Morning i Annie & thanks for your wonderful video. Just a couple of points though. All the ladies featured are gorgeous & would look stunning in a paper bag! Could you do another one for 99% of ladies who regrettably are not tall or slim! So, for your average Joe who is possibly a little chubbier than they would wish but still wish to look lovely. Also could you include styling tips for fashionable ladies of 70+. Look forward to seeing the results. Many thanks
Dear Lavinia, thank you so much for your kind words about my video - I'm really glad you enjoyed it! I completely understand your points, and I appreciate the feedback. I’d love to create something for a wider variety of body types and age groups. Regarding the styling tips you mentioned, I will definitely give this topic careful thought. Thank you for bringing it up!🤗🌹
Pointy shoes cause bunions on women’s feet. I know; I used to wear pointy high heels a lot. Now I rarely do and, can barely walk in heels. Men get to wear shoes with enough room for their toes.
Secret I will share with all here 🥰’Pointy shoes 👠 have very narrow ‘toe box’. area so you will need to go 1/2 size larger to 1/4 depending on the shoe maker 🤩
After one excruciating foot and ankle repair, following 40+ years of heels and boots, payday had come. The other foot needs repair as well, but it's been 9 years since the procedure. Today, I'm facing double knee replacement as well. The shoes available today allow a wider toe box with a point. The rounded toe of these flats today are a big no-no. Not flattering on anyone. When buying a 1/2 size bigger, excellent gel orthotics help fill any gap at achilles tendon and cushion the flaming ball of your foot.
‘Men get to wear…’ ?? No one is forcing women to wear uncomfortable shoes 😆 chunky shoes can look great. I don’t think she’s really talking to over 50’s here. Is she over 50?
IKR?! I'm wondering if that would work now that I'm in my 60s and thicker through the middle than I used to be. If it's even doable, or if it might accentuate my bulging tummy!
True, better clothes cost more. We Americans have very unrealistically low ideas about how much clothes cost to produce because of decades of fast-fashion, cheap, badly-made polyester clothes. I only buy 100% natural-fiber, well-made clothes and yes, they cost three to four times more. But, they look three to four times better and last three to four times longer.🙂
@@KimberlyPerrotis Yes ! Even if indeed not anybody can afford a Hermès bag, there are plenty of high quality bags (no dupes and no logos please !) that last many years and hence are inexpensive in the long run. Same principle with garments and shoes - and about everything. Better food also costs more… Quality has a price but that money is worth while in the long run.
@@jdub78 If Linda Wright were so wealthy she would not run a shop - and a small shop. She works. She models largely the garments she sells in her shop. Nobody is obliged to buy a Hermès or Chanel bag, plenty of other high quality bags to be bought. The idea is the timeless but far from boring look - and yes quality - and no logos showing !
Very good advices. Thank you! You are so right about the pointy shoes, belt, hat, color combinations and good posture. Wish I had known all these earlier. Subscribed!🌹
Thanks so much for subscribing! I’m excited to share more helpful tips with you. It’s never too late to make these small adjustments, and I’m sure you’ll see a positive difference as you start putting them into practice.🥰🌹
Excellent advice I already follow that colour palette I’ve often noticed in Calvin Klein , Boss, Tommy Hilfiger shops it’s not the quality of the clothes but the neutral palette that makes them seem more expensive when in reality the wool coats I find are very thin and poor quality .The only problem I have with pointy shoes is they add to your shoe size so make your feet look huge if your Uk 7 or 8 so I avoid them .Personally I love quality leather boots knee length in supple leather I think they look very elegant teamed with a beautiful fitted skirt or knit dress with a cowl neck and beautiful fitted wool coat . I stear clear of baggy clothes I don’t like the lagen look what is the point of being slim then hiding it in baggy clothes. I wear t shirts in neutral colours Gap do excellent ones with stretch in them and v necks are very flattering and are an excellent base to build your outfit from . I notice the Italians in Milan wear neutral colour outfits but then add a splash of colour with their handbags .
@@joannaryan9805 Long pointed shoes make feet look narrower (I have wide feet) - nobody believes the real foot is that long , and elongate the leg visually. Neutral colors work well on a quality base (polyester neutrals ? No !)
