Today we’re taking an up north trip with Claudeen from Toronto:

She writes, “My fashion style is classic meets chic even though I consider myself to be a versatile dresser.”

” I am big fan of all things vintage.”


” I do not have to be trendy to look stylish.”


” I love recreating looks and making them my own.”


” I really do put a lot thought into my daily looks, but I’m a great lover of fashion!”


Lovely. Colorblocking always works, no? If you like, see more of Claudeen’s style at mychicstyle.tumblr.com.

  1. awww…I love love her mantra “I do not have to be trendy to look stylish.”

    I love that…a lot of people think you have to be “trendy” or rock Brands/labels….its all in how to but it together…..from head to toe

  2. Toronto in the house!

    Very age appropriate, but don’t wow me. I like the pastel blue sweater and cream slacks, very nice.

  3. Claudine you look FAB! I especially love the fit of the clothes – feminine without baring skin or being too tight! now i’m off to get a pair of yellow trousers :)

  4. She’s cute! I think a better hair hat would work wonders and enhance her look, though. Love the last outfit!

  5. Being that I am Canadian I am disappointed with her submission. It’s a rare that a Canadian submits so for it to be her…..:(

    Getting into the fashion – I liked most of her outfits (SANS THE SHOES) except that black sweater dress….that was tragic (Jesus take the wheel). She does dress like an older, mature women with some style and class so I can appreciate that.

    I found the wig VERY distracting…..not a good look, very “Queen of the Dancehall” to me.

  6. Love her!! Her style is nice! You can tell she doesnt have to dress like a 21 year old to get attention like a lot of older women who claim to love fashion. Good for her!!

  7. @camilla, that was kind of a rude comment…the people that read this blog dress a million different ways, if she thought they her daily style was something to be shared…saying that you are sad (the frowny face) it was her to represent your country is RUDE….

    i think she dresses very nicely! she is not a 20 something…but whatever her age, she looks amazing and confident and thats all that matters…her clothes FIT and flatter her shape and overrall look…so she gets a HUGE kudos from me…she is ROCKING everything…the last pic, the pale yellow pants with the peep toe…GORG!!!!

    as far as hair…i dont like fake hair or any kind…so im not a fan….however, i do like a short cut on her, it looks nice and flatters her bone structure

  8. I really wish I bought that pink necklace from H&M. I love the contrast w the mint. Although I’m not wowed I just can’t help but be partial to my fellow Canadian. Canada up in the building brap brap!

  9. I think she looks fabulous. I see so many badly dressed older women who want to look 19 when they left that age like 3 decades ago. She looks classy and to me that’s always the best look.

  10. Love her looks. You can tell she has a distinct stance on fashion.

    SN: it irritates me when people comment on a bombshells hair. Unless the person appears totally unkempt, how do you know WHY they are wearing a wig? smh

  11. T-Dot stand up and shut the door behind you! Very well put together! wigs gotta go but the fits stay!!
    T-DOT!!!!!!

  12. I wish some of my coworkers who are my senior would come in the office looking like this. I think she’s doing better than most her age… I do agree that the hair is a no go and the shoes especially the pink needed be of better quality.

  13. How can you tell something looks cheap from a pic? She says she loves vintage and most vintage clothes are much better quality than brands or regular stores clothing. I think she looks well put together. Classy for her age and still a bit fun and youthful

  14. Nice office attire. the shoes and hair could be better cause they both can destroy a cute outfit.

  15. Toronto stand up!!!!!

    I think her outfits are very age appropriate! I especially like the pastel outfit.

    Yes, the synthie wig ages her a bit and the shoe game could use some help, but overall, she made me smile :)

  16. Love the versatility in selecting the bombshell of the day. I agree, her looks are very age appropriate and classic. Werk Claudine!!!

  17. Another request for ‘mature bombshells’ Loving the fact she’s Canadian, too! Best outfit was the black/white stripped dress. And what’s the matter with the shoes? Sometimes some of y’all need to step back :lol:

  18. Oh so now because she’s older, she gets all the nice comments???? FOH Some of you readers need to reason. Now no one is talking about how she’s wearing the same wig or her poor choices in shoes. Hmmm. She could do better…

  19. And another request for “women of a certain age” bombshells and style and fashion tips.

  20. She looks great, but why in the world is she posing in front of Old City Hall courthouse in every photo?

  21. Give it to ’em Ma’am! She is doing it. Love her. She is so sophisticated and love showing the ‘mature’ bombshell. Props Claire!

  22. I knew she was going to get a pass because she’s old. Her accessories clash in the stripped dress picture (aviators and oversized pearls?) Her best look is the one with the blue sweater. I’d say she went 2 for 5 (the yellow pant outfit isn’t too bad.

  23. Ok, just looked at her blog and she had way better outfits on their she could have submitted. I just saw 2 back to back outfit post where she looks amazing.

  24. I think the wig needs to be more real looking. combed towards her face she looks stunning. I think her overall look is great for her age group. I wish I saw more women in this group embrace style…my mom has KILLA legs and wears the most dowdy outfits or wears stuff too young for her and just looks odd. I can’t tell her that….cuz I’m her baby. But I just want to take her shopping for what would look nice on her like Claudeen’s style….my mom could surely rock this look!

  25. Claudeen looks great – you can tell she is having a lot of fun and enjoying switching up her looks. Being creative on an everyday basis is tough and I give her props.

  26. Wow, ppl can be so “Opinionated” aka (Negative)
    I think she looks fly….hope im rockin all cute when I get to her level :)

  27. Let me tell you something: MAMA IS WORKING AND SHOWING SOME OF THE YOUNG CHICKS HOW ITS DONE !
    love her style !!!

  28. I agree with you Browness, I have read a lot of comments on this blog site and am amazed at them. Everyone has an opinion but geez some of these comments make no sense. I am still searching for her age as everyone keeps making reference to it. Is her age posted on this post? I do not see it on her blog either. You guys are weirdos LOL. Almost every comment is on her age and I do not see her age anywhere on this post. Come one people!

  29. BTW, I love her style, she looks great. Just looked at her entire blog. Bombshell for me. WTG, girl

  30. Claire, do you know her age? I was just wondering if you posted it and I am the only one not seeing LOL

  31. Claudeen… you rockin it gurl! You hit the mark 5 out of 5 days a week.. I’m lucky I get one good look every other week! lmao… Love the looks..love the advice… love the smile! Lemme know when you’re on vacation again so I can come up and jook a few tings! Love ya! G

  32. Claudeen looks GREAT! The classic cut of her clothes compliments her frame very well. She is confident, and doesnt need to ‘dress young’ to look good.
    YOU GO GIRL!
