Hi! I'm only 41, but definitely struggling to avoid the middle age frump & figure out how to transition into mature, stylish, flattering clothing choices. As soon as I turned 40 I became very aware of how nice it is to look good without dressing like a 25 year old, lol! I appreciate the efforts to continue being stylish as we age. I feel like our society has just started slowly abandoning efforts to look halfway put together & is just looking sloppy. My grandmother worked hard to look as put together as she could even into her 70's and while I didn't appreciate it as a kid, I do now! I think it's important to our psychological health to keep caring for our outer appearance to some degree, weather we decide to follow trends or not. It just keeps us feeling good, which will improve our attitudes about everything else, too. So great job on keeping up with that! But, I have to say that the comments on this video are so overwhelmingly nasty! People getting all butt hurt & talking like a bunch of cranky, jealous teenagers! What's up with that!? We're all middle aged, we should be beyond that crap! If you don't like her video then go watch something else! Don't listen to that stuff Marnie! To everyone complaining & being salty: 1: Please don't be nasty. If you don't agree with the ideas presented, that's ok. These are just some ideas for possible outfit choices. We may dig all the ideas, we may not. There's no need to loudly and rudely complain and insult the creator. We're too old for middle school behavior. 2: Geez, I have never seen so many people so desperate to cling to their dern cardigans and capris! My goodness! I agree that capris are an outdated style, though they work well for some. That's ok! She's just making a suggestion! And there are trendy, flattering ways to wear summer/ warm weather styles without it being capris. I get it, I don't look great in shorts either but if you're sensitive about your capris maybe you're not happy with how you dress & it's time to try out some other styles. If not, just own your love for them. Let's be honest with ourselves and own our own insecurities & struggles & fashion taste. 3: Yes, life creeps in and changes things. I care for a now invalid mom, work 50 hrs a week, & fatigue, bad food choices, & heath issues have caused my 5'7 frame to go from a trim 140 lbs to a bulky, poochy in weird places 220. I am not totally happy with how I look. I sure as heck don't look as good as I used to & am fringing on frumpy. Losing a bit of weight would help me look and feel better for sure. I'm the first to admit I need to watch my weight. No shame in us admitting this. And using excuses only keeps us from improving ourselves. We won't ever look like a beautiful, thin 20 year old, and that's ok! We'll look like the mature classy ladies we are! But even with this weight gain & body change, I can work on my figure/ health (even if it's only a little) and still find stylish, flattering clothes and so can you. Not all these presented styles will work for you, and that's ok. Find something that does. There's no reason to be salty. 4: If you don't like where you are or how you look, work on changing things. Even small changes can make big differences. You are not stuck, I promise! When we constantly look for ways to improve what we don't like we will start to feel better and more confident and will be less bothered by the opinions of others.

@AlisMarsaili1351 Рік тому

Gurllll I agree about the comments. This attitude that we all need to look like models or KK with a perfect body walking the streets with tight really tight spanx or spandex with a bra is ok when your trying to sell your product and you have security with you is ok. School? Work? Maybe a maxi light easy jacket or cardigan lol over that may look better? I don’t like cardigans I tried but they don’t work for me. I didn’t want to complain trying to be helpful. Work with your natural beauty and give thought about who you are with strength and confidence that will help with what you are trying to pull off. We all know confidence helps you to look good too. How do you feel in your clothes? Does a certain piece cause you to stand up straight? To walk differently? I’m old and also used to model so just sharing some life experience.

I love slim fitting 3/4 length sleeves, v-necks, and slim pants. These visually elongate my body and look polished and professional, casually chic, or sporty depending on the color combination. I'm a 70 year old engineer and am told I come across about 25 years younger. I'm only going for energetic and fit. The important thing is to figure out what makes us look "frumpy" and avoid that, which for me is short sleeves, patterns, capris, and sweaters.

I’m about to turn 55 and I wear whatever I want. I live in Florida where it’s hotter than hell all year round and makeup melts down your face, so why bother? I don’t wear 3/4 of the things I have in my closet, including using designer handbags. Just throw on a Bila dress with the big floral prints, flip flops, and a crossbody and you’re off. Priorities change as you age. Instead of investing in designer high-end trends that someone says will be out in two months, I’ll spend my money on quality art supplies, travel experiences, and buy things that have more meaning to me, like say a big chunky bracelet with a turquoise stone. 😂 I personally love thrifting or buying resale for my clothes.

