Love how individual fashion is!! I don’t own a single T shirt, I hate the way they look on me. I love a halter neck, boat neck, turtleneck though… I looks so nice on other people though
Kia ora Leoni. I find your channel very useful and enjoyed reading Fashion Quarterly when I was living and working in NZ early 2010s. I especially agree with the point that since these basics are also on trend, if you need to add or replace some, now is the time to do it!. Cheers amd thank you,, Jennifer
@@Thestyleinsider. Hi Leoni. I returned home to Ottawa Canada after my 5 year govt job ended in Wellington and to be nearer aging parents. As a proud 'kaniwi' I am lucky to always have the option of living in either country. Best wishes for continued success with your fashion channel!
I have similar coloring- hair, skin, eyes as yourself. I have always loved orange from warm and sunny to winter rust or burnt orange. I also decorate with those colors a lot. Happy Spring!
Bought a black Boden trench midi length about 15 years ago. It has been a wonderful staple that I use every spring and fall. Because of the trend this year, I pulled it out no matter if I was wearing athleisure, blue jeans, or a dress. Great investment (with a kickin’ London sites lining!)
As someone from Boston/Cape Cod... the preppy, Coastal Grandma, Academia (parochial school) this has been my style since birth...lol. Two items i might add would be a shift dress and aviator sunglasses 😎
I finally have a nice collection of linen dresses and skirts, which are all I wear in high summer. I really wanted to have enough so I don’t have to wash and iron them all the time. I do re-iron them after every wearing, but it’s not as big a chore as ironing freshly-washed ones. I just don’t have a cool place to iron so I try to get it done first thing in the morning in the summer. My tip: wash linen in the delicate cycle and it won’t get as mangled and wrinkled. Nothing else is as comfortable as linen in real heat and humidity, so I think it’s worth the extra trouble of ironing, I just try to minimize it. Keeping styles tailored and simple also helps, no puffed sleeves, gathers, tiers, etc.
I have three trench coats and I sometimes put one on, but I always switch it for something that doesn't have a fussy belt. This video has inspired me to get rid of the trench coats. It's useful to have it confirmed that a trend is not for me - even when the trend is also an enduring classic - so thanks.
@Thestyleinsider. I simply let my belts dangle on the side, or sometimes I tie it loosely in back. I do love a Trench coat... it's a piece that's very stylish and much needed ❤
The gold-shimmer blouse you’re wearing and the navy print bomber are both on my Lily Silk wish list, I got the matching navy print trousers already. I love the lower front tie on the gold blouse, high-neck ties can feel too formal. Lily Silk is one of my favorite brands.
I actually thought the look with the metallic bomber and cargo pants looked super fun. Your colouring and height made it work, imo. I find your videos very helpful in breaking down the trends. Best wishes 😊
I love that orange Karen Walker, Runaway Shearling Camera Bag. I just googled to find it as I had no idea who it was by. I finally found it and ordered it online. I also love Lilly Silk items and have been buying them for some years now. My favorite pieces are the 100% cashmere turtlenecks which I wear regularly throughout the winter season. I have them in all of the offered colors. Greetings from Los Angeles
@@Thestyleinsider. I'll be able to use the Karen Walker orange bag with my bomber jacket that I bought months ago at Zara. However, it's still online as I just pulled it up. It's from the limited edition Rhuigi (Villaseñor) collab. It's the Satin Effect Bomber Jacket X Rhuigi. It's in the men's department of Zara, but the jacket fits my female body fine. I got a size medium and I wear a U.S. size 8 and/or 10 in most clothing and am 171-172 cm tall. I bought it a bit big in order to layer if I needed. I think that bomber jacket would also suit you well. Men's Zara has some nice pieces. I'll wear my bomber with my short orange skirt and orange lace-up Allbirds sneakers now that the rainy season is almost over. Greetings from Los Angeles
I love cardigans! I wear different weights all year long because im always cold. I thrifted a trench.. still looking for the perfect one for my height.. im short.5'3... love love love!!! Button downs.. alyssa Beltempo won me over to the beauty of the shirt. Im so glad you mention slim belts because i almost donated mine as wider belts seem to be everywhere.. i dont follow trends but i kinda get excited when something i already own is on point at the moment. Silly i know because who really cares right? 🤷♀️ Same w the denim and maxi skirt.. i keep vacillating but at the end of the day i still have the skirt.. i eant a white one ..
Love your vids,Leonie.Can you do a vid on how to dress a bit sexier and more feminine than your usual outfits(though I love your style),without looking overt.Thanks Leonie!
Whatever happened to the silk tee shirts? Aside from that I LOVE ,LOVE tees so I amalways on the look out for different fabrics,as well as colors.Thanks for the remainders enjoyed this video.
@MS: 'Yes' check the men's or boy's (youth) departments as recently purchased a long sleeved classic white shirt and am more than impressed with its fabric quality/workmanship/fit then others (woman's wear) I have in my closet not to mention it was much cheaper in price plus launders up beautifully. (Have worn it a few times now and haven't had anyone say 'hey you have a man's shirt on' ..... lol!) Also found a crew neck, short-sleeved t-shirt in a color I've been searching for in the same department and am just as pleased with it.
Love this video!❤ I like a nice cardigan. I would also consider a trench in a color other than beige that works for Spring. Beige tones are a classic, but if you're not into neutrals, try a fun color that can go with anything. I just did a video with a yellow toned trench that I can also see myself wearing in the Fall.
@@Thestyleinsider. The pair you're wearing looks less stiff and has better pockets than these, but I appreciate you trying! I'll have to continue the search for those holy grail cargo denims. I love how you've styled them with the bomber jacket.
@@Thestyleinsider. I would love to find a liquid silk shirt in a deep blue would be a better color for me. Maybe one will turn up at the thrift some day. 👍
Wow, love the new format. I gave up watching for a while because it seemed like so much time was taken up with the sponsored content. This is much better .
Love your channel but the metallic blouse with the cargo and the high tops are a fail 😬! It really doesnt look good at all, however the silk orange bomber is beautiful. Sorry
Everyone has different opinions…I feel, in my prospective, that anything that makes you happy in how you are styling your different garments is what you should do…
A wonderful Video ...and ob the top your Combo Just Look amazing. Very beautiful and classy💐🌞
Thank you so much!
Best video yet! Please let us know what basis are trending every season!
Great idea 💡
I bought metalllic soft gold Birkenstocks and love them! Thanks for giving me the confidence to try metallics ❤
Yay 😁
I LIVE in T-shirts. I end up wearing them all year around and love to layer button downs over them.

