with long skirt or baggy pants, why does two of your "great" outfits pictures have that look? You are correct, with these examples the "good" pictures look better than "great".
Am entering 70s next year. Decided in my teens about my old age & dress traditional whenever in doubt. You are admired eternally in Asia in your traditional dresses & colours. We kind of despise false eternal youth philosophy. We deeply rever maturity & wisdom above all.....whether you are one year or century old.!
Hello, new sub here! I would love to know what is your color season type in the 12 types, please.I think we are the same so I can match from your color choice but not sure, thank you! 😊
One of the joys of getting older is being happy with being comfy. Also not giving a hoot... I love being in my fifties. I have a style I've been working towards and have the time for op shopping and cash for signature pieces. Always remember the quote, but not who said it, Fashion is for people who have no taste!
The Row has a very structured silhouette or mix relaxed with structured, which is exactly what I am talking in the video. I love oversized clothes, just don’t wear it head-to-toe.
In my opinion, the clothes are wearing the Olsen sisters, not the other way around. Their style doesn’t look balanced and flattering. Take away the celebrity status and I bet you people would describe them as frumpy.
I am always grateful for suggestions that can help me to look the 'best me'. If you are comfortable with how you look, then why are you watching this video with the heading that it has? I don't feel this is 'fashion police' ideas, just suggestions to look the best you can. If you are comfortable with how look, then good for you, watch something else then. I need all the help I can get- take from this what works for me, and discard the rest. Thank you Diana for your suggestions.
I am 71 but I like looking younger. I lived for years looking older. I do lean toward comfort though. This is a good video and helpful. The orange top definitely explains warm and cool tones. I am very into wearing colors flattering to my undertone. Makes me feel good.

Well at 71 years old, I am finding I am not as concerned about looking younger. I am struggling with not being able to do the things I did when I was younger.
..it's not about looking younger, it's about NOT looking boring and sloppy; it means giving beauty to the world even we are already an over aged.
@@parishadnz.6048 , there is no such thing as ”over aged”. (I could say everyone who is under my age is ”under-aged”. ) On the other hand, style is not a matter of trends. I see so many boring, yet very trendy, uniforms in the street that it makes me yawn (and laugh sometimes). The beauty a woman brings in the world is not about clothes and makeup. A woman can shine through any clothes if she is happy and fulfilled. As to this film, the clothes Diana does not agree with are like that mainly because they create a disbalance in proportions or do not fit in terms of color. Not coordinating is something else.
It is when you don't care about your age anymore that you shine the most. Being hootless and free makes you irresistible, even at 70! being self-conscious about aging and trying to fight it makes it worse. This said, stay fit, thin, eat clean and well and watch your posture.
@@vilmaschambersIt's all very subjective. For instance, in my world, "cold shoulders" is considered tacky. Ditto, skirts and dresses with long splits.

Hello Patricia
How are you doing today?
Thx for the advice- sometimes I think I get stuck wearing too loose to hide any “flaws” I think I have !
Second outfit could be 'fixed' by adding a belt. I am in the 'wear what makes you happy' camp of style. No one needs to keep up with trends. Trends are not your personal style, they are the fashion industry's style. If you are happy and comfortable in what you wear, you are never 'outdated' or look 'old'. You look like you.

@@AllergicToFantasy I thought I was the only one who actually loved some "wrong" looks.. In my opinion she doesn't look bad in any of "outdated" examples, just more relaxed and less sophisticated yet that's not necessary a bad thing.
I wear skirts that come to my knees, not mini, and I have good legs. But I think mini skirts don't look elegant. As for designer bags, I refuse to spend that kind of money - you can get a nice bag in an attractive style for little money. It's about the shape of the bag. I also shop second-hand - stores and online - lots of great clothing being sold by people. The only thing I buy new anymore is shoes.
Totally agree with everything you said 👍
Ladies I’m up there too, but this video didn’t say it was for older women. When we watch these videos we have to realize they are for younger women too not just us over 50. There are a lot of older women who do these videos you can watch that wear clothes for older women. Just take the good advice you get from all of them and combine them.
