For me there is simply no one better than Trinny to inspire me to look at my wardrobe differently and try out new ways to wear things. Trinny you make my creative juices flow!!!!
What I loved about my 70’s boho style was the fabric and imagination.There were so many beautiful fabrics and unusual pieces around whereas these days, many fashion items are like uniforms. Unless one has the luxury of plenty of money, vintage shops are the best place to find some unique pieces. Trinny seems to have clothes and accessories to suit every look and occasion and her Closet Confessions are always fun to watch.🥰
Absolutely adored this Video. We all have clothes in our Wardrobes that we can bring them up to date. Boho for example, they were worn original way back in the Day. You showed us how to bring them into 2023. Using what you have and giving them a new life.
Always a real pleasure to see Trinny go through her incredible wardrobe and pieces and put outfits together so easily, the outfits are always spot on and so well put together 🤩 Never missed one Closet confessions !
The white outfit I could see Bianca Jagger wearing. I love Boho but can never get it 'right' now I'm bigger. It was my go-to in the 70's and I was a skinny minny 😆 My extra large chest makes the dresses hang strange.....wish I could go back to my skinny days, ahh well 😌 x
Yes please a summer boho look 😊and agree with the comment yours Trinny is a modern take on boho and so you .........which makes it refreshing and interesting to see 💛💙💚
When you put the black velvet Cape over the black evening dress I immediately got Stevie Nicks vibes. I love Stevie. Then we moved to the all white ensemble which reminded me of Bianca Jagger
I would love for this sector of Closet Confessions to continue with other styles! You break them down to their elements in a way that really makes sense and is easy to identify in my wardrobe!
My favorite Closet Confessions ever!! This is the style that I’ve most aspired to my whole life! The one thing missing was a low slung belt here and there… and maybe an organic farm in the background, lol. Also late 60’s/early 70’s was VERY different than late 70’s.
Here's a tip of what not to do: don't cull your wardrobe in the throes of a darkness of the soul. Last year I gave away so many coats, including my favourite spring wool vintage one. Seeing Trinny bring out a coat that resembles my old one inspires me to find another. I'm sure there's one in a charity shop or consignment store somewhere.
I feel you! I got rid of a heavenly Paul Smith full length wool coat years ago and I miss it so much. There are so many times I know it would be perfect. What was I thinking 🤬
Ooh yes please, I’d love to see architectural minimalist too!! That sounds so chic and possible to replicate with pieces from our own wardrobes!?Thank you for another inspiring video !! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Just bought the Massimo Dutti fringe cream blouse. It’s ON SALE! Got it as a gift for my 60th birthday, which is tomorrow 🎉. You just made my day lovely Trinny, you’re so inspiring ❤
Thanks for choosing this one Trinny...I think I am naturally a Boho dresser and I don't think there always had to be so much pattern, long thin scarves and plenty of beads, with funky earrings can make even plain black flares and a top look boho.
The 70’s and 90’s are my favourite style decades. I was born in 1970 so that brings back childhood memories of the music and relaxed cool vibe, and then the fun of going to nightclubs and power dressing during the 90’s. I enjoy bringing the two together with current “trends”. I’d like to see androgynous and high low outfits that can take you anywhere. 🥰
This was so helpful- I often find it costum-y or too beachy when I want to wear boho. I love that you gave a contemporary and city way to interpret boho pieces! Idea: Trinny's analysis of what I've been seeing and buying a bit of: Silly Fashion. I'm in my 50s, but am drawn to and find joy in some of this trend. Would love your help to avoid incorporating it badly. Great job as always, Trinny & Team.
I think it would be so, so cool to have Trinny to recreate and update the looks from her school runs with Lyla from 10-12 years ago. How to do current “mom” looks, that are stylish, but practical? (And honestly, I know a lot of grandmothers follow Trinny, and this goes for them, as well, since grandmothers also spend time with active kids.
Boho is short for bohemian, and that isn't just about the seventies. In the seventies though, 'boho' borrowed from other decades, definitely the twenties and art movements like the Pre-Raphaelites. Boho can definitely be dark, and wear black, I think it is about romance and an idea of mysticism.
This is the first time I'm disappointed with a Trinny video. Boho is not just about Woodstock and some of her clashing prints look like an exaggeration of the hippie style. The black evening look, surprisingly, was the most Boho looking of her outfits.
I love playing in Trinnys closet! So generous of you! What I kept hearing was gold with boho and that makes sense with the 70’s palate. The psychedelic sequin pants was great with both coats! Another fun masterpiece girls!!
