Yes! More tips about layering coats with skirts, pants and dresses. I have especially trouble with layering a longer layer underneath a coat. More videos about that! Please!
Love layering an open button up, like a denim shirt or chambray shirt under a blazer. Feels comfortable, with a sort of corporate vibe without being stiff or buttoned up.
🤍Love the combo outside the office. The formality of the blazer contrasted w/the casualness of the shirt adds a 🆒️ playful punch. A jeans, chambray, or even a patterned shirt (like a polka dot, checkerboard, or buffalo check) will instantly dial down ⬇️ the formal fussiness of classic corporate wear. 🤓Like a men's slim cut button down shirt. This style reduces the ➡️boxy bulk⬅️ of an ordinary button up & neatly keeps the collar under control too. Women's shirt sleeves are frequently short on my limbs, but the men's sleeves are always longer. In both cases, I end up cuffing them under or over the blazer sleeve for extra visual interest. Usually keep the shirt unbuttoned over a ribbed razorback tank that matches the trouser & ankle boots when it chills out. If I feel more feminine, I'll knot the shirt open loose over a silky camisole that matches a skirt, tights, & taller boots instead. 😊My favorite is a black & white tweed blazer over an all black base. A blue denim shirt pulls a tiny blue weave on this jacket out. Plus, a red scarf🧣 will bring out the petite dots of red weave too. 😉There's always topping it off w/a hat too. A knit cap when feeling more boyishly grunge. A beret when feeling more feminine. A coordinating🧢 cap when feeling sassy. A wool trilby hat, mittens🧤 & loafers when wanting a retro vibe. 💚Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)
It's incredibly rare for me to click on videos, despite the content, just because I enjoy the TH-camr. But it always works that way for your video- you have a calm about you, but equally important, you are always coming up with news ideas that I can easily apply or try out, and we have similar styles, but you have a bit more edge and playfulness that helps me break out of my comfort zone! Although I have to say, I love seeing another girl as obsessed with wearing button downs like me. :)
As a fellow Canadian, I have worn a lightweight denim jacket under a blazer for many years. A denim shirt works just as well, and if the blazer is a textured wool or even better, a tweed, the duo is magic 🤩
Thanks I just layered a cute older fitted fleece vest with a newer oversized button up shirt today and it looked great together. You are an inspiration 😊.
Thank you for sharing something new to do with the old stuff in my closet. I love your slow fashion vibe Alyssa. Sending love n best wishes from Tennessee.
I've been doing the double-jacket/layer one over the other look (usually my denim jacket under my wool coat) since the 90's! Who knew I was so fashion forward 🤣!!??!!
I loved this video and especially the corset and button up layering, as well as one of my favorites of the season, belting outerwear!! 😍😍 happy autumn 🍂
Great video as always. As a child of the 50s and 60s I saw collars layered over lapels and did that for a long time. Now I mix it up according to my mood. As I lose weight, I am layering more. PS I am enjoying your course very much. . It is a great review of the lessons that you have taught me over the years., If someone is new to your channel, they should purchase the course and catch up on all of your amazing knowledge . By the way, you did not charge enough. This course is priceless.
Such great tips, Alyssa! I especially loved accessories… Who knew how creative you can be with socks, belts, and jewelry. Thanks for this seasonal gem! 😉❤️
Hey Alyssa! I'm here warching as always hehe but i have a question about layering necklaces! Whenever i do this they just get tangled into a mess any tips? Btw the other day i was catching up on videos and accordion boy came up I'm pretty sure i lost my mind i was so happy to see him! Lol
Also, I just layered necklaces for the first time in my life today!! I was about to Google how to layer jewelry but decided just to try. I inadvertently came up with a pair of necklaces similar to what you wear in this video (one thicker chain and one pendant) but in silver 🥰 Mixing metals would require much courage from me! But a tip I remember from one of Justine Leconte's older videos - rose gold goes well with both yellow gold and silver, so it may be an easier way to start 😊 I personally don't have anything in rose gold, but maybe that helps someone else who is also in the mood for experiments today ❤
Unless I have on high waisted jeans, I like wearing my belts a little lower than my natural waistline because I am short and short waisted. Not as big at the hips and thighs. Enjoyed this video.
