I am 67 and 5'5". I could not imagine giving up my shorts. I have worn them my whole life. I do have them a little longer than I used to.
Rock on!
If you are petite best to keep shorts mid-thigh as longer shorts destroy a petite silhouette.
Hey, I rock shorts here in Florida all the time and I'm 76. I don’t even think about it. 😄
Exactly as it should be!
Also 65, I wear shorts, vests (sleeveless tops), bikinis and anything else I damn well like! I'm with you!
Amen!
I am 77 Years young and still wear shorts. I now wear Bermuda shorts. It gets very hot in Redding, CA.
It sure does! And it gets real hot here in Georgia!
I'm 74 and live in Texas where the summers are so hot. I wear shorts all summer. I love how you wear all different lengths and show that no matter the length you can still make them looks cute and classy. Thanks for a great video.
Glad you like them!
As an 80 yr old with crepey legs, I say wear them as long as you can. You have great legs, show them off.
My mom wore shorts her whole life even with crepey skin. But that’s a personal decision only you can make for yourself. Thanks for stopping by!
I'm 59 and my legs are covered in age spots. When I wear shorts, I simply don't look down 😂
I am so happy that you challenge these stereotypes. I am 54 and get tired of hearing you have to cut your hair, you can't wear this or that.
Right?! We don't turn to dust once we hit a certain age!
You always look chic Beth!
Thank you, Cathy!
You are definitely can rock those shorts!!!!
Thank you for sharing!!!
You are so welcome! Thanks for stopping by!
The outfit that I loved the most on you was the blazer with the gold buttons paired with the denim shorts!!! Tres chic 🛎️. Loved the sling backs with it! 💗
Thanks so much!!
I live in Mid-Atlantic and I love wearing shorts in the summer. I have some for hiking and some that are a little more elevated. Thank you for sharing, Beth!
I'm 62 and wear shorts pretty much all summer. I do think that when we get older we shouldn't wear them too short. It's not just about confidence, it depends on how nice your legs are. I've seen a lot of older women wearing short shorts and they look terrible. 5" in the shortest even a petite woman should wear IMO.
Honestley, it's all about your comfort level. I still love a 5" inseam and feel comfortable wearing them. Now if other women want to think I don't look good, well, that's on them.😎
Absolutely👏🏻👏🏻. I’m 63 and I wear my shorts in all different lengths, styles and colors!
Good for you! They're a great piece of clothing all summer long. Even winter with the right material!
I'm 75 and I still wear shorts, and love them. Fortunately, my thighs are not heavy so I can wear the 5 inch seam shorts. I get compliments when I wear them too!
Love that!
This is the advice I didn’t realize I needed. For the last few years, I haven’t been wearing shorts in public thinking that I’m too old. I’m going to go out confidently in my shorts!
I'm so glad the video was helpful! You're never too old and it's never too late.
No one will stop me wearing my shorts, particularly denim shorts. 🙂
Love denim shorts!
I’m 55 and wore my shorts yesterday with a tank and kimono. I just brought shorts back into my wardrobe last summer!
That sounds like a modern and fresh outfit!
Beth, you rock shorts, with your pretty legs! Thanks for being a cheerleader for the rest of us who may not be quite so lucky! Anyone one can feel comfortable in Bermuda shorts if they have the right attitude, like you!
Agree 100%!
You have LOVELY skin & look so good with arms & legs bared‼️
I'm 81 & live at the beach so I have to wear shorts to survive. Shorts are NOT my best look, but so be it...leg makeup helps‼️‼️😄
What a great attitude! Style also has to accomodate our lifestyle.
Please do an updated hair tutorial, love your sleek new style!
Will do!!
Beth, your always look so elegant. I would love for you to put together some looks of what you might wear for full days at home, seasonally. I'm not nearly as active as you, but still want to feel good about my reflection when I see it, and for those quick errands . . . Comfort, comfy, but stylish too. Thank you.
Noted!
"Confidence is the key"
Agree 100%!
Good tips! The shorter the short, the lower the heel. And the fingertips at your side = best length of short. Who knew that?? Not me!
