My style tip, no matter what you're wearing, is good posture, whether you are sitting, standing, or walking. Imagine there is a book on your head and you must always balance it. Shoulders back, chest out, and head up. Do this and no matter what you are wearing, you will always look fashionable. 😁
You saved me...I am an Alaskan transplant (also lived in T-ride for 5 years) currently thriving in Chicago. My function vs. fashion struggle is so very real! The pandemic gave me time to ponder my missteps and finally do something about it, which led me to your videos. I ventured to the heart of the city for the first time since the shutdown. My appointment was moved up and my rushed instinct was to throw on the usual uniform of jeans, sloppy tunic and black leather walking shoes. But my psyche heard your advice from the depths, and I half tucked my top, put on a belt, threw on some loafers and banished my utility metro bag for a lil brown crossbody that I bought in India but could never figure out how to wear. With the cute bun you taught me, I was out the door and feeling like a million bucks. Thanks to you, Chicago had a new shine today.
Really great tips.. thank you! I have a uniform too...and it's saved me many times. My holy grail style tip includes throwing on a scarf for colour and texture. In addition, a quick two minute hair-do fix using a hair accessory ( usually an up do it half up/pulled back half down) if my hair just isn't happening that day! :)
I say hi from Berlin/Germany. Usually I am loving lipstick as the best and fastest style trick but with face masks it makes no sense . This makes me sad. I‘m feeling naked without lipstick!
I know this feeling.. I still wear my red lippy beneath my mask. Have faith, the masks will be off one day. You'll know you have you lipstick on and that will elevate you, your mood and your style 🥰
I never knew a foot spray existed. Thank you for that! I might buy that and definitely need to buy the double-sided tape. BTW I love your leopard print heels 💖👠
My body style is little old lady. Before you say anything, you need to know that we are celebrating my 83 birthday this summer. I'm celebrating because it's mine and I get to. They are celebrating to keep me from having a party without thinking of them. I use to be your height and now I'm 5'1". I've always had more of my height in my legs witch has been accentuated. My problem is to care enough to make an effort and have enough energy to carry it off. People look better when they think they look better even at my age.
My mother in law is 86 and has to use a walker to get around, but when she gets dressed and puts her makeup on...Wow! She truly has a knack for picking the right colors with her beautiful silver hair! The fact that you are on this channel speaks volumes, no matter your body type. I hope you have such a wonderful day on your birthday, because IT IS YOURS AND YOU DO GET TO! You go girl!
My mom passed away 7 yrs ago at 93. She looked so beautiful with her brunette hair, bluest eyes and peach lipstick. She was wearing a snow white robe and I thought she never looked more lovely.
I love this video and I’m back to watch it again!This week I used the hidden belt trick to wear a dress as a skirt with a top twice, tied a sweater top to make an ill-fitting sundress into a high-waisted skirt, AND used the pregnancy rubber band trick with my jeans. It’s a pandemic weight gain miracle!! You are seriously helping my mental health as I grapple with dressing for the outside world again!
Thank-you for the Gucci dupe sunglasses - I bought them Thursday (Germany) got them next day not only do the look fantastic but stop the pollen irritating my eyes.
I just found your videos and watched 2 of them. I could watch them all day long. I'm 62 years old and feel like I'm too old to pull these tips off. I'm 5'2" with a rectangle shape. I'm always fighting with my mid section but I feel that with your tips and ideas, I can do this. Thank you!
Great tips! I always use the half tuck just a smidge to the right to give the illusion of slimming and camouflage my tummy. My tummy isn't big. It just feels more comfy and slightly effortless.
These tips are amazing, thank you. I'm gonna sign up for your check lists too. I want to sort through all my clothes and donate what I don't need to a women's shelter. These lists will be so helpful.
