I must say, Lydia. I completely understand your respect for your grandmother. My Granny Burke was the same. She lived until the ripe age of 100.5 and she looked just like our late HRH Queen Elizabeth. Her hosting and hospitality skills were mad. To this day she is my total inspiration for creating a welcoming and warm home. There is nothing like a home where the host cares deeply about everyone who walks through the door. Enjoy every second with your grandmother. ❤
My dad said you could always judge a man by how clean and polished his shoes were - my dad cleaned his shoes every night - they all had wooden shoe trees - he also cleaned mine and mum’s too - steamed the shoes if they were suede too - I miss him terribly (d:2017) he was such a wonderful human being, son, brother, husband, father and friend ❤
I loved hearing about your grandmother. I just took my grandfather to a elderly home yesterday, because it really is time that he has more support and help. And prior he’d hated the thought of it and been quite emotional about it. It is a big decision, but yesterday, going there with him, seemed to turn it around for him. I feel like it was such a special moment, and it warmed my heart. ❤ our memories of our grandparents are so special. They really do warm our hearts. If your grandmother would ever be up for it, you should film or record a conversation with her. Not necessarily for us, but more for you. For you to listen to later on. I did that with my grandmother, and it means the world. Anyway, long ramble, but just loved how you talked about your grandmother ❤
Am i the only one who made a photo of every single outfit from this video? Even though can’t afford shoes just yet. Lydia looks her best, in my opinion ❤❤❤
My husband and I thought about buying a holiday cottage but as we love to explore all of England we just stay in lovely places like spring cottage without all the hassle. Great vlog Lydia 👍🥰
Your couple trips this year have been so cozy and also so hilarious and sweet. The "Ali G" thing absolutely sent me too 🤣🤣🤣 Ali is so lovable! hahahahaha Thank you darlings for taking us along. Such a comfy long vlog. I kept smiling so much 🥰🥰
Fairfax and Favour also have an outlet. The prices are very reasonable considering this is a purchase that will last you a lifetime. They're so well made and just beautiful!
Lydia, as an American I had never heard of this brand until I recently started watching you. I’m so glad you’ve introduced me to them and to other British Brands as well. Thank you! 🩷
The services of the National Trust are endless from caring for the environment to safeguarding our heritage. And that feeling when you step inside a nurtured hall or manor that has been lovingly restored is priceless.
I had to watch this one again. It’s so cozy, and you and Ali are too cute! The property was also beautiful, and I can imagine a lovely stay there. Wait, you’re 1 away from a million! Early congratulations! 🎉🥂
Lydia, thank you for sharing your trip to the Cliveden House. What beautiful grounds and cottage you and Ali stayed on. It seemed so nice and relaxing and a perfect place for a get away. And the boots you modeled in the beginning are just beautiful!! 😊❤️
I just loved all of this… Every bit of it. You could not look better in blazers if you tried, and that Karen Millen dress that you created is sublime! And, if my husband and I ever get back to England, I would love to stay there! Thanks for letting us in on your lives!❤
I was lucky enough to grow up there when the Stanford university were using the house (pre hotel days) as my father worked for the NT, both of my parents had passed away when I married so we chose Cliveden as our venue as it felt like home, it’s just so beautiful & has a very interesting & somewhat scandalous history. Really glad you enjoyed your time there
I have so much respect for your grandmother. My grandmother is exactly the same and she is around your grandmothers age. I love the boots and I love the cottage
Itʻs November! Its time to start watching all of Lydʻs previous Vlogmasʻ to countdown to this yearʻs vlogmas...if youʻre doing a vlogmas, if not, itʻs still great to watch to countdown to December!
Love all the historic places you take us on, thank you. One pet thing I don’t like is in some restaurants how they serve your dinner on a board, apart from that looked beautiful.
Greetings from California. Great vlogs on lifestyles & fashion videos since the beginning , Mrs. Lydia Millen Gordon & Mr. Ali Millen Gordon. Inspirational. We remember the engagement video with the proposal. We felt like we were there. Thanks for filming & sharing the beauty of England. Congrats & Happy holidays from our channel.
48:20 Get a pebble ice one. GE makes an excellent one, I donʻt know if Amazon sells it in the UK. But, itʻs amazing! And, my husband figured out how to hook it up to an external filtered water source so we donʻt ever have to worry about adding water to it. I absolutely love it! Weʻve had one for about 7 years now, hands down my favorite kitchen appliance, lols.
Thanks for taking us along the trip, Lydia! Your are a great embassador: I have just put Cliveden House on my UK-list of interesting places to see. I feel tremendously inspired now to make an autumnal trip this very weekend to one of the great historic houses/sights with gardens near where I live (Berlin/Potsdam) to enjoy the cosy season and colourful foilage. 🍁🍂
Everything was beautiful but with the outfit at 15:23 when you say it’s great for country life what does that mean? I’m just curious because I’ve been to Northamptonshire, and all of the Cotswolds and I didn’t see anyone wearing that? I love all your other classic styles like the scarves and jeans and sweaters with Chanel flats. That to me is what you look the most beautiful in.
We have dear friends who go to Clivedon House for special celebrations. They just love it. I really enjoyed you sharing your experience there. And oh my, the food!!
Ali G’s 😂😂😂😂 very funny Lydia, so glad you shared this, What a place for a Karen Millen shoot 😮🤩 The chicken waffles looked wow Love how you discuss the animals Christmas present list over your meal
Hi Team Lydia. The tan, pointed toe suede boots with the zipper at the back that Lydia wears with a jumper, scarf and jeans look different to the link provided. The ones in the video appear to have a suede covered heel and are pointier. Is the link correct?
The holiday Spring cottage view and the fine dining at the restaurant wine tasting I really loved! Her and Ali need dine at more luxury restaurants around England cuz I’m loving the content! They’re both so sophisticated and posh😌🍷🍷
Thank you for having us along on your trip together! Loved the fun of you explaining the starters. Was excited for you! 🤣 Tell Ali nice shoes, (for 6 hours)!
The British words you guys say a lot, Lovely Bits and pieces. Lol Lovely Ur busy day blog I really enjoyed. And some more words were said Lovely so many of the clothes looked lovely on you. The skits and coats that had a swing, Ur look on your face was so precious. and the swing arms were very nice Your tweed skirt that you asked about tailoring and I say yes!!
Question about fine dinning in the UK… how does tipping works, coming from the US where we always tip, what’s the etiquette o tipping waitress and waiters in the UK?
The service charge (tip) is usually included in the bill already at an establishment for fine dining. Around 12.5% or maybe a little more. Which is fine because you usually receive a dedicated and attentive service which is when us Brit's will tip. Otherwise its up to us and most don't which is never an issue.
Lydia! You should start taking some video of her…knowing we’ll see it…and when she passes someday do a video of just her. How cool would that be! She seems fabulous
Such a beautiful property! I wish they would enclose the TVs in some kind of cabinets or armoir. They seemed out of place amid the other furnishings. What a beautiful location.
I love all the brands you introduced me to as someone who’s in America! We just started to get a temperature drop here and for the first time all of my winter clothing from last year has held up perfectly. Pieces you recommended are truly keeping me warm while still fitting my style.
Another lovely video the cottage looked wonderful thank you for taking us with you both, I'm currently cosy up on the settee with a blanket while the storm/ wind and rain is raging outside hope you are all staying safe with love x

