Idea if you like it.. your top 10 choices from asos, zara, netaporter... something like online shopping with you like you did once.. but more of a what would you buy if you had a black card for a day.. the one that pays itself 😂🙆🏻👏🏼
Oh god Lizzy, I love your videos. I am so over youtube because most fashion videos target teenage girls, but your videos really talk about things that are important once you are a business woman and can afford quality instead of a quantity of cheap things. As for recommendations -- have you done a culottes one? Trenchcoats / cardigans / white blouses /winter dresses? Also, I would definitely watch a repeat for work-wear appropriate knitwear and coats!! :)
Love testing basics, so much useful information! Would love to see an autumnal inspiration video, a few different outfits that would be good for autumn, maybe mixing highstreet and luxury, or maybe just highstreet? :) maybe even a complete GRWM with makeup and all :) I feel like this is the best season to really show your style trough layering and different prints, lengths, cuts, still mixing some summer pieces and introducing new comfy ones for colder days mmmm *sips coffee*
I love your Testing Basics series! I know you normally do these videos by testing different brands/prices, but I think it could be nice to do a series where each video is about a brand. For instance, I know you like jeans from &other stories, but maybe you could do a video comparing 5 different styles from them? (You could do this with Grlfrnd or Levi's, too, for instance). I say this because I know there are brands that you recommend, but sometimes I still don't know what style to go for! Anyway, just a thought.
when I saw this in my notifications, I immediately dropped everything I needed to do and watched this!! I'm loving this testing basics series!! Keep it up, Lizzy :)
Your reviews are thorough and you appear to love what you do which makes me like you even more. Keep up the good work. Your videos mean a lot. Thank you xx
She literally has the best collection of jeans, I have ever seen. I keep seeing all this extremely stylish girls with vintage 501s and it is so hard to come by in a size that is over 26, so to see her wear jeans that look like 501s and better is so amazing and great for me to purchase!
Wishlist for next Testing Basics would be for me dark floral dresses (mini and midi), blazers, faux fur coats, pointy toe ankle boots, scarfs ... love your videos! Thank you.
I ld love to see tasting basics in slip dresses, scarfs, hats (different kinds), belts! Also please do a video on how to wear summer pieces for fall/winter! Love you ❤️
So, do you feel like the sole at the back should be longer than the heel or not? I noticed with most of these, your heel seems to hang over the end of the shoe slightly, where I always thought your foot should be within the shoe. It must be a matter of preference. Also, would you ever wear leather trousers? I have several, and I consider them a basic. Perhaps they would be good for testing too? The price range and quality varies termendously in my experience.
I call these "shuffle shoes". They are not meant for walking more than one block, I don't think. Yet, I adore this style of shoe, and have 4 pairs of them. My fav are the Gucci black ones with the fur lining. Divine! One pair of mine is so wide, I need to tense up my foot and toes just to keep them on! I adore those Massimo Dutti ones, they look like Versailles style from the 1700's. Save those for a fancy skirt, at a dinner party! Those are so beautiful! Thanks for the vlog! xo from CA PS: wish you would have said how much you walked with them on!
I loved this one Lizzie. I have a pair of this style of shoes that I have only worn a couple of times because they rub on the side of my feet - good to hear that it's worth persevering! Can't wait to see the autumn/winter videos!
My fav of the series so far! Question: I am also a size 40, UK 7 but I tend to go one size up when I wear pointy toe shoes...do you think for u if u get size 41, these mules, say like the Rochas one will work well? Or u think they might just fall out?

