Great tips. But I'm 81 and becoming more sensitive to style that refers to looking older. I quite like my age. And in truth, none of your tips refer to age. They are more about being contemporary. I absolutely want to look contemporary! When I'm on the subway, I look at how people dress to see what I might like to try. It's a lot of fun! Many ideas are clearly for younger bodies. I love looking at them without wanting to wear them. But I might see an idea that would be great on any body, even an old lady 😅. Something more contemporary. I choose to think when you refer to not looking older, you mean looking "now". Alight. I'm going to go and download that style guide now. Love your videos
The reality is: if you're rich and famous, your bags are seen as a sign of success. If you are just an ordinary worker working a 9-to-5 job, your real bag is likely to be *gtdupe*
@@LeckySenneI have never associated "rich and famous" with success. Not even as a kid...a long time ago. I thought the most glamorous woman I had ever seen was someone who visited us at a cottage wearing big red polka dots on white ...with matching red nails 😅. I was only 8 after all. If you want a designer purse, pinch your pennies for as long as it takes to buy one. But don't assume someone with a bargain basement bag is less successful. Or that people will think you aren't successful because you have a bargain basement knock-off.
It's interesting that Justine sees older women wearing more neutrals. Over my life of several decades I've more often seen women going much brighter with colors and accessories.
I think it's a cultural thing.. I feel like those cheap, bright tricot fabric garments are way more common than neutrals around here.. and I feel they most of the time look unflattering because the material is cheap and doesn't drape beautifully..
Go to any US grocery store and you’ll see us old ladies wearing color, prints and accessories. The young un’s dress colorless drabs with messy hair and ridiculous eyelashes 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Justine, thank you for yet another interesting video. I enjoy such videos but often feel left out. I spend most of my time in a wheelchair. Two aspects are a, you become invisible and, b, any clothes which look good when standing lose their impact when sitting. Last weekend I attended a wedding, many emails went around the family about what family members were wearing. I didn’t share the excitement as I felt no one would notice anyway. I enjoy making my clothes and altering older ones. As a result I can be different. I have always loved being myself. I used to enjoy wearing muted colours, much to my husband’s frustration, but now I concentrate on brighter clothes to help my visibility. I always choose looser clothing as I struggle to get dressed and to handle fasteners. Also sitting means my abdomen is at its most and I need to allow for arm/shoulder movement when propelling myself. The dress I made moved beautifully when on and I was sorry it would not be seen in its glory but I still felt its beauty. You know that feeling new, just right clothing practically makes you strut? Well, you can still strut when sitting in that I sat tall and proud and not my usual weary posture. The dress was fully lined with a more jewel like hue and I understitched the lining in the opposite direction, in that the lining edged the neck and sleeve lines. I really liked how the lining and main fabric worked together so wanted to highlight the effect. One of my usual choices is to layer a lot of my clothes. As my clothes don’t get seen moving I like to highlight different types/colours/finishes etc. Writing this has helped me notice how much fun I do get when playing with my clothes, and I am thankful how well my Grandmother taught me to sew. A complete turn about in mood - I think I love being different. Thank you.
I love this! I have chronic respiratory impairment post Covid and need 24/7 oxygen support. I have nasal cannulae attached to a portable oxygen concentrator that I wear as a crossbody sling bag. I have worked on my posture, strength and gait to move gracefully over short distances. My 3 style words are Visible, Engaging and Confident as I work with children. I embrace classic comfortable, effortless clothes in my preferred colour palette of jewel tones with proportions that flatter my body type. My favourite accessory is a smile coupled with eye contact. We have no reason to recede into the corners as we still have much to offer in life.
You are wearing the Armed Angels Dress of the Summer! I sell it in my boutique here in Canada. I try to only stock ethically made clothes--a challenge that I gladly take on. I have always loved your content, for your natural intelligence and class shine through everything you do.
A great reminder of basic principles. I think the real issue is not necessarily looking older, but frumpy or out of date. I see so many women my age wearing out of date outfits (think cropped pants and printed tops) that would look amazing with a more polished and up to date style. You can remain comfortable in your clothes without giving up on style. Thanks Justine.
Hi Justine, your suggestions are great but in the case of marking the waist, not all of us can do it, I'm tall but I have a short torso, marking the waist doesn't look good. Can you make a video with suggestions for those who don't have the waist on the right place ?
@@teresa1536 Your waist IS on THE RIGHT place. It's more about what people CONSIDER harmonious proportions. You could try to add a nice long scarf or a small cross body bag to give a different accent to your outfit.
Frederique uploaded a video yesterday stating we can’t wear shorts then showed a photo of of long shorts and cropped pants. Nothing screams old lady like cropped pants unless you pair them with a form fitting top
My mother always said the exact same thing to me that you quote from Chanel - that before you go out, look in your mirror and take something off (obviously accessories, not knickers!)
Justine, you're a gem amongst fashion youtubers! Always logical, to the point, with lots of context and underlying information, I adore your work.Thank you.
I wish I had that experience! In linen pants and a full linen shirt I am hot as hell in that tempreature weather. Linen and silk, even worse. What is your secret?
Justine, I’m 73 and my wardrobe is as you suggest. Being short I find that monochromatic look helps me look taller. I love neutrals but also love color so I too usually add harmonious color to any neutral while still keeping it fairly monochromatic, tricky, right? My problem now is that might lifestyle is retired but I still like to dress. I just don’t have anywhere to go, LOL. So I dress up to go to the store, any store. it makes me feel good. Thank you
@@sarahwatts7152 I totally agree. If it makes you smile and feel pretty dressed up for the day then wear it. I do that too. I have friends that will ask where are you going? No where, I just feel like dressing up
I love u Justine. Wanted to mention that as a Bangladeshi American woman, I value the minimalist style for its simplicity abd ease. However, having grown up with a rich and diverse and colorful literally, southasians have adorned gorgeous mixture of patterns and colors, fabrics and cuts. I notice the sa.e with African prints and also appreciate our beautiful heritage of vibrancy. Thanks for sharing your perspective, its always a treat to watch you explain things.
Fantastic tips!! 🙌 Some things I also advocate for are: 1) Gradually getting used to bolder colours with baby steps. Maybe a medium periwinkle, lavender, cherry, or cornflower blue for example. Start small and get used to seeing yourself in that colour first, and then go brighter. 2) One signature accessory in a bright colour to also ease into the transition. An eye-catching scarf, pair of gloves, or handbag can really change the whole vibe of an outfit. 3) Make it a point to look at the people around you on a typical day out, and/or fashion accounts online. If you see an outfit that you love on someone else but hadn't considered for yourself, then use that as inspiration to build an outfit to suit your body type.
