How do I grow out my hair? The pep talk you need
I trimmed the last bits of my dyed ends off two and a half years ago, no regrets! I love my “bride of Frankenstein” streaks that are slowly coming in, and my already very ashy hair color is getting cooler by the day. Also, not touching up roots and redyeing all the time rules.
OMG!! I usually watch style vids while playing Wordscapes. I had to close the app and pay attention, the commentary, and style ideas had my full attention! Love Queen Baddie!!
Diana,did you have to have speech therapy?
I feel prettiest when I’m carrying my children in my arms, when I’m making them smile and laugh.
When I hit fifty I really stopped caring what people thought of me. I think that when I was younger I would SAY I didn't care, but I finally started to believe and LIVE it when I got older. A big part of that was dressing how I wanted, ignoring the so-called rules for fashion, hair and makeup for older women (in a nutshell they are spend lots of money and cover any part of yourself that might be considered "flawed') started posting makeup and fashion looks on social media without filters and you know what, the feedback has been HUGELY positive. It's given me so much confidence to know that I can be my authentic self and people will still like me and not ridicule me for "dressing too young" or being "old mutton dressed up as lamb" which are phrases I would personally like to see go away forever. It's important for younger women to see older women comfortable in their own skins. I loved the advice in this to stop dressing for the male gaze and start dressing to feel comfortable and sensual and confident. That is what is most sexy anyway! I love drop waist dresses and that whole 1920s silhouette...the flappers were the OG Queen Baddies!
Years ago I attended many artist friends’ exhibits where i am always asked if I were an artist too. I have always answered no. Then one day I answered yes, I am my own canvas. Today at 71, people always tell me how excited they are to see what I would do next. You are right, I dress for me and it is a performance that does require an audience and at the same time I don’t require affirmations. Of course I enjoy the compliments, The best one was this: You pull off a look that on anyone else will look ridiculous! My thumbnail picture is from when I was 61,
I love it!!!
Love the 1970’s Whiting and Davis mesh scarf!
The red skirt and scarf would be super cute with a black t-shirt. Would make it super office appropriate ❤
Oh Lord have mercy……… 😳
You're going to love it! I just finished my 2 yr journey to grow out, and I have 0 regrets. In fact, I hit the jackpot. I now have a white stripe above each eyebrow, and love my hair and feel cool in it for the first time since high school!
Love your video ❤❤
Thank you!!
I don't know, if you know - you make the video 😂 dead
Baby Queen Baddie here! So glad to find a community of people embracing this aesthetic 💓
Yay! Welcome! 😘
I have some lovely black and white flat lace up style shoes from Nine West, they aren't a shoe as they have nothing between the black heel and the white toe with black laces . It would look very french with this
Awesome video as I enter my Queen Baddie years! I find myself echoing these ideas as I dress for the past few months. More scarves, more jewelry, all about comfort and color!
Yes!
I tried the Elf face primer that you recommended and I’m in love!! It makes my foundation go on so much more smoothly & my skin just feels good. I’m going to order some of your other recommended skin care products. Thank you!
I'm glad this helped! I don't always wear primer but when I do, my skin looks so good!
Lovely video as always🥰 I know some very pretty people to look at but their personality is anything than pretty and it just isn’t enough for me to call them beautiful…and Beauty really goes deeper than just looks! I feel drawn to people with a good energy, with a warm attitude just their essence or soul shining through!
💯
Cheap as in money cheap? Otherwise there is no "cheap" because we are all different. I guess a colourful collier of emeralds, rubies and diamonds all bunched would be "cheap looking" ....you could call it lack of taste but is it? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder....other than that your vid clip is educational.
My father 100%. The list of people he manipulated out od their pockets and business deals included family is long. Indeed, ita the coldness, patiens, sadistic undertone and 0 remours is terrifing
There is a reason actors say never work with children or animals! Love the wide leg gold/bronze pants, an alternative to a party dress when you don't want to shave your legs. I'd call those polka dot pants palazzo pants, not capris, which are slim fitting (and coming back into style). Your scarves are gorgeous, too. I own a wine leather mini skirt and forest green faux leather midi skirt which I've never worn. Need colder weather, but you reminded me that I had them. One vintage item I never see but which my mother always wore is culottes. Very practical but dressier than pants.
Soft pants video? Yes please! I’m loving your channel and get good ideas here each time. But-I’m sad that I’m not finding places to thrift.
