I just lost all of my jewellery, coats, shoes, bags & majority of my clothes in a devastating flood that hit my town on the East Coast of Australia. I have been following your tips for such a long time now. I finally was in a place where I was happy with my wardrobe & little tweaks were all that was needed. I am still in shock to be starting all over again. I have been wearing other people’s donated clothes for two weeks now. It is a humbling experience.
Best wishes as you move through this very difficult time. I lost all my shoes and some clothes in a minor flood, years of collecting and saving gone. I repeated "nobody died" to myself for months. Set aside a little money each month, shop online and thrift to replace a few pieces as you can.
Oh, that must be such a tough experience. Where do you start? Sorry to hear. Floods and natural disasters are beyond our control and such a shocker. Often, it is a “get out with your life” situation. Sending good vibes to you for your recovery from this devastating time. Insurance can pay to replace stuff but can’t replace the feelings and memories.
I know! I hate it with a passion that I can't speak like her in her tone. I'm naturally too loud and animated and as some people love it others are really turned off by it. I'm sometimes turned off by it. I wish I could be more calm and like her. To me she is a cross between Angelina Jolie and Duchess of Cambridge.
The reason all your videos stand out and are invariably helpful is because you are so analytical. It takes a lot of thinking and that's something many people may not have the time for, so coming to this channel, it's like, all the information is already synthesized into insights and frameworks. Thanks so much for being so analytical about style and doing the thinking on our behalves.
As Coco Chanel once said: "Simplicity is the true key to elegance", I think that is what we perceive as 'classic', and that's the style that stands the test of time (in order to avoid the 'what was I thinking??' reaction when we look at old photos 😊)
Love this video. Going through my closet, my favorite pieces are the ones that are the most simple. Then I’ll add a hat, jewlery, or wear my hair a different way. My “uniform” would be a pair of Levi’s, tucked in high neck tank or plain t, gold hoops and gold chain necklace hair naturally wavy :) (stay at home,homeschool mama of 6) simple and easy but timeless is my jam.
This is basically me, as well! But make it a well fitted modern denim skirt! Simple shirtdress are also so classic and a part of my uniform. I’m also a homeschool mom of 8. Simple but pulled together is best with so many other things and people to look after.
What helps me the most now is to look at old photos of my family. What my grandma, grandad, uncles etc wore and the simpler the better in my opinion. What does not help me is Pinterest as there are too many trendy outfits that in real life are not practical/comfortable plus they make me more consumerist instead of mindful. We should all keep in mind that we all have unique features so we do not have to do much to have a personal style and that it is good to adjust our clothes to our lifestyle rather than other way around.
I like the idea to infuse a little of the past to the present. I choose burgundy or a chocolate brown lipstick when I wear minimal eye make up. It brings a little bit of the 90’s vibe.
Audrey, those first photos of Broke Shields were the perfect example for what you wanted to convey. She is wearing the exact same type, and color, outfit, yet the hair and makeup make the decade immediately identifiable. (And wow, what a beautiful, classy woman she's been through the years! I'm old enough to remember people's outrage when she acted in Pretty Baby and Blue Lagoon and made those suggestive---for the times--Calvin Klein Jeans commercials.)
Makes me sad that everyone was mad at her when she was merely a teenager at the time. I can’t imagine how jarring it must have been to be sexualized at such a young age. Hollywood still has a long way to go, but I’m glad more protections have been put into place to keep kids safer.
@@BubblyViolin11 Agreed. She was only a child; the industry is to blame, as is her mother for pushing her into show business at any cost. It's honestly amazing that she turned out so normal.
The top you're wearing in this video honestly captures the content and ideas reflected in the video so well, Audrey! It's definitely a more dated piece, but the way you style it makes it feel fresh and new. Thank you for these very helpful tips!
It's such a thoughtful take on fashion. I like how you talked about doing decade specific makeup to change things a bit. I feel it would really help me utilise my wardrobe and makeup in more ways than one.
Hair is a good point! I am looking at transitioning to grey. I have grown my hair out during Covid, but am looking at returning to a more “Jamie Lee Curtis” cut. My hairdresser has helped me go a lighter shade which lets the roots blend in, so when I do take the plunge and go short again. It won’t be a big issue with the colour. However, this is my last kick at the can with long hair, so the decision is a step by step one!
Great video! As I've developed my personal style, I've learned that I'm really drawn to outfits that use classic pieces as a foundation with some kind of modern or edgy twist (e.g. cool boots, chunky hoop earrings, a statement coat). People often think of classic pieces as boring, but there's so much you can do with it.
Hello there Audrey. Lately, I have been loving the classic, elegant clean look with minimal colors especially maroon, black, dark blue, and so on which is why I would like to ask you to create a lookbook specifically targeting dark colors.
This was brilliant. Topics I've never heard shared and shared so well. It's given me a clearer perspective on my basics choices and the opportunity to be quite playfull too. Thank you!!!
I love love love your clothes and clothing styles videos but can you please consider making more lifestyle videos please? Your how to wake up early video is my go to video whenever I fall off the "wake up early" wagon. You are awe inspiring and I want to know your lifestyle and general life secrets so that maybe I can be as great as you one day...
audrey i love you so much! That top looks great on you. Did your color analyst talk about what shade of white you should be shopping for that fits you best? That is one area I am still struggling in.
I have so many clothes that are over twenty years old; specifically, button down plain or stripped blouses and I wear them all time with skirts or pants. Sometimes, I wear a pullover sweater, sometimes a cardigan, sometimes I wear a scarf and it keeps it fresh and it appears that I have more clothes than I do. What really keeps it from looking fresh is the shoes. Boots, pumps, loafers, flats, heels-- I wear all of them depending on the weather and my mood.
I love looking at old (20th century) photos and fashion magazines. Some people could fit in any decade because their clothes, makeup, jewelry and hair are timeless and simple. Simple timeless pieces that can be dressed up or dressed down means always having something appropriate to wear.
Thanks Audrey. Would find a video on blazers for petites very helpful. Could expand as a deep dive for different classics I.e. trousers, tops etc for different body types. Thanks as always.
Another vote for a petite blazer video. I am 4’11” and usually 6P, but size up to 8P because of my shoulders. The best blazer I have was tailor made 37 years ago; it looks timeless because it has no lapels.
@@susanm1195 Try Banana Republic "Long and Lean Blazer" in Petite. I usually buy wool, but this one is of polyester, rayon and spandex, making it comfortable and WASHABLE.
Always a pleasure to watch, always something delightful and practical to take away. Such a fan, Audrey! Would you kindly provide information on your white button up at 5:20? Looks like a perfect cut! Much appreciated :)
Hi, Audrey. I’m loving your videos. We are taking a European River cruise this summer and in one of your videos you wore a beautiful white/floral top. Would love to know where you found it. Thank you❤
This video is so well presented Audrey and the information well researched, as always. Thank you for your insight as I find it so practical and helpful for my own fashion journey.
Wear something that reminds obviously the sixties or the seventies for example doesn't mean you look outdated, but you have a faible for this style and you can look fantastic in this. And you look like you have a good style (if you look good in this). Ti me what makes you look outdated is to wear something that was an obvious big trend a few years ago. For this reason, I never buy trendy pieces. But also because I have my own style and I sm proud of it. It may be sometimes also something that reminds the 60ies ;)
There’s a real fear of trends. Do we all want to dress the same way for the rest of our lives? I think it’s fun to look through the various decades and check out the fashion.
I didn't even think a lot about it, yes. I wear a lot of vintage things (since I love buying my clothes second hand) but a lot of those things don't even look that vintage when you don't have at least the hair style to match it.
Audrey, thanks for taking the time to share these wonderful tips! Not sure it is just me, I think your recent video seems off focus as the image of you is not sharp. Maybe it is the camera filter? On the other hand, I really enjoy listening to you :)
I’ve been wearing white consistently for 30 years lol. I never really noticed it until I looked back at some old photos and saw that i wore white in many of them. It was kinda eery to see actually. I guess it’s my go to signature color. It’s white or black in colder months.
Thanks for tips Audrey! It's not about what is in or out of fashion it's about me creating a classic style and you're the best to give tips and advice on style. 👏🕊️💐

