    This capsule is so elegant, I can only aspire to look as chic! I’d need a different colour palette though, the pale colours terrify me and I’d spend the whole day worrying I was going to spill something down myself 🫣 I love the coat in particular. Would love to see some examples of flat shoes you’d put with these outfits as I can’t wear heels.

    Fabulous video. When you introduced Lili Silk a couple of years ago, it became a favorite place for me to find what I would call quiet luxury. The styles are timeless, and the colours are universal. I find that a high-quality leather bag and shoes with silk is enough to be presentable anywhere. I love Hermes scarves, and someday I will buy one or two. I have been collecting silk scarves for 20 years, which are kept in new condition.

    Love it (and the hair!) but satin does not flatter me- too many bumps! Bought the Lauren herringbone coat you recommended. It's a bit big but as Nordstrom doesn't exchange (I live in Canada), decided to keep and will have it tailored or will wear with thick sweaters. Considering having it shortened to knee length as I am 5' 3" and think knee length might be better. Your thoughts on coat and dress length for the shorter woman?
    A brand you might consider reviewing is Artizia. Japanese design, good price point, quiet elegance, especially their pants.

  • @elizabethpetrie2732
    @elizabethpetrie2732 2 месяца назад +16

    A beautiful, elegant capsule for those who can wear tans, beiges, off-whites, etc. Sadly, these colours don’t really suit me at all. My fall/winter colours are black, white, grey, and navy, with “pops” of red and burgundy. Everything goes with everything else. And although I love the skirt, I had one years ago, good quality, but it became “rump-sprung” after only a few wearings. So I will be sticking to wool and wool blends.

    • @hiannahgus574
      @hiannahgus574 2 месяца назад +5

      The beige/tan/etc colors don’t suit my pale, pinkish Irish toned complexion, but the colors which look good on you are also more suitable for me, too. I have a capsule wardrobe in our colors which work well for me, too.

      I can't wear them either, look for winter white in knits and pearl white in silk. If you are lucky you can find a trench in a shade of taupe that has a slight pinky or mushroom cool undertone. Keep looking till you find one, don't go with the tan if it doesn't suit your colouring.

    Such an elegant collection, for subtly and not only for the great quality, design, and fine fabric. I tried out a few ivory pieces to pair with neutral tan and light beige, camel, or caramel and cinnamon. Moving into Fall, ivory will probably be included in the next winter line and waiting for the new staple purchases is in order to aquire a more curated look. Ralph Lauren and others featured a winter collection a few years ago that included equestrian designs in ivory, beige and brown core pieces.
    One year, his collection leaned heavily on a formal or dressed for the concert hall in black and off white. Another year, the Fall collection was a very Southwestern ranch look.

    Marie-Anne, I'm wondering if you could help. Maybe other women struggle with this as well. When it comes to formal attire, there are so many lacey dresses and large floral pieces for mature women. You have said in the past that this is aging. How can we find something that is truly flattering that we can wear again? I don't want to buy something I will never wear to another formal event. For reference, I am looking for something for the mother of the bride (my first time)!! Do other women struggle with formal attire? Where are some good places to look?

      yes there are so few choices for older women in formal dresses, and it's the same for my daughter who is only 29. Everything is either skimpy and tight for the teenage school formals, or matronly for older women. Do avoid lace and large floral prints, they are ageing. And lace always looks cheap and dated. You may be able to find a store that hires out dresses. Dresses bought for weddings hardly ever get worn again. My SIL spent over a thousand dollars on a MOB dress and jacket ensemble that I doubt she will wear again.

      @@SueRosalie Great point! Trying to be green as well. Where I live, they do have a dress donation event, and many who wouldn't be able to afford a dress are very happy to take them. It is such a waste to only be able to wear something once. It would be nice to be able to get something I might be able to wear again. My older friends also point out that the quality has really gone downhill as well (no linings and cheap materials).

    *QUESTION* Could you advise us on the appropriate length of sleeves on Chanel jackets and blazers? I know they can be pushed up, but I would like the option of wearing the sleeves at their full length as well. Sleeves that are too long scream "Frumpy!" to me.

      I have seen Chanel jackets with sleeves that hit the wrist and some that are hemmed at the mid forearm Mrs T - anything longer than the wrist looks too long for me

    I don’t understand how to make this work if I don’t look great in cream. Would grey work? I love the look though, and you look fantastic.

    I would love a similar quiet luxury wardrobe, but beige, tan, nude completely wash me out! What are some alternatives?

    I have several beautiful silk blouses however, having been a NYC girl and now residing in Florida, those beauties are buried in my closet. 😢

      I have lived in Florida all my life and currently have several silk pieces that I’m wearing often. It depends on the lifestyle perhaps.

    I'm 20- do these suggestions still apply? Also, is it possible to dress classy but also wear colour? I like to wear pinks, blues, and purples

      Bonjour Valentine - absolutely it is possible - I have very many younger followers - I only tend to put 'women over 50' as that is my main demographic. Young women still wish to look chic and elegant 😃 Ss for colour - I was careful at the beginning to say that if this colour palette does not suit you then choose colours that do 😃 so take the recommendations for garments and choose your colours 😃 watch here for the french chic colour test ruclips.net/video/J_uhCm9uE-w/видео.html
