After seeing so many cute street outfits of influencers & celebrities like Kendall Jenner Hailey berber Rihanna Zendaya...where they look like they effortlessly put and outfit together BUT SO CHIC. HOW DO THEY DO IT?! At the same time I've been seeing so many tiktoks of people getting their color analysis. Which helps them figure out the color palette that looks best on them. Am I a whiner, a summer, a fall? I put on my investigator hat this week to see what its like to hire a celebrity stylist & get my color analysis done...while we're at it may as well compare a real human to an algorithms calculation. Enjoy episode #5

Nice!
Love a crossover moment between two of my favourites!
I really liked that you ended this by mentioning the financial aspect! Very relatable and true that it's often not wise to just go and buy a bunch of fast fashion clothes when we want to revamp our wardrobe!
So happy you agreed! I was worried you’d all be upset I didn’t buy it all, so glad the message was more important to
You all 🩵 I have the smartest subscribers ☺️
I liked the idea of looking up outfits with what we have in our closet! We can shop our closet and not needing to buy something new.
Also it's so true that most people can't just go and buy multiple 'investment' pieces. These things take time!! But plans help!
Also love this. Completely relatable and real (and I like the chat about over consumption/ads) ❤
Hey Keltie, I just really wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you as an influencer talking openly about the pressure to constantly buy stuff online and about how hard it can be to remind yourself that this actually isn’t necessary and such a harmful behaviour (to both people and the planet). Personally I find that “creating a capsule wardrobe” can become such an easy excuse because, as you say, products being marketed in that way make us feel like we just “need” this one final piece etc. So thank you so much!
So happy you appreciate it 🥹🩵 thank you! I agree I’ve so many times said “this is for my capsule wardrobe” no keltie a sequence sparkly pink dress you saw on TikTok is NOT it hahahah
"flamboyant" and "dramatic" style types are likely referring to the kibbe body types. not necessarily saying you have a flamboyant style :)
Exactly! Thanks for bringing this up!
I came here to say this! Kibbie is also so much better than the traditional system
Yes I would be curious to see her try a Gamine look
My thoughts as well. I bet she’s either a Dramatic or Flamboyant Natural in Kibbe.
So glad you didn’t scrap this! But also I think it’s one of those “you never know what someone’s going through” moments because I watch your videos and think “wow, she rocks the athleisure chic look.” You always have the cutest sets. Healthy skin and hair is honestly its own accessory and paired with your jewelry choices elevate each look beyond just a gym fit. Your pieces are quality. To me, it always appears effortless, fit, cool. I think there is a spectrum to styling leggings and a sweatshirt, and you are far from the pilled legging/15 year old oversized faded tee/did I brush my hair before bun today/shoes are a different color from dirt end of things (calling myself out)
Emerald green looks amazing on you! I also have greenish blue eyes with a little bit of yellow around the iris and I find that olive makes me eyes pop. I think you’re onto something
So happy you agree! I’d be crushed if people said greens and blues look awful on me! Our eyes sound so similar 🫶
@@KeltieOConnor I do think you rocked that emerald green, but given your colouring I think something a touch lighter - e.g. a dark kelly green - might be even better!
But colour analysis should definitely be used as inspiration/guidance, not the law! I'm a Winter and I sometimes deliberately wear Spring colours in spring, Summer colours in summer etc - once you know the "rules", part of the fun is in breaking them!!
This series is the best. I love the honesty. Been watching you for years I love this evolution.
Thank you so much!!! I’m loving making this series and means even more to me you all like it too!
The personal finance subreddit was an absolute life saver for me. Has really great guides that explain things like loan repayment, health insurance, mortgages, etc. You absolutely can get your finances together this year. I believe in you!
Ahhh I LOVE the twist ending of this video! I'm so glad you didn't cave to the pressure to just buy more stuff. I feel like color analysis is yet another way to encourage us to overconsume and love the idea of just doing what you can with what you have for the most part.