Glad it was helpful!
One of your subscribers, thank you so much it helps me a lot. I am 64 but you give me ideas how to look younger than my age. God bless
You are so welcome!
I have never been able to figure out why anyone wears shorts with a sweat shirt or long sleeve anything! If it is hot enough for shorts, why would you need a long sleeve sweater?
If it's linen then it's not hot. It's a breathable fabric and circulates the air.
Awesome video Beth!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for stopping by!
It’s about what one’s legs look like, not one’s age. I’m 64 and show off my legs all the time, they look still look better than most American teenager’s, purely thanks to my DNA, no credit to me, except for keeping my weight down. I prefer wearing short skirts to shorts, though, I’m much more physically comfy in skirts, they don’t ride up like shorts do. Still, I wear shorts a lot, too, it depends on what I’ll be doing. Skorts have made a comeback lately, I didn’t like them in the past because of the hot, polyester panty-shorts they always had inside. But, I’ll try them again, the ones in all-natural fibers (rayon/viscose is good, too, this fabric breathes).
I've seen some really cute skorts this year. Love J.Crew's denim skort.
Activewear for over 50 please!
Noted!
My absolute favorite video this summer! Love these great looks!!
Yay! Thank you! If it's summer then time for a pair of shorts!
It is 51° and windy here in Montana this morning. You’re so lucky to be able to wear shorts this early in the season.
It's 95 today in Georgia...
I love the idea of a scarf thru the belt loops. I need to try that!
One of my favorite ways to utilitze a scarf during the hot summer months.
I miss not wearing shorts, I just have so many of those spider veins and I’m just so self conscious so I don’t wear them.
I love shorts in hot weather. I wear red cotton 5" shorts with a white cotton short-sleeved blouse, tied with a colorful silk scarf showing a seascape. I tie it in back so that the front looks like a tuxedo cumberbund. If I wear a belt, I place the buckle in the center of my back a la Brigitte Bardot, Jeanne Moreau, Anouk Aimee, Romy Schneider, Sophia Loren, G. Lollobrigida & other French & Italian actresses working in the 1950s, 1960s, early 1970s. Bardot, in particular, was a style icon popularizing what is now known as the Bardot neckline: a short colllar forming a hedge around the neck in a knit or lightweight fabric to a full, puffy ballerina knee-length skirt cinched at the waist with a wide belt & the buckle in the center of the back to ballerina flats since she was tall. Although I'm petite, I adapt whatever possible to shorts, skirts, slacks, dresses; I also belt blazers & dusters. I belt regular size jackets, wherever stylishly possible, to aapear taller.
I agree with your shorts selection from J.Crew & Banana Republic. I wear cuffed shorts & bought pleated off-white linen shorts from the latter that were shortened & eliminated the pleats for my petite frame a la Lana Turner (The Postman Always Rings Twice) with a white/cream shell along with either a wide copper belt/low-heeled sandals or chocolate brown sandals with a dark green center stone to a Missini scarf with dark brown, green, fuschia flowers/geometrics, tying it like an Obi scarf. With indoor AC, I'll wear a cream leather jacket or a short dickey blazer.
All of your suggestions are spot on. I remember the saying: If you've got it, flaunt it. I say: Adapt fashion to suit your lifestyle, shape/height & legs. "You only live once!"
So agree! Thanks for sharing!
Love this!
Glad to hear it! Thanks for stopping by!
Lol! I laugh out loud just to see you pose. I just love the way you pose. You’re the bomb!! You are lovely! My fave style influencer 😍 thx for the tips on choosing shorts lengths for petites. Love you bunches ♥️🙏🏾
Aren't you sweet?! Thanks for being here!
To grow your channel you should do shorts (clips) I love your channel ❤
I do! Check it out. I share daily looks.
This was such a helpful video. It confirms with me that I can feel confident wearing shorts, especially that it is so hot here in Scottsdale, AZ. I purchased the same Lina pleated short in natural from Banana Republic that you are looking so stylish in. I also splurged on the matching vest and I absolutely love this look. Even though I am petite, I love wearing Bermuda shorts. I now have 5 pairs in various styles all in Linen. I did purchase a pair of white chino shorts from Talbots that I equally like. I am 67 and I will continue to embrace wearing shorts. Thank you Beth for giving us mature women permission to "rock" shorts.
