Thanks to the talented Asia Jackson for the inspiration to the format of this video! I thought going back and restyling old outfits like this was such a brilliant way to showcase how powerful little styling tweaks and lessons learned like these can be. If you haven’t watched her video you should! Here it is: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-klKVm1FALhs.html - thanks for watching! ❤️Signe xx

When you have about three months of scorching temperatures here in Phoenix, AZ, I finally embraced adding more shorts to my wardrobe. First I was concerned about my age (66) in addition to the imperfections in my legs. My style is all about comfort and classic neutral styles. I added some preppy styles of shorts and some pleated linen Bermuda shorts. When I style these with the right tops, I feel both comfortable and stylish. I hope to get to a more minimalist wardrobe in the future. I love your style and the way you are always reflecting on your wardrobe.

@lizziebkennedy7505 Год назад

Great advice. I love a “skort”, a, long wide Aline short. Found some in navy tencel in a thrift shop, they were ‘golf’ shorts. They look like a Bermuda short met a business skirt, but are so cool and airy and a bit funky. You can’t look stylish if you’re uncomfortable!

@33Jenesis Год назад

I wanted to get a chunky gold and a silver necklace, seeing how they elevate outfits. A couple of days ago I took out all my jewelry stashed in a drawer. I found a set of chunky gold necklace and earrings from 20+ years ago. I also found a couple of 1970/80’s vintage silver tone chunky chains. I forgot about having them but was happy to rediscover them.

@pamelajezek677 Год назад

@lizziebkennedy7505 Год назад

I so relate about the legs. The cut and fabrication of a skirt is everything. For me, Aline, soft fluid fabric, and knee length or longer. It changes everything when you get the cut/fabric combo right. But bring on autumn and tights!

@marietollett8323 Год назад

Look No. 4 was my fave restyled! 😍 You are very relatable regarding summertime and legs! I’ve *always* been self conscious about my legs-since being a young girl in grade school and being picked on by boys. Between the high temperatures this summer and with slow, steady weight loss- I am now incorporating some shorts and skirts into my summer wardrobe. It feels really nice and lighter. Have a wonderful week! 🤗 ✨

@BriLamberson Год назад

I love this style of video and how you’re going back through the archives and recreating looks. I see with my clients that there’s one season they love to dress for and one season they hate to dress for. I think your summer style is actually pretty cute. I think a longer denim skirt might be a fun addition for you. What do you think? Love your videos, Signe. 💕

@UseLess_dk Год назад

Thank you! ❤️ yes, I do like the look of some longer denim skirts - they’ve been very trendy this year so it might be one of those things I’ll wait a little longer with to make sure I’m not just drawn to it because I’ve seen it so much this summer 👀 but it could be worth thinking about for sure! ❤️ thanks watching 🥰

@BriLamberson Год назад

@laurenvanvliet8584 Год назад

I found your channel after listening to the Sustain This podcast. I have very similar struggles with fashion in summer as you describe in the video. For me it's my arms. I prefer longer sleeves - no idea why, I just prefer long sleeves. Plus, I don't often have a lot of concrete plans in the summer, life is very casual and last minute in the summer, which makes it hard to find a reason to get all dressed up. It's also a very short season - the really hot weather only lasts for about two months, so I don't have a lot of shorts. Dresses are great, but often feel a little too formal for casually hanging out at home.

@kathysteele3071 Год назад

I love that you are slowly adding some color while still staying true to your minimalism. It has helped me to use the color in my closet better. while we are not the same “season” I am able to use our choices for inspiration

Do you still have your Marc Jacobs crossbody bag? It looked so good on you! It inspired me to find a second hand one just like it. 😍

I am 66, still have good legs, and still feel great in shorts. But I recently began to feel uncomfortable in short skirts (tastefully styled, of course) so think I am finally going to abandon them. Sometimes you just know...

@StellavonThun Год назад

Great outfit critiques and updates. I have coveted that MV chunky silver ring of yours Signe so thank you for the links. Summer clothing is challenging. I feel more calm and contained with less flesh showing otherwise a sensation of not being protected or that my body would escape! Other season’s clothing makes me feel held and complete! Autumn has to be my favourite. We ought to form the No Summer Clothing Club! ☺️

@LottenWesterberg Год назад

I love the coulor on the shirt that you wear in the beginning of the video, where is it from? 😊

@allinclusive4943 Год назад

I realize that my style is changing over the years. It's because of getting older, more mature, more confident, being a mom of baby's, toddlers, teens or grown up... I learn, that there will always be the same key pieces I love, but lots of other garments are still changing! Let's embrace it by still being mindful and conscious ❤

@dianecyment1715 Год назад

This was a great video. Styles come and go, but finding your true style as you stated is key. I really like the grey tee and mint green blazer. I never would have thought those would coordinate well. I live in Scottsdale, AZ and we have long hot summers. I retired last year after 20 years of teaching elementary school children, so my lifestyle needs have changed. I still love getting dressed for my day in classic styles, but I needed clothes that accommodated the scorching heat of our summers. When I turned 65, I posed a question to Google on whether women our age should wear shorts. That is how I got started with the RU-vid fashion influencers. Needless to say, I am embracing my age and imperfections in my legs and added about 8 pairs of shorts to my wardrobe. Some are classic styles with pleated linen Bermuda shorts and some have that fun preppy look. I am feeling so comfortable with my choices. I think as women age, most of us become easier on ourselves. I do prefer fall/winter clothes, but I have to accept the reality that I live in a warm climate 75% of the time.

