I laughed when I saw the first frumpy outfit as it's so common amongst middle aged and elderly women. Marie-Anne Lecoeur shows women how a few simple changes can make you look chic using clothes you already have. You can still be comfortable in hot weather, too!

Cute video. I expected her to modify the outfit, not just show a new one, lol.

A lot of women do wear those square boxy outfits because they hide tummies and are comfortable. And they look like everyone else their age.

I'm just too short to look good in any kind of boxy baggy pants of any length.

You must have posted the wrong video.

The purpose of the video is to teach how and why certain pieces work together or not so you can play with your own clothes. Marie-Anne isn't telling anyone only to wear these pieces. Experiment and have fun!

I'm with you sister! I am 74 and I wear fitted clothes. I have a decent shape and keep my weight appropriate for my height. I wear a lot of leggings in cool weather and sun dresses in warm. I own many pairs of cute Clarks sandals. The clothes in the video before AND after are just....yuk lol!

And in the meantime, BE INSULTED by these idiotic bastions of "good taste" in clothes!

OP, do you seriously not see how freakin' INSULTING you are being to women who, you know, just want to wear clean, well-fitting clothes that are actually comfortable too? What an idea!

(And no, I don't wear the "before-when-you-looked-hideous" clothes, but if I DID, I certainly would not want to be judged as being some sort of feminine or SOCIETAL misfit for that. Holy crap, how shallow can you get?! )
