I used to wear maxi coat in the (telling my age again)…mid 70s. Didn’t touch the ground, almost, but didn’t 😊. It’s was popular during that time. Nothing is new to me anymore.
I was born in the 70s and I feel I have seen it all too. I’m very careful when I decide to part ways with a wardrobe item now because I might live to regret having gotten rid of it when they come back! 😅
@@elisabethm9655 I have long maxi coat to the ankle, but the ones in the 70s…..fanned out at the hem, and some were made you can unzip at the knee and make it shorter……😀….do you remember that???
I really like fashion and watching this channel, but I really think this should be a consideration when shopping for one of the trends mentioned: The likelihood of feathers being ethically sourced as opposed to through horrific cruelty is pretty slim. I don't think many people are aware of that.
Haha, definite no on the free the nipple trend! I also agree with all of your other advice as well. I have a long chocolate brown wool coat that I will get out of my closet and see if it’s survived years of storage, maybe wear it this winter?
@@Thestyleinsider. Rayon is artificial fibre made from wood or bamboo pulp and is more plush and less shiny than satin. They don't have the same feel. Satin feels colder to the touch, whereas rayon feels more cottony
I totally agree with you on everything! These trends look OK on the catwalk but not in real life! Thank you for sharing your ideas Leonie, have a great week from Canada! 👍🤗
I wear satin but not head to toe. I have a satin bias cut midi skirt in antique gold color. I love pairing it with cashmere polo style sweater or cropped woolen top (no shine on top, shine on bottom). I have several satin material tops. I pair them with matte or woven material bottoms.
Leonie you are 100% right about this! Most of these trends have been popular at some point the last few year and I got them all, satin, snakeskin, oversized blazers, over the knee boots… and I ended up not keeping most of these pieces! I am now trying to buy pieces that are more true to my personal style, that fit well and are better quality and made from natural fabrics! Going for a more sustainable approach and I love that this is the message you are sending with this video 😍
This is Random but...I like to watch the old 80’s show called the Love Boat. 90% of the fashions could be worn today. It’s amazing! lol. Funny too actually.
The bedroom is a great place to be free of clothing. Others have no idea where to look to avoid seeing that which is typically best kept private. We are back in the era of private things made public, & public things-- well, made more public.
You are correct about fashion, Leonie... I think keeping your style timeless is the best way to go... You can interject a couple of new styles here and there, but not to the point that your clothes can be traced to an era...😅
I love the feather look. On BIRDS! Thank you Leonie, I agree with all others. Well, I DO think you'd look amazing with a super simple dress, hair up, and then a necklace with matching ear rings, like you showed in the photos. All the focus would be on your beautiful, radiant face. I love that!
Good grief there were some horrors there! 😆 totally in agreement apart from the satin, I have a few really lovely satin shirts in various colours and a satin midi skirt, they all look really classy and I tend to wear wide leg trousers with the blouses. At 60 years old they make me feel glamorous. I have pastel nude pink, fuschia rose pink, sage green and ocelot print, skirt is dove grey. I didn't pay much for them but I do have a good eye for accurate stitching and cuts, done right they look good x
I agree on everything. That nipple trend is awlful! I have a very long classic Ralph Lauren tweed coat, but it doesn't touch the ground. However, everything is long on me since I'm only 5'-2".
Thanks Leonie for keeping me in my style lane at 55. If I didn’t have you, I could see myself being drawn to all that “glitters”, without realizing what I look like from all angles. 😅
All the snake skin examples you showed look great! On those people. I guess the most important thing is to realize that not everyone can pull off every trend. Good video👍🏾
I absolutely looove satin blouses, have many of them, and intend to keep them in my rotation for a long time. Very elegant and classy for work. I've never found the head-to-toe snakeskin look the least bit attractive. Oversized clothes look sloppy and frumpy no matter WHO wears them.
I agree 💯 Actually at the risk of an unpopular opinion, I don't like that metallic blouse with denim, and I've seen Leonie modelling silk clothing that was wrinkled a.f...not a good look.
Me too I.yad 2 slipdresses already so versatile...I.had lost weight so the silky bñouses I had were too big so I replaced 2 this summer and additionally bought 2 satin midi skirts...They look great on me. I have lived through many years of fahion changes so these days I am a late adopter of "new"styles. My wardrobe is mostly classics chosen to flatter only my petite hourglass BODY❤...Ive learned to ignore long blazers unless fitted at the waist....to ignoreMY colors, oversize shoulders. Just no to all fads. I am constantly complimented on my wardrobe which is 90% vintage or my own 10 yrs or maybe more old selected for MY coloring amd shape and lifestyle.