Hello Diana. In this video you have an amazing light blue cable knit sweater in look 3, I can’t find the link in your comments to purchase it. Can you please let me know where you got it ? Thank you 😊
I’m 62 and I think the worst item sold to my age group is a long, tunic length top, shirt or sweater. About 20 years ago I purged all of mine and instantly looked better-proprtioned, thinner and younger. I tuck in all my tops and don’t wear those long sweaters, either. I like “cropped” ones, they just cover my waistband, because I’m short. Also, any capri pants must go.
I love tunic tops, but they only really look good if you're wearing them with leggings... Otherwise, save them for around the house... Lol
Also 62 and recently learned the ‘tuck in’ with jumpers and shirts, really helped me look taller, smarter and bit more edge. Well IMHO 😂
@@EvangeliseGood I think a lot of us in our age group were taught something about covering the groin area as some kind of "modesty"??? especially with pants ... but it is not a look that ages well.
I think wearing clothes that fit well rather than hanging loosely is just a better look all round.
I just lost 50 lb. Now I don't want to wear tunics anymore, but they're everywhere and it's hard to find something I can tuck in or something that doesn't cover my whole butt when I'm wearing jeans. I'm 67 btw. After years of wearing long skirts and tunics, I'm having trouble finding casual clothes that show off my weight loss in a positive way.
It's so good that you know what looks best on you!
How I love all of these dresses on you! ❤️ I do some of mistakes you’ve mentioned, and now I see what’s wrong)
Thank you, sweetie! 😘
I’ve just discovered your channel and I love it! You’re very stylish and love your outfits, congrats Diana!
Excellent explanation, I couldn’t have done it better. It’s not always easy to say exactly what the problems are and why. Nicely done!
Love your video and your styling suggestions and color choices! You rocked every outfit. It’s always good to be our best and healthiest selves at any age. Forever young. Thank you!
Diana, I love your hair color, do you know what product they use on you? Thanks
I am enjoying your videos. I am hopeless at styling and look daggy..I used to dress nicely, but a changing body and age I honestly have no idea. I've hit my 50s and the meno belly...I've given up.
Your tutorials are inspirational...
love the white top with long sleeves and off the shoulder
I love this video. great job. I love that white shoulder-off sweater top! can I have the link or where did you get it from? thank you!!
Ok love it! I’m going to take all that advice and use it with my quirky ish style! Wonderful, thanks!
Just love what you are wearing, with the open shoulders…I didn’t find where to buy on of those?
Hi Diana! Can you please post a link to that BEAUTIFUL green turtleneck sweater you are wearing in the color section please?
Great tips and outfit suggestions. It is so important to know how to dress your shape in a flattering way and what colors look best on you, to align the clothes we wear to our personality! I am so happy that all my closets are aligned with me that way it's easy for me to maximize my outfits!
I am learning a great deal from your videos, thank you! 🙂
Love the video. So informative!!! Totally agree with oversized head to toe, doesn’t work well
Thank you Lena! I appreciate it!
Love your style tips for any age to take on board. At 74 I’m lucky to be here and find the ageist Older description to describe us insulting.
Hi very nice suggestions. I personally not into open shoulder blouses sweater or dresses I think looks not refine for my taste. Jeans and dress slacks don’t wear either. 💕💃🏾
Am I the only one who thinks that a number of the "before" outfits look classier and more elegant that the "after" versions?
Those boots are fantastic! You’re stunning!
Was just introduced to your channel with this video & I loved it! New subscriber!
Диана браво,ваш english is just fantastic 😊😊😊
Thank you for sharing your style expertise. Loved the taupe and blue sweaters. Can you put a link to purchase?
Thank you, Marilyn! I bought them last season, I hope I can still find them and link them in the infobox.
Hi Diana...even if you can't find a link for the taupe sweater, could you share the designer/brand? I LOVE it!!! ❤️
Thank you so much !
Very helpful thank you. Fashion can be timeless but at times it can be confusing.
I just love your videos, so informative and helpful! 😊
Hello Tamara
How are you doing today?
I am curious where you bought the colourful sweaters? (especially the light mint one)They are so hard to find.
Interested in knowing who made the last dress you are wearing - it’s fantastic! Thanks!
Wow, I added this video to my collection to watch it later, from time to time!
How do I figure out my colors?
Love this video! Love the maxi skirt with the double slits and crisp white shirt!! Can you share the link of where to purchase?
