It doesn’t matter what one calls it, clear logo free and classic, modest dressing always helps a woman look her best. It projects and emphasizes strength, depth and personal integrity - yes, the pictures say a thousand words. ❤ Thanks for sharing these looks with us.
I love to see this polished pretty shift in fashion. I think it’s a response swing away from the extremely relaxed styles and over abundance of athleasure that we have seen the last three years. We are all ready to get dressed and be out in the world and seen! But of coarse with a modern take. Also, I love all black for all year. 😂. Not just me?!?
I am really happy too. I always preferred looking put together, sporty doesn't fit me at all and I am glad the options are coming back just when my old pieces are getting worn out.
Thank you for not only sharing the trends but tips on how to style them. Every time I see season trend videos, I realise how fast time moving forward!!
Love black in spring and summer. Peplum tops are so cute and pretty! Love, Love, crop jackets! I'm so happy Capri pants & kitten heals are back in style. It's easy dressing for spring and summer. Really like shear peices they give you more options. I'm so glad high rise pants are here for a while. Side part hair styles are really nice. Enjoy your videos. Thank you for the fashion update for spring.🎉
Thank you for your update. I love the side part on you, by the way. I don't care gor peplums, sheer, capri and pretty much everything that you showcased for the new season, so I guess I will go very tailored and black. Your wedding photos are gorgeous.
Dropped waist is a hard no for me. I'll continue to belt and emphasize my waist. My love affair with black continues - happy it's on trend! Just bought a lovely floral peplum blouse to brighten the next few months. Likely passing on capri pants. I don't think they flatter anyone. Kitten heels, yay!! You looked beautiful in your wedding dress, congratulations!!
Good morning Leonie, You look so lovely with your hair back. Love your songmont bag choices. I hope to purchase one soon. Sounds like you had a great time in the US. Nothing beats spending time with family. Loved this video. Ty so much.
It so weird how the season is so different than what I am experiencing right now with the double digit below zero freezing temp and I watching springs items. This is a cool heads up of not getting rid of once when spring cleaning comes around for those that follow trends. We suppose to get into the tens tomorrow and there forecast to be sunshine. Hooray! I really like all the things mention and do have items that fall under all these categories because there nothing new here. Your wedding pictures were beautiful. Thanks for sharing and blessing to you and all in the new year.
Last yr I bought 2 very nice leather bags (cream and black) by a brand called FURLA. The older vintage ones are so pretty- great leather and they tend to be larger bucket style/slouchybags. I love them and use them all the time, going out or everyday.
Hi Leonie! Love your channel and glad you had a great time in the states! One day I will get to NZ!! I just wanted to make a comment in rebuttal to the people who make comments about your hair. First of all, how is it anyone's business how you part your hair? I wore bangs and a side part (if I parted) since high school (I'm turning 61 tomorrow). I just don't get the need of random strangers telling you negative things. I think if you can rock a middle part, go for it! I never could so I stopped around age 16. Did anyone else? Nope, until short hair came in in the 80s. Anyway I just wanted to offer some support and to acknowledge you for putting up with the haters who really should find something else to do. ♥
As always, great video ❤ I recently lost some weight, and I have been decluttering my closet. But I am not letting go of my high waisted paper bag pants. They are a size bigger, but when I tuck in my shirt they look soooooo good. If anything I can tailor them to fit better if I loose more weight.
I rarely wear a deep side part and did indeed also have one on my wedding day as i had it styled at the salon at the resort we were at.. just like yours, and what a beautiful elegant bride you are, loved the dress too😊
I could not care less what trend say about where I should part my hair. Part your hair where it looks most flattering. There. I said it. Have courage to eschew the hair part trend police!
Hi Leonie, You look lovely today! I agree with you 100 on the Vera Bradley bag. I didn't use it that often after receiving it as a gift and it occasionally comes out only for groceries now. I don't know why it became so popular to begin with since it's just too busy of a print. Thanks again for your insight into fashion!
Agree. And at 4’11”, the dropped waist dress is also a ‘no.’ I’m very happy that the leg-lengthening high-waisted pants trend is continuing, though I have to be careful about not going too wide with the leg width.
Great video! So excited for spring fashion this year Kitten heels are a fav as well as Capri pants! Also going on a cruise & have a few of these pieces. No to high rise waist & peplum
The audacity of some people telling you where you should part your hair you wear your hair how you like it that's the only opinion that should matter to anyone how it makes you feel not everyone else ❤
It depends on your natural color palette. For me it is very harsh if I use it close to my face (fine for pants, accessories, etc), unless I put some make-up to balance it. Grafite, all shades of gray, dark brown, navy, dark greens are better than a total black. Same with a pure white. Off-white, creamy white, pear color, etc look better on me. But if you have high contrast (light skin, dark hair for example), you probably can use black & white without any problem. I always prefer to pair black with darker colors or neutrals. I usually don't like black + light or bright colors. I love to use black with marsala, for example.
For what it's worth I find folks commenting on your centre part a bit odd. I wear mine side-parted, slightly side-parted, centre-parted. I find it interesting how so many of the late 90s trends are coming back in both clothes and hair!
I finally gave in and bought some elevated basics in black this year…. I still feel like it’s a bit harsh for my skin colour, but interesting that it’s coming into fashion. Lol
@@Thestyleinsider. A little bit of both, really…. Also, trendy or not, my favourite outfits include a pop of yellow. I get a TON of compliments… I guess it’s a bold and unexpected colour. 💛💛💛
Hi Leoni. May I ask your opinion ? I have a nice denim jacket (a tad long). It’s by White Stuff and I was thinking of just chopping off the band at the bottom, not sewing it but leaving a raw edge. I’m hoping it will take out some of the fullness as well as making it shorter. I’m 75 and don’t want to look younger (as if that’s ever going to happen 😂😂😂) I’m just thinking it could look more stylish and could wear my longer shirts or tees underneath. I don’t want to be cutting about in cropped jackets - I’m too old and too fat …….
I'm so excited for all the trends coming up this year because is literally how i dress ! 😂❤🎉🎉 Also I'm really excited for the hairstyle bringing the side part back ! 😊 I wonder what will all the tik tok haters on side part going to do now 🫢 thanks for all the recommendations 😊
I've never not worn my side part. That's one thing I'll NEVER change. As a wardrobe stylist and personally I can't stand high waisted anything and for some reason I walk better in stilettos than kitten heels. 🤣
Thanks for the great video! Do you have any information on the lavender cropped jacket with dramatic sleeves worn by the fourth woman from the left on your title page?
@@Thestyleinsider. I really enjoyed the one you did on trimming your own hair! That may have been during covid! I would be very interested, but maybe a poll on future content and include that. Many styles look best on your frame imo!
Can I ask what dressing stylish in New Zealand is like? Aren't you in Summer and heading into Autumn? Do the trendy people wait around until it is spring there, or do you wear kitten heels in autumn then?
Hi please need a bit of help Got a newhandbag biggish not a small Cross body bag But has 2 straps and one keeps falling off my shoulder What can I use to tie the 2 together? Any tips out there will be interesting and may work Thanks Marianna
Apart from the elevated basics, I can't see any other trend here that would suit me, so I guess I won't be spending much money soon. 😊 And I've worn a side parting all my life - because it suits me, regardless of any trends. 😂
Baffling to most of us how some think it’s fine to criticize someone else hair and how they “part” it. Anyone who does should perhaps look in the mirror to find the glaring “flaws” of themselves.
@@Thestyleinsider.Because it only takes one, Leonie! Rudeness, no matter how couched, throws me off my stride. I have picked up the perfect response from another influencer, Michael @dontcrossagayman … “Ewwww!” 😝 His facial expressions also help me 180 my frowns! 😂 You are gorgeous and thoughtful (inside and out) and I very much appreciate you distilling fashion to digestible chunks for me. Thank you, Kira
I’m 5’3 and short waisted and drop waists are hit and miss for me, peplum tops look awful. I do wear capri pants in warmer weather because I am a little limited in what I am allowed to wear to work and capris are the most comfortable so hopefully the fashion police won’t come arrest me, lol. I work with young children, many with special needs, so there is a lot of moving around, bending over, lifting, etc. You always have such nice content Leoni! Happy New Year ♥️
I wear high waisted, ( super high waisted when I can find them), men’s style trousers and I like the top simple. I wear black all year long, love kitten heels. Funny… I have always wore the side part😎
There's never a fashion era that will overshadow classic dressing... It's timeless, effortless, and beautiful...❤
I agree! Carolyn Bissette Kennedy is my fashion hero!
So true!

