Love this video!! Your hair looks fabulous - not everyone can pull it off but you have it on point!! I love your makeup and would love to know how you achieved this flawless glowing look!! Thank you for the time that you take to make your wonderful videos. I am a big fan!!!!
Thanks, beauty! I'll have a video on my fall routine (plus an outfit) soon so you can see how I do my makeup currently. Thanks for such a sweet comment! xoxox
+Marta A. Yes, those designers are expensive, but they were also used as structured examples in the video. I never said it was a necessity to purchase in order to dress-up a look.
You should do a "Dress Me" series where you give shopping tips for different kinds of people - professional working mom, stay at home mom, casual working woman, vacationer, college intern, first daters, job seekers, etc. I would love your take on their needs and your advice!
I just found your channel and I'd love the idea she mentioned! I'm a college student, and there are days that I want to look put together for class and still be comfortable, but never know what to wear!
I would say running an iron over your clothes elevates you too. Even if it is fresh out of the dryer and looks like there are no wrinkles, that simple swipe adds a polished finish.
So much respect for you. You are clear, and classy when explaining your videos. Very helpful and professional, you chose the content of each video very wisely and prepare accordingly, always considering you audience needs and requests. I've personally been very much changed ever since i started using some of your tips and im very grateful. So Christie, THANK YOU. And thank you, cause i also notice you try to reply to most of the questions we make in the comments and i know how much time that takes. God bless you always.
+Nalim Lorentz thanks so much for such a thoughtful and kind comment; it made my day! I'm thrilled to read that you are getting information and inspiration from the videos. That's my wish for you all! I love to reply to you all and hope to continue it. Xo
Christie, Great ideas! But pointed high heels are killers when you reach 75....so sad as they were a staple when I was a bit younger. Thank-you for mentioning how important taking care of your hands and nails is. So many great ideas (I already said that, but so true). PS Your hair looks beautiful, a little out there...but well done. This old lady loves it!
So many great tips!! I always go to neutrals, black, white, denim etc and simple metallic accessories (gold earrings/shoes etc) when I'm not sure what to wear and always feel great when I go for those things.💕💕💕
I love your style so much, but I noted you most of the time wear hi heels and that is why it looks so beautiful, any clothes with hi heels look much better and expensive. But its not practical in a day life, we use them very seldom. Wanted to see more styles with medium heel, curvy body. Thank you so much!.
+Jann thank! I do wear slides in some of my videos, but not frequently. I do like heels, and wear them frequently in my day-to-day, but it’s not a requirement for everyone. There are lots of great medium to low heel/flat options out there. I’ll definitely try and include them more for you all. Thanks for the feedback!
Christie you are so knowledgeable and I really enjoy your videos! I agree! Some aspects are so basic , neat up to date hair, clean, uniformly shaped nails! People can spend a lot of money 💰 but miss the easier ones! You have a lovely look ! I just love how to put items together! I'm 55 and working on revising and simplifying my wardrobe with " less is more!" I'm dying to know- are you petite like me? I am 5'1" and usually a size 8
Christie, u r spot on with the pointed toe. May I add, I no longer can wear heels, 44 years in the hair industry, so I’ve started looking at “kitten heels” and even though I’m petite, these kitten heels look GREAT , especially if I’m wearing straight leg jeans. And oh yeah, the nail art really needs to go. Nothing about pictures on your nails looks classy! I just found you am looking forward to more advice from you, thank u
@@ChristieRessel I grew up very modestly (working class parents - not starving, but no family vacations or extras). Now that I can actually afford a Chanel bag, I just CANNOT bring myself to spend that much. I guess old habits really die hard. I'm happy with my Kate Spade, Michael Kors level bags (on sale of course - lol).
I have literally never valued a good hand bag until seeing this video. I appreciate how you showed both looks ("what not to do") because it was such a stark contrast. I've never owned a purse with "structure" but I'm going to look for one. Thank you!
If you have feet issues pointy shoes are not an option. But could you cover how certain heels, shapes or wedges can put you back into a more classic option. Love to hear your thoughts.
Great info thanks!!...I agree so much on the purse and shoes! I feel ready for my interview and you helped me decide on my pointy tan shoes as opposed to my rounded black mary janes...you rock!
I basically wear most things with a suit jacket it just whoops it up to a power statement I actually wear wedge converse trainers with jeans and suit jacket and it gives a casual power suit feel still coz them high heels can be hard to walk in all day and sometimes can look like your trying too hard
@@lisamarie5918 I suffer from chronic lower body pain (from my waist down) & cannot wear pointed-toed shoes. Please consider how your comments might affect others.
