HI lovely friends. What are your top tips to looking current and not outdated? We'd love to hear your views in our wonderful community. Lots of love to you all. Deirdre. XX
Wear anything but with true confidence 😊 it shows in the way you hold yourself 😊
I have always felt that pulling up our bra straps to avoid a saggy chest is essential - and a good tip for a woman of any age. I know that even Rome fell, but we shouldn’t advertise the fact that we’re not as perky as we once were! 😂
Great point! XX
As a friend’s plastic surgeon said, he can’t have his patients with “Snoopie” boobs!
I do it all the time.👙
Yes, but as we age the shape of our breasts change. They may be smaller or larger. I’ve seen far too many women continue to purchase the exact same size bra throughout their lives. Instead they need to be fitted properly by an expert at a department store, or I Lingerie store. Instead of a 34B you may now need a 36.
A well fitted bra is essential.. apparently 85% of women wear incorrect bra sizes.
I love how you said " stop trying to disguise yourself in everything baggy". So true so true
Easy for her to say though when she doesn't need to hide anything as she has a slim figure
OMG, I needed to hear this so very much. I wear baggy stuff way too often, and you are absolutely right, it doesn't help me at all. thanks for another great video.
Aww, thank you so much, Maggie. I’m so pleased it was helpful. Lots of love xx
That first tip about baggy/fitted tops and bottoms was very helpful!
Thank you for all your wonderful suggestions . I would wear everything you showed. I just turned 72 and always try to look appropriately youthful and tasteful. Love the shirt, leather jacket and jeans. That is a look I wear a lot. I agree that many styles I see for mature women are over sized and baggy. They look like “older lady” styles. Also love the jewelry suggestions-so elegant and beautiful. Thank you Dierdre.. love your videos. ❤
I love your fashion ideas it is fabulous I love beautiful outfits
Those before and after combinations are so helpful! Thank you for this video and I look forward to the next! ❤
Just a few simple changes to update the looks….and you show us how. Thanks Deirdre. Beautiful jewellery 🌸
XXX
I wanted to let you know you had inspired me to purchase a beautiful dress similar to the one you wore in the wedding video. You called it a Marilyn dress. I felt so beautiful in it and it was really shape contouring! Thank you for all your inspiring videos! You have excellent taste and tips!
Great simple ideas to lift your look. Love the tailored jacket with jeans. Thanks Deirdre xx
Wonderful tips here, Deirdre. I am always looking for ways to keep fresh and relevant and this is helpful advice. Thank you and I hope you are feeling better.
I'm wearing a chunky plastic necklace from Talbots, ready to go to a special holiday dinner. I almost took it off after watching this but nope, I love it. It makes me happy. It's cheerful and colorful.
If you love it, wear it! That's my motto. I hope you had a lovely dinner. XX
I totally agree. I have lots of statement costume jewellery, large rings, necklaces and earrings and nothing would make me stop wearing them. I find this so called classy jewellery so boring. It might be OK for a job interview or a funeral but that is really all I think its good for.
Love pearls!! So glad they’re back in style ❤
I look forward to your videos every week. You make me smile.
Hi Dierdre I never take offence at these type of videos, I love them, it's nice to hear someone elses perspective and suggestions on how to look more modern and youthful. I'll often watch and think "yes I didn't think of that, I'll give it a try!". It's helpful and constructive so thankyou so much x
You’re so welcome xx
I love checking out her links posted. I am finding new ideas for updating my wardrobe, for example, the Vivaia shoes! ( in past video). The flats are so nice!
I love the suggestion on how to mix and switch up pearls! 🥰
I do feel that a classic pearl strand feels frumpy for my age, 63, I wore those in my 20s. I don’t want to look like I never updated my style. But, I love jewelry with pearls mixed with gold elements, they look more modern to me. I love my pearl station necklace, for example and simple gold and pearl-drop earrings. I do like the variation you show here, with the gold beads and Y-drop. Pearls are projected to be even more popular next year.
Absolutely agree with you! XX
Great tips as usual. The pearl jewellery is fabulous. Thanks for another great video
Nothing you wear will make you look younger. You will still look your age. You will just look more modern and put together.