Using correct words is an important part of appearing to be wealthy.. “Expensive” solely relates to a selling price, not the social status of a person. The correct word is wealthy. A human cannot “look expensive” unless they are for sale such as a slave, a prostitute, or an electrician in a Bentley
Oh my, thank you for sharing fashion forward tips on how to dress for success. You’re an online Stylist. Remember, consignment boutique shops are excellent niche businesses where spending money will not break your budget. You’ll find high end fashion brands worth looking for.
I found it impossible to lose weight then tried eating eggs boiled or scrambled in olive oil and a home made smoothie in my vitamix and lost two stone in a month .
Yeah pointy shoes , I bought a pair and with in a half a hour I had lost the feeling in my toes, and it had caused damage to my toes, they might look good but the cost of damage to your feet is not worth it, it reminds me of the fashion back in the days that women should have tiny waists and used the laced up corset....which damaged their health...
I have foot issues. I simply cannot wear those shoes. It won't happen. I would be crippled in them which is also not a good look. I guess I will never be able to look elegant.
@@ginalowe1924 That is because you did not buy the right size or bought low quality shoes. High quality shoes in the correct size, whatever the shape, never hurt your feet.
Pointy shoes never go out of style. High end designers are still selling them to the wealthy. However, I assume $1000 pointy shoes are more comfortable than $100 ones. 😊
@@Luv2gd2btru Any shape of shoe is more comfortable when the shoe is high quality (though 1000 USD is not necessary). One thing you cannot skimp on is shoes. Ladies who have bunions have them because they wore low quality or ill fitting shoes.
@@Protesto2012 Pointy shoes are certainly not for hiking… But if they are high quality they are very comfortable and perfect for town walking. I walk in my long pointed booties like I would in slippers.
Perhaps you are wearing the wrong size. I'm in my 60s and have worn pointy shoes for decades. I have the healthiest, youngest looking feet of most people I know including the the ones wearing "sensible" shoes.
I watched a video yesterday that argued just the opposite-no pointy shoes. I find pointy shoes sophisticated. Hack #1 however-lose weight. Nothing looks good on the tires around your belly.
Yes, exactly! The most important thing is finding what works for your personal style and comfort. Consistent exercise is not just about shrinking the belly, but it also helps improve sagging in the face, which I find to be the best benefit.🤗🌹
I bought a replica YSL in *suluxy* and the quality is superior, have no issues with bag after 1,5 years. My friend bought YSL bag in YSl store, after 9 month she went back to report that handle is broken. Other friend has issues with LV backpack, bracelet and belt. months of waiting for repair and listening complains that she wore it wrong. I made my decision about high brands. Not worth it
I agree about the shoes. A pointed toe, even in a sneaker or flat always looks more put together and elongates your legs and makes one look taller. Also, going with one color from head to toe and/or going with solids provides the same result.
Something else to think about, STOCKINGS! If you’re wearing a dress or skirt, you simply not dressed if you are wearing STOCKINGS! I don’t know when stockings became ‘Unfashionable’ but it’s tacky to go bare legged!
I agree. However, I live in the American South. It can be quite warm and humid during the warmer months. Under those circumstances, a bare leg with some self tanner or body makeup is welcome at any age. 😊
I’m old school, In the summer I won’t wear stockings when wearing a summer dress. But in the evening I always wear stockings. I fell unfinished if I don’t.
I have mixed feelings about this. I always wear hosiery in winter with my skirts and dresses, which I wear almost daily, but it’s nice to go without it in the summer. Born in 1960, we were required to always wear pantyhose to work during my career and it wasn’t all that comfortable. I do sometimes wear actual stockings, with knee garters, some days under my long winter dresses. (Stockings are two separate, long sock, pieces for the legs only, while tights and pantyhose have the built-in panty portion, too. I would rather wear these and my own silk panties than pantyhose).🙂
@@jodifrangello4574 That is correct. Stockings or tights. Except in summer and then the legs must be perfectly hairless and tanned. Even the Queen of Spain, a very elegant woman, goes with bare legs in summer.
your tips are excellent but let's also remember that the most common factor to make one look well put together is being of the right weight for your height, good strong neck, excellent posture and good hair and skin.
