#40overfashion - Jak na to + styl
As I have matured , I’m 63 now, have lost a lot of weight, 100 lbs, and have found that I really like dressing up a bit, i have always been a bit of a slob, I now get excited about sport coats and vests and try to incorporate them even in casual situations, because of the bug money is rite and find myself frequenting thrift shops, have found many awesome buys there, thanks for great content! I listen to them over and over
Thank you very much!
You are a life changer, John.
Gentlemen, John is the most valuable asset to our wardrobe. I’ve always said that I would hire him without hesitation to go shopping with me as my consultant. But since that is not the case, the next best thing would be that color wheel and Pinterest.
John, while the color wheel is no substitute for your expertise, "at least in my opinion," it can be a fashion lifesaver for those who question what colors to combine.
Thanks as always! This video was a great overview on how to be a wiser, more logical shopper.
Thank you very much Roberto!
That jacket fits you perfectly
Thank you Bob!
My go to channel these days. Simplicity is the key.
Carole Jackson......Color For Men......a book long out of print(late 1980's)but the best book for using body types hair,skin and eye color to dress well. Also explains personality types(Classical,Gamin,etc.)
3:24-3:32 - - John, you should consider taking a Master Class in Photoshop ... +3:32 your right eye and ear are dead give-a-ways!!! 😜😊
I just found your channel today. I’ve learned a lot in just a few of your videos. I’m 65 & have been dressing like I’m 25...so sad. Thanks for getting me on the right track✊🏻
Good content as always John, happy new year and all the best for 2021!
I can vouch for the quality and versatility of Anson Belts. I have 4 belts and buckles of various shades and metals, and since the buckles are interchangeable, they cover every occation and every outfit I choose to wear. Been using them for a couple of years now, and they seem to hold up really well. Also, the easily adjustable length comes in real handy after a large dinner... ;)
Great videos as always John! Thank you 🙏
Happy New Year John. I like the High-Low idea and think it can work well if you want to become more minimalist and purposeful in your life. Looking forward to a new year enjoying 40 over fashion.
Thank you Andrew!
I remember when that style of clicking belt buckle was sold in LA back in the 90s. Nothing like a regular thick high quality leather belt with the holes in them that the belt fits well.
Hello John. Love this session and I hung off every word you uttered. I love that you are moderated and even keeled in not only what you say but but how you deliver it too.Nice that you are making suggestions and not pushing your ideas but getting us boys to “think’ about how we plan our wardrobes and combinations. As usual….loved your work. You are my absolute mentor John and just a heartfelt thanks for being here for us. When I was a teen I thought the 50s were where it all ended, and now that I am here, I see that the opposite presides. Life is good. BB
Thank you!
The Temecula Goodwill on Temecula Parkway is closing down and everything is 50% off. I found some amazing deals at the Goodwill. There are also discounts for veterans and seniors.
Oh no! I didn’t know they were closing. That’s where I donate all of my stuff.
@@40OverFashion I don't think they're taking donations anymore. By the way you can donate to H&M and they'll give you a 15% discount
I like the combination of your sports jacket, and shirt. The fit is right on the money John.
Great job, great video as always. Thank you very much for all your advice. Stay safe
Thank you Felix!
This video is a wealth of information for us gents. Thanks again John for another homerun!
Glad you enjoyed it!
John ... Black Anson strap with Black Anson buckle !!! You're welcome!
Thanks for the American Eagle jeans tip. Jeans are the hardest thing to find that fit properly AND are the proper length. I just gave away all my “old” jeans, in super shape, because I realized that they were all saggy and ill fitting, even though they were the “right” size. I finally found out that I need jeans that “sit below the waist” and are slim, to fit my body type. And I’m not fit either. Big fashion news for me that made a huge improvement in my “look”. That one change made me look and feel so much more put together.
Thanks as always for the great video, John. I have never thought of going into American Eagle for jeans, but will have to take a look. I have been an H&M jeans kind of guy. Best to you!
Yeah Mark, you should totally give them a try. I like them a lot.
Great and USEFUL info as always my man...
Anson belts, a good tailor, some quality shoes and John on your CZcams and instagram - you can’t go wrong!!! Have a great week and stay safe and healthy John.
Thanks Bob! Glad you're here!
Thanks for the advice! I used to go to a tailor years ago for my suits and sports coats, but never thought about using a tailor for everyday clothes and jeans. Now, I just need to find a tailor in my area (Cleveland, Ohio).
Thanks for watching!
Luv that fit your wearing!!
Great Tips. Thanks John.👍
Thank you!
Do it guys. Anson Belts changed my life!
Thanks Charles!
Good ideas. My style tends to lean more casual as well. I just love jeans. I also love my anson belts. Happy New Year.
Thank you Keith!
Good stuff John!
I have stopped doing dapper and have gone back to being me there was nothing wrong being me all along. I just do fits and color pallets that are best for me . Btw a tailor can only do so much and you have to as you said live in your own body . Have a great day.
Great video as always. You're right about stores like American Eagle, a place in which I would normally never shop. I went in about a year ago during a Black Friday sale and found the best fitting jeans I've ever owned, I now have six pair, all age appropriate of course. So, don't be afraid to venture into stores filled with
twenty year olds, you never know what you'll find.
