Thank God , you're not styling me. I would never wear your today's outfit. Frankly, I find professional stylists' permanent excitement irritating. I will never forget the 1980s when I, a newcomer to NYC (no English), was quite busy surviving and couldn't find anything to wear and put into my apartment. I, petite, with a classic hourglass figure despised military/corporate/idiotic/masculine clothes with football shoulders that flooded stores then just like I despised chintzes, chintzes everywhere. I hated all this, just like I hated the professionals' happy babbling. You clearly have a good sense of style, shapes and colors, but how can you not see that this combination is just ugly? When it comes to the boring argument.. I don't know on which planet you live. But I, living on the planet Earth, get much more excitement than I need. Give me boredom or give me death.
Love the short intro and the focus on info. Thank you. I’m a healthy, active 80 year old and use almost every tip to update my wardrobe and keep it fun and up to date. No one, repeat, no one come close to the useful style tips you give! Thank you!
One of the reasons I was drawn to your channel is that you embrace color. I am so tired of the gray/beige direction so many on TH-cam have adopted both in fashion and interiors. Why are so many afraid of a little color and pattern. Throughout my life I have embraced color and pattern in every aspect of my life. I wouldn’t want to live without rich colors! Especially the rich jewels tones that suit me so well. Thank you for bringing us back to the world of color. 🫶🏻💕😊
Ellena, what attracted me to your channel was your use of colour, which has been a refreshing backdrop against all the quiet luxury videos that somehow dictated we should all be wearing monotone shades of grey or beige when these don’t suit everyone. I love the unexpected juxtaposition of colours you use to add interest to outfits and how you explain their relationship to the colour wheel. It’s logical but never boring! Personally, I like to use navy or the blue in denim as my neutral colour base and then add a pop of colour for interest. This is something I have learned from you. Thank you! By the way, you have the perfect name :-)
Ellena you should have been with me this morning! Over the past few days, I have grown tired of my wardrobe! It's dark, cold and we still have two months of winter - here in the UK!! I do wear trousers occasionally but am more of a jeans person. ( Only wear dresses in the summer) So this morning I went shopping for new trousers - thinking this is what my wardrobe needs - instead of wearing jeans all the time. However while shopping I was sooo disappointed with the choice of trousers and the quality 😮😮! Has anyone else found that??? I did however purchase a pair of cream - yes, jeans for the spring/summers. Just made myself a coffee and put TH-cam on. And there you are, telling me I can wear jeans, just change the accessories!! I never even thought that would make a difference. So next week I shall be going accessories shopping! Thank you so much for enlightening me!!
I’m so glad you are here for me! I turned 64 yesterday. And I am a total Jean girl. This video opened my eyes to how to snazz up my jeans. I have been adding pieces to my wardrobe as I watch your videos. As you say confession time. I shop totally at Goodwill 😊. I’m finding new items that I purchased for $5 up to maybe $10, that retail for hundreds of dollars. Maybe I shouldn’t let my secret out. But to you, I will. Thank you again for helping me so much. I can’t wait to get a jump on spring with my new styles. Oh yes, I do wear bold colors. Now I can just do it better. I also used to wear cute heels, but I can’t wear them any more. So my now go to boots are my cowboy boots. I too go for the unusual/boho styles. Have a great day. Sandra K
Sandra, your comment made my day! I'm so glad I could help you revamp your jean game. Your kind words mean the world to me. Wishing you a fabulous spring filled with fashion-forward outfits! P.S. HAppy Birthday! Wishing you all the best!!! ❤
This is so true! Get out of that cosy box...at the young age of 70 , I have invested in my first ever straight leg jeans... and enjoyed styling it with my Chanel type jackets, colourful pasminas ..never to old to shoshin
I love these ideas! As a retiree my wardrobe is much more casual and jeans are my go to. Would love to see this same series for your Mom. As we age our bodies change and outfits don’t quite look the same.
I love, love bright colours especially near my face. Your channel is one of the very few that embraces colour. That fuchsia sweater is simply stunning. I’m learning a lot from you. Analogous colours are my faves. Thanks for all you do to teach us about colour. Not into neutrals - even my house does not have any creams, beiges, taupes, browns and neither my husband or myself like these colours. We have black, white and grey as our neutrals and turquoise, teal and plum as accent colours with a tiny bit of lime green.