What is your opinion of wedge shoes and boots? Keep for another season or get rid of?
Diana, your style is my goal!!
Thanks, some great tips. Do you have links to the black maxi with slits and your newer cream/ivory maxi dress with interesting short, stick-out sleeves?
Expert advice regardless of age. Thank you.
Funny thing is that I felt like many styles you've shown still look great and are maybe just way more casual and easygoing. but the improved styles are just so on point and very valid. Probably I just love an easygoing style. But I see what is not working with it, so thanks :D eyeopening
Of course you can look fabulous in anything ….when you are thin & 85 pounds.
We age & grow, but somehow the self concept of not looking good unless you're thin has stuck on you (& others). Time to let that go love.
And not almost 6ft tall and curvy.
@@roselarouge9107 that's pretty simple- this TH-camr obviously doesn't cover that much unfortunately. .....but there's a lot that do. 🌟🌟💗
@@sulusu4812 That is so very true, if you're not skinny, clothes like what she wears, or nice clothes for that matter, will not look good. I'm overweight with a hanging belly that never shrunk after I had my second child 25 years ago and genetics gave me a big bum. It's extremely difficult to find something that looks nice, because it doesn't, and the tendency is to cover up because tighter or shorter clothes don't look good. I had lost over twenty pounds and, up until a month ago, had went on a clothes spending spree because needed smaller clothes and felt confident that I looked better. Then the holidays happened and sweets and all good food things. Guess what, gained it all back and what I bought I can't wear because it's now tight or doesn't look right anymore. So yes, being thinner does matter and back to hiding behind my old baggy clothes and staying locked in at home, good thing I work from home and don't have to embarrass myself. I have no desire to go out, even to get groceries, because everything hangs out and am out of breath by the time I get inside the store from the parking lot. Having the fat gene, even when was thin at one point in my life, makes it a struggle because anything I eat makes me gain a large amount of weight in weeks. This lady on the video is lucky to have the skinny gene. You have no idea the struggle so don't comment that being skinny is stuck on us.
J Benny I do not agree .A number of thin ladies do not look good in tight fitting clothes and a casual observer might remark that they need a square meal. Why encourage people to become obsessed with being thin when it is actually an unattractive look.
My role model would be the Duchess of Edinburgh who always looks lovely but is a sensible weight and Queen Camilla is also a good size ie neither fat or excessively thin.
Dianna you look beautiful! I love your ideas, but, I am not slim like you and yet I am 200lbs and I get all bloated at the midriff. My waist is my problem. Can you give ideas for that type of body.
Sincerely Trish ❤.
There was nothing wrong with the boots and bag in the last outfit; they just didn't go with the dress because they're too heavy. They would look great with a pair of jeans and a more casual look. Chelsea boots never go out of style!
Trends aren't a gateway to looking good; you should wear what suits you and your own style (if you are fortunate enough to have found it - I haven't).
Everything looks good on Diana, including the lovely orange jumper.
Trends are not anyone's personal style. They are the fashion industry's style. Wear what makes you happy, dress for your body type and you will look fabby.
Agree. She looked good in the baggy clothes. Very Italian designer style I thought.
@@gusmonster59 I would always be wearing cool colors for sure!
Had a total hip replacement in October and will need another in February. Tired of wearing sneakers !!!! Where can I purchase your riding boots and are they available in wide width ??
Looking back, my biggest mistake in the past was adding wrong accessories to an outfit. I remember looking in a mirror and being puzzled of why a brand new outfit looked wrong on me? And it was simply because the bag or the shoes were outdated, and as a cherry on the top I could have added some boho or vintage jewellery to "kill the look"... I will be forever thankfull for all the knowledge acquired on your courses! 🥰
Thank you for sharing Viorica! Boho vintage jewelry is indeed very common reason to make the outfit look dated. Of course there are also stylish pieces but I understand exactly which ones you’re talking about))
New subscriber! Love your statement pieces. I’m tired of blazers over a top being shown as stylish attire.
Please add a link as to where you purchased your clothes. Especially the beautiful sweaters!
If you don't mind looking older, or you want to wear what makes you comfortable, WHY ARE YOU EVEN WATCHING THIS VIDEO??
Loved the examples with updated accessories the best!
Glad to hear!
Thank you so much for the tips, beautiful lady!
