Hi my lovelies! This is a tongue in cheek spring style tips video!! Obviously there are no 'rules' always do you as I alway say! Have a good weekend!! Also I'm going to pin one of the below comments so I'll be reading! Take care! Karen x
I just loved this vídeo Karen..you made me giggle with the t-shirt thing. It was..so..90's..I always hated those stupid small sleeves..It never gave me the cool vibe I wanted because I had a thick upper arm..don't miss that one for sure!!! 😘😘😘
I’m pushing 70 and I love my cowboy boots and jeans jacket and all the compliments I get when I wear them! However, I don’t think it’s the clothes, rather it’s the happiness I express when I wear the things I love.
I just turned seventy and I find I get compliments when I wear whatever makes me feel good because I think you have more confidence . As long as it fits you right and is flattering to your body go for it.
i'm going to be 66 next week and i love my doc martens. i change up the shoelaces and throw a crystal ankle bracelet with a charm on one. and at the beginning of the pandemic, i decided to stop dying my hair but didn't want to cut it off, so i'm growing it out and i'm loving the process. it's just who i am! i love women who own their style. i'm proud to be one of them!
I am SO with you on the "age appropriate" debate and tired of people saying what you should or shouldn't wear, based on your age. I am 75 and I know what looks good on me and what doesn't!! There is no age limit to great style 💖
Triss333 wear what the hell you. Who care what people say. Most of them are people pleaser and have low self esteem and maybe boring. I say do you always life is to short not to be you. Much love to yah.❤❤❤👍😊🌼
I love you. So tired of seeing all these influencers and their tone deaf hauls, all buying and showing the exact same things while further feeding this fast fashion environmentally impactful beast. You are a beautiful breath of fresh air and I enjoy watching your content
I'm about to turn 55 and have been having a bit of a style crisis. This video was just what I needed to hear. My mom's generation was expected to cut their hair and wear stretchy pants and no makeup at 40. Thanks Karen!
Oleta I'm turning 55 in May and nobody believe my age. I wear whatever I want as long it suits my menopausic body!! 😆 I wear long hair, I love bold make up, I wear red and brigh fucksia lipstick, Bold earrings, I wear jeans and trainers and leather jackets..life is short and I pay my bills..I ran away of ridiculousness..but I really don't care what others think about what a woman of my age should do, act, be, look..let's break the stigma..much love from Portugal!!! 😘😘
I was recently looking at pictures ofc my grandmother and great grandmother from the 1970s. They look 20 years older than what they actually were. I’m 44 now and my grandmother was on her late 30s in the pics. I look so much younger now than she did. It was their hair, clothes, makeup, and eye wear that aged them so, so much. I can’t imagine just saying “Oh well, I’ll “old” now so don’t need to look good”. 🙄
@@anaguerra7337 well I'm 70 and the only thing I steer clear of are high heels and mini skirts and hair below my shoulders! My biggest annoyance is swimwear. I've never owned a swimsuit. What's the difference whether you show your midriff or not! The best way to keep enjoying fashion is to maintain your weight as you get older.
I'm 50 and still wearing short skirts, as I keep my slim figure. I didn't cut my hair, but changed the color to look more light, soft, and natural. I'm definitely not wearing girly things, black things, and I'm very carefull about the colors - wearing more bright and light colors and smaller prints. The body is changing, we have to find the balance of course, but finding your best colors is very very important - life changing. I keep my eye on trends but yeat I have my own style.. here and there I incorporate something trendy... mix it with my style.
Yea I realized that after turning 30. Until then, I believed I had to dress in a certain way when you are over 30, 40 or 50. But no! Just wear what fits you best. You wanna wear a mini skirt? Go for it! You wanna wear a baby pink sweater? Hell yea! Wear it!! Just smile at whoever tries to tell you you can’t wear x, y and z because you decide what you wear and not them!
N Doucette: Me too! 75 in June and I’ve had more fun with clothes in the last ten years than I’ve had since the Twiggy, Mary Quant days in the 60’s! Dressing up and wearing all my colourful Converse and flat forms makes me ridiculously happy! Stay safe!