I literally squealed when I saw the title - and the outfit with the green jacket 🤩🤩. I'm so grateful for you sharing this video. Boho in your late 40's can look very Very uncool. I loove this lookbook that you have put together. Thank you
Trinny. I’d love to play in your wardrobe. You’d be the best friend to play with. Also. “Like you’ve slept in your hair” is a great phrase 😊 Plus “ you are really seeing the best in these items aren’t you Trinny “ is like saying interesting, most ppl would think they are horrible but you can find good features in them 😂. Love love LOVE all your vids 😊
Ok, one of your best best best CCs-utterly inspiring, each idea a joy. Please please do part B for summer! Absolutely loved this, and, as ever, confounded why people don’t embrace pattern more. Would love love a ‘sexy’ CC, another vintage one, and what about an updated ‘80s CC at some stage. I abhor ‘80s fashion but would be so cool to see it modernised and made cool in some way? x
I would love some ideas on how to wear harem pants. I loved this video, amazing as always. I love your modern approach to the subject. You are giving us a starting point but developing it towards a modern look.
Hi, thanks so much for all the closet confessions! I have the hardest time knowing which height of boot or booties to match with length of skirt, the same with crop pants and shoes. Could you do a video about that? please 🙂
Loved the boho vibe as inspiration for my 50th year high school reunion this fall. Desperately need help with my mother of the groom’s outfit without the big hat and matron’s look.
Architectural minimalist please. Also, will we see Azusana's makeovers of you outfits from the Fall or did I miss that episode? I love seeing her alterations.
I like that you put pretty dresses (like Zimmermann ) get boho inspired from it but mix with coat or jacket to make it look a bit tougher/ modern. I usually wear dresses with prints and embroideries but sometimes I don't want it to be too boho. I just want to toughen and modern it up for the office. This video inspired me to try a few things. Can you please do more on how to mix different styles eg. Boho and modern , romantic and how to rough it up? Thank you 😍
Damn! Why did I DECLUTTER!! Now I’m thinking what’s wrong with my wardrobe and realizing I miss boho! I’ve forgotten the reason for prints! Great video yes please for more. And that black little dress! Can’t wait for sexy💞💞💞
We live in South Africa - hot humid most of the year - so we wear a lot of long loose cotton or linen or viscose dresses with wedges or trainers. Now I'm wondering if dressing for our weather looks like we are stuck in a 70s vibe - tips to modernise without big coats please 🙂
🤩 OMG. Trinny's collection is A-MAZING. Major coat envy, but my 🌄LA climate cannot justify splurging 💰 in that direction (2nd-hand or not) either. I just would NEVER get the 💲cost per wear out of them. Plus, I'm at max closet coat capacity. Strict one in, one out rule on jackets🤣. ☀️I can relate to your climate dilemma. 🙃Thankfully, we generally get dry heat 🏜 over moist💧humidity here, but I still found I can stand my alternatives under more hot, humid conditions. 😊Always liked a 3rd piece or topper, but it MUST be feather light option. Something that leans slightly more viscose, absorbant &/or breathable under pressure. 🔍 I source short waistcoats as a light topper. Prefer the ones w/o buttons, bcos I generally leave them open over my top anyway. I can sometimes do a light menswear suiting material w/o melting, but I also look for silky or satiny options. 🤔I also think in terms of long, lean, light gilets (made out of a soft breathable fabric like a cotton or rayon blend). They can span from hip to thigh to floor length. Look for something that gives the same soft drapey impression. Simply add a 🆒️ print pop vs excessive texture (which can be a no-go weight wise🥵). Avoid suede, but sometimes I can find a light & fluttery fringe a viable option as a topper. Some crochet pieces can absolutely be a gossamer 🕷spidery 🕸 light layer. Trinny proves how a traditional gilets can add a 🎸70s glam rock spin. I just avoid the more weighted glorious garments once the mercury🌡goes up . Instead, I have hip & thigh length gilets in a variety of check▪️▫️, vertical pin-stripe ⏸️ , & animal🐾 patterns. Also gifted a mod 🖌abstract patterned duster gilet. This extra length adds maximum drama✨️. All these printed pieces fall within my color palette. 😎They add interest over a solid base as a topper w/o 😓 compounding heat, my fluctuating hormones, or adding any sensory discomfort. I also 👀 suss out sleeveless button front dresses for their versatility as a "gilet" layer. Preferably ones w/a slim, straight silhouette, but fit & flare can sometimes work👌. Even classic shirt waist dresses can serve as a topper piece. I don't mind long, flowy sleeves in the latter style that I can cuff or roll up. A button up shirt can also function as a topper piece in some cases. It depends on the hem style. If I want a decided gap in front (that is also lengthening & slimming), I size under ⬇️ for that best "vest" effect. Otherwise, I try to control ➡️volume⬅️ best as I can in the rear. In an uber light-weight CA style trench coat, I tie the sash🎀 in back to keep it light, more minimal, & open in front. 