It is so interesting when we learn about color theory and body shape from an educational standpoint vs how the media portrays women. I am absolutely obsessed with the spring colors on you!
Black pants and a sweater, leggings and a hoodie… why is this so relatable. I always think that I will dress up super cute but then end up wearing the same comfy outfits over and over again 🤣
Thank god I’m not the only one. A black hoodie & leggings feels like home hahah 🖤
If you want to try purple try like a sunny lilac! Yellow is hard as a blonde I agree. Also I'm also a blue/green spring girlie, but yeah sometimes the deeper blue and greens that match my eyes really well wash my skin out and the colour wears me. That being said, it's not practical to wear only pastels as a near 30yo woman 😅
So excited to watch you go on this financial journey and be so vulnerable! Money is something I’ve had so much anxiety about and getting my finances in order has been a rollercoaster. I’m glad to see more and more women talking about it and sharing their stories ❤
I’m pretty surprised that you spent 2k on that stylist - I think you’re right on the money when it comes to your body shape and the colors that do/don’t work. Yellow definitely makes you sallow! I don’t see you looking good in outfits for hourglass! She also gave you a ton of black outfit recs, which isn’t bright spring. We often don’t know what looks best on us, but we usually know what looks the worst. Trust your gut lol
Also - good for you for bringing personal finance into this. The progression of ‘finding your personal style’ to ‘oh shit I need to save money instead’ is very relatable and something a lot of us come to. Thank you! It was a refreshing end to the video.
Oh, also - do you use any self-tanner? Because that will throw off how colors look on you by a LOT
OMG Sarah has the MOST relaxing, amazing vibe. I could listen to her talk about style for hours and hours.
Love and support new Keltie approach of calm assertiveness. Also yes emerald green does look brilliant on you. I had colour done ‘back in the day’ and have cycled through some colours over the years. Taste changes and maybe one day you will try on a purple top and all of a sudden!! 😊
I appreciate you being honest about the finances, and stopping yourself from buying a bunch of clothes. I am saving this year for my emergency fund, something I never had. It is hard to resist the temptations, but I know I will feel better after.
Always appreciate your honesty in your videos!! Also, I don't know if I'm the only one who noticed this but you kept saying you don't look good in yellow or purple, but every time you cut to you in front of that heavily yellow and purple artwork on the wall I thought you looked amazing!! It's all about the shades, I think those might be your shades haha.
Wow this topic turned and I’m
So glad I watched the whole thing!! I’m in the same situation and feelings about debt and came to the decision to take care of financial health a few weeks ago coz it was impacting my physical and mental health. Looking forward to going through this journey with you 😊
Love that we can be on this financial health journey together!!
Sameeeee!
I blended my AG1 with coconut milk, banana, frozen blueberries and blackcurrants last week and it was delicious! (Just in case anyone wants more AG1 recipe inspo! 😉)
We love recipe ideas!! Thank you 🩵🫐
I can’t stand it by itself so I stopped ordering 😢 I hope they come out with different flavors!
I loved how you turned that video around - its so much more authentic now! Love that so much! ❤ lots of Love from Germany Keltie!
Actually, I do think you'd look phenomenal in a hot pink blazer, or in chartreuse, in a bright yellow, and I do think that the deep emerald green sweater you wore drowned you out a bit, but a brighter, more vibrant green would work on you.
Thank you for being vulnerable at the end of the video. Love the honesty.
Really enjoyed the financial talk as I’m currently looking into styling things I already have, for environmental reasons as much as money. Looking forward to seeing more of this money smart content from you, always love your videos, Keltie!
You talking about the financial aspects of this is the most real I’ve ever seen an influencer be. I instantly subscribed. Thank you for the authenticity.
Awesome video! I went down the youtube rabbit hole of color analysis, and one thing that i found out that surprised me and made me think...a favorite color of mine that make my eyes pop isn't my color. It makes my eyes look blue greener BUT it doesn't make my skin look luminous, so thats where color specialists look for.