Lionel Richie, Jurassic Park nails, Zara models, women's T shirts.....made me laugh so much🤣🤣🤣🤣then Michael arrives with food to calm you down!!Thanks Karen. 🙏🤣
@@KarenBritChick Absolutely loved this Karen!!! Completely agree with everything you said!Life's too short, you do you and don't fall under those traps! Loved that Michael made a cameo appearance at the end with food and your reaction...priceless!! Those braids look amazing on you by the way!. Have a fab weekend! ;)
... I have been dressing up with nowhere to go! I honestly don't care... I want to enjoy my wardrobe so even if it's to the grocery store... So be it! LOL! #unapologetic
Me, too. I could only stand loungewear for two months of lockdown. Now I wear real outfits every day. It helps that all my clothes are comfortable, anyway.
Omg! Thank you! I have gotten stink eye when dressed well when I’m out. It’s like everyone is using the panny as an excuse to look like shit. Dressing nice when I do go out is all I have these days. I’m doing it!
I dress up even to the grocery store. I just do it for me. My self care moments . Heck what’s the point of buying and not ever wearing them.... by the time lock down is down some people are gonna realize that none of the clothes fit because they’ve be comfortable all through out in sweats . Sometimes it’s good to switch it up a bit. 🤷🏾♀️ maybe I 🤔
@@Li-Amor Indeed!!! I believe getting pretty is part of self care as well. and it does assist in making sure you can still fit those clothes!!!! Lol.... nothing like a reality check on how we are eating than to put on something thatvdoesnt have an elastic waist! Taheeeeeeeeeeee
Finally after years of setting with my wardrobe I have a wardrobe I love. I’m 45 and 80% most of my wardrobe is vintage or from small business. I love your style!
at 61 i actually do appreciate what to wear for my age tips. cuz, i can clearly see that what i used to wear no longer suits me, and i appreciate the age appropriate suggestions. otherwise i'd look like a fool. and i also defend the rights of others to wear what they want, when they want. Carry On Karen, love your content!
In my case, I can get away with wearing crop tops when I’m already 47 because I’m petite and I look like I’m only 27.Lol It’s genetics. When I was in high school, I used to be insecure about looking too young because kids used to tease me about being an elementary school kid getting lost in a high school. Now that I’m older, I appreciate looking way younger than I am.Lol
@@jilianemorales2074 I'm only in my mid 30s and I totally get what you mean, I've been petite my whole life, it pissed me off to no end in my mid teens to mid 20s, once I got to my 30s I began to appreciate and accept being taken for a younger woman as a compliment, I always look 10years younger than my real age. While I do appreciate fashion, I believe in having a classic wardrobe, these days I now find longer Lenght more appropriate for wear
The Olsen twins are another example of petite girls mastering oversize pieces, by the way your Zara pose is on point LOL, and one more thing your hair looks great I like the variation showing your pretty face.
The Olsen twins are the OG of oversized everything. I remember when people made fun of their style ‘granny’ but they definitely where on to something big.
I am so glad that you mentioned man-made materials. Folks make me begin to sweat watching them in those hot polyester tops and dresses in the spring and summer 😞.
I totally agree regarding categorizing by age!! This one ticks me off! I will be 61 years old tomorrow (GODWilling) and I wear my Doc Martens, Patent/Leather, Funky Sunnies and whatever prints I want cuz I enjoy it and it's my business!! By the way, i mentioned before that I watch a lot of fashion vids and your name is always mentioned...Well Cuddlepill mentioned you in her latest vid! Check her out!
HAVE FUN WITH FASHION! We are all as “young” as we will ever be! Wear whatever makes you feel beautiful, powerful, confident, comfortable and MOST OF ALL.........HAPPY! 😊
Your style is so transcendent. Ive been OP shopping and Army disposal frequenting since being a teenager in the 70’s and Annie Hall. Used to buy the British Vogue and have is shipped to Australia- then we were 6 months ahead. Yay you. Xxxx
Omg so first, the braids are gorge! Love the tips, agreed your style is your style at any age (I am secretly obsessed with Alt), agreed sweaty feet in plastic shoes ain’t it, and finally Mr. Michael is a keeper... bringing you lunch. Love!
