@@cozymoggele that's a great idea, though Imho minis or over knee skirts with ankle boots do look quite nice, even with bare legs or sheer tights, there's enough leg showing that covering is optional or it would defeat the purpose. I thought the closing the gap aspect was more about midi skirts, though the gap even then doesn't look bad at all, just a bit less formal (:.
@@melissagriffin7515 yes, and both with tights or bare legs. Imho in part even with the midi but at least if most of the leg is covered I can see the logic of talking about a "gap" to cover, which ankle boots would leave, though I see nothing wrong with it. Seems like she sees it as like if you want to show legs with midis, you wear low vamp shoes or sandals, if I got it. But that's just a way to see the style :).
I personally think the first look is cute! The tall fitted boots look uncomfortable. I don’t care how fashionable a look is - if I’m uncomfortable, I don’t look good in it. If you’re worried about cutting off your vertical line, wear darker tights.
Tights look great with boots! I know you shook your head "no" on several of these, but frankly, every piece you showed looked great. You are an artist with clothing!
@@aeriz85They look completely fine if you aren't concerned about what others think about you or trying to follow the "right" way people say when there is no right way (it is all about personal style and what people subjectively like). Also, bringing age into this is ignorant, as if all adults know how to "dress properly" with your standards. Lastly, you saying they don't look better is not objective truth. You can have your own opinion but your judgement is unnecessary and immature.
@@aeriz85 yes they do. Style changes all the time and the long boots are just something that’s trendy- not a timeless look at all. Like literally go look through fashion history for yourself and come back again with how it’s everyone else, not you, who don’t know how to dress 😂😂😂
The irony is the first two don't outfits looked way better and stylish than their corresponding do outfits. Nothing wrong with having a gap between hem of skirt and the boot at all.
I have really long legs, and don't think anything could make them "look short", as she described it. I always wear heavy boots with my mid length skirts.
That is absolutely not true!!! The fact that everyone fits into the "don't" category and we see those looks everywhere on the streets makes people believe that is the right way when in reality it is not. The gap between boots and skirt is totally aesthetically unpleasant.
Thank you for the video! I love wearing skirts in winter and wear them much more now than in summer. It is just easier to me to layer for Norwegian winter with a skirt than with a lot of trousers. Now I really want to find myself a pair of tall boots in a colour that isn’t black.
I do love your styling tips anyhow as a short girl with wide upper legs it’s very hard to accomplish this esthetic. Can you please make a video about it. I am sure I am not the only one struggling. Thank you in advance ❤
I love the combination of a short black dress with over the knee black ribbed wool socks and shorter Boots (Chelsea Boot Lenght). This gives the illusion of over the knee boots. Maybe it can also work for you.
The 'donts' look less polished, but they were all cute. For the most part each outift looks like someone put care and effort into their styling. If I saw someone wearing one on the street, I would still think they look put together, especially if they had the attitude to complement it.
No I genuinely wouldn’t follow this advice either except maybe the last one , different body shapes & shape of the boots (if they’re pointy or rounded) will drastically alter these choices either way.
I feel like if you wear more opaque tights the shirt booties will look super cute with the midi skirt!! I wear boots with fall/winter dresses and I often wear thicker tights for warmth. I like cute look!
You are so classy and elegant with touch od simplicity ... thanks for the good information u provide in your video about styling it helps alot ... because u not show only styling things together like other but u teach the rolls of fashion ... go on 🌷🌷🌷 i really love you jumper frrom which brand please
What about us whose calves can't fit into boots (knee- or thigh-high) and we're left with only ankle boots to wear? I love Lydia, but this video is completely disregarding the fact that we're all different shapes and body sizes. P.s. Weight has nothing to do with calf size.
Don’t know if I agree with all these rules! It’s a new day baby. Do what feels right to you, we all shouldn’t cookie cut, but infact innovate. Don’t follow, inspire. 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐺
First recommendation is ok in theory but needs a sleeker silhouette than the outfit you put together. The oversize sweater + wide skirt NEED a "break" in the outfit so you aren't just a blob. With the taller boots, your proportions got screwed up, made you head look huge and made you look shorter overall. Same with the second one. Your tall boots didn't actually match your tights. The tights might be labelled "black" but they LOOK brown. The short boots at least matched your shirt, the tall boots looked like you got dressed in the dark.
I literally have thicker legs and none of these longer boots fit me 😢 So yeah, I'm still being a fashion criminal and having that gap between skirt and my short boots 🤷🏼♀️
I don’t know if you have done this. But can you do a video about different type of shoes you can have in the winter when having looser trousers/bootcut/suit pants etc?? I always have a hard time with those but even more in winter!! 🙁💕🙏🏼
Thank you for video, I agree with the tip. But the boots all went well with the skirt, for me it’s the jumper it’s too oversized for the skirt and ended up giving a weird look to all outfits.
Personally I like the don'ts . I would wear those as ut is easier and comfortable. What she recommends is more like something a model would wear but not really something that you would wear for 8 hours in the office. Especially the high boots. After 8 hours I want to trow them out the window. And driving in them.. The look is one thing, particality is something else
the first outfit looks great! why do we have to treat everything mathematically, that there are some sections yadda yadda? just wear what looks good and don't overanalyze
I just bought a skirt like that to wear with my tall black suede black boots! This skirt is such a great item to combine with so many other items!🩷 I'm so happy!
Side note: If you're a Flamboyant Gamine, ignore all of this lol. You actually WANT to "break up" the outfit & wear contrasting colors. Wearing all one color makes FGs look pulled down to the floor & shorter. Breaking up your lines will be more harmonious with your vertical & petite.
I get the no short boots with midi rule - but to me it looks fine (and I plan on doing it next week with tights) and I see women wear short skirts with knee highs all the time - there is a gap there - so what is the difference? But I really appreciate these videos of pairing shoes to pants, they are helpful.
I usually love the vids but I found the first boots cute if they were more fitted and not sloppy, and the second pair made me feel like it was a witch costume 🤐
I just have one request/suggestion. Can we please for the love of Jesus stop wearing shades for these videos? It looks good with them on, it looks great in fact! But we don’t walk around in the office all day wearing them and so it’s overselling an outfit that in real life will not look like that. Please 😩
If you want to wear the shorter boots wear tights that are as dark(opaque) as the boots. You get a similar affect as the long boots
Nice tip!! I got sad because I only have a pair of combat boots and I only wear mini skirts
this is what I do, since tall boots never fit me lol

