On this channel I'd like to address the challenge of staying 'visible' in society as we age. How we look, what we wear and how we present ourselves seems to be more important than ever. So I'll be looking at how we can approach fashion in the over 60 age group. It's not how much you spend, it's how you put it together...
Overall I lean more towards a bo-ho chic style of dressing that I saw perfected so well when we lived in France. It’s timeless and looks great on all ages… I'll be sharing fashion tips and tricks and sharing my collection of luxury bags and jewellery with you.
Cosmetic surgery is a contentious topic I know, but I'd like to address the pros and cons. Non surgical cosmetic procedures are an option and I'd like to share my personal experiences of both with you...
I'll also be vlogging around Sydney and beyond...
Hope to see you here again 🤞

I'm a huge Alexander McQueen fan. After losing most of my belongings in a disaster, one of the first things I repurchased for my home was the Alexander McQueen Savage Beauty book. This wasn't just about filling a space on a shelf. McQueen's work is extraordinary, and this book captures that magic perfectly. The photography is breathtaking, showcasing his genius in a way that truly does his art justice. He didn't just design clothes; he created narratives that challenged conventions and evoked powerful emotions. Each piece was a masterpiece, blending darkness with beauty, and tradition with rebellion. His work was a revolution, and having that book back in my home feels like reclaiming a piece of that brilliance. I look forward to part 2 of this video, I really enjoyed listening to you talk about your collection. The pieces are wonderful. 🖤

Oh Steph that must have been devastating. You describe exactly how I feel about his work and if you aren't already a writer you should be. I love every piece of my collection from the stunning scarves to the V & A postcards. There are some more really beautiful pieces that I'm sure you'll love 😍

Oh! I remember that Alexander McQueen dress! I loved his shows & miss him. He had his own niche in fashion. I LOVE your scarves! I wanted a tee shirt too but I agree with you about the price. Thank you so much for sharing!

👋 Hi, new follower :) Alexander's mind was so theatrical & brilliant. His work kept him going, all while struggling so badly. His smiles after shows hid so much. .. beautiful art.

@5ftNothing Ай бұрын

It's good to have you here, thank you for joining us. You're absolutely right, a smile can hide so many things. It's the theatrical side of his designing that first drew me to him. I had a look at the Alexander McQueen website last night and it's a shadow of its former self 💔

The scarves are beautiful. I love the skull theme. Perfect to wear during Nov here in texas considering the ' day of the dead" a spanish/&Latin American celebration) ' but in West texas, the skull theme has become a daily fashion . Love it. Thanks for sharing it. I don't know much about AMcqueen. I saw the scarves are at a great price on the real real website. In excellent condition and even pristine condition. Thanks

@5ftNothing Ай бұрын

Hi Nora. I remember the 'Day of the Dead' celebration at the start of one of the Bond films, it was amazing. There are a lot of fake scarves around, so if you're thinking of buying one do please be careful 🥰