Videos like this remind me why you are the only fashion channel that I follow. Your knowledge, experience, and accessibility are unmatched. I have tried others and have to turn off when they simply say one look is "better" with no explanation as to how or why. You back up your reasons with educated knowledge. I look forward to reading the pdf, thank you!! 💕
Looking beautiful and positively glowing Mademoiselle Justine! Speaking of even if it's not en vogue I wore Neon Green yesterday as I really enjoy the light that it reflects and how it makes my Skin look, especially around my face. It may not be for everyone, but I like how Bold and Vivid it is and it makes me feel happy! xo
Enjoy your advice - so succinct and practical. Now I am in my 70's I avoid patterns apart from stripes, dots or plaid. It makes such a difference to 'not looking old'! I do wear geometric paterned scarves at times.
Justine, I adore you! Every idea and video is implanted in my head. You’re my style icon with your fresh, minimal lines, concentrating on color,fabric and fit. I’ve learned so much from you. About the neutrals, my mother was a classic fashion plate. She knew which designer fit her petite frame therefore always looking great. I was chubby when she dazzled, so there was little point emulating her at that time. While all my friends shopped at “Collegiate Shop”, I had to go to…are you ready….”The Chubbette Shop” 😮! My self esteem was beaten down to nonexistence lol. No problem. I’m 107 lbs now. Regarding neutrals, a woman at a design house told her : “Nothing screams money louder than beige.” For the right occasion, I go to beige for no other reason than to showcase my jewelry. No, it’s not Cartier. Lol. Thanks again, Justine. I appreciate every video. 🙏🪷❤️
The only print I find to be timeless is geometric prints. My goodness, I had no Idea Justine is almost 6' tall, a model for sure, beautiful and nice to see someone who has not been persuaded to cut off long hair.
Up until recently almost everything for plus size women (like me) was all big, huge prints in garish colors. It doesn't so much work if you're also petite like me. Thankfully I've found good clothing in neutrals and pastels as well as moderate and small patterns. Also, the boxy + fitted is really great - I like to do, for example, a boxy blazer with a fitted blouse and fitted trousers, or wide-leg trousers with a fitted blouse and fitted cardigan. Always great advice here!
I learned in design school that using colors next to each other on the color wheel is called an analogous color scheme - not clashing. 🤔😁 I would associate the word clashing with a contrasting color scheme - green/red, purple/yellow, blue/orange. Nice take on this topic! And thank you so much for the guide! 😀
Colours may have charts & wheels etc; but, although I am a watercolour artist & paint to make my work sellable, my colours in dress are chosen to co-ordinate & make me feel comfortable. If other people don't like it = tough !
My seamstress has a great trick for the waist: she hides elastic on the sides, so my clothes adapt to "changes". So the skirt looks structured, but it is very comfortable.
The small gold earrings I bought from you before seem very modern and timeless too. I still enjoy them. Thank you for creating them and making them available.
Body skimming clothings is always a win, regardless of the size of the body. Oversized and tight clothing tend to look frumpy on everyone. People need to wear clothing in their true size, shoulder fitting and waist definition is important and is the main culprit for looking frumpy
thank you. When re-watching the edited video, I actually wondered why my hands looked so brown/tanned outside and so white/pink inside - I thought the color correction was wrong in the video. But no, that's just my best summer tan in years ;-) Yay!
Great advices as always but for the prints I partly agree: I'd say there are just a few that are timeless: small polka dots, stripes and tiny flowers... You see them always around and they are accepted for smart casual and more relaxed casual looks too😊
Thank you for your free advice! I did notice in the timeless fashion PDF, that my body type was left out; a flat board turned into a barrel over time! Over the decades, what with gravity, diet, and forty years at a “desk-job”, my darn stomach has almost equaled my breast measurements and hip measurements. I’m 5’ 3” and 130 ponds, so I don’t feel I’m overweight, but I sure look it. I’ve tried the belt and tucking the front of the shirt into the pants front, but, on me, it still looks frumpy. As I rarely leave my home, it’s just me I’m trying to please, so for the most part, I’m embracing the “frump”! (I still wear my rings everyday with gemstones color coordinated with my outfit. It makes me happy. I can still wear the aquamarine ring my mom gave me for my 16th birthday) Thanks for all you do ! Love your ring collection
Empire line (fitted around/under the bust, which is your slimmest point, then flowing outward) or A-line (shaped like the letter) clothes might work for you.
Merci, Justine! Clear, sound, practical advice as usual, & following it doesn't necessarily require buying scads of new clothes & jewelry. I like that you couch it in terms of modernizing, updating styles rather than focusing on age & youth. (Beautiful cameos by Iris Apfel & Jennifer Lawrence!) As a petite, not-so-tall woman, I will be thrilled when boxy styles start receding. Too often it seems like lazy, cheap design: don't bother to consider the body wearing it, just make it a flat, wide box & it'll fit everyone! One last note, nothing to do with today's video, but I want you to know that I absolutely love my crossbody bag! Love.
Your jewelry line is beautiful! I love silver pieces but find it a challenge to care for. A video on how to care for it would be wonderful (ideally easy). 😊
@@NotARussianBot999This is wrong. Silver jewellery turns dark even with everyday use. I’m talking about actual silver instead of silver-coloured mimics. That’s why i have stopped wearing them now.
Tarnishing is inevitable with silver but you can slow it down. I only wear sterling silver because everything else irritates my skin, and I've found it tarnishes more when exposed to the air (I live in a coastal region so maybe that adds to it). I have lots of earrings and hang them up on boards, so what I did was I put the boards into large plastic ziplock bags and keep them sealed. Other jewellery that doesn't hang up, I keep in clear plastic boxes that are closed. It's not pretty like a fancy box would be but it takes much longer now for them to tarnish plus they don't get dusty. I also got a proper silver polishing cloth from a jeweller and use it if they start looking a bit darker.
@molamolalaaa2968 I have a sterling silver ring I put on at least 10 years ago. It has never tarnished. 10 years of constant wear. Beach, swimming pool, washing dishes. Same with the silver ring i have had for 8 months and not taken off. The ones I don't wear every day tarnish. A few rubs and a day of wearing and everything is polished.