Exactly, thank you so much for the additional advice. These basic elements really require our consistent effort over time. What I want to say is, let's not give up and keep moving forward!🤗🌹
@@libbycollins9349 This video is made for normal people. And maybe your feet are « crippled » because you wore low quality shoes and/or not the correct size ?
@And then you end up like poor Megan Markle, with shoes too big for you !!! Your size is your size (and it can be different according to the brand, like in clothing). Besides, not all shoe brands offer half sizes in Europe, and as as we are usually more « developed » as far as fashion goes…
Styles keep coming back after a few years or even decades. lol I’ve never liked pointy shoes. Very hard on my feet. Wearing just black around your face isn’t good for most older women, depending on their skin tones. Always wear something lighter in combination with the black. Add a light colored or multi colored scarf to soften the harshness of black
I’m not a big fan of t-shirts, but the alternative doesn’t always have to be a button-front woven shirt (although I do wear those a lot). My favorite, though, is something like a soft knit, collared, Polo “shirt”. A classic, pointed collar adds polish and highlights the face. Silk knit ones are my favorite, but are hard to find - Lily Silk has some, I wish they had more.
Ah, thank you so much for the tips you mentioned in the video! I hadn’t thought of a collared polo knit shirt as another alternative to a t-shirt. I do have one, but I rarely wear it-maybe it's because the fit of the one I bought isn’t quite right. I’ll definitely consider buying a better one to give it another try.😊👍 As for Carolina Herrera, I have to admit, she truly mastered this style, and it’s become a cornerstone of her design philosophy-classic and timeless.♥
Thank you so much for your feedback! Additionally, the fit and fabric of the shirt are also important, and adding a belt can help shape the silhouette.🤔🤔
@@JustAnotherGoddess52 Not tucking in the tight way ! Tucking in the loose way will help, on the contrary ! (and buying tops that are not too long - but that is obvious). And it is not true that « most women over 50 have big abdomens » !!! Not if you eat properly !
@@CherylsCreativeWorld33 Some… Some people are obese because of medical issues too. But that is only a small proportion. Most people have problems just because they EAT TOO MUCH/JUNK FOOD and DON’T EXERCISE
It sounds like you're referring to Diane Keaton's distinctive style, which often includes oversized clothing, layered looks, and accessories like hats, creating an unconventional, bohemian vibe. This look can sometimes be described as "eccentric" or "disheveled," but it is also a hallmark of her individuality and confidence.🥰
Yes, comfort is important too - your feet definitely deserve to be treated well. There are so many stylish options out there that are way kinder to your feet!😊♥
Remember though that if you are quite petite, many of the wide, roomy trousers shown here will make you look shorter or ‘lost’ in the fabric, even if you do wear pointy shoes with higher heels. Also, many women like myself over 50 may be getting arthritis so high heels and pointy shoes may be off limits altogether.
@ my father also had them . He never wore heels and his shoes were always high quality. You sound very Ill-informed and judgmental . By that I mean stupid.
@@justlivin404 I have very wide feet. Pointed shoes elongate my feet (and hence my legs). I have always worn them, always felt comfortable in them (I buy good quality and the correct size) and, at 77 I have baby feet !
Okay, in addition to the shirt size is important, the size of the bra is also important. For ladies with large breasts, try to choose wide shoulder straps.🌹
@@francefradet2116 Thin women can look frumpy and sloppy in a tee shirt, jeans and ballet flats. It all depends on the woman, the tshirt, the jeans and the ballet flats. Being obese is of course a desesperate case but « round » women can look put together and charming.
@@vickilindberg6336 Why no black ? Black is the best color to make beautiful stylish white hair stand out. Black is slimming and elegant year round. No need to look like a Portuguese widow.
Help! I've been out of the workforce for 10+ years and I recently went to a funeral. I didn't have any panty hose; so, I stopped at the department store to pick up a pair. THERE ARE NO MORE PANTY HOSE; ANYWHERE!!!! If I wear a longer skirt; I can wear leggings and boots. But what do we wear with a knee-length skirt and pumps?