Thanks for the reminder about my toes. It has been over a year since my last pedicure. Ha! I need to get on that before it warms up enough for open toe shoes.
Thanks for the tips Karen. I agree with the spring florals, yuck! I’m doing a pink and red chevron shirt today and I feel vibrant and springy! Cheers to another great video!
Love it! FINALLY someone that is thematising judging others by age. This is one of the greatest social prejudices and stupidities. It is high time to ban the category of "age" with which people only restricted themselves and others. I deleted the word "old" from my vocabulary and never use it towards other people. Thank you 🌹
My biggest spring mistake is forgetting to layer --- including an intentional oversized tote to carry items I remove enroute due to weather changes. Scarves, scarves, scarves to go from neck to waist or tote handle. I like to have several choices of raincoat, and umbrella or rain hat so the total outfit makes sense. There is something about spring that makes me feel like tieing a scarf under my chin with oversized sunglasses.
I definitely won't be avoiding trainers this spring. I just bought the Fila Orbit Stripe in pink and white. It looks great with the little tank dress I got from Free People. Trainers with dresses... my latest obsession. 😁 Love your videos, Karen.
Love the braids Karen! I do not dress my age & one reason is my daughter will not allow me too! You have inspired me to let go of age and have a great time with fashion Karen! Fantastic video Karen!
have been watching you for years, i love the way you play with clothes and how it makes me feel more able to embody that energy also :) could u do a 101 video on visiting a tailor? e.g what kinds of things the tailor can do, what you would consider getting tailored, what kind of things they've fixed (buttons, seams, denim(?) etc) for you in the past x
My favourite blazer is a vintage Armani Men I got for £40 from a charity shop near Waterloo Station 😍 I know what I like, what suits me and I do shop in men departments 👍
How gorgeous is the Missoma jewellery!!! I went to look on their website, so beautiful! Also your blazer is no. 1 thing that I want now. You look so beautiful with your hair like this too, I love it! Also really like the way you talk here and the things you say: you are empowering us!
The fabric thing is something I’ve been paying attention to for 30 years. I live in the South where summers are beastly and I’m drenched in sweat as soon as I step outside. Polyester and rayon are the biggest offenders and there are others I’ve learned to avoid.
Hi Karen i watch you all the time and i love watching on the streets of New York seeing what people are wearing & stopping them without fear and asking about their fashion. U r so sweet & kind. I love your style and fashion. You are right about all of your info on fashion. I'm 60 & 5ft 11 1/2 inch. I wear what ever i want. I have always loved fashion since i was 11 yrs old and i love sewing. What i can't afford i make. Do u watch Monroe Steele she has great style. I will check out Brittany Bathgate & Monikh thanks for all your great advice. Hubby is so sweet to bring his lovely lady dinner.❤❤❤🌟🌟👍😊
KBC in my clothing design experience I always find myself having the talk about proper undergarments✨✨✨ This is always beneficial commentary... It's fascinating how wrong women have been known to be in this area 👏🏾💜
Lmaooo 😂😂😭 the positions of the girls from the Zara website, i' m dead 🤣. Thankkkkksss for the thing about the t-shirts and the tailored clothes !!!!! So true !! Love from France ❤️
I love current fashion. There's something for everyone in it. Colours are so much refreshing after a decade of dull neutrals. Our brain needs novelty, that's where our dopamine comes from making us happy and motivated. Fashion changes are inevitable, and it's wonderful.
So agree with you about matching shoes & bag or accessories! It is so american! In France it's almost a fashion faux pas like you are trying to hard. For me it's just a lake of imagination but there's no rule cause sometimes it works! Here's my trick concerning heels: I always make sure to have a flat & or a sneaker version for the same outfit so I feel more confident & wear them more often knowing I can change into something else that looks as good.
