    Last year I purchased a black, like new, trench coat by Calvin Klein that I found in a second hand store. It was only $30.00. One man at church said it looked so classy. I love wearing it and I am 75.

  • @sherrypettit5552
    @sherrypettit5552 Před 4 měsíci +106

    I don't like trends. I like to watch to see if I have these already. I am on a low/ no buy this year.

    • @amandajohnsrud6516
      @amandajohnsrud6516 Před 4 měsíci +13

      As am I. I’ve been trying hard to purchase sustainable brands, fibers and buying used where possible. The balance between wanting to be fashionable and responsible is thin. 😅

      I agree so much with this being the year for less purchasing!

    • @sherripettigrew
      @sherripettigrew Před 4 měsíci +4

      I have a simple recommendation for you that only requires a little bit of your time but no money. Go to a nice clothing store and see what they are offering for sale. Then go home and find those things in your closet! If you are like me, they are in there.

  • @dm-heart
    @dm-heart Před 9 dny +1

    12:51 thank you for speaking about ETHICS in fashion!❤As stewards of this beautiful earth🌎 it really MATTERS -we want to avoid fast fashion!

  • @sallyparsons6933
    @sallyparsons6933 Před 4 měsíci +55

    I’m not one who has to follow the latest trends, but I do get excited when a color, tone or shade that is flattering to me becomes a trend. As someone with soft summer coloring, it can be hard to find flattering colored clothes in a black, white, and vibrant colored world. So I’m thrilled when one of “my” colors becomes trending because I can find basics and accessories that flatter me. 🎉

    I like Classic Preppy style, so I enjoy Classic and Preppy Trends that are having a moment.

  • @debbiebixler7892

    Thank you for mentioning sustainability. Giving dignity to our designers and seamstresses as well as kindness to the earth is honoring and shows maturity in responsibility. ~

      This is so wrong. Obiden is finally going to E Palestine. Mr butplugg has never been in the shipping or trucking industry and is responsible for the good people of that area to get sick and hopefully not die

    Kay, I want to let you know that the lilac sweater and silver jewelry really look beautiful.

  • @kristywhited8857
    @kristywhited8857 Před 4 měsíci +25

    I do like to see the trends. I don't like them to influence my style, but I do like that trends indicate what we'll be seeing in the stores. If I like them, I can find them. If I don't, I can ignore them. Thank you for doing the work and bringing us the information!

  • @shellyhaynes5224
    @shellyhaynes5224 Před 4 měsíci +21

    I'm a big "no" on trends unless the trend is part of my personal style. I figured out my style and colors years ago (I'm 62) and if I stick to it I'm all good. I still watch your trend videos because you have great advice and ideas on how to wear colors and items together. Thanks for this !

    • @marylhere
      @marylhere Před 4 měsíci +1

      Got my first pair of skinny jeans last year….wore them once and got lots of complements on them. They fit me well but during the winter months I feel some wool leg warmers may come in handy. I wore them almost daily the 1977/78 tundra ice storm season. I am 65 and shop my closet mostly but have found some fantastic pieces thrifting.

  • @cocoatmidnight7611
    @cocoatmidnight7611 Před 4 měsíci +10

    Trench coat are classic & should be purchased in black navy khaki or brown. Will last for years.

  • @LindaFoyle
    @LindaFoyle Před 4 měsíci +6

    I’m 72year old woman and yes, white blouses, to me, never goes away, plus, a little denim, goes a long way, I’m not so much into jeans anymore, but do love lose fitting summer pants. Living by the beach in California, it’s hard to wear warmer clothes other then a sweatshirt. That’s all you see here, unless you go to a fancy restaurant $$$ and I don’t.

    • @LindaFoyle
      @LindaFoyle Před 4 měsíci +1

      I like polkadots and stripes together 😂

  • @TheShoneez
    @TheShoneez Před 4 měsíci +7

    ❤stripes polkadot and button up shirts will never go out of style😊

  • @NancyLauzon
    @NancyLauzon Před 4 měsíci +5

    Loved your comment about costume jewelry. I recently purged my closet of a ton of costume jewelry that I never wore. Now I concentrate on wearing the good pieces I have. I also try to buy at antique sales, you’d be amazed at the quality of gems available. I picked up a beautiful, unique amethyst and opal pendant that was a lot cheaper than in a retail store.

  • @colsen4616
    @colsen4616 Před 4 měsíci +4

    I was surprised how much my black trench elevated a casual jeans outfit! Icing on the cake, it was a like-new thrifted piece. That’s my go to method for trying out new wardrobe items I’m not sure I’ll actually wear a lot. Lol I’m still trying to wear my white button up more often. It was actually kind of hard finding one that was a bright white and affordable. With my cool complexion and gray hair, the least bit of softness in the white looks horrendous on me.

