I’ll be purging my closet in a few weeks to store spring/ summer clothes and get out the fall/ winter. I always have a bag or two to donate to charity. I love your videos. You give usable, reasonable advice with humor. Thank you!
When I learned to sew, one thing that was stressed was to match the design at the seam. “You can tell the garment is cheap if it has mismatched seams,” the instructor said. It takes more material to match seams. I never forgot this, and am one who notices this on other people. The worst are mismatched Celtic plaids. The Celts would never do this. Some expensive garments have mismatched seam nowadays, and I think people just don’t know. So I’m glad you mentioned this in your podcast.
Small request - when donating to charity please can people store summer stuff to donate near the start of the season as many shops don't have much storage space for out of season stuff. Thank you
It’s best to ask your shop. I assumed that too but when I asked my preferred charity shop when I could bring in fall clothes and they said anytime, they put out all seasons year-round.
@TheDriftwoodlover mine said that, too. And they get cash for rags, so still send ripped and stained items. I don't put any textiles in the bin as they go to landfill.
Agree Margaret, I used to just see something & impulse buy. Now I try to think more about the fit & fabric & what else will it go with. We live and learn!!
Seam misalignment drives me nuts!!! Bravo for pointing that out. I continue to be amazed how many young women go for plaid shirts that are misaligned. My grandma who taught me how to make a plaid skirt would be appalled.
When my mother taught me how to sew, she pointed out the importance of making sure that the fabric matched at the seams and that the zipper was sewn in neatly. Like you, I notice that plaid flannel shirts, in particular, often have mismatched side seams. This video is an excellent one, so kudos to My Over 50 Fashion Life! It will serve as a helpful guide in sorting out items in my closet.
Spring/Summer.....capri pants in white and navy, stonewash jeans, white jeans, tshirts in white, pink and navy. Metallic tshirts in navy and silver for evening. Midi dresses, plain and patterned, sandals and plain trainers, chunky and plimsol. Blazers in navy and cream. Autumn/Winter.....Boot cut trousers, dark jeans, cashmere sweaters, new wool coat, parka. Boots long and short. Cord below knee skirt, satin shirts in silver, navy, red. That's my entire wardrobe at 56 years old. Always without exception worn with quality underwear. If your undies don't fit properly your clothes won't look their best. It has taken me many years to find my look and I only buy a few pieces each year. If you buy quality items and look after them they last. Most importantly, wear what you like with a smile and confidence!!!! That's my tuppence worth.
Totally agree with you on several things here. The pilling thing is one of my pet hates too. Another pet hate is dirty sneakers. On men and women! (Use dirty sneakers to garden)!
Yes! Those overlarge armholes are a big no. I have also recently added costume jewelry I no longer wear each time I fill up a bag of clothes for charity. Our taste changes with time so I don't bother to wonder what I was thinking when I bought that weird print 10 years ago. 😅
As for pilling, I use a cashmere comb which also works well on most knits, including tees. It safely removes the pills and allows for many more years of use without looking worn and tacky.
What a timely video. I just went through my closet and dresser today. I have 4 piles of clothing on my dining room table (thrift store, neighbors, and 2 for friends). It feels good to get rid of clothing that no longer fits or isn't really your style anymore.
Its a hard balance! Each age has its own look and it’s important to be mindful of that before totally getting rid. I have a fear of joining the mid blue and beige briggade 😊
