Today, we are diving into Part 2 of “Menopause & Style…Is This a Thing?”   We got such incredible feedback from last time that I just had to bring you more juicy tips and tricks because, let’s be real, we’re just scratching the surface here!   If you haven’t caught up on our previous episodes, especially our Kaftan and Kimono extravaganza from last week, go back and listen to 1episode 191, don't missing out on some major style inspo from the "Mrs. Roper" night   But enough about the past, let's get to the good stuff!   Today’s show is all about embracing the changes that come with menopause and how to stay stylish through it all. Trust me, ladies, it’s not just about skincare and avoiding that turkey neck – it's about self-care for your changing body, mind AND your style.   Key Elements of Menopause and Style   1. Understanding Your Changing Body:   As your body changes, it's crucial to adapt your fashion to feel comfortable and confident. Explore fabrics that breathe well and silhouettes that flatter your specific body type. It's all about EVOLVING your style as you age. Otherwise, you run the risk of getting stuck in a style rut.    2. Invest in Quality Elevated Basics:    Good foundational pieces like properly fitting bras and versatile tops can transform your look. Remember, comfort doesn’t mean sacrificing style!   3. Accessorize Wisely:   Accessories can and will be your best friend! They can update any look and help you feel current without overhauling your entire wardrobe. Think bold necklaces, stylish scarves, and eye-catching earrings.   4. Stay Active:   Incorporating regular weight bearing exercise into your routine not only boosts your health but also your confidence. If you don't build your muscle mass, you can lose it fast.    5. Mental Health Matters:   Menopause can be a rollercoaster, but maintaining a positive body image and mental health will reflect outwardly in your style. Dress in ways that make you feel happy and vibrant. Remember, shopping for fit first will never steer you wrong.   6. Try Something New   Fashion should be fun!

In this over-eager installment of the Fashion Crimes Podcast, Episode 191: "Top Kaftans and Kimono Picks," Holly Katz, our cherished personal stylist and beacon for fashion-forward women over 40, invites us on a vibrant journey through the world of kaftans and kimonos. #amazeballs   Holly's adventure begins with a hilariously mandated kaftan outfit at a summer camp reunion with her girlfriends, sparking a refreshed admiration for these versatile garments. Inspired, she embarks on a mission to share her newfound favorites and styling tips, transforming our wardrobes with an infusion of fun and flair.   LISTEN NOW: https://apple.co/2XXKHfC   Follow on Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/hollykatzstyling/   Key Elements of This Episode:   1. Kaftan Inspiration:   Holly's initial spark of inspiration came from a unique requirement at a summer camp reunion: every attendee was to wear a kaftan for a themed "Mrs. Roper Night." This not only served as a nostalgic callback to Mrs. Roper’s iconic outfits from the sitcom "Three's Company" but also highlighted the timeless appeal and comfort of kaftans.   Holly shared her newfound appreciation for kaftans, which led her to seek out various styles and brands, emphasizing their suitability for women of any age, seeking to add a fun, stylish, and comfortable piece to their wardrobe.   For example, Holly was particularly taken by Isabella Rossellini’s Instagram post featuring a stunning Emilio Pucci kaftan, which represented the high-fashion potential of this garment.   Additionally, Holly interviewed a Fashion Bestie, Jennifer, a self-proclaimed kaftan and anti-pants enthusiast, to share professional insights with her listeners. Jennifer reminisced about her style influences from sitcoms of the '70s and '80s and expressed a deep connection to kaftans for their comfort and the statement-making prints reminiscent of those decades. Also, why wear pants?   This segment underlined kaftans' versatility, from loungewear to high-fashion statements, demonstrating their enduring appeal across generations.   2. Kimono Styling:   While kaftans took center stage, Holly also shared her personal venture into the world of kimonos, considering them "kaftan-adjacent." She showcased the adaptability of kimonos, which can be styled over shorts, jeans, or even as a sophisticated overlay to swimsuits.   For example, Holly mentioned her own BA&SH kimono, which she's treasured for years, illustrating how a well-chosen kimono can become a timeless piece in one's wardrobe.   She encouraged her listeners to experiment with kimonos, citing their ability to elevate any outfit with an air of sophistication and chicness. Holly’s styling tips included pairing longer kimonos with a simple tank top and jeans for a casual yet polished look or draping them over swimwear for an effortlessly elegant beachside ensemble.   3. Wardrobe Maintenance:   Holly’s lively discussion extended beyond kaftans and kimonos to address common "fashion crimes" related to wardrobe maintenance and closet organization. She shared anecdotes from her reunion weekend, where a peek into a friend’s closet revealed typical organizational mishaps, such as shoes scattered on the floor or clothes hanging inside out.   Holly offered simple yet effective solutions like investing in a shoe rack to avoid clutter and rolling jeans instead of folding them to save space and make selection easier.   She emphasized the psychological and practical benefits of an organized closet, where every piece is visible and accessible, thereby encouraging a more mindful and enjoyable dressing experience.   Wrap-Up:   Kaftans and kimonos are more than just fashion statements; they are embodiments of comfort, style, and individual expression. Episode 191 not only guides us through the enchanting world of these garments but also encourages us to embrace our unique styles and make every day a fashion opportunity.   By listening and engaging with us on our podcast, you join a community where fashion is celebrated, and style education is shared freely. Let Holly's enthusiasm for kaftans and kimonos inspire you to explore these versatile pieces, making your wardrobe a testament to your personal style journey!   - Holly Katz Personal Stylist, Podcast Host and Best-Selling Author   Get in Touch:   Have a fashion query or want to suggest a topic?