I love the whole Banana Republic linen line. I bet the vest looks great the shorts. Tres chic!
And you’re so right about shorts being the perfect solution for hot weather.
I always used to love shorts on me. I have long and slim legs. Then at 38 I said to me: "Well, 2 more years and then I will stop wearing shorts, just because I thought it would be "not age appropriate" any longer. But I did loved them so much... Now I'm 64, my legs are still slim and long and I still wear them. Sometimes when it's colder or in the evening, I wear them with (thin and nude now or black/grey/brown in fall/winter) tights. Yes, it looks even better when I style them elegantly.😊
Love that! Thanks for sharing! Shorts can and do look great all year long.
Yay Beth! 💛Shorts for seniors! Love the look. BTW found an adorable classy tailored shorts jumpsuit at Walmart. 💚❤️💜
Love it!! And love jumpsuits and rompers too!
Thanks for a great video, Beth! I love your chunky statement necklace! I hope they're making a comeback after several years of delicate (and always tangled) necklaces!
That's too funny! But, yes, chunkier jewelry is making a comeback.
I’m 64 and wear a 5” inseam in shorts and because I’m 5’3” it works for me. I live in shorts (mostly linen and jean shorts, linen flowy pants, and cotton or linen short dresses in the Texas heat all summer. I love J Crew’s selection of linen shorts and I recently tried Quince for the first time and love their linen pull on shorts. How do you feel about Quince’s quality? I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked it and can’t beat the prices. You look cute in everything you put on Beth! I love the scarf idea.
Give me all the linen all summer long. I do like Quince. Their price point is excellent but when I put them head to head with Jenni Kayne or FAHERTY the luxury brands are better. But they’re pricier.
I luv shorts! Especially all the brands you mentioned. I will wear them just my mother did 😊
The perfect way to stay cool all summer long!
I have a rectangular shape, but I couldn’t be farther from “athletic!” I don’t think Athletic is a body shape at all, there are other, much better terms.
athletic or rectangular are interchanged
Love your shorter hair style!
Thank you!!
Gracias, Beth por existir.
La manera de vestir que usas, es para mí fuente de inspiración.
Gracias por existir 👍💚💚💚
De nada!
I am nearly six feet and 67. I feel most comfortable in skorts. They come in talls and I have a pair in almost every color. :)
And they're so comfy!
Very Beautiful Beth!! Love you
Thanks, Sami!
I wear heels, but they’re not high, which is 3 inches or taller. I think sandals with 2-inch, block heels look great with shorts. I’m small, I want the extra height, so long as the shoes are super-comfortable. Footwear has improved so much since the pandemic, there are now lots of mid (about 2-inch) options available, for the first time in my life. I never could tolerate a single pair of high heels, the arch pain is excruciating, but I don’t always want to wear complete flats, either. A low, 1 to 1.5-inch wide heel is actually more comfy for me than flats and I can go up to about 2.5 inches.
I wear long shorts because I have unattractive legs, so I don’t use the finger rule, I’m 5’5” slim 118# and wear 13” inseam.
Wearing shorts means daily leg shaving which takes a steady hand and time. I may stick with jeans and light pants.
also good choices! skirts too!
It doesn't always mean daily shaving. There are alternatives that can allow hair removal to last longer.
You always look good. Shorts and I aren't a good paring with heavy thighs.
I understand. Style is always about personal preference. Lots of choices in 2024. Thank goodness!
Embrace aging….the alternative is not good…😊
And while we're at let's embrace aging with grace, strength and beauty!
¡Ole! 👏👏👏
Thanks for stopping by!
Dear Beth, Your fashion is beautiful, but many women have cellulite and shorts are not suitable.
I think we all have imperfections that we battle with. Style is always about personal preference and stepping out the door in confidence so I completely understand your viewpoint. The good news is there are so many fashion options in 2024.
