Just watched the Ralph Lauren spring 2025 fashion show. Fabulous! Wearable, realistic clothing for real people. I am loving these classic shapes and colors especially the equestrian look.
Black dress, animal print heels and a red purse, can look really sexy. I’m not a big animal print fan but the smallest addition like stilettos or kitten heels can look great!
Thank you, Elana for another great informative video. I had a color analysis done. I am a Dark Autumn. Total game changer and it fixed my wardrobe. I would love to see your color analysis results. I am thinking you are a Dark Winter. The Dark Winter and Dark Autumn seasons share colors too since some cross over. I used Color Guru. Their names are a little different and they gave me “Twight Autumn” colors which is equivalent to Dark Autumn. I’d love to see what your results are. ❤😊
I love that other people commenting on this video also think that Elana is a Dark Winter! :) She doesn’t even need a color analysis because we all agree and we are probably correct. lol
I highly recommend Merriam Style here on youtube for color analysis. I am cool olive and always knew I was different. I could never pull off golden bronze makeup. Now I know why! Life changing.❤
I had my 'colours' done in the 1980's and I still love my 'Winter' category colours. It is all about how your face becomes healthier looking when you wear your colours next to your face. Also makes everything in your wardrobe coordinate more easily , and makes shopping less time consuming, since you just walk past colours that aren't in your category. I totally recommend having your colours done. Tie your hair back, no make up, sit by a bright window and put something white up close to your face , then try it with something tan or beige. Do you see a difference ? Olive green vs emerald green etc. But you probably know all this already. Lots of info out there. I shop some cool Summer category colours. Black of course is a staple in everyone's closet ... but not next to your face. Shopping this past past year has been so uninspiring..beige, cream, grey, black, tan more beige :-(( Colour is fun ! Thanks for your videos and petite tips.
I will definitely look into the "marine" trend, as well as the cable knit sweaters, add some colours to my spring outfits. If I go for animal prints it will be snake print for shoes and belt. I hate leopard or tiger prints. Many thanks again for your good advice and suggestions.
I think one item of animal print worn at any one time is ok. I would wear perhaps the leopard print belt with a plain black outfit. Other than that I get overwhelmed when I see the full animal print trousers or dresses. Sometimes I see a slinky leopard print skirt that looks great on the right body !
I already have plenty of leopard print items, all high-quality classic items, and I don’t like zebra or tiger prints - their scale is always too big on petite, and the prints too dramatic, for petite, quiet-style me. I like snake prints and cheetah prints better and might buy more of those. I already bought a snake-print belt and sandals last summer, in the black/gray/white colorway, those golden, yellowish browns don’t suit my Soft Summer coloring. Animal prints can very easily look cheap. I’ve been looking everywhere for a silk snake-print skirt, but finally got a rayon one from Mango (at least it’s a breathable fabric, unlike polyester). The print looked ok on the website image, but looks super-cheap in the full-scale, actual item, so I’m still looking.
I loved my Color Me Beautiful analysis, it was well worth it and I recommend it highly. I’m sure I made the cost back in a year or two because it stopped me buying clothes that didn’t look good on me, but I didn’t really understand quite why they didn’t work well. That said, I would use it only as a general guideline, and not follow it too strictly if something doesn’t feel or look right after trying your recommendations for a while. I ended up dropping two recommended hues, grays and purples*, and switched from the recommended silver jewelry-only, to both silver and gold-color jewelry. Now I love my adjusted, personalized color palette and I stick to it. *I just felt too drab in grays and found purples really difficult to style. You can experiment with new colors with inexpensive tops like t-shirts, or with scarves, to see how you like them before investing more into them.
I am about 5'0 weight is 125 lb. I have a question, where is a good place to buy a winter wool blend coat? Thank you for the videos I love them. btw I'm 71 soon to be 72. 😀
Can’t wait to see you trying these new trends. Would you be able to review the coats from Quince? And yes color analysis is so much fun. I changed my spending habits because of it. ❤
I thought last year’s trends were the best since the late 90s and many of 2025’s look great, too. I think this is because many of these trends are based on timeless, elegant classics. Finally, designers seemed to have stopped, or at least paused, offering only freakish, weirdo, costumey “looks” that no sane person would touch with a barge pole. Remember the dress with the inflated kiddie pool attached, encircling the dress, for example? It’s designer offerings like that that make me not want to buy anything new, ever! Really, there is nothing new under the sun, so why not give us fresh, updated, classic-based styles like 2024’s every season? You designers, why not finally give up on the panty under the transparent skirt thing? We didn’t buy it the last twenty times you tried it and we never will!
@@CynthiaMignella we all agree so she must be a Dark Winter. We have already analyzed her colors since we have been watching her videos for so long, we know what they are. :D
I have never liked animal print(leopard, tiger and zebra) I find it looks cheap and tacky. I can handle a snakeprint if used sparingly ie belt, shoes or bag.

I like animal print when done tastefully. It's fun and funky.
Thank you for all your great wardrobe ideas and doing all the research for us thank you Elana.
Always love leopard print…always.😊
I love animal print in small doses. The Quince animal print silk skirt is beautiful. And don’t mind a leopard scarf.
Black dress, animal print heels and a red purse, can look really sexy. I’m not a big animal print fan but the smallest addition like stilettos or kitten heels can look great!
Absolutely ❤
I did a color analysis done and I ended up in a completely different season - I now wear bright red and get so many compliments! It's worth it!
Just bought leopard pants at 50. Love it.

Agreed. She looks like Winter.
I think you need more color and fun! I’m over dark and beige neutrals

Check out quince!! I just purchased one of their wool coats and it’s beautiful!!!! This is the one I love: rstyle.me/+8MAInjUs8C47C1rwLWPN9w

Animal print looks cheap to me.
Nicely done getting fit after baby so quickly 😊
I hate animal print too, I can’t ever get into it.
I love that people are experimenting more with colors.
I'm in no way a professional, but my guess is that you are in the Winter family !
🥰
I think you are right!!
@@ElanaKindaI agree! Dark Winter. 😊
@@danielled5883yes!!
I was going to say the same thing :)

Have never been a fan of animal print and never will lol 🤷♀

Animal print is not for me either but, I like it on others.
🤩💛
You are still too young to dress so boringly...❤