I do not agree with this entire video. The ankle boot with mini skirt can work. It depends on styling.

The light brown Chelsea boots looked so much more “relatable” and cute. ❤
Honestly, this all looks fine. Maybe it's because I like skirts and they always look flattering to me.
short boots with skirt was super cute!

That second "bad" outfit was so cute! The "correct" version of the outfit was giving Pretty Woman 😅
All the don'ts look waaaay better!
No they don’t! Unless u are way too young to understand how to dress properly
@@aeriz85go ahead and dress like a trash bag😂. Also ask your grandmother, if she has a bit of class she would go for option 1.

It doesn't bother me when I look in the mirror or at other people so long as the colors pair well!

I liked the first one!
Her high boots are hideous I think thats why.

So many subtle changes that make a huge impact. For the fashion illiterate like me, your videos are extremely helpful :-)
Thank you for the video! I love wearing skirts in winter and wear them much more now than in summer. It is just easier to me to layer for Norwegian winter with a skirt than with a lot of trousers. Now I really want to find myself a pair of tall boots in a colour that isn’t black.
Can we have a video on what outerwear to wear long skirts and long dresses with in winter please? 🥶🥶🥶
A coat the same length as the skirt/dress or a shorter jacket.
Fleece leggings 👌🏻
@@Moe90ies Fleece leggings are outerwear?
Yes please do a video
Fleece leggings
I wear booties with all skirt lengths, I am leggy and it looks great.
I'm not "leggy" I have long legs...a long with long everything else... I'm just tall 🙃🤧
I do love your styling tips anyhow as a short girl with wide upper legs it’s very hard to accomplish this esthetic. Can you please make a video about it. I am sure I am not the only one struggling. Thank you in advance ❤
I love the combination of a short black dress with over the knee black ribbed wool socks and shorter Boots (Chelsea Boot Lenght).
This gives the illusion of over the knee boots.
Maybe it can also work for you.
The irony is that she looks so much better in all the opposite than she recommended
Def. much more approachable.
Love the 1st look with the long skirt and boots
You always look so classy & elegant Lydia!❤ thank you for the tips love.
...the thing is you are so chic everything you wear looks great! thank you for the detailed breakdown though.
I wear midi skirts every day and I like them better with booties
I actually like the before and after in everything 😂. Just all gorgeous items 😍.
I think the shorter boots looked way better with the first one
Like the breaking up is needed because in the long one you just looked too swallowed
Wow I never would have thought to do any of these! The do's were way better, esp the midi skirt w long boots 👌👌👌👌
Perfectly Lovely!!! Great tips!!!💞💞🙃💞💞
So many people in the comment section contradicting😂😂😂 everything she stated is spot on💖💖✨ Most people have horrible style lmaooo
Who appointed you the CEO of fashion
Let’s see your outfits babe
The 'donts' look less polished, but they were all cute. For the most part each outift looks like someone put care and effort into their styling. If I saw someone wearing one on the street, I would still think they look put together, especially if they had the attitude to complement it.
I love the knee length pleated skirt! Where is it from?
Every donts looked so good on you idk maybe i have no taste in fashion 😅
No I genuinely wouldn’t follow this advice either except maybe the last one , different body shapes & shape of the boots (if they’re pointy or rounded) will drastically alter these choices either way.
You Look Super CUTE!!!😍 Love The Fashion's😩❤👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I find it very hard to get a winter skirt in a decent material weight.
I love your videos and advice but I wish you wouldn’t move and switch shots so fast because I don’t get time to look at the details on your outfits!
I think the ankle boots look the best on all outfits.
So much movement that I can barely see the outfits.
The don'ts of posture.
I feel like if you wear more opaque tights the shirt booties will look super cute with the midi skirt!! I wear boots with fall/winter dresses and I often wear thicker tights for warmth. I like cute look!
Ooh yaa thats lovely for superthin people indeed!!
You are so classy and elegant with touch od simplicity ... thanks for the good information u provide in your video about styling it helps alot ... because u not show only styling things together like other but u teach the rolls of fashion ... go on 🌷🌷🌷

