Im from Poland. Once I was visiting my parents who live in a small town. My mama said: “ Let’s go to grocery store grab a few things” “ok” I said “let’s go”. My mom give me look and said “Can you change before we go”… I’m so used to causal US I forgot you have to dress up to go get groceries. I miss it sometime
Omgosh lol my husband is from Hungary and he asked why everyone walks around in pajamas here ( US ) 🤣 he said women (and men) don’t go anywhere without being dressed well, makeup and hair done.
@@saraantonelli3586To feel shame is to be dead while being still alive. A lot of women make a choice to wear leisure wear. It works for waking a dog, taking kids to gymnastics, as well as feeling comfortable at home. To judge that is about being judgemental and ableist. Women already have lots of expectations placed on them, and they prioritize doing stuff over taking the time to look nice for others. Besides look at what people do in the US. Their achievements and fearlessness make them take risks and do awesome stuff, along with not caring what others think about how they dress
It's sad when people are so judgemental and shame people they supposedly love. I get that people dress up, but most people can't afford quality things. So is wearing a dress made out of thin fabric and a cheap pattern better than leisurewear? Perhaps not always. Is it better for posture and feet and comfort to wear leisurewear while walking a dog or taking kids to gymnastics. Or is it better to look stiff and uncomfortable. American women look put together in most jobs. Teachers, consultants, and many other people look put together and yet they also own a no make up and leisurewear whenever they want.
At about 12 minutes or so, Alyssa seems to apologize for how similar for the ‘repetition’ of the formula, but that is a big part of why we come back! To see the tiny tweaks that give us the frisson of the new from our tried & true! (Rhyme unintentional but I’m not mad at it either🙃)
I love your vibrant personality. The ecru trousers are so elegant. It would be great to see more ways to style them from dressy to casual. You look wonderful in the short dress and skirt. You have the legs and your youth to pull it off.
I second this comment. Thanks for posting it. I'd love to see the ecru trousers paired with many other items to see just how versatile this wide legged trouser can be.
Just came back from Italy yesterday. The style in Rome and Florence surprised me. Beautiful fabrics, tailoring, not too over sized, great sunglasses, minimal jewelry and a fabulous bag!!!!! And then came sneakers😅. The Italian women put in effort to their styling and then had sneakers on. But after walking 15,000 steps a day on cobble stone streets, I totally get it!!!! Side note…saw so many loafers too! Classic ones with that Gucci horse bit look.
I took so many screenshots! Of course I don’t have these exact pieces, but I was thinking, oh that would work with X and that would work with Y! Thanks for another inspiring video
I truly appreciate the concept of your video, comparing and contrasting fashion in 2 locations. I love to travel and immerse myself in the people and culture of where I am visiting. This video is really making me think divergently about clothing choices and how my travels have impacted my style.
I love the way you take pieces that we easily have and style them in new ways. I'm hardly buying clothes these days and am fully embracing pre-loved! I have Canadian relatives and their style is much more laid back than where I am in Scotland.
The comparison of your two cultural identities with the same pieces was AMAZING. I can really relate as 🇬🇧 🇨🇦. You've boosted my self confidence to embrace my unique take on my style for fall 2023. (New subscriber 💟)
Great video, Alyssa! You are having fun here, and the joy you showed when you put together an outfit that you were pleased with was just so fun. I know the feeling - when it all comes together beautifully. Not always, but it's great when it does.
Great video, very original ;) .. definitely gave me some food for thought .. boy how much I love italian style ... I've spent much time in Florence and always appreciated the 'effortless chic' way that people dress and care for how they present themselves to the world..wish that was more of a standard here in Toronto ;) My Polish mother NEVER went out without considering how she presented herself !
I’ve really enjoyed this video. I’m British but I live in Madrid and have just been on a hiking holiday to Lake Como in Italy. I definitely vibed the sharper way of dressing in Italy. UK dressing seems really casual now, and Madrid is somewhere in between. My wardrobe is a bit chaotic!!
I just love how you explain texture, proportion, silhouette... always inspired by your videos and find something incredible (and new to me) to style from my own closet. Thank you from thunder bay, ontario...🇨🇦
I think this really shows how important the details are. The first outfit looks sooo Italian! I love the flamboyance and juxtaposition of italian style. Perfetto.
Such an interesting concept of straddling two cultures!!! I do find people dress more casually here, I’m from Switzerland and as much as I adapted wardrobe ideas when we moved here, I’ve also had to do the same with food… it took time but blending the two taught me so much :)
What a good video concept! I never really put thought into it (I just did it), but i am Canadian with German parents and relatives in Germany; I too have noticed i dress differently in the presence of my parents or when i'm in Germany/Europe (more polished) vs. Canada (very casual here). Thanks, that was fun. 😄
This video is so much fun! I love the concept. All the outfits are amazing, but the Canadian ones resonate with me the most. Now, here's the problem: I'm italian. 😅
Alyssa-you should always show off your legs and embrace the bomb shell look! Given that you are working with Sezane and adding new items to your wardrobe, how do you feel about acquiring new (sustainable) pieces? Are you replacing items or enjoying these beautiful additions?
OMG! I need to replicate some of those looks. Very nice, casual, classic, but subtly sexy. I think we tend to dress too casual here in Toronto. I wish we would all just step it up a notch. your interpretations of the two cultures are great. Thanks Alyssa.
I absolutely cannot decide which side I love more. I love Canadian & Italian side. And I would wear them both, even I am 100% European. By the way...looove your cowboy boots.❤
I appreciate the contrast of the outfit in Canada or in Italy, and your setup of how you're moving through the world when you're in each place. I'm wondering if some of the difference is that you're in your everyday life versus more of a vacation vibe, as well as Italian style versus Canadian style.
❤you Made my morning! I’m always so happy to see a new video from you and you NAILED this one!!!❤we are having a mini heatwave here in San Diego but my mind and heart are set on my winter trip to Italy! Seeing all the amazing outfit ideas for cooler weather was just what I needed! And BTW you work hard to get those amazing legs -of course you should show them off!!!😊
I just wanted to take a moment and tell you that I have taken your advise on two companies and they have both been a win! I ordered a shirt from POMP, and a belt from Brave leather. I am thrilled with both and will be ordering more. I obviously goofed a little on the belt because it’s a little big, but that’s okay🤪 Thanks for all your great content, and for making me make my existing wardrobe even more exciting! Keep up the good work. Huge fan here❤️
