Style Tips For Men Over 50 - Things To Avoid
About this video
Weston addresses how older gentlemen (50+) can dress well without appearing to try too hard or dress too young. She covers specific items and style choices to avoid, including logo-heavy pieces, excessive cologne and jewelry, distressed clothing, poor-fitting garments, and certain outerwear, while emphasizing the importance of clean, streamlined fits and refined styling choices.
Key takeaways
- Weston argues older men should avoid logo-heavy clothing, excessive cologne or jewelry, distressed items, and ill-fitting clothes—whether too loose or too tight
- Weston recommends replacing athletic shoes like New Balance with stylish classic sneakers, and avoiding sandals except in beach or swimming contexts
- Weston argues that suede bomber jackets are more appropriate than leather jackets for older men, as leather reads as attention-seeking and younger, while suede conveys refinement and understatement