I did so much of this already in the 80s. Boxy jackets, men's t-shirts, high waisted stuff making my torso look miniscule. Now I just pay attentions to all the lessons I've learned about dressing me over the 50 years I've been dressing my adult body, and I avoid all the trends that were not kind to me last time I wore them. I pick up some fundamental understanding about shape, length, or cut from every decade, and no longer throw the baby out with the parachute pants. My guiding rule now is: wear what makes you feel powerful, or happy, or whatever it is that matters to you, and expresses who you are. Thanks for all the vids. Looking forward to a time when NY streets are once again a riot of style!
Loving your new videos more and more. Laugh out loud, informative, practical and as always, very interesting. Love the little Michael touches in there too. The more you are your uninhibited self, the more your work shines. Bless you xx
Thank you Karen! You can wear anything you flippen want!!! I hate labels too like senior citizen, etc. I have and always will wear anything I want. And I look nice and get compliments. AMEN 🙏 Luv Luv Luv your channel 💓 💖 💗 💛 ❤ 💕 💓
Just love your mojo and your cool, and your timeless, utter chic! You speak about fashion and style with such passion, it's infectuous! Thank you. Your capsules are gems.
Karen, you are the absolute best! I often play your vids while doing house chores etc and but may not always comment.. However, this time I had to. Thanks for noting that no matter your age, wear what you like or what makes you happy! As someone who is almost 50, I know I do not dress like most women my age and I sometimes get heat for it, so please say that again and this time even louder! LOL
@@jennymaynard3569 oh yes! Lol. I’m turning 50 in a few weeks but I’ve decided I’ll probably be 49.5 until after Rona is under control and I can finally celebrate with my loved ones 😝
You are so right about this stupid code. I am 60 today and I am fabulous I must say! I love the way I can wear so many fashions. Wear what you like and wear it well. Lockets are so much of a vibe right now and the dainty necklaces .......
I would love to see a video where U show how to make those braids, they look absolutely smashing on you. You definitely have made me wear clothes that I normally wouldn't since I started watching your channel, because you opened me eyes, so thank you 😘
Karen I enjoy your videos. Im from a small country in the Balkans- Macedonia and I inspire my style around your style and always watch out for what to buy for the upcoming season! Keep up the GREAT work!
Wearing shoes and clothes matchy matchy is like buying a whole entire matching furniture bedroom set like our parents used to do. 🚫 Also I am LOVING the chunky “ugly” dad sandals that are coming out with pretty spring dresses! I feel like those sandals take the sweetness out of the dress so it’s not so cutesy.
I so appreciate your honesty, and how worked up you got about “womens” t shirts. LOL You brought up so many valid points I had not thought of. Your honesty is so funny and REAL, I love your videos. I’ve been watching you for a couple of years now. You’re my favorite!
OMG! I talked my coworker out of buying a pair of clear shoes to go with her graduation outfit! I talked her into going with a nice nude heel! Usually I don’t tell ppl what to wear but.. she asked! 😂🤣😂❤️
My saying to myself is its not how you wear it its how you rock it that's what's in my head every time I get ready clothes for me is another expression of me all round good advice thank you for sharing.

Same here!
So true!!! I had to take a picture of your response to remember that I need to remember to dress how I want, you only live once.
I just turned seventy and I find I get compliments when I wear whatever makes me feel good because I think you have more confidence .
As long as it fits you right and is flattering to your body go for it.
Yes!!!

Love the hair either way! This looks super cute too!
Versatility.....One of the many true beauties of being a woman
Love this video!!! 😍 Last I checked I’m grown and I pay my own bills.. I’ll wear what the F*ck I want to!!!
1000% !!! This was a more tongue in cheek video too with some tips included but always do you. Always!