A change in how we think feels so great
Lovely outfits so simple with style . And jewelry too .I always get stuck what way to wear things !! but in my head I know what I like.. but your fashion ideas always inspire and help lots . thanks Deirdre ❣️❤️
I like the idea of creating tension in my outfits by combining formal/classic pieces with casual/relaxed pieces and definitely think it gives a contemporary vibe to our look. Thank you for sharing this, Deidre. 🧚🏻♀️❤️🐝
I totally love that Leather jacket.. I wear 3 small Necklaces as it is dainty but yet stylish ...also your Y Tahitian pearl necklace! I style Men, that's my Job in a Store in the U.S! Thank you for sharing... Style is Style💖
Thank you💕 I really love the mixer up it does make you look younger 🔥no more baggy clothes💃
Deirdre you could never offend. Mom and I are both watching again YEAH! You always give us the best advice. Mom was so excited to see you again and stop talking about you today. Thank you for another wonderful video. Sending our love to Scott Blessing Hugs Love Victoria and Barbara ❤️❤️
Aww, that's wonderful. So happy to hear about your mum. Please give her my love and to you and your family of course, too. XX
Loved this video with great tips as always. Absolutely love pearls!!
Great tips here, I love those outfits, especially the black valor top off the shoulders!!!!!!! TY for sharing!!!!!
Very helpful video, and your examples are so illuminating! Thanks so much for how clear you make things. I've definitely been guilty of #1 and have realized I have a tendency to look schlumpy because of it. I'm going to try your tips! ❤
You're so welcome! XX
NCC How aged ladies style their receding hair line
Love all your suggestions. Thank you 🙏
Deirdre, another wonderful video. Your energy and personality really shine. Dressing too baggy is a mistake many women, including myself make too often.
So true! Lots of love to you, Kimberly. XX
Really enjoyed your video . I'm a new admirer might it be added in my 70s but enjoy keeping smart. What are cash converters? Regards Dee
I’m 5’8 and weigh just under 8stone and I am turning 60 soon. Quality is now what I look for in fashion and accessories but not too much of the accessories. I once bought from secondhand shops but now i save and shop at David Jones and Instead of wearing all my old hippie beads, I’ve now opted for 18ct and 22ct gold pieces of jewellery and I purchase my jewellery from cash converters. That way I don’t pay the ridiculous prices from local jewellers. I now find that I take very good care of everything I own since becoming a minimalist. Many thanks for the tips you shared. Have a wonderful new year..
May I ask how you’ve kept your weight so well even after, I presume, menopause? X
@@Smashingblouse I have always been lean like a race horse and even after having three children I thought I might of gained a few pounds. But not the case.
@@Stevie6636 oh wow that’s brilliant. I’m 5ft3 and 8st5 which is ok but im hoping I don’t blow up after menopause. No sign of it yet but I’m 43 next month. Thank you for your reply 🫶🏻
@@Smashingblouse Your welcome. I’m still waiting to see what menopause looks like. It definitely hasn’t hit me in the face yet.
@@Stevie6636 I expect because you’ve kept yourself so well. My friend has become overweight since her husband passed and it’s really messed with her hormones so she now on HRT and she’s only a year older than myself. Stay well 🙃
So true I totally agree with you I always say the same thing about wearing bad clothes
Another great clip, thanks Deidre, love your videos!!
Such a timely video for all the Christmas get togethers. The pearls are gorgeous. Thank you for the video.
You're so welcome. XX
@@50FabulouswithMyFriendDeirdre3:37
Hi Deirdre! Great topic and wonderful looks! Thank you for sharing your insight! Have a wonderful week!! xx
You too, thank you, Celia. XX
Deirdre we loved the gold earrings. We love pearls and wear them often. Thank you for showing us many ways to wears pearls. Blessings Hugs Love Victoria and Barbara ❤️❤️❤️
You are so welcome, dear Victoria. XX
All your ideas are spot on and work really well.
Your black and white outfit took my breath away. I am a blonde too and I find b/w to be my best looks.
You are so lucky, no tummy, I can’t wear anything tucked in
Great video. Tips are wonderful. I cant seem to like the wideleg pants. They suit some people but I avoid them.
You have a beautiful neckline. The off the shoulder look really suits you !
Thank you! Loved what you shared!
Love subjects you choose to share with us.
Great advice, as always; thank you!
Learned some things! I need to dig out my blazer and put it with my jeans. You looked great in all the outfits but the off the shoulder top and white skirt outfit was so gorgeous, very pretty.
