Just for fun I ordered some fashion items that were not intended for older women. Not many this time as I was testing whether I would like them or not. A really nice change to my usual smart, structured neutrals.
Dear Lady. Stop saying “ it doesn’t look that bad” you look gorgeous in every outfit even the jumpsuit, that I’d never even dare to think about. Wear everything you presented in good health. You are an inspiration ! P.s. I’d leave short pieces out.
Maybe you don't like the blue top, but it sure looks awesome with the pants! This one and the floral dress you wear, are my favorite looks. Have fun in Madrid!
Thanks very much, yes the blue top is great with the pants, maybe I won't discard it just yet! Still a few weeks to go before Spain but I am starting to get excited, can't wait. 😘
You Go Girl ! I am tired of seeing videos telling me what I can and can't wear ! The biggie for me is being told to cover my arms with sleeves, in boiling hot temperatures! Pinterest is full up with fashion advice for older women, from sometimes frumpy women, wearing clothing and hairstyles, that I would only wear for gardening ! You looked fabulous in those clothes!
Thanks very much. I hadn't really thought much about the "cover up your arms" rule but now you mention it, yes the experts do go on about it. Oh well one more rule for us to break. haha.😘
Just found your channel and subscribed. Love you mind set. I totally agree with your sentiment. I’m rolling into 75 this year rocking it all the way! ❤
Just found you. Glori you are my kind of woman! You have just brightened my day on this wet and dull summer day in the U.K. You look amazing in all the outfits you showed us. I can’t wait to see your next video.
Oh Wow, you are in the UK. No matter where we are, it looks like we are all fed up with being told to look boring and frumpy. Thanks very much and cheers. 😘
Outstanding choice of colour, pattern, and fabric. Every single one is fabulous on you, although not keen on the pink shorts set. Altogether, WOW! Thanks for sharing. It brings out a new perspective. I'm sure this will give women more confidence and courage to step out of their comfort zone.10/10 🎉
The first thing I thought when I started the video, was " What a pretty dress she has on". Recently, I watched one of those don't wear videos, and the presenters main advice was don't wear outdated stuff which was interesting and not what I expected.
Thank you!!! I’m hoping your video goes viral and you start a new trend out there. You look absolutely beautiful and fabulous in everything you put on. I think most outfits that are in style right now look downright stodgy. Bright, happy, airy, and pretty prints are so delightful.
Thanks very much Lisa, and I totally agree, what we are expected to wear is nothing short of frumpy, that's why I'm sticking to pretty bright clothes.😘
Thank you for sharing the results of your fight against the fashion gurus! We are tired to be chastised for our choices, let's make ourselves happy. We don't need anymore to dress for the office or whatever uniform deemed correct, just wear what we feel good in. Your choices were just a great example of how anyone of any age could look dazzling. It is difficult to forget that what we buy is what is in the racks, even if we would want something else, unless running all over town to try to find exactly what we like. I am 80, and people just are stunned when they learn that. In older age we should just dress as we feel like that very day, we might not have so many of them left to enjoy ourselves!
So happy to hear from you Yvette, there is no argument against what you said because you are absolutely correct and I totally agree with you. How we dress and present ourselves to the world is an expression of how we feel so yes we are entitled to do it our way. What gripes me is that no other age group is told how they should dress, as if we are incapable of deciding ourselves. Well we are perfectly capable and we're going to have fun whilst we are at it. xxx
I have been saying the same thing. I love bright colors, florals and other clothes the RU-vidrs say we shouldn’t wear. At our age we can wear what we want. You go girl! It is so much fun to wear clothes that make us happy. You are adorable. I am home these days being a caregiver to my husband with dementia but he enjoys when I wear my pretty dresses. I love the Picasso dress, graphic jumpsuit , and the pig jumpsuit.
Thanks very much Terry. I'd have to say the Picasso dress sure turned out to be one of my favourites, and I only got it out of defiance. Haha. Isn't that marvelous that your husband knows what he likes and appreciates your pretty dresses, all the more reason to wear them..... and to ignore the so-called experts. 😘
I think wear whatever makes you feel good, the important thing is to keep a reasonable figure in our older years. I love the black, beige and white geometric print dress.
Just subscribed to your channel. This video is so inspiring! I have been on a similar mission myself lately. You look great in every one of these outfits! Thank you for this!