Oh that's amazing, I would suggest buying online and choosing one of the big sites like Amazon, Shein, etc. hopefully that will help. Others don't work well as an alternative.🥰♥
Where are these women going? Retired. Not gonna wear pointy shoes or hats (hot head). Button down woven tops are not made for chesty women. Thats why we dont.
I think the best thing a woman can do is figure out her body type & dress for that. Pointy shoes don’t work for everyone, nor do hats, belts or buttoned down shirts!
@@rebeccajones8628 Pointy shoes do not harm anybody.s feet. Buy LONG POINTED shoes. The shoe is normal where your toes are, the shoe only goes further. Very elegant and comfortable.
@@gulfcoastgal6607 Not if they are well designed. Well designed pointed shoes are LONG pointed, which means the shoe is « normal » where your toes are. The point starts further. Comfortable, no harm done to the feet (hence no bunions) and visually élongates the leg. Bunions come from wearing ill fitting shoes, whatever their shape.
The point is not to make other people look poor or feel bad! . It is to look your best! If other people do not like it, too bad! Most of us can look better if we want to!
There’s no way I can get my feet into pointed-toe shoes, my toes flare out and are the widest point of my foot, the opposite of the pointed-toe shape. The best I can do is an elongated almond-toe shape.
@@KimberlyPerrotis I have very WIDE feet and have always worn LONG POINTED shoes to make them look slimmer. The point starts where my foot finishes so it does not disturb my foot at all.
No. Absolutely Do Not wear those pointed toed shoes. They are definitely bad for you your feet. It is not "wise" to wear shoes. Trust me...I've dhad 2 Bunion surgeries that did not tun out. Turn your shoe over and see what shape it is. Eventually....that will be the shape of your foot/'feet.
I'm not thin but I am working on it. I've lost 50 lbs and want to lose 20 more. My diet hack: healthy, beautiful food is elegant. It is delicious and luxurious just eating it. Take your meals on a well laid table with linens and pretty dishes (which can be picked up in a thrift store) and a vase of flowers. It makes a difference.
@@FunkyPatriot Just the contrary as it makes the woman look fatter. Showing skin/leg does not make any woman look more youthful. Only more vulgar. There is a classical proportion to respect between top (1/3) and bottom (2/3). It is called the golden ratio - or divine proportion - and is to be observed widely in art. Never heard about the golden number (1,618) ?
@@FunkyPatriot It is not more youthful at all. On the contrary. A mini skirt will not make a 50+ woman look younger, only ridiculous. And at any age it is a question of PROPORTIONS : top = 1/3, bottom = 2/3. Ever Heard of the « divine proportion »/« golden number » ?
@ No question of mini skirt. Her skirts are too short, so that the proportion is not good between top and bottom. Plus a longer skirt would be more elongating and elegant. There are rules as to what is more pleasant to the eye (ever heard about the « golden number » = the « divine proportion » ?).
I am 88, have 'silver' hair and a creamy complexion. I wear all colours except black and white. These 2 colours do not suit everyone; n😢avy and cream are my basics, always have been.
It sounds like you've found a beautiful style that truly works for you! 😊 Navy and cream are such timeless, elegant basics, and they must look stunning with your silver hair and creamy complexion. 👍🌹
All my life i hated pointy shoes. No room for toes. I love french round toe I never would put black shoes with white pants, dies not matter what is on the top D Keaton neved have been elegant. She is cool, but not elegant
My gosh, all the complaining women. Lose weight if you're not happy with the way you look. Yes tucked blouses look better than huge sloppy tops. Most pointed toe shoe that hurt also have high heels. You guys act as though kitten heels don't exist. Buy a sz larger add pads. There are pads for your toes, your arch, the heel of your foot etc. She isn't suggesting you must water your garden in heels & tucked button downs. IF you want to look more put together for a luncheon or business meeting. We all know to carry an extra pr of comfortable shoes in the event we need to walk more than we thought. Stop complaining. These are tips. Im 60, I don't have a big abdomen, I love heels. With age I've learned the brands that don't kill my feet. I carry plain white leather Cole Haan sneakers w/me.. One extra tip. A well fitting bra is key!