Congratulations on your graduation!! I LOVE your playlists and am soooooo excited for more!! ❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you so much Erin!!!🩵🩵
Damn, now that's a video!
Not a stylist but an artist here, but I think your feeling about the mauve/yellow tones might have a solid reason - they're probably going to bring out the yellow tones in your hair. So if you're into keeping that cool toned it's going to be counterproductive.
Now I'm off to shop my wardrobe and see what around my house I can repurpose as a bag (anything you can carry counts as a bag 😂) - looking forward to following along with your journey
your hair is shining and you are glowing! 😍
Thank you so much 🩵🩵🩵
Love this video so much! Means the world to have you be so honest and relatable and tear down the expectations of consumerism making us happier people. It’s so comforting to have someone you look up to remind you that the happiness is within yourself and not the items or having a good look. Thanks Keltie!
Omg yes! As a freelance artist dealing with the recession, a video on finances is so perfect! Thank you for being so authentic & real 😊🥰
Great & interesting video! I truly appreciate how your individuality and honesty is shining more and more on your channel!
Thank you Erika!!! 2024 has felt like a breathe of fresh air for creating content and I’m so happy you all feel it to!!
I’ve been wanting to do one but they’re so expensive!!! I’m doing it ‘accidentally’ by taking photos of any clothing article I try on and sending to friends to ask for their opinions. Apparently any beige washes me out horribly and cool toned pastels look pretty nice on me. I thought it was so crazy because I always thought I was warm and yellow (I’m SE Asian) and cool tones?! Wild.
The seeing something online you didn’t even think of needing and then spending the whole day wondering whether to buy it is so real 😭 thanks for being real with us ❤
I love you opening up about finances. SO many people are in similar boats for similar or different reasons and I'm sure it's a relief to know they aren't alone. After Matt Mort's latest video, it's so interesting to see, everyone struggles.
I can't wait to see you on working out your finances . We see you progressing in your fitness but never it finance.
By the way I listen to your play lists on Spotify for runs . I actually have gotten to the point where I can run a mile without stopping. Sometimes I play your get motivated play list at work in the kitchen.
Oh my gosh, Keltie! That 'unique orange' looks so good on you!!!
And again loving this video! I do not have any advice on paying off debt specifically but having a budget / knowing where all your money goes is always helpful! I have an excel sheet with all my income and expenses. Always budget in some "guilt free" spending money so it doesn't feel too strict. Love this series though ❤
In all my (manyyyy) Pinterest years, I have literally NEVER thought to put in an item I already own for style tips. Never. Game changer. THANK YOU!!!
Are you still using self tanner? That might be impacting what you think looks "good" vs not good. The sky blue and yellow looked really good, I think a lavender color would too! Shopping secondhand is also great for the budget and the Earth. I get most of my wardrobe on Poshmark or the thrift store.
Love a thrifting moment! I’m having mixed emotions about self tan, I still love the tan but can’t be bothered to put it on most days lately. Focusing on doing good for my body skin care has helped a ton me not wanting to use it as much!
Welcome March! Happy Women’s History Month, Keltie!❤❤
Thank you Ervin!! Happy March ☺️
You too, Keltie!
I love how you ended the video. You are so right, and I think this is the right attitude. Now, I have been looking at befores and afters of stylists that were intended to prove that one color looked better than the other on their clients. And yeah - kinda…but mostly the difference is really minimal. Not worth the hassle in my opinion. That red, light blue and yellow (yes, yellow! It looks great on you) you tried on looked amazing on you, but so did the emerald green. Personally, I’ll just wear the stuff I like, regardless of color, because the difference is not that big.
You're doing exactly what you're meant to do. I content and presentation is really appreciated and enjoyed :)
Honestly, in the middle of the video when you mentioned that you were going to buy the items the stylists recomended, I was a bit turned off. I love how you decided to end it! Personally I believe that learning to style the clothes you already have is a much better way to spend your time. I need to do that too! I feel like when I get new pieces I still might only know how to style them with one outfit anyways. Great video!