My style tip is wear heels to improve your posture! They don’t need to be high heels, I find that even 1” helps. And just as important, learn how to walk in them so that you feel confident. 👠👡👢 This style tip also elevates my basic outfits and it looks like I amke an effort . ♥️
Your posture in the right pair of heels totally makes the outfit for sure!!! Two quickish stories about heels . ....when my daughter was in her early teens she wanted heels so badly that she begged me for a pair she had seen while I was shopping for a pair of shoes myself. Long story longer....I said.....yes you may have a pair of heels but only if you can walk in them like a lady and not look like a truck driver! I can't tell you the concentration that went into the walk inside the store as she assured me she can indeed walk like a lady! Well ...she decided she didn't really want them after all BUT when she graduated high school the teacher announcing each girls name , paused they individually walked up to be presented with their diploma, told her after the ceremony that she noticed my daughter was the only one that walked in heels like a lady! 😂😂😂 seee...praxtice works! The second story also is around my daughter's prom when I told her she could have any heels she wanted but two rules....ladies never take them off at the dance (not when you spend so much time and money to get ready and buy the perfect outfit you just don't kick off the shoes and go barefoot) so they better feel good when you buy them and secondly you never lift your gown up when you walk but rather have the dress hemmed correctly to show a little shoe and is short enough to allow you to walk with the skirt part of your long dress left alone. She did it then and still does that today. 😊
Please be aware that heels do NOT improve your posture. Yes, they are fashionable and I am not saying you should never wear them but be aware they are NOT good for your feet or posture. Take it from a 50+ person watching her friends having bunion surgeries - be smarter now so you can still be wearing your heels when you “need” them later.
I'm in my 20s, just discovered your channel and I'm obsessed with your style. It's so chic and beautiful. Can't believe you are in your 40s. Your dress sense makes you look more ounger and modern than most women in their 20s lol
Let me tell you, taking outfit selfies has been a game changer for me! In addition to outfit inspiration, I can refer back to see what looked best, what I wear most, what I was wearing at this time last year, etc. Sometimes it jogs my memory about an article of clothing or an accessory that I forgot I had. Lastly, it's helped me to define my personal style & see how my style has changed over the past 5 years.
i’m at that weird age where aging is becoming real and quite frankly uncomfortable. i just found your channel and am sooo grateful for this guidance. seriously, it’s beyond helpful and oddly comforting. thank you so much 🥹💛
Welcome to my channel! I am so glad that you are here and finding my videos helpful. This is a tough journey we are on, but we're in this together! Thanks for watching. xo
Erin, please do an updated video for those of us reworking our wardrobes while in lockdown on color theory for wardrobes and makeup. It gets confusing and you have such a fantastic way of simplifying concepts. ❤️
This video is one of my fav videos of u. It is really gives me something to know n learn more n more. U r so stylish woman. I adore u. Btw, my style tips is wearing a high waist 7/8 trousers rather than jeans (skinny, straight) coz my body type is pear n wear white blouse or black bodysuit, and loafer or 5 cm heels. Thank u. Gbu
Is it possible that in the course of your life (under the influence of say menopause, for not mentioning it ;-) your body shape changes? I was a hourglass, it seems to me now that I am evolving into a apple.
While your bone structure usually stays the same, weight does redistribute in different ways and can affect your shape a bit especially in the bust and waist. I hope this helps! xo
Thank you so much. This was a much-needed video. I use clear hair ties for my belts and t-shirt hacks. I am 4'11" and often run into fit challenges. These have come in handy so many times.
Phew YOU DID IT Packed full with hacks and tips that I for one aged 58 cannot do without. So glad that I have taken photos of my favourite outfits which I can refer to whenever I draw a blank but your videos have made shopping in my wardrobe fun and I am no longer mechanically dressing in the mornings especially during lockdown still mentally planning my WFH outfits.
Many great tips, Erin! My favorite is from a page in your book! Take pictures! It works! When you get dressed and have that I feel great feeling, snap a pic. I tried this trick last year when my husband and I went to Europe for our "you retired" celebration. You had taken a celebratory trip to Paris earlier that spring and shared your picture book. I wanted to be in the moment to experience all the trip had to offer but also feel stylish, confident and comfortable. All the while fit all that style in 1 carry on and 1 roller. Leading up to our trip I took pictures of my favorite outfits for; hot days, city days, mountain days, casual dining and fancy dining, theater nights, cruise nights, the Eiffel Tower and beach days that turn into nights! The trip of a lifetime which started to feel overwhelming became simply elegant! 📸📒👗💝
Love seeing these tips, a fantastic reminder for us! My husband and I argue about the half tuck... he says I look messy and like I just rolled out of bed😂😂😂 I tell him to just do you!