100!
have been watching you for years, i love the way you play with clothes and how it makes me feel more able to embody that energy also :)
could u do a 101 video on visiting a tailor? e.g what kinds of things the tailor can do, what you would consider getting tailored, what kind of things they've fixed (buttons, seams, denim(?) etc) for you in the past x
My favourite blazer is a vintage Armani Men I got for £40 from a charity shop near Waterloo Station 😍 I know what I like, what suits me and I do shop in men departments 👍
How gorgeous is the Missoma jewellery!!! I went to look on their website, so beautiful! Also your blazer is no. 1 thing that I want now. You look so beautiful with your hair like this too, I love it! Also really like the way you talk here and the things you say: you are empowering us!
Love your hair today! So fresh (and youthful) for Spring😍
The fabric thing is something I’ve been paying attention to for 30 years. I live in the South where summers are beastly and I’m drenched in sweat as soon as I step outside. Polyester and rayon are the biggest offenders and there are others I’ve learned to avoid.
Love your vibe in this video. Not just informative, you were freakin funny and you got your point across. Love it!
Hi Karen i watch you all the time and i love watching on the streets of New York seeing what people are wearing & stopping them without fear and asking about their fashion. U r so sweet & kind. I love your style and fashion. You are right about all of your info on fashion. I'm 60 & 5ft 11 1/2 inch. I wear what ever i want. I have always loved fashion since i was 11 yrs old and i love sewing. What i can't afford i make. Do u watch Monroe Steele she has great style. I will check out Brittany Bathgate & Monikh thanks for all your great advice. Hubby is so sweet to bring his lovely lady dinner.❤❤❤🌟🌟👍😊
I've never watched a style video and laughed this much!! And the editing, hilarious!! Love your videos so much!
I feel like I’m only guy that watches you. 😅 but I just love you energy and I always find inspo 💕
Oh...we know better than that!! You aren't alone!!!😊😊
KBC in my clothing design experience I always find myself having the talk about proper undergarments✨✨✨ This is always beneficial commentary... It's fascinating how wrong women have been known to be in this area 👏🏾💜
Lmaooo 😂😂😭 the positions of the girls from the Zara website, i' m dead 🤣. Thankkkkksss for the thing about the t-shirts and the tailored clothes !!!!! So true !! Love from France ❤️
You embody effortless cool style. I love this channel!!! 💜 u have inspired me to step-up my style.
I understand your point about florals. But, I giggled because I like floral so much that I wear it in winter too! Heheheee
10 seconds in and I’m already smiling 😊 💕
I love current fashion. There's something for everyone in it. Colours are so much refreshing after a decade of dull neutrals. Our brain needs novelty, that's where our dopamine comes from making us happy and motivated. Fashion changes are inevitable, and it's wonderful.
Love the hair, love this video, love you so much! Agree 100% about the undergarments and taking care of your feet! It can just ruin an outfit!
So agree with you about matching shoes & bag or accessories! It is so american! In France it's almost a fashion faux pas like you are trying to hard. For me it's just a lake of imagination but there's no rule cause sometimes it works!
Here's my trick concerning heels: I always make sure to have a flat & or a sneaker version for the same outfit so I feel more confident & wear them more often knowing I can change into something else that looks as good.
Love the braids. Chef’s kiss
I’m 63 and I wear Margaret Howell ‘boys’ t-shirts - I didn’t realise I was doing something right!!😛
"Where am I going" I felt that 👀😂
I did so much of this already in the 80s. Boxy jackets, men's t-shirts, high waisted stuff making my torso look miniscule. Now I just pay attentions to all the lessons I've learned about dressing me over the 50 years I've been dressing my adult body, and I avoid all the trends that were not kind to me last time I wore them. I pick up some fundamental understanding about shape, length, or cut from every decade, and no longer throw the baby out with the parachute pants. My guiding rule now is: wear what makes you feel powerful, or happy, or whatever it is that matters to you, and expresses who you are. Thanks for all the vids. Looking forward to a time when NY streets are once again a riot of style!
Yesss. So done with boxy jackets.
@@katemiller7874 Yeah, I can appreciate them on others, like Karen, but I don't want to wear them myself again.
This is so great Karen loved when your husband came out and gave you a salad. Michael is such a great guy. “You are working very hard”
Loving your new videos more and more. Laugh out loud, informative, practical and as always, very interesting. Love the little Michael touches in there too.
