Stacy London: Reinvent Yourself (and Your Style) in Midlife

Weil once you know your shape and once you know the shapes that fit your shape, which again also takes a little bit of work to understand. But that's what Dress Your Best was about, the book that Clinton and I wrote. That's geometry, that's color forms. Do you need more volume on top, more volume on bottom? How do you work those things out? It's like putting a puzzle together.

Dann musst du dein Gehirn, weil das ist, wo der Stil beginnt, zu stoppen, zu denken, was mir früher gut aussah, sieht jetzt nicht gut aus. Was du denken musst, ist, hier ist das Körper. Ich weiß, was ich mag, und ich weiß, was ich nicht mag. Ich beginne von Anfang an. Ich beginne mit dem Körper, das ich heute habe. And then you think about what in my closet compliments me still and what does not.

And I don't mean compliments or flattering in a way that's just patriarchal. Like, look at me, pick me, all that bullshit. In a way that makes you feel however you want to feel. For me, when I was younger on What Not to Wear, I wanted to feel sexy. I wore tight, you know, pencil skirts and five inch heels. And I wanted people to be like, she's kind of hot.

Ich fühle mich nicht in der gleichen Weise. I go to the gym because I want to be stronger every day, because I want to walk when I'm 85. And that is a question of perspective. Your perspective changes as you age. Your priorities change as you age. And if you can think about that across every aspect of your life, every aspect of your life will only get better.

You have to allow for things to be different. And we hate change. As humans, we hate it. We hate it. We're afraid of it. We're terrified. Who moves my cheese? That's what I always think about. What? Change? And also I saw it in my grandmother. I see it in my mom. There's a narrowing of what feels safe if we don't stay out there.

You want things to be organized in a certain way. I remember moving my mom's aspirin or something. She was like, put it back where you found it. Those are things your world will get smaller if you don't go out and do big things. You gotta do big things. You're always doing big things.

If it's family, you can't get rid of them, right? You can just be like, nobody asked for your opinion, Mom, thanks, right? That's one, I think it's really important to stand up for yourself. Like, and what not to wear, there was a sign that said, no miniskirts after 35, because at that time, we said, look, this is not age appropriate. If it works for you. I don't care.
