@valerie_bragdon: Did a whole generation forget the golden rule… “If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all”? 🤍 Sharing my style at 43 has never been about pleasing everyone—it’s about having fun, expressing myself, and reminding women that we don’t become invisible as we get older. Not every outfit will be everyone’s taste (and that’s okay!), but I’ll always choose confidence over playing it safe. ✨ Here’s to wearing what makes you feel like YOU—at every age. #StyleOver40 #FashionOver40 #EverydayStyle #WomenOver40 #Over40Creator

Girl, I hopped in the comment section to defend you. It was ridiculous and so unnecessary. I also mentioned and feel like it’s worth taking into account that being a KC area person myself, fashion in this area is not quite as “creative” or “out there” as it is on the coast or in bigger cities. You incorporate trendier looks that I don’t frequently see out in the wild. I didn’t think any of your outfits were boring at all!

For what it’s worth I worked on making my outfits less boring last week on vacation and it was because of you. For every one cranky judgey person there’s a lot more who you inspire. 🥰

I will NEVER understand someone coming into someone else's comments section to say something negative, especially after you posted something so positive (and were clearly loving what you were wearing and feeling confident!). Like, to take the time to say something negative about someone who feels and looks awesome? It's gross. You were one of the first 40-ish year old creators I saw unapologetically getting dressed, feeling confident, and sharing her outfits on here. I've taken a TON of inspiration from you (I even have a screenshot of one of your outfits I want to recreate).

Just went through the round up and 1- I agree with you, two, I’d like to see what those dips are wearing that are SO “not boring,” and finally- wear the effing flip flops, I can’t stop buying them for the first time in decades lol

I agree. I just don’t understand WHY people think they have the right to make a comment when they don’t like something. Scroll on…. Why am I on your FYP? If you comment- you’ll keep getting my videos. I am so tired of people being mean for no reason. It used to be that people were just awful online. Unfortunately; current climate in our country has led some people to believe that being cruel or disrespectful to others is acceptable!!

People are just looking to spread hate or rain on other people’s parade! Don’t pay attention to that I’m sure more of us enjoyed it and the most important part should always be YOU ENJOYED IT!

I love your style! I see/understand your aestetics as an expression of freedom and authenticity, so I would love and respect it even if I didn't like it (and I do 😊). Social media comments provide us with an insight into minds of others with no external accountability - isn't it sad to see just how cruel people get? Luckily, there are so many kind people out there too. Please keep in mind there are so many of us who watch in admiration 😊

I don’t understand the need people have to post negativity…it’s all keyboard courage. They would NEVER say that in person. What makes you awesome is how relatable you are. And I love your outfits!

Sometimes videos get pushed out to the wrong audience but also I will never understand why people will waste their time writing something negative 🫠

miss heather :
OMG I’ve been just swinging in and out of this app bc it mostly just makes me feel sad lately! I had to just pop in to say (as l looked back at the post you referred to) that people just need to scroll on and keep their negative thoughts to themselves!! They were very rude!! ). You also shouldn’t have to explain yourself at ALL. Also as long as you love yourself and what you’re putting on makes you feel happy or cooler bc it’s hot af outside that’s all that truly matters. People are out of control these days.

And the thing is they would never say it to your face! I either just delete the comment or respond with something snarky. But yes people are getting really bold in these TT streets!
