Thank you for bringing in all the old pictures of princess Diana and love story one of my favorite movies!
Beth, I love that movie!. Now Ali Mac Graw has a great style too, very different than then, but I like too
love Ali! her hair is to die for.
How about a little interview between Beth and Ali?
Would be very interesting, I'm sure...
I love the classic/preppy look. It’s my signature look. 💗
Love that!
Hello Kelli
Love the tennis sweater outfit on you! Also, thanks for sharing pics from Love Story. At 65, I remember what a hit that movie was.
What a great memory!
Hello Dee
Yes, Love Story, what great style in that movie. A real tear-jerker, too.
I love your style and elegance Beth. I particularly love your classic style and, as an English lady "of a certain age", I really appreciate your brilliant advice and insight. Thank you. x
You are so welcome!
Excellent history, explanation, and examples on my favorite style. JCrew is my favorite store. Excellent video!
Your class and energy is so lovely to watch. I am 55 and aging with grace and style is a part of that. Love what you teach. 🍑🙌🏻Lisa
I so appreciate you being here!
@@BethDjalali
I literally think you are the first big channel to say that to me. Thank You and have a lovely Easter Sunday. 🧡🙌🏻🍑Lisa
Beth I mean it, Some days I feel very alone on the beauty channels. Being a holistic master esthetician is an anomaly. Thank you for always being so kind. 🧡🙌🏻🍑Lisa
@@PeachesSkinCare it can be, but more and more women are understanding the importance of self-care the right way. Hang in there!
@@BethDjalali
It’s the other channels not the subscribers.
You are a hug today. Thank You 🙌🏻🍑Lisa
Beth, you always look so glamorous and stylish
PS. Oscar is always the perfect accessory! ❤️❤️❤️
WOW! You certainly know how to put things together. Love love your fashion sense.
Thank you so much!
Hello Beverley
Ali’s white jeans and black flip flops and graphic tee could have been seen this morning on the street! Classic.
What a timeless outfit!
Life is full of uncertainties but there will always be a sunrise after every sunset Good morning
Love your style and love preppy style all my life.🌷
Love that!
The second look is gorgeous, love the colours. Thank you so much. The bag is cute.
Love your dog- shepherds are the best
truly one of the best breeds! love oscar to bits.
Agreed. Have two myself. ♥️They are so loyal!
I have loved classic/preppy, too, since I was a teenager in the 70s, then throughout my college and early career years in the 80s. When I turned 60 last year, I gave up wearing California Boho to blend in with the local style, and returned to my classic/preppy roots. I feel like me again.
Sometimes different styles suit us at different life stages. funny how we often go back to what we loved in our youth? It is comforting, somehow.
Oh Beth you inspire me. I have always loved preppy style and I dress that away. You are such a beautiful lady and I love your aging with grace motto. Thank you!
Love your preppy style looks Beth, also loving the beautiful colours on you 💛💙💚
Thanks Beth...Love Story is just the best. Loved the skirt outfit, and I would definitely wear with my white sneakers. (when not wearing my Weejuns!). Happy Easter.
You are so welcome! Happy Easter.
Wrap coat is a classic. Love the ankle length pant and sleeveless tops with ballet flats and sneakers. White and black t shirts look classic with blue jeans... Levis and Lee jeans always look great on women with the cuff up or rolled up to the mid calf with sneakers and a hoodie sweatshirt. Cardigans are classic when worn as a tippet around the shoulder as a scarf or layered with a blazer. Looks great with wellies and a trench coat or a shiny rain slicker. Cute florals always play up spring and plaid makes winter fashions fun. Black riding boots are always classic. Shirt dresses and polo dresses are timeless and a basic boat neck shift will carry you through seasons, year after year. Classic, not trends, make a wardrobe.
I still use the expression "love means never having to say u're sorry" lol!
Your knowledge on fashion is amazing and so enjoy listening to your stories. Diana was a Sloane Ranger - in my opinion not so preppy! I've been in love with pearls because of Diana and wear them often with everything.
Adore all your outfits and accessories
Wonderful video thank u Beth
Thanks for watching! Yes, Lady Di was called a Sloan Ranger. But so many elements of preppy style fit into that style too that I just had to mention.
@@BethDjalali 🥰😍🤩
For me as a German the terms Sloan Ranger and Preppy are unknown. I do however recognize a certain style in the fashion of Ali McGraw in Love Story. Actually I knew a girl in the 1970s who looked like her and wore similar clothes. She also had that natural hairstyle, hardly any make up and bushy eyebrows.