Just realised today that I’ll remember this summer season as the time I discovered LINEN KNITS. Such a life saver, both biologically and stylistically. I also found two cardigans in knitted hemp. The best part? All of them Japanese brands, but thrifted!!😊
Great tips! It's amazing how small changes can make such a big difference in how we look and feel. Thanks for the easy fixes - definitely going to try them out!
Thank you for yet another helpful video! I am turning 40 this year and notice how my body changes. Style is an individual expression, but I feel much younger than I look. So I would be very grateful for more creative impulses from you about style & age ❤
These are amazing tips and I agree with all of them. For me, there is one exception when it comes to too much jewelry. I love it when jewelry is layered very richly, but only when it is about ethic diversity. Think African, South American or Middle Eastern beading - it can be really big and bold, but still looking progressive and very cool (or very sexy, depending on what you're going for).
I tend to wear neutrals, say black pants and cardigan,not clingy to the body, but I wear a swirled design fitted top that has tiny bits of black in it. I tend to wear very little jewelry, like a bracelet and earrings only. Thats because I follow your advice. I have received numerous compliments, thanks to you!!!!
OMG...eeek. I'm a linen person lol. And I love my pajamas. Do love colour however....but still stuck largely on black...with a colour occasionally. My excuse is, I'm old. Lovely to see you. Hope your refurbishment is going well.
Black linen is gorgeous and I love them too! Large areas of black paired with a small patch of color makes that small dose of color much more vibrant and beautiful
I think it depends on context, where i live linen is mostly worn by people aged 20-35, and it's in neutral tones. 60+ are the ones wearing bright colors and bold prints (maybe because they were young in the 80s when those colors became really popular, if we go by Justine's logic)!
My mom is in her 70s and has Justine's coloring, but more pale. She wore pastels in the 1960s,but now a lot of red and white. She looks fresh and cute. I am more olive and genx and wear more muted greens. Though i have integrated dusty orange, deep purple and turquoise. More saturated but not bright.
Matching jewellery sets are like matching furniture sets in the living room or bedroom. The advantage with jewellery sets is that you can wear one or two of the pieces, not all. It's harder to do that with furniture!
I feel like my grandmother in the 90s did wear a lot of neutrals but also that today’s 60ish crowd goes for a lot of zebra print and rhinestone appliqué.
When I studied Communication Design, we had to learn, that not just the product we present needs to be good, the presentation needs to look good, our invoices, our email signatures - since this is what we get paid to do. Our clients come to us for design, so everything we present to the world in our name, needs to have our signature. There were times I spent 3 hours on writing a simple invoice until I went to a more automated system (but still spent 3+ hours creating my templates there, too ; ) But now that i have it, its a 15min thing ) - what i am longwindedly saying here: This is something I appreciate about you. Your 'brand' is fashion: elegant, sustainable, personal, polished, conscious. And this reflects in everything you do and present. From the articles you write to your newsletter. We notice - maybe subconsciously. All that extra work is worth it and is something i deeply appreciate about you. (And I also think of the cobbler having the worst shoes. My business cards looked horrible first semester graphic design artsy because it took ages to finally tackle my own CI : D by now I did. Either for 'serious clients' or for 'fun clients')
thank you very much. It's super interesting to read these adjectives about how you perceive my aesthetics across platforms and media. I do find it incredibly hard to make the words and the images (videos) match. We don't learn to apply one's aesthetics to video, in fashion school: we learn only to describe our work visually (through static images aka mood boards, through texture, fabrics, volumes and colours), and with words. In video, the challenge of the technical know-how comes on top (esp. because I don't hire a professional agency to film me, I do it myself) - I can see that my videos have improved with time, but I feel they still don't have the look they should have in order for them to look the way I want to (and I've published over 300 videos...). But since you work in design as well, you surely experience this too: it's all still work in progress even though from an outside perspective, it already kind of fits together. That's why I don't believe in "talent", "genius" and this kind of thing. Clearly, what makes creatives stand out is much more training one's eye, practicing one's craft, reflecting on the result and then repeating that process again and again. There's a theory about needing 10,000 hours in order to reach mastery in any field (can't remember whose theory this was) but I find that this number doesn't even come close!
On a side note, I am always surprised, when I learn that a channel I've been watching for a long time hired an editor... usually it improves the work and those people can do more of what they really want to do. The editor usually has such a strong voice, too and I am always amazed if the transition is seamless. That's a craft with ??? for me.
I like you and your channel. I've already enjoyed countless things, learned many others, but I think the world belongs to everyone. And everyone has the right to have their opinion validated, and to dress how they feel best, to be able to express themselves without fear, to have their space to be themselves. It is not possible for other people to determine how we should dress, and silence our will, our values, our personal tastes. We don't all need to come in the same way. We can be free, we should fight for freedom. Still, thank you for so many good things you teach us.
Hi and thank you for the pdf reference on timeless wardrobes. I always think when I see queen Camilla that she is someone who understands who she is and what her body style is, or her designers do. I always think she looks very nice. She is someone I look to for inspiration. Also I like the Advanced Style and StyleCrone ladies. They are not afraid to put eclectic things together. I love that.
I always appreciate your content and joyful spirit in the delivery! Thanks so much for the free download, too. I enjoy subscribing to your channel and learn so much from you. Keep smiling and designing beautiful pieces! 👜📿
I love wearing jewel tones, but all that's in stores anymore is neutrals. I pointed out to my husband how every store just has black, white, and beige, and now he mentions it every time we are somewhere that sells clothes - it's like once you see it, you can't unsee it. But I also think at least the first couple "don'ts" around fit and color are actually what's in style right now for Gen Z and young millennials. I (elder millennial) feel like my fitted pieces and brighter colors are dating me when I'm with younger colleagues 😆🙃
Just a petite note to say that I love reading your newsletter and that I will follow your advice on books and movies. I love deeper things too ❤ Je te souhaite un super été!
I always learn so much about style and fashion from your videos. I also love your reviews of fashions shows and I never miss your Met Gala rankings! Thank you. And thank you for your timeless tips guide. They are timeless.
Re timeless prints, happy to say I’m still wearing my tiered Souleiado skirt which I have owned for 45 years !! Still selling in the store…Price has literally been multiplied by 100 😮
@@justineleconte I have just looked on their website and the tiered jupon is just the most expensive item they sell ! It uses a lot of fabric but still. On the subject of forever clothes, there are a lot : trenches, Barbour, cabans, breton tops, striped popeline shirts, 100% coton straight jeans, made in Scotland sweaters whether camel hair, cashmere, geelong, Shetland…. Some Liberty fabrics such as strawberry thief.
