Hey awesome ones, Heather here and today I'm going to be a mythbuster. You know
like...who are 'they', who say that at a women at a certain age cannot wear skinny
jeans or jean jackets or skorts. Well I'm really going to try to just do something
about that rule and bust it right out of here. I'm going to show you five of
the outfits that I love that include some jean outfits and it all starts in
just a few seconds.,
So one of the things about being a mature woman is that you get to the
point, like don't you really, where you just don't give a damn what people think
of you. I'm not really saying to go ahead and wear 8-inch heels that you can
hardly walk in or maybe one of those micro mini skirts, but you know when it
comes to denim and jeans I say pick your own choices. So I'm really excited to
show you five looks of jeans and denim that I've put together for you. The
only thing not in this group are those ripped jeans. Do you feel like me.
I'd really like you to let me know in the comments here because those ripped
torn knees falling out of the jeans look, I really thought it was just gonna be a
fad. It was gonna be gone. But it's been hanging around for years. So do you wear
the ripped jeans or are you like me that you grew up in a time when you
ripped your jeans you put a patch on it. I don't know maybe I'm just old school but
I really like to know what you guys think about that. These jeans that
I'm going to show yo,u some of them are like...oh my gosh...she's wearing skinny
jeans...oh my gosh she's wearing a skirt, but you know what? When I put these on in
the morning I know I am not really passing any boundaries. I feel really
really good about myself and I really feel youthful. So for my first look I
thought I would show you guys a pair of skinny jeans. You know how long it took
me to get a pair of skinny jeans? I really really like these and sometimes
you just have got to go into the change room and really try them on. I made up
three...okay I'm not supposed to tell you rules but for me I made up three rules
for wearing these skinny jeans. Number one: They've gotta have a lot of stretch in
them. Number two: Like if you're about my size they gotta be a little more on the
darker kind of color. You know just to do that slimming thing.
Number three: Cover your butt. I also found a high-waisted version of
this and so that really helps to bring my tummy in a little bit. I wanted to look a
little bit sexy with this outfit, so I have a nice flowing...it's almost like a
men's shirt, but it's more of a chiffon material and yeah I put it on
the last button that still makes me look presentable. I put a pair of
blue aviator glasses there as well. So it's kind of got a menswear feel here.
And hey I'm wearing this new denim jacket or I guess denim look jacket with
this outfit. I really like the way that it puts it all together.
Also look at those gladiator sandals that I matched with it. I just absolutely
love them. And why not just add a little bit of jewelry. Some big dangle earrings
here and I don't need a necklace because I've got the aviator glasses kind of like my
necklace, but I did find a beautiful silver bangle to add to the look. So for
my second look I thought I would do kind of a...'walk the dog'...look and here is me
and little Hurricane going for a walk. Let's take a look at what I'm
wearing in this video. What I have is a skort. Now that's not shorts and it's not
a skirt. It's actually a skirt with shorts underneath it. And if you're
saying to yourself, Oh Heather no, you know I couldn't wear that, that's too
short .Well just go to any golf course and check out some of these older ladies.
I bet you any money you're gonna find most of them are wearing skorts. Now
again this denim or blue Jean material it's really comfy. It's also stretchy and
I paired it with a very comfortable white t-shirt. You know wearing white
with jeans is just absolutely always going to work for you. It's so really
well put together. I also just put on a pair of white
sneakers. It just gives it that casual Flair. And don't forget to wear
your sunscreen and also your Fitbit. So for my third look let's take casual
Friday to a whole new level. Or casual Saturday or
Sunday or whatever. I have paired this dress with the traditional kind of jean
jacket. I really find that if you want longevity
out of your jean jacket go for the traditional style.It actually lasts
for decades. On this jacket I've got this cute little frog broach. I'm crazy
about frogs. Look at this. I got this at a craft show and he's got a cute
little umbrella. I don't know if I'm gonna be able to find anything like that
for you. Remember underneath the video in the description
we're going to have links to very similar jean items that we have here and
accessories, so we want to do that for you. So let's get to the va va voom
part. So let's say it is casual Friday and you were there at work or wherever you
are and you have your jean jacket on. You have your little scarf and you don't
want to go home and put on the little black dress for a night out on the town.