Exactly!
Agree I love my anson belts
Great advice. Thanks.
Thank you for watching!
Great content and tips, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Happy 2021...great video
Thank you!
Great belt info
Thanks 👊🏽
I wear my Thursday boot with honestly 25$ khaki and I feel good cause the boots pulls everything.
Happy New Year 2021 John, love what you paired to wear in this video! Funny I knew someone that worked in advertising and they shared with me that many times there were seamstresses on location that will add on darts all over a man's trouser so when they move around the fit on the pants were like a second skin, sure it looked great on camera for a commercial but maybe in real life it will look odd. But to your point, tailoring is crucial for fit. Thanks for making great content on your channel for us men over 40!
Thank you Al!
Great video! I have learned not to buy clothes just because it is on sale.
If there were only 1 video of yours to watch, this one would be it.
Great job of filling in all the missing pieces here: 1. Demystifying Instagram, 2. Advice on curating your wardrobe to elevate your style instead of ‘purchasing’ your way into it, and finally 3. TAILORING & FIT
Well done sir! Cheers.
Thank you very much Andy!
Hello John!! Another great video.
Keep the info coming my friend 👍
Thanks, will do Alex!
You're still alive John. 😊 Thanks for sharing. 👍
Yes I am! Thanks Ron!
Good afternoon John.
I am 64 year old men who has really appreciate and learned from all the advice you’ve given us how to dress up well. What statement I want to make is that I have learn how to tailor a lot of my long sleeve dress shirts however, because my body structure is rectangular. I have to be very careful not to take him too much on the sides. I have to make sure that the idea, is that the top part of my body meaning my shirts should chill wider than of course, my lower part because of my body shape.
Do recommend the belts too
I personally shop at TK Maxx in the UK, branded as TJ Maxx in USA. Designer brands at affordable prices. I've saved hundreds on top of the range designers. I'm 63, 165 lbs, 5'10" and I love to dress smart casual, but also like to look different from everyone else. Hopefully, if John has another subscribers fashion show, I'll mail some pics in.
color...redhead here so color choice is super important...most things in the closet match up ok...real important - so as not to look washed out. hi/low...western casual style for me, but read once where you can wear anything as long as you have decent shoes, belt, watch, and for me, sunglasses and maybe a nice ring...but prob most guys would like more expensive clothes
Great video. Got to try Anson belts. The jacket that you are wearing looks nifty.
Could you let me know where you bought it And the price.
Thank you
Spend money on outerwear and shoes.
The rest can be bought on the cheap, so long as it fits.
Thanks Mike!
I'd love to try Anson belts, but getting them shipped to Ireland is v expensive. Any other suggestions? Thanks
Here in the UK,Rhys Jones&co ,is a genius for men who have physical jobs and are not the usual high street model.Big men dressed well at Rhys Jones&Co Liverpool UK.
Great advice here! Unrelated question though - do you store your John Henric knit blazer folded or hanging?
I keep them on hangers.
Thank you for the video; tons of great advice. I do love those belts with the micro adjustments.
Thank you!
Fit is King Always
Happy New Year John. I know you always tell us fit is key but I've been hearing that baggier clothes for 2021are trending . I am hoping that slim fit items will still be available as I was not a fan of baggier clothes the first time around and won't be this time either. BTW I have all three of the Anson belts you showed. Peace. : )
I would stay with the status quo until that style becomes more main stream. Right now it’s very early. Happy New Year!
I agree, I’ve seen baggier clothes still tending this yr, but I did that to death in high school in the 90s. I feel the slim fit, not skinny, suits most people the best and hope designers continue to make those offerings
Good video, save for the belt pitch. IMHO, only black is needed. Belts: buy dress/casual in both +2 and +4 one's waist size. This formula covers all pant belt loop placement. Universal belts/gizmos etc. look cheap and foolish. It's cool that the Dave guy is making $ (Antonio pitches his stuff, too), but look in the mirror, TWICE - nuff said.....
Good morning
👋 happy new year John. Bought new jeans leg length too long, should I turn the bottoms up or get them cut and sown ? Cheers handsome 👍🏻
I get my jeans tailored...it looks so good to have the length and leg opening perfect! That’s what I recommend!
Honestly John, I prefer tailoring.
Good content
Thank you very much!
John, I don't know the retail market in the U S, but in Australia a national chain who sell materials and equipment for making curtains and clothes, along with a massive range of the related odds and sods, that you can no longer find in department stores introduced a line of correctly formed hangers for men suits
They were often out of stock which is unusual for the store, which indicates that the manufacturer is a small company. But as they are very well made and I have now bought 10 of them, because they help retain the shape of a canvas lined suit coat that has taken a few wearings to mold to the shape of your chest, I thought that there must be a number of your viewers who restrict the wearing of casual dress to the weekend, who would appreciate a review of the accessories that can be used to help retain the appearance of their Business clothing. For me that includes shoe trees and an electric, free standing, trouser press. Phil. P.S. And a Happy New Year.
Thanks Phillip! Appreciate the suggestion!