It's fabulous for accessories and statement pieces, adding a subtle pop of color that's both unique and eye-catching.    Western Vibes: Thanks to a certain Queen B and the timeless appeal of Western fashion, cowboy boots, bolo ties, and denim are all the rage. Embrace the trend with a statement boot or a denim piece for that perfect blend of rugged and chic.   Ballet Flats' Comeback: Yes, ballet flats are back and more stylish than ever. From mesh designs to patent Mary Janes, there's a flat for every fashionista looking to combine comfort with style this spring.   Interesting Trench Coats: The trench coat, a timeless staple, is getting a makeover.

Fashion Besties!!  As your favorite personal stylist and the best fashion friend you never knew you needed, I'm about to dish out some tough love on the fashion crimes lurking in your closet. P.S.: Don't forget to download, subscribe, and leave a review for the Fashion Crimes Podcast. As always, send to someone you know who needs some fashion help! Key Fashion Crimes in Your Closet That Can Hold You Back   1. Cheap Clothing: Clothes that are see-through, clingy, and look worse for wear after one wash aren’t doing you any favors. That bargain bin find might seem like a steal, but if it's showing every bump and lump, it's stealing your style instead. Opt for well-made pieces that flatter and last.   2. Shopping Backwards: When your shopping mantra is 'low price above all', you end up with a closet full of compromises, not clothes you love. Instead, focus on the perfect fit and quality that elevates your look. Sometimes, spending a bit more upfront saves you from a closet full of 'nothing to wear'. #TRUTH   3. Sale Rack Frenzy: We've all felt the thrill of the deal, but panic shopping in the sales section often leads to fashion missteps. Those items often end up unworn, with tags intact, living in the closet's shadowy corners. Break the cycle by shopping for what you need and love, not just because it's on sale.    4. Gift Clothing Guilt: From the ill-fitting sweater from your mother-in-law to the off-trend handbag gifted by a well-meaning friend, it's time to let it go. Direct your dear ones towards what you'd truly cherish which is suggestions of things that you actually want.   Your wardrobe should be a reflection of you, not a collection of others' tastes. #YYYAAASSS   5. Wrong-Size Wardrobe: Clothes that don’t fit, be they too loose or snug, are relics of the past or wishes for the future. They can be psychologically cumbersome, implying you might revert to a former size. Celebrate your current shape by curating a wardrobe that fits and flatters you right now. Dress for the body you have today.    6. Ancient Attire: Even if it still fits, that decade-old dress likely doesn't reflect your current style or life. Our clothes should evolve with us, ensuring our wardrobe isn't stuck in a time warp. Regularly refresh your style to keep your look current and confident. Don't wait 10 or 15 years to shop. Then you're stuck in a style rut.    7. Sentimental Stockpile: Letting go of past purchases can be tough, especially when they're tied to memories or a significant cost. Use the backward hanger method to see what you're actually wearing. If it hasn't seen daylight in a year, it's time for it to serve someone else's story. #DONATE   Join me next week for more style wisdom and wardrobe rehab. Until then, stay fabulous, stay stylish, and tackle that closet with confidence. Remember, you deserve the best wardrobe the universe has to offer... DON'T SETTLE and make sure your clothes bring you up, not down.    - Holly Katz Personal Stylist, Podcast Host and Best-Selling Author   Get in Touch:   Have a fashion query or want to suggest a topic?