I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm glad you're at least alright, but I can't imagine how devastating it would be to lose so many of your possessions.
So sorry for your loss!! Can’t imagine how you must feel!
Oh, that must be such a tough experience. Where do you start? Sorry to hear. Floods and natural disasters are beyond our control and such a shocker. Often, it is a “get out with your life” situation. Sending good vibes to you for your recovery from this devastating time. Insurance can pay to replace stuff but can’t replace the feelings and memories.
Oh no! That must be devastating. I hope you are able to build back your life and wardrobe in a satisfying way.
I like your voice and a manner of speaking, so calming. That how a lady speaks.
Its her voice for me...it's what i usually tell my students. Your tone of voice and way of delivery can be every thing. Totally loved this
I know! I hate it with a passion that I can't speak like her in her tone. I'm naturally too loud and animated and as some people love it others are really turned off by it. I'm sometimes turned off by it. I wish I could be more calm and like her. To me she is a cross between Angelina Jolie and Duchess of Cambridge.
Most of it is probably from her voice/singing training. You wouldn’t want that tone if you were in danger or trying to warn others of danger.
Same here, her voice is so calming. Love her videos 💐
@@freesimorgh you don't have to be like her.... You can just adjust yours to still feel like yours and only a little like her
Her voice is beautiful, but sounds like a little girl instead of a woman. Very cute!