i've never been a fan on pointed flat shoes but somehow you have me convinced! xxx
God I love this series. I've commented this before so apologies for repeating myself but I was wondering if you could do a denim skirt testing basics? Love them but find it so hard to find one that's the right shape/rise/stiffness!
Hey Lizzy! Do you think in the future when you do sit-downs in your videos that you could write in the description bar what shirt/brand you're wearing? I loved both the striped shirts you were wearing in this and I'm always wanting to know that info too if possible.
I bought the H&M ones at the beginning of the summer and I wore them a lot, I really like them. The funny thing is that they are so flimsy (as you said) that I need to take them of when I drive!! Great video as usual xx
Lizzy! Where the blue shirt you wore at the beginning of the video is from? It looks very chic on you! And I love how it's matching to your pillow and notebook :D
Xi Huang it is topshop from start of summer as I bought it after she showed it in one of her videos. I am loving the red stripe one she wore at the end of the video so will have to trawl her blog now to see where it is from 😄
I actually was thinking of getting slip in shoes recently, would be useful for when I'm shopping for clothes and shoes, and need to quickly slip in and out of shoes, or even walk to work in, before putting on my heels. also they're starting to look like a really nice style to me lol
I love your videos! You're doing such a great job! I would love to see testing basics on scarfs. Is Acne wool scarf really worth investing money? Or different scarfs for lower price are as good. Thank you :)
I sure love these videos. I'm moving to Russia in a few months an would love to see a video that looks at really heavy big coats! I am so unsure of what to buy, and what would also look fashionable! Thanks for your always careful and delightful content.
Great video Lizzy. I just discovered you last week and am loving your videos and your blog. Gives me lots of inspiration. And I'm lol-ing at your mom lurking in the background. So cute 😂
Love these videos and will continue watching them. Some constructive criticism however, you tend to buy from the same shops for each testing basics. Might be nicer to try different places, especially for the lower priced items?!
+Rosalyn Wood thank you for the comment! Are there any specific shops you have in mind? I avoid shops like primark/misguided/boohoo because I don't rate the quality at all and I'm always hoping to find something great for the most affordable ones - if you had any specific shops you want to see though then please do let me know!xx
Hi Lizzy , this is the 1st of your videos that I have watched . Loved the video and also, your mum is so adorable. That was so cute your mum walking in .. seeing you film the video and then just lurk in the background.. aww bless her. Love your style x
I love love love these videos! I would like to see camel coats - especially in the duster coat style, you can see all over Pinterest and Instagram. Greatings from Hamburg!
I must to wear backless shoes for my heels problem (the closed shoes hurt my heels), but is hard to find men’s backless shoes (only is easy to find the crocs, flip flops and backless sandals).
The Other Stories ones were my favourites, but agree are overpriced. Would you mind shutting your windows for filming in future please as I really found the traffic noise distracting.
In mine too. But as the traffic noise hasn't been an issue before I would think that the windows were open for this video. And if not, one of the furry mics might help!
The idea of this series is to compare similar items that could conceivably be worn as basics to lots of different people, not necessarily everyone everywhere. Like, testing wool coats doesn't pertain to me since I live in California, but would be relevant to people in colder climates.
Can't get enough of Testing Basics, such an amazing series! X
I can't get enough of her Mum!
April Izzard haha she's a cutie!
A testing basics on blazer would be a great choice, especially the checked ones! X

I would love more knitwear and coat testing basics this year as well!

I always love a good back less loafer. Have you ever tried on the Robert Clergerie ones? Love those!
I don't even like backless shoes but would always watch this series, it's always so insightful and interesting!