Welcome to this week’s vivacious episode of the Fashion Crimes Podcast, your go-to hub for all things fashion, style, and shopping, brought to you by Holly Katz, your favorite personal stylist and the ultimate fashionista over 40 (way over, but who’s counting?).   In this episode, Holly takes the leap into a topic that’s buzzing in the fashion world and on everyone's lips - Menopause and Style. Yes, you heard that right.   This week, we’re talking about navigating the changes our bodies go through before, during and post-menopause and how to keep slaying in the style department.   Introduction to Menopause and Style:   Holly bravely crashes into the realness of styling through menopause, a phase that might not be glamorous but is definitely significant.   She explores how to prepare and adapt to our changing bodies without sacrificing style. Need some inspo? Try out our weekly pinterest board for a spin...you might be surprised. Menopause does NOT mean dressing too old. It does not.  Common Fashion Mistakes to Avoid:   1. Undergarments are the Foundation: • Holly stresses the paramount importance of wearing the correct fitting undergarments during menopause. • An ill-fitting bra can not only ruin the look of a fabulous outfit but also cause discomfort. • She discusses how to find the perfect bra that offers support, including tips for getting professionally fitted.   2. Function over Fashion, or Both?:   • Learn about the technology behind modern bras that ensure you don't have to choose between looking good and feeling good.   3. The Fashion Crime of Ignoring Fit: • We address the common oversight of clinging to past sizes and styles that no longer serve the evolving menopausal body. • Holly highlight the importance of embracing current body changes and choosing clothes that fit well now, rather than holding onto an outdated self-image.   Dressing According to Your Body Type:   1. Top-Heavy Tips: For those who carry their weight in their chest, we cover how to select tops and dresses that bring balance and elegance to your silhouette.   Emphasize the necessity of a well-fitted bra to uplift and support, creating a more defined waistline.   2. Midsection Mindfulness: For women experiencing weight gain around the middle during menopause, discover styling tricks to camouflage and flatter.   Learn about the magic of high-waisted jeans, the art of tucking in tops to create an illusion of a waist, and why monochromatic dressing can be your best friend.   3. Accentuating the Lower Body: For those with fuller hips and thighs, we dive into the benefits of structured clothing and how certain cuts can create a harmonious balance.   Unpack the power of A-line skirts, flare jeans, and the strategic use of patterns and colors to draw the eye and enhance your natural beauty.   Expert Advice and Style Evolution:   1. Skin Deep with Monina Wright: • A reminder that in Episode 186, we took a deep look into skincare and makeup adjustments that cater to the menopausal skin's needs with Monina Wright, a seasoned esthetician and makeup artist, where she shares her top tips for keeping your skin glowing and youthful, addressing common concerns like dryness and sensitivity.   2. Hair Today, Gorgeous Tomorrow with Valea Ramson: • Hair texture and volume can change during menopause. In Episode 174,  Velia Ramson shared her expert advice on managing these changes. • Discover haircare routines that nourish and styles that adapt to your hair’s new characteristics.   3. Embracing Your Style Evolution: • Menopause is not just a physical transition but also an opportunity for style reinvention! • Holly encourages you to experiment with new trends, rediscover your personal style, and learn to dress the body you have today.   Closing Thoughts:   We hope you found this week's episode to be candid, empowering discussion on embracing menopause with style and confidence.   Remember, fashion and style are your friends - not your enemies - during every stage of life.   Whether you're entering menopause, in the thick of it, or beyond, it's all about making your outside match your vibrant inside.   If you’ve ever felt lost in the style department during these changing times, consider this your roadmap back to fashion-forward living.   Stay stylish, stay empowered, and remember, you’ve got this!   Thank you for tuning in to the Fashion Crimes Podcast. Share this episode with someone who might need that extra nudge or a friendly reminder that menopause and style can indeed go hand in hand.   Here’s to looking fabulous at every age!

Whether it's ditching the traditional dress or going big on a second dress, it's all about what makes you feel fabulous.   Trend Talk: Non-traditional wedding dresses are all the rage, with the hashtag #nontraditionalweddingdress blowing UP on TikTok. We are all for making a statement that's authentically you, whether it's a splash of color or a chic suit. White NOT required this time around.    Hot Tips for Shopping: Timing is everything. Which means, not shopping too early, which means NOT jumping the gun on buying that dress or those shoes you love 11 months in advance. A six to eight-month lead time is perfect for making sure you're absolutely in love with your choices.   For the Guests: A shoutout to Jane, our loyal listener, who wanted to ask Holly if she liked a particular dress for a wedding she was going to attend in October. Shopping too early is a fashion crime. Don't. Do. It. If you do, believe me, it will lose it's luster. Wait for the invite before splurging on that perfect dress.   Final Thoughts: Whether it's your wedding, or someone else's, remember, to use this opportunity to be the best-dressed wedding guest.