I would have called this style (elegant) college girl look.... :--))
Lady Di has quite a different style I think. More colour, more pattern, more embellishments.
So I would prefer Ali's look, because I think you are on the safer side with her fashion.
Thanks so much to you, Beth, all your explanations are very interesting.
Compliments from Germany!
@@elisabethlinz4256 Preppy comes from prep (college preparatory) schools in the US. Sloane Square is a posh neighbourhood in London where Diana and her set hung out. Diana was a real trail-blazer in fashion, just like Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. Curious who the German fashion icons are? I love German designers, such great quality and cut. There must be some very well-dressed women in Germany?
@@maryokeefe5351
Mary, I am so amazed that you took the time and explained the unknown words to me. Thank you very much... how nice of you! The Sloan word is a real insider term as I can see now.
German fashion has the reputation to be of solid quality.... Made in Germany once was a trustworthy label.... :--))... :--))
Globalist times however have changed many things.
Who is a fashion icon in Germany.... Hard question.
Our chancellor??? Not really.
Actually I think of private acquaintances, when I think of well dressed women. The above mentioned Ali McGraw lookalike would be still today one of them.
Thanks again and best wishes. (Are you American or British?)
I grew up in a very upscale neighborhood in Rye, NY. There was a store in town called “The Prep and College Shop.” I have 4 Lilly dresses, shorts, rompers and blouses. I think preppy summer clothes are very classic but comfortable. You don’t see many people wearing preppy clothing anymore but for me it’s an easy, very wearable style .
Thanks for sharing!
I was at Talbots last week and the moment I saw the skirt I told my sister I bet Beth will buy this. Here we are! It is so much you. You wear it so well. Love it, a little too much for me but it looks good on you.
Ha ha! That’s priceless!
I adore preppy style. I remember wanting to much to be Ali MacGraw back in the day (or even now to be honest as she’s aged beautifully and authentically). I have many of the pieces you mix and match and now that I’ve subscribed am able to see how to put them together. I was lucky enough to find a pair of Tommy Hilfiger shorts for $5 at the local thrift shop last weekend. Score!
Boy I hadn’t thought about Love Story in forever. What a great movie! I love this preppy style & loved the shirt you’re wearing! Btw, pants are not too tight, you look amazing!
Thank you! I think the pants fit well. Just a little snugger than a typical Talbots size 8.
I agree, pants very flattering on you.
Life is full of uncertainties but there will always be a sunrise after every sunset Good morning
Good day to you beth.stay safe always.God bless you.
I think you look beautiful in all 3 outfits. I too love preppy style. You have inspired me to try the flowered jeans and tennis sweater. I am going to visit Talbots ASAP. Thank you Beth
Yay! Thank you!
That was fun, Beth! Love Story sure popularized the preppy look in America. I actually think the prep school uniform thing was derived from British "public" schools. Ralph Lauren is often attributed with copying English Country Style, commercializing it, and then selling it back to the Brits! Much like the US shoemaker copying Jackie's Italian sandals and re-branding them as his own. Ralph Lauren staff are often found trolls yard sales in the English countryside, looking for old saddles, steamer trunks, etc. for their store displays. Lily Pulitzer, however, is uniquely American, sort of a country club/Florida look, which you would never see in the UK or continental Europe. Love this convo, maybe compare French and Italian style sometime? Thanks for all your great ideas.
You’re so right about the classic style, it’s timeless. I also tapped into that style in my teens, I’m glad my mom recognized how I gravitated toward it, she sewed most of my clothing. In my working days, it served me well, always classic!
Hello Cynthia
I too, love preppie style. The good news for me is, with the exception of J. McLaughlin and Tommy Hilfiger, the other designers mentioned include some styles in petite. Love the looks you’ve put together. And Ali MacGraw could still wear all of those clothes from Love Story today!
hopefully, all of the brands will cater to petites and plus sizes. you are so right about Ali wearing all of those clothes today.
She was so gorgeous, such a natural beauty. I think that's why the simple cuts of her clothes in Love Story really let the woman shine.
Hello Maureen
@@maryokeefe5351 And she’s still gorgeous. I saw Ali MacGraw when she teamed with Ryan O’Neal on stage to read Love Letters (I think that was the title) and they have both aged gracefully. They look like themselves, just older.
