    Christina, your shoulders are beautiful. Anyone who thinks rounded, well-developed delts should be hidden, well, you don't need to worry about their opinion.

      @virginiamarian6740 7 дней назад +4

      I dont think it is about the shoulders, it'sabout the total look. She can wear what she wants but in general, the horizontal/tube/square neckline suits her better

  • @lelexoxo303
    @lelexoxo303 8 дней назад +206

    Whoever commented that racerback tops don't suit you was lying. Your shoulders (and also your arms) look amazing, I can tell you work out, you just look super fit.

    • @theforbiddenpoet
      @theforbiddenpoet 8 дней назад +4

      This! Also, many shoulders are round. I feel like in this instance "round shoulders" is code for "not feminine" or something equally ridiculous...as if that's a bad thing.

    I am loving the look of crisp shirts on women - so I wear them, too. In pure linen, which is the only fabric bearable in the heat of Sicily where I live. Luckily I like ironing! Most of the time, I am on a pedal bike, so I add shorts - also preferably in linen. Recently I got a super pair of longer pleated shorts in chocolate brown. Not quite bermudas, but a good length for a 70-year-old. I tuck in the shirt or tie it in a knot; then add a belt to dress it up. However, I went for a walk yesterday evening. Put on a cropped striped racer back ribbed top, with white linen wide leg jeans. A guy gave me an appreciative look, nearly falling off his bike 😅

    • @teresacarle294
      @teresacarle294 8 дней назад +2

      😉Wow! 🚲That's quite a compliment💥! Brava! You must be doing something right. Confidence & being comfortable in your own skin & personal style is very ⚡️sexy⚡️& appealing.
      I'm 💯% w/you on razorback tanks〰️esp. paired w/a slightly more voluminous bottom. I'm strictly 🚫cleavage, so I like showing a bit of shoulder & arms instead. Plus, in my hot climate🥵 wearing sleeves can almost be as repugnant as full length pants😂.
      Soft, drapey fabrication is everything for me year round in sunny 😎SoCal. Battle w/highly structured garments. Tailoring can add to my misery in our extreme climate. 🎉Breathable cottons, moisture wicking sporty/tech fabrics, linen blends, gauzy fabrics, & lots of rayon🎉.
      Enjoy wearing lightweight denim dresses & chambray shirts, but jeans👖 are not a part of my wardrobe. Once the mercury rises🌡, I can barely tolerate my denim vest🤣.
      😊It's mostly skirts/skorts for me from late Spring thru early Fall. Dresses follow next. Followed by some cropped pants〰️shorts for @home🏡 & hiking⛰️. Hem lengths from the bottom of my calf to ankle preferred for going out & about. Straight cut or slightly wide full length trousers can sometimes work.
      ❤Love a classic button up, but they don't always love my extreme proportions⏳️. Do like knotting open a slouchy button up &/or using a slightly more tailored one as a lightweight shacket over a body-con tank. Long slouchy sleeves suit me best in the heat. Prefer sleeves rolled or cuffed up the arm for comfort. Plus, they offer some sun☀️ protection.
      Enjoy these last days of Spring!
      💚Bridget from Cali☘️

    Christina, I love the way your muscular upper body looks in your high neck tanks…show it off, you have worked hard for those beautiful muscles. I wear high neck ribbed tanks all the time…I have straight, angular shoulders and my friends say I look better in spaghetti strap scoop necks, but don’t care, wear what you like, confidence is everything! Your hair is stunning!!!

    4) love those black kitten heel sandals

  • @kari0675
    @kari0675 8 дней назад +5

    My favourite fabric for summer is viscose - it's breatheable, but also feels cool on the skin and it flows when I walk, creating a draft of air on the skin, which is very useful in the heat.

  • @jessicaschlott3879
    @jessicaschlott3879 8 дней назад +6

    Once I started getting more muscle definition in my arms, I found myself loving high neck tanks. Its nice to see your hard work from the gym start to show. They look great on you.
    Also as much as I want to be a tshirt girly I gravitate towards sleeveless tops. Its easier to layer and not overheat in the summer. Plus t-shirts never lay flat when I layer.

    • @Hello-Stoiko
      @Hello-Stoiko 8 дней назад +1

      I’m starting to work on my arms at a ripe age of 51, and I really need to wear sleeveless where I am as it’s 100 degrees so even if they are not toned I don’t care. But I am trying!