Hello John,
What size thickness are the belts you have?
I have some in both sizes. The 1.5" is more casual.
What is the right length for wearing a shirt untucked ?
Mid-crotch.
Great video John! I like the high/low concept!
Thank you!
Hi John, I like you polka dot shirt.. can you advise where to buy please... thanks
Thanks! Nordstrom Rack. Penguin brand.
@@40OverFashion Thanks John.. Just on a side note, it’s winter here in the UK 🇬🇧 do you have any advise on hats? I want to start wearing them but just not sure of where to start.. thanks for any advise.. keep doing what your doing.
#legend
Hey John. Do you have the Million Dollar Collar installed on the shirt you're wearing in this video?
Nope, not today.
@@40OverFashion Wow! How is that placket standing up so perfectly?
You Make so good to eyes.
Mister and Genttleman.
Is something different about your voice/ Tone or Cadence?
Thanks Timothy, I think I rushed on this one.
This guy knows his stuff, I’ve taken a from him. Thanks
An island of calm and civility in an ocean of turmoil and angst.
I went to Anson belts, and I was ready to buy. Their website is not user friendly. I was ready to buy but didn't because frankly, the site was overwhelming with combinations.
I thought having a lot of combinations was a good thing.
@@40OverFashion I thought so too, and I love your site and try to support you because I want the site to prosper, and stick around, but that website is just insane. Do they actually shop it themselves and see how cumbersome it is? Please, if you have any influence with them, get them to humanize it and I am a buyer if they do. Thanks
Here’s something nobody told me but I figured out-cheap shoes are never a bargain-they look cheap and hurt your feet. Better to spend more on high quality shoes and save somewhere else.
It’s too bad we have to find these things out the hard way.
There is an old saying I live by. “Poor people can’t afford to buy cheap clothes” I’ll add. If you aren’t poor you have no excuse.
I always bought used higher end before ever buying new. Looked better, felt better, lasted far longer and we’re much less expensive.
I have a pair of shell cordovan shoes I bought used in 1996. They look and feel better than 99% new shoes out there and new replacements are over $700. Now. Even if I paid that price back then that’s only about 25-30 a year and I wear them quite often.
New videos
I think you mean a "Simple" wardrobe. "Simplistic" is a pejorative term, meaning simple-minded or rather feeble-minded.
Online only for the most part. Can't stand shopping for clothes and the department store
What if you look to good in clothes and the attention makes you feel uncomfortable. What if. I know I have a better body and face than most twenty year olds but my energy levels are dropping but the top level of young is better. See I'm going to be 63 this year and this channel might skew to older younger than to me. John I know you grew up with the baggy fit and I'm more of a shrink to fit 501guy 10 mile from the beach dude in California. Whole different vibe. I'm trying to learn the new ways but I like my style better and so do many young girls. I do want to get a burgundy blazer this year and wear them with torn and washed blue jeans and Walmart $1 flip flops. I color my hair not cause I'm going fray but because it needs more dimension. I bleached my hair platinum blonde last spring and the girls were buzzing my house in a gated family community constantly to just say "hello" so I know my style works for me. Anson seems kool but do yourself a favor and try some suspenders with that. Your pants will look really tailored. That's my advice for 2021 and get that face as clean as you can with acid and keep those freckles and age spots and wrinkles at bay. You know you can hide suspenders under clothing especially in the winter and having chicks check out your butt makes the hassle worth it. Winter time is black and blue time for me. Happy 2021and guys lets slay life like back in the day fashion wise, before baggy jeans.
@ferko. Perhaps you could give your Libido and Energy levels a lift by watching a few videos to see how people in your age really enjoy dressing for a surfside lifestyle in Australia, where the Covid bans are effectively lifted. There should be numerous videos on Bondi Beach, because Channel 10 runs Bondi Rescue several hours a day for the benifit of Tourists, and its within "Spitting Distance" of the CBD. If you are up to it some of the World's best Surf Beaches are either side of the entrance of Port Phillip Bay where Melbourne sits at the northern end, about an hours drive from either the nearby ski fields or the great wine districts. And your dress style would be right at home on the East Coast beaches of Byron Bay and Surfers Paradise. That's what I do in my spare time, because I am only 83 and I am too busy living to bother about thinking about retiring. But when I am out of a Business Suit, I follow John's guidelines, because my Peer Group, at the top end of the "Silicon Valley" high tech set, are all 40 years younger than me, but I am accepted for my ability and attitude, not out of false respect for my age. Phil.
Not to critique your outfit but that polkadot shirt with the jacket does not work that Jacket washes you out and all I see is polkadots,
much love
those anson belts are ugly. It's ridiculous to suggest that a belt that has holes every inch or so can't fit.
What does being nice have anything to do with legitimacy????? Those belts are an eye sore and are incredibly tacky looking. Gentlemen, you need TWO belts - brown leather and black of GOOD quality. Every fashion channel recommends the quality of items as an investment and then shamelessly promotes an awful product for an extra pay check. It's disgusting and real low.
This was a shameless belt commercial that delegitimizes all objectivity. Cannot trust your advice now that their infomercials and will be unsubscribing to your channel.
Thank you for your feedback.