🤭Considering removing the sleeves on some suitably light, thrifted trenches to get that gilet impression. 😉In the 90s, they sold small elastic accessories w/clips on each end that you could use to corral excess volume in back. They added more waist definition on your garments too. Frankly, the only jeans 👖 I can stand are cut-offs ✂️. I can glam them up w/a floor length gilet. It's flowy〰️provides more UV (& thigh🤫) protection in back〰️while it amps up drama⚡️. Gives a boho festival look w/more of a 👁👁peek-a-boo sexy in front. (I can swap shorts for a body-con t-shirt dress or pencil skirt.) Pair daisy dukes w/⬇️below the ankle 🤠 cowboy booties. Or, switch to hip trainers👟. (My feet blister if you look sidewise at them🥺〰️sandals only work as slippers or when standing around. 😬Need shoes I can wear "naked" socks at a minimum. Loafers & oxfords. Prefer ankle boots in general👍 for added pizazz. 🙄Tall boots have a much shorter shelf life for me {& typically aren't worth the investment}. 🤍Can do a classic espadrille wedge. 🚶♀️My sneaker collection is off the hook. They are a staple. 😚Can't resist them in a variety of styles & soles.) 🤗Find racks of denim dresses here in charity shops. They are usually light-weight enough as well as adding a 🆒️ texture. Unlike a jeans jacket that strikes me as too ⚓️heavy and structured😔, it's possible for me to wear a sleeveless denim dress as a gilet year round 🔄 here too. 🙋♀️Encourage you to experiment w/untraditional toppers. It can be trial & error to find one that pleases you on all points (incl. style & comfort). 💚Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)
Hi Trinny, longtime viewer - first time commenter :) Where can I find the "mad coat" (grey/yellow/turquoise aztec cardigan) or equivalent? I've been meaning to ask since the first time I saw it in one of your videos. Absolutely LOVE it! Thanks and keep on style-rocking, you're truly an inspiration!
As a busy mum spending the weekends at my kids football matches I feel I've lost my style spending most weekends in sports leggings & trainers 🤮 would love to see options for how to dress for these in a stylish warm way!

For me there is simply no one better than Trinny to inspire me to look at my wardrobe differently and try out new ways to wear things.
Trinny you make my creative juices flow!!!!
I couldn’t agree more !
YES Trinny please do a video on Architectural Minimalist and deconstructed essential pieces.
I can never have too many travel tutorials! How to pack for maximum style with minimal space (and not get bored with what you brought).
What I loved about my 70’s boho style was the fabric and imagination.There were so many beautiful fabrics and unusual pieces around whereas these days, many fashion items are like uniforms. Unless one has the luxury of plenty of money, vintage shops are the best place to find some unique pieces.

Yes please doe architectual minimalist. That is so up my alley
Absolutely adored this Video. We all have clothes in our Wardrobes that we can bring them up to date.
Boho for example, they were worn original way back in the Day. You showed us how to bring them into 2023.
Using what you have and giving them a new life.
Rocker chic for 45+. I like the idea of architectural minimalism. Also structured athleisure. Thanks for your CC. I look forward to them every week!
Always a real pleasure to see Trinny go through her incredible wardrobe and pieces and put outfits together so easily, the outfits are always spot on and so well put together 🤩 Never missed one Closet confessions !
The white outfit I could see Bianca Jagger wearing. I love Boho but can never get it 'right' now I'm bigger. It was my go-to in the 70's and I was a skinny minny 😆 My extra large chest makes the dresses hang strange.....wish I could go back to my skinny days, ahh well 😌 x
My favorite style. Thanks. Is tricky in the winter. I do a lot of turtlenecks and scarves.
My 2nd favorite is architectural minimalism.
Yes please a summer boho look 😊and agree with the comment yours Trinny is a modern take on boho and so you .........which makes it refreshing and interesting to see 💛💙💚
My whole closet comes alive with new life after watching Trinny! She is such an inspiration to me!
Love boho style but I never thought of it, until now, as a winter one. I’m obsessed with the last look, that coat is just gorgeous ❤
When you put the black velvet Cape over the black evening dress I immediately got Stevie Nicks vibes. I love Stevie.
Then we moved to the all white ensemble which reminded me of Bianca Jagger
I would love for this sector of Closet Confessions to continue with other styles! You break them down to their elements in a way that really makes sense and is easy to identify in my wardrobe!