Love this video! A great example that preppy style will always be a favorite 💟
Ali McGraw and Ryan O'Neal were on CBS Sunday Morning two weeks ago remembering the filming of Love Story .
You could see how much they still care for each other after 50 years!
You can watch it here on RUclips!
Thank you for doing this style! It is my absolute favorite style. I just watched Love Story a few days ago. My all time favorite movie. Love your channel!
Love it all. I love pattern pants and skirts and those were gorgeous. More of a nice feeling of spring coming.
Hi Sherree
Preppy style is so awesome!! I like the fact you tell us where/ what stores that have these things!! Love preppy!! You can’t really go wrong with it!!
Beth, great history! Found this interesting and inspiring!! Thank you so much!!
You are so welcome!
Hi Diane
Love Story! Loved the movie + the book! That took me back some years when the age I am now would have been considered old! You have a lovely style + transcends downunder to Australia, you always offer wonderful ideas✅✅✅
thanks so much for your sweet words.
Wow wow! Everything about this is amazing. You are lovely and so knowledgeable and very pleasant to watch. I am a mother of small children in my early 30s but this is how I love to dress, so I did a search and your video came up. I only discovered recently that this style is called “preppy”, but it explains why I’ve always been drawn to Ralph Lauren! I’m excited to see more from you. I have been trying to transition my wardrobe from frumpy to classic style. 💕 You really do have a regal, energetic quality!
I love your preppy style of dressing Beth.you're a classic and elegant dresser.actually i love all your style be it casual or formal.
Keep safe Beth.God bless you.☺️
Oh thank you!
Very informative today... love the looks and the lesson.
Glad you liked it!!
Nice outfits, but the shirtdress is my favorite.
Good choice!
Love fashion enjoy watching.
I love the style production of Bonnie and Clyde
Great movie! And great style.
Hello Angela
I also have loved preppy style since Love Story. Ali McGraw was my hero in college. You always look so spot on.
Oh thank you!
Thank you for the video today Beth. I follow you regularly and like your style. I use it as a guideline for buying new pieces this year. I do notice people leaving the shoulder strap on their handbag dangling which is not something that I care for, but each to his own. Continue the good videos. Look forward to them.
Someone asked
That question on the blog. I keep the longer strap attached for hands free shopping or hands free grocery bags. I never know when I’ll need the long strap so it just stays put for convenience:
@@BethDjalali Also meant to tell you that the blue dress looks great on you.
@@beachgal1835 ha ha! Then you know what a “hit” it is on FB! Dear Lord, that channel...
I picked outfit number #2 from the Talbots catalogue and I see you got it. I am learning! You look gorgeous in all three outfits!
It’s so cute! I always have a tennis sweater on hand! See? Fashion and style are easily learned. Keep going!
Hello Virginia
Happy Easter Beth!🐇🌷
Thank you! 🤗 Happy Easter.
Thanks, Beth for another good video - I am glad I don't throw much away because I dug out an old white denim jacket and a pair of white leather sneakers that look just like the keds we wore as kids - I guess the classics do hang around - I love the blouse you are wearing - Could you provide a link in the next video - Happy Easter - Peace
Good for you! Nothing better than shopping your closet:
LOVE Preppy Style, too! Ali McGraw was sooooo fantastic in Love Store for her clothing and her long dark hair. A lot of us wanted to be Ali! Good choices from Talbot. Now that I've learned that, yes, I love classics but it moves into Preppy, I've bought quite a bit from Talbots this Winter and Spring. A few pieces from RL and Tommy Hilfiger. The bad news about TH is that this Spring he's changed the demographics for his target customer. He's now designing STREET STYLE for the 15-early 20's. That explains why I've seen so many rock-bottom sales on the "old" TH looks!
Happy Easter, Beth.🐰
Yes, you are my preppy You Tube Channel.
Peace and Blessings.💞🌹
Same to you!
I love preppy classic style! Great looks! I had the look with the pants already saved as inspiration! Thanks Beth!
Glad you like them!
Yes ! Love, Love...this video. I totally agree the prep stores are Talbots, JCrew, Ralph Lauren! 🤗🤗🤗
The best!
It’s a funny thing. I know I’m not a ‘preppy’ dresser but I love and would wear outfit #1. I shop at Talbots frequently and I have several RLL pieces in my wardrobe. I think of myself as more of an edgy classic, if that’s a thing. 🤷♀️
Love that!
Hi Tracy
Hi Beth! I love all of these looks!! Happy Easter!!
