    I could follow a million stylists but what makes Lydia great is the educational part, supports sustainability and so much outfit inspo without the shaming of what is "cool" or "in at the moment". I have been getting a lot of compliments since I am putting all your advice to work and into my (thrifted) wardrobe 😍

    • @ybe7011
      @ybe7011 2 года назад +9

      That's really impressive. It's nice to hear people are thrinfting instead of buying new. I need to get back into it. I'm sure you have a good eye!

      @marjoleinsmolders1630 2 года назад +4

      @@ybe7011 nah, just copy paste Lydias looks and you are there 😉 just thrift for the most timeless pieces and natural fibers. Another stylist that explains well is Justine Leconte, she also breaks down styling into simple science

      Same here! Putting an outfit together is not that difficult for me, I have already learned something 😅 but shoes is where it all goes wrong, so I really appreciate any video on this topic. Maybe even how to match the right shoes, in terms of color, style, etc. would be really helpful to me.

  • @natatatt

    I appreciate that you also showed examples with dresses or skirts for each boot. I wear skirts and dresses most of the time so it's helpful to see those specific examples.

    So helpful Lydia!!! I would love to hear from you on:
    - styles of footwear you think are classic for A/W (boots, sneakers, etc.) and will last season to season
    - work bag or workwear accessories in general (I am in desperate need of a durable but fashionable bag 😅)
    - choosing the right cut for blazers and trousers

    Great video! It really explains why some looks with boots don't turn out so good! As a suggestion, you could show in the end all the "right" and "wrong" next to each other, so we could visualize and understand it even better. Thank you!

    I have a pair of tall black Ralph Lauren boots that I wore all over Europe when traveling there to visit my daughter over a period of 10 years! They were beautiful and comfortable and it was hard to finally give up on them. But I purchased a newer, but similar version of them last year…. Truly the most versatile pair of footwear I own with classic good looks. Black boots are the bomb!

I do my best to adjust your ideas to my height and older age but the concepts I know can be applied to all ages and height. By the way your hair looks lovely.xx

    I would love if you could “shop your own wardrobe” to see how you come up with new ideas to put your outfits together. I would say I got quite good in combining things but often times I gravitate towards the same outfit concepts which makes it feel less interesting and less varied. Love your vids and Insta posts!

    💟 Yes, I enjoy your theme of finding the right "balance & proportion" between shoes & outfit choices. Right now I have one chunky ankle boot but it's not my favorite because it's weighty, so I may donate them.Anyway, I look forward to wearing my tall boots, both flats & heels & explore more style options!. I also wonder how you would style cowboy boots...I have a black/red pair which I've never worn! Thanks Lydia......

    @jarkosaurus 2 года назад +1

    Thanks for this video it was very interesting. This is why I find fashion and style so confusing though. I was literally reading an article from 2020 the other day that said the opposite of what you said about leaving a gap of skin between boots and a skirt. It said leaving a gap of 2-3 inches between ankle boots and a midi skirt was the perfect way to style them and not leaving a gap looks bad. There’s so much conflicting information out there on how to style things it becomes really disheartening and makes me feel like I probably look frumpy and outdated even when I’m really trying not to and have done my research.
