I love the grey Jersey on you with the Zip up collar. Looks so different and that color suits you.. You model like a professional, it wouldn't surprise me if you were a model.
I think it's kinda funny that one influencer will say certain things are dated and out of style, and then others will show those same styles and say they are in this season. I do like your style, you always look so classy even when you dress down. I like to still look nice even when being super casual.😁
Opinions are like belly buttons, everyone has one! For influencers who prematurely put items in the "out of style" category, I am curious if they stand by their statements. Just because an item is not "trending" does not mean it is out of style. Either way, style is personal. My feeling is, if you love it, wear it.
The long sweater ( with the leopard print) you wore would have looked more ‘complimentary ‘ if the pants were not so contrasting , perhaps a more monochromatic look to scale up the outfit and tone down the sweater . Just an opinion …. You are blessed to look great in everything you showcase . Cheers
Good point! Wearing the long pink & leopard sweater with some light wash blue jeans or cream jeans would look nice. I also love the idea of pairing it with some comfy leggings and curling up to read a good book. So many options! Thank you for watching and commenting.
What great pieces! I will keep an eye out for a blazer at a thrift store that I can fringe like the one you showed. I think those Western boots are in my future.
Love your channel, but some of these items do not look like you...I love your classic style and hope you’ll do more videos on classic style and more elegant pieces.
Thank you! I'm a classic, conservative girl at heart but like to step out and try different styles to keep my look youthful and interesting. After all, if I'm too predictable, you might get bored. :o)
Such a great video - couldn’t stop watching from beginning to end! So many great outfits and ideas - thank you thank you and loving what i see from Venus!
It's so great to know that skinny jeans have not gone out of style. I like the longer length ones that you showed. The only look that I didn't care for, with the skinny jeans, was the open-toe booty. I thought they looked sloppy at the ankle. There probably wasn't a way to tuck them in. Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed the video.
Thank you for another video with great wardrobe ideas!! My boyfriend is not a fan of sweaters, so I don’t want to overwhelm him. The short pullover one will make it into my closet, however. Also love the jeans and some shoes! I’ve gotten many compliments on your other ideas. Thank you!
Thanks for all these great ideas! My fave was the square neck tee w boot cut jeans .. You look fantastic in every outfit though! Will def check out Venus..
I just don't call a tee shirt and a pair of jeans an outfit. Now when you added the pink and leopard sweater to the pink tee and jeans, that was an outfit. Kind of. But it would have been more of an outfit if the jeans had been black.
hi! 😁 you can pretty much wear anything with your amazing physique. i was a little surprised with a few of the pieces in this particular video.. didnt seem to match the idea of the simple mindset that i normally really enjoy getting ideas from. Your a classy beautiful person regardless and i enjoy your classy more conservative format.
Thank you! I am a classic girl, but enjoy mixing it up with some unique pieces to stay relevant, interesting and youthful. Taking fashion risks is a fun way to experiment with style. Besides, if I'm too predictable you might get bored. :o)
Yes! I was wearing a size medium, and I usually wear a size 8 or 10 on top because I have very broad shoulders. Venus clothing sizing is generous. Thanks for watching and commenting.
You look fantastic as always but can I be really super honest with you...I didn't like any of these looks. I'm sorry to say that because you're usually so on the mark. Did your sponsor choose the items for you? If they did, then never let a sponsor have that level of control again, no matter how much they pay for the sponsorship. You're way better than these clothes and that's what we love about you. Be you, don't ever pander to sponsors or even your audience. Be you! 💕
Thank you for watching and commenting. I guess I can’t win them all! I had fun with this VENUS FASHION video and chose every item that I styled. A few of the pieces were outside of my "classic style" profile, but it is fun to "step out" and try new things to keep from being too predictable.
Thank you! I have my nails done at a salon. They use a colored powder as part of an acrylic "dip" process. They code all the colors with a number. This one is 54B, which probably means absolutely nothing to anyone but them. If I can get the name of the color & brand, I will share the information in an upcoming video.
Thank you for commenting. Choosing trends that speak to you is the only way to go! However, when you find a trend you like, integrating it into your wardrobe is a sure way to keep your look modern.
Thank you so much! Improving the tone of my arms and stomach has been a top fitness priority, so I appreciate your kind words. The workout routine I follow is one I created myself and takes about 30 minutes a day. Fitness is only part of the equation. Mindfulness, diet, fitness and lifestyle are all important. Just over two years ago, I _thought_ I was doing everything right and could not figure out why my fitness goals eluded me. I was about 20 lbs heavier, frustrated and feeling the effects of menopause. Now that I have figured it out, I feel like I have taken back my youth. I've had several inquiries about my diet and fitness routine, and I'm thinking about creating an online course to give the step-by-step details so I help other women, like myself, who want to look and feel young again.
I'm almost crying reading that comment...I am exactly where you were 2 yrs ago. I'm 53, going crazy with this menopause additional weight. I have always been on the thinner side and now feel like I'm wearing a fat suit every day. I work out and can not seem to make a difference in my size/shape. I think many of us would benefit from a inspirational vidio on how you reshaped yourself! Not only your physical appearance but your mindset! I've always been youthful and trendy,dressed fun and would like to continue, but feel my belly bulge is hindering me. Not to mention belly bulge is unhealthy. Like the others say, your a inspiration to watch!
Thank you! It's never too late to take back your youth! That's what I did. Just over two years ago, at 53, I was wearing a size 10-12. Done with feeling tired, flabby and achy, I changed my mindset, my diet and my exercise habits....and changed my life. You can do it too.
I'm glad that you cleaned up your diet and lost weight, your assumption that if someone is not thin it is because they haven't put in the work to be so is pretty insulting. After a lifetime of dieting and hating my body, I'm trying to learn to love the body I'm in. I've realized how much of the messaging about body size is that if a body is not below a certain body fat percentage then that person is making poor choices but the fact is people come in all shapes and sizes, sometimes you have the physic that allows you to cut out the nightly ice cream and start walking and drop extra weight, some people are just made more rounded and it is insulting to assume a lack of effort. It is true that a straight up and down figure is easier to style, that's why run way models are long and lean but if you are going to talk about size inclusivety maybe focus your response on how to address the challenge of dressing different body shapes rather than insinuating other body types are from lack of effort.
In my experience, the quality of VENUS swimwear, clothing and shoes is very good. The texture and thickness of the fabrics looks and feels nice. This is the first time I have worn their jeans and I am very impressed. Besides looking and fitting well, they are actually long enough to wear with heels, which is hard to find (for tall girls) with the current popularity of cropped-style jeans.
too many jeans! jeans are such a crutch for women and we need to get out of the jeans box. "styling" jeans over and over with different tops is not style or inspiring.
Oh! And the other thing your shoulders and arms are so perfect - maybe an exercise video? Cheers.
Great suggestion!
I love the grey Jersey on you with the Zip up collar. Looks so different and that color suits you.. You model like a professional, it wouldn't surprise me if you were a model.
Thank you for your kind words. I'm not a model, I just enjoy fashion and sharing my ideas to help others. :o)
I absolutely LOVE your style! I often refer back to your videos when styling outfits. Thank you! Also, I LOVE the leopard print booties!
Thanks for commenting. Glad you like them! VENUS did a great job with the leopard boots. Honestly, very impressed. Can't wait to wear them.
Gorgeous outfits and you look beautiful in every one of them. Great early fall look 👀