Bonjour Trinny, c’est toujours avec plaisir que je vous vois défiler dans des tenues différentes et toujours avec beaucoup de chic ! Bravo 🤗
Architectural minimalism sounds divine. Also, I love to see winter neutrals (excluding white).
"There's so much going on, it doesn't matter anymore". LOL, a classic line for boho lovers!!
My favorite Closet Confessions ever!! This is the style that I’ve most aspired to my whole life! The one thing missing was a low slung belt here and there… and maybe an organic farm in the background, lol. Also late 60’s/early 70’s was VERY different than late 70’s.
I’d love a minimalist one! I’ve been overhauling my wardrobe and my three style adjectives for any new stuff are ‘casual, minimal, modern’
Hi 🤗 The outfits with the orange dotty stripes and then the 2 different coats reminded me so much of the Carnaby street look.
Here's a tip of what not to do: don't cull your wardrobe in the throes of a darkness of the soul. Last year I gave away so many coats, including my favourite spring wool vintage one. Seeing Trinny bring out a coat that resembles my old one inspires me to find another. I'm sure there's one in a charity shop or consignment store somewhere.

@@TermiteVideo omg! No! I feel your pain.
That's just it, we weren't thinking properly. A lesson learned... or another lesson learned 😉
Ooh yes please, I’d love to see architectural minimalist too!! That sounds so chic and possible to replicate with pieces from our own wardrobes!?Thank you for another inspiring video !! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
OBSESSED with the all white boho look with those fringes and light and floaty vest is just delightful and that white is so fresh on you! ❤
I love the carefree whimsy and somehow it's chic! I'm here for anything you bring and thanks so much for the fun and inspiration.
Omg Trinny any of your combinations look amazing. Wow. Wow. Wow. You don’t need any suggestion or advise. Your details are AMAZING
The last outfit is my absolute favorite. That coat 😍
STUNNING COAT, true
Architectural minimalism please! Something I aspire to but can’t always find.
Definitely a summer part 2 would be a great idea. 💚👍🏽
Just bought the Massimo Dutti fringe cream blouse. It’s ON SALE! Got it as a gift for my 60th birthday, which is tomorrow 🎉. You just made my day lovely Trinny, you’re so inspiring ❤
Happy 60 th Eleonora ! I’ve just had mine and really getting more into fashion now kids are grown !

This is great!! I would LOVE some more Boho-Chic, maybe variation of it ?!
Please do summer boho! 🌸
I live in Florida and have many great boho dresses, but never know when I’m overdoing my costume jewelry, hand bags and shoes
Greatttt!!!! Yes we need a summer version of boho please 😘💋

Yessss!!! Great idea.
Isnt that the same clip where Trinny elevated her lounge wear looks, post COVID? 🤔 😉
@@lgg937 Lol, well *her* mom run looks of the past were super cute, not lounge wear at all. :)
Thank you Trinny ❤❤❤
I would love to see a boho part two with long skirts 😊❤️
Another great Closet Confessions! Would love to see your take on #oldceline, your old Celine coat collection is amazing ☺️

Yes the witchy opulent boho of the 20s is gorgeoussss
yes! I think of Bohemia, east of europe, Mucha, gypsy. never in decades..
This is a modern take on it. She never wears 'time period costumes' which is why her style is so good.
@@yellowbags Trinny was thinking in time periods and her boho failed terribly..
This is the first time I'm disappointed with a Trinny video. Boho is not just about Woodstock and some of her clashing prints look like an exaggeration of the hippie style. The black evening look, surprisingly, was the most Boho looking of her outfits.
I adore and tend somewhat boho , really liked the idea of wrapping the soft belt around your neck. You definitely have some great pieces!
I’m really not a boho girl, I like structure and tailoring. But that white tassel jacket, shit, trouser combo spoke to my soul 😮
I love playing in Trinnys closet! So generous of you! What I kept hearing was gold with boho and that makes sense with the 70’s palate. The psychedelic sequin pants was great with both coats! Another fun masterpiece girls!!
FOR A NEXT WEEK - STUDIO 54!!❤❤❤ oooooor DIOR and new look !
So much more boho to go! Loved the clergerie shoes, irridescent sequin pants . Thanks for the delight
Thank Trinny....you really nailed the concept of boho!!! And yes boho is really about Summer!!! Also a good Pixie hair cut says it too!!!
Why i love fashion: shapeshift from decades to choose from & be inspired by.
Some great looks here the first classic look , the orange inspired outfit, the black dresses and cape were my favourites 👌🏻
I literally squealed when I saw the title - and the outfit with the green jacket 🤩🤩. I'm so grateful for you sharing this video. Boho in your late 40's can look very Very uncool. I loove this lookbook that you have put together. Thank you
The green velvet jacket is amazing, Right?.. 😊 it goes so Well with the rest of that outfit.