I really loved all of the outfits except for the one with the sweater dress and cowboy boots, only because the color combination didn't convince me (I think it might be that the boots are a warmer tone and the dress is cool), but the overall idea is good. I love that you repeat outfit formulas and show that it can look completely different
Great video Allyssa. I especially loved the grey sweater,jeans and trench coat the best. But I also loved the leather skirt, white shirt,boots and aqua sweater.
Thanks for the inspiration. I will make them my own! I’m already pulling items from my closet. I always enjoy seeing pieces from Sezanne -classic but not boring. I live in the Pacific Northwest so it doesn’t get really cold but it does RAIN 🙄 so I do need great outerwear and am looking for a longer coat….
It's really interesting how the places we stay influence our way to get dressed. In summer I always stay for some weeks in a house on a lake. I always bring lots of my cloths I generally wear here in my city in Austria. But at the end I only wear my real casual peaces an feel super comfortable in them. I would feel so oversressed wearin more polished cloths there. So we are so influenced by our circumstances! But that's also a very interesting fact about fashion, that it could create so different vibes and moods. It's really fun to play around with different looks and styles!
The last outfit would also look great with the cowboy boots and a trench to look very tonal, and also textural. Loved this video, it really helps to see how you style each outfit and also understand the story and context behind your choices. Thank you for sharing!
I’m originally from South Africa and the transition to casual Canada, and even more so in BC, is still difficult. I’m trying to find a happy medium but it’s tricky!
I really like the concept of this video. I find myself doing this unconsciously when I am packing for a trip, or just trying to embody the vibes of celebs/media from different countries. I definitely utilized this tactic of styling things I already had in a more "European" way when we went overseas last summer. Even my husband commented how we didn't stick out like tourists. Maybe you could do a similar video when considering packing, and how to blend in to the place you are travelling to?
Loved this! Love the balance of taking style to other locals and getting to play dress up related to the vibe of the place rubbing off and influencing personal style. And to add a comment related to recent podcast on sponsored content... everything you create is so uniquely you that sponsored content feels just like non sponsored and I never have issue with seeing either. This vid is a perfect example !
I really enjoyed this video. I live in, and am from, Northern California Bay Area. Which, I am pretty sure, pioneered the idea that wearing pajamas to the grocery store is perfectly fine. However, I think in my heart my personal style is more Italian. I love the understated bombshell look. I am always trying to find a happy medium between the two. Videos like these help. Also, that leather mini look fabulous on you!
That was a great video! Lots of wonderful looks that really made the most of your wonderful looks (all that running has to be good for something....ha ha😊) and good exploration/explanation of how changing up elements can give a completely different nuance to a look.
Ciao Alyssa, Loved this video ☺️ and I have to say, although I am italian, that I love both styles! It depends on the occasion really, I saw a big change in the gen Z, they’re looking for comfort more than style “per se” ; when I was in uni, it was important to have a “serious” attire, now there isn’t anymore!
Okay, so I love this concept so much! It's super cool and creative. The whole socks and heels thing can be for other people, not for me though, but you should rock it!! The sweater dress is also beautiful.
Ditto on the socks + heels, that would raise eyebrows in my neck of the woods. Everything else would work, though. Great to see how style varies from place to place.
Oh wow! I stayed In Monteverde many times years ago. This is my fav video as I contrasts so well the differences I felt going from super casual New Zealand to Rome!! Saved! ❤❤❤
I'm wondering about your olive acordian pleated skirt under the grey sweater dress, with scarf and boots. I loved the cropped jeans with the trench over. Don't know if you noticed the way the hems created a pagoda-like line, which was very cool. Lots to think about as always. Thanks.
Another fun and informative video Alyssa! Thank you! Your videos are giving me such an opportunity to reconsider how I want my style to be and what I need to look for to change and upgrade my wardrobe. I have a question as well: I'd really like to know what you would suggest your blue puzzle bag with the jeans, black merino wool top and white runny sneakers. Though the overall look is good, for me, I know I would go with a black purse to compliment the outfit. Why not use one of your black bags? Why the puzzle for that look? I'm curious, that's all. Hoping to learn more as to how your eye sees that overall look vs the same outfit with a black bag or the fanny pack (which, btw, I love!!) Thanks!
Thank you! Great question- I chose the puzzle simple bc it is my favourite bag … not because of the colour or anything but bc I just love the design , the shape, structure, and how functional and beautiful it is. :)
Recently came back from a Rome holiday and it was so hot! Lots of cowboy boots..in that heat! And thick jeans! I was dying in a super thin breezy dress and trainers 😅
When going to the theatre I put some effort into looking more dressed up or polished. As it is a live performance the actors can see the audience and I think it just provides a little “respect”. 👗❤️🇨🇦
A fresh concept to create different looks for two cultures with the same pieces. Very interesting and fun to watch. I like the Canadian looks more than the Italian looks except the last one with the black blazer. The more casual, relaxed vibe looks better on a very lean, athletic build. Italian looks might work better on softer, more feminine body types.
this is an interesting theory! I do subscribe to the idea that every body can wear whatever they like primarily, but always interested in ideas like this!
My own theory is exactly the opposite lol! I'm size 4 hourglass shape and tend to dislike the softer/feminine style on myself (and sometimes in others) as I feel too bombshell or "round shaped". I feel better wearing hard and structured cuts and fabrics. Alyssa's athletic body looks great in softer/feminine cuts. It might be just my taste/view and preferences of course
@@cbp7062 it is quite interesting that we seem to always want something we don’t have. I have an athletic and lean body, size 4 as well. I always want to look feminine and soft. I tried lots of feminine soft clothes, but never really feel right. When I wear more modern, relaxed, minimal clothing, I look effortlessly good. But I get bored with it. Then I start another cycle. I realize style has emotional element and technical element. Driven by emotion, everyone can wear everything as long as it makes her feel good. Then the technical side like body type, proportion, coloring, personality dictate whether one looks good in certain clothes. I try to find a balance, a happy medium. It is like marriage. Yes everyone is free to marry anyone. But if one marries someone highly compatible, happiness is a lot easier to achieve.
Feeling so inspired by this. Where is the oversized sweater (paired with leather skirt) from? Seemed more like an oat color vs the grey Freja sweater dress. Thank you!