@@latinaalma1947 you have it so nice you have found your style. Making mistakes but slowly I’m getting it together. Vintage is awesome. You never have to worry someone will have it.
Thanks for your new video Leonie. Love that you do this ”part 1 and 2”; do and don’t. And with your explains it’s so easy to feel prepaired for the next season. A big thanks from Marie from Sweden
Thank you for your videos, I find them so much fun to watch. I just wanted to ask something totally off topic. What foundation do you use? Your skin is so natural and glowing (without looking greasy or sweaty). Thanks again!
I'll be smart if I'm going to go for the power shoulder look. I'll attach pads to the inside of my top or blazer, using a safety pin. That way I'm not really wasting much money to achieve a trendy look🙂
I COMPLETELY agree with you on almost all of your "trends to not wear", especially the nipple showing, and micro-minis, lol. I loved the power shoulder trend in the 80's and early 90's, in fact I've kept a few of my favorite blazers from that time period. I wondered if they would ever come back in style, and they have! I like shoulders slightly padded, because mine are narrow, but I agree with you about the super wide, aggressive shoulders: fine for the runway, but not real life
Hi Leoni Let's start with the Free the Nipples trend! It's totally ridiculous, I think designers are trying to make women look trashy! Ladies,xPlease don't show up at work with any version of that trend. Everything else is a repeat of something I've worn before. I think too much snake can look cheesy. I agree with just about everything you said. However, I'm excited to wear a Longer Maxi again especially in brutal Chicago winters! I certainly won'😢t have it dragging the ground. The only thing I might disagree with is chunky earring and chunky necklaces, I think they can be fun! Thanks for another great video!
Showing your "goods" could lead to rape or unwanted advances. Be careful out there. Whether fair or not, judges would be less willing to prosecute men in situations like that.
It is most unwelcome for looker on’s to give comments, or looks. Men can say the raunchiest things and women can make you feel bad. Such a sad thing, really…
Some women think they are being all free to free the nip but in all actuality they have just been conned into catering to what men like. More could be said but just a hard no. Agree with all you said, looks good on a runway but impractical.
Agreed with all your points and found myself saying yuck. I’m a sewer and silks and satins are very hard to sew because they are slippery, so I do think you would have to buy high end. I think you could find camisoles or tanks in this fabric that would work well and can be dressed up or paired with jeans.
Terrific video and totally agree with you. Also as to the nipple thingy; and to think that men wearing trench coats with no pants on are referred to as 'flashers' . In other words, double standards much? JMO
wear the microshorts with a opaque or patterned tight under a sheer dress and if you want more coverage a long white dress shirt on top with a vest piece or statement belt
I agree with you on all of these trends. I guess the designer creative juices just dried up for now as these trends are a hot mess as far as I'm concerned. Greetings from Los Angeles
Love the Super Maxi Coats ! Been chasing for then the last two years, so super happy if they will be available… 😊 And at 176 and wearing heels, bring on the length 😅 And the power shoulders, super big, have already been here the last two years, so think it will stay around for a while I think. Great video and hearing your opinions… and younger girls and women are luckily not so hung up on keeping the breast hidden and in wires, luckily for them, so think we will see more of that and light soft underwear that show shapes, at least in some cultures. 😊
Agree with everything. Feathers 🪶 make me sneeze 🤧. Also, “ hello, my feathered friend! “ Sylvester to Tweetie. Plus it also reminds me of big bird 🐦. The last trend is just silly 🙃 for fall when it’s cooler. Plus mesh rubs against bare skin. Gah 😖! String of leaves 🍃 like in the Stone Age would be a better option! Lol 😂. Hugs 🤗, Amy
I think I had a super long coat once, years ago, and I remember all kinds of dirt being kicked up onto the back when I walked. So, no good for rainy or snowy walking. And that’s when I want a long coat.
Cheap satin fabric just clings soooo much with static. Not a good fabric to wear in winter, in dry air. But yes, thicker well-made ones look elegant and gorgeous.
Goelia has some reasonably-priced genuine silk items, but the silk is very thin. Still, it might be good intro brand for trying silk items. They also have a lot of bad fabrics like acetates, though, so check each one. No brand affiliation, but I like my new silk items from this brand. Some of the styles, light colors and patterns are delightful to classic-style lovers, like me. Thanks, Leonie, ❤ your channel.