I was on my way to sell my burgundy shirt that I wasn't wearing and then I saw Your video and how beautiful burgundy and denim go together❤ Thank You for saving me from selling this shirt😁
I was practically born in Levi's, so denim is my go-to, with everything from velvet jackets to basic tees. But over the years I've found that nothing complements denim quite like orange. Thanks for your great content!
Your fashion outlook makes me so happy!! So tired of fashion influencers wearing only beige, gray, cream, and brown with the occasional navy or burgundy. I LOVE color and believe it can be just as elevated - just as you show here!! ❤
I love color, and especially colorful prints and florals. I've never been much for neutrals. I like jeans, but usually wear other pants much more often especially black, navy, royal blue. I love the combination of blue and green, also with yellow and purple.
I love how you show how to elevate basic jeans - my favorite haha. I live in a very hot climate and a lot of your advice is to pile on layers which is difficult to do when it's 115°F outside. Do you think you can help with a video for styles in warm weather that can keep one cool, covered, and fashionable? Ty❤
Thank you for your lovely comment! I'll definitely work on creating a video about hot climate outfits, but closer to summer here in Portugal... Stay tuned and thank you again for your support!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I retired seven years ago, from teaching and wore blazers and skirts and slacks, and always liked a pop of red. I still like a pop of red! working from home of our small farm, means that I wear a lot of denim, which I love. I really appreciate you showing examples of how to dress up my denim looks. AND. I never miss your daily outfits
Who says working from home on a small farm can't be stylish? Denim is the perfect combo of comfort and fashion-forward!!! Thank you for your comment!!! ❤
Great ideas for styling jeans in different ways Ellena. I love navy and burgundy. I also love scarves so I’m so delighted you use them frequently in your styling. Thank you. Xx
Hi Ellena☺️ You are so humble. You respect the fashion choices of others while you stay true to your own fashion style. I love how you explain everything and we really learn a lot from you.❤
I love your color combos a lot of which I don’t think about but are so pretty. I absolutely have always loved jeans but now I’m in my 60’s and figure has changed so my style is also changing.
Thank you so much for color!!! I love color, and most style videos are natural. I'm so happy I have found you. I'm now watching all your past videos. 😊 😃
Another beautiful video. A tip re your jeans: I also recently lost weight and took two pairs of jeans to my tailor to have them taken in. She did a beautiful job and it was much less expensive than buying new. Especially if you don't even wear your jeans that often. The style suits you, so why not?
Like you, I’m a person who loves to wear vibrant colors and have felt so awkward to wear when everyone else seems so blah… I’ve been uncomfortable to stand out in the crowd. I am so happy that I found your channel! You are helping me to build and feel more confident to go ahead and be myself! Thank you 😊 🎉
I hope you get the 500k followers. Your style is so unique and your contents so well-tought that you deserve it! And you don't need to buy a new pair if you don't need them. Also I love how you mix colors and prints. I'm learning a lot from you
Because Covid-19 now we can wear jeans,chinos and tennis shoes 👟 at work 🤫. My favorite combination in wearing blazer to complement my outfit. Love color too
Ok, I have my hands up in here 🖐🏻🤚🏻 I will draw inspiration from each outfit in this video - again. Your take on style is so fun and refreshing! I just resently bought a single pair of jeans. Not have been a fan of them either. But with these outfit combos I will certainly give them a try 👖 And thanks for also talking about the art of eye-catching shoes 👠 I have always wondered why they work so well for me. And now I realized it is because of my height. They put me in a better proportion 😊
I love color and taught Interior Design and wrote the curriculum for 10 years. In my undergrad years, I designed clothes. Most people here don't need an outfit to be completed by outwear, which is removed at their destination only in cool months. Your videos are very enjoyable.
Dear Ellena, I really appreciate the way you combine bold colours with neutrals. I am not a fan of only beige/grey/black either. I done times wear pink and people around give me compliments😊.. I will borrow some outfits according to today's ideas. Really, you are very professional. Regards from Germany 🇩🇪.