That blouse is the perfect metallic for you! It gives you such a nice warm glow ☀️
Aww thank you so much 😊
The bomber with the Karen Walker bag - perfect!
Thanks Sandy - I love that bag :)

The reversible jacket would be excellent for travel....its nice to get two looks in one peice
Good point - it would be fab for travel 👍🏼
Omg that metallic blouse is everything ❤❤❤
Thank you - I love it too 😊
Thanks for a great list and useful comments on each garment. /Marie from Sweden
Thank you!

Have you tried the small hand held steamers? I have one and it’s fab.
@@Thestyleinsider. : My thought as well since 'they work like a charm'.
Loved it!! Love that you provide the links for your items. Thank you!
You’re welcome ☺️

Why don't you just tie the belt at the back so it's out of the way?
@@Thestyleinsider. I do but it either feels like it's pulling, dangling or in an ugly knot. I might try a short one without a belt.

Yeeeeeess you are modeling again love love love - the more ways you style your gold shirt the more I love it
Thank you and yes the gold shirt is so much fun - I’ve been wearing it with dark denim jeans lately and it looks fab 😊

¿Trench in summer looks?
@@Thestyleinsider. Thank you so much! ❤
If you are long waisted, should you wear skinny belt?
Where can we get those denim cargo pants? I'm obsessed!
Here you go: go.magik.ly/ml/1t896/

Here you go: go.magik.ly/ml/1t896/
All the outfits are great if you are thin and six foot.
I don’t agree with that at all 😩
Liquid gold shirt!
It's a goodie right?