You look fabulous as usual. Thanks for taking the time to explain why things work and why they don't. It certainly helps me. Your figure looks terrific Deirdre! Have a wonderful December. Love from Florida. xx
And to you too, Michele. XX
Great video. I too tend to wear baggy clothes. I need to up my game and look more current! Thanks for the suggestions. And the jewelry is beautiful!
You are so welcome! xx
Hi again from Australia Deirdre! 🇦🇺 👋 Another really considered and helpful video....thank you so much. I think the pearls are absolutely stunning, but sadly for me, I tend to avoid wearing necklaces as I have one of those chests that don't have that lovely concave area for a necklace to 'settle' in....on me they stand forward (I hope I'm explaining properly), so my focus is generally on earrings. Anyway....for all your efforts as always, a big thank you. xxx
You are supporting women and I think it’s great
Hi Deidre, great video, thanks...loved the classic blazer with jeans, sneakers, and tshirt!!!..youre right all the black together did look a bit ageing and looks like you were heading out to the office!!!!..I love pearls you can get some great ones these days as you showed us!! one of my daughters brought me some lovely little stud pinky coloured pearl earrings last year & they look great with any outfit to be honest!!..I am trying really hard to not wear baggy tops!!!..I think when I look in the mirror I keep wondering where did I go?????!!! but youre right it can do the exact opposite!!!!..anyway deidre you look fabulous!!!!..from one of your avid viewers..all the way from South Australia...Love Margaret xo
Great advice. With the second outfit, the suit: I think the blazer and trousers would be fine together, paired with the same t- shirt and trainers, if you don't like jeans.
Thank you very much for this wonderful video, Deirdre. Your advice is excellent and so realistically modern. I admire your examples and am definitely going to follow them. Best wishes always! ❤
You are so welcome! Xx
The last outfit is stunning
Nice video! I live in a cold climate so winter I dress in layers. I have become a big fan of shackets. They are good for cooler weather. I noticed if I button them they swallow me up. Now I open them. No animals or sayings on my clothes. I am retired. I like casual but feminine. Jewelry I have my mom’s and grandmas I get lots of compliments on my jewelry. Summer I like ankle pants and sundresses.
Wish I'd also added that the principle is the same: mixing styles. And your before and after photos are great.
You are so pretty and give such great advice!
Nice change from the hum drum alternative
Love your jewelry and how wonderful white looks on you!
Hi Deirdre, enjoying your advice very much. X
Love your looks and your tips!
Loved your tips. Loved, Loved . Thank you
You right ! Helpfull video.❤
Your videos are always up to date and informative ❤. How do you get around age spots 🙄on shoulders , the chest, "V" neck line⁉️🤔. I know women have laser treatments, suntanning products,etc‼️🤔. Ty, nice styles.🌷
❤oh your last outfit with the black velvet top was very lovely 😊on you
I could listen to your accent all day. Not to mention your great advice. Thank you.
Thank you! 😃
This is my first visit to your videos,wow very good helpful examples,Thank you,im hooked!😊
Welcome! Xx
Thank you for the tips they really help.
I love monochrome dressing. ❤️❤️
Loved this video.....as usual. Happy new year
I like these type of videos, the jewellery is really beautiful ❤
Gingiberi has some stunning pieces. XX
I would for you to do one on handbags that can age you or make you look to mature. Love this Just found your site ❤️
I love your ideal and to be really truthful i already dress this way and im 78. I actually go to thrift stores because i have a very good eye and can afford many more outfits. Compleatly agree with you and thanks.😅
Wear whatever you like.
Thank you so much for inspiring me to know abt the modernisation of fashion during my 50plus age.👍🏻
You're so welcome. Have a lovely day. XX
Love your suggestions. Pearls are my thing, any day, any way. Love you. Be well. Gloria
You too and thank you so much, Gloria. XX
Unlike many of us, you have a lovely slim figure, so yes, you do look good in these outfits. Many of us watching this couldn’t wear these clothes with our very imperfect figures.
Another way you can do the loose top and more fitting pants with a wide woven tan belt, can be very flattering. Or vice versa bit more fitted top and loose pants/skirt. The belt can slim your hips or tummy or give you shape depending how wide or tight you wear the belt.