Hi Ellena, thank you for making this video! I have been and am a total pop of colour fan in my dressing, and whilst i have made mistakes and will most likely make more mistakes 🤭 those always open doors to fresh fun styling and I love that I came across your content, because we have a lot of things in common, only that i now have better understanding and you have broadened my understanding of my own style - that is all that matters - 🥰 I noticed that when the clothes i dress in are in harmony with myself... it does not matter what anybody says or thinks 😆 one just walks and moves differently and THAT is what makes it unique, owning it! ❤ the Burgundy and navy blue... are gorgeous, will be trying that one!! Sending lots of love from me to you ❤
Ellena I love your channel, so glad I found you! I love color! And it is so hard to get outfit inspiration when so many people use neutrals. Thank you so much for all your styling tips and color information I am hooked and having fun looking at my wardrobe in a whole new way. I’m in my early 50’s, size xs and very petite. Sometimes its tricky finding outfits that work for me. Keep the awesome videos coming, you are awesome! 😊💕👍🏼
Just wanted to say I loveeee colour and therefore loving your videos!!! Stumbled upon your channel while searching for colour after I got an eye-sore from endless stream of beige and "greige" outfits! And the endless line of influencers wearing the same sponsored pieces in the same colour schemes, thus creating the same outfits. Your videos are a treat!
I loved your styling. My favorite white shirt with scarf over. Its great tip for me, cause white is not my color. It’s too cool for me, so adding colorful scarf, not just gives some interesting detail, but also helps me to wear white😜 another one my favorite, navy knit top look Have a blessed day🙏❤️
✋ Raising my ✋ I am too a lover of vibrant colors. I have been enjoying your styling advices on how to incorporate them in a chic way. I tend to over do it
I love love love colour! You seem to be the only one not on the “greige” train on TH-cam! I love these denim looks! They really elevate the jeans, and gives a fresh perspective. I will take these looks and insert the colours that look best on me for a new perspective on jeans! I’d also love it if you could add some suggestions for styling floral prints - it might not be our personal style, but I’m sure I can’t be the only one? - along with your stripes and dots prints, that would be great! I struggle to figure out how to add them to achieve an elegant, but romantic, look. Adding florals in scarves is easy, but tops/skirts/dresses?
I love the denim on denim look; especially your jewelry. That ring is pretty. These are my favorite color combos. Your channel is growing fast! You will get to 100k soon.😉
Excellent ideas! I have definitely pulled away from jeans over the years because I felt the low rise styles didn’t fit me, then the skinny jeans were a big no for me. There are so many different styles of pants out there that are cuter and often time less expensive than jeans. I will also take a second look at the jean styles.
Thanks for this! I am retired and live in semi-rural Arizona. So I pretty much wear jeans year round. But I am pretty tired of jeans & graphic tees. This gives me some good ideas for jeans styling. Where I live dressed up is the clean jeans and a fitted Western shirt, so I want to break out of that mold, and not frighten people by wearing something too out there! Just subscribed so I'm absolutely going to follow along.
😍💖 Beautiful 💖💖💖💖💖 thank you so much for this beautiful ideas so so great🙏 Very happy that I found you here in this endless quiet luxury... stuff and I am 53 years and love colors like you all my life. Very happy looking forward to your next video with all the best wishes and many greetings from Bavaria 💖
A fab video Elena! Your outfits are all so different with big pops of colour and interesting details…far from the usual boring t shirt and jeans combinations 😍. Like you, I love colour and am really fed up with all the muted, neutral clothes in most shops right now. So dull! Yes, it’s hard being petite because I feel I can’t successfully use the colour sandwich rule in my styling. Most edgy, chunky or bright shoes drag the eye down and make me appear even shorter. I struggle with that styling issue a lot! 😆🤨
I have worn jeans my whole life. With T-shirts. Recently I’ve been dressing them up and I really like it. I don’t have many dress pant but don’t feel like I need them anymore
Very informative and though up in age (76 years and a classic dresser) on occasion I do wear jeans so found this video valuable. Thank you! On that note re outfit #2 with the patterned scarf I hope do not mind me adding; another option for styling is create arm holes and wear it similar to that of a 'shrug'. i.e.: At each end, tie the corners opposite one another together, slip on and adjust where necessary.
Hi Elena, how do shorter and older women can incorporate the new trends of wider pants/jeans and oversized blazers, shirts and sweaters? thank you for your wonderful videos.
Love this video and the numerous looks you can achieve with a simple pair of basic jeans. Your first outfit with the red asymmetric sweater looked stunning and something I will definitely be experimenting with. Thank you once again. I look forward to the next time xx
I like some of those pants made of suiting that you often wear. I have some in black, and I'd like to get some in other neutrals. They arent natural fabric and this is a departure for me. Appreciate the tips for jeans as they need to be styled to help them not feel too boring.