Love these tips, thank you ❤ I've been thinking about layering my denim jacket on top of a sweater for too long and now the weather where I live is too cold for that 🥶 Luckily, now I get to layer my denim jacket UNDER a coat 😂 Note to myself to try it sooner while it's not too cold for that either 😂 P.S. to me silk with faux fur is a much more dramatic combination than sheer + leather, but will try it nevertheless! Thinking of an occasion where it would be appropriate to wear, maybe a theater night?
I LOVE the look of layers but rarely can wear them because I run HOT. Polyester is esp a problem for me (cotton and linen items are increasing in my closet), i can't wear ANY kind of wool for some reason (bummer). The best i can do is wear a sleeveless vest/top and add a thin cardigan so i can level my cool/hot tipping point. 😞😁
Monica Vinader has that Baroque Pearl charm for $138. They also have some that are $98. If that's out of your budget. Then etsy has them as cheap as $10. But the $10 ones the findings won't be made from gold or gold vermeil. All depends on what quality you're willing to pay for.
Thank you. I think this will help me for my trip to Europe this winter. We'll be in Southern Spain to Madrid,Northern Italy, France, with just a carry-on. is going to be a challenge a month with only a carry on is not my normal
😊If you're traveling in Winter in the same hemisphere, depending upon the local temps🌡, wear some of those extra layers on the plane✈️. Layer your coat, blazer, button up over/under a jumper, maybe even a tee or tank under all that. Tie a light cardi around your neck as a scarf. Wear your bulky boots vs packing them. 😬That's what I'd do bcos I'd want maximum amount of choices upon arrival🛅. A contingency plan for a place where the weather could change throughout the day. 🧳Happy trails to you! Hope you have a fabulous trip! 💚Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)
Loved this video! Would love to belt jackets or other things but I am a little short-waisted and I wonder what you would recommend? Should I try a narrower belt or just not do it at all?
😊Me too. A thin belt works best for us over a blazer. I like using a men's leather braided belt bcos it allows me to cinch it in exactly where I need it every time w/o having to add a new hole. Next, I use a coordinating or clear elastic hair band as a loop to corral any of the extra flap. It keeps things nice & neat. Men's belts are frequently made of better quality. Can often find belts of different waist sizes too. In my experience, women's belts frequently come in one size fits all. Plus, they don't last as long & can be more expensive. ⏳️ As an hourglass, my belts are a workhorse. They need to be sturdy bcos they take a lot of abuse😖. With button ups & trousers, I usually have to size up to fit breast/hips w/o any stress. In both cases, that typically leaves a lot of volume I need to reduce at the waist. 💚Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)
@@virginiav.1172 😊My pleasure. Hope they help you. 🤓Someone else in our similar situation here also suggested we wear the belt slightly lower⬇️ than our natural waist over a blazer. It will 100% create some much needed visual space ↕️ on our torso, esp. if you're larger breasted like myself👍. 😉That trick is MOST visually flattering on those w/a short torso & longer legs. If your torso is about the same length of your legs (as mine) or your torso is longer than your legs〰️these body configurations already seem a bit visually top heavy. Therefore lowering your belt could visually stunt the height of your legs even further😂. 🤔Frankly, it's not something I do a lot of, but I will purposely lower my belt on occasion. Although I do prefer to tie a high waisted drawstring trouser slightly lower (on the top of my hipbone vs natural waist). Otherwise, it can look like my breasts are resting on my waist🤣. 💚Bridget☘️
@@elliotm1608lots of us do, especially with a wool or tweed blazer. Instead of a denim jacket, a denim shirt works well. I’ve worn the denim and blazer duo for 3 decades
Yes!

Love the new layered cut with bangs. Easily reflects your “undone” word when needed.

Silk and faux fur and maybe velvet = Anita Palenberg !

Luv your necklaces 😍
Links please ☺️
Your cream sweater with stripes is a classic. Where did you purchase this beautiful sweater?
The sweater is from Sezane.
The like button not working.🤔
The corset is horrible.So sorry.
I'm with you there. Nothing personal to Alyssa. Just not my jam
Also the blazer over the denim jacket, who would dress like that in reality😅; couldn’t digest it either.

Love the corset but it's not a look that everyone can pull off...
