I'd love a video on what accessories and jewelry are "in style" now. I'm in my 40s and I feel like the long necklace with a medallion or charms was the thing for so long. I know those aren't on trend anymore but I don't know what to look for next. Same with belts, bracelets, even hair clips. You'd be some I would listen to on this topic!! 💕
Thank you for such a great video. I have always followed fashion and gotten many compliments through my 76 years on this planet. Seventeen months ago, I experienced a life threatening health scare and I am one of a few that are lucky to still be here. It has been a long road back and I am just beginning to feel like I can think about fashion and not just about staying alive and your video has inspired me! I love your style, you are knowledgeable and very gorgeous. I love your look - the dark lip color is balanced with your necklace and nail polish - everything is a perfect example of what you are teaching in your video!
Great tips . I totally agree that dress pants are more comfortable then jeans for me . I work in an office that is very casual but I have found several dress pants at Costco no less that are so comfortable.
"Basics are masculine" - THANK YOU! If you look at the typical neutral capsule wardrobe or just the list of basics you're "supposed to" have, 90+% of it could be worn by a man and you wouldn't know the difference. It's kind of sad that feminine styles and cuts of clothing aren't popular or recommended by many people, because I think a lot of women would really look better in something that fits the shape of a woman's body instead of a man's.
I'm short at 5'1 and when I was pre-pregnancy I was naturally very curvy but I look like I have a short waist BC I have broad shoulders, wider hips and then a larger bra size. I always felt back then that I was "fat" and now that I'm older I realize I just didn't understand how to dress to create an illusion, plus I wanted to hide my body so I always looked boxy. Now I'm almost 40 and I have about 50 extra pounds mostly on my belly and while I do exercise I am on meds that just make losing it next to impossible (with my budget), but interestingly enough I still have the same issues with feeling "boxy" in clothes, so a lot of the same rules apply, like a wide leg pant accentuates my broader hips while a skinny pant or even leggings, shows my curves in a good way and defines my bottom half actually exists! On top I obviously wear shorts long enough too cover my butt or a longer cardigan with shape cut into it, or like a flannel top that when hung looks like it's got a waist in the cut, opposed to an oversized men's t-shirt which just falls from my shoulders and girls and hides the existence of a waist... I'm an XL in a lot of things but because of vanity sizing (grrr) I have things that fit perfectly in a ton of sizes. My closet is basically medium to 2X and I can easily be wearing 3 sizes in one outfit. So the dressing room or for online shopping reading reviews, is really helpful to make sure you're getting the right size for your body. I should also add that if you have a good tailor or you're willing to learn (I'm simply not) that it can open up even more options in taking things in our meeting them out, altering length etc and we ALL need to remember that most of the stars also have a tailor or a personal shopper who simply knows what style they want and how to fit it and wear it. A ton of them don't wake up in the morning and go to their closets, they instead go to see the outfits, including accessories, that have been artfully laid out for them by their stylist knowing full well that they'll get their photo taken while they're out in ripped shorts and a grudge top etc. This is why we are surprised how the famous look when we see a photo of them out for a morning run -they aren't styled yet!
I would love to hear your thoughts about what styles are best for different body types. Also, what stores do you think cater to each specific body type.
15:23 Yes! This is so true! Especially if you're addicted to leggings, give a pair of Betabrand's Dress Pant Yoga Pants a try and you'll be an instant convert. They're also frequently on sale + widely available on secondhand markets online, so don't balk at the price tags! I've never paid full price and have six pairs.
I think the cut ( silhouette) of your outfit is what can make or break it. I include proportion in silhouette. So if you like a menswear or sporty tomboy look but have a very feminine shape, you will probably have to either A) have things altered or B) pay attention to the cut & silhouette of the pieces you are putting together. I love tee shirts but I avoid crew necks & anything too long or boxy or too thick/ stiff. No men's tees for me. I look for curves. Curved hemlines, scoop or v necks, & shirt that curves in & then out so if worn out ( untucked) it follows my natural shape. Preferably in a drapey not clingy fabric. I love rayon/ tencel/ cotton blends for softness & drape. They now make leisure pants ( sweats) in much more elevated cuts & fabrics. Ponte knits are another option. As comfy as leggings or sweats but looks more...purposeful. You don't have to look frumpty dumpty in basics or leisure wear.
Angela- inlive paycheck to paycheck as an RN in CA. I HATE shopping & i typically just wear whatever friemds and family give me that fit.. i been wearing the same 4 jeans now for 4 yrs… if you had my info and could just pick out all the Thred Ups that YOU think would look good on me- i would pay you (or ayone interested) just to pick out thred up items for me.. i cant afford more than $20-40 for somwone to choose my Thred up items- I would be thrilled. Im not picky, lol- Too much. 52 yrs old , 5-4 and 130lbs… size 4 pants, s/med top w long torso… nice little rack, 34-D
NO idea how to accesorize- (no idea what looks good vs cheap) … crazy because my girlfriend who no longer live in my same city, are very fashionable… So when we get together, they give me their stuff to try on and then they just order me that, lol… I wouldn’t know the difference between a belt or one that looks super cheap.
Would love a video on how you lost weight especially after twins!! And that belly flab its so embarrassing to me. 😢 i have had 7babies that last were twins & im still breastfeeding but need this flab to go away 😅
@crawleyr4919 well that's sad. I'm sorry. There's so many resources and food banks & if that poor food stamps. We eat very healthy & not much processed anything. I just don't have the time to work out much or focus a lot on me at this point in my life, I have 7 I homeschool, am a homemaker first & foremost, which means focusing on healthy living and cooking, cleaning and making sure my house is smoothly running with 9 people in it! Then I'm a crafter on the side when I have the chance... that makes us our holiday and fun $$ some years (not this last 2years with twins though🤪) We have animals and gardens and extracurriculars, I'm always on the go go but it doesn't seem to help my weight & belly 🫣
As delightful as you are, I'm distracted by trying to match the outfits with your links. Would you consider numbering the outfits or even leaving the picture up longer, please?