The tool for making belt holes is sometimes difficult to wrestle through the leather. I recently discovered that it makes the task much easier and quicker to use a power drill from your garage to drill whatever size hole, then finish it off with the belt hole tool.
Thank you. I learn a lot. I am proud of myself because some of your tips I have been doing for years. Especially the classic uniformed looks. Propably because I attend Catholic school and was in the military. Changing 2-5 times before I walk out the door is ludicrous. Plus, my mother did not allow, even on weekends for play, & of course never for special social occasions. I knew what I was wearing before bed. No sewing, ironing or time wasting hysterics in the morning. 😄 Age 75. 😉 I utterly enjoyed all 20 minutes. Well done! I subscribed.
Another great hair tie hack for your jeans that are way too too tight to button: put the tie through the button hole as you did. Put one end of the tie through the other end and pull. Now hook that end over your button. Love you! You’ve helped and supported so many of us women with our fashion! Thank you! ❤️
My style tip is for people who don’t like their arms but want still want to coverage in the warmer months. I do a search for tops with sheer sleeves on websites and usually find something. I like sheer sleeves over short or 3/4 because they are airy and cooler than regular fabrics but give me enough coverage to feel covered and confident.
Yes! If you've watched the Netflix series Grace and Frankie, Lily Tomlin plays a hippie chick and always had on some type of concert t-shirt with sheer sleeves to cover her arms. It looked stylish and did the trick!
@@tammieparrishmiller3669 I haven't watched this, so... a sheer sleeve top _under_ that concert t-shirt? I have never seen concert t-shirts with sheer sleeves. I don't like to show my arms (I just never remember to do the toning exercises!) but luckily for me, I live where we hardly ever get 90 degree weather or "worse". ;-)
My favorite blazer brand is Veronica Beard. Her blazers are expensive, but are high quality and classic in style. One of my favorite basics from her line is the Scuba blazer. You can buy "dickeys" seperatly and zip them in and out for lots of different looks. Here is a link: rstyle.me/+7YVPfYoG1NWIjkd_M-7d6w . Nordstrom also carries a great selection of her blazers: rstyle.me/+jaee3f-UymhDq3bPJxanuQ . If you are looking for a less expensive options...These are a favorite for the price and it comes in a ton of colors: rstyle.me/+Ux7jrMZvHM_MCs4VuO3woA
If you love the look of a certain bralette but it doesn’t have enough support, wear a strapless bra underneath. The strapless will give your chest the right shape, and the elastic band on the bottom of the bralette will prevent the strapless from falling down like all strapless bras usually do.
Hi-I loved this video. I will definitely be using some of these hacks. Could you do a video on accessory trends for 2020? I am so into the idea of 80/20 and believe the 20 usually includes accessories to keep your wardrobe current. Thanks so much for all you do. I am so tired of looking frumpy working from home & recently decided to switch to dresses for the summer. They just make me feel uplifted and put together on camera. This works for me even when they are casual but stylish. Plus, they are so easy to throw on! I also recently embraced by skinny apple shape and am really working to focus less on clothing trends and more on what looks good on my body shape so I always feel my best. Be well and stay safe!
I love the t-shirt tricks and tips. I receive so many new t-shirts from work and desparately needed a new way to style them so I don't look like everyone else. Thank you!
Thank you, Patricia! A couple things that may help include wearing shapewear to help give you a smoother line and to try and draw attention to other parts of your body. You can do this by wearing a more neutral color on the bottom and a more fun print or color on top or wearing a pretty necklace to draw the eye up. Wearing a longer top can also help camouflage this area. xo
Erin PLEASE do a video on layering!!! I try and try and it never looks right! I don't know what I'm doing wrong! I do the obvious things, paying attention to fit & color, but it's just not happening. Thanks! I've learned so much from you already, and am now expanding my repertoire considering styles I never did before.