Try thrifting when you travel. Each city is so different!
This PERFECTLY describes what I'm going through right now. I'm definitely in my cocoon after watching my daughter go off to art school in FRANCE! SO PROUD of her but feeling so sorry for my loss of self...of purpose. I've been dragging for months...trying to lose weight and failing at every turn. Feeling discouraged. And unsure of what to do with my free time. How do I define myself now as a single 51 year old unmarried woman? Your video helps so much. Thank you!
❤😘❤ aww, well definitely hang out with us! It's a journey not a destination!
Well said!
Thank you!
I would have said you leaned warm, but when you put on Twig - wow! - it definitely compliments your skin!
Aureum mediocritas. Thank you
I agree with so much of what you say! I particularly love giving others compliments! What have we to lose in giving someone else the joy of knowing they look stunning or funky, or cool today! Thanks for your encouragement to be fearlessly ourselves!
❤😘❤
I love this video!! Also, you remind me of Christina Ricci 🖤
I really enjoy your videos and respect your POV but found Apfel's style to be too heavy and over the top. I don't think I've seen an outfit of hers that I would duplicate but there are dozens you've put together that I would wear. Of course, to each her own.
I wore Twig, Mocha with Spice liner for decades and they were perfect. Now that the replacements are available I am over the moon! Mon Rouge by Paloma Picasso was the best red ever, nothing has replaced it, could Russian Red be it? I just discovered your site and it sure is nice to meet someone on the same wavelength. I always feel happier and inspired, never bored. Thanks! I like people who foster animals, fostered many kittens in the past.
Glad you're here Elizabeth! 😘
@@unblahyourself I have a huge scarf collection too. Whenever I flew to Europe I bought an Hermes Scarf duty free, some are worth over $1,000.
Needless to say I love some of them.
♥️👏
You're so right!
I'm so glad I found you. What a positive, pretty woman you are! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you're here!
I love this idea of being the fashion icon/Queen Baddie, and I am adopting that as my identity I didn’t know I was growing into! I’m 65, and have slightly eccentric/atypical tastes in clothing, for someone who lives in the Great Plains. I don’t care! Thanks you for introducing us to our Queen Baddie selves! 🥳😃 SO FUN!!! It’s really refreshing to not have to even think about dressing for the male gaze any more!
💯
You’re a good human 💜
☺
Love all your ideas !😊
Thanks so much 😊
It’s crocheting! ❤
That’s levitating…. 😂
These pants are actually OK in France. I am a French follower and I obviously care about style.
Lovevthe shoes
I have gotten stuck in a dress for a minute and it was terrifying !! lol love your work and look!
😘
I have a real red stone necklace that when I wear it something about the weight of it makes me feel so sexy. I loved that green large stone necklace. There’s a bead store down the street I’m going to have to check out. I think they’ll have something like that. Great tips as always!
I love your videos. Especially the style principle videos… keep them coming, please!!
I love this. As a 57 yr old aging punk, this really spoke to.me ❤ And yessss - Johnny Depp is absolutely a queen baddie!!!!! 🎯
Diane, This video "takes the cake". I moved a while back to the North. (I'm quite southern and over 55.) The ladies here are precious, good hearted and generous. They do believe I am alot...always wearing make-up and crazy dresses or skirts. I still like it. (BTW - I began using the Skin Food creme and it's amazing. May I ask where you get yours?)
That's awesome! I can pick up the skin food at Whole Foods. Or online. Thanks for sharing your story! ❤
Complimenting others is a great life exercise. It will make you feel better too and will brighten someone's day. Get into the habit of doing it regularly and see if you don't feel happier.
Your normal makeup suits you perfectly. I think there's no need for a change. The "opposite" eyes aren't my jam. My opinion isn't important here, and I do love the idea of a style challenge. Breathing fresh air into your closet and spending time playing with all the possibilities is a great exercise. You can do 100 different things with your beautiful scarves. The sky's the limit!
I enjoy so many of your videos, but I think this 3-part series is some of your best work to date. Heartfelt and really useful advice for anyone facing a big change in life. Brava!
Wow, thank you!
Love the last outfit with the barrel leg jeans! ❤ What brand are they?
I've started an insane shoe collection, comfortable but not stylish. I love fun colors and they always look good on feet where I can appreciate seeing them all day : ) I'm definitely building my baddie wardrobe.