Shoes are so hard, I really appreciate this

So helpful, great tips 💕
The first one looked better with the shorter boot in my opinion
I think with a midi skirt, lace up boots in any height work well too because the laces break up the line where the boot starts.
If you are not short, you can't look " shorter" . You are short or tall. There is nothing wrong with beeing short. Or tall. Enjoy yourself
I love it! You rock, girl ! Thank you xx
I literally have thicker legs and none of these longer boots fit me 😢 So yeah, I'm still being a fashion criminal and having that gap between skirt and my short boots 🤷🏼♀️
Me too!
i have the same problem. I would wear a knee length black sock to go with a black loafer to get an "illusion" of knee-high boot from afar.
Oh yeah, modern confection shoes are made for slick legs only, never find anything for my curvy thick calves :(
Thank you all for sharing this, made me feel a bit better and normal about having curvier legs ❤️
@@baidykle1 I'm happy for you, thank you, wish you a great day!
i get all the staple advice GREAT advice but! also do what feels right fr you lovelies x i do love all thecool cuteclassy not brassy advice thlo
I love pointy boots on everything.
You look amazing. Love the turtleneck high snug collar
Love these types of videos! Thank you for the dos and donts
This! This is the kind of tip I need! Thank you!

Good points! Go girl!
hosiery the same color as footwear seems so basic. I love your sense of balance and finesse. again the more mystery look is the winner with me.
Hellooo!!! Lidiita bonita amoooo❤❤❤❤❤ your looks . Thanks for your for all your style tips
The shorter boots looked so much better…
Yes!! Hear ye… Hear ye ! 🥂
The Second look was really good with booties
I’d say it really depends on what you’re trying to achieve with that specific look
These are nice tips! Thank you
I wore the same outfit today, that you had on last! Haha great minds think alike!
im not a chunky boot girl but i do see why the short boots on the maxi skirt work better
I think I need to update my shoe collection after seeing this!
Me gustan mucho los videos dos & don’ts.
All these suggestions are great! ❤
I liked all the outfits including the "don'ts" 😂😅
I don't understand half tucking of shirts. Sometimes it works depending but most of the time no. Most of the time it looks sloppy
Love your style. Can you share what belt you are wearing with the long midi skirt please?
Personally I like the don'ts . I would wear those as ut is easier and comfortable.

I really like to wear long boots however I've never found any long boots that fit my thick calves 😢
Hello! ❤ Love your tips, always watch it. Where is the first skirt from? I looooveee it soooo much! ❤
I just bought a skirt like that to wear with my tall black suede black boots! This skirt is such a great item to combine with so many other items!🩷 I'm so happy!

Can u link black skirt and sweaters pls ❤
Long boots that go above the hemline always ick me out, even if it's an ankle boot thats slightly too high I just can't do it
I like the long black skirt👍
Totally agree, but what about loafers with a maxi or midi skirt? Do or don’t?
Personally i would do loafers with a maxi, but not midi skirt. With midi, i’d probably do a knee-length boot
where are those lovely long boots with the pointed toe and stacked heel from?
I like the skirt 🤗
Where were your OTK boots from Lydia ? They are gorge!🔥😍🙏
Lydia who are the fitted boot by?
Arket
I just don't care for the tall boots at all, especially the fitted boots. In both cases I liked the booty looks much better.
Me watching your videos and having commited about every fashion crime you mention, including right at this moment 😅
I get the points symmetrically and all. Think every fit looked better before.

😂 I liked all the don’t so much better
Nothing wrong with the looks. They look cute to me
I wish you’d link where your shoes are from
I love skirts paired with twinsets
Great tips
I never know when it's appropriate to wear black nylons or nude / tan nylons😅 you make the black look very nice😊