White outfit is my absolute favorite. Love the pants
Trinny. I’d love to play in your wardrobe. You’d be the best friend to play with. Also. “Like you’ve slept in your hair” is a great phrase 😊
Plus “ you are really seeing the best in these items aren’t you Trinny “ is like saying interesting, most ppl would think they are horrible but you can find good features in them 😂.
Love love LOVE all your vids 😊
My favourite closet confessions so far !!!! And that says a lot :-))
Thanks Trinny,light outfits suits you the best.
Boho No. 2 PLEASEEEE adore this episode! Thank u
Yes! While there was a ton of content here I feel we’ve only just scratched the surface.
Ok, one of your best best best CCs-utterly inspiring, each idea a joy. Please please do part B for summer! Absolutely loved this, and, as ever, confounded why people don’t embrace pattern more. Would love love a ‘sexy’ CC, another vintage one, and what about an updated ‘80s CC at some stage. I abhor ‘80s fashion but would be so cool to see it modernised and made cool in some way? x
There.. my style.. love it.. thank you Trinny!! fab episode
I would love some ideas on how to wear harem pants. I loved this video, amazing as always. I love your modern approach to the subject. You are giving us a starting point but developing it towards a modern look.
So many beautiful looks and clothes, which are perfectly styled and matching.
This was all so good. that blue was so vibrant ❤
Hi, thanks so much for all the closet confessions! I have the hardest time knowing which height of boot or booties to match with length of skirt, the same with crop pants and shoes. Could you do a video about that? please 🙂
I would absolutely love to see a second hand shopping closet confessions 🤩
I just like seeing everything that's in ypur wardrobe . Everything is so beautiful 😍
This was so nostalgic for me….my mum dressed like this in the 70s
Loved the boho vibe as inspiration for my 50th year high school reunion this fall. Desperately need help with my mother of the groom’s outfit without the big hat and matron’s look.
I wanna see more winterized boho. Loving this.
Wonderful!!!❤I wished having some clothes of your gorgeous collection🎉
I loved the black outfit and the last one.
Boho is my absolute favourite. The gold top is fabulous!
summer layering please. im going to have 30-45 Celsius. Hot outdoor but cold air-con indoor
Thank you Trinny; you've given me loads of ideas :)
Try mixed medium/textured dressing -,think of Phoebe on Freinds - cool blend of different fabrics within a single 👕 or 👗 🥻
The silver dress looks amazing with the long black coat 💜🌸 Maria from New Zealand
Hi from nz. I loved that too!
I’m going to two theme parties in a few months. One is an 80’s party and one has a 60’s theme. I’d love modernized decade dressing episodes!
I would have loved to see the multi coloured sequence pants with the green embroidery jacket.
I love it!!! Since Boho is my fav style 😍🤩🥰!!!
The orange and white outfits were my favorite, but they were all amazing!!! Would love to see your take on sexy next week!!!
Thankyou for doing boho chic! Amazing clothes and ideas.❤️
Love this! Florence Welch does boho really well. Kept thinking of her while you were trying on all these looks ❤
Favorite episode by far 🎉 love boho chic style
You are sooo beautiful Trinny and my biggest style inspiration!

Omg i love alllll of these looks so much. Thank you for the pure indulgence ❤❤❤
Trinny, you have such a wonderful presentation/statement of fashion!
So much fun!! I would love for you to discuss how to do boho for shorter bodies. It’s my favorite style, but often I feel lost in the flow.
Okay, that Pendleton coat! Part two, for sure!!!

those psychedelic sequins trousers 🥰
Can you do my favorite decade, 1920s? Modern 1920s inspired 😊
That final coat is so gorgeous! You look great in it.
Great video and very excited for a part 2! x
Please do "Rocker chic" next. I would love that. Love you guys!
The black and sequins was very 20s. Loved the last outfit
Hi Trinny, longtime viewer - first time commenter :) Where can I find the "mad coat" (grey/yellow/turquoise aztec cardigan) or equivalent? I've been meaning to ask since the first time I saw it in one of your videos. Absolutely LOVE it! Thanks and keep on style-rocking, you're truly an inspiration!
Trinidad me encanta tu canal! Gracias por tus consejos❤❤
I love4 your use of colour, so many youtube how to dress influencers only wear naturals which i find boring.
As a busy mum spending the weekends at my kids football matches I feel I've lost my style spending most weekends in sports leggings & trainers 🤮 would love to see options for how to dress for these in a stylish warm way!
So fun! Your closet never fails to amaze 😘