Thank you! Happy Easter!
Appreciate the history lesson
Lovely 💕 colorful shirt
Love your style. ❤️
Thank you so much!
Thank you 🧡🌹 That was very interesting to see! Greetings from Germany, 🙋 Monika
Thank you! Cheers!
Much love
, Beth 🙏💐❤️!
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful presentation, very extravagant. I wish you all lasting happiness, success and progress in your work. Health and Safety with sincere thanks and respect.💕💜💕
My favorite style as well
Love Talbots! 💕
I want to add that a scarf can make your outfit along with simple classic jewlery, pearls, gold earrings in a hoop, a bangle bracelet and a solitary diamond and plain wedding band.
Im planning on doing a semester abroad in Italy and if I like it I'm going to do my masters there too. And I want to bring this American style and aesthetic.
Love the striped tee with the shirt! I just ordered that skirt a few days ago. Love your looks you inspire me. Stay well
Thank you! You too!
Loved the outfits🤗🤗😉
Yay! Thank you!
Truly enjoyed the video! I learned so much! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Love your stacked bracelets 🌸
I've always been a Preppy and that's when it started for me also Love Story.. But my mom was a Preppy and a Lilly pulitzer.
Hi Jeanne
I'm 58 and as a youngster, I would shop at The Gap in Cambridge, Mass. I attended a private high school and wore very preppy uniforms. Therefore as an adult I rebelled and wore anything other than what might have been considered preppy. Now that I'm a woman of a particular age, preppy is all I wear!
Too funny! I loathed my mother's style as a teenager. Now I know it was the bomb! Don't we love to rebel at that age?
Wish you would list where you purchased shirt you’re wearing. Loved it!
I just updated the links but here you go: shopstyle.it/l/btjOs
Life is full of uncertainties but there will always be a sunrise after every sunset Good morning
Brooks Brothers is a source of classic/preppy clothes too
I have a pair of Jack Rogers sandals that I still love, after about 15 years. However, I don't find them super comfortable. The toe separator is a bit difficult to wear for a long day. I save them for when I don't have to do a lot of walking.
Thanks for sharing! Some women complain about the footbed too. I am lucky as neither give me trouble.
Beth, I live in New England and have loved the preppy style. Do you remember a flat called Papagallo? Not sure if I spelled it correctly.
Also Pendleton, Villager and Drummer sweaters? And of course Bermuda bags. Loved it all!
Hello Cam
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Super super filmik❤️👍❤️
Beth, my other favorite RUclipsr is Marie Anne Lacoeur who teaches French style. Marie Anne recently said she would love to do a collaboration with an American style blogger. She gets a lot of requests about American style. Since she is French she doesn’t really do American style and would love to share it with her subs. I think you would be a perfect pairing. Please check her out. Also, I have a closet full of Lilly shifts and tops as well as Jacks. Since we have a beach condo, it is my summer uniform.
Yes!, good idea, Marie Anne’s English is very good and she has a nice sense of humor.
Yes I've recommended Marie-Anne as well, and agree she would be a great match with Beth.
thank you. Marie-Anne and I have been in touch. Stay tuned.
@@BethDjalali And you are both gracious and kind, so it should be a nice fit.
I joke classic style. Good video
thanks for watching!
Hi Beth,
I live in Nashville and I think every woman in my neighborhood shops at Talbots. My son calls it the Soccer Mom uniform store. And he's kinda right... I coached his Soccer team 3 yrs and we would laugh about Moms wearing the same pants, tops, sweaters. Don't misunderstand, I love lots of their clothes and buy them, but I'm tired of looking exactly like my neighbor. How can I do preppy in Spring and feel more unique? I've been thrifting now that stores are reopen and found a couple cute pieces... a pencil skirt in light blue, and a peacoat in pink wool. Also, pale pink jeans. How do you dress differently than your friends or neighbors, and still hit up your favorite stores?
lots of different ways to rock the same item. that's where your personal spin comes in with accessories - shoes, jewelry, sunglasses, and handbags are a start. wear the skirt with a chambray shirt or a tee with a chambray shirt popped over the top. honestly, the options are endless. And I would suggest taking an item from a mid-price brand and add a luxury brand. True high/low dressing.
Los 3 🤩🥰
Que linda me encanta

Wow. You had a reader tell you the pants were too tight? That's shameful, IMHO. I go by the say something nice or hush motto.