Great suggestion! We do have this video on layering specifically for the cold weather: ruclips.net/video/wOHS7Q6ktXw/видео.html. Erin's signature style really is all about layering so you will also find layered options in almost all of her videos. We will add this topic to our list! ~Team Busbee
@@BusbeeStyle Actually what I really meant was what makes a sweater go over a particular shirt, or shirt over a cami. Why is it when I put a sweater over a tailored shirt it does not look sharp, just sloppy.
These are all great, Erin! Especially liked #4 at 2:13 where you changed the entire look of your shirt - _very cool._ And I totally hear you on the inseam length: being just over 5'1" now, cropped jeans are never cropped on me, lol! :) Good stuff - thank you! Shannon.
Thank you! One suggestion...take pictures of your outfits on days when you feel great in your clothes. Over time you will see a pattern within these photos that will help you find your style uniform. I hope this helps! xo
Wow! you talked so fast! so perfectly! I love love love all of your videos! Do you have info on the white lacy camisol (under the white blazer) you are wearing? Thank you
Thank you so much, Kelly! i have some spring videos up that may help, but I have lots of summer content coming soon. Here are the spring videos: ruclips.net/video/gvpNP1uQKvs/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/GrQapkRq0Rc/видео.html
excellent❣️for fly away hairs on my head… i use a clear , no color mascara to gently comb down which keeps them in place. i have also used on my eyebrows to help position and keep brows in place.
Been doing a version of the half tuck since the 90s when people always had stuff tucked in...I always thought it made them look weird and old. Even today if you don't have the body or the right clothes you shouldn't tuck everything in
Gene......I agree. Jeans, White-T, and the gold jewelry you mentioned ( you can’t help but look good ) it’s a small detail that changes the whole look. I personally would add pearls to your list ( strand, earrings ). Like gold their classic....
I’ve tried the stick top into jeans. This is TOTALLY Impractical! If you stand up straight, ok. Just don’t sit down and get up again. Im not able to make this work (many attempts).
This doesn't work on every fabric, and you do have to be wearing a top that is a bit on the longer side to keep it tucked in. Still something I love and will stand behind! xo
Thank you very much for this video and your many other videos. I have only recently discovered your channel and really love your style and videos. I’d be very interested in style ideas for vegans (e.g. vegan leather bags / clothing etc.). There are several new vegan handbag options available now (Urban Expressions, Rothys, Pinkstix, Ivy & Fig, De-Vesi) but it’s not easy to pick which look the best and would “upgrade” an outfit or have a luxury feel to them. I’d love to see you do a video on that...?! Good luck and again: Thank you very much!!!
Hi Erin, great video. I use many of your tips. You don’t have to race and talk fast. Even if the video is longer we will keep watching 😉 Here’s a suggestion for another video, just as you have gone over the body types, how about doing a video (or a series of them) about skin tone and how to find the colors that best suit your complexion? And maybe even how to wear the colors that may not be the most flattering for you. There’s a lot of theories out there and it gets confusing. If you have any insight about color it would be greatly appreciated.
Super cute ideas especially for Covid when shopping in the closet becomes the better option. It's after and cheaper and allows you to see your old wardrobe in a whole new way. Thank you! 💙
This is an embarrassing question, but what type of panties hide pads. Unfortunately I suffer from mild incontinence and must wear protection every day. I am lopking for panties that will keep these things hidden!
Try researching period panties. They are washable underwear that absorb menstrual fluids and may possibly work for small bladder leaks. Knix leakproof period panties are an example. Ihope this helps!
I often wear heels (not necessarily stilettos) with my jeans and I think it looks classy and sophisticated. You can certainly opt for a flat of a boot if that is your preference. xo
I know this is a 2 year old video but I clicked on the link for the style guide and it took me to the product listing on Amazon…this paperback is nearly $300!!! This has to be a mistake. Who is going to buy that?