I love, love bright colours especially near my face. Your channel is one of the very few that embraces colour. That fuchsia sweater is simply stunning. I’m learning a lot from you. Analogous colours are my faves. Thanks for all you do to teach us about colour. Not into neutrals - even my house does not have any creams, beiges, taupes, browns and neither my husband or myself like these colours. We have black, white and grey as our neutrals and turquoise, teal and plum as accent colours with a tiny bit of lime green.
I say YES to vibrant colors! ❤
I was on my way to sell my burgundy shirt that I wasn't wearing and then I saw Your video and how beautiful burgundy and denim go together❤ Thank You for saving me from selling this shirt😁
Yes! Love the way strong colours are folded into the jeans looks. 😍
COLOR/COLOUR is my joy !
I love denim and have a similar pair of jeans. I'm not big on lots of colour but I loved this especially the blue and green outfit!
Photo in Portugal ❤️ the stones on the ground are unique. Very beautiful outfit ❤️🙏
I was practically born in Levi's, so denim is my go-to, with everything from velvet jackets to basic tees. But over the years I've found that nothing complements denim quite like orange. Thanks for your great content!
"Practically born in Levi's" 😂 me too - child of the 60/70s where it was all jeans & cheesecloth ❤
Your fashion outlook makes me so happy!! So tired of fashion influencers wearing only beige, gray, cream, and brown with the occasional navy or burgundy. I LOVE color and believe it can be just as elevated - just as you show here!! ❤
I love your videos you explain everything in detail easy to understand, thank you for your hard work. At 70 I still want to look good.
I love color, and especially colorful prints and florals. I've never been much for neutrals. I like jeans, but usually wear other pants much more often especially black, navy, royal blue.
I love the combination of blue and green, also with yellow and purple.
I'm so happy that you Show Outfits with vibrant colors. Love color 😊😊
I love how you show how to elevate basic jeans - my favorite haha. I live in a very hot climate and a lot of your advice is to pile on layers which is difficult to do when it's 115°F outside. Do you think you can help with a video for styles in warm weather that can keep one cool, covered, and fashionable? Ty❤
Bikini XD or big leaves!
Thank you for your lovely comment! I'll definitely work on creating a video about hot climate outfits, but closer to summer here in Portugal... Stay tuned and thank you again for your support!
I was thinking the same thing being in FL! Can’t wait to see the outfits
Would love to see your Mom in more outfits.
Great looks. I’m 71 and still love fashion!,
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I retired seven years ago, from teaching and wore blazers and skirts and slacks, and always liked a pop of red. I still like a pop of red! working from home of our small farm, means that I wear a lot of denim, which I love. I really appreciate you showing examples of how to dress up my denim looks. AND. I never miss your daily outfits
Who says working from home on a small farm can't be stylish? Denim is the perfect combo of comfort and fashion-forward!!! Thank you for your comment!!! ❤
I am fond of colour and prints this is one of the reasons I love your videos. Thanks 👍
Great ideas for styling jeans in different ways Ellena. I love navy and burgundy. I also love scarves so I’m so delighted you use them frequently in your styling. Thank you. Xx
I love the basics but with a pop of color! I’m like you! Always liked. Congrats in this great video.
Hi Ellena☺️ You are so humble. You respect the fashion choices of others while you stay true to your own fashion style. I love how you explain everything and we really learn a lot from you.❤
Love love love your videos and how you explain everything ♥️🙏🤗
Hallelujah! I love to wear color! Your videos are amazing and so helpful! Love you 😘
Colour all the way for me too! I appreciate your videos very much for how to style with colour. That fuchsia sweater is 🔥
I love your color combos a lot of which I don’t think about but are so pretty. I absolutely have always loved jeans but now I’m in my 60’s and figure has changed so my style is also changing.
Clothing swaps with friends have helped me step outside of my cozy box. This video will help be use the items I bring home from swaps. Thank you!
Thank you so much for color!!! I love color, and most style videos are natural. I'm so happy I have found you. I'm now watching all your past videos. 😊 😃
Another beautiful video. A tip re your jeans: I also recently lost weight and took two pairs of jeans to my tailor to have them taken in. She did a beautiful job and it was much less expensive than buying new. Especially if you don't even wear your jeans that often. The style suits you, so why not?
thank you, ellena, please more of these all-day-outfits.
Like you, I’m a person who loves to wear vibrant colors and have felt so awkward to wear when everyone else seems so blah… I’ve been uncomfortable to stand out in the crowd. I am so happy that I found your channel! You are helping me to build and feel more confident to go ahead and be myself! Thank you 😊 🎉
Thanks Ellena! Absolutely love your channel. Love colour, never change. ❤
Yes girl! I love color too! Prints also. Love your style. Unique!
