Hi awesome ones and welcome welcome to my channel where I really help you to look and style
and even feel awesome over 50. And by the way I would love love love for you to come on down
and join us here in our community. All you have to do is click on I think it's down there somewhere
the subscribe button and join us. Now I know that many of you really enjoyed the video I did well
it was several weeks ago on styles that really age us. So what I thought I would do today is
give you nine more examples of wearing fashions that really make you look older and of course
as usual I'll show you how to fix them. Now just before I show you my older looking outfit I just
want to remind you that you might see yourself in the before pictures and you know what? That's okay.
Remember I'm bringing these clothes out of my own closet so I've worn these clothes before myself
but I wanted to make a change and I really hope that you do too. My wish is that you you bring your
looks from drab to fab and you just feel amazing as you walk out the door. So let's take a look at
that older styling outfit. Okay so here I am and if you go to any airport and see the older women
waiting for their flight especially in the summer months this seems to be the uniform of choice.
Now what makes this outfit aging...well it's actually got seven aging style mistakes attached
to it so let's take a closer look starting with that blouse. Now this might have been a really nice
look for us especially you know for business but really it's way too conservative especially for
summer with this bow here. And also the next thing, mistake number two is the loud and large floral
print on it. You know I know that there are a lot of young people that are wearing this kind of
look but when we put it on it just sort of says old lady. Next let's look at mistake number three
the leather belt and the tuck-in. This leather belt is doing nothing for the look of my outfit
or of course my belly. Belts like this around the waist they look constricting and outdated.
And mistake number four is wearing low rise undies especially if they're in the wrong color.
What you want to wear especially with white pants are a higher rise panties or
undies and something in a skin tone is a lot better for wearing anything in a lighter color.
Mistake number five has got to be the capris. Why do they still even make these pants?
They are not attractive they cut you off at the thickest part of your calves. And like wear a
longer pair of pants or a skort or a skirt or even longer flowing shorts anything but these.
Now I may sound a little crazy here but don't throw out those capris. What?? No keep them because
I keep mine and I wear them when I wear tall boots. Let's take a look. So check out how I don't
need to tuck the bottom of my pants or my long jeans in as much with capris. Isn't that awesome.
So what's the next mistake? Mumber six in this outfit well it has to be the dark boat shoes.
Let's take a look. They are just too dark for this outfit and dark sneakers wouldn't work either.
They actually cut me off at the feet and a white pair would have worked or maybe even
a pair of white sneakers. Now looking at those shoes did you guess mistake number seven? Well
it has to be those socks and even though you know they're really I was really trying with those and
they're not ankle socks, you can still see them. Because you can see the socks it's really going to
age you. Now you're probably saying to yourself okay, all right, so I won't wear any socks but
you don't want to do that because in no time you're going to have
stinky sneakers or shoes and we don't want that. So I have two tips for you on what to do
and my first one is of course this is my favorite one is to get you know those little Dr. Scholl's
inserts and put them into your shoes and then it really really does absorb all the stinkiness.
And you know when they're dirty you just throw them away. The second idea and a lot of women wear
these are these little sockets and they're also a great idea again they're a no-show kind of sockette.
Just watch it though if you have big feet because sometimes they tend to slide off. I'm a size 10
sometimes i'm even a size 11 and i do find that a little bit. Now I've showed you the don'ts
but it wouldn't be a Heather video if i didn't show you the do's. So hey and don't forget I also
have two more aging mistakes still to show you after this. So ta-da here is the updated look
I'm wearing a top with a smaller pattern on it and I could make a bow out of the ties but I'm just
going to leave them. This blouse has a nice flare to it so I've kept it over the top of my pants
and even though these are pull-on I could put a stretchy belt underneath if I wanted to
and for the pants well I just rolled them up. It's a nice stretchy pair and I added the
no-show undies and the sockettes and added a pair of keds sneakers.
Now let's take a look at the before and after videos. They are so revealing not only do I
look younger but I feel put together in the after and that also gives me quite a bit of confidence.
And by the way most of the after pieces that I was showing are going to be underneath the description
of the video or also in the comments. And if you are looking for you know you really want
to find some makeup and you want to find some fashions even housewares I have a storefront
on amazon. It's at amazon.com/shop/awesomeover50 and all my faves are there. There's hundreds of items
for you to take a look at and also don't forget when you're there you're going to find my live
events and a link to about 40 of the live events that i've done. Again that url is amazon.com/shop/awesomeover50
It's a place where and oh let me just add this too, 8pm Wednesdays
every Wednesday eastern standard time that's when I do my live events. But
you know this page the storefront is a place where a lot of women over 50 they really enjoy shopping
there and i kind of hope that you do too. All right so let's take a look at mistake number eight
and that's trying to make a matchy matchy kind of monochromatic look. Now
any color that really makes you look like you're wearing a pantsuit that's going to age you but
especially a white pantsuit. So as you can see adding this jacket just makes me look older
and it's actually not the jacket's fault it's the way I style this outfit. Let's swap out the white
pants for a pair of jeans and put on a turquoise cami. Now I have a much trendier look going on
and by the way stay until the end screen of this video where I'm going to have a link to... remember
that video I talked about that I did a few weeks ago where I'll have seven other aging mistakes
for you to take a look at. Now let's take a look at my next mistake which are choosing our sunglasses.
You know sunglasses are so important to protect our eyes but they also can kind
of make or break an outfit. Take a look at this functional but not fashion forward pair.
Now look at the trending aviator glasses. You know I think the new top gun movie
had something to do with this fun trend. Do you remember what Maverick said in the
very first top gun when he put on those aviator glasses? Well he said. "I feel the need for speed".
Just a little blast from the past there. Now if you do remember the original top gun movie
chances are you have been in a bit of an aging style rut and and that's why I'm here and you know
what even as a former fashion model I went there too and then a few years ago I started doing these
videos and I started to buy up fashion and really look at the trends and everything and I just I
just felt so so good and I thought to myself I've got to keep on sharing this with everybody. Now this
is what I do for a living and I just have to tell you that you really really make my day when you
you watch the videos and you're in the comments and I just want to keep on being here to help
you look great, help you feel a lot younger, give you some confidence and of course keep it awesome.