This price is not accurate... We sold it originally for around $40, and you can see that the Amazon listing actually shows it is a used copy being sold - not sold by me. Unfortunately we have been having trouble getting this removed as we would like. I stopped production because it wasn't quite what I was hoping for... but have since created an amazing online course called Style Made Simple that you can take a look at here! erin-busbee-1ce9.mykajabi.com/style-made-simple-youtube We also added a new Body Shapes Guide to the resources of this course just if purchased today through 4/2 as well! xo
My style tip, no matter what you're wearing, is good posture, whether you are sitting, standing, or walking. Imagine there is a book on your head and you must always balance it. Shoulders back, chest out, and head up. Do this and no matter what you are wearing, you will always look fashionable. 😁
That's a great tip! xo
I agree; confidence.
Yep and do a catwalk style and you’re all set to go.
And a slouch will ruin any outfit
Excellent tip. It is amazing how many gals out there these days are slouching, they look so beat down and 0 confidence, what is up with that???
Now in my late 40s I follow your fashion advice and I look more put together and feel super confortable and confident!
Thank YOU!

I say hi from Berlin/Germany. Usually I am loving lipstick as the best and fastest style trick but with face masks it makes no sense . This makes me sad. I‘m feeling naked without lipstick!
I hear you! This is definitely a problem right now. xo
Do a statement winged eye liner instead to put the focus on the eyes.
Try a 24hr formula lipstick! Really works under there. No transference onto the inside of the mask
@@alisonsneed3707 okay , 24 hour lipstick? I have plenty, BUT WE STILL HAVE TO WEAR MASK, 😊
I know this feeling.. I still wear my red lippy beneath my mask. Have faith, the masks will be off one day. You'll know you have you lipstick on and that will elevate you, your mood and your style 🥰
I never knew a foot spray existed. Thank you for that! I might buy that and definitely need to buy the double-sided tape. BTW I love your leopard print heels 💖👠
I think the spray is a game changer. Double sided tape also comes in handy in so many circumstances. xo
Where do you get the foot spray?
My body style is little old lady. Before you say anything, you need to know that we are celebrating my 83 birthday this summer. I'm celebrating because it's mine and I get to.

Another great hair tie hack for your jeans that are way too too tight to button: put the tie through the button hole as you did. Put one end of the tie through the other end and pull. Now hook that end over your button. Love you! You’ve helped and supported so many of us women with our fashion! Thank you! ❤️
Great tip, Catherine! I have actually included that one in an upcoming video...Stay tuned. xo
I love these tips, Erin! Hope you and your family are doing well and staying safe 😊
Thank you! You too! xo
Great advice! Thank you Erin
Would you give you a link for the gorgeous blue blazer you were wearing? Love your videos. Thank you.
My style tip is for people who don’t like their arms but want still want to coverage in the warmer months. I do a search for tops with sheer sleeves on websites and usually find something. I like sheer sleeves over short or 3/4 because they are airy and cooler than regular fabrics but give me enough coverage to feel covered and confident.
Great tip! Thank you for sharing! xo
Yes! If you've watched the Netflix series Grace and Frankie, Lily Tomlin plays a hippie chick and always had on some type of concert t-shirt with sheer sleeves to cover her arms. It looked stylish and did the trick!
Thanks for the sheer sleeve trick.😍
@@tammieparrishmiller3669 I haven't watched this, so... a sheer sleeve top _under_ that concert t-shirt? I have never seen concert t-shirts with sheer sleeves.
I don't like to show my arms (I just never remember to do the toning exercises!) but luckily for me, I live where we hardly ever get 90 degree weather or "worse". ;-)
One of the best videos of yours I’ve seen so far. Love it! So many little hair-tie hacks I would have never thought of. Thank you! 🙏
You are so welcome! Glad it was helpful! xo
HI Erin, thank you for the tips .Am happy to see you in a such good mood !
You are so welcome, Stella! xo
Thanks Erin for all your fashion and style tips. I love all your videos. All helpful and really makes me feel better about myself. ❤
You are so welcome! I'm so glad that you find my videos helpful! xo
What is your favorite blazer label? I need the basics black / tan / white SOS !