Life with Rachel This could tooooootally be named Testing Brands
So many trench coats in the shops now! Trench testing basics would be amazing. Work style trousers as well...
I would like to see scarfs!
Loved Anne's little cameo there!
Don't generally comment, but hahaha couldn't stop myself in this case - your mum is adoooorable, she reminds me of mine so much!
when I saw this in my notifications, I immediately dropped everything I needed to do and watched this!! I'm loving this testing basics series!! Keep it up, Lizzy :)
Your reviews are thorough and you appear to love what you do which makes me like you even more. Keep up the good work. Your videos mean a lot. Thank you xx
Your mum's cameo is amazing! Hahaha, cracked me up!
I love the testing basics series! So interesting and informative. I like how you explain everything and go deeper to details
I'd love to see an episode of testing basics about faux leather/suede jackets and maybe one with cotton jumpers 😊
She literally has the best collection of jeans, I have ever seen. I keep seeing all this extremely stylish girls with vintage 501s and it is so hard to come by in a size that is over 26, so to see her wear jeans that look like 501s and better is so amazing and great for me to purchase!
Wishlist for next Testing Basics would be for me dark floral dresses (mini and midi), blazers, faux fur coats, pointy toe ankle boots, scarfs ... love your videos! Thank you.
I love how Lizzy always has a new notebook, there's a yellow one, a grey one and today a blue one!! Can you tell I'm a stationery freak??😂😂❤
Hi Matina! I love notebooks too! Always carry one with me in my purse!
THOSE LEGSSSSS!!!! ❤️
It would be nice to do a few testing basics for winter so scarfs maybe but I don't think there would be much to talk about with them
I ld love to see tasting basics in slip dresses, scarfs, hats (different kinds), belts! Also please do a video on how to wear summer pieces for fall/winter! Love you ❤️

I thought the same thing, like Lizzy bought a size too small.
Yay perfect timing ! I'm currently on the hunt for some backless shoes 👠 :)
Great testing basics! I absolutely love the Dune shoes. I've got Gucci backless shoes and they are a staple in my wardrobe.
The ones from &Other Stories are real leather, I think that's why the price point is what it is :) Loving this series!
I just love the testing basics videos! This was another fab one, the H&M shoes had to be my fav
I watched the whole video even though I dont even like this type of shoe. But I love your outfits!
As for the sizing, most websites use manufacturers sizing, where as UK shops will have adjusted/converted sizing.
I call these "shuffle shoes". They are not meant for walking more than one block, I don't think. Yet, I adore this style of shoe, and have 4 pairs of them.

I always struggle to find backless shoes that I like or that stay on my feet, so I loved this! Xxx
Lizzy, great testing basics as always 👍🏻🙂 could I bother you to say where your red striped shirt at the end of the video is from? Thanks x
I loved this one Lizzie. I have a pair of this style of shoes that I have only worn a couple of times because they rub on the side of my feet - good to hear that it's worth persevering! Can't wait to see the autumn/winter videos!
Maybe a testing basics wool turtlenecks? I think that is such a basic for fall!
LOVE testing basics and LOVE backless shoes too, but it's already cold and rainy in the Netherlands 😫😭
these are literally the perfect uni night out shoes- might have to grab myself the h&m ones x
My fav of the series so far! Question: I am also a size 40, UK 7 but I tend to go one size up when I wear pointy toe shoes...do you think for u if u get size 41, these mules, say like the Rochas one will work well? Or u think they might just fall out?

Love these videos soso much!✨ And your mom 😩❤️
The 'And Other Stories' ones are my Fav... and they camouflage beautifully on your rug 😂😂
Lizzy! Where the blue shirt you wore at the beginning of the video is from? It looks very chic on you! And I love how it's matching to your pillow and notebook :D
Xi Huang it is topshop from start of summer as I bought it after she showed it in one of her videos. I am loving the red stripe one she wore at the end of the video so will have to trawl her blog now to see where it is from 😄
Sheila O'Riordan thanks a lot!! Yea the red one is gorgeous too!
I love your necklace, where is it from? Also love the testing basics series! Keep it up!
What an amazing series! Can you do a Testing Basics with trenchcoats please?
I actually was thinking of getting slip in shoes recently, would be useful for when I'm shopping for clothes and shoes, and need to quickly slip in and out of shoes, or even walk to work in, before putting on my heels.
also they're starting to look like a really nice style to me lol
I love your videos! You're doing such a great job! I would love to see testing basics on scarfs. Is Acne wool scarf really worth investing money? Or different scarfs for lower price are as good. Thank you :)
sweet! just bought the Massimo Dutti ones just for home. thank you x
I'm in shoe heaven 😍 it's a shame about the Massimo Dutti ones because they look stunning!
Your mom is adorable! ☺️
I sure love these videos. I'm moving to Russia in a few months an would love to see a video that looks at really heavy big coats! I am so unsure of what to buy, and what would also look fashionable!
Thanks for your always careful and delightful content.
Please do faux fur winter coats when the colder weather kicks in… perhaps in Jan when the sales hit as that's quite a pricey episode to do.
Great video Lizzy. I just discovered you last week and am loving your videos and your blog. Gives me lots of inspiration. And I'm lol-ing at your mom lurking in the background. So cute 😂
I know you've done a testing basics blazers before but could you do one on checkered blazers? there's loads on the high street at the moment!
I don't even like this type of shoe but I couldn't miss one of Lizzy's videos :)
Love these videos and will continue watching them. Some constructive criticism however, you tend to buy from the same shops for each testing basics. Might be nicer to try different places, especially for the lower priced items?!