Hourglass? Interesting. I agree with you 😂 nothing against you personally 😂
I had my colors done years back. I'm a warm vibrant autumn, and over the years, I've realized they were right. I love wearing black, but I look so much better in brown. I'm also an inverted triangle.
I feel like you're just so relatable? Okay, maybe I don't truly relate because I'm a mom so we're at different points in our lives, but the fact that you open this with "im so sick of looking like a slob" made me feel SEEN. I love your content lately!!! you're killing it!!
Keltie, I LOVE how you ended this video!!! It was fun seeing you get styled and learn some things about yourself (girlllll you're totally an hourglass, just a slender one), but I didn't feel like I could connect with it until you started talking about the reality that for most of us, buying a whole new wardrobe is simply not a reasonable or even possible thing to do. That being said, it would be super fun to see "shop your closet" videos, even just as shorts or something where we can see you putting your new knowledge into practice!
I love this, especially the financial aspect! I love following along on people's financial journies 😅
A budgeting idea I thought of while watching this is to save up double of what something costs so you use 1 half to buy the item you want, and the other half goes toward debt. Saving twice the amount you need takes longer so it'll help you decide if you really want/need that item, and you're paying off debt as well!
Great video Keltie! I did a color palette test and found it semi-helpful, but really I already knew the colors that look good on me, just needed my eye.
Also, glad you didn’t feel the need to go out and buy all that stuff. I read recently that 100 billion new clothing items are produced a year 😅 This year I’m trying to buy way less and only shop 2nd hand
Thank you Gabi!! I’m so happy you all aren’t upset I didn’t buy all the stuff, I was going to buy the guilt was to much. Here’s to second hand in 2024!!
A follow up video of trying to buy similar pieces to the ones you were recommended second hand & featuring shops/owners, asking for their help & insight, would be rad! Especially searching in BC, when you’re back in AB, in Sweden, traveling in LA and NYC. . . . Or a full year challenge of only buying secondhand items!
It’s so refreshing to hear your candid response to the financial aspect and addressing overconsumption!
I’m a huge color analysis and Kibbe fan! Style DNA was super wrong for me - it said Cool Winter, when I was professionally analyzed as a Soft Autumn. I have a color like your emerald green - I love a bright spring hot pink! I think people notice when you feel amazing and happy in a color, even if it’s not in your palette. Loved this video btw!
I love that you are talking about financial health as well! I feel like the topic of debt is so taboo, and on the other hand you have all the “finance bros” who are like “You don’t deserve to go out to eat until you’re debt free! You should focus on paying your debts before you worry about spending on extras!” So your outlook is so refreshing. I recently decided, as well, to start seriously tackling my debt but also still enjoying my life to a healthy degree so I’m excited to go on this journey together
I am so confused as to why that stylist said you were an hourglass… 🤯
You have a beautiful athletic body type. Very Cameron Diaz 🔥
Heck yeah Keltie! Getting finances together is SO freeing!!I KNOW you can do it 💕
I'd love watching you put together outfits with the closet you already have! I always find that those videos spark creativity for me with my own wardrobe.
Keltie! I needed this video this week, so thank you! I've got some events coming up with some beautiful amazing people who exacerbate my own insecurities. I have been looking for the PERFECT outfit for the event, but you really made me reflect. The problem is my self esteem, not my wardrobe!! I need to work through which of my clothes make me feel great and not think that new purchases will solve my problems. As always, your videos interest me, amuse me, make me think, and make me remember that I do actually really like myself!
I love that you included a clip from the Waveform podcast. The guys are great to listen to. And that you included the music clip from when they introduce their Trivia Quiz section of the podcast. Subtle easter egg.