I agree with you on the 'free the nipple ' trend, why would anyone run around half naked in the city, I mean no-one even go braless anymore on the beach. And those awful broad shoulders, really doesn't do any good to your look. like you said, the shoulders arrive before you 😅
Great content Leonie & you look so nice in that blouse & lipstick 💄 color. I hate 🪶 feathers, huge oversized clothing & shoulder pads, & free the N definitely looks unclassy ! Super short shorts 😳 ridiculous for everyday- ok for the beach 🏖️ Snakeskin I do have in a pair of sandals but don’t like it in clothing. Have a great week ahead lol 😘
Totally agree with most. I dont like any animal print. Feathers, not my thing either. Love bold earrings, but i agree less is more. And especially in the fall, i am more in neutral super feminine and elegant phase. So definitely need bold hoops, to add to that look. I dont care for any power shoulders or super oversized. The more there is pushed agenda, to take our feminine energy, blur lines, i want opposite, elegant blouses, pleated skirts, even if it makes my hips bigger( i dont care😜) no micro shorts, at any age, above 5 , in my life. And no elegance in free nipples outfits. I like sexiness mixed with elegance.Have a blessed day🙏💗. .
Great post! I look forward to your predictions for the seasons. Are bomber jackets in for fall? I have a leather one and I yet to wear it. I tend to like my moto jackets better. I hope they are still in style. I have a few from Frankie Shop. Skirts I wear maxi’s so I am hoping they are still in. I am not a fan of snakeskin,or a free nipple at age 69 I am not freeing anything. Hugs xoxo
Agree on everything but the snake skin. It's always been my favorite! But, as you said, maybe not head to toe, but I could rock a skirt or shirt with that pattern. Or a choker, belt, shoes, I'd even do the right pants if I found them. But maybe that'ssssss just me!
Great video and I appreciate your perspectives. I enjoy wearing satin/silk but yes, it can be a challenging material to fashion, especially for every day looks. Free the nips.... I don't generally wear a bra But I also don't wear see through tops when I'm not wearing a bra. I did, one time, by accident, and the looks and "secret" comments I heard by others made me feel very embarrassed and very vulnerable. I felt more trashy than classy. There is a time and place for everything. Exposed nips even behind a mesh material is just simply not classy. I wish Hollywood and designers stopped exposing us. Why aren't men walking around with mesh short shorts and exposing themselves. Nope. Hard Pass!
I am confused about the phrase "pull it off"...is it feeling confident in the clothing or is it about other people thinking you look bad in said clothing? ⭐️
I love your advice and videos and I think you are spot on 99 % of the time. However something is off with that blouse If I have to guess it's that bronze gold is not your colour
VPN, is something my federal agency used to make it harder for hacking and provided higher security since we worked from home. I never thought to have one of my own. Looks like Micro shorts are just panties or bikini bottoms. Remember when Carrie on Sex and the City was asked to wear a panty and coat, but she ended up being roadkill on the runway. I agree with you strongly that only belong underneath a matching short dress (I wore what they called sizzler when I was a pre-teen). I like the maxi coat, ain't no wind going to blow up it and freeze my legs and it works very well for wearing with an evening gown. You just lift it when you are walking where it could be damaged or soiled by the ground. I been looking for one, second hand, basically in men section because there a better chance for a tall that would hit the floor with me. I have several types of thigh high boots and I just see them as an extra layer against the cold under garments because not sure at this age I would wear them any other way (shorts or miniskirts). I am not a fan of sock booties because I never found a pair that I actually liked on. Going braless with nips front and center was more during the hippy chic and afro (black power) halters everywhere (I did not wear them because I was self-conscious of my developing breast), my older sister embraced it. They can leave that on the runway for the poor models that have to walk with it just out there and now it on video for everyone one to see. In America there might be a chance of being arrested for indecent exposure if worn in the streets. Thanks for sharing and blessings to you and all in the days to come.
Dear Ms Leonie, You nailed everything...on the button!!! Right on! I agree with you alllll the way! (especially for the last one; OMG! respect is not....there, not for me... if I wore that trend). Thank you for being a lovely fairy-guide for all of us! helene :)
I agree with the nipple tops, it’s a hard no for me. The over the knee boots are a yes for me because I have thin ankles and calves and it covers that up with short skirts, I love love love the long coats. It’s probably gross because it’s skimming the ground, but I’m here for that look 1000%. Have been for hears now. The short shorts aren’t practical(imo) as well as the feathers and the sateen shirts separately or together. Love your content.🙌🏾
❤❤Leoni🎉🎉🎉! You look amazing. Been wishing that you would trash those pink lipsticks you've worn. You're so great at fashion but, please don't ever where those aging lipsticks again. You are beautiful and look 10 years younger today on the vid! Blessings, you're content is the best🎉.
I laughed at the super long maxi coats. Imagine spending tons of money on a super long ( ivory colored) maxi coat then dragging it through the mud in the winter. Eeek. NOT! edited for additional comment. I do however, welcome the regular maxi coat. They are so warm.