Looking wealthy means that everything about your appearance is deliberate. It means you can afford any type of look but you chose this. It means choosing quality.
@@mmthomas3729 Put together. Intentional. You must look in such a way that you obviously chose each piece you are wearing, and not got dressed in the dark. If you mismatch the colors, whatever price you paid, you will never look « expensive ».

Exactly, thank you so much for the additional advice. These basic elements really require our consistent effort over time. What I want to say is, let's not give up and keep moving forward!🤗🌹
Except for pointy shoes that my crippled feet can’t handle, good ideas.
Thank you for your feedback!😊🌹
@@libbycollins9349 This video is made for normal people. And maybe your feet are « crippled » because you wore low quality shoes and/or not the correct size ?
Adjusting the size to give additional space helps. I go up 1/2 size.
@And then you end up like poor Megan Markle, with shoes too big for you !!! Your size is your size (and it can be different according to the brand, like in clothing). Besides, not all shoe brands offer half sizes in Europe, and as as we are usually more « developed » as far as fashion goes…
Styles keep coming back after a few years or even decades. lol
I’ve never liked pointy shoes. Very hard on my feet.
Wearing just black around your face isn’t good for most older women, depending on their skin tones. Always wear something lighter in combination with the black. Add a light colored or multi colored scarf to soften the harshness of black
Agreed. Never, ever pointy shoes.
I’m not a big fan of t-shirts, but the alternative doesn’t always have to be a button-front woven shirt (although I do wear those a lot). My favorite, though, is something like a soft knit, collared, Polo “shirt”. A classic, pointed collar adds polish and highlights the face. Silk knit ones are my favorite, but are hard to find - Lily Silk has some, I wish they had more.
Ah, thank you so much for the tips you mentioned in the video! I hadn’t thought of a collared polo knit shirt as another alternative to a t-shirt. I do have one, but I rarely wear it-maybe it's because the fit of the one I bought isn’t quite right. I’ll definitely consider buying a better one to give it another try.😊👍
As for Carolina Herrera, I have to admit, she truly mastered this style, and it’s become a cornerstone of her design philosophy-classic and timeless.♥
Crass, vulgar, coarse language (and even slang) definitely cause the speaker to appear uncouth.
Yes, besides appearance, the way we speak is probably the most immediate way to reflect a person's elegance and inner qualities.👍
No one has pointed toes!!!!
@@MaggiePoplin-py1pl Yes, some people have pointed feet, it is called Greek feet
@@MaggiePoplin-py1pl I have pointy feet after they were deformed by wearing pointy-toe shoes as a child. I regret ruining my feet.
@@MaggiePoplin-py1pl You ruined your feet because of ill fitting shoes, not because of pointed shoes
Most women over 50 have big abdomens... tucking in a shirt is prohibited! Any other tips?
Thank you so much for your feedback! Additionally, the fit and fabric of the shirt are also important, and adding a belt can help shape the silhouette.🤔🤔
@@JustAnotherGoddess52 Not tucking in the tight way ! Tucking in the loose way will help, on the contrary ! (and buying tops that are not too long - but that is obvious). And it is not true that « most women over 50 have big abdomens » !!! Not if you eat properly !
@@solangelauthier2381some people have medical problems which makes their abdomen appear larger. Just saying, it’s not necessarily what they’re eating.
@@CherylsCreativeWorld33 Some… Some people are obese because of medical issues too. But that is only a small proportion. Most people have problems just because they EAT TOO MUCH/JUNK FOOD and DON’T EXERCISE
It can make a real difference to hold our abs in as a matter of course. It is healthier and more flattering. These muscles do respond to this habit!
I'd be frightened to look like Diane Keaton. Men describe her as dressing like a bag lady.
It sounds like you're referring to Diane Keaton's distinctive style, which often includes oversized clothing, layered looks, and accessories like hats, creating an unconventional, bohemian vibe. This look can sometimes be described as "eccentric" or "disheveled," but it is also a hallmark of her individuality and confidence.🥰
Thin helps considerably.
I will never buy pointy shoes again. I like my feet too much.