I am in my 70’s. The ladies that I follow say 70s is the decade you can wear whatever you choose. Personally, I’ll skip a string bikini. But shorts,bright colors and prints are my jam.! I love choices. They do not age you, they showcase your personality.
Good on you Glori, I totally agree with you about nonsensical ideas about what is appropriate for us old girls! I love all of those outfits and you look great in them. And wear the shorts, you have great legs!
Thanks Kerry. I suspect it is younger people telling us older people what to wear and you know what, I don't think we are taking any notice anyway. haha 😘
Thanks very much Karen. The Picasso dress proves you don't have to show your knees, I love that dress and I love the length. And yes I'm right into bright and colourful now too. 😘
You look great in all of the items I am in my 80th year and not able to wear what I like as I am disabled bu I certainly would wear all of those items, more power to your elbow go girl go.👌👌👌👌
Thanks very much Maureen. 80 is the new 60 isn't it? Glad to hear you like these bright clothes, yes please, wear similar, I'm sure you'll look fabulous. 😘
OMG the 2nd dress you tried on is gorgeous and you looked fabulous. I am almost 70 but I still love to dress up and I don’t listen to these so called professionals I wear what I like and feel comfortable in. Perhaps the younger ones are threatened we older ladies would steal all the attention 😂😂😂😂😂
I’m 63 and love colorful fashion, mixing patterns and bold accessories. Just stumbled upon this video and I enjoyed it! Try colorful scarves in your hair and big earrings 😉
Thanks for this advice. I love color and I will always wear color. There are always colorful clothes that are appropriate to choose. Thanks for sharing.
Loved everything on you.. The first dress especially looked really classy. Shorts? Not so keen to me they look a bit "pyjama" but that's just me, As you mentioned though they are great for really hot days.... Thank you for doing this, I too am sick and tired of younger women dictating our dress sense. WE were the first boho hippy kids! We know what we like!! Well done!!
I’m 82 and I’d wear all of these outfits. Got a crazy dress like your Picasso. Agree with you that I’m definitely not wearing shorts comfortably again. Legs are above and beyond!😊😅😮😢😂
Thanks Lorraine, I know the Picasso dress was an absolute bonus. Usually, the pictures look better than the reality but in this case the Picasso dress is even better in real life. 😘
I just came across your video and love your choices and you looked great in them. I was wondering how tall you are because you looked very good in everything.👍.❤
I actually like the blue bat wing top on you. After seeing it on you I would purchase it. The outfit looked amazing on you. I am not a jumpsuit fan but seeing you wear them I may change my mind. I think we women of a certain age should embrace pattern and colour. Our lives should not be relegated to constantly being ready for a funeral.
That really struck me, no other age group is told wot is age appropriate. I am 71 hav pink hair n wear colour all the time. If u do more content like this l will b REALLY delighted. Wen l am in my box the LAST thing l will b thinkin is l wish l had worn more beige...
There are too,many control freaks in the world that are never happier than laying down the law on what other people should do, have or think. I have wardrobe full of lovely clothes kept here and there over the last forty years of my life because I had the room to do so. I am going to have a ball wearing whatever looks good on me for the rest of my time here and will buy the odd piece or accessory to look here and now. And it’s nobody’s business but mine what I wear. Howzat!!!!
You look absolutely stunning in everything. I liked the blue top on you with the pants better than the white one you also wore with them. The sleeves looked fantastic. I’m nearly 71 and slim like you so often the more mature styles start at a size too big for me thank goodness! I wear a lot of stuff from the high street stores probably intended for 20’s and 30’s and as long as I choose wisely no one would think they are too young for me. Love this video.
Thanks very much Susan, I'm with you, my 27-year-old niece often borrows my clothes and I get her leftovers when she's fed up with them. I must admit the blue top is growing on me and to be honest it was made for the pants. Cheers. 😘
Thank you. I have loved wearing bright, colorful clothes for a long time, and it was depressing me to think that I needed to change my wardrobe. I am 76 years old, and your video just gave me the jolt that I needed to continue wearing what suited me best. The outfits you have shown looked beautiful on you.