Thank you for also talking about the financial aspect. I've been debating getting a bit of help from an online stylist (in another country from where I live) to assess colours and body shape. And debating about whether it's worth it. And then i think "ugh it's better to do the analysis before spending more on clothes and make-up"... So I'm stuck in that mental debate loop.
I REALLY loved this video Keltie! As a fashion designer (and “compulsive” shopper) I decided to do a no-buy year last year (which I documented on my channel). This year is focused on a low buy year and trying to reach some financial goals, as well as unpacking more of my own challenges with reigning in my spending. We are bombarded with marketing which makes it difficult to ignore especially when we’re feeling stressed out (that’s my state 95% of the time 😂). So I’m proud of you for choosing to focus on your finances and not be sucked into the black hole of consumerism.
Also congratulations on your graduation!! ❤❤❤
I'm 58 and not retiring any time soon as I was never strict with the finances. Getting an adviser now and getting your finances in order is a great idea.
The way I do it is have basics but slowly over time accumulate a fun piece here and there. I rotate things. I look at my closet as a collection and not a season, and not a year.
Also Keltie, get that money!! Do an ad when you need to, it’s not like you don’t give amazing content already!
I literally went through a similar process lately…we even share the same body types and my color is a light summer which shares some colors with the light spring palette (slightly more faded and cool leaning than you). Thanks for keeping it real and actually helpful for people who look for fun but realistic guidance and connection on this platform :)
You are so honest and one of the things we love most about you! Thank you for showing us you because so many people deal with the same SHIT but everyone hides it because it’s insta.
Between your Breaking 12 Dirty Habits video. and the financial health content in this one, I am so happy I found your channel! I had already booked a colour analysis and now I'm totally going to use Pinterest to work on incorporating existing pieces! Thanks for the real talk.
Keltie you can give your stylist a price guide for the clothes you can afford - there's options in every price point! I love Ellbat, everyone should go check her out!!
I love the conclusion of this video 😊 I think it was amazing that you stay faithful to your convictions and yourself and I really like that you are open not to follow the social pressure and to show that is okey to not be a part of capitalism once in a while ! Love your videos thanks for being you ! 😊🌞
I would love to see you do a video about a “no spend” month where you only buy the absolute necessities like food, transportation, etc. but no new clothes, home items, impulse buys, eating out, etc. My husband and I did “No Spend January” and it’s amazing what you don’t actually need when you have made a commitment to yourself not to spend unnecessarily (and making a video helps!) We are up to our eyeballs in debt so I absolutely felt you at the end of this video. I’m looking forward to see how things progress for you and wishing you the best!
ive always thought "fitness influencers" were lame as hell and influencers in general but Keltie you have such a glowing soul! I love watching your content ! thank you dude you rule
Yes! Love a woman taking control of her financial life! I was honestly surprised when you said you were buying all the outfits and I’m so happy with how you ended this video. So much more relatable. ❤
Keltie please guide us while learning in your financial planning goals. I think this was the most relatable video I watched lately and it will be super helpful
The best part of this video is your commitment at the end to sort out your financial life! This is what people really need to see not more cute outfits to buy. Thank you.
The first clue that the human stylist was not worth the money was...look at HER style. Awful, just awful. Secondly, no matter how you slice it, you, Keltie, are not an hourglass.
Exactly… To be an hourglass your shoulders and hips have to be aligned.
Was not expecting the ending but I loved it! So many ppl don’t know how to deal with their finances and this will help more than just you. 😊 Can’t wait to see future videos on this!!
Loved this video, especially the plot twist 😂 One surprising thing that will happen once you pay off all your debts is, the effect bing debt-free will have on your decision making. Also it surprised me how I shifted my perspective and goals more to experiences instead of things.
the second half of the video is just chef's kiss 😙👌 very relatable and true content! well done on that! it's good to know about color analysis etc but if one doesn't have the budget, one shouldn't feel obliged to spend tons of money on new clothes to fit in just because the internet (or the world it seems like) pushes them to do so...