My favorite blazer brand is Veronica Beard. Her blazers are expensive, but are high quality and classic in style. One of my favorite basics from her line is the Scuba blazer. You can buy "dickeys" seperatly and zip them in and out for lots of different looks. Here is a link: rstyle.me/+7YVPfYoG1NWIjkd_M-7d6w . Nordstrom also carries a great selection of her blazers: rstyle.me/+jaee3f-UymhDq3bPJxanuQ . If you are looking for a less expensive options...These are a favorite for the price and it comes in a ton of colors: rstyle.me/+Ux7jrMZvHM_MCs4VuO3woA
@@BusbeeStyle THANK YOU!!! :)
If you love the look of a certain bralette but it doesn’t have enough support, wear a strapless bra underneath. The strapless will give your chest the right shape, and the elastic band on the bottom of the bralette will prevent the strapless from falling down like all strapless bras usually do.
That is a great tip. I often recommend that for women who love the Free People Bralette, but need more support. Thank you for sharing. xo
So helpful! No swell foot spray? I had no idea that exists
Never heard before best ever tips... thank you, for the uniform tip alone is a game changer.
Hi-I loved this video. I will definitely be using some of these hacks. Could you do a video on accessory trends for 2020? I am so into the idea of 80/20 and believe the 20 usually includes accessories to keep your wardrobe current. Thanks so much for all you do. I am so tired of looking frumpy working from home & recently decided to switch to dresses for the summer. They just make me feel uplifted and put together on camera. This works for me even when they are casual but stylish. Plus, they are so easy to throw on! I also recently embraced by skinny apple shape and am really working to focus less on clothing trends and more on what looks good on my body shape so I always feel my best. Be well and stay safe!
Thank you so much, Ashley! That's a great suggestion! xo
My style tip are dresses, specially in warm weather, they are convenient, elegant and cool.
Yes, I totally agree! xo
There is nothing like a light flirty summer dress.
The soma bras are fine for those that do not have large breast..... their cup sizes do not go up high enough.
My favorite style only goes up to a G cup, but they have a selection that go up to size I.
Great advice!! Did you link your beautiful gold bracelet? It has me drooling
These tips are remarkable. We all are so lucky to have your expertise in style tips. Your looking so glowy and beautiful Erin! Thank you for this ❤️
Thank you so much! You are so kind! xo
Thank you very very much!!
I love this! I noticed the text for triangle and inverted triangle in the body type section are switched, just FYI
Thank you for letting me know. xo
Loved this video Erin! Also, your entire look was glam today! Hair, makeup and earrings!! A+💯
Thank you so much! xo
Nice tips. So cool.
Glad you think so! xo
I love the t-shirt tricks and tips. I receive so many new t-shirts from work and desparately needed a new way to style them so I don't look like everyone else. Thank you!
You are so welcome, Lori! xo
I like using the fourth tip on loose fitting dresses, sometimes I put multiple hair ties too.
Hi Erin 💞👋 very useful tips!! For the days that I don't know what to wear, I just look YOUR outfits and get inspired 🌸🌼 kisses from Greece 💚💙💜💛
I'm so glad! xo
Thanks for all your tips! You mentioned “lower tummy” Have you any tips to camouflage the bulge??
Thank you, Patricia! A couple things that may help include wearing shapewear to help give you a smoother line and to try and draw attention to other parts of your body. You can do this by wearing a more neutral color on the bottom and a more fun print or color on top or wearing a pretty necklace to draw the eye up. Wearing a longer top can also help camouflage this area. xo
Busbee Style what is the best shapewear u recommend us ????(good, pretty, and cheap) 😂😂😂
Thank you - my issue too! So frustrating because it's difficult to hide.
Love it!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Erin PLEASE do a video on layering!!! I try and try and it never looks right! I don't know what I'm doing wrong! I do the obvious things, paying attention to fit & color, but it's just not happening. Thanks! I've learned so much from you already, and am now expanding my repertoire considering styles I never did before.
