I believe a comfortable and stylish shoe is essential to adding a spark to any outift. At the age of 66, I gave up high heels. Leather loafers and nice sneakers are my go-to shoes for the spring/summer. Low-heel ankle boots in the autumn/winter work amazingly well for me. I would rather invest in shoes than in high-price handbags. Coach is my choice of well-made handbags. My wish is to invest in a handbag from Polene. ECCO has some wonderful choices for shoe style and comfort. I am still looking for a fabulous navy blazer that fits my petite stature. Thanks for your inspiration.
I like your videos when you’re calm, as in this one after the intro. I don’t want to buy designer bags, I just want high-quality, classic, genuine-leather ones. Michael Kors and Coach are good, and there are several others in this mid-price range. I’ll happily pay the extra for high-quality, but not for status symbols.
I agree. I like the calm videos better. All the laughing and squealing is too much for me. If you look back at older videos, V didn’t do that as much. I enjoyed those more. Just my 2 cents. I’m sure plenty will disagree with me.
I think the squealing has gotten more and more and it is a bit much. Valentina has a cute impulsive bubbly personality but she is exxaggerating it lately - as in the last couple of years.
Thank you for reminding all of us that if we try things on and they don’t fit, it’s the clothes NOT our bodies. Trying clothes on is daunting! I love your channel! ❤😊
Loved it!! Great video!! Please continue to be just as happy and bubbly as you want . I look forward to it all. I love your enthusiasm it’s contagious and makes my day❤
Thank you for a great video. The stlyish woman that I grew up with always wore or carried a shawl/scarf/pashmina and a heavy pue e of geniue gold jewelry that carried its own story-past down.
Do you have recommendations for bustier women with smaller rib cages? I love your style, but I find that a lot of things I love on you would not work well for a 34H chest or would leave me feeling so self conscious about that area. I have a terrible time with blazers!
I see that you and Jack have prospered. I am happy for you. Your price points have escalated to where I have ideas and not able to buy your recommendations. Congratulations
Just found your channel and I love this video! I totally agree and would add smooth well kept hair even a sleek ponytail..also manicured hands ..looking forward to watching more of your channel!
I do a lot of Coach/MK. I feel you get your money’s worth. I’m really tough on my bags - and these bags are made to last. I just make sure I only buy leather from their premium releases and I’m good to go. If anybody has a certain opinion, you can just say you like supporting American Brands and that’s that.
I use my iron and full-size steamer almost daily, on virtually all my clothes. We partitioned off the portion of our garage where the laundry machines are and now I have a “laundry room”. It’s great because I can leave my ironing board and steamer out and I added a big stand fan and a clothesline and rack. I don’t machine-dry any clothes unless I deliberately want to shrink them. I’ve been doing this a lot because if weight loss recently. The hot dryer is really hard on fabrics because there is no liquid to reduce the friction, as in the washer. Nothing with elastane or elastic should ever go in the dryer, it loses it stretch and rebound right away. I hang just-washed clothes up or place them on racks, then turn on my big fan, it cuts drying time in half.
Valentina, I'm loving ALL of this post! Thank you... BTW, did you know that Target also has some really wonderful minimizer bras in neutral toned smooth cup styles too!? :) Okay, off to buy blazers! LOVE!!!
A girl never loses her style. Life always changes and evolves. Enjoy life with the tools you have. Sometimes adversity gives more depth and richness to our lives.

Those are shirts, though, not blouses, excluding the cami. Shirts open in the front, blouses open in the back. It’s not necessary, but I’m calling these button-front shirts, although just “shirt” is sufficient, because so many people erroneously call them “button-down shirts”. However fancy, whatever fabric, if it opens in front it’s a shirt. The vast majority of them aren’t “button-down shirts” which refers to a casual shirt collar style where the collar buttons “down” to the shirt front to keep it from flapping up during sports, it’s mostly a menswear detail that was designed for playing polo. Silk and linen shirts are staples in my wardrobe. Linen in summer heat, and silk the rest of the year. I think it’s well worth paying more for genuine silk, sometimes called mulberry silk, because of its superior quality and breathability. Polyester tops of any kind are miserable to wear, one might as well wear Saran Wrap. Plus, silk items have intrinsic value, so if classic and well-cared for, will appeal to future wearers. I don’t care that much about getting resale money, but it makes me happy if someone else will want to wear it after me. Natural fibers are sustainable and biodegradable, but mostly they just feel great on the body.
Have you tried other cosmetics? There are so many better companies out there than Dior. You are just buying for the name.Sorry!! I will buy high end quality products.
“Gentleness, kindness, and grace that flows from within.” When we want to elevate our personal style, we should start with these qualities.
I agree with you 💯, Valentina.
A seamless or t-shirt bra elevates an outfit 100%.
A stylish woman always smiles, too.🥰
You crack me up - I hope you are always really this happy and energetic. You're contagious!

I think classy stylish women also wear real gold jewelry that isn’t “trendy” but timeless pieces.
Could not agree more!
I absolutely agree with you.

Thank you, Valentina. Very important tips. 💕
You are so funny!! I love it. I always get excited to see a video from you. Thanks again for another lovely content.
Love, love, love this video Valentina! 🌟
Of course I love traveling with you guys 😎 ❤
Just found your channel and I love this video! I totally agree and would add smooth well kept hair even a sleek ponytail..also manicured hands ..looking forward to watching more of your channel!
Love your enthusiasm!!
I love the simplicity of your makeup yet very pretty.
A good haircut! A manicure & pedicure!
Thank you Valentina! Love your TH-cam videos!❤

Thank you for high end and budget friendly… so appreciated!💕💕💕

These are such great tips to inspire us! Thanks!
Fingers and toes manicured, hair styled causally, and have a beautiful pair of sunglasses
I loved this one and could not agree more and actually I’m so proud to say I have, and do them all. 😘💕
Addition....Little Black Dress! (and multiple versions of a timeless black dress) :). You could do a whole video on LBDs!
Je adore Dior🎉❤
What color is that beautiful deep blue paint behind you called? Please tell me! 🙏🏻
Yayyyy 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Valentina, I'm loving ALL of this post! Thank you...
BTW, did you know that Target also has some really wonderful minimizer bras in neutral toned smooth cup styles too!? :)

Where is the dress you have on from?
Good
Stylish women also wear good shapewear.
I love you but I feel your videos have been very commercially lately. Most of your viewers cannot afford Dior.
Actually, I used to be a lot like you Valentina when I was younger. But I lost all of my style and elegance when I was 54 and had a very bad stroke

I just don’t want to spend $300 to $3,000 plus on a bag!

Valentina, you ised to have genuine recommendations. Now I don't know if it is because you are being paid to promote certain items.
Strapless bras are the worst. They never give good support. No leather shoes for me, vegan leather is great nowadays.
Have you tried other cosmetics? There are so many better companies out there than Dior. You are just buying for the name.Sorry!! I will buy high end quality products.
