How beautiful to obtain some media protection within the Wall Avenue Journal‘s Off Obligation part on the weekend. Interviewed by the journalist Esther Achara on staying trendy over-60, six ladies share their recommendation on dressing nicely, along with some magnificence ideas, collected through the years. (I’m linking to the web function however it’s a must to be a WSJ subscriber to entry it).
Briefly, the article covers recommendation on what to put on, type pointers, key equipment and footwear. I approve of the ‘sufficiently old to know finest’ sub-head and the truth that certainly one of my quotes seems within the introduction. Whoop! Achara requested me concerning the relevance of tendencies, particularly the ‘Coastal Grandmother aesthetic’ which blew up on TikTok a few years in the past and nonetheless appears to be a factor (your guess is nearly as good as mine). My full response talked about how these phrases would possibly appear to be innocent enjoyable however are problematic as a result of they encourage stereotyping – one thing the panel mentioned at TNMA:LIVE! – however the publication ran with, ‘ Ignore the coastal grandma shizzle. If it suits together with your private type, put on the sweater vest!’