Everything you mentioned is so on point. Since I became a thrifter I have become a fabric snob. After losing 25 lbs, I donated my whole wardrobe when I hit my goal, I had to begin all over again with buying my clothing wardrobe..I stopped buying fast fashion, and what a difference it has made as far as pilling, misaligned print on tops, and just all around quality of the clothes I now buy. It has been eye opening what good quality clothing feels like, washes like and fits. It amazes me I spend just $4.79 cents for a Ralph Lauren, or Banana Republic, J Crew, most of my thrifted purchases are 100% cotton, or a good quality knit. If something is Jersey or polyester I will not buy it any longer I am ironing a little more, but I am loving my new wardrobe. I donated all my costume jewelry , and only wear my 14 k, it feels good to elevate your wardrobe I have thrifted purses that are made in Italy all of them are genuine leather, I pay $5 instead of buying junk purses , it takes little money to buy wood quality once you find a good thrift store. So many of my purchases are brand new with tags
For big armholes or loose necks, I always wear a cami tank under my shirt and dresses. It helps things to lay better and absorbs sweat so my shirt doesn’t get sweaty. Also prevents bra from showing through on thing fabric. I just gave away a pair of animal print (leopard like maybe) combat boots. They looked fun and fun but too young. The problem is I have size 11 feet so the proportion is just too much for some things in larger footwear.
I agree about snakeskin - I bought some awful boots, and I don’t even like animal print! I’ve learned my lesson with fake bags too. But your best point is seam alignment. Even some quite expensive clothes are misaligned at the seams, and it looks awful.
😂😂😂😂 LMAO....you're hysterical! You've learned a lot and if the right women are watching you've taught a lot too! Anytime my husband is with me when shopping and I come out of the fitting room in a flowered print he says "old!" and I put it back. Totally agree about large armholes, with thin arms it's hard as hell to find a sleeveless top that fits so I don't bother anymore. The reason items are made with unmatched seams is because there is fabric waste if its matched which costs money. Used to be only cheap clothes were made that way but I see expensive brands doing it now a days so beware! Loved the video! Thanks
I am 5 foot two and I weigh 130 pounds, I never wear prints especially big bold prints. I only wear Britain stripes, and animal print in accessories. Great video!
Loved this and agreed with everything - I had a cheap grey snake print shirt for ages and everytime I wore it I felt awful so last week threw it in the bin 🙌🏻
You've got me cracking up lol. I think when pattern's don't line up that's a sign of a lesser quality garment. I always look for this especially when I buy striped garments.
I so needed to watch this! I thought I'd had quite a purge but am still guilty of holding on to things that no longer suit me. I also struggle with guilt of getting rid of pieces with sentimental attachment (even though they no longer work for/flatter me), guess it's all part of a process....x
The letting go of things takes time. It doesn’t have to all go “at once”. Unless you’re having a major life change like moving noise and downsizing or are a hoarder. The emotional attachment things can be paired down by using the rules of “having value, quality, when did you use it last, and do you have the space to keep it”. So eg, a locket with an emotional connection takes up very little space and can be handed down eventually but can sit in a drawer and not make clutter. But those expensive boots that just don’t go with your style anymore and are taking up lots of closet space can be donated, etc. it’s a process Don’t doubt yourself and let go when you’re ready.
I agree wholeheartedly with everything you said and showed BUT I nearly pee’d my pants a few times! Omgosh, the way you say things is hysterical.. absolutely loved this video! I’m hooked.. going to binge watch now lol. Thanks for the tips and laughs.
Thank you, it was very entertaining. My wardrobe is always drastically cut down because I constantly do it but you gave me the idea of looking through my jewelry box so that should be fun.
Classic / preppy LOOK is always in style, simple and elegant LOOK is always the look that has the spotlight on you as the most intelligent and most important person no matter where you are going .
I adore my snake print shoes (they are much darker than yours, though)🤣 I hate florals, never wear them. Buttons as decoration (gold or plastic) look cheap to me, too.