Great suggestion! We do have this video on layering specifically for the cold weather: ruclips.net/video/wOHS7Q6ktXw/видео.html. Erin's signature style really is all about layering so you will also find layered options in almost all of her videos. We will add this topic to our list! ~Team Busbee
@@BusbeeStyle THANKS
@@BusbeeStyle Actually what I really meant was what makes a sweater go over a particular shirt, or shirt over a cami. Why is it when I put a sweater over a tailored shirt it does not look sharp, just sloppy.
Buenos días Erin! Such wealth of tips, totally practical. Hate thongs myself. Total torture!
Gracias, Alma! xo
These are all great, Erin! Especially liked #4 at 2:13 where you changed the entire look of your shirt - _very cool._ And I totally hear you on the inseam length: being just over 5'1" now, cropped jeans are never cropped on me, lol! :) Good stuff - thank you! Shannon.
You are so welcome, Shannon! xo
Was it just me that jumped out of my skin at the tape rewind? 😂 Thanks dear Erin.💗 Loved these hacks. Wish I knew what my "uniform" is🤯... 🇦🇺
Thank you! One suggestion...take pictures of your outfits on days when you feel great in your clothes. Over time you will see a pattern within these photos that will help you find your style uniform. I hope this helps! xo
@@BusbeeStyle Thank you Erin.. oooh will take pics... Thank you
Wow! you talked so fast! so perfectly! I love love love all of your videos! Do you have info on the white lacy camisol (under the white blazer) you are wearing? Thank you
Love your videos. Have you done a summer fashion 2020 video? It’s already hot where I live.
Thank you so much, Kelly! i have some spring videos up that may help, but I have lots of summer content coming soon. Here are the spring videos: ruclips.net/video/gvpNP1uQKvs/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/GrQapkRq0Rc/видео.html
Thanks! For your short haired viewers like me, small binder clips work well to secure the ends of belts too (assuming they are hidden by your jacket.)
Great tip! Thank you for sharing, Teresa! xo
Teresa, I have short hair as well, but I’ll pick up some hair ties at the dollar store to gave on hand.
Best vids EVER.. you rock
Thank you, Cassandra! xo
Thank you very much for this video. Great tips ! ... and you look so beautiful...younger and younger.
Sunglasses my thing... I have a few.. yep.. no makeup sunglasses on classic!
Love this!!!! How do you figure out your “style uniform”? I’m changing as I age…..
love your style tips fresh and relevant for all ages even us oldies at 59 . lots of love from new zealand.
Glad you like them, Tina! xo
Hi Erin - WOW great video. It's a keeper on my playlist. I've seen your tips in your past videos but having them all in one video is great. Thanks!
I was hoping that putting them all together in one video would be helpful! I appreciate your feedback, Helen! xo
Wondering your suggestions on casual. Plus as weather starts getting colder...fleece? Sweatshirts? Vests?
Such a fun and awesome video!! Thank you, Erin 🥰
Where are the aviator sunglasses from that you are wearing at the beginning of the video?
I use a hammer and nails to punch holes in my belts. I should add I'm also a construction worker.
I love your bright, beautiful face, and inspiration 💜 ✌
Thank you so much! You are so kind! xo
Great tips. I look forward to these nuggets of information you share with us. BTW, that t-shirt and earrings look WOW on you.
Oh thank you! That is so sweet of you! xo
High quality video and very useful recommendations, thank you Erin 🤗
You're so welcome! xo
Your sample shows inseam measurement from belly button to ankle. Google shows inseam measurement from crotch to ankle. Which one is it?
excellent❣️for fly away hairs on my head… i use a clear , no color mascara to gently comb down which keeps them in place. i have also used on my eyebrows to help position and keep brows in place.
Great Tips. I'm definitely going to start an outfit photo album. (I think you switched the triangle and inverted triangle body types).
Thank you! That is one of the most helpful things you can do. Yes, thank you, I did catch that error. xo
SunshineSharon ........ I agree ..... and where’s the pear ?
Been doing a version of the half tuck since the 90s when people always had stuff tucked in...I always thought it made them look weird and old. Even today if you don't have the body or the right clothes you shouldn't tuck everything in
I used to wear holes in my pants but it happened naturally. Ole or old school. Loved the cuff.