Well all you got to do is take off that scarf and take off that jacket, va va voom here you
are. Check out those strappy sandals that I'm wearing. They still go with the
look and wow what a transformation. My fourth outfit is one of those casual
all day outfits and you'll see in this little clip that it really is you know
it's kind of an all weather kind of jacket. Well it's a hoodie actually that
you're wearing and who says we can't wear hoodies at our age.
Absolutely love this outfit. I've got a little white tee underneath of it and
I'm wearing this with boyfriend jeans. Right now like it seems that
anything goes with jeans. So yep the boyfriend jeans are still working for us.
So this is the perfect look for a warmer weather day. And if you have your car,
let's say you're going to the beach or you're going to a patio or meeting
friends, the hoodie could stay in your car until it gets more chilly at night.
And we know it really gets chilly at night. Maybe you have a crossbody bag
that you can just sort of roll it up and tuck it in and what if it starts to rain.
Well no problem...... you got the hoodie.aAd you know what I
also like? These Converse sneakers. You know you might think to yourself, okay
she's really trying to look really young here. I'm not.
I love these sneakers. When I put them on I just...I kind of have this fun side, so
I'm wearing them. And talk about owning a look. You know be your authentic self
and yes I grew up in the hippie generation. So I absolutely love this
look. And the pants have a little bit of a flare to them and did you know that
bell-bottoms are back. I'm talking about the big flared bell-bottoms. This
doesn't have a huge flare to it but still kind of gives me that retro 70s
feel. And of course the pants do have stretch in them. I added a pair of
boots to this. I kind of feel with the flares that having a little bit
of a higher heel works. I also have a matching belt to the to the boots. And of
course the white shirt underneath and a little bit of turquoise jewelry on my
ears. And on my wrist a few bangles. I really feel like I'm
like a back in the 70s again. it's a youthful feel so go ahead and own
it. And this fringe jacket, did you ever have one of those? Well I've been wearing
this jacket for about a year now. I absolutely love it. Everybody keeps
saying where'd you get that. So I'm in style. So if you have a look that's
authentically you especially when it comes to jeans or denim, just own it and
if you hear them saying that a mature woman shouldn't wear this or that
or jeans over a certain age, whether you say it under your breath or
whether you actually say it to them, say...get with the pro Age movement buddy. You know like I
own this and I'm good for it. My message here with all of these videos is
I want you to be happy. I want you to be vibrant. I want you to just have this
amazing and awesome life in this chapter of your life. And someone else
who's pretty happy and vibrant with his life... it's our little yorkie
Hurricane. Whenever Hurricane comes on the scene...you know the cuteness
factor...he's here to remind me to tell you of upcoming videos. By the
way if you like this kind of video don't forget to subscribe below and click on
the bell and you'll be notified when the videos come out.
On Fridays we have the beauty and fashion videos and we have...oh I'm
getting all the waterproof makeup together for a waterproof makeup video.
It's been really kind of hard to find some of this stuff, but I have found most of
it now and even if you just want to wear waterproof makeup in the humidity and
also you don't have those raccoon eyes going on. Also I've got quite a few
more fashion videos. I know you guys love the fashion videos so they're coming up
as well. And for our Tuesday videos as you know they are lifestyle videos and
we're going to be doing some traveling. I've seen a lot of votes for London.
We're really thinking of London. Have you ever thought about going to Paris or
have you been to Paris because we're thinking...right Bill?...that if we're going
to be in London we might as well just hop over and do a video on Paris as well.
So that's really what we're thinking about doing. Put in the comments what you think
about that. Have you been to Paris? Have you been to London? Do you live in
London? Do you live in Paris? We would really really like to know and help us make those choices.
So until next time...get yourself a new pair of stretchy jeans or maybe a pair
of capris or a skort, or something along those lines. You know when I put on my
jeans I just feel youthful and that's that's one of the
main points of what I'm trying to get across here. Feel vibrant...if I could
talk right. Feel vibrant...vibrant... yes Hurricane. Okay I'll skip over that
word. Feel youthful and keep it awesome.