Awesome pieces! Perfect outfits 😘. BRAVA!!

Really fun, interesting and inspiring... It'd be so interesting to compare Toronto and Montreal. Simple, subdued, dark vs. dramatic, sexy, creative
Great video Allyssa. I especially loved the grey sweater,jeans and trench coat the best. But I also loved the leather skirt, white shirt,boots and aqua sweater.
Love the moto over sweater dress, tights & boots!

This is one of your best videos!! Thank you!❤
I really loved this video, as it can really apply to styling looks for dressy for more casual looks anywhere , making it so relatable. Very Inspiring!
Where does the endless creativity come from lol - your vids/mixing and matching are so helpful with shopping my own closet

This was amazing 🤩 what a wonderful idea to compare the two facets of yourself in the way you style your clothes. Wonderful ideas 💡
Ho scoperto i tuoi video da poco e li adoro! Puoi fare uno dedicato alle scarpe e i should have per favore🙏
I always enjoy your videos, Alyssa! What are the tall black boots with the block heel?
Ciao Alyssa,
Loved this video ☺️ and I have to say, although I am italian, that I love both styles! It depends on the occasion really, I saw a big change in the gen Z, they’re looking for comfort more than style “per se” ;
when I was in uni, it was important to have a “serious” attire, now there isn’t anymore!
Okay, so I love this concept so much! It's super cool and creative. The whole socks and heels thing can be for other people, not for me though, but you should rock it!! The sweater dress is also beautiful.