That is so sweet. ❤ Love, from California
What a beautiful place to stay at. I love history in buildings
Hi I had a granny Burke we have been trying to trace her line , funny what we see on comments she was Jenni
Don't know if previous message below will get you uou

I had to watch this one again. It’s so cozy, and you and Ali are too cute! The property was also beautiful, and I can imagine a lovely stay there. Wait, you’re 1 away from a million! Early congratulations! 🎉🥂
I love hearing about your grandmother Lydia. My grandparents are no longer with us and they were such a light in my life that I miss them so much.
❤
Lydia, thank you for sharing your trip to the Cliveden House. What beautiful grounds and cottage you and Ali stayed on. It seemed so nice and relaxing and a perfect place for a get away. And the boots you modeled in the beginning are just beautiful!! 😊❤️
Oh, that black dress and coat!! Gorgeous cottage and a lovely, uplifting video.
What a lovely little getaway you two had you both crack me up together 😂
I just loved all of this… Every bit of it. You could not look better in blazers if you tried, and that Karen Millen dress that you created is sublime! And, if my husband and I ever get back to England, I would love to stay there! Thanks for letting us in on your lives!❤
I loved my ice machine, but man did it pull electricity. It took up half the wattage for my apartment. What a lovely stay-cation!
You are both such an incredibly delightful couple. You so enjoy each others company and it so apparent to all of us. You brighten our days. 🙌🏻💕💕
Your black dinner outfit was just stunning Lydia- the dress, the coat, hair and earrings - all perfection!! ❤
I was lucky enough to grow up there when the Stanford university were using the house (pre hotel days) as my father worked for the NT, both of my parents had passed away when I married so we chose Cliveden as our venue as it felt like home, it’s just so beautiful & has a very interesting & somewhat scandalous history. Really glad you enjoyed your time there
I have so much respect for your grandmother. My grandmother is exactly the same and she is around your grandmothers age. I love the boots and I love the cottage
Love, love, love these outfits. Perfection for me living the country life. You look smashing, as always!
Lydia your fashion sense is impeccable ❤
Love the Christmas feel. So fun
Ali cracked me up with the lists!!!

Why choose any other word it just sums it all up x
Honestly great to see your getaway what a wonderful cottage x
Almost 1 million Lydia!! So happy for you! Also, you look good in everything. Much love from Portugal ♡

What an exquisite experience at Cliveden. The content was so gratifying. What a beautiful place......
Hey Lydia. What colour & design is your beautiful Sabina Savage scarf, please?
Love all the historic places you take us on, thank you. One pet thing I don’t like is in some restaurants how they serve your dinner on a board, apart from that looked beautiful.
My favorite haul ever! I want al, of the outfits all the boots in every heel variation ❤
Nothing beats box leather! STUNNING
Good for your gran! The ones who’ve came through the war are soo strong.