  • @dawnt5587
    @dawnt5587 Před 4 měsíci +11

    I like to look modern but I don’t really try many trends. I just don’t like most of them on me. I am also doing a no buy year. Also, I feel like no one wears anything trendy where I live.

  • @ggtwice
    @ggtwice Před 4 měsíci +14

    I love trends but I’m a huge budget trend follower. I shop sales and sometimes even thrift. Actually, I pull-it-off pretty well💃.

  • @wannabe41
    @wannabe41 Před 4 měsíci +5

    That’s the frustrating part about trends. So many retailers jump on board and the stores are full of items based on that trend, but if that trend doesn’t fit your coloring, your body type or your lifestyle, you’ll struggle finding anything else in the shops or online.

    • @kathygann7632
      @kathygann7632 Před 4 měsíci +2

      I just figure if the trending items aren’t for me, that just saves me money.

  • @tracyjones8396
    @tracyjones8396 Před 4 měsíci +29

    Since you're very conscious of sustainability, have you considered doing an episode centering on pre-owned, thrifted clothing? It is a great way to get name brand, high quality clothing while also being responsible in fashion and not contribute to the overflow of fast fashion. It's also so much more affordable.

    • @DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms
      @DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms  Před 4 měsíci +5

      I’m all for shopping second hand, but I don’t have much to contribute as far as advice. Thanks for the suggestion, but I just don’t have any expertise at all.

    • @k9rescuer934
      @k9rescuer934 Před 4 měsíci +4

      I’m a regular visitor to my local consignment store….I have found some great clothes, some new with tags! Love the thrill of the hunt AND the savings!

    I also never liked button ups, but since last fall I found/bought several that I like wearing. Never say never. Lol😂
    A lot of my clothes the last few months I have purchased from thrift shops, brand name clothes. I got a dress and a jacket just today.

  • @elizabethmeekshornback758

    I’m not a trend follower…I’m a trendsetter! 😂 But, I like hearing about them anyway 😮

  • @kathygann7632
    @kathygann7632 Před 4 měsíci +3

    Thank you. I love knowing the trends and appreciate all the work you do to research this. It tells me which items to move up in my closet. I really like silver jewelry, but now that I’m doing water aerobics, the pool chemicals make the silver turn black so I’m switching to white gold so it doesn’t turn black.

  • @barbararees3304
    @barbararees3304 Před 4 měsíci +6

    I, too, am tired of fashion regrets. It does not reflect good stewardship of my resources. I am really looking forward to defining and refining my style. Not easy when I like and can wear lots of trends. Your lavender sweater made your complexion glow

  • @junethiel632
    @junethiel632 Před 4 měsíci +8

    I am a pensioner living in South Africa. I simply do not follow trends. At nearly 74, I know what I like and feel my best in, and I ensure that classic clothes that I had bought years ago and had taken good care of, still make me feel good today. If I need a new item, I can sew it. The stores are just too expensive, and as for fine jewelery: no, we simply do not wear any, purely due to the fact of getting mugged in broad daylight when we do! Apart from my basics of black, a bit of white and navy, I also wear saturated colours in the bluish-red, purple/magenta and turquoise ranges. I am quite grey now, with a pale Irish skin, so pastels make me fade into the wallpaper, as does creams and greys. My style is classic with a tiny fresh twist, always pulled together, as I never know when I may be consulting with a new client (my studio is what provides my small income) or get called on to play the organ for a memorial service, or get asked to sing in a concert. Everything works, so I simply am not swayed by trends or the often ghastly colours designers try to force onto us....due to my age, I wear only low heeled, rubber soled shoes - it is safer when walking! And, I have never carried a large handbag - my bag holds a small compact, lipstick, wallet and phone. I need not carry anything else.......

    • @mariecurie7491
      @mariecurie7491 Před 4 měsíci +1

      You sound wonderful! I am a 70-year-old pensioner living in Italy. My hair is completely white. I get around on a pedal bike, so what I wear has to be suitable for that. Today I put on black leather shorts over opaque leggings and red ankle boots. Worn with a black polo neck and a.leopard print velvet biker. I got lots of compliments at the physio clinic! NB I do have one dress and one skirt... for the odd evening out

    • @junethiel632
      @junethiel632 Před 4 měsíci

      @mariecurie7491 thanks for your response! I believe our confidence to wear what WE feel comfy in comes from a healthy attitude - and we need not look like bag ladies because we are septegenarians! I am glad to make your acquaintance, signora!