I really relate to the issues of fabric and fit. Not only does fit make a huge difference in how polished a person looks, but fabric also matters. Drape is amazingly important in how flattering a garment is, and for long term use a good quality fabric makes such a big difference. Some fabrics just look awful after a year of wear (some sweaters???) or a few washes. For me it’s really worth it to make sure the fabrics I bring into my own closet are good ones. I can’t wear shoes as pointy as the pumps you showed, but there are many nice options between really pointy and drab round toes, I think.
(new subscriber here) I LOVE your hair like this; both the color and style is so attractive. While your current blonde and easy shoulder length do is great, this one is a stand out. WOW...me likey.
Hi- I just found your channel and I'm loving it! You go into such great detail without being boring or annoying; so I just subscribed and have been watching you all night. Can't wait to see what you'll put up next. Maybe a suggestion?: How to mix fabrics (like florals, stripes, solids and denim, silk, cotton, poly etc.) I'm lost about this and ALWAYS play it safe because of it. I'm sorry if you've done this already- I'm new here and haven't seen them all YET. Thank you for this wealth of info and the amazing way that you present it.
Loved the video and thanks for showing a bag which is not necessarily Chanel or Dior... it's full of people out there suggesting to spend lot of money but, hey, we usually can't afford 1000$ bag!! ;)
So true Christie! This is the best one of these kind of videos I’ve seen. Most are similar but you hit some high notes. Thanks! And I agree with you 100%
Fantastic tips! Your look is amazing - your makeup & hair are absolutely Gorgeous - and very classic including your hair! Perhaps you could include a list of makeup & hair products (both the Brands & the specific colors) which you're using in this video? That would be tremendously helpful for those of us wishing to borrow from your lovely & very classic makeup & hair styling (but who need to adapt the specific colors to our own hair & skin tones). Thanks so much for a wonderfully helpful video! I'm a new subscriber as a result of how useful this video was. Perhaps you could show us more wardrobe options in the future featuring the "other" neutral options you mentioned, such as using the blush colors & "dirty rose" as neutrals?
As a jeweller, it's classier to wear just one piece of jewellery at a time - either earrings OR one necklace OR one statement ring OR a bracelet / bangle. You can get away with tiny stud earrings with another piece of jewellery, but they do have to be small and plain. Wearing more than one necklace at a time is more like showing off your wealth, which is never a classy look.
I will like to add to press or steam your clothes. Even if you think they look ok, pressing them makes a world of a difference and they'll fit better. Txs for your videos, very cool!
As much as I wanted to use high heels but I’m living in Spain where most of the road are made from cable stone. That is why I’m always using flat shoes
Love this video. I can't wear pointy toed shoes, but I ALWAYS wear heels. Even though I'm 5'8" tall and slim, I wear heels to elongate my legs and make me look more polished and lean. I hate seeing UGHs and flat heel shoes on women.
Right? I was so impressed by it when I received it! The quality is gorgeous! They may ship to your area as I know they're handcrafted in Italy by Buti. xo
Enjoyed the video and agree with most suggestions. If you're wearing a pointy toe, just be sure to up the size by half...especially if the heel is very high. I found it a bit amusing that while the shoe type was being described as refined, you held them with toes pointing in opposite directions! Anyways...thank you so much for the reminders and I'll be searching for more! Enjoyed!
Like very much your videos. Thanks for taking the time to make them. They are helping me a lot, because I was the kind of person who bought everything, I liked and in the end nothing to go with anything else. So I was always without what to ware.
HI Christie! I just subscribed to your channel after viewing this video and noticed that you live in the Burlington area as well. My postal is L7S 1X7 so I think we are practically neighbors!
Hi I’m new to your channel and love your videos. I would love if you could link some products you talked about in the video (or similar products) in the description box.
Great video, thank you! You look amazing and that hair color is on point! Regarding your comments on fabric. I agree that the fabric and drape definitely affect the overall look of a piece. Inexpensive rayon has a tendency to accentuate any lumps and bumps and figure flaws, as well as thin denim, and acrylic looks cheap and usually pills after 1 wash and or wear. Also, the more inexpensive fabrics used to make summer skirts and dresses can be very sheer requiring a slip to be worn, which cancels out the cooling effect of those garments. UGH! So, please, please tell me/us, when choosing dresses and blouses to purchase for the spring/summer months, what is the best type of fabric to look for to achieve that drapey BOHO vibe? Which fabrics drape well and also keep you cool in spring/summer? Tyia : )
I like printed cotton lawn fabrics for summer blouses. They are lightweight but not sheer enough to require a camisole underneath. I also found a chambray weight denim shirt dress that will dress up or down for four seasons of wear.
