yep and that's the type of thing I wear... but you won't find those in the stores that sell clothing for the older lady. Instead it's floral midi dresses.. shapeless tops.... horrible dull colours like lilac.. and mauve, beige... or a wishy washy green..... *ugh*
Modern? What is this modern that you mention?to buy most modern looking clothes for an older person then the prices are significantly higher... which is ridiculous...
yep and they were super modern in the 1940's... and now in the 2020's beautifully made ... different entirely to the stuff that's in the affordable high street shops for older folks...
That sounds like a compliment, especially the "beautifully made." Well guessed, you are right, the lady made her entire outfit as well as my shirt and trousers. Thank you Holly.
Thank you Remy, kind of you to say so, much appreciated.
Both outfits are stunning as are all the outfits you've shown us .....I wish I had a just on little armful of Mrs HC's talent...
No standards John, once the waistcoat/vest was dispensed with, it was all downhill from then on.
I wouldn't wear the clothes in the top photo but, I think, both the ladies look very sweet and, perhaps that was the point back in the day, women were expected to become more homely as they got older.yes..there's that ...but like here.. those stores or department that sell clothes predominately aimed at older women... they're still stuck somewhere in the 70's. Floral tops.. polyester trousers ( pants)... polyester blouses .. horrible... it's like they've forgotten that there's people like us.. who are young in thought and deed despite being 60's and 70's and even 80's..they're produccing clothes for people..like this...
when so many of want clothes like this...
yes I'm not saying the older women don't look sweet, I'm saying their clothes are what are still being sold today for ladies who are over 60 as de rigueur and it's not what the majority of seniors want...I wouldn't wear the clothes in the top photo but, I think, both the ladies look very sweet and, perhaps that was the point back in the day, women were expected to become more homely as they got older.
The second lady is nowhere near the same age as the other two ladies though, but that aside, I like her style and I wear similar but, not the big jewellery or the scarf around the waist. I would buy those embroidered jeans if I saw them! Obviously I am just not done with buying clothes
The printed top on the younger woman is gorgeous. I tend to wear a lot of brightly colored, v-neck, short sleeve polos over summer.

Chicos and Coldwater Creek are two of my favorite stores. They are expensive but I wait for sales and their clothes last for a long time.
Those are my some of my favourites also. I’ve been lucky enough to find a few items in one thrift store. They don’t have a store or ship to Canada. These big stores sometime sell/donate to charities.
I find some good deals on Poshmark. Like the used clothing prices and the fact that buying second hand is environmentally friendly.

Outed at last.
Look at the size of the person in the trolley in the 2nd picture.What is it with some Walmart shoppers?! I don't see how the lady in the second pic was allowed to shop. I wonder if she got arrested for indecent exposure.
Shocking that people go out dressed that Way.
don't be sizest, we none of know what problems has been caused to make a person that size ....critiquing their clothing or they're dirty manners is one thing...sizest?..naaa....Look at the size of the person in the trolley in the 2nd picture.
I just meant the child was very big to be in a trolley, however you are right, I didn’t think she might not be able to walk, or could be otherwise handicapped
Store management is afraid of people like that, and store security is no security at all.
They just say it’s a Service Dog and the store backs down. I don’t appreciate having a dog sit in a grocery cart.
you will not find this in any other store in the world....