I remember the diamond tray *gtdupe* almost all the bags from the jag line in the apartment. I think I watched that video 30 times. Purse collection goals
I find I look bright in a good shade of brown. I used to be a very bright redhead, I suit autumn colours. I like to add either a bright accessory or a patterned something in matching colours. Strange to say it can look quite bright if put together well. We are all unique.
Thanks for the belt idea because it is so hot (34-36 C) and humid that linen is my best friend. At the grocery last night, I did kind of feel like I was in lounge mode. Black now makes me look dead half of the year so I only have a pair of black pants, a button up shirt, a top, a pair of all purpose flats, a tailored raincoat, and that is it. I have taken advantage of the blues, greens, teals, wine colors, and tomato that have been popular over the past year and work really well with my hair and skin coloring. I am kind of a fabric junky, and I like a well designed pattern, but I have really reined myself in to items that work well with multiple solid pants and jackets and that make me happy when I see them. For the first time in more than a decade, I am beginning to have a wardrobe that has a lot of mix and match options, livens up my skin and hair, and makes it fun to get dressed. I can’t wait to see your guide and get more tips for improvement.
Justine I have to say you have always very thoughtful and alluring video ideas! the easy fixes makes this video actually more helpful than just saying what doesn´t look good. Always a pleasure to watch :)
Love this. I would love to see a video from you about men's fashion! I'm a trans man in my late twenties, and I have so much trouble finding clothes that aren't either too young or too old (or too boring 😭). I still love fashion as a man, and now that I'm transitioning and starting to love my body, I don't want to dress it in khaki trousers and patterned button ups forever!!
I put my earrings and necklaces into sets and photo them. I can easily decide which set to wear with outfits or to take for traveling. Sets are designed to match in metal and scale (mire dominant necklace to pair with smaller earrings for example). With or without earrings and necklace I wear stack rings and staking bracelets or bangles daily. I love slim rings stacked and I love 2 or 3 bracelets on each wrists. I put pins on my hats and bags often. I don’t care what others think of me wearing loads of jewelries. It’s my signature whenever i am out of door, regardless if i wear tee and jeans or a dress.
Thank you Justine. I love your videos, perspective and sharing of knowledge. As a British woman in her later life you always brighten my day and improve my self-esteem and joy in life. Many blessings to you ❤
Hey Justine~ Thank you… this was interesting! All my life I have dressed the same - for comfort, and I doubt my style will change now: floor-length well-fitted skirt (very occasionally pants with a similar silhouette) with larger and / or relaxed longer plain top with accessories. I rarely take any accessory off - earrings, necklaces or scarf, watch and bracelets on left wrist, rings on my right thumb and one finger on my left hand. There is always something that ties each piece to at least one other piece. Given I am usually thought to be much younger than I am, it seems I’m not aging myself. One thing I want to try to do, it makes more sense to me now, is a piece in a print with a piece in a graphic (dots, stripes, etc.) print. I also loved the color discussions. I think I’ll go watch this video again… once was not enough…. 😉
Thank you! It is such a pleasure to watch your videos. Always very applicable and well-made. It would be nice to see updates on the house as well if you do not mind sharing.
I love prints because I feel like I can go with one print and pull out the solid colors I want, depending on which day. For example, I can wear floral prints that have green leaves with purple and pink flowers. The flower have yellow or orange middles, so that's another color. This means that each time I wear that bold floral, I can choose one of those colors to accent. Because of the different color combinations, it means so many different outfits.
Hi Justine, I was just looking thru your channel today thinking have I missed your latest video? and here it is just a few hours after 😊 guess I missed you 🧡 thanks in advance for the guide ✔️💯
Ahhh we missed you, so happy you posted one today 😊! I noticed that neutral colors are worn in a lot of K-drama shows and they look nice on them, maybe it could be their pale complexion; although they also incorporate colors and accessories that’s why it’s working out fine. But small important tweaks makes HUGE difference, thanks for the reminder. Hope you’re having a great sommer 😊
Dear Justine. Thank you for these valuable tips. I was mesmerised by your beautiful lipstick. Would you be kind enough to let me know what it is please? It’s such a stunning colour and sheen.

Great tips. But I'm 81 and becoming more sensitive to style that refers to looking older. I quite like my age. And in truth, none of your tips refer to age. They are more about being contemporary. I absolutely want to look contemporary! When I'm on the subway, I look at how people dress to see what I might like to try. It's a lot of fun! Many ideas are clearly for younger bodies. I love looking at them without wanting to wear them. But I might see an idea that would be great on any body, even an old lady 😅. Something more contemporary. I choose to think when you refer to not looking older, you mean looking "now". Alight. I'm going to go and download that style guide now. Love your videos
Thank you so much for sharing your comment.
I love your attitude! 💕
The reality is: if you're rich and famous, your bags are seen as a sign of success. If you are just an ordinary worker working a 9-to-5 job, your real bag is likely to be *gtdupe*

If you want a designer purse, pinch your pennies for as long as it takes to buy one. But don't assume someone with a bargain basement bag is less successful. Or that people will think you aren't successful because you have a bargain basement knock-off.

I got maybe 20 good years left if I’m blessed. I am going bold and bright, like a star in the night sky.
Ha ha Swedish women in their 20's: only black. Swedish women in their 60's: Gudrun Sjödén.

I smile when I watch your videos. It’s like talking to a friend ❤
Justine, thank you for yet another interesting video. I enjoy such videos but often feel left out. I spend most of my time in a wheelchair. Two aspects are a, you become invisible and, b, any clothes which look good when standing lose their impact when sitting. Last weekend I attended a wedding, many emails went around the family about what family members were wearing. I didn’t share the excitement as I felt no one would notice anyway.

I used to enjoy wearing muted colours, much to my husband’s frustration, but now I concentrate on brighter clothes to help my visibility. I always choose looser clothing as I struggle to get dressed and to handle fasteners. Also sitting means my abdomen is at its most and I need to allow for arm/shoulder movement when propelling myself. The dress I made moved beautifully when on and I was sorry it would not be seen in its glory but I still felt its beauty. You know that feeling new, just right clothing practically makes you strut? Well, you can still strut when sitting in that I sat tall and proud and not my usual weary posture. The dress was fully lined with a more jewel like hue and I understitched the lining in the opposite direction, in that the lining edged the neck and sleeve lines. I really liked how the lining and main fabric worked together so wanted to highlight the effect. One of my usual choices is to layer a lot of my clothes. As my clothes don’t get seen moving I like to highlight different types/colours/finishes etc. Writing this has helped me notice how much fun I do get when playing with my clothes, and I am thankful how well my Grandmother taught me to sew. A complete turn about in mood - I think I love being different. Thank you.