No woman wants to look frumpy…that’s a fact. But, as a plus sized (18/20) woman of 57…I think the clothing and especially shoe industries need to hear our voices. Why aren’t affordable 44D bras pretty? Why aren’t shoes that help those with plantar fasciitis comfy and cute?? Many of us need comfort over 50…that should not have to mean frumpy. I think 3/4 sleeves and capris are a preference…not a trend. The best accessories are a smile and a positive attitude…that’s what people will remember!

@rozogden3165 Рік тому

Couldn't agree more. If it's 90° outside and you don't look great in a regular short then capris are the only other option, in my opinion. Those shoes with the shorter length pants looks hideous. I'm sorry but I don't show my crepe, sagging arms in a capped sleeve. I actually like a sleeve that is at the elbow.

@michellet822 Рік тому

I wear black ballet flats, loafers and black capris or straight cut pants , Audrey Hepburn style a lot. It’s a classic look that never dates. Certainly does not make me look frumpy. In fact (funnily enough) the women 25 years younger in the office very often copy my style or ask me where I buy my clothes. Makes me chuckle. I think simplicity, classic lines and block colours are the key to looking younger and always looking stylish. I rarely wear prints, really bright colours etc as they really do make me looker older. But hey…I’m also a fashion historian and collector so have seen the styles that come and go and what particular styles have remained long term as flattering items. I agree with you re jewellery. Simple and elegant is best.

I think the biggest issue is that you don’t go based on body types. Not everyone can pull off the looks you note. I have a curvy figure and even though I’m a small a boxy cardigan will make me look frumpy and old. It just really depends on your body type. You should note yours and then that way people know if they should watch based on your body type. If you really want to get more ppl then include additional body types and the type of clothing. You really can’t generalize. What you consider frumpy on you looks good on other body types.

People are either super supportive or super critical - like there's no middle ground. Marine is >50, tiny, and beautiful. I am 64 and weigh 260. Yeah.... I have those awful fat flappy upper arms. I will continue to buy 3/4 length sleeves to cover them up. Also, shorts ride up like my body is trying to "eat" them. I am continuously tugging the legs of shorts back down - in public!! The solution?? Capris!! Marine looks great in all of her videos. And the actual video is well made and edited. It's just not for me. I guess what I'm trying to say is.... If you really don't like what she has to say then WHY watch it and then leave negative comments?? Go away and watch something else. But I want to conclude by saying that Marine has a lot of great ideas to share and she should not allow herself to be hurt or intimated by negative comments. Not even mine. Have a great day!!

Totally disagree with you re sleeve length ! 3/4 sleeves are much more flattering than wrinkled looking attempts at rolling up full length sleeves - which never stay in place anyway ! To me a 3/4 sleeve makes arms look slimmer and showcases a narrow wrist.

I’m 36 yrs old and thin, 5 ft and 95 lbs. I love 3/4 blouse shirts especially if they’re white and jean blue color. They make me look classy when I wear them with shorts and sandals or skinny jeans with short heels and pairing them with gold necklace and bracelet. I also love my cardigan shirts that stop at the waist. I work at school and wear dresses throughout the year. I’m always cold and tight cardigans with my dress make me look put together. I wear the same thing in the winter but I wear them with black tights or leggings with ankle boots. I don’t follow the newest trend but have discovered what really suits my body type and I buy solid colors so they never go out of style. And I’m more drawn to them.

There's nothing more annoying than the word "trend". If you know what works for you, just go with it. Most of us figure this out as we age, but at 36 you are hardly older. When our bodies start changing is where the challenge begins. Not many women get thinner as they age ; neither do men. Most fashion "trends" are aimed at young women.

Your comment about blush placement is so true. I'm 44 and feel like I'm aging well. However, when I did my makeup the same way I've done in the past 20yrs, I looked different, off... I realized it was my blush placement. I can't place it on the apples of my cheek anymore bc gravity took over. I resembled a literal 🤡. Meaning my makeup was just sooo noticeable like one. When I started placing it upward toward my temples, it was like an instant face lift. I also wonder why people think when you care about how you look, it's caring about what people think. I get it may be true for some but for others its quite the contrary. When I look good (based on my own validation), I feel good.