What about Zara? Always wondering how durable and comfy zara shoes are.
and maybe uterque? (I think the price range may be similar to & other stories...)
Hi Lizzy , this is the 1st of your videos that I have watched . Loved the video and also, your mum is so adorable. That was so cute your mum walking in .. seeing you film the video and then just lurk in the background.. aww bless her. Love your style x
omg, im watching this and wearing the same shirt, love the video, would you do mom jeans- testing basics video?
Really like your red and white shirt at the end of the video. Anyone know where it's from?
I was madly in love with loafers; now I am in love with these shoes😳
The hm ones look like two little cute hearts from the front.
Hi Lizzy! I believe Rochas is pronounced "Row-SHAHS" :) Love your mum lurking in the background hahaha! She is a legend.
I love love love these videos! I would like to see camel coats - especially in the duster coat style, you can see all over Pinterest and Instagram. Greatings from Hamburg!
I must to wear backless shoes for my heels problem (the closed shoes hurt my heels), but is hard to find men’s backless shoes (only is easy to find the crocs, flip flops and backless sandals).
Your mother is so cute! You two seem to have such lovely relation, love it!
Testing basisc....makeup edition maybe?
I have narrow feet but still on the average size.. how do you keep on mules? Tricks please!!
the massimo dutti ones are so gorgeous! sad that they didn't really work out for you 😰
Hi Lizzy! Any tips on keepinf your feet and heels looking nice for wearing these shoes?
I'm so astonished that how elegant you could be. 💙

Your Mum in the background thinking we can't see her! And you've hung some art on the walls!
Great testing basics. :-)
Where is your striped shirt from? It looks so chic!
Try to put silicon inserts into one slipping off... it should help...
Hi @Lizzy Hadfield
Cute lady, do you review also stiletto or kitten heel mules?
Hugs from Belgium x
You've got killer legs! Lucky😥😱 love all the shoes❤
Scarf accessorizing video would be great
Anne😂😂😂😂 i love her
❤❤
The Other Stories ones were my favourites, but agree are overpriced. Would you mind shutting your windows for filming in future please as I really found the traffic noise distracting.
Ts M | In my house, you hear traffic noise with the windows closed!
In mine too. But as the traffic noise hasn't been an issue before I would think that the windows were open for this video. And if not, one of the furry mics might help!
Hi
Rochas is pronounced row-shah. You don't pronounce the 's'.
backless shoes are basics?
The idea of this series is to compare similar items that could conceivably be worn as basics to lots of different people, not necessarily everyone everywhere. Like, testing wool coats doesn't pertain to me since I live in California, but would be relevant to people in colder climates.
The echo 🙉
You're so beautiful today !! looks like other person ;-)
🌴 Aloha from Waikiki Beach Hawaii ! I love accent ! I love your style ! DM me anytime ! Let me know when or if you come to Hawaii ! Mahalo Nui loa ! 🍍
How terrible that the Dune ones aren't even lined in leather! £100 with a synthetic lining. That really annoys me! Can you tell...?! 😠😡😤😂 xx