I have worked on my posture, strength and gait to move gracefully over short distances. My 3 style words are Visible, Engaging and Confident as I work with children. I embrace classic comfortable, effortless clothes in my preferred colour palette of jewel tones with proportions that flatter my body type. My favourite accessory is a smile coupled with eye contact. We have no reason to recede into the corners as we still have much to offer in life.
@@barbarak2836 thank you
You are wearing the Armed Angels Dress of the Summer! I sell it in my boutique here in Canada. I try to only stock ethically made clothes--a challenge that I gladly take on. I have always loved your content, for your natural intelligence and class shine through everything you do.
A great reminder of basic principles. I think the real issue is not necessarily looking older, but frumpy or out of date. I see so many women my age wearing out of date outfits (think cropped pants and printed tops) that would look amazing with a more polished and up to date style. You can remain comfortable in your clothes without giving up on style. Thanks Justine.
Hi Justine, your suggestions are great but in the case of marking the waist, not all of us can do it, I'm tall but I have a short torso, marking the waist doesn't look good. Can you make a video with suggestions for those who don't have the waist on the right place ?
@@teresa1536 Your waist IS on THE RIGHT place. It's more about what people CONSIDER harmonious proportions. You could try to add a nice long scarf or a small cross body bag to give a different accent to your outfit.
@@ilonaniinemae4735 Thanks for the suggestions Ilona
cropped pants and prunted tops are out-of-date? Really? I guess I really don't care!!
Frederique uploaded a video yesterday stating we can’t wear shorts then showed a photo of of long shorts and cropped pants. Nothing screams old lady like cropped pants unless you pair them with a form fitting top
My mother always said the exact same thing to me that you quote from Chanel - that before you go out, look in your mirror and take something off (obviously accessories, not knickers!)
Hah!
😂
Why not 😂
obviously 😁😉
Depends where you're going ;-)
Justine, you're a gem amongst fashion youtubers! Always logical, to the point, with lots of context and underlying information, I adore your work.Thank you.
I love my palazzo linen pants with matching full linen shirts/tops. I feel comfortable (in 90°F temp), chic and quiet elegant
I wish I had that experience! In linen pants and a full linen shirt I am hot as hell in that tempreature weather. Linen and silk, even worse. What is your secret?
Justine, I’m 73 and my wardrobe is as you suggest. Being short I find that monochromatic look helps me look taller. I love neutrals but also love color so I too usually add harmonious color to any neutral while still keeping it fairly monochromatic, tricky, right? My problem now is that might lifestyle is retired but I still like to dress. I just don’t have anywhere to go, LOL. So I dress up to go to the store, any store. it makes me feel good. Thank you
I do the same! I have all these 'occasion' clothes, and it's nice to just wear them
@@sarahwatts7152 I totally agree. If it makes you smile and feel pretty dressed up for the day then wear it. I do that too. I have friends that will ask where are you going? No where, I just feel like dressing up
I love u Justine.
Wanted to mention that as a Bangladeshi American woman, I value the minimalist style for its simplicity abd ease. However, having grown up with a rich and diverse and colorful literally, southasians have adorned gorgeous mixture of patterns and colors, fabrics and cuts. I notice the sa.e with African prints and also appreciate our beautiful heritage of vibrancy.
Thanks for sharing your perspective, its always a treat to watch you explain things.
Fantastic tips!! 🙌 Some things I also advocate for are:
1) Gradually getting used to bolder colours with baby steps. Maybe a medium periwinkle, lavender, cherry, or cornflower blue for example. Start small and get used to seeing yourself in that colour first, and then go brighter.
2) One signature accessory in a bright colour to also ease into the transition. An eye-catching scarf, pair of gloves, or handbag can really change the whole vibe of an outfit.
3) Make it a point to look at the people around you on a typical day out, and/or fashion accounts online. If you see an outfit that you love on someone else but hadn't considered for yourself, then use that as inspiration to build an outfit to suit your body type.
Justine, I have followed you for several years now, and I have learned so much! Thank you for your smile, and your fresh, straightforward style!
Wow, thank you!
Videos like this remind me why you are the only fashion channel that I follow. Your knowledge, experience, and accessibility are unmatched. I have tried others and have to turn off when they simply say one look is "better" with no explanation as to how or why. You back up your reasons with educated knowledge. I look forward to reading the pdf, thank you!! 💕
thank you for the kind words!!
Looking beautiful and positively glowing Mademoiselle Justine! Speaking of even if it's not en vogue I wore Neon Green yesterday as I really enjoy the light that it reflects and how it makes my Skin look, especially around my face. It may not be for everyone, but I like how Bold and Vivid it is and it makes me feel happy! xo
Enjoy your advice - so succinct and practical. Now I am in my 70's I avoid patterns apart from stripes, dots or plaid. It makes such a difference to 'not looking old'!
I do wear geometric paterned scarves at times.
Justine, I adore you! Every idea and video is implanted in my head. You’re my style icon with your fresh, minimal lines, concentrating on color,fabric and fit. I’ve learned so much from you. About the neutrals, my mother was a classic fashion plate. She knew which designer fit her petite frame therefore always looking great. I was chubby when she dazzled, so there was little point emulating her at that time. While all my friends shopped at “Collegiate Shop”, I had to go to…are you ready….”The Chubbette Shop” 😮! My self esteem was beaten down to nonexistence lol. No problem. I’m 107 lbs now. Regarding neutrals, a woman at a design house told her :
“Nothing screams money louder than beige.” For the right occasion, I go to beige for no other reason than to showcase my jewelry. No, it’s not Cartier. Lol. Thanks again, Justine. I appreciate every video. 🙏🪷❤️
The only print I find to be timeless is geometric prints.
My goodness, I had no Idea Justine is almost 6' tall, a model for sure, beautiful and nice to see someone who has not been persuaded to cut off long hair.
Up until recently almost everything for plus size women (like me) was all big, huge prints in garish colors. It doesn't so much work if you're also petite like me. Thankfully I've found good clothing in neutrals and pastels as well as moderate and small patterns. Also, the boxy + fitted is really great - I like to do, for example, a boxy blazer with a fitted blouse and fitted trousers, or wide-leg trousers with a fitted blouse and fitted cardigan. Always great advice here!