This was a fantastic video from start to finish. Definitely going to subscribe! Also, I love, love, love your hair color. How you pull that off, I have no idea. But you are stunningly gorgeous! Finally, THANK YOU for acknowledging that "nude" is not a single shade (least of all, beige). So many people miss this basic point, and it's as frustrating as it is insulting.
What if you already have disproportionately long legs? I feel like a lot of stylists seek to make one’s legs look longer. I am 6’1” with a 36” inseam. Do I just find pointed flats?
OMG those gold shoes are stunning! Question...do you think there's ever a time florals can work? Like as maybe a handbag or a shirt or skirt paired with everything else in complimentary colours to the pattern.
Sorry I pressed the comment by mistake- anyway I'd love to know if you're around my size because I love many of your items and suspect they might be a good match for me. Thank you for all the helpful, valuable information! Warmly, Robin💕
I just found you! Thank you so much. This is the second video of yours I am watching. Only suggestion is to have time stamps so I can jump to each point :-) Thank yoU!
Thank you gorgeous girl. These tips are great. I am decluttering my wardrobe (spring here in Australia) and was wondering are there seasonal peices you should keep in your wardrobe? 👛 hugs. Ms. O.
Glad you enjoyed it! For more detailed style advice outside of the video content, we'd have to do an online style session love. I have some listed on my website if you're interested in that (or check out some of my spring videos on my channel) xo
So happy to hear that! I've thought of doing that, but style sessions are typically very intimate appointments, so I'd have to find some women that are open to themselves being filmed. It's a possibility in future for sure!
O sweety the pointed toe started long ago .they were not allowed on the battle field .yes men wore them too .I can not wear pointed toe .yes nail well .Stylests here thank you for the advice .
Regarding a tailored fit, what about someone who is plus size? And I'm not talking plus size like Ashley Graham who has a flat stomach; I'm talking about flab and rolls. Yes, I know, lose the weight, but that doesn't happen overnight. Being overweight with rolls does not allow me to have anything tailored, in fact, the complete opposite. What are some tips?
First thing that would come to my mind would be (black) trousers, a nice flowy top (maybe chiffon) and a cardigan/blazer which goes past your butt to kind of stretch your look. The shirt doesn't have to be baggy, especially chiffon has a really nice flow to it. It hides any rolls but you don't look boxy in it. Pair that with a long necklace and I think it would look really great :)
Pointy toes are damaging to the feet, permanent damage at that. Hammer toes and bunions are a direct result of bad shoes. Women are punishing themselves and designers like louboutin are causing permanent damage to women
+evalmiki2011 that can be true if: women are wearing heels to high (120mm), heels too small, heels exclusively, and heels with too small of a shoe box (in which case they're be uncomfortable to start). None of which I recommend.
I forgot to mention that I am a physical therapist who specializes in orthopedics :) it is documented that pointed toe shoes over the years causes hammer toes and bunions are a long term consequence. Flat shoes with pointed toes also cause that over the years
My dad is a chiropractor and talks about the same thing. I try to get pointed shoes that taper slowly though, no more than an almond or round toe would do so that the toe box isn't crushing. Good info to note regardless though!

The most important thing you can wear is a smile, the best thing about that is smiling is contagious! 😊
Love the video 😊 though I also think a nice red manicure (hue depending on skin tone) looks amazing and elevates an outfit 😉
+Madeleine D red it also beautiful! It's a bit more dramatic, but definitely fun and classic!
I love this, especially as a financial coach encouraging living luxe for less! Thank you!

Now I understand why people wear the pointy toed shoes!! I never liked them, but the look makes sense and I like it. ❤️
Love this video!! Thank you.
It's a subtle difference, but makes a large impact. So happy you enjoyed watching!

Thank you for telling me about teddy blake - it has change my whole life!!!! Thank you Teddy Blake - I will soon be buying allllll of your bags!!!!
What if you already have disproportionately long legs? I feel like a lot of stylists seek to make one’s legs look longer. I am 6’1” with a 36” inseam. Do I just find pointed flats?