Love watching your video's! ❤

Thanks!! I got the special price and a special treat for me since I am turning 50 next month.
Lovely ideas...very helpful!!!...Thank you❤❤❤

Thank you. I love the way you dressed up the baseball jersey! :)
Could you please list a few stores for each body type? Thanks!
Stores for body type??
Yes I would like that too
Great Video! What are some of your favorite stores or brands to buy the wide leg dress pants from? I would like to invest in a good pair.
Short-waisted or short-torso… not many stylists or influencers addressing that this is also why “basic” outfits do not look right
Ordered and I appreciate the discount code!
Learning my Kibbe body type has helped me so much! There’s a channel called Aly Art that describes the body types and how to find yours.

I have a ‘super model’ frame (6ft, size 4) and I’m here to tell you I look frumpy too half the time 😂
You look so chic in this video ❤
Tried to order the Blumeme but it’s from Canada so my bank won’t put the order through.. is there another way to pay?
I’m literally getting ready to go to my grandma’s 90th birthday party 🎉 And I have no idea what I’m going to wear…
Nice Job Angela
Do you have to purchase gels with Bumene?
Great content thank you
Okay, but what lipstick is that?
Angela- inlive paycheck to paycheck as an RN in CA.

Soft muffin top with umbilical hernia so nothing too snug and thin- or it looks like another boob on my tummy.
@crawleyr4919
You definitely gotta keep those friends!
but what if your (my) body type is a potato?
Would love a video on how you lost weight especially after twins!! And that belly flab its so embarrassing to me. 😢 i have had 7babies that last were twins & im still breastfeeding but need this flab to go away 😅
What worked for me was separating from husband and being too poor to grocery shop🤷🏼♀️
@crawleyr4919 well that's sad. I'm sorry. There's so many resources and food banks & if that poor food stamps.
We eat very healthy & not much processed anything.
