I found something very interesting: the average age of the fashion bloggers who have been eyeing me recently is getting higher and higher. If the fashion circle used to be the world of young people, then the middle-aged and elderly bloggers who are emerging now may be able to reverse this trend and let "white-haired fashion" be recognized by more people.
Compared with the relatively young group, I think the fashion advantage of the middle-aged and elderly group is stronger, which may be contrary to the common sense in many people's minds. Why do you dare to say that? In fact, it is not difficult for everyone to understand when you think about it carefully. At the age of thirty or forty or before, to be beautiful, hardware and aesthetics can not be less.
But as we age, everyone inevitably ages, so everyone's hardware will gradually be pulled to an average, and at this time, to achieve a prominent image, it is largely dependent on fashion taste.
Back to the theme, this issue to introduce to you is an 85-year-old grandmother, she and the previous more professional fashion bloggers are different, there is no fashion knowledge base, can be used items also seem very messy, but after sharing their own outfits crazy powder. Seeing this 85-year-old grandmother found that it was really fashionable to wear "old clothes", let's take a look at it
The "transformation" from a laundromat clerk to a fashion blogger stems from the turnaround brought about by environmental changes.
At that time, Grandma Xiu'e and Grandpa Wan Ji were running a Wan Xiu laundry shop in Taichung, and after years of accumulation, the store had stored a lot of undpaid and unclaimed clothes.
Although Wanxiu Laundromat has been trying to find customers and donated some clothes, the number of clothes left is still very large.
Later, under the influence of the epidemic, the laundry business was deserted, and the two elderly people were listless when they guarded the store. In order to cheer up the grandparents, their grandson made a suggestion: by matching these "ownerless old clothes", to remind the owner to come and claim, but also to let the two elderly people have more fun when watching the store.
So these old clothes are revived under the combination of grandparents. Interestingly, every time an old outfit is released, the grandson will also attach the time when the dress will be stored in the store.
The Budapest T-shirt pictured below has been on hold for eight years, but it still looks very new, and Grandma used it to match the khaki skirt quite young.
At first, Grandma was a bit reserved. After all, carefully matching clothes and then posing for photos doesn't sound like what grandmas should do.
But women have always loved beauty, and soon she became familiar with this workflow. Now 85 years old, she is reunited with fashion with a white hair.
Although there are many items in the store, it is necessary to follow some aesthetic rules to match the eye-catching effect. In the styling shared by Grandma Xiu'e, the good-looking collocation uses some of the color matching techniques commonly used by fashionistas.
Close color combinations create a sense of harmony
Neighbor color refers to two sets of colors that are closely related in the color ring, and the common combinations are red + yellow, yellow + green, blue + green. The shape of the picture below is the use of a combination of ginger yellow + forest green, retro suits and berets, small pockets with the combination of directly make the aura full.
In addition, in the adjacent color, if the intensity of the two colors is similar, it will be more expressive in appearance.
Contrast color collocation, trendy and stylish
Compared with the casual combination of adjacent colors, the contrast will be more difficult to control, and the slightest carelessness will appear tacky. When encountering this situation, there are two ways to resolve it.
The first is to control the area of the two contrasting colors, determine the main color and the embellishment color. Like the shape of grandma in the picture below, the distinction between turquoise and reddish brown is obvious, if the area is equal at the same time, the eye-catching effect is too strong, so the reddish-brown of the skirt is the main color, and the turquoise of the beret is used as an auxiliary, bold and trendy.
The second option is to add white to transition. If the area between the two contrasting colors is similar, it is also an idea to introduce white to weaken the restlessness caused by the color.
The grandfather's top matching in the picture below is the use of this technique, the color area of the coat itself is not large, and the white shirt is also used as an inner layer, so although it is a strong contrast between red and blue, it will not look dazzling.
Morandi colors highlight the high-end
The most obvious effect of low-saturation colors, such as Morandi, is to create a sense of luxury, which is suitable for pairing with hard-lined items.
The example shown below, the soft texture of blue and beige dissolves the first impression of the suit board rules, and the two models also use printed T-shirts and canvas shoes to match, bringing out the spirit of mixing and matching to the fullest.
If it were not for the accident of the epidemic, Xiu'e and Wanji might never have set foot in the fashion field like now, and after really trying, they knew that life after the age of 80 could be so wonderful.
At first, Grandma Xiu'e was not very comfortable, slightly restrained in the face of the camera, but she was very satisfied after seeing the photo, which surprised her to realize that fashion did not leave her because of her age.
Later, their growth in fashion taste was a natural one. From the shallow taste of trying to wear the suit at the beginning, to the ease with which to mix and match now, the progress of the two elderly models in the aura is visible to the naked eye. Who says that middle-aged and elderly people can only show dignity in black and white?
Before sharing the fashion wear of middle-aged and elderly people, many people under the article were asking, is it really good to wear it this way? But I would say that we have different concerns at every age, but spending a lifetime pursuing fashion means being fashionable all your life.
When we are 20 years old, we all envy the stability and wealth of 40 years old, and at this time, 40 years old people are also looking forward to a comfortable life after 60 years old, 60 years old people, may expect to have 80 years old insight and open-mindedness...
Looking forward and looking backward, there is always a regret of dissatisfaction, only the present can be grasped by us, so the beauty of the moment is the beauty of a lifetime.
Well, this issue of the fashion grandma about wearing old clothes out of the circle is shared here, does her story bring you new inspiration? Feel free to share your fashion insights in the comments section, and we'll see you in the next issue