Love all the outfits 👌
thank you! you look gorgeous no matter what you wear ;)
Omg Alyssa : you are giving me all the info I look for, Im so in love with italian style❤Thank you💋Happy Thanksgiving Bella🦃🙏🏼

Oh wow! I stayed In Monteverde many times years ago. This is my fav video as I contrasts so well the differences I felt going from super casual New Zealand to Rome!! Saved! ❤❤❤
I loved seeing the differences - very evident! Thanks for an awesome video! :)
I was going to say that those boots in your last outfit were too dark, until you put on the pea coat, which brought the look together. 👍❤️
❤
I love your belt where can I get one?
I'm wondering about your olive acordian pleated skirt under the grey sweater dress, with scarf and boots. I loved the cropped jeans with the trench over. Don't know if you noticed the way the hems created a pagoda-like line, which was very cool. Lots to think about as always. Thanks.
Yes that would also work! Love that silhouette
Great view on how to look at your closet!
Great styles! Especially the leather mini skirt with long jumper on top! A little weird editing choice at 7.51, wanted to see the finished look 😅
Love your videos! You are so talented. Regards from Spain
Another fun and informative video Alyssa! Thank you! Your videos are giving me such an opportunity to reconsider how I want my style to be and what I need to look for to change and upgrade my wardrobe.

Hoping to learn more as to how your eye sees that overall look vs the same outfit with a black bag or the fanny pack (which, btw, I love!!) Thanks!
Thank you! Great question- I chose the puzzle simple bc it is my favourite bag … not because of the colour or anything but bc I just love the design , the shape, structure, and how functional and beautiful it is. :)
Recently came back from a Rome holiday and it was so hot! Lots of cowboy boots..in that heat! And thick jeans!
I was dying in a super thin breezy dress and trainers 😅
Love those black tall boots! What brand are those? I don't see them in your list. Love your style so much
I’m here for the repeats too❤!
Brava! Grazie mille😊
Could you wear the wide leg ankle jeans with Chelsea boots?
Hmmm tough call I would say yes if the ankle is tall enough
When going to the theatre I put some effort into looking more dressed up or polished. As it is a live performance the actors can see the audience and I think it just provides a little “respect”. 👗❤️🇨🇦
Great concept and video! Thank you!
Do you use paper or tissue paper to stop the hanger leaving an imprint on the leather skirt.....that was genius by the way.
I was wondering the same!
I used tissue paper but scrap fabric is good too!
Fun. Always learn so much. ❤ happy thanksgiving ❤
Alyssa! Can you please share info on your tall black boots??? Need!
The over the knee are secondhand with no brand and the knee highs are Dear Frances :)
@@AlyssaBeltempo thank you for the quick reply- absolutely love your style. So inspiring!
I adore your watch can you please share where I may be able to purchase. Love the channel and content.
Thank you - the chain link one is Nordgreen and the black leather strap is from a Canadian company that is now no longer in operation.
I'd love to buy a rack to hang my clothes on like the one you are showing here. Do you have a link/recommendation? Thank you!
A fresh concept to create different looks for two cultures with the same pieces. Very interesting and fun to watch. I like the Canadian looks more than the Italian looks except the last one with the black blazer. The more casual, relaxed vibe looks better on a very lean, athletic build. Italian looks might work better on softer, more feminine body types.
this is an interesting theory! I do subscribe to the idea that every body can wear whatever they like primarily, but always interested in ideas like this!
My own theory is exactly the opposite lol! I'm size 4 hourglass shape and tend to dislike the softer/feminine style on myself (and sometimes in others) as I feel too bombshell or "round shaped". I feel better wearing hard and structured cuts and fabrics. Alyssa's athletic body looks great in softer/feminine cuts. It might be just my taste/view and preferences of course
@@cbp7062 it is quite interesting that we seem to always want something we don’t have. I have an athletic and lean body, size 4 as well. I always want to look feminine and soft. I tried lots of feminine soft clothes, but never really feel right. When I wear more modern, relaxed, minimal clothing, I look effortlessly good. But I get bored with it. Then I start another cycle. I realize style has emotional element and technical element. Driven by emotion, everyone can wear everything as long as it makes her feel good. Then the technical side like body type, proportion, coloring, personality dictate whether one looks good in certain clothes. I try to find a balance, a happy medium. It is like marriage. Yes everyone is free to marry anyone. But if one marries someone highly compatible, happiness is a lot easier to achieve.
Love all the outfits. I actually have lots of stuff from sezane!! And I love all my pieces as well:). Thank u❤

Feeling so inspired by this. Where is the oversized sweater (paired with leather skirt) from? Seemed more like an oat color vs the grey Freja sweater dress. Thank you!
Ah it is a vintage men’s Valentino!