I hope you get the 500k followers. Your style is so unique and your contents so well-tought that you deserve it! And you don't need to buy a new pair if you don't need them.
Also I love how you mix colors and prints. I'm learning a lot from you
Because Covid-19 now we can wear jeans,chinos and tennis shoes 👟 at work 🤫. My favorite combination in wearing blazer to complement my outfit. Love color too
Ok, I have my hands up in here 🖐🏻🤚🏻 I will draw inspiration from each outfit in this video - again. Your take on style is so fun and refreshing! I just resently bought a single pair of jeans. Not have been a fan of them either. But with these outfit combos I will certainly give them a try 👖 And thanks for also talking about the art of eye-catching shoes 👠 I have always wondered why they work so well for me. And now I realized it is because of my height. They put me in a better proportion 😊
I love color and taught Interior Design and wrote the curriculum for 10 years. In my undergrad years, I designed clothes. Most people here don't need an outfit to be completed by outwear, which is removed at their destination only in cool months. Your videos are very enjoyable.
Dear Ellena, I really appreciate the way you combine bold colours with neutrals. I am not a fan of only beige/grey/black either. I done times wear pink and people around give me compliments😊.. I will borrow some outfits according to today's ideas. Really, you are very professional. Regards from Germany 🇩🇪.
Hi Ellena, thank you for making this video! I have been and am a total pop of colour fan in my dressing, and whilst i have made mistakes and will most likely make more mistakes 🤭 those always open doors to fresh fun styling and I love that I came across your content, because we have a lot of things in common, only that i now have better understanding and you have broadened my understanding of my own style - that is all that matters - 🥰 I noticed that when the clothes i dress in are in harmony with myself... it does not matter what anybody says or thinks 😆 one just walks and moves differently and THAT is what makes it unique, owning it! ❤ the Burgundy and navy blue... are gorgeous, will be trying that one!! Sending lots of love from me to you ❤
Love your show! I would like to see more of your mother's style
Please don't ever become boring beige. I adore your saturated colours, they are so gorgeous
Love the way you use "vibrant colors"!
Ellena I love your channel, so glad I found you! I love color! And it is so hard to get outfit inspiration when so many people use neutrals. Thank you so much for all your styling tips and color information I am hooked and having fun looking at my wardrobe in a whole new way. I’m in my early 50’s, size xs and very petite. Sometimes its tricky finding outfits that work for me. Keep the awesome videos coming, you are awesome! 😊💕👍🏼
Just wanted to say I loveeee colour and therefore loving your videos!!! Stumbled upon your channel while searching for colour after I got an eye-sore from endless stream of beige and "greige" outfits! And the endless line of influencers wearing the same sponsored pieces in the same colour schemes, thus creating the same outfits. Your videos are a treat!
I loved your styling. My favorite white shirt with scarf over. Its great tip for me, cause white is not my color. It’s too cool for me, so adding colorful scarf, not just gives some interesting detail, but also helps me to wear white😜 another one my favorite, navy knit top look Have a blessed day🙏❤️
✋ Raising my ✋ I am too a lover of vibrant colors. I have been enjoying your styling advices on how to incorporate them in a chic way. I tend to over do it
I am a crazy color chameleon girl! I love bright colors and I’m learning more from you about balancing it in interesting ways with other colors.
Ellena could you be kind to make a video on necklaces and necklines
I love the bazar in fashion
Love your videos Elena
I’m full in bright colors to!
A very talented stylist 😊 I am sure your channel will grow exponentially…
For sure you're not alone : D I'm really into the edgy fun parts of finishing of my outfits. Thanks for your info. Indeed love the short intro's
I love love love colour! You seem to be the only one not on the “greige” train on TH-cam! I love these denim looks! They really elevate the jeans, and gives a fresh perspective. I will take these looks and insert the colours that look best on me for a new perspective on jeans!
I’d also love it if you could add some suggestions for styling floral prints - it might not be our personal style, but I’m sure I can’t be the only one? - along with your stripes and dots prints, that would be great! I struggle to figure out how to add them to achieve an elegant, but romantic, look. Adding florals in scarves is easy, but tops/skirts/dresses?
Hi I just stubbled on your video and subscribed! I love color! Thank you for showing how to use it with the color wheel!
I love the denim on denim look; especially your jewelry. That ring is pretty.
These are my favorite color combos.
