We talk a lot about trends here at Who What Wear but today we're acknowledging that not every style movement is right for everyone. Each season, we try to take stock of our own closets and decide what's worth retiring and what's worth adding to our closets all in the name of paring down. To continue this conversation, we tapped our resident style expert, Susan Feldman, who recently did an audit of her closet.
Today, she's sharing which items she's retiring (forever or for the time being) and which pieces she's feeling the most satisfied by right now. Feldman is the founder of One King's Lane and In the Groove, a style destination where Feldman shares her age-defying outfits and shopping tips. Whether you're here to get inspiration on fashion for older women or simply curious to see find out which items Feldman is banning and keeping, keep reading for her take on style right now and then, if you're so inclined to, shop the items she's loving most these days.
"I know that every It girl has been wearing and/or covering those big, over-the-top chunky designer sneakers from houses like Balenciaga, Louis Vuitton, and Gucci. Although I know they’re very comfortable, I just couldn’t wrap my head around this one. I love sneakers, but I just need something a little on the mild-mannered side."
"I've always been a fan of vintage denim, but I am jumping on this train big time. I just love the color and the feel of vintage and even vintage-inspired jeans. They all that lived-in feeling that looks great (hello non-stretch denim!) and makes you feel good too."
"I’ve always loved leopard. In fact, I never met a leopard print that I didn’t like. Personally, I think of it more as a neutral than a pattern, but after the past few seasons when everyone has been so leopard crazy, I need to take a break. It was just a little too much, and although I’m sure I’ll be back in a year or two, I’m bidding au revoir to leopard for now."
"I remember sporting a fanny pack way back when, and I didn’t think it would be something I would embrace again. But this is a good reminder never to say never, because I am loving the fanny pack trend. Or are they called belt bags now? Either way, they look super chic and it forces me to only carry what I need. I’ve gotta say, not carrying a bag on my shoulder feels liberating."
"It’s funny, I was wearing jumpsuits before it was an actual 'trend'. While I love how easy and chic they are, in this case, jumpsuits are too much of a good thing for me. No more jumpsuits in the near future."
"I can’t get enough of the layered necklace look. I love being able to mix my old favorites with new finds and feel like I got a completely fresh look. It also lets me channel my creative side into jewelry styling. Usually, I live by less is more, but this is the one time where more is really more."