Marnie, normally I love your videos, but this one doesn't pass the vibe check. Hating on Chicos fashion that supports women in larger bodies than your own isn't the move. Did you consider that the majority of the women in your capri photo were overweight? Was it hot outside and society has convinced them they can't wear shorts? Or the 3/4 length shirts, did you try them on someone larger, because proportionally they can often look nice and again, are a cooler option. (Many women don't feel comfortable showing their upper arm or have been told it's not professional---of course only when you're above a certain weight). While I agree that dainty jewelry is more fashionable, smaller pieces can look swallowed on a larger person, and a chunky necklace can bring the attention up to someone's face. I would bet that most people choosing boxy clothing in unflattering colors likely didn't have a choice, by either size or price. Have you ever gone shopping with someone larger than a 14? As a larger person myself (5'10 18-ish depending on how much room for the bust), trying to find suits/workwear that don't have flowers as you described or animal print is difficult. As someone pointed out below, your leather gauchos break several of your rules but look adorable on you simply because you have an acceptable body to society and fashion designers. One has to ask themselves, is it flattering or is she just skinny? Most often the answer is the latter, even with people like Kendall Jenner and Zendaya and all the beautiful people in magazines. In the future it might be nice of you to work with the brands who pay you, such as Walmart, to have lines up to 5x (because that's really only a 2x because these types of influencer brand deals are usually junior sizing) and actually see clothes on different bodies. A quick exercise might be to go to Walmart and look at the differences between plus size clothing and straight sizes and ask yourself what percentage of those clothes would you CHOOSE to buy/wear. Then start the discussion as a brand ambassador.

I do want to point out a couple of observations. When you are thinner you can wear almost anything and look good in it. The exception is the leather pants you like. The odd length on the flared out pants is the equivalent to 3/4 sleeves on a blouse. It's just my opinion, No disrespect intended.

Yeah that's such a challenge, is someone stylish, or are they just thin. I generally find fat fashion accounts on Instagram etc are the most inspiring bc it's easier to see true style. Fashion is intensely fatphobic, so following people who bypass that aspect and focus on style is useful.

@cbpd89 Рік тому

Yeah, Imma have to agree. Any style that is "frumpy" can look "stylish" on someone who is really thin. You see it all the time, side by side comparisons of outfits on different sized women and the bigger woman is getting shamed while the thin woman is being hailed as a fashion icon. That's some real nonsense right there. The only way I think fashion applies differently to the old than the young is that older women who are more stylish are usually going for a classier, more timeless look. Choosing pieces that look good on them, not what is considered trendy.

They keep my arms and shoulders warm without the sleeves getting in the way. Rolling up sleeves is a pain. I never wear pointy shoes, very bad for your toes. Shoes are a very personal choice. Many older women have foot issues (some of which can be attributed to wearing stylish shoes). Wear what feels good and doesn't hurt your feet, lots of choices in footwear now a days. At the end of the day healthy pain free feet are more important than style, but with all the choices out there these days you can usually find something if not well your health is more important. 😂

The key is developing your personal style. Being "on trend" is boring. I have no desire to be on-trend. But I also don't want to be frumpy. You must put in the time to know what cuts of clothing, colors and tones, materials, patterns, and styles complement YOU. There are people who collect vintage clothing. I'm one of them. Dated looks are the point. Some people "want" to recreate retro styles. Some people are into academia, cottage-core, granny-core, nerd-core, or whatever dated vintage look they want the to achieve. The thing is if you're going to do it, go all of the way! Be bold! Be daring! Decide what your core style is and then boldly wear it with confidence. Purchase eclectic one-of-a-kind vintage pieces and mix them with modern staple pieces. Don't let society dictate to you what YOUR personal style should be. You decide. You develop it. It can be many different aspects of your personality. Wild, minimalist, maximalist, low-key, whatever it is you choose. Do you!

When we all wear what works for us and are comfortable, we all feel energetic, mobile and young. There is never a one size fits all recipie when it comes to clothing. Lastly, age is more of a state of mind more than anything, along with a healthy body. When a person dresses comfortably in clothing that suits their indvidual needs, they will naturally act youthful and energetic.