No, she wasn’t talking about me. She tried a pair on and shared they were too tight in the legs. I
But I had quite few readers on Facebook that role me the blue dress made me look fat and/or old. Gotta love social media.
@@BethDjalali Oh My! Gotta roll with the punches, I suppose. I think you look fabulous in everything you post and I appreciate you digging down into the history of items, I find that so interesting. I was preppy once, back when the Preppy Handbook came out but it's only mildly my style.
👌🍀
🌺💫👌
I thought Ali’s character was a “Cliffie” not Wellesly college alumna.
Iste kukla sas thavmazo Thank you ....Greece...Eleni 67...
thanks so much for watching!
Beth...I really don't understand why so many women do not dress according to what makes them happy, stylist, comfortable. I hate trends, cookie cutter styles!...I love being stylish, comfortable, etc...There is Karenbritchick....I simply love her c hanel from New York!...she Stresses the importance of wearing what makes a woman stylish, happy, her individuality , NOT cookie cutter trendy, looking like someone else!...This is 2021!....Women are excelling in all areas of life...but it makes me so irritated seeing everyone dressing like someone else. I love being a woman, being sleek, stylish, exhibiting my own choice, taste, individuality, class in the clothing I wear...Just sick and tired of the old, stuffy, carbon copy , trendy , style of clothing that others insist someone should wear!....I really hope women find their own style, in clothing...Exhibiting color, class, style, fun, sexiness, art, great fit/cut, strength, even being comfortable and confidence in their choices of style....Women, please know or fully learn who you are and exhibit your own style, taste, reflecting your personality and individuality...
Then wear what you love. That’s what style is all about. I applaud channels like KarenBritChick. And if they inspire you that’s even better. I, personally, would not feel comfortable with her looks. I know what I love and wear what I love! And you should too. There are so many amazing RUclipsrs you would love. No need to stick around here.
Seventh - It may be hard to comprehend but there are women who do not have a sense of design or are not that concerned about the visual - It does not mean they are not individuals - I have a friend who is has a Ph.D. in Chemistry and a very demanding job - She never wants to think about clothes or interior design so if it looks good on the manikin she buys it and she hires people to decorate her house - But, she is definitely an individual.
@@carolirvine7663 that thought slipped my mind.....thank you
@@BethDjalali Beth, I was commenting on Karenbritchick due her always assuring women to wear what they like, not being told to follow this or that trend. And yes, there are other You Tubers...most of them constantly focusing trends !...And as far as your nastiness, narcissism, and Trump-like attitude...being offended at someone giving their opinion....I and some others no longer stick sround...get your head out of your but and out of the air....#old and bitter
Beth, l’ve been viewing your blogs, Instagram and catching your style on Pinterest for some time.... I mean no disrespect....so “haters”, pls don’t take issue....however, I hope you know that you have
“ women of a color” who subscribe to your channel as well. Do you have any “Icons” of color whose style you like/love as well? Women of color whose products that you support, or that you pair with in regards to challenges? I know most “WOACA” shop at Nordstrom, Macy’s, Ann, BR, Talbots,Chico’s, etc..... just asking🌹
thanks so much for your input. i should have included former First Lady Michelle Obama. she rocked J.Crew outfits like no other.
I think Beth looks best with pants and tops. I love how she layers her outfit. Very classy looking. But with dress and skirts? I find it a little off on her. Specifically the ones that hit around the mid thigh. Kind of awkward looking due to its length. I see some woman in their 60’s that can still pull it off. I think it depends on the body type. No offense meant. Just an honest opinion.
no offense taken. but isn't it fantastic we live in a world where we can make our own choices? me? i'll be rocking skirts and dresses for decades.
I wouldn't say 'preppy style' is American - far from it Many, many countries have 'preppy style' especially here in the UK in London. Its simply wrong to say its an American style - it simply is not just American
Preppy style is an iconic American style that started in the 1920’s. Yes, I stated in the video that other countries have adopted this style but it is uniquely American.
@@BethDjalali sorry thats just incorrect
@@danielab2100 the. Share where Preppy Style originated. Enquiring minds want to know. But I stand by 1920’s America based on East Coast private school aesthetic.
@@danielab2100 I think your point is valid.
@@sassydoe9407 thank you. I just have seen another you tuber talk about how the 'preppy style' was/is in many countries and far from 'started' in America... as I say its just so wrong to say that when so so many people of that generation in many different countries wore the style... its just a very inaccurate and wrong statement