Great tips! Thank you! And Needed the reminders 😁
You are so welcome! Xx
I love pearls. I make jewellery As a hobby and if I need something for an event or holiday. Today I am wearing a single South Sea Pearl with matching earrings. I also love pearls with turquoise x
Sounds great! Xx
Excellent suggestions as always! I love pearls and the new looks are indeed modern and fresh. I just ordered a necklace and 2 sets of earrings from Gingiberi. Your code worked- thank you. The Christmas $20 wasn’t applied to my $500 order however. PS you look fab in the black off the shoulder top! Update- I love the Gingiberi pieces. Importantly the Gingiberi customer service is outstanding. First, they took care of the Christmas code I mentioned aboce soon after I messaged them about it. Second, there was a problem with the clasp on the hoop earring and they immediately sent replacement. Buy with confidence!!
That’s so brilliant. So happy to share Gingiberi with you xx
Noone ought to be offended Deirdre. You give such great honest tips. Thank you
I do like that you didn’t chop your hair off like every women thinks they need to do over fifty! I always had Lon to medium length hair so that short spikes though cute won’t fit me!
I love hoop earrings with everything, or diamond studs.
Yes, I love them too. XX
Yes I love your purl necklace it lovely
Great tips. Thank you 😊
That was brilliant - love all the examples and suggestions - a great guide to any mature woman. -SUBSCRIBED !
Welcome aboard and thank you so much xx
Lovely helpful ideasxxx thank you!!!xxx
I hope one day we really don't care what people think of how we dress we have been so programmed into worry about what people think of our hair clothes weight how about breaking out of what the system tells us to be and just be who we want to be.
I always purchase modern accessories. This helps my classic pieces look up to date. I have also purchased one or two modern pieces of clothing that can be transformed into a classic piece. For example, my off the shoulder cream sweater can be worn as a one shoulder piece or wear it up on both shoulders. This piece has been worn for special events, everyday looks, and even my office. For the special event, I paired it with a modern skirt and classic shoes.
That sounds like some great ideas. Lots of love. XX
Very lovely tips of fashion thanks ❤️👍
You always look elegant, youthful, and cheerful. Your lithe figure showcases the fashions so well. Thank you for helping us to look our best! Life is too short to look dowdy, frumpy, and miserable.
Thank you so much and you are absolutely right about life being too short to look dull! XX
Thank you for the great video 👍👍👍
I like your “too” classic look. You looked great! It’s my style
In my opinion, I agreed with your strategy of changing some items in a classic look so that they're a mix of contemporary fashion. But, I loved the bland and white loose blazer and bow white top, which was replaced by 3 items. Only one item of the previous so-called boring look was retained. The new look was not polished but trying too hard to be contemporary. Maybe just the t-shirt and/or the shoes could have been replaced and that would have achieved the up-to-date blend you were aiming for.
OK, I appreciate your points, Toni. Lots of love to you. XX
Love your videos and style tips.
Thank you so much. XX
Like the more relaxed without the fussy blouse & lovely sneakers!
Your Christmas bouquet is beautiful. 🎄🎄🎄
I was given a super long strand of pearls (fake of course but nice quality) and I can wrap it 3 times.... I add a chunky gold chain to it and wear it with an open button down and it looks and feels amazing! Pearls brighten the face. Lovely. You look gorgeous in ivory, btw!
Thanks
I just found your page. I loved this video and will share it with friends. Pearls are favorites of mine. In fact, I have declared Saturday as officially “Pearl Day on the Farm”. Even if I don’t leave the farm, I still dress nicely and wear pearls any chance I get. I’ll be watching for you! X
That sounds wonderful. I love pearls. XX
Liked your long hair and colored and looking younger, you are the proof that we do not need short hair to look younger. Thank you.
hi Deirdre those earrings look beautiful on your ears they suit you
I love ur ideas so pretty, but in all honesty, I'm from NYC, so I mixed the festive with the Hip Hop! My answer is faux furs and satins. I prefer silk/satin over cotton, because I feel that cotton is scratchy and uncomfortable, and probably couldn't get me into the clubs where I wanna meet a sweet bbc , so I decided to get a silky Ralph Lauren gold chain bow blouse that has a nice tailored look with wide red satin slacks and a matching red satin blazer, splurged on lots of gold jewelry and gold bamboo hoop earrings and crowned myself with a tilted fur kangol bucket hat and some high heeled timberland boots i was let into a hip hop nightclub that 90% of you probably couldn't step foot into that night lol. I got several numbers and now a date. Thanks for the Christmas outfit idea video. Nice flowing blouse was the answer!
This is my first time watching your videos Very very helpful you just get on with it Your presentation was excellent ☘️☘️☘️
Thank you so much and a big welcome. XX