I’m amazed at all those wonderful fabrics and how cool you looked in everything . I didn’t hear a word you said because my AirPods were recharging but I was very impressed with your podcast and will look forward to seeing you again. Anix🍓
You look absolutely beautiful in all of the outfits….certainly has made me think about what I usually wear. I’ll have to take your cue and be a bit brave.
Hello I've just seen your video and I love it. I'm 71 and I'm a neutral girl, beige and pastels, classic/casual but this year Iooking in my wardrobe I thought 🤔 how boring and I've bought so many colourful things and also 2 bold printed long dresses. I've not worn a dress in 30 years 😅 love your video and hoping to see more 💕
Think you look stunning in the vibrant colors and designs. I’m 66 and I love vibrant colors. Just an fyi the jumpsuit that you were concerned about the crotch was a dropped crotch jumpsuit…very fashionable here in the US. Also loved to cobolt blue top was gorgeous with those pants. I think that square neck top in cobolt would be awesome with those trousers. Enjoy your vacation.😊
Thanks Sheryl, yes I see what you mean about the dropped crotch. Pretty cool. I don't mind, I can wear it like that and be up to date with the trend. xxx
I’m with you all the way! Just love the beautiful flowered dress you’re wearing AND each and every one of the rest. Not sure that I have the courage to wear the short short sets, though I do just looove the print of the dancing people and would definitely get something in that print. 🙏🏼 👏🏼 🧑🏼🦳 👍🏼 🤗
You look fabulous, I like your choices, go girl. I’m with you, let’s have fun with fashion, I’m over sixty also, and we deserve to enjoy varieties of fashion too ❤
This is a breath of fresh air! The dress with the face I just bought my daughter as a 27th birthday present. It looks fabulous on you! I don’t like neutrals or classics - I’m Bohemian- and it’s so nice to see a video showing us something new.
When I clicked on your video, my first thought was, “Wow… She looks *beautiful* in that floral dress!” 😍 There’s no good reason for us to abandon the notion of having fun with our wardrobe, just because we’ve reached some arbitrary age. We’ve earned the right to please ourselves and not give a flip about what others might think of it. The first 3 outfits were my favorites. I wouldn’t have chosen them, yet they looked amazing when you tried them on . . . Better than on the model! Now I want that jumpsuit! Subscribed 👍
Well, you've inspired me , Glori. You look absolutely fabulous. I think all those outfits you showed us were gorgeous, and you have a lovely trim figure, too. Thank you , i think I'll go and order some colourful clothes now, marvellous 🙂 and I've just subcribed to your channel, to get ideas and be encouraged. 👍
You are beautiful and elegant. And what a lovely figure. You do justice to those clothes and show them off at their best. On the hanger not so special on you gorgeous. That’s for the inspiration, validation and confidence.
Fantastic. I loved this. The clothes looked fabulous. One thing I thing ages us is when we wear ‘old lady’ shoes and accessories. I love when I find comfy yet contemporary shoes. I loved all of your outfits. I liked the pink outfit the least as it didn’t showcase your amazing style as well as your other choices, but it was still lovely. You’ve got great legs. Keep wearing shorts. 😊
@@glorij I love shopping and when I don’t have lots of $$$ I go to op shops. I make jewellery and scarves myself and I do lots of browsing on Pinterest and cheap and cheerful sites like Temu. Have a fabulous day. I’ve subscribed so am looking forward to your next video.
Hi Caroline, I'm with you, I love shopping too and yes I love Temu etc. Sometimes all it takes is a nice accessory, like a scarf, to make you look special. I honestly don't understand why people of all ages get around in such sloppy clothes. Putting on nice clothes is not a huge effort and I think if you look well presented, you feel better about yourself. Thank goodness for Op shops. 😀
Attitude is everything ! Love this why are we told we can’t wear certain things because we are older …. I’m so pleased you have done this channel new sub but would love to know where the items came from especially dress number 2
Thanks very much. I'm pretty sure that dress came from Temu. Yes I was skeptical but pleasantly surprised. The quality is actually very good and the fabric is substantial. Oh yes and very reasonably priced. I'd be prepared to check them out again. 😘
Hiya hun, your chanel has just popped up on my youtube, you look fab darling! I'm 66 very soon and I wear very bright colours, I don't know who makes all these rules about older ppl can't wear this/that etc, wear what you want matie, you rock!