Thank you! ☺️
@@dianagoss Thank you. I found your suggestions universal and applicable in the mens wardrobe, too. There never too many examples to learn from.
So glad I found you. Love the content and look forward to viewing more.
Diana, you have great style! You definitely know fashion 😊
The video “tips tips on not looking older” inspired me to buy a handbag with a bright solid colour! 😄
Wonderful tips. Thank you Diana.
I love the tips, but where you mentioned the pop of colours and how to choose those colours, that's where I get confused. Is it just trial and error (how you found cool tones suit you) or is there a way that you figure that out? This has always been my biggest challenge x
Look up 'Color Me Beautiful'. It explains all of that.
@@sparrowgael Good advice!
Go with your feelings and remember that below the waist you can wear any color. I wear white pants in summer but not white near my face unless I have another color (pop of color) that I think looks good near my face too,
Newly subscribed. Great advice thanks
Agree 100% with you. I’m 54 and I don’t care what’s in fashion I wear what accentuates my figure and colours that don’t make me look washed
You are such a great help to all of us….thank you!!!
Glad you liked it! Thank you! 🤗
Although the video shows this, choice of sleeves make a difference too. Nice video
Hi Diana, just found your channel. Thank you for your advice. You say, in your video, not to wear long tops/jacket with long skirt or baggy pants, why does two of your "great" outfits pictures have that look? You are correct, with these examples the "good" pictures look better than "great".
I’m 62 and knows what makes me confident and happy, wear anything that makes you HAPPY 🎉
Thanks for this video! It's very useful and I have the same body shape as you!😃
I'm sorry but that orange shirt looked gorgeous on you!
Hahaha! Thank u! It’s my husband’s))
Agree! I liked the orange sweater/shirt on her with her coloring..
Informative...i found I agreed with everything you pointed out! Helpful, thanks.
My style is what ever I can be bothered to put on in the morning and do I need to iron it!! 🤣😂
Am entering 70s next year. Decided in my teens about my old age & dress traditional whenever in doubt. You are admired eternally in Asia in your traditional dresses & colours. We kind of despise false eternal youth philosophy. We deeply rever maturity & wisdom above all.....whether you are one year or century old.!
Thanks for all those great tips, you're boss!!
You have a wonderful figure show someone lumpy and bumpy!
Where did you get that off shoulders white top? It’s so nice
Hello, new sub here! I would love to know what is your color season type in the 12 types, please.I think we are the same so I can match from your color choice but not sure, thank you! 😊
One of the joys of getting older is being happy with being comfy. Also not giving a hoot... I love being in my fifties. I have a style I've been working towards and have the time for op shopping and cash for signature pieces. Always remember the quote, but not who said it, Fashion is for people who have no taste!
Where is that white off the shoulder top from in the second look? Adorable.
Men luv cold shoulder and cut out tops!!
I bet they do))
The ladies who founded the iconic The Row brand would disagree…all oversized can be fabulous if done correctly
Agree I love baggy
The Row has a very structured silhouette or mix relaxed with structured, which is exactly what I am talking in the video. I love oversized clothes, just don’t wear it head-to-toe.
In my opinion, the clothes are wearing the Olsen sisters, not the other way around. Their style doesn’t look balanced and flattering. Take away the celebrity status and I bet you people would describe them as frumpy.
Key words: IF APPLIED CORRECTLY!! Too many apply size and length incorrectly 🤷♀️
Something in them doesn’t look fresh. Maybe it’s wrong colors they are wearing for their complexions.
I am always grateful for suggestions that can help me to look the 'best me'. If you are comfortable with how you look, then why are you watching this video with the heading that it has? I don't feel this is 'fashion police' ideas, just suggestions to look the best you can. If you are comfortable with how look, then good for you, watch something else then. I need all the help I can get- take from this what works for me, and discard the rest. Thank you Diana for your suggestions.
Love your videos. Please let us know where this white sweater dress if from. How can we get it?
Thank you! 🤗I bought it via LUISAVIAROMA, but don’t really remember the brand .
I am 71 but I like looking younger. I lived for years looking older. I do lean toward comfort though. This is a good video and helpful. The orange top definitely explains warm and cool tones. I am very into wearing colors flattering to my undertone. Makes me feel good.