I learned in design school that using colors next to each other on the color wheel is called an analogous color scheme - not clashing. 🤔😁 I would associate the word clashing with a contrasting color scheme - green/red, purple/yellow, blue/orange. Nice take on this topic! And thank you so much for the guide! 😀
Colours may have charts & wheels etc; but, although I am a watercolour artist & paint to make my work sellable, my colours in dress are chosen to co-ordinate & make me feel comfortable. If other people don't like it = tough !
Love how you share your knowledge Justine, without any hidden purpose of selling anything. This is precious, thank you so much❤
My seamstress has a great trick for the waist: she hides elastic on the sides, so my clothes adapt to "changes". So the skirt looks structured, but it is very comfortable.
The small gold earrings I bought from you before seem very modern and timeless too. I still enjoy them. Thank you for creating them and making them available.
Body skimming clothings is always a win, regardless of the size of the body. Oversized and tight clothing tend to look frumpy on everyone. People need to wear clothing in their true size, shoulder fitting and waist definition is important and is the main culprit for looking frumpy
You are absolutely right. It is difficult to find the right size and cut but when you do It...❤
This is good advice.
Guess that’s okay if you have a waist.
Not true, you're probably stuck in a confirmation bias, try to look for the opposite for awhile and you'll be amazed how your perception changes.
I agree for my body shape. I love shift dresses. I look hideous in loose Boho clothing, much as I love it.
Please post more frequently. I love your content!
Love the tip about wearing one fitted and one not piece. Your tips are so practical.
Justine, I love, love, love all your work! You deliver with enthusiasm and care and never patronise or make people feel bad. Keep up the great work!
thank you!!
Most of the time, "Less is more." Thank you.
RIP Iris Apfel, amazing style.
A minute to the video had to pause and say that you look FF fabulous and fresh your tan is stunning!!!
thank you. When re-watching the edited video, I actually wondered why my hands looked so brown/tanned outside and so white/pink inside - I thought the color correction was wrong in the video. But no, that's just my best summer tan in years ;-) Yay!
Excellent guidance. I especially appreciated the graphics showing how to combine colors and/or prints. Thank you!
Great advices as always but for the prints I partly agree: I'd say there are just a few that are timeless: small polka dots, stripes and tiny flowers... You see them always around and they are accepted for smart casual and more relaxed casual looks too😊
Always happy to have a Justine video! Thank you!
Your adjectives to describe clothes are a joy to hear and they really help me make better choices when I go to create my wardrobe
Thank you for your free advice! I did notice in the timeless fashion PDF, that my body type was left out; a flat board turned into a barrel over time! Over the decades, what with gravity, diet, and forty years at a “desk-job”, my darn stomach has almost equaled my breast measurements and hip measurements. I’m 5’ 3” and 130 ponds, so I don’t feel I’m overweight, but I sure look it. I’ve tried the belt and tucking the front of the shirt into the pants front, but, on me, it still looks frumpy. As I rarely leave my home, it’s just me I’m trying to please, so for the most part, I’m embracing the “frump”! (I still wear my rings everyday with gemstones color coordinated with my outfit. It makes me happy. I can still wear the aquamarine ring my mom gave me for my 16th birthday) Thanks for all you do ! Love your ring collection
Empire line (fitted around/under the bust, which is your slimmest point, then flowing outward) or A-line (shaped like the letter) clothes might work for you.
@@dreamer6943 thanks. I appreciate the tip! I wore dresses in that style, back in the day….when a was a board!
Merci, Justine! Clear, sound, practical advice as usual, & following it doesn't necessarily require buying scads of new clothes & jewelry. I like that you couch it in terms of modernizing, updating styles rather than focusing on age & youth. (Beautiful cameos by Iris Apfel & Jennifer Lawrence!) As a petite, not-so-tall woman, I will be thrilled when boxy styles start receding. Too often it seems like lazy, cheap design: don't bother to consider the body wearing it, just make it a flat, wide box & it'll fit everyone! One last note, nothing to do with today's video, but I want you to know that I absolutely love my crossbody bag! Love.
Oh your comment about your JL handbag 😍 Glad you're enjoying your purchase!!
Very helpful video. Sadly, Iris Apfel passed away in March.
RIP Iris.. she’s such an inspiration for me. I hope to dress as fun and bold as her when I’m in my latter decades ❤
Your jewelry line is beautiful! I love silver pieces but find it a challenge to care for. A video on how to care for it would be wonderful (ideally easy). 😊
Silver jewelry that is WORN doesn't tarnish. It only tarnishes & turns black if you don't wear it regularly! ❤
@@NotARussianBot999This is wrong. Silver jewellery turns dark even with everyday use. I’m talking about actual silver instead of silver-coloured mimics. That’s why i have stopped wearing them now.
Tarnishing is inevitable with silver but you can slow it down. I only wear sterling silver because everything else irritates my skin, and I've found it tarnishes more when exposed to the air (I live in a coastal region so maybe that adds to it). I have lots of earrings and hang them up on boards, so what I did was I put the boards into large plastic ziplock bags and keep them sealed. Other jewellery that doesn't hang up, I keep in clear plastic boxes that are closed. It's not pretty like a fancy box would be but it takes much longer now for them to tarnish plus they don't get dusty. I also got a proper silver polishing cloth from a jeweller and use it if they start looking a bit darker.
@molamolalaaa2968 I have a sterling silver ring I put on at least 10 years ago. It has never tarnished. 10 years of constant wear. Beach, swimming pool, washing dishes. Same with the silver ring i have had for 8 months and not taken off. The ones I don't wear every day tarnish. A few rubs and a day of wearing and everything is polished.
I did a blog post about how to care for jewelry, it's on my website :-)
Just realised today that I’ll remember this summer season as the time I discovered LINEN KNITS. Such a life saver, both biologically and stylistically. I also found two cardigans in knitted hemp. The best part? All of them Japanese brands, but thrifted!!😊
Great tips! It's amazing how small changes can make such a big difference in how we look and feel. Thanks for the easy fixes - definitely going to try them out!
Thank you for yet another helpful video! I am turning 40 this year and notice how my body changes. Style is an individual expression, but I feel much younger than I look. So I would be very grateful for more creative impulses from you about style & age ❤
Thanks Justine! Your efforts are wonderful and valuable for this 70 y.o. grandma.