I’d like to find a pair of white denim and a lighter, looser pair of denim to replace my dark wash. I’ll be hitting up the thrift store soon. Seeing you wear neutrals during the summer with lots of black helps me because I too wear mostly navy and black. 😊

      Hi try your white jeans with your black or blue buttondown tied at the waist with or without a tank underneath. It might be more wearable than all white. Also you have a great physique but you swamp it with loose/baggy clothes try tight on top with loose on bottom or vice versa. Just suggestions to try but always you do you 😂

    You totally got me into the high neck racerbacks BECAUSE you look so great in them. Prior to that, I was all about the square or v-neck. I like that it gives the opportunity to show skin while having some protection. Definitely have already reached for them on days when I don't want sun

    White denim jeans and white denim shorts are a summer essential for me. I got my first pair of white denim jeans at 13 and have had many pairs over the years (I'm now in my 50's). I wear white jeans every year whether they are in or not. I just love, love white denim jeans and white denim shorts and they are always in my summer wardrobe. White cotton t-shirts, white cotton tops and white linen tops are also summer essentials for me. I guess I just love wearing white in the summer.
    I heard you mention in a recent video that you were going to wear more silver jewelery as it is a better color on you. I would agree with that. Those silver earrings look awesome on you. They brighten up your face a lot. I am a cool tone and I wear almost exclusively silver/white gold as it looks better on me too.

I dont like summer neither,i just hate it😂 my uniform is a tank/tshirt, a linen or cotton button down and jeans or linen-cotton-mix pants. Now i incorporated a few midi dresses,a tank dress and shirt dresses so i can vary a bit, and the shirt dresses can be worn as a duster,completely open too,love the variety😊 i now noticed the cos dress is the one i have too🤗

    Love this summer capsule! I live in a very hot climate and I’m going to copy this capsule. I always hate summer because I find it hard to come up with ideas for outfits but these are awesome and interesting!

    You look great in the tank tops! I'm jealous.

    I find loose fitting dresses in woven linen or cotton are the coolest option for summer, better than skirts because they do not necessarily hug the waist as much. And I also use a shirt as a layer to protect from the sun. For the same purpose, I wish someone made unlined jackets in linen or cotton, especially cropped - has anyone seen anything like that?

      I agree.❤ Another fabric I like in the summer is a rayon spandex Jersey knit. Cotton poplin is my favorite but it's not as easy to find as I would like. I went to a massive thrift store and looked at all of the button up long sleeve tops And found a white cropped one that is working well for me with my summer dresses. I have a longer one that I tie at the waist to make it cropped. I also found one in a light blue Chambray cotton poplan last year but I had to look at hundreds of tops. It was worth the search though because I don't wear denim jackets in the heat of the summer, only in spring and fall. A few years ago I had a black linen one that I loved but I've lost weight and it's too big I can't make it work anymore.

    The racerback looks nice on you, tbh. I'd keep it.

    Your summer ‘fits are looking good!👍Last year I scored some good linen pieces at thrift and augmented with B&M shopping. They worked a treat for a winter vacation in Florida, and are now into their second summer. First time I’ve had summer clothes last/look good for more than one summer! Linen is one fabric that gets better as it gets older, IMO.❤
    Hard to find these days, but tropical weight wool is pretty fantastic. I’ve got one great navy double breasted blazer (thrifted) 100% wool, but can definitely be worn in summer !😅

    Loving those cropped wide legged/loose light wash jeans on you! Eileen Fisher has a great unlined cotton poplin blazer out that is great for summer. Also, just visited Toronto, and really enjoyed vintage shopping in Kensington Market! And the food was amazing!

    By the way, your hair looks really pretty. You look fabulous in all of your wardrobe pieces. I particularly think you look beautiful in the spaghetti strap dress (and it has pockets - a win in my eyes) and the navy poplin skirt. Living in Phoenix, Arizona, linen and cotton are essential. I am also embracing wearing shorts more even though I have imperfections in my legs (I am 67). I just want to be comfortable and at the same time chic. My style for shorts is mostly the Bermuda style. Thanks for your style inspiration.

    Hi really great content !!! So happy to came across you on YT. I really like your ribbed cotton dress (I have a similar one in my closet) as well as your button downs shirts and all pants :) When it comes to my essentail pieces I pretty much agree with your ideas I would add some linen ensemble containg shorts and maybe a maxi dress. Your dainty sandals and flip flops are like mine. Best regards

    Wow! Longtime follower, very rare commenter, if ever. (1) Your HAIR looks SO good! Healthier, thicker, and the length/style look ideal on you. I love your waves too, so it’s not just because it’s straight. (2) Your POSTURE looks great too! I really applaud you. Whatever you’re doing is working. I am in love with these dresses on you, that bustier with the cuffed wider legged jeans and stewpot kitten heels… SO fire! I love the tank dress on you, the long silk skirt, and even the long A line skirt! Something about the combos are working better than usual. You are hitting your stride! Love the linen dress with the belt(!) and the slit. Love the poplin dress on you too. I can see all of that stuff with a Jean jacket, leather jacket, (maybe those will help transition to Fall), or a big floppy hat for now (or on Vacation!)

    I love the look of the Flattered Alva shoulder bag on you! I've had this bag on my Wishlist for a long time. I'd love to see a review or a bit more detail about this bag. In particular, I'm wondering if a thin 15 inch laptop would fit inside in a pinch? It would obviously take away from the slouchy look but still curious if it would fit.