    • @junethiel632
      @junethiel632 Před 4 měsíci +1

  • @margaretbrady5646

    I've always worn button up shirts, especially the no iron ones. You can have a classic cotton shirt that doesn't get wrinkly!

  • @smichel4529
    @smichel4529 Před 4 měsíci +21

    Thank you for this! I'm using this "stay-inside-cold-weather" day to clean out and dust my closet so this was so timely! I love yours terms - "quiet elegance", "modern", "understated beauty". I'm 74 and although I can't stop the aging process with wrinkles and gray hair, I don't want to dress "frumpy" so I love the idea of not necessarily "trendy" but rather "modern". You've given me lots of inspiration to pare down my clothes (and costume jewelry), find the holes I need to look for to update my wardrobe, and to keep it sustainable (I have never thought about using that term for buying and discarding clothing items I purchase on a whim.) You're doing a great job with your blog, love your new haircut and congrats on the new grandbaby!!

    • @paulamcleod1227
      @paulamcleod1227 Před 4 měsíci +3

      I'm planning on doing the same thing to my closet during the colder weather. I'm 65. I'm a retired teacher, and while I've donated dresses and work clothing, I'm still trying to find my retired lady clothing without looking too casual and looking elevated modern. Argh, the costume jewelry! Maybe I can donate that to my school for dress up for the kindergartners?

      I am cleaning out my closet as well. Late 60s and recently retired. Plenty of professional work attire in my closet but very little everyday wear! Also lost 70 pounds recently.. Yikes! Staring my new wardrobe and style - fun but so hard!!! Appreciate your tips much!

  • @kimberlyperrotis8962
    @kimberlyperrotis8962 Před 4 měsíci +7

    I love the classic patterns, dots, stripes, checks/plaids, because they don’t look dated. I also like some floral/foliage prints, but they can date quickly and frequently are too polychromatic. I prefer one soft tone like blue or green on a white background. What I would really love to see are Baroque patterns, which are classics based on vegetal motives. I recently bought the most beautiful silk scarf in one of those patterns from D&G, Italians still make and wear them beautifully. I like Paisleys, too, as well as some more modern prints. But those that have been around for hundreds of years have stood the test of time.

  • @dorcastroche7483
    @dorcastroche7483 Před 4 měsíci +2

    It's funny because I have 3 button down shirts in my closet and never wear them because I feel like I can't pull them off, whatever that means. I am so grateful and blessed by you.

  • @dianecyment1715
    @dianecyment1715 Před 4 měsíci +8

    Good morning, Kay. I still have a sleeveless polka dot silk blouse from J.Crew that I purchased about 12 years ago. Classics never go out of style. I believe sustainability also includes purchasing natural fabrics such as cotton, linen, wool and cashmere. I try to avoid the acrylic/polyester blends. These trends seem to be pretty subtle and not outrageous. I do have those "I regret purchases" that I am currently getting together to donate or bring to a consignment shop. I finally know my true style and that should help with random purchases. Thanks for sharing this with us.

  • @kimberlyperrotis8962
    @kimberlyperrotis8962 Před 4 měsíci +6

    There are usually a few trends I like most seasons, but they tend to be the more classic ones. A lot of trends are driven by brands to utilize cheap synthetic-fiber fabrics, those I avoid. Last year’s sheers, mesh and lace are good examples, all polyester, which brands love because they make astronomical profits on them.

  • @KathInNJ
    @KathInNJ Před 4 měsíci +1

    Sometimes I think the "I hear X is going to be trending" is more about fashion influencers putting it out into the universe than what is really going to happen. I agree that I see so many of those comments yet don't see it popular as the season goes on. Based on what I'm seeing online at the stores, I agree with you that it's more about the stripes than the polka dots.

    I have a hard time with the term “ on trend”. I’m almost 70 and I have learned what looks best on me without trying to be on trend. I looked at the Frank and Eileen clothing line which I love, however, the prices are out of reach. A button down shirt for $300.00. I look at the styles and I love them and find affordable clothing. For me, I finally learned how to wear what looks best on me. Thanks for the video.

      I agree. I'm going to be 69 in a few weeks; trendy often translates to faddy, which means that a look will be around for a few months or a year and then it looks ridiculous if it's worn after that. I don't have any desire to be a fashion victim.

    Thank goodness Hollywood is showing some class and less crass. Hope it continues. For Spring 2024 I'm focusing on quality not quantity. Just as I'm beginning this it seems that many brands are downgrading the fabric being used. So, this may prove to be a bit more challenging than I thought. For example, I've shopped Talbot for many years. Over the last 10+/- years the overall quality has decreased as the prices have increased. Surprisingly I'm finding that J. Crew Factory currently has better quality and better prices than Talbots for chic, classy basics and updated basics .