I definitely agree with you and give the free the nipples a hard no. The floor-length code I do think is taking it just a little too far a few inches shorter would work much better. As for the snake print I can't see myself doing it had to tow but like you said accessorizing or perhaps a shell under a blazer. I think there's quite a few people that could pull off to toast make skin print. It's just not one of those things that you'd get your money's worth out of. As for the satin I agree the high-quality pieces might look nice but I think for me it's likely to be a pass. What colors, waistline / leg shape trousers will be in this season?
I used to wear maxi coat in the (telling my age again)…mid 70s. Didn’t touch the ground, almost, but didn’t 😊. It’s was popular during that time. Nothing is new to me anymore.

Not much is new to me either I'm afraid. I do love maxi coats but I just don't like them trailing on the ground - eek!

The likelihood of feathers being ethically sourced as opposed to through horrific cruelty is pretty slim. I don't think many people are aware of that.
I’m guessing they’ll be fakes, not real feathers.
@@lovemesomeslippersSo we hope.
Also, feathers are most definitely not washable. If you can’t detach them the item will be dry cleaning only.
Good point. Huh
Haha, definite no on the free the nipple trend! I also agree with all of your other advice as well. I have a long chocolate brown wool coat that I will get out of my closet and see if it’s survived years of storage, maybe wear it this winter?
Hello Leonie! As you know, as a seamstress, can't agree more with the satin. It has to be good quality. Otherwise it looks very cheap and plasticky
Short shorts? Short short shorts? 😅 Yes, they are very short indeed! Looks more like a granny panty
I love the cheaper satin look.. especially with everything bland or neutral...
I just think it's too cold to wear satin in the fall and winter. I can see it as a spring fabric.
YES! I think a lot of people confuse fabrics like rayon for satin and they are actually very different right?
@@Thestyleinsider. Rayon is artificial fibre made from wood or bamboo pulp and is more plush and less shiny than satin. They don't have the same feel. Satin feels colder to the touch, whereas rayon feels more cottony

No I didn't notice that - I'll have a closer look!

Super short shorts 😳 ridiculous for everyday- ok for the beach 🏖️ Snakeskin I do have in a pair of sandals but don’t like it in clothing. Have a great week ahead lol 😘
Thanks Sharon - I've been experimenting with lighter lipsticks so thank you x
What a beautiful blouse you wearing ❤
Thank you! 😊
Totally agree with most. I dont like any animal print. Feathers, not my thing either. Love bold earrings, but i agree less is more. And especially in the fall, i am more in neutral super feminine and elegant phase. So definitely need bold hoops, to add to that look. I dont care for any power shoulders or super oversized. The more there is pushed agenda, to take our feminine energy, blur lines, i want opposite, elegant blouses, pleated skirts, even if it makes my hips bigger( i dont care😜) no micro shorts, at any age, above 5 , in my life. And no elegance in free nipples outfits. I like sexiness mixed with elegance.Have a blessed day🙏💗. .
Great post! I look forward to your predictions for the seasons. Are bomber jackets in for fall? I have a leather one and I yet to wear it. I tend to like my moto jackets better. I hope they are still in style. I have a few from Frankie Shop. Skirts I wear maxi’s so I am hoping they are still in. I am not a fan of snakeskin,or a free nipple at age 69 I am not freeing anything. Hugs xoxo
Yes bomber jackets are still looking popular this Fall /Winter too 👍🏼
Agree on everything but the snake skin. It's always been my favorite! But, as you said, maybe not head to toe, but I could rock a skirt or shirt with that pattern. Or a choker, belt, shoes, I'd even do the right pants if I found them. But maybe that'ssssss just me!
Love your makeup today! What is different??
Satin is very dressy in the right style... surprised to see it in this video
Of course. All trends simply do not fit to winter 😀 when is cold and wet ;)
Great video and I appreciate your perspectives. I enjoy wearing satin/silk but yes, it can be a challenging material to fashion, especially for every day looks. Free the nips.... I don't generally wear a bra But I also don't wear see through tops when I'm not wearing a bra. I did, one time, by accident, and the looks and "secret" comments I heard by others made me feel very embarrassed and very vulnerable. I felt more trashy than classy. There is a time and place for everything. Exposed nips even behind a mesh material is just simply not classy. I wish Hollywood and designers stopped exposing us. Why aren't men walking around with mesh short shorts and exposing themselves. Nope. Hard Pass!