I’m so silly, but I love our portable ice machine…..the sound when it drops the ice is so satisfying….lol.
I agree with ali, i polish my boots all the time , the leather needs it, my black boots are 16 years old and still look fab.
Such an inspirational video. Classy ✨ I appreciate you very much❤

That outfit with the wine boots and with the hair in bun it’s a traffic stopper just beautiful.
You two were very cute with one another, such a genuine connection..
Comfortable fun ....

I work for English Heritage and we also have cottages at many of our properties xx
Always love your estate home stays 🤍 can’t wait to see more over the festive season.
We have dear friends who go to Clivedon House for special celebrations. They just love it. I really enjoyed you sharing your experience there. And oh my, the food!!

Lydia such a beautiful video. Please do more of these videos. By the way you both look good in your outfits. Ciao MaryAnn
Lydia and Ali an Amazing Team!♥️
We’ve stayed in quite a few National Trust cottages - absolutely fabulous ❤
Cliveden is amazing! That huge round table in the dining room is seared in my mind as one of my greatest party memories. 🎉
When will the Karen Millen dress be available please Lydia? It's perfection
Lydia I ❤❤❤the last morning look with the plaid jacket,,,that's my favorite so far ❤ to you and Ali G ..😂😂😂
Hi Team Lydia. The tan, pointed toe suede boots with the zipper at the back that Lydia wears with a jumper, scarf and jeans look different to the link provided. The ones in the video appear to have a suede covered heel and are pointier. Is the link correct?
could you please inform which sabina savage scarf exactly you are wearing? I love it
What was the Oregon wine you had at dinner? Sincerely, a curious Oregonian who loves wine.
I love your vlogs soooooo much 💖
The holiday Spring cottage view and the fine dining at the restaurant wine tasting I really loved! Her and Ali need dine at more luxury restaurants around England cuz I’m loving the content! They’re both so sophisticated and posh😌🍷🍷
Wonder vlog,all looked so cosy,loved all your outfits🤎🍁
That was lovely. I love when you and Ali go out and show us the UK and beyond.
The outfits are nice if you live in the country side like you do but would silly in the towns we have the shop near me ❤
Thank you for having us along on your trip together! Loved the fun of you explaining the starters. Was excited for you! 🤣 Tell Ali nice shoes, (for 6 hours)!
Just a fabulous vlog. Loved every minute of it.
The British words you guys say a lot,
Lovely Bits and pieces. Lol
Lovely
Ur busy day blog I really enjoyed. And some more words were said
Lovely so many of the clothes looked lovely on you. The skits and coats that had a swing,
Ur look on your face was so precious.
and the swing arms were very nice
Your tweed skirt that you asked about tailoring and I say yes!!

Wholesome video. Thank you!

Lydia! You should start taking some video of her…knowing we’ll see it…and when she passes someday do a video of just her. How cool would that be! She seems fabulous
Thankyou! I feel like I just went on holiday! So lovely!
Stunning cottage - love a ground floor bedroom - and there’s a ‘Profumo’ chair 😜
I remember the Porfumo cocktail at Clivden, and they had the most amazing truffle risotto 🤤🤤🤤
Such a beautiful property! I wish they would enclose the TVs in some kind of cabinets or armoir. They seemed out of place amid the other furnishings. What a beautiful location.
Hahahaha! 😂😂😂 Aller-geeees! Ali, that is gold!! 😂😂😂
Is your black dress available yet? ❤ I can’t find it? 😢
"What do you get the cat that has everything?" "An Umbrella" bahahahaha Ali cracks me up!
Stayed here many times in cottage it’s stunning
Do the Fairfax and Favor boots have a rubber sole??
I love all the brands you introduced me to as someone who’s in America! We just started to get a temperature drop here and for the first time all of my winter clothing from last year has held up perfectly. Pieces you recommended are truly keeping me warm while still fitting my style.
It all looked so BEAUTIFUL ❤❤❤
I am an OG Fairfax and Favour fan. I go back to the white boxes, if you know you know. I bought mine from a really tiny stand at a horse show.
Love the boots! What is your height? I worry I’m too short for the top of the boots to fit properly. Thank you!
1:09 omg!!! LMAO!!! That is hilarious!!! I love you guys!
I loved the gluttony in this 😉 and the boots are super !
Really enjoyed the Video with you both. Herlerius. 😘
Another lovely video the cottage looked wonderful thank you for taking us with you both, I'm currently cosy up on the settee with a blanket while the storm/ wind and rain is raging outside hope you are all staying safe with love x
Goodness your hair is sensational - can we get a tutorial? 🙏🏻
I love Fairfax and Fairfax, I just wish they did wide fit! Xx