    I follow the Modern Gurlz channel, which is for the under 40 set. Their trends are so different from those here haha. Punk, grunge, pirate, goth... As a 68 year old, ive had my punk/grunge era. It no longer looks good on me, but i kinda miss it. I still wear my rock band t-shirts and flannels around the house! But I love the more minimalist style, trench coats, etc., when I go out. ❤

      😉Think stylistically there will always be a touch of rebellion or anti- establishment in my personal make-up👍. Besides, combat streetwear is quite 🆒️ & popular in 😎LA too.
      As someone who leans modern minimalist, I would just dial it down from the more kitschy youthful exuberance that strikes me as overblown & costumey. I would want it to fit my more polished casual classic feminine chic.
      🇬🇧 Saw a beautiful red haired 40-something woman wearing a funky lavender corduroy jumper style dress (not as in sweater but an overall or pinafore type dress that had a straight silhouette). She paired it w/a LS sheer lavender floral body-con crew neck top, lavender tights, & shiny lavender patent leather combat boots.
      Surprisingly, her ensemble was not precious or juvenile for either the silhouette or being pastel. Her look had a fun, funky, feminine flair that was perfectly ageless🎉.
      🤔Recently bought a pair of burgandy combat boots that have black laces & sole. Thought I could wear my 2pc burgandy suit w/the short pencil skirt, burgandy tights, & matching ankle boots. Also layer in a black turtleneck, tote, & knit beanie. That's something I could easily wear to the 📚library or 🌹Rose Bowl flea market for the day.
      Or, there's my black & white buffalo check button up shirt worn open as a shacket over a black base (mock neck body suit, slouchy tapered cuffed joggers, beanie, tote, & Converse high tops).
      🌞In Summer, I could wear a classic white tee & white linen bucket hat w/either: ¹linen white & pastel pink💗 buffalo check pencil skirt & slip-on pink leather Vans; or it's ²khaki🤎 beige & white "twin" skirt w/my white Converse high tops. Both combos have a playful grunge essence.
      ✂️Lastly, have a pair of khaki beige cargo pants & shorts that I'd like to change into a maxi skirt & matching bucket hat respectively. The lightweight military/utility fabric is truly comfortable in our 🥵Mediterranean-Desert climate.

    These “trends” are not super trendy. Many of them are classics. For example, I was wearing a trench coat in some of my engagement photos over 40 years ago. Matching suits were also popular in the 1980s. Fit and flair dresses have been around forever. I have been wearing button down shirts since I was a kid (I love wearing these under a sweater or vest). I’m super happy with these “trends” since I have most of them in my closet right now. Thanks for sharing.

    Lots of good ideas here! Navy is fabulous for spring and a white button down shirt in every closet! As well as a denim shirt. I think careful with lavender for older ladies. I think a pink that works with your coloring is better. Straight jeans are so great! They flatter almost everyone. And my classic self has done really well with less is more when it comes to jewelry. I wear my classic pieces with everything!

    I do classics in tawny neutrals and make sure I get my money's worth out of them. Now, to be specific, a trenchcoat is a long, beige, military coat meant to protect from the weather over a suit. If you simply want something to throw on over a t-shirt and jeans, get a wool hacking jacket instead. But if you are seriously out in the snow and wind, wear an insulated heavy duty hunting coat in Blaze Orange. Bought once and lasts a lifetime.

      You are so right. Except for a few heirloom, delicate pieces which are truly for special occasions, I have been wearing my “good” jewellery everyday. I’ve sent the inexpensive costume pieces to the charity shop; they’re still fashionable but of lesser quality. (I did keep a few pieces in the dress-up box for my grandkids to play with!) I can’t enjoy the jewellery that’s sitting in a box. By wearing it, in a way it honours those who gave me these lovely pieces as gifts, and those from whom I inherited them.

    I have struggled for years (and still don't have a final solution) on the navy vs. black debate. I have always had black in my wardrobe, but I wear a lot of blue jeans so I feel I can't really escape having both black and navy. I could wear all black and purchase only black jeans, but they fade and I'm not a fan. But black is the easiest. I can buy black pants at one store and black print shirt at another and they will "match." Navy isn't that easy. So many different shades that each retailer calls navy, but all don't work together. I have cats and cat hair is an issue, but I find that battle is best addressed through fabric content, and not which color I choose. I have been labeled "true winter" in my color analysis sessions (I've done 3 in my life with consistent results). So both black and navy are choices that will work for me. I want to downsize and have a smaller wardrobe, so I REALLY need to make a choice.