I totally agree!
Loved all those cardigans and the back booties.
The long sweater ( with the leopard print) you wore would have looked more ‘complimentary ‘ if the pants were not so contrasting , perhaps a more monochromatic look to scale up the outfit and tone down the sweater .
Just an opinion …. You are blessed to look great in everything you showcase .

@@TheSimpleMindset I agree. The age of fifty does not mean frumpy.
Such a great video - couldn’t stop watching from beginning to end! So many great outfits and ideas - thank you thank you and loving what i see from Venus!
Wow! That was jam packed with lots of great ideas! Thank you!
Glad you liked it!!
Really wish more of your picks came in petite as well.
Yes! Me too. Hopefully Venus Fashion will offer petites in the future.
Amazing video! Love all the looks! 💕

Glad you liked it! I had fun putting all the outfits together.
Thanks for all these great ideas! My fave was the square neck tee w boot cut jeans .. You look fantastic in every outfit though! Will def check out Venus..
Glad you like them!
Thanks for showing us modest choices from Venus ❣️ aside from swimwear I wondered what a Midwest 50something would wear🙄🤭
Love the shorter hair.......
Missing you on YT ❤
I just don't call a tee shirt and a pair of jeans an outfit. Now when you added the pink and leopard sweater to the pink tee and jeans, that was an outfit. Kind of. But it would have been more of an outfit if the jeans had been black.
Diane, I want your wardrobe 🥰
You look fabulous in all the outfits. You have a stunning figure to show off all the lovely pieces.
Thank you so much!

@@TheSimpleMindset your wonderful and i enjoy your channel. 👍😁
I know this is from a few weeks ago, so I hope that you see this! Would you say that the tweed fringe jacket runs true to size?
Yes! I was wearing a size medium, and I usually wear a size 8 or 10 on top because I have very broad shoulders. Venus clothing sizing is generous. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I don't think a leather bustier really works for The Simple Mindset. Linda
Totally agree Paul
Trying to keep it interesting! I'm a classic, conservative girl who likes to take fashion risks once in a while to keep my look fun and modern.
You look fantastic as always but can I be really super honest with you...I didn't like any of these looks. I'm sorry to say that because you're usually so on the mark. Did your sponsor choose the items for you? If they did, then never let a sponsor have that level of control again, no matter how much they pay for the sponsorship.

Can you please share your nail color and tips for beautiful nails. ❤️🙏🏻

This one is 54B, which probably means absolutely nothing to anyone but them. If I can get the name of the color & brand, I will share the information in an upcoming video.
I enjoyed seeing these trends but I think some won’t be in for more than one season so I won’t buy them-but interesting to see.
Thank you for commenting. Choosing trends that speak to you is the only way to go! However, when you find a trend you like, integrating it into your wardrobe is a sure way to keep your look modern.
Thank you.
Your arms look amazing. Could you share the workout video you use please?

Great body, everything looks great when your thin, good for you.

What about the quality of this brand?
In my experience, the quality of VENUS swimwear, clothing and shoes is very good. The texture and thickness of the fabrics looks and feels nice. This is the first time I have worn their jeans and I am very impressed. Besides looking and fitting well, they are actually long enough to wear with heels, which is hard to find (for tall girls) with the current popularity of cropped-style jeans.
too many jeans! jeans are such a crutch for women and we need to get out of the jeans box. "styling" jeans over and over with different tops is not style or inspiring.
For an alternative to jeans take a look at my latest video where I styled a denim skirt which is very on trend this season.