I love costume jewelry because, if a piece breaks or an earring is lost, I’m not out much money. I now live in a small rural area, so my expensive jewelry doesn’t really fit. I save the bits and pieces, and fasten them to zipper pulls or sew them onto purses that I sew. The teardrop earrings are the best.
I do like the animal print shoes even if a little unsubtle. I would wear them to lift a very plain outfit. I know what you mean about bold prints. As an artist I am drawn to very bright colour and florals but realise now that in practice I feel more comfortable in plainer (polka dots I do love) with some accessories for interest (like those shoes 😂).
I have to agree with you! Shoes, scarves, jewelry & even handbags with prints add visual interest, and up a classic, streamlined outfit to the next level in style. Great ways to add some trendy looks too. I just bought some leopard print booties I wear with classic style ensembles, and get so many compliments. Just make sure it’s good quality.
There are many good points in the video e.g. you may not want to buy your clothes from QVC 😁. But you don't want to be boring, no matter what your age. I liked the Steve Madden shoes and, for me, if they are comfortable, they're keepers.
Great video! With age hopefully comes wisdom! I have had my share of huge fashion blunders and buys for sure! Eg A dress in a bold pattern with a ridiculous uneven hemline. What was I thinking! These days I rather opt for simpler lines and a more classic look and it works!
Thank you! I don't mind cheaper to mid range clothes (not a millionaire any way.. lol) but always find the fabric does not drape, hang or wash well. Its false economy. Love the red handbag!! 0
I love heavy jersey. I ordered a blue dress that was described as jersey, but the material was so thin you could see right through it. I can't bring myself to wear it.
Thanks for all your very good examples and I had a really good laugh! I do have a few of those dresses that I have saved for our Caribbean type of vacations but did indeed just fill a bag with most of them now for a giveaway. Funny that you showed that navy/white dress as I kept one similar to this also - it is a maxi dress. I have not decided if I should shorten it or leave it long. Just curious if you group paisley prints with the large flower patterns? Would love your thoughts on the Lily Pullitzer type of prints? Will need to check some of your other videos. Gee my closet is getting smaller 😂
I have a pet peeve over pilling. They were so pretty and are so tacky with pilling. And I think I have that same blush stretchy top. I do know what you mean by it being too stretchy. Thank you! Did you say your name? You are adorable. I agree with every item you tossed. On my own I still have doubts, so it was nice to have your opinion.
Good morning ! OMG, I must do this in January! Yesterday, I thought I would wear this shiny" silver top (still had tags on it) to a Holiday Party and oooooh nooooo, I looked so so matronly, yup, going to charity and the stretchy necklace my goodness I have 3 of them, different sizes and colors. Oh well, we girls bought them 15 years ago and why do I still have them in my jewelry drawer. Anyway, thank you so much for the encouragement! Cheers and Happy Holidays
I have a couple of Patagonia blouses that were not cheap (to me) but the seams don’t match and the inside is different than the outside. I always felt good in them until now.
@@Myover50fashionlife The back of the fabric is not quite as obvious as your example and is not really visible while I’m wearing it. The mismatched pattern is very noticeable, but I had somehow never noticed it before. I’m most likely going to continue to wear these, but I’ll probably downgrade them to only around the house. I seem to have a problem figuring out what looks good on me, but I’m trying to educate myself.
Very brave of you to show past fashion choices. I think we end up buying things like the snake skin shoes with metallic and tassels because it was on sale.
lol. I laughed at the wide leg. I love them and have tried them so many times. And donated them so many times. They look terrible in me!!!! Too short. I think I have finally got it through my thick skull that I’m not 5’8”. 😂🤣😂
😊Just think of the huge amount of wasted fabric in creating garments with only matching seams. I think it’s not needed in most prints anymore. Plaids and horizontal stripes - yes.