Yes, comfort is important too - your feet definitely deserve to be treated well. There are so many stylish options out there that are way kinder to your feet!😊♥
@@anitas5817 Buy good long pointed shoes and they will ne very kind to your feet.
Remember though that if you are quite petite, many of the wide, roomy trousers shown here will make you look shorter or ‘lost’ in the fabric, even if you do wear pointy shoes with higher heels. Also, many women like myself over 50 may be getting arthritis so high heels and pointy shoes may be off limits altogether.
Delighted to find your channel!
Thank you so much! It's great to have you in the mix. 🥰💞
Pointy shoes and bunions! Nooooooo 1:43
Just choose long pointed shoes (more elegant than short pointed anyway).
À big NO . This isnt élégant and parisian
@@kayecarlin9132 Why do you have bunions in the first place ? Because you wore low quality shoes and/or not your correct size.
@ my father also had them . He never wore heels and his shoes were always high quality. You sound very Ill-informed and judgmental . By that I mean stupid.
@@borghc3749 Long pointed shoes are very Parisian on the contrary. Probably you never went to Paris.
For some of us pointy shoes are so bad for our feet. ☹
@@justlivin404 I have very wide feet. Pointed shoes elongate my feet (and hence my legs). I have always worn them, always felt comfortable in them (I buy good quality and the correct size) and, at 77 I have baby feet !
Okay, in addition to the shirt size is important, the size of the bra is also important. For ladies with large breasts, try to choose wide shoulder straps.🌹
@@solangelauthier2381 After a bad ankle break and dislocated foot, 2 surgeries not possible, but agree they look lovely for those who can wear them.
@ Is it not obvious enough and has to be told in a video ?!
Thin women look classy in an old t-shirt and jeans and ballet flats. Being overweight is what kills chic. Boring but true.
@@francefradet2116 Thin women can look frumpy and sloppy in a tee shirt, jeans and ballet flats. It all depends on the woman, the tshirt, the jeans and the ballet flats. Being obese is of course a desesperate case but « round » women can look put together and charming.
No black on older women & for some women, white is not a neutral.
@@vickilindberg6336 Why no black ? Black is the best color to make beautiful stylish white hair stand out. Black is slimming and elegant year round. No need to look like a Portuguese widow.
White is a neutral.
@ Neither black nor white are classified as colors, so white cannot be a neutral color.
Help! I've been out of the workforce for 10+ years and I recently went to a funeral. I didn't have any panty hose; so, I stopped at the department store to pick up a pair. THERE ARE NO MORE PANTY HOSE; ANYWHERE!!!! If I wear a longer skirt; I can wear leggings and boots. But what do we wear with a knee-length skirt and pumps?
Oh that's amazing, I would suggest buying online and choosing one of the big sites like Amazon, Shein, etc. hopefully that will help. Others don't work well as an alternative.🥰♥
Melania sets the standard. So sophisticated.
Completely agree with you ❤
Lol! Bare legs, too much make up and straggly hair... Melania looks cheap. Always.
As a woman, you must be less to be more.
🤫
I completely agree. True elegance often lies in simplicity-less can indeed be more.👍
Where are these women going? Retired. Not gonna wear pointy shoes or hats (hot head). Button down woven tops are not made for chesty women. Thats why we dont.
@@elizabethlanders4476 Hats are fun and stylish in any season. Find the hat suitable for the season (felt or straw)
Carolina Herrera once got praise for wearing a nice white shirt with an evening skirt. Fine, but she wears this almost every day since then.
Demasiado rápido las fotos😢
‘wealthy’ - is a down market word - rich people are just rich.
Notice how these women never have purple, green, pink or blazing red hair, or tons of jewelry or tattoos? If you want to look cheap wear these.
I think the best thing a woman can do is figure out her body type & dress for that. Pointy shoes don’t work for everyone, nor do hats, belts or buttoned down shirts!
Could you please do a video for petites? All of the women pictured are those elegant creatures who are 5'10".
OK, thank you so much for your suggestion, that's a good idea.😊👍
😊
😊🌹
Pointy sleek shoes give you bunions !
@@rebeccajones8628 Only if they are low quality.