Your channel is growing fast! You will get to 100k soon.😉
Love your creativity...I can follow and USE your approach 🎉
Pozdrowienia z Polski! Uwielbiam Twój kanał.
She's so good!
Excellent ideas! I have definitely pulled away from jeans over the years because I felt the low rise styles didn’t fit me, then the skinny jeans were a big no for me. There are so many different styles of pants out there that are cuter and often time less expensive than jeans. I will also take a second look at the jean styles.
Thanks for this! I am retired and live in semi-rural Arizona. So I pretty much wear jeans year round. But I am pretty tired of jeans & graphic tees. This gives me some good ideas for jeans styling. Where I live dressed up is the clean jeans and a fitted Western shirt, so I want to break out of that mold, and not frighten people by wearing something too out there! Just subscribed so I'm absolutely going to follow along.
My hand is raised! Yummy colors and whimsy make my day.
😍💖 Beautiful 💖💖💖💖💖 thank you so much for this beautiful ideas so so great🙏 Very happy that I found you here in this endless quiet luxury... stuff and I am 53 years and love colors like you all my life. Very happy looking forward to your next video with all the best wishes and many greetings from Bavaria 💖
I loved outfits 2 and 8. That scarf is do beautiful.
A fab video Elena! Your outfits are all so different with big pops of colour and interesting details…far from the usual boring t shirt and jeans combinations 😍. Like you, I love colour and am really fed up with all the muted, neutral clothes in most shops right now. So dull! Yes, it’s hard being petite because I feel I can’t successfully use the colour sandwich rule in my styling. Most edgy, chunky or bright shoes drag the eye down and make me appear even shorter. I struggle with that styling issue a lot! 😆🤨
You really are a lover of colours, magnificent!
I love your style, you’re the best by far!!!
Raising both hands for COLOR!!!
I think r one of tops on TH-cam ❤
Big YES just for the colors 🥰
I have worn jeans my whole life. With T-shirts. Recently I’ve been dressing them up and I really like it. I don’t have many dress pant but don’t feel like I need them anymore
I, too, love color! Just discovered you and love your channel!
Very informative and though up in age (76 years and a classic dresser) on occasion I do wear jeans so found this video valuable. Thank you! On that note re outfit #2 with the patterned scarf I hope do not mind me adding; another option for styling is create arm holes and wear it similar to that of a 'shrug'. i.e.: At each end, tie the corners opposite one another together, slip on and adjust where necessary.
Hi Elena, how do shorter and older women can incorporate the new trends of wider pants/jeans and oversized blazers, shirts and sweaters?
thank you for your wonderful videos.
Love your color combos!!
I love color. Your color combinations have really inspired me. Another great video.
Love this video and the numerous looks you can achieve with a simple pair of basic jeans. Your first outfit with the red asymmetric sweater looked stunning and something I will definitely be experimenting with. Thank you once again. I look forward to the next time xx
I always dress in neutral colors and I follow you exactly to learn how to introduce color into my outfits! 😅
Great outfits and I liked the fit of your jeans.
Excellent! You knocked it out of the park as usual 💚
Love your channel! You inspire me to use color more!
I love short introductions, so thank you. Great video!
Ciao, i follow you so long, don't even remember when i started just because i love colours as you, your English is so good, brava. Ciao😘
Thank you for your videos. I instantly subscribed. You have the best advice ever and look forward to watching them all!
Fantastic as usual Ellena, it’s colour all the way for me! X
Love the video. Would be great if you could do a video on how to use & wear silk scarf.
Hi from South Africa 😊 I love your videos because I also love wearing colour and prints ❤ I've taken your quiz twice but haven't received the email 😢
I love vibrant colors, too ❤
I am! 🙌 I am a fan of vibrant colors ❤ Great video as usual
This was really fun. I love color and this gave me a few combos I hadn’t thought about style wise. Keep up the wonderful work!
Thanks Ellena, jeans are not my favorite either but these are great inspiration for when I do wear them.
Fresh video, fresh ideas! I also lime a lot your daily outfits! Thank you Ellena.
I like some of those pants made of suiting that you often wear. I have some in black, and I'd like to get some in other neutrals. They arent natural fabric and this is a departure for me.
Appreciate the tips for jeans as they need to be styled to help them not feel too boring.
Dear Ellena,
Fantastic video! Many thanks for sharing all the information related and for your privilege time. You're the BEST! 💕👍😘
Love all your combinations. Fabulous! Must go take your quiz now. ❤