I agree it's the first thing I notice on plaids!
I notice that sleeves are not cut out on the bias and bind your upper arm.
Can’t bear misaligned seams, need to be matched or I don’t buy no matter what the cost

As for pilling, I use a cashmere comb which also works well on most knits, including tees. It safely removes the pills and allows for many more years of use without looking worn and tacky.
I don't know about those Steve Madden snake print sandals. I think you could have made them work. With an all black outfit, or a black/white outfit.
I use some tops as pj's.

You can use a shaver to deal with pilling. It usually works amazingly well.
I agree about snakeskin - I bought some awful boots, and I don’t even like animal print! I’ve learned my lesson with fake bags too. But your best point is seam alignment. Even some quite expensive clothes are misaligned at the seams, and it looks awful.

I will be looking at my wardrobe with more 'open' eyes; lots of food for thought in this terrific video. Thank you so much for posting ~Paula
I actually like bold patterns, with plain jeans they look nice.
Sparkly plastic jewellery design it for the Xmas tree

My fave is the chartreuse collared, button placket, one - piece bodice sleeve
I love both pair of the snakeskin shoes. With a solid black dress or solid black outfit yes... I will let the shoes do the talking...
You've got me cracking up lol. I think when pattern's don't line up that's a sign of a lesser quality garment. I always look for this especially when I buy striped garments.

Good points, but that gold color of your shirt is not good for gray hair. It's for redheads.
You are right that it's not in my pallet, if my pallet is correct. I'm not sure if you watched my colour analysis 🤔.
Hello from Texas, I agree with your assessment of the big prints. This is my second of your videos today, You are very entertaining and spot on.
I agree wholeheartedly with everything you said and showed BUT I nearly pee’d my pants a few times! Omgosh, the way you say things is hysterical.. absolutely loved this video! I’m hooked.. going to binge watch now lol. Thanks for the tips and laughs.

Thank you, it was very entertaining. My wardrobe is always drastically cut down because I constantly do it but you gave me the idea of looking through my jewelry box so that should be fun.
That floral shirt looked adorable on you. I don’t think it was aging.
Yes like blue white dress works good
Classic / preppy LOOK is always in style, simple and elegant LOOK is always the look that has the spotlight on you as the most intelligent and most important person no matter where you are going .
The shoes are great! With a plain dress they’d be perfect!
Same here love the shoes, & with a plain outfit they can look classic.
Good content 😂Love your sense of humor

I have a pair myself, but without the tassels.
I agree with your views on this video. I've made my own similar mistakes,lol.
Love the shoes really
Thank you
I agree good quality plain handbag
Nooooo love blue flower top
Mmmm quite like the handbag but do agree with you copy's yes I agree
I agree with a lot of what you showed. I loathe handbags with logos (or anything with a logo). Why am I paying to advertise their brand? 🧐 😆
Get an electric debobbler. It's fantastic for lengthening the use of your garment. Do it in front of the TV x
I have a small one but its not very effective. I guess there are better ones available now. I'll look. Good idea.
Great suggestions! Here's another one, this video should have timestamps✌️
There flowers looked like sheep from distance and love ittttt

Ha ha 😅 totally agree large armholes on hairy men (or women !) is a definite no ! 😀
Lately busy prints make me dizzy. I've been getting rid of them.
I so agree with the large arm holes 😂 and I’ve just recently started getting rid of pilled items and such.
Large armholes can be fixed by wearing a cami or tank top underneath

I have a couple of Patagonia blouses that were not cheap (to me) but the seams don’t match and the inside is different than the outside. I always felt good in them until now.

i find it very relaxing to de pill clothes
Liked the peach jersey on you.
Oh thank you!
I'm a fan
😊Just think of the huge amount of wasted fabric in creating garments with only matching seams. I think it’s not needed in most prints anymore. Plaids and horizontal stripes - yes.
Large prints, plaids, checks should match. Small patterns not so much. Quality items use more fabric and you can usually wear a smaller size.
Baggy jumper over the top boots
Anything with pilling can be like new with one of those pilling shavers…..
Yes, i bought one this week. Much better nowadays than the small plastic battery things we had 20 years ago.
Navy great
Fun video, and informative! I especially liked the descriptors and humor at tops with big armholes! Lol! Hilarious! Thanks for the laugh! 😂
Glad you enjoyed it!
Those mustard wide leg trousers, I do the same thing !😊