@@rebeccajones8628 Pointy shoes do not harm anybody.s feet. Buy LONG POINTED shoes. The shoe is normal where your toes are, the shoe only goes further. Very elegant and comfortable.
Thank you so much ! Your overall expressions are totally amazing! I’m a convert to your great taste ❤️
Thank you so much for the sweet words! 😊 I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoy our videos. 🌹
It doesn't have to be as the one showing on the video. But not too pointed or roundy.too rounded. Anyhow, i did enjoy your video. I just subscribed!
Thank you so much! It's my honor.🤗🌹
@@mariemason8984 Pointed shoes elongate the leg, rounded shoes shorten it.
Pointy shoes ruin your feet-- like COMPLETELY mangle. Its terrible. I think any good quality shoe is what looks expensive.
Pointed shoes permanently move the bones in your feet
Bunions are not calluses they are bones sticking out!
@@gulfcoastgal6607 LONG POINTED shoes do not give bunions at all. They are normal were the toes are, thé point starts further, elegant and comfortable
@@gulfcoastgal6607 Not if they are well designed. Well designed pointed shoes are LONG pointed, which means the shoe is « normal » where your toes are. The point starts further. Comfortable, no harm done to the feet (hence no bunions) and visually élongates the leg. Bunions come from wearing ill fitting shoes, whatever their shape.
Lost me at the shoes 🙁
Pointed shoes equals bunion feet😂
@@janet8182 Only if the shoes are low quality or wrong size or wrong fit - or altogether
Oh, and Carolina Herrara.
Nope not wearing heels!
Same
The point is not to make other people look poor or feel bad! . It is to look your best! If other people do not like it, too bad! Most of us can look better if we want to!
Yes, that's right! You've expressed this very clearly.😊👍
There’s no way I can get my feet into pointed-toe shoes, my toes flare out and are the widest point of my foot, the opposite of the pointed-toe shape. The best I can do is an elongated almond-toe shape.
@@KimberlyPerrotis I have very WIDE feet and have always worn LONG POINTED shoes to make them look slimmer. The point starts where my foot finishes so it does not disturb my foot at all.
A hat??! Not many women have or can wear a hat. They give me a headache! Dianne Keaton and her hat is just plain annoying.
I can’t walk in heels!
Why do videos with beautiful people who aren’t average?
Shouldn’t you be helping the average woman?
Won’t be watching your videos anymore
Thank you so much for your comments and suggestions, I will continue to improve it.😊❤️
No. Absolutely Do Not wear those pointed toed shoes.
They are definitely bad for you your feet.
It is not "wise" to wear shoes.
Trust me...I've dhad 2 Bunion surgeries that did not tun out.
Turn your shoe over and see what shape it is. Eventually....that will be the shape of your foot/'feet.
Oh, that's definitely something I hadn't considered. What kind of shoes do you usually wear?♥
@@girlygirlwoman Bunions are not due to pointed shoes - unless they were ill fitting
Work for the worldpeace and climate. You will have other problems without water. Women of the world! Think about your children!
You gotta be thin thin thin
I'm not thin but I am working on it. I've lost 50 lbs and want to lose 20 more. My diet hack: healthy, beautiful food is elegant. It is delicious and luxurious just eating it. Take your meals on a well laid table with linens and pretty dishes (which can be picked up in a thrift store) and a vase of flowers. It makes a difference.
Many of the super rich slop around in shorts and t-shirts. Look at Bill Gates etc.
Look at B.Gates? 😮 A philanderering, Alfred E. Newman. I don’t think so. 😊
We need to wear clothes accordingly our bone structure, therefore pointed shoes are looking good on some types and not on others.
CH wears her skirts too short. The proportion top/bottom is not good.
BUT it's more youthful.
@@FunkyPatriot Just the contrary as it makes the woman look fatter. Showing skin/leg does not make any woman look more youthful. Only more vulgar. There is a classical proportion to respect between top (1/3) and bottom (2/3). It is called the golden ratio - or divine proportion - and is to be observed widely in art. Never heard about the golden number (1,618) ?
