MY NEW POSTING DAY FOR BOTH CHANNELS (this one and A SMALL WARDROBE) IS WEDNESDAY! I cannot tell you what a difference this small change has made already! Yes, there were some withdrawals last weekend, but this week I'm already in the flow of the new schedule. It's already feeling so much better because in the past I would work so hard all week, and then have to until the weekend for the results of that work. Now I actually get to see the results of my work while I'm in work mode! ♥
I'm old. I'm retired. It took awhile for me to stop buying clothes for a life I no longer had. At this point I want mostly comfort, casual and active. I've managed to have all that in my closet while have "a small wardrobe". Thanks for all your hard work. Love both channels.
I am in the same boat. I have to consciously not put dresses, suits, dressy shirts (any shirts except flannel), heeled shoes, leather bags, makeup in my liked items when I shop on line. There’s really nothing I need because I have every comfortable or active clothing and shoes for every weather and sports in my closet :)
i too am in the retired boat. i'm wearing casual, active comfortable clothes, but tbh, i miss my edgy black-combat boot style. it doesn't fit my current climate (i moved from chicago to coastal carolina) and that former style doesn't make sense here. but i feel frumpy. any helpful tips? i hate my southern style... it just doesn't suit me...
I'm in my seventies and I've found that as each new decade starts I become dissatisfied with my style and make changes either to my hair, my colours or my overall mood. This keeps me currant and still very interested in fashion. Love your new look!
I’ve followed your style journey for a few years now and funny enough I feel we’ve been on par with the style ebbs and flows - large wardrobe of nothing, to minimalist, to pops of fancy 😂 Your approach of “advice” starts with being yourself and be mindful, which has definitely helped me not go with the trends as such. Thanks for keeping me company throughout my many wardrobe declutters!! Loving the ride with you!
This video is so helpful! Love the concept of applying moods to my style. Your hair looks fab and I love love love your new style direction, so chic and glam.
OMGosh…your outfit at 3:35 is fabulous. This purse is so stylish ! Love your new channel name and rebranding. Such great advice to get rid of items that distract. I just decluttered 15 items (out of 60) that were not comfortable or complementary to my shape. So freeing ! Thank you for sharing all your lessons and wisdom. Watching your style evolution over the past year has been truly inspiring ❤️
Black with your blonde hair looks absolutely gorgeous! You do carry black great! Oh I hate uncomfortable shoes and clothes too. I guess I'm kind of an old hipster. I mostly use black. Love your new little bag! So cute! Thanks for sharing inspiration and tips on style! I'm always pretty lost when it comes to style. Lol! Love 💗♥️
I'm classic and chic, sticking to clothes that suit my body shape and express my personality. There are times of course where I will suddenly be a rock chick for a day or be a Paris gal!
Have become addicted to leggings+ large compfy sweaters with cool boots. I need to elevate to look polished for attendance at jazz vespers, Church and a newbie philanthropist. So looking foward to your videos for big help.🍃🍃🍃
LOVE the developments of late. As you started your bit to camera, the look, the eyes, everything, it felt like Atomic by Blondie just dropped into the mix... you remember how that song starts... it felt like that :) Getting Debbie Harry energy a little too, although of course your style is unmistakably yours
Love the blonde - you look so much younger ! 👱♀️ Love your new handbag too. great advice 👏🏼❤ wishing you success for this channel 🙏😘🤩 btw I’m 64 today 🎉😪 coming to terms with getting old 😂
Hi Patricia. Checked out my closet and to my surprise discovered I have 3 colors. Black, blue and green. It was a light bulb moment. Moving forward I feel like I will definitely be making less mistakes. Thank you, thank you ! Yesterday I purchased 2 spring tops, 1 navy blue, 1 midrange green. I am confident these tops will be versatile, comfortable and complementary to my shape. I returned a purple cashmere sweater when I realized the color was really jarring. It’s been a process, I have had to be patient with myself and have learned the most from your channel.
It took me so long and way too much purchasing & purging (ack) but I am very content with my style after 5+ decades (whew). For me, it means having 2 closets - one with day-to-day wear (simple but edgy/punk-ish, and practical/comfortable - "Can I climb a tree in it?") (It doesn't matter that I don't do that regularly, I need to feel that I am ABLE to lol) and one with occasion wear (Indian clothes for family gatherings w/my inlaws, vintage 60s pieces, & some scifi convention outfits 😄#dontjudge). LOVE your style, and as always, your thoughtful analysis which has helped me stop the buy/purge cycle. You love FAB and more importantly seem to be happy and thriving!! :) :) :)
I'm enjoying your new, more sophisticated, look, Patricia. Mmm 'moods' - I feel I have quite a few. (I probably could be dressing a local theatre troupe!) However I like the ideas & techniques you suggest to narrow things down.
Same! Lots of moods for me. I know my general moods and what I feel like expressing most often, so I have sort of 'capsules' of moods. Earthy, 90s, put together...
New subscriber here! I love your advice! Please do a video on colors, I have such a colorful wardrobe. I would love to hear your take on the color wheel and styling bright colors.
It's so hard for me as my life is two extremes... I'm a massage therapist, so literally my uniform is yoga pants, slippers and an ugly work shirt. Then, when I go on vacation I over dress because I never get to dress in my day to day life.
I think you look so much better in light hair! The dark although it may be natural didn’t match your completion. I’m seeing a lot of comments on here about it looking dry (it’s the ash tone) you should put some sandy blonde in it. ❤
I don't think it's the tone. She needs to condition because it's frizzy and dull, not smooth and shiny. She probably needs to clarify, as well, because hard water makes your hair look like that. I have to clarify at least every third time that I shampoo.
Nobody asked for a grammar lesson. But as you are obviously invested in this matter, you might like to do some research... and you will find that 'gift' has been used as a verb for around 400 years. That will teach you.
Hair is art, some people like to change things up. It’s like ice cream: Eating the same favorite flavor all the time prevents you from enjoying other flavors.
It’s hard to focus on your great ideas, because your light warm blonde is so different than the cool dark black. I do prefer your natural hair color on your skin.