Thank you. Great summary of some essential things we have to remember. :-)
Glad it was helpful! xo
It was perfect. My styling tip, gold jewelry. Simple hoops, bangles, and chains. Will upgrade every outfit.
Thank you and great tips! xo
Gene......I agree. Jeans, White-T, and the gold jewelry you mentioned ( you can’t help but look good ) it’s a small detail that changes the whole look. I personally would add pearls to your list ( strand, earrings ). Like gold their classic....
Great video! My style tip, always wear a smile!
Thank you, Linda! Such an important tip! xo
Nicely done 👍
I love your styling tips. You explain them very well.
Glad you like them! xo
Erin,you never disappoint, great job
I’ve tried the stick top into jeans. This is TOTALLY Impractical! If you stand up straight, ok. Just don’t sit down and get up again. Im not able to make this work (many attempts).
This doesn't work on every fabric, and you do have to be wearing a top that is a bit on the longer side to keep it tucked in. Still something I love and will stand behind! xo
Thank you very much for this video and your many other videos. I have only recently discovered your channel and really love your style and videos. I’d be very interested in style ideas for vegans (e.g. vegan leather bags / clothing etc.). There are several new vegan handbag options available now (Urban Expressions, Rothys, Pinkstix, Ivy & Fig, De-Vesi) but it’s not easy to pick which look the best and would “upgrade” an outfit or have a luxury feel to them. I’d love to see you do a video on that...?! Good luck and again: Thank you very much!!!
Thank you so much for the suggestion! xo
Hi Erin, great video. I use many of your tips. You don’t have to race and talk fast. Even if the video is longer we will keep watching 😉 Here’s a suggestion for another video, just as you have gone over the body types, how about doing a video (or a series of them) about skin tone and how to find the colors that best suit your complexion? And maybe even how to wear the colors that may not be the most flattering for you. There’s a lot of theories out there and it gets confusing. If you have any insight about color it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you, Laeah! That's a great suggestion! xo
Super cute ideas especially for Covid when shopping in the closet becomes the better option. It's after and cheaper and allows you to see your old wardrobe in a whole new way. Thank you! 💙
You're so welcome! xo
This is an embarrassing question, but what type of panties hide pads. Unfortunately I suffer from mild incontinence and must wear protection every day. I am lopking for panties that will keep these things hidden!
Try researching period panties. They are washable underwear that absorb menstrual fluids and may possibly work for small bladder leaks. Knix leakproof period panties are an example. Ihope this helps!
Thank you! I'm learning so much ❤
What amazing great tips ~~~~!!!!I LOVE YOUR ALL BRILLIANT INFORMATION.
THANKS 😊 🙏 😊
You are so welcome! xo
Not stylish...........stiletto heels with skinny jeans or any jean..........it looks cheap/trashy (just my opinion)
I often wear heels (not necessarily stilettos) with my jeans and I think it looks classy and sophisticated. You can certainly opt for a flat of a boot if that is your preference. xo
New subscriber here from Kennewick, WA. Hello and thank you for the tips. I consider myself a "Fashion- Felon" so your input is greatly appreciated.
Welcome, Kimberly! SO glad you are finding my content helpful! xo
I know this is a 2 year old video but I clicked on the link for the style guide and it took me to the product listing on Amazon…this paperback is nearly $300!!! This has to be a mistake. Who is going to buy that?
This price is not accurate... We sold it originally for around $40, and you can see that the Amazon listing actually shows it is a used copy being sold - not sold by me. Unfortunately we have been having trouble getting this removed as we would like. I stopped production because it wasn't quite what I was hoping for... but have since created an amazing online course called Style Made Simple that you can take a look at here! erin-busbee-1ce9.mykajabi.com/style-made-simple-youtube We also added a new Body Shapes Guide to the resources of this course just if purchased today through 4/2 as well! xo
These are amazing tips... thank you!
I’m love ❤️ it’s thank you so much
Can you share the details on your long necklace you’re wearing for the double sided tape tip? Thanks!
Sure thing! Here is the link: rstyle.me/+361KudB0Q_JfyzukPjXR2g