@@FunkyPatriot It is not more youthful at all. On the contrary. A mini skirt will not make a 50+ woman look younger, only ridiculous. And at any age it is a question of PROPORTIONS : top = 1/3, bottom = 2/3. Ever Heard of the « divine proportion »/« golden number » ?
@@solangelauthier2381 I didn't see her in one "mini skirt". She looked sensational in each clip in this video.
@ No question of mini skirt. Her skirts are too short, so that the proportion is not good between top and bottom. Plus a longer skirt would be more elongating and elegant. There are rules as to what is more pleasant to the eye (ever heard about the « golden number » = the « divine proportion » ?).

Black, white and grey look awful with my clear, bright appearance.
Yes, skin tone is also an important factor in determining which colors suit us best. What's your favorite color?😘🌹
Yes, giving yourself bunions can become expensive.
Why does it always take so long to get to the point, and then over explain?
I am 88, have 'silver' hair and a creamy complexion. I wear all colours except black and white. These 2 colours do not suit everyone; n😢avy and cream are my basics, always have been.
It sounds like you've found a beautiful style that truly works for you! 😊 Navy and cream are such timeless, elegant basics, and they must look stunning with your silver hair and creamy complexion. 👍🌹
All my life i hated pointy shoes. No room for toes. I love french round toe
I never would put black shoes with white pants, dies not matter what is on the top
D Keaton neved have been elegant. She is cool, but not elegant
@@daskapital3532 Round toe shoes are the best to shorten your legs
Finally, we saw Melania! Very elegant!
😂
@janedelaney4327 of course I care.
Who she is😂
@@cathychen7193 funny indeed
Yes, ‘finally’. The disappearing, absent, invisible First Lady.
As a large busted person, I cannot ware a button down shirt. It will gap in the front or it has to be so large it looks ridiculous.
@@beverlygean5678 What about the correct size ? Not too small (= not gaping) and not too large (= not « ridiculous)
My gosh, all the complaining women. Lose weight if you're not happy with the way you look. Yes tucked blouses look better than huge sloppy tops. Most pointed toe shoe that hurt also have high heels. You guys act as though kitten heels don't exist. Buy a sz larger add pads. There are pads for your toes, your arch, the heel of your foot etc. She isn't suggesting you must water your garden in heels & tucked button downs. IF you want to look more put together for a luncheon or business meeting. We all know to carry an extra pr of comfortable shoes in the event we need to walk more than we thought. Stop complaining. These are tips. Im 60, I don't have a big abdomen, I love heels. With age I've learned the brands that don't kill my feet. I carry plain white leather Cole Haan sneakers w/me..
One extra tip. A well fitting bra is key!
pointy shoes!!!! EGADS!!! i had my toenails removed cuz of those from back in the 60's...ouch!!!
@@suzizuki Because yours were lousy shoes. I have worn high quality pointed shoes all my life, I am 77 and I have baby feet…
@@solangelauthier2381 i wear italian heels..glad you have great feet..
Why didn’t we see any photos of the woman speaking , so we can see how she dresses? And Victoria beckham is not a *great* singer … 😅
So my pants are hanging over my shoes so I’m walking on the back ends of my pants and that looks classy I don’t think so
Pointy-toed heels on women over 50? Maybe for a special occasion, but most women over 50 can't wear heels much anymore, much less point ones.
@@kindking8009 77, wearing heels and pointed shoes without any problem.
😂😂😂 HER PRODACTS ARE EXTREMALY EXPENSIVE 😂😂😂
Why do we have to look "expensive" or wealthy? Is it to make others feel poor or unworthy?
Excellent question. It always baffles me. Style, flare, creativity is for anyone.
Looking wealthy means that everything about your appearance is deliberate. It means you can afford any type of look but you chose this. It means choosing quality.
@@mmthomas3729 Put together. Intentional. You must look in such a way that you obviously chose each piece you are wearing, and not got dressed in the dark. If you mismatch the colors, whatever price you paid, you will never look « expensive ».
Quality over quantity. And, good grooming.
Very good point
What the flip is all this “ELEVATING” if you’re 5’7” with 33’ legs further elevation and kids will start asking you to get their ball off the roof😳