I did color analysis a few years ago (deep autumn!). I had always thought I looked terrible in blue, but it turns out that shade really really REALLY matters. Most blues aren’t great on me, but there are a couple that are amazing. Probably the same for your purple and yellow.
I love this and I love us women starting to talk about financial wellbeing on the interwebs more! Looking forward to this thank you Kellie!
Thank you Meg!! I agree I’m loving it’s becoming more popular!
Wow! Looking forward to watching this! I really like colour analysis and have through my own research found other options that what I originally thought were my best colours. I misdiagnosed myself for years as an Autumn but now I know that I am a soft summer and I really love how those colurs and nuances make me look. One effect is that it makes my fair skin look fresher and less sickly… 😂
Lol, Keltie, I AM an accountant 😆 But it is so totally awesome to see an influencer discussing this side of things! Keep it up. It is really hard, but eventually things snowball in a positive way financially
You have prominent Limbal rings around your irises. I’ve found that people who have those might indeed be classified as a lighter or less contrasted season but if they don’t stray too far from the undertones that suit them best they can get away with more contrast and hence they often look good in black, navy, and dark greens, chocolate browns, etc. I LOVE the note this video ended on. YAAASSSSS !!! There is no reason exploring your style more has to cost you a lot of money or happen instantly. It can and really should evolve over time because life is still moving along and you will continue to grow and change and want different things from your clothing. And it’s the truest thing ever to realize that you do not know to want what you do not see. My father has become my style icon as I have gotten older. He refused to buy poor quality, he knew what suited him and stuck with it, and he hung onto pieces for DECADES. I have one of his shirts hanging in my closet that he had my entire life. That shirt is iconic now. That is what I want my style to be: iconic. And that takes time. You have to earn that kind of style the same way you earn your wrinkles and grey hair and wisdom and confidence: the passage of time. I want things that last and work hard for me, not the other way around. Congratulations on your upcoming graduation 😊❤
Can you do a video that goes something like this ”trying expensive/viral clothes so you don’t have to”
ALSO SIDE NOTE: I love your videos, keep the shit up girl. You deserve all the best 🫶🏻🥹
Oooo love video ideas like that thank you!!!!🩵🩵 thank you for the love as well 🫶
Ohhhhh girl, ive been waiting for this one since you mentioned finances in a past video. I cant wait to see you tackle this challenge. You're a dedicated girlie and I know you'll be able to knock it out of the park.
Some recommendations from a girl whos paid off $34k in student debt and $17k in credit card debt. Be patient and be kind to yourself but also recognize you may have to parent yourself in a way you were never parented before, especially if you're like me and grew up with Nooo financial literacy.
Recommndations;
Caleb Hammer - youtube (cuts the crap and makes you look at things realistically)
Erin Lowry - Broke Millenial (takes a look at the psychology of money and different ways to have convos surrounding money and how to pay off debt.)
Gabrielle Talks Money - RUclips (Canadian financial girlie who breaks things down in easy to understand videos)
You got this, sorry for the essay, ever since i started my journey (now debt free and starting to save for retirement and invest at 30) i am very passioned by it.
For anyone who's going to try out AI color analysis: make your selfie without makeup on!
The video was nice! I didn't particularly understand why the stylist's services cost so much. A lot of the information from the presentation is based on templates.
A note to everyone about colors - all colors can suit someone. It is about the shade and intensity! All colors come in warm and cold shade and different intensity, that is what makes the difference. If you have a warm undertone, a sun yellow will suit you, if cold - a greenish yellow, neon direction is the way to go. It takes time and practice to learn to determine if the shade is warm or cold. And it can be very challenging to determine it in artificial lighting. The intensity relates to how much contract you have in between different elements of your face - skin, eyes, hair, lips. The higher the contract, the more intense colors one can wear. By the way, such tests should also be made without make up on for more accurate results. Awesome video!