I have the exact same Teddy Blake purse in black. I may be getting one in a nice color, maybe red!
That'd be a beautiful choice!
OMG those gold shoes are stunning!
Question...do you think there's ever a time florals can work? Like as maybe a handbag or a shirt or skirt paired with everything else in complimentary colours to the pattern.

Thank you gorgeous girl. These tips are great. I am decluttering my wardrobe (spring here in Australia) and was wondering are there seasonal peices you should keep in your wardrobe? 👛 hugs. Ms. O.
Glad you enjoyed it! For more detailed style advice outside of the video content, we'd have to do an online style session love. I have some listed on my website if you're interested in that (or check out some of my spring videos on my channel) xo
Love Your Hair !!!
I love that floral blouse!
Loved this video! Affirming.
Confidence in what you wear is the most powerful way to look expensive!
It is true...pointed shoes do contribute to the cause of ingrown toenails..BE careful if you wear them past age 50.
Love ur makeup
Lived this video! Would love to see you work with some people helping them with their looks
So happy to hear that! I've thought of doing that, but style sessions are typically very intimate appointments, so I'd have to find some women that are open to themselves being filmed. It's a possibility in future for sure!

Yes ,shoes can make or break an outfit . I always start with the shoes I want to wear then dress from there.
Love your make up!!
I HATE pointed toe shoes. They are uncomfortable. I will continue to wear my rounded toe heels, etc.

I agree. They're so horrible for my feet. Almond toe or a mildly squared toe is so much better for me and still stylish!
O sweety the pointed toe started long ago .they were not allowed on the battle field .yes men wore them too .I can not wear pointed toe .yes nail well .Stylests here thank you for the advice .
Thanks for this video! I suscribe today and hope to get more of yout fashion wisdom.
+Carol Diaz aw, thank-you! Happy to have you!
Omg I loooooove your looks it's so smart, your hair colour flatters your eyes and complection👏👏👏💞 and those golden shose😍😍😍😍😍💞💞💞💞💞
Jenny Mullins: I definitely agree. Pointy toes heels are a no for me from the 60' s.
Regarding a tailored fit, what about someone who is plus size? And I'm not talking plus size like Ashley Graham who has a flat stomach; I'm talking about flab and rolls. Yes, I know, lose the weight, but that doesn't happen overnight. Being overweight with rolls does not allow me to have anything tailored, in fact, the complete opposite. What are some tips?
First thing that would come to my mind would be (black) trousers, a nice flowy top (maybe chiffon) and a cardigan/blazer which goes past your butt to kind of stretch your look.
The shirt doesn't have to be baggy, especially chiffon has a really nice flow to it. It hides any rolls but you don't look boxy in it.
Pair that with a long necklace and I think it would look really great :)
Pointy toes are damaging to the feet, permanent damage at that. Hammer toes and bunions are a direct result of bad shoes. Women are punishing themselves and designers like louboutin are causing permanent damage to women
+evalmiki2011 that can be true if: women are wearing heels to high (120mm), heels too small, heels exclusively, and heels with too small of a shoe box (in which case they're be uncomfortable to start). None of which I recommend.
I forgot to mention that I am a physical therapist who specializes in orthopedics :) it is documented that pointed toe shoes over the years causes hammer toes and bunions are a long term consequence. Flat shoes with pointed toes also cause that over the years
My dad is a chiropractor and talks about the same thing. I try to get pointed shoes that taper slowly though, no more than an almond or round toe would do so that the toe box isn't crushing. Good info to note regardless though!
100 % agree. Pointed toed shoes have damaged my toes. Hence I don't like showing my bare feet, ever.
I have not been able to wear heels since my spinal surgery and Dr tells me to never wear them anyway.
What do you recommend for us that cannot where heels and pointed toes anymore?
Great tips!!
Thank-you so much, beauty! xo
Love this video!
+Julie VB so happy to hear that! Xo
thanks for sharing !😘
+Twin mama04 happy to! Xo
What do you wear if you can’t tolerate a heel? I put on heels and my feet ache!
Any beautiful flat or loafer would look beautiful!
Thank you for this video ! It is so great! I have been looking everywhere for a longer blazer like the one in the video. Where is it from? :)
So happy you liked it! The blazer is from Zara. It's called the Inverted Lapel Frock -- a staple of theirs each season!
Thank you for replying!! :)
Love your tips, love your style:)
Thanks!
I love your look !!
+Keera Ashton thanks!
