    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
    @natatatt 2 года назад +30

    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.

    @babesandra 2 года назад +42

    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

    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!

  • @fernandafernandespinheiro4767
    @fernandafernandespinheiro4767 2 года назад +27

    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 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!

    Hi there. I've not seen your channel before and I was initially going to make a comment about maybe showing what does work instead of what doesn't work. And then I watched and you kind of did. I wonder if one day you could do something exactly like what you did here. But then with perhaps a few outfits, generic-ish, generic isn't right. Classics. Which you did. But with a top. Then have the three boots. And a dark and light blazer or coat. And show what's best and why. Like that first outfit, I would have loved to see what your finer boot liked like with it? Then its a direct comparison. And then adding a blazer helps the outfit how? Cause what if the air con in your work building is one of those crazy ones that make inside in winter feel like a sauna and in summer a freezer? I hope that makes sense cause that would be awesome.