Hey there fashion besttiiieess! Welcome to Episode 173 of the Fashion Crimes Podcast where your favorite personal stylist, Holly Katz, shares her fashion formula for surviving the holidays in style. In this episode, we're diving into holiday outfit inspiration. Get ready for some fabulous tips, newly-discovered brands you need to know - and the secret to enjoying this event-FULL season stress-free! #YAASS LISTEN HERE NOW!   Whether you are chilling at home or hitting up a fancy event, we’ve got you covered.  But before you get totally overwhelmed, please know that this episode is about being prepared for ANY holiday event - from dressy parties to hanging out at home with your family. The key is to not wait until the last minute to plan your outfits - and to pick easy, versatile, and comfortable styles that celebrate the season-whatever you celebrate. HOLLY’S HOLIDAY OUTFIT PICKS:   Maxi Skirt Magic:  How to Wear:   Pair a maxi skirt with an oversized cozy sweater or a chic turtleneck, wide belt and a boot for a comfortable, yet stylish look. Perfect for at-home gatherings or casual outings.  Holly shares her go-to outfit plan for comfort and style, which includes a pleated maxi skirt, a T-shirt, boots, and a denim jacket, blazer or cropped cardigan.    Accessorizing Tips:   Add a statement belt (studs or stones) or some fun jewelry to elevate the outfit. Don’t forget a pair of stylish boots (high heel or cowboy style), or low heel sling backs – the hottest shoe this year!  Wonderful Wide-Leg Pants:  How to Wear:   Holly recommends wide leg pants as a comfortable and versatile fashion trend that can be worn year round. Combine these with a fitted top or a sleek blazer for a balanced silhouette. Ideal for both casual and formal events. Accentuate your waist with a skinny belt (yes, a skinny belt) and tuck in your top if you can.  For this look, a sneaker is a great option, loafer or a lug sole boot. Favorite New Brand:   Holly loves brands that offer stylish yet comfortable options, perfect for those holiday dinners and parties. A fabulous new brand that came her way is ME +EM. Check them out!   Just Jumpsuits:  How to Wear:   A jumpsuit can be a complete outfit on its own, and Holly recommends them for their ability to be dressed up or down. They are a flattering option for any body type! Choose one in a festive color or with an interesting pattern. Add a belt to accentuate your waist. Great for travel!!! Holly recommends jumpsuits for their versatility and practicality – and offers suggestions to elevating the look by pairing them with a jacket or fun heel.  Layering for Warmth:   In cooler weather, layer it with a leather moto, oversized chunky cardigan or a cropped blazer.  Party Dresses:  How to Wear:  If you are invited to a corporate party or to someone’s home for a dinner party or open house, just assume it's dressy.  Find dresses you already own in our closet (even sleeveless or strapless in the winter) and dress them up by adding tops and shirts UNDERNEATH, or by adding layers on top.   Accessorize:  Taking time to add statement pieces like a bold pattern jacket, a knit wrap or pattern scarf, chunky jewelry, or colored bag can go a long way to formalizing any dress your already own. If you must go shopping, then this is the best time of the year to get a great deal. Holiday Readiness and Organization:    Be Prepared for All Occasions:   Holly advises having a go-to outfit ready for different types of holiday events, from casual family gatherings to more formal parties. Keep your closet organized and cohesive to avoid feeling like you have ‘nothing to wear.’      Pajama Chic with Katie Kime:    Stylish Pajama Option:   Holly recently received a pair of fun and fancy PJs for her 50th and now recommends the Katie Kime brand for stylish pajamas that are comfortable, yet chic enough to wear in front of guests. Who says you can't wear fabulous pajamas around your fam These pajamas strike the perfect balance between loungewear and guest-appropriate attire, making them a great choice for holiday mornings or casual home gatherings.  And with that – you are Holiday Event-Ready! Be sure to see examples of all of these recommendations on Holly’s Pinterest Board.   Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays!  PS:   NEED A LAST MINUTE GIFT FOR THE HOLIDAYS????