The women who get passed over for promotions and dates, as well as getting ignored by their professors, are the women that fit the stereotype of the middle-aged woman - frumpy, outdated, no style. Is it fair? No. Does it suck eggs? Yes. However, it’s the cold, hard facts. The trick to remain a contender in all aspects of life is to look as TIMELESS as possible so they can’t guess your age. Some of the tips that she said in the video may not apply to you because of your body shape or lifestyle, but her info is still relevant.

So I wind up wearing things that skim over my boobs and hips and hopefully hide my belly... so we end up in loose boxy shapeless clothes... I get enraged when people tell me to put a belt on to bring it in.... if I still had a waist I wouldn't be hiding it!

I hate 3/4 length sleeves! If you need to push them up you can’t, and if you’re cold in the air conditioning, you can’t roll them down. On top of that they’re unflattering. They make zero sense!

As a college student in 1985, I was told I was an autumn and that black wouldn't be a good color for me. So I never wore black tops until about 10 years later, when I suddenly found out I felt very chic in black. I am still a fan of mustard and fall-ish red tones, but I choose what makes me feel like I look good.

Some people NEED 3/4 length sleeves. They are better than the 3/4 length pants that are so popular now. These only look good on the skinniest of women with extraordinarily long legs. I think chunky cardigans look frumpy rather than sleek and polished.

As someone in who just had double bunion removal surgery in my mid thirties, pointed toe shoes are not the way to go. Aim for the one that leaves your toes in a natural position

Woman? Why do you need someone to tell you what to wear??? You are the only one who has your unique personality... Enjoy it. Wear whatever you want to wear! Trust me. The world will appreciate it.

You lost me when you said Chicos! I’m 60 years old with fortunately still sexy body shape. To me Chicos is what my daughters always refer to as a “Teacher” clothes store. I think some of your suggestions are way off! Here’s the thing, if you put something on and it makes YOU feel beautiful, then rock that look and let your light shine. And always compliment other women when you like their outfits. A small kind word to another woman can change their whole day. Life is stressful, let people wear what they want and be happy!

Most women know by 50 what looks good on their body....had a Chico lady just insist that a certain pant would look great on me....I had to try them on to show her that I knew they would not....big prints are 1970s...yuck....3/4 sleeves cover ugly arms....short and sleeveless are a thing of the past for me....like you said....just suggestions....

For various reasons, older women like 3/4 sleeves. Those probably won't change. Not always about feeling warm or hot.

@sh00ca 15 днів тому

Full length blouses and sweaters overwhelm my look, somehow. 3/4 lengths look way more chic. Also bulky sweaters like in the first example makes people look frumpy and older, so, it's all personal preference.

@sharynflanagan6978 Рік тому

I have worn 3/4 length sleeves at every age, from my teens to my current 62. I am tall, with very long arms, and that length is by far the most flattering on my body. And, long-sleeve shirts never, ever have sleeves long enough to reach my wrists, and folding or rolling them up to 3/4 length is the only way to normalize the look.

@bunnyboo6295 Рік тому

Yes different body types might look different in different styles over all for short round people or average that style cuts them off highlighting their problem areas.

@billieblake6227 Рік тому

I wear what I want. I wear what looks good on me. I can't always follow fashion bc frankly, I don't like it and I don't feel like giving freaking China money, hurting the environment or giving companies money who have social justice moralizations. Trends? Ha. bold, modern, etc? Find your style, find your confidence and find your life. I don't or rarely look frumpy, but guess what? I don't give a hoot who thinks what about me bc I've been to enough funerals and estate sales to know that person you try to impress? They die. They move. If they don't like you? It doesn't matter what you wear, they will be nasty. Find your style, enjoy it and to heck with the rest. Life is finite so live your life everyday to the very best you can. God bless.

Linen pants are a great alternative to capris. I am 50 and live in Florida, and loose fitting, casual, ankle length linen pants are a godsend for me. Either pull on or tailored. I get hotter in the midsection than the legs, and linen pants just feel better all around. Plenty of styles to suit different body types, too.

@dw7939 Рік тому

I would give my right boob for a good pair of well fitting ankle length linen pants. All I can find is big over full leg styles that look like gauchos.

@tracyenriquez2952 Рік тому

Can you link some cute linen pants. I would love a cute pair. I get so hot in vegas all I wear are capris. I just don't want to look older than I am. Ha ha