These are amazing tips and I agree with all of them. For me, there is one exception when it comes to too much jewelry. I love it when jewelry is layered very richly, but only when it is about ethic diversity. Think African, South American or Middle Eastern beading - it can be really big and bold, but still looking progressive and very cool (or very sexy, depending on what you're going for).
I tend to wear neutrals, say black pants and cardigan,not clingy to the body, but I wear a swirled design fitted top that has tiny bits of black in it. I tend to wear very little jewelry, like a bracelet and earrings only. Thats because I follow your advice. I have received numerous compliments, thanks to you!!!!
OMG...eeek. I'm a linen person lol. And I love my pajamas. Do love colour however....but still stuck largely on black...with a colour occasionally. My excuse is, I'm old. Lovely to see you. Hope your refurbishment is going well.
Black linen is gorgeous and I love them too! Large areas of black paired with a small patch of color makes that small dose of color much more vibrant and beautiful
I think it depends on context, where i live linen is mostly worn by people aged 20-35, and it's in neutral tones. 60+ are the ones wearing bright colors and bold prints (maybe because they were young in the 80s when those colors became really popular, if we go by Justine's logic)!
My mom is in her 70s and has Justine's coloring, but more pale. She wore pastels in the 1960s,but now a lot of red and white. She looks fresh and cute. I am more olive and genx and wear more muted greens. Though i have integrated dusty orange, deep purple and turquoise. More saturated but not bright.
Matching jewellery sets are like matching furniture sets in the living room or bedroom. The advantage with jewellery sets is that you can wear one or two of the pieces, not all. It's harder to do that with furniture!
I feel like my grandmother in the 90s did wear a lot of neutrals but also that today’s 60ish crowd goes for a lot of zebra print and rhinestone appliqué.
The late Iris Apfel was my absolute style superstar. She was the archetypical "Eccentric Aunty."
definitely!
Il y a quelque chose de très apaisant dans tes vidéos, merci!
This is great advice , I like neutral colors with a little color not large prints.
I like the fact the you always go straight to the point.
Iris was an icon. She looked amazing! RIP❣️
Thanks Justine for free Timeless PDF
When I studied Communication Design, we had to learn, that not just the product we present needs to be good, the presentation needs to look good, our invoices, our email signatures - since this is what we get paid to do. Our clients come to us for design, so everything we present to the world in our name, needs to have our signature. There were times I spent 3 hours on writing a simple invoice until I went to a more automated system (but still spent 3+ hours creating my templates there, too ; ) But now that i have it, its a 15min thing ) - what i am longwindedly saying here: This is something I appreciate about you. Your 'brand' is fashion: elegant, sustainable, personal, polished, conscious. And this reflects in everything you do and present. From the articles you write to your newsletter. We notice - maybe subconsciously. All that extra work is worth it and is something i deeply appreciate about you.
(And I also think of the cobbler having the worst shoes. My business cards looked horrible first semester graphic design artsy because it took ages to finally tackle my own CI : D by now I did. Either for 'serious clients' or for 'fun clients')
thank you very much. It's super interesting to read these adjectives about how you perceive my aesthetics across platforms and media. I do find it incredibly hard to make the words and the images (videos) match. We don't learn to apply one's aesthetics to video, in fashion school: we learn only to describe our work visually (through static images aka mood boards, through texture, fabrics, volumes and colours), and with words. In video, the challenge of the technical know-how comes on top (esp. because I don't hire a professional agency to film me, I do it myself) - I can see that my videos have improved with time, but I feel they still don't have the look they should have in order for them to look the way I want to (and I've published over 300 videos...). But since you work in design as well, you surely experience this too: it's all still work in progress even though from an outside perspective, it already kind of fits together. That's why I don't believe in "talent", "genius" and this kind of thing. Clearly, what makes creatives stand out is much more training one's eye, practicing one's craft, reflecting on the result and then repeating that process again and again. There's a theory about needing 10,000 hours in order to reach mastery in any field (can't remember whose theory this was) but I find that this number doesn't even come close!
On a side note, I am always surprised, when I learn that a channel I've been watching for a long time hired an editor... usually it improves the work and those people can do more of what they really want to do. The editor usually has such a strong voice, too and I am always amazed if the transition is seamless. That's a craft with ??? for me.
I like you and your channel. I've already enjoyed countless things, learned many others, but I think the world belongs to everyone. And everyone has the right to have their opinion validated, and to dress how they feel best, to be able to express themselves without fear, to have their space to be themselves. It is not possible for other people to determine how we should dress, and silence our will, our values, our personal tastes. We don't all need to come in the same way. We can be free, we should fight for freedom. Still, thank you for so many good things you teach us.
Justine, I love your presentation! So knowledgeable and relatable at the same time! A 62 year old fan.
Hi and thank you for the pdf reference on timeless wardrobes.
I always think when I see queen Camilla that she is someone who understands who she is and what her body style is, or her designers do. I always think she looks very nice. She is someone I look to for inspiration.
Also I like the Advanced Style and StyleCrone ladies. They are not afraid to put eclectic things together. I love that.
I always appreciate your content and joyful spirit in the delivery! Thanks so much for the free download, too. I enjoy subscribing to your channel and learn so much from you. Keep smiling and designing beautiful pieces! 👜📿
I love wearing jewel tones, but all that's in stores anymore is neutrals. I pointed out to my husband how every store just has black, white, and beige, and now he mentions it every time we are somewhere that sells clothes - it's like once you see it, you can't unsee it. But I also think at least the first couple "don'ts" around fit and color are actually what's in style right now for Gen Z and young millennials. I (elder millennial) feel like my fitted pieces and brighter colors are dating me when I'm with younger colleagues 😆🙃
Yes! I look so bad in black, gray, navy. But most of the time those are the only options. Where are the greens and purples??
@@radbu1075 try Joe Browns (where I get my autumnal colours from) or Me&Em (where I go for neutrals because their jewel colours don't suit me)
Yes!! I actually just thrifted a bunch of jewel tone tops bc I got tired of trying to find my right colors in stores.
Chico’s has some beautiful jewel tone shirts
Just a petite note to say that I love reading your newsletter and that I will follow your advice on books and movies. I love deeper things too ❤ Je te souhaite un super été!
It's such a delight to see you videos. Like a fresh air . Thank you ❤
I always learn so much about style and fashion from your videos. I also love your reviews of fashions shows and I never miss your Met Gala rankings! Thank you. And thank you for your timeless tips guide. They are timeless.