I agree, wear your hair anywhere you like at any age! It’s your hair!!
Agree! I was taught that If you have nothing nice to say. Say nothing.
I like center parts also.. very sophisticated.
Me too!
I have a short torso so a drop waist is something I’d like to try to elongate my waistline.
Such a beautiful bride and still are no matter which side you part your hair😊. Great video and styles🎉
Aww that's so kind of you to say so - thank you so much 🤗
I can't believe that people would actually comment on the way in which you part your hair Leonie!! I think you look terrific 🙂
You always have solid advice. Your style is classic and gorgeous. Yay to the side part . 😊
Thank you so much!!

They were a THING! The only brand I can think of with equally busy prints is LP(Lille Pulitzer).
I love kitten heels, so feminine! But no peplums or capris or super baggy pants for me.
What a beautiful bride!!!❤
I love the Spring fashion! I have most of it in my wardrobe
Glad you had a good visit to the U.S. It is 10 degrees in my part of the U.S. today. I love your top!
Oh wow! That is cold! Where my son lives is covered in thick snow at the moment - I wish I was still there to see it :(
Thanks for this! Will have to pass on the peplum tops and capris since it will disrupt the rule of thirds balance on my 5’3” pear shaped body. 😅
same here, 5"2 but I like Bermudas and they are back in 2024 too
Agree. And at 4’11”, the dropped waist dress is also a ‘no.’ I’m very happy that the leg-lengthening high-waisted pants trend is continuing, though I have to be careful about not going too wide with the leg width.
Fair enough too x

The audacity of some people telling you where you should part your hair you wear your hair how you like it that's the only opinion that should matter to anyone how it makes you feel not everyone else ❤
By the way, I have learned from other fashion influencers that black is very harsh. A dark navy blue or chocolate brown can be a better choice.
It depends on your natural color palette. For me it is very harsh if I use it close to my face (fine for pants, accessories, etc), unless I put some make-up to balance it. Grafite, all shades of gray, dark brown, navy, dark greens are better than a total black. Same with a pure white. Off-white, creamy white, pear color, etc look better on me.

I usually don't like black + light or bright colors. I love to use black with marsala, for example.
At 5’4” with a rather large busted frame, drop waist items make me look squatty. Not happening. That’s why you offer a list, Leonie !
For what it's worth I find folks commenting on your centre part a bit odd. I wear mine side-parted, slightly side-parted, centre-parted. I find it interesting how so many of the late 90s trends are coming back in both clothes and hair!