I’m experiencing similar with the switch from corporate office life to completely remote / work from home. It’s been hard!

I am not even old and I think the same.

any helpful tips?
i hate my southern style... it just doesn't suit me...
to whomever liked my reply: what have you tried? maybe we can put our heads together?
Old? Old to me is 70 ish and above haha and i would not call it old -more like wise. ❤

I see you're embracing black again. I love black. I try to wear color but always default to black, especially now that my hair is white.
The best video I watched lately about fashion. Congratulations!
PS. I love your silk skirt. Is already in my shopping list 😃
I'm enjoying your new, more sophisticated, look, Patricia. Mmm 'moods' - I feel I have quite a few. (I probably could be dressing a local theatre troupe!) However I like the ideas & techniques you suggest to narrow things down.

Great tips Patricia, thank you. I love feminine, comfortable, classic styles. You look very pretty, very Bardot ❤
New subscriber here! I love your advice! Please do a video on colors, I have such a colorful wardrobe. I would love to hear your take on the color wheel and styling bright colors.
I’m new here I’m glad I found your channel. Can you please do a video on each different mood. Personally I am confused on how to dress.
This was very helpful. Keep up the good work☺️
So encouraging, Patricia. I am so out of control. I need to lose the 'some day ' attitude. I have to wise up.
I like an edgy look for a 51 yr old woman that likes black, combat boots and maybe throw in a neutral pink or gray🖤
It's so hard for me as my life is two extremes... I'm a massage therapist, so literally my uniform is yoga pants, slippers and an ugly work shirt. Then, when I go on vacation I over dress because I never get to dress in my day to day life.
Love your new style 💕
Great video! I need to try the wardrobe tracking too.
But what do I do when I’m bored of my current wardrobe and trying to avoid shopping?
Thank you, great video and love the blonde on you!
Thank you, Cindy! ♥️
Love the new branding!!!!❤
which turtleneck are you wearing?
👋🏼 can you share the gray turtleneck details pretty please?
Love the blonde.
Thank you! ♥️
Great tips ❤
I find it sad that people are so distracted by and offering comments on her hair that they are missing the content of the video.
What skirt are you wearing?? I will buy
subbed !
Thank you for the sub! ♥️
Some sound advice here.
Simplify and practice as style tips: much Yes. And your hair like that. Is. So. Glam.
You look like Tracy Ullman and Amy Sedaris’ love child :)
Where are the gold sandals on the thumbnail?
Then and WOW✨

@@edennis8578 I get what your saying but the color is too harsh for her skin. I still think changing the tone will make her more balanced.
Love your content! Gifted isn't a word in the context used several times on the video. You are gifted, your items aren't! ;-)
Nobody asked for a grammar lesson. But as you are obviously invested in this matter, you might like to do some research... and you will find that 'gift' has been used as a verb for around 400 years. That will teach you.
gotta disagree! language is used to confer meaning, if most people understood her meaning, then language completed! ;P
❤❤
Love your fashion style and your videos are sooooo attractive. Our fashion brand want to collab with you and already sent you Email
*PromoSM* 🤦
😮 What happened to your hair?
th-cam.com/video/Mh6yayzPGOE/w-d-xo.html
Video from A Small Wardrobe explaining
Seems a rather rude question
She had highlights 😊
Wow what happened to your hair, your dark hair looked so beautiful, it made your big beautiful eyes stand out.
Hair is art, some people like to change things up. It’s like ice cream: Eating the same favorite flavor all the time prevents you from enjoying other flavors.
I love how she looks with blonde hair but it looks dry 🥲
@@SkySpiral8it s just hair
It’s hard to focus on your great ideas, because your light warm blonde is so different than the cool dark black. I do prefer your natural hair color on your skin.
@@DevinaHeriyanto Indeed, she needs a treatment and a nice hair cut....anyways she looks so good
Please fix your sound.