The more you are your uninhibited self, the more your work shines. Bless you xx
Lol! I asked you that question about a year ago if I was too old to wear something? Lol, you set me straight back then! Now I wear what I want 🤣
Thank you Karen! You can wear anything you flippen want!!! I hate labels too like senior citizen, etc. I have and always will wear anything I want. And I look nice and get compliments. AMEN 🙏 Luv Luv Luv your channel 💓 💖 💗 💛 ❤ 💕 💓
double amen with icing on top
I hate when they fashion for 60's , etc. I wear what I believe looks chic Thank you . Love your video as always
I'm obsessed with those braids on you! They look amazing
This was the best "get ready for spring" TH-cam I've seen🙌
Just love your mojo and your cool, and your timeless, utter chic! You speak about fashion and style with such passion, it's infectuous! Thank you. Your capsules are gems.
Love your advice, Karen! Thank you!
Karen, you crack me up, but you are sooo right! Between you and Kiva, I've had my laughs for the day.
loving the plaits
Yesss to the Fashion 101! So glad I was here for it...thank you Karen, needed it. Continued growth.
Bless!♥️✨
Karen, you are the absolute best! I often play your vids while doing house chores etc and but may not always comment.. However, this time I had to. Thanks for noting that no matter your age, wear what you like or what makes you happy! As someone who is almost 50, I know I do not dress like most women my age and I sometimes get heat for it, so please say that again and this time even louder! LOL
Yes me too
LifeWithGloreeB you are almost what 50, i followed you on IG and you don't look a day over 30.
@@jennymaynard3569 oh yes! Lol. I’m turning 50 in a few weeks but I’ve decided I’ll probably be 49.5 until after Rona is under control and I can finally celebrate with my loved ones 😝
Your braids look very elegant. The chain with a locket is such a cool idea!
Love the hairstyle. It really suits you.
You are so right about this stupid code. I am 60 today and I am fabulous I must say! I love the way I can wear so many fashions. Wear what you like and wear it well. Lockets are so much of a vibe right now and the dainty necklaces .......
252k Subscribers!!! Wow!! Congratulations Karen (and Michael)💃💃💃
I would love to see a video where U show how to make those braids, they look absolutely smashing on you. You definitely have made me wear clothes that I normally wouldn't since I started watching your channel, because you opened me eyes, so thank you 😘
I f@%ckin* love you! 🙌🏼
Aww your hubby so sweet wants to make sure his wife eats 💕 Thanks for the tips great information as always have a wonderful weekend 😊
Thanks KarenBritChick, you are always amazing!!!
I’m petite and I love wearing oversized. Everything looks big on me anyway so I have just learned to embrace it!
Love matching colours to my skin, it's more satisfying than the most fashionable clothes
Karen I enjoy your videos. Im from a small country in the Balkans- Macedonia and I inspire my style around your style and always watch out for what to buy for the upcoming season!
Keep up the GREAT work!
Wearing shoes and clothes matchy matchy is like buying a whole entire matching furniture bedroom set like our parents used to do. 🚫
Also I am LOVING the chunky “ugly” dad sandals that are coming out with pretty spring dresses! I feel like those sandals take the sweetness out of the dress so it’s not so cutesy.
I so appreciate your honesty, and how worked up you got about “womens” t shirts. LOL
You brought up so many valid points I had not thought of.
Your honesty is so funny and REAL, I love your videos. I’ve been watching you for a couple of years now. You’re my favorite!
OMG! I talked my coworker out of buying a pair of clear shoes to go with her graduation outfit! I talked her into going with a nice nude heel! Usually I don’t tell ppl what to wear but.. she asked! 😂🤣😂❤️
You should have let her be her. Wear what she feels good in.
@@katemiller7874 she asked me because she was deciding, I gave my suggestion.
And you blessed her!! Good on you...😊
My saying to myself is its not how you wear it its how you rock it that's what's in my head every time I get ready clothes for me is another expression of me all round good advice thank you for sharing.