Eyyy!! Paying down/off debt is mine and my husband’s goal this year too!! We’ve already taken care of medical bills and gotten our credit card down from 3000 to 700. Plus monthly student loan and car payments. We are trying to attack smallest balances first and go from there.
You got this!!
Flamboyant and Dramatic are different in this context!
If you look up Kibbe style typing those words refer to clean lines and being tailored (which is actually your style). The opposite would be soft or natural meaning round, feminine, flowy.
really loved the turn the video took at the end :) thank you for being authentic and upright
I was just about to buy the next sweater I don't need... Thank's for making me reflect on my finances and wardrobe :D
one paradigm shift that broke me free from consumerism is that i do not need to look good. if i like pretty things, i can appreciate them like appreciate a painting, but i do not need to be that painting if that makes sense. i just need to dress clean and appropriate. It took me about two years between realizing this and actually spending much less on stuff like fashion, makeup and lifestyle items that are not essential to my life and career. This does not apply to everyone of course, maybe especially not influencers.
I love how real this is. Thanks Keltie for the reminder!
Thank you Keltie for doing everything I’ve ever considered doing without spending a dime myself❤😂 ps I love the relatability on finding balance with finances. You very rarely find down to earth information from someone who doesn’t specialise in that content. And I definitely need to improve
I was so surprised to see the color analysis being done with heavy makeup on! According to everything I’ve read and watched, proper color analysis is based on your true skin tone.
Tbh I love when your original video idea “fails.” It always leads to something I need to hear
I think this is so beautiful, that you’ve mentioned finances here instead of just showcasing: go get yourself a 2k$ stylist and spend 5k$ on clothing.
Working in marketing, I always have to remind myself that at the end of the day it’s the viewer’s responsibility to make a purchasing decision. And we all need to be very cautious of why we are buying certain stuff.
Love your videos!
Interesting that she suggested black as that's a winter color. But you're right what you like is most important, don't like yellow def skip that.
I really am loving this series, Keltie & for the past few years have been slowly going on my own journey. I got my color analysis done this past summer, but have yet to book a stylist. Am thinking about it though! What I've found to be a good start, at least for me, is watching a lot of RUclips on sustainable fashion, & personal style & finances. I really like Christina Mychas & the Financial diet for those & bonus points, Christina is also Canadian & got herself out of a lot of debt, so you may find her helpful. Looking forward to continuing this journey with you!
Keltie, you're super relatable and I think it's great that you're being open about your financial situation. It will help a lot of your viewers. I'm really into personal finance, and while I'm sure you're already looking into how to manage finances from way better and actually qualified sources, I would love to share my few cents. A lot of personal finance advice boils down to: 1. establish savings equal to 3 months of expenses. 2. focus on eliminating debt. 3. identify a new financial goal and set up a savings plan for it (house, retirement, fancy gadget, kids, whatever).
But those are long-term steps. Everyone starts with the basics: tracking what you spend and earn in a month, or even one week if one month is too much. Be honest and non-judgemental. Track everything. Look at your big annual expenses and overall income. Understand where your money is coming from and where it's going. Once you know that, you can start to identify where to direct money that comes in, and where to stop spending money.
I also think it's a really good idea to think about your attitude to money. What ideas do you have about yourself and money? Do you spend it while you have it because historically you didn't have much? What's your history with money? What was your family like with money? Were you taught about savings and money management or not? If you can understand what your money blueprint is, that will make savings and debt repayment a lot easier, because you'll understand why you spend the way you do and how to change it to reach your financial goals.
Sorry for the novel-length comment, and hope this helps.
Another thing that you can do is to take what you already own to a tailor. That grey shirt for example would be more wearable if you cropped it to your real waist.
It’s funny cause you were always that influencer that I felt so envious off of all the workout sets and cute casual wear
I think the thing with color analysis that might be lost here is that fake tan can mess with your results. You look so fabulous in those cool tones- maybe without the tan you would lean into light summer? Such a fun video