Style evolves even if we like to keep and wear our old clothes. I like how from your new evolved style and increased knowledge you can see clearly what you would no longer wear in the old photos.

@kimberlyperrotis8962 Год назад

Many women of my generation, I’m 63, don’t like those baker boy caps. The reason is that very old ladies of the generation before us never stopped wearing theirs! I now see ladies in their 80s and 90s wearing their original ones, and I think No Way! I feel the same about classic strands of pearls. I love pearls, but always mixed with gold elements in more modern styles. I wore classic strands of fakes in the 80s, they don’t any more look fresh to me now than those enormous 80s shoulders do (but I do like small, squared-edge shoulder pads, just mot the extreme ones we’re seeing again). I was excited when flattering, small shoulder pads cane back, but they quickly went to three foot wide, weird, pointy versions. Designers never know how to use a classic element to best advantage, they always take them to extremes! How about some wearable things for a change?

@amyli092 Год назад

I honestly can't get over how high quality your videos are now, Signe! I like how your style back then and even now is still down to earth with a little bit of edge, but in a direction that feels more nuanced. As a side note, I really feel like you'd make a great model. The way you present yourself no matter what you're wearing just exudes so much natural confidence 😊

Hello Signe, I was so surprised by the years in the video that I seem to have been following you for a very, very long time. Yes, the leopard print skirt made me smile, that's exactly what I thought at the time. I would say: here's to the next "common" years. Many greetings Andy

@juliabogd6391 Год назад

Good exercise! I also have some pics of my outfits from just two months ago (when i started taking them) that i would restyle today. But i realize its not always about making them better or fixing 'mistakes', because i remember feeling great in them! I think it is about i am changing constantly, so as my taste, and i want to restyle them because i am a slightly different person now. From just 2 months ago! That was really an insight.

One thing thay I find so important in a look, is to match your jewellery to the metal wear on your clothes/handbags. Definitely looks more cohesive and polished and not distracting.

@pdk9903 Год назад

I hear you on the brand logos! I recently bought a Furla bag for 25€, the brand logo had worn off from the front of the bag and that's probably why it was so affordable. But for me it was a huge plus not to have a logo on my bag. Thanks for an interesting video!

I love that you moved away from wearing so much black, it doesn’t suit us Summers very well. It’s hard to have a black-free wardrobe, but I try to keep it to a minimum. If I wear black near my face, I wear makeup and try to lighten the black up with a scarf, white collar, etc. I had to wear makeup during my whole career, now that I’m retired, I usually just wear a moisturizer/sunscreen. It’s pure laziness, really, which I don’t otherwise have about my outfits at all. Well, to be honest, I’m pretty lazy about jewelry, too, mostly because it’s such a struggle to get earrings in (bad piercings) or a necklace clasped, I’m on my own. That said, I think many woman wear too much jewelry. I like one each necklace, earrings and bracelet, for example, not multiples of everything stacked. Part of what drove this trend is the outrageous price of gold since ‘08, investors are hoarding it as bullion so much that the amount available is low for other purposes like jewelry. When precious metals are so expensive, jewelry gets smaller and smaller. It wasn’t always like this, when I was in my 20s (1980s) gold wasn’t even recycled, gold jewelry was just thrown away if broken or unwanted. Jewelers refused to work with re-melted gold.

I am totally the opposite in terms of seasonal preferences! I love summer dressing! But its probably because I was born and raised in a tropical country. I moved to Europe almost 5 years ago now and I particularly struggle with cold weather dressing just as much as you struggle with warm weather dressing. I always struggle to look chic AND stay warm at the same time. My summer style keywords are: effortless, utilitarian and whimsical. I love playing around with fun jewellery and bags during this time of year. I love showing more skin and feeling more feminine - which I somehow can’t feel during the colder seasons. I wonder… Could there be a co-relation between where we have been raised and our preferences in seasonal dressing…? 🧐🧐🧐

@UseLess_dk Год назад

That’s a great point Lia! I think there could be. Being born and raised in Scandinavia where it’s cool so much of the time that’s probably why I feel a part of me comes “home” when autumn arrives 😍🙏🏻