This was fun and interesting. Your blouse is FANTASTIC. Happy Summer (almost)!

I thought the exact same thing. It is the definition of a 'classic' piece :)
Yeah I would say “classic” more than “dated”. I love it!

Part of the video! I love those boots with that gold zipper up the back ❤️

Very helpful! Thank you Audrey. Putting the focus on hair, makeup, and footwear is a lightbulb moment!
Really good explanation of what dates the look!

Your voice is so soft ❤️👍🏻
I appreciate this topic and video.
I just adore you Audrey! I love this video so much and this approach. Ps. This top in your intro is stunning! So gorgeous on you!
That white top is so pretty 🤩
Extremely helpful & clear breakdown with excellent photo examples--thank you!
Good advice
Thank you for this Audrey!

Hello! Great tips and suggestions. Thanks and Happy Sunday! 👍🏼☀️😊
Hello Dear Audrey! Love your all videos, can you post the link to your blouse that u are wearing , please? It’s adorable and suits you perfectly. 🥰
Wow Audrey! Great content!! Loving your white romantic classic top!!!
Excelent video!
Such useful information, thank you!
There’s a real fear of trends. Do we all want to dress the same way for the rest of our lives? I think it’s fun to look through the various decades and check out the fashion.
But I mean this respectfully! I know we can’t buy “Of the moment things” all the time.
Love your videos. Can you (or anyone in comments?) please recommend someone on TH-cam as classy as you but for blonds?
Could you make a video about shoes for spring that are not sneakers? It is too warm for boots and too cold for sandals and other open shoes. 💞
Lovely as always thank you 😊
Great tips! Thank you. Do you still wear your chuck taylor shoes?
I missed you glad you are back! Always love the videos always always learn something new& you look gorgeous! Thanks Audrey XXOO

Lovely
Must say, you look beautiful
I’ve been wearing white consistently for 30 years lol. I never really noticed it until I looked back at some old photos and saw that i wore white in many of them. It was kinda eery to see actually. I guess it’s my go to signature color. It’s white or black in colder months.
That was a very useful video. Thank you 😊
Lovely tips, thank you so much!!
Excellent, thank you
Another fantastic video!!!!
Thank you 💐
What are the jeans you're wearing please ? 🥺
Another great video thank you
So lovely vídeo! 👋🏻👋🏻
Nice 🙂
I could seriously listen to this woman read a list of medicine side effects. Audrey has the most lovely speaking voice!
🤣😂yes!
Good video. Thank you
Beautiful
Classic 💕
I love the belt at 1:15. Does anyone happen to know where I could find it?
I would kill to have Brooke Shields 80’s hair. I’d wear it loud and proud, lol
Simply stunning
Also we need to know where you got those boots from
Thanks Audrey. Stay beautiful 😊🤍🎀🌸 love these tips
What is the painting in the "Color and Print" section? Who is that? And by whom?
Where is the black leather belt from?
Yes! I was just about to ask this. Love that buckle.
Lov it...love it...😍
Cool
Thanks for tips Audrey! It's not about what is in or out of fashion it's about me creating a classic style and you're the best to give tips and advice on style. 👏🕊️💐
Hi Audrey 🙋🏻♀️
The no makeup makeup look never goes out of style, much like a red lip