Re timeless prints, happy to say I’m still wearing my tiered Souleiado skirt which I have owned for 45 years !! Still selling in the store…Price has literally been multiplied by 100 😮
that brand has become so expensive vs. when I was growing up it was quite an affordable local brand, from my region...
@@justineleconte I have just looked on their website and the tiered jupon is just the most expensive item they sell ! It uses a lot of fabric but still.
On the subject of forever clothes, there are a lot : trenches, Barbour, cabans, breton tops, striped popeline shirts, 100% coton straight jeans, made in Scotland sweaters whether camel hair, cashmere, geelong, Shetland…. Some Liberty fabrics such as strawberry thief.
I remember the diamond tray *gtdupe* almost all the bags from the jag line in the apartment. I think I watched that video 30 times. Purse collection goals
I find I look bright in a good shade of brown. I used to be a very bright redhead, I suit autumn colours. I like to add either a bright accessory or a patterned something in matching colours. Strange to say it can look quite bright if put together well. We are all unique.
Thanks for the belt idea because it is so hot (34-36 C) and humid that linen is my best friend. At the grocery last night, I did kind of feel like I was in lounge mode. Black now makes me look dead half of the year so I only have a pair of black pants, a button up shirt, a top, a pair of all purpose flats, a tailored raincoat, and that is it. I have taken advantage of the blues, greens, teals, wine colors, and tomato that have been popular over the past year and work really well with my hair and skin coloring. I am kind of a fabric junky, and I like a well designed pattern, but I have really reined myself in to items that work well with multiple solid pants and jackets and that make me happy when I see them. For the first time in more than a decade, I am beginning to have a wardrobe that has a lot of mix and match options, livens up my skin and hair, and makes it fun to get dressed. I can’t wait to see your guide and get more tips for improvement.
Justine I have to say you have always very thoughtful and alluring video ideas! the easy fixes makes this video actually more helpful than just saying what doesn´t look good. Always a pleasure to watch :)
Justine, what are you wearing? Is it top or dress? Its perfect!!!💚
I fail to observe “older generations wearing neutrals” , I observe the opposite trend - brighter hues , bolder jewellery and ballsy shoes.
I think this can vary a lot by country.
Yes, and all the rhinestones on the hats 🙂
Love this. I would love to see a video from you about men's fashion! I'm a trans man in my late twenties, and I have so much trouble finding clothes that aren't either too young or too old (or too boring 😭). I still love fashion as a man, and now that I'm transitioning and starting to love my body, I don't want to dress it in khaki trousers and patterned button ups forever!!
I put my earrings and necklaces into sets and photo them. I can easily decide which set to wear with outfits or to take for traveling. Sets are designed to match in metal and scale (mire dominant necklace to pair with smaller earrings for example). With or without earrings and necklace I wear stack rings and staking bracelets or bangles daily. I love slim rings stacked and I love 2 or 3 bracelets on each wrists. I put pins on my hats and bags often. I don’t care what others think of me wearing loads of jewelries. It’s my signature whenever i am out of door, regardless if i wear tee and jeans or a dress.
The way Justine says tummy makes me smile ❤
Thank you Justine. I love your videos, perspective and sharing of knowledge. As a British woman in her later life you always brighten my day and improve my self-esteem and joy in life. Many blessings to you ❤
Thank you for those tips! You look great in black BTW ❤
Hey Justine~ Thank you… this was interesting!
All my life I have dressed the same - for comfort, and I doubt my style will change now: floor-length well-fitted skirt (very occasionally pants with a similar silhouette) with larger and / or relaxed longer plain top with accessories. I rarely take any accessory off - earrings, necklaces or scarf, watch and bracelets on left wrist, rings on my right thumb and one finger on my left hand. There is always something that ties each piece to at least one other piece. Given I am usually thought to be much younger than I am, it seems I’m not aging myself.
One thing I want to try to do, it makes more sense to me now, is a piece in a print with a piece in a graphic (dots, stripes, etc.) print. I also loved the color discussions.
I think I’ll go watch this video again… once was not enough…. 😉
Absolutely precious advice! Love your style and your videos!
Agree on all except the one avout neutrals. All neutrals can be very fresh when worn right!
Thank you! It is such a pleasure to watch your videos. Always very applicable and well-made. It would be nice to see updates on the house as well if you do not mind sharing.
I love prints because I feel like I can go with one print and pull out the solid colors I want, depending on which day. For example, I can wear floral prints that have green leaves with purple and pink flowers. The flower have yellow or orange middles, so that's another color. This means that each time I wear that bold floral, I can choose one of those colors to accent. Because of the different color combinations, it means so many different outfits.
Thank you very much for the free guide, Justine! I 🙂 I enjoyed hearing that story about your grandmother. Have a wonderful day. ❤
I so love your videos! You give fashion advice in such an accessible way, and I always seem to learn something new from you.
I love your videos soooooo much. I will definitely be grabbing your PDF, thank you so much. I wish there were more people out here like you.
Thank you for sharing your experience, Justine!!
Thank you Justine! I'm a huge fan. I've learned alot from you
Thanks Justine. Very well organized ideas as usual. 😊
Hi Justine, I was just looking thru your channel today thinking have I missed your latest video? and here it is just a few hours after 😊
guess I missed you 🧡
thanks in advance for the guide ✔️💯
Merci Justine
Ahhh we missed you, so happy you posted one today 😊! I noticed that neutral colors are worn in a lot of K-drama shows and they look nice on them, maybe it could be their pale complexion; although they also incorporate colors and accessories that’s why it’s working out fine. But small important tweaks makes HUGE difference, thanks for the reminder. Hope you’re having a great sommer 😊
I totally agree with the caution ⛔️ about patterns
Once again, so much valuable information in a brief video. Brilliant, thanks Justine.
Dear Justine. Thank you for these valuable tips. I was mesmerised by your beautiful lipstick. Would you be kind enough to let me know what it is please? It’s such a stunning colour and sheen.
It's Russian Red by MAC
Hope you present some outfit pictures to explain your color combination.
Thank you ma'am.
Have you ever thought of writing a book for fashion for woman 40 +. I would totally buy it. I love your videos and your advice!
The top you are wearing is very nice. Can you please share more details, what' s the brand and where to buy it, pls ? 🙏🙂
Love your suggestions but I wish you showed more pictures with samples of what you’re referring to. I am very visual 😂 thanks for your great advices
Thank you for another great video. I am curious about your top - where can i get one?
Thank you for all your tips 👏 I really enjoy your videos 💕