Agree 1000000%
Too soon to talk about the fall, let us enjoy summer 🌞
I'd not wear satin in bottoms, since this material is so sensitiv and sitting on it makes it very fast look old and worn.
I am confused about the phrase "pull it off"...is it feeling confident in the clothing or is it about other people thinking you look bad in said clothing? ⭐️
I mean how you feel yourself 👍🏼
I love your advice and videos and I think you are spot on 99 % of the time. However something is off with that blouse If I have to guess it's that bronze gold is not your colour
I'm someone like Iris Apfel 😊 but still a no to most of these. The maxi coat is a staple for me in my cold climate.
VPN, is something my federal agency used to make it harder for hacking and provided higher security since we worked from home. I never thought to have one of my own. Looks like Micro shorts are just panties or bikini bottoms. Remember when Carrie on Sex and the City was asked to wear a panty and coat, but she ended up being roadkill on the runway. I agree with you strongly that only belong underneath a matching short dress (I wore what they called sizzler when I was a pre-teen). I like the maxi coat, ain't no wind going to blow up it and freeze my legs and it works very well for wearing with an evening gown. You just lift it when you are walking where it could be damaged or soiled by the ground. I been looking for one, second hand, basically in men section because there a better chance for a tall that would hit the floor with me. I have several types of thigh high boots and I just see them as an extra layer against the cold under garments because not sure at this age I would wear them any other way (shorts or miniskirts). I am not a fan of sock booties because I never found a pair that I actually liked on. Going braless with nips front and center was more during the hippy chic and afro (black power) halters everywhere (I did not wear them because I was self-conscious of my developing breast), my older sister embraced it. They can leave that on the runway for the poor models that have to walk with it just out there and now it on video for everyone one to see. In America there might be a chance of being arrested for indecent exposure if worn in the streets. Thanks for sharing and blessings to you and all in the days to come.
Thanks for taking the time to comment Denise 😊
Dear Ms Leonie,
You nailed everything...on the button!!!
Right on!
I agree with you alllll the way! (especially for the last one; OMG! respect is not....there, not for me... if I wore that trend).
Thank you for being a lovely fairy-guide for all of us!
helene :)
Also satin stains very quickly!
Great point - it really does ✅
Buy shoulder pads that could insert in over size blazers , dresses, shirts
I agree with the nipple tops, it’s a hard no for me. The over the knee boots are a yes for me because I have thin ankles and calves and it covers that up with short skirts, I love love love the long coats. It’s probably gross because it’s skimming the ground, but I’m here for that look 1000%. Have been for hears now. The short shorts aren’t practical(imo) as well as the feathers and the sateen shirts separately or together. Love your content.🙌🏾
No dragging coats
Your face/skin looks so beautiful again today!🦋
❤❤Leoni🎉🎉🎉! You look amazing. Been wishing that you would trash those pink lipsticks you've worn. You're so great at fashion but, please don't ever where those aging lipsticks again. You are beautiful and look 10 years younger today on the vid! Blessings, you're content is the best🎉.
Aww that’s lovely to hear - I’m really enjoying wearing more nudie colours with a touch of gloss so thank you 😊
Satin is hot and I personally believe it is a night time material.
Modesty will always be more classy than putting yourself on full display.
Thank you Leonie for this perspective. I am 65, i have done all of this b4. Nope, this is all a hard pass for me.
I understand
I agree with your assessment of the trends, im mostly looking forward to the snakeskin but not head to toe. And I will not be freeing the nipple. 😂
I won’t be freeing the nipple either 🤦🏻♀️😂
Great information video 😊
Glad it was helpful Dawn!
Your make up is chefs 😘😁
Aww that's very kind thank you - I've been changing it up a little lately so appreciate your comment :)
@@Thestyleinsider. You are so very welcome😊 I so enjoy and benefit GREATLY from your channel and content. I'm already gearing up for fall!!🤩✌🏼🤎🧡👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I laughed at the super long maxi coats. Imagine spending tons of money on a super long ( ivory colored) maxi coat then dragging it through the mud in the winter. Eeek. NOT! edited for additional comment. I do however, welcome the regular maxi coat. They are so warm.
Its still July!
I definitely agree with you and give the free the nipples a hard no. The floor-length code I do think is taking it just a little too far a few inches shorter would work much better. As for the snake print I can't see myself doing it had to tow but like you said accessorizing or perhaps a shell under a blazer. I think there's quite a few people that could pull off to toast make skin print. It's just not one of those things that you'd get your money's worth out of. As for the satin I agree the high-quality pieces might look nice but I think for me it's likely to be a pass. What colors, waistline / leg shape trousers will be in this season?
Edit isn't working. Also wondering about hem length for pants, skirts and dresses
