    I love that people these days want to dress like her but what made her so interesting is that she stuck to her own style . You can’t emulate that , just be yourself! Be authentic!

    • @Tory1776
      @Tory1776 Month ago +15

      I think what we could learn from Carolyn is to do what works for you and what looks good on you. She looked AMAZING in what she wore. Some of her stuff I couldn’t pull off - but you can look and how she did things and think, hey, X is a bad choice, and Y is the better one for these reasons. And make it your own. I think there’s something to be said for a good basic workhorse of a black bag that’s quality (and you don’t need to be in Kelly territory to get that) and pieces that mix and match well. I think Princess Diana did the same thing. I think the current Princess of Wales does that as well (and maybe even better than Diana did). Don’t fall for trends. It doesn’t matter if it’s hip. It matters if it looks good on you. Pick pieces wisely and be calculated. And I think “be authentic” is a great mantra that ties in with all of that.

    Now that the Kardashians are fond of their Hermes Birkin and Kelly bags, I don’t think Carolyn would still be carrying them. They’re now associated with tacky new money folks and Carolyn was anything but.

      Not necessarily. Pristine, twilly tied, over babied Birkins and Kellys are kind of cringe. Lived in Birkins and Kelly bags are not. Carolyn was not from old money. Her parents were upper middle class. Even the Kennedys are not "old money". It takes SEVEN generations of great wealth to qualify. And BTW-all new money is not "tacky".

    Let’s face it, beautiful women can wear anything and look classy. I have a beautiful friend and she can roll out of bed, brush her hair and teeth, throw on jeans and look stunning while I’m still trying to wake up. She could have carried a brown paper bag and everyone would think if they carried one they could look like her:)

      ​@kellylamarco3753No offense, but I never liked that scent. Too hippie for me (my roommates were from Woodstock). And as you likely know, it was popular before the 70's. It's so strong imo, I can still smell it 30 years later, lol!

    Fashion designer Narciso Rodriguez was a very close friend and her wedding dress designer. His eponymous debut fragrance Narciso Rodriguez was inspired by a perfume oil Carolyn wore that she used to purchase from an African American street vendor. The perfume oil is by Abdul Kareem and was named Egyptian Musk Oil. You can still get it today.

      @Tory1776 Month ago +5

      I think most of us were. I hate that she was driven so far into her own world and that we knew so little about her. I’m not saying we needed to know everything - things I’ve read about her are that she was a genuinely kind, friendly, and funny person, and it’s just sad that the paparazzi sort of beat that out of her and made her feel she was hunted (she was). JFK Jr was so outgoing and vivacious and…so KENNEDY. I can’t imagine him not choosing someone who was much the same as him, and it’s so sad that what the press put her through squelched that. I’m sure it messed with her head when Princess Diana died. How could it not?
      She’d be 60 this year. I’m only 53 and have already lived so much longer than all three of those young people on that plane that day.

    • @flufentine3284
      @flufentine3284 26 days ago

      ​@Tory1776 There are other accounts of her personality that don't match her looks. She and John fought constantly in public. She set her sights on John and knew press was part of the package.
      There would be no image they were different from anyone else if not for the press.
      Don't take me wrong but it reminds me of Megan Markle playbook. Set her goal, snagged said goal then played the martyr when pursued by press because she's royalty.
      Kennedys are "American Royalty" MM is an anti fashion joke!
      Don't get me wrong..Carolyn was beautiful with great style and figure to carry it off. Megan on the other hand..need I say more?
      Lol! Fancies herself Diana 2.0

    I didn’t know her, but at the time it was completely normal for me to dress in a very minimalist way (I’m European). There were the people who still dressed very colorfully, and then there were those who had that particular style. The one who was always impeccably dressed during that time was Caroline of Monaco.

      @kristineantonelli3146 I would have given ANYTHING to have her thick blonde hair. I had her haircut - but I had to (lol) get a light perm in it to pull it off because my hair is so fine. I have a lot of it - but it’s just not the right texture without some help. I went through my Princess Diana hair phase as well before Meg Ryan.

    • @SylviaAveryHook
      @SylviaAveryHook Month ago +15

      We can be fairly certain that she wouldn’t be wearing items associated with new money. She wouldn’t wear clothes that display logos and she definitely wouldn’t be wearing anything worn by the Kardashians or Lauren Bezos. She was carrying Hermes Birkin and Kelly bags while they were seen as old money. Now the Kardashians are into Hermes Birkin and Kelly bags (Kim Kardashian is known as a “Birkin mom”), so I think Carolyn would no longer be carrying them. Her style was old money; nouveau riche is perceived as gauche.
      I think it likely that she would wear a Patek Philippe watch. I don’t think they’ve been discovered by the nouveau riche.

    • @Poppy-mi4sf

      One of my least favorite 90s trends, and they’ve come back! I think your face has to be the right width. They weren’t too wide for her face, but I think they were the trendiest item she wore

    No, during that time ( ‘96 ish) you could walk in and buy a birkin and a
    kelly.

    Have you ever considered a stylish leather backpack? I have frozen shoulder, so this was my first time buying one, but most of them weren't very attractive... I bought a leather backpack from *yutulu* and the experience was pretty good.

      There’s not a lot of clips of her voice. Some random snippets here and there.

    I cannot for the life of me find a black high v-neck sweater like she wore with the skirt and boots when the paps were taking their picture in front of their apartment. Anyone have any leads where I could find one? I had one just like it back in the 90’s but it’s long gone.

    • @MyCrownstar
      @MyCrownstar Month ago +5

      I'd suggest searching the men's sweater department. Men's v necks are usually higher. Probably find great quality also.

    She wore classic makeup brands! I wonder what she would think about the makeup today!

  • @Wouldntyouliketoknow1111

    Was there a whole years long process to get a birkin back in the 90s?

    • @CulturedElegance
      @CulturedElegance Month ago +1

      Sadly I do not know! I imagine it was a lot less difficult to get one than it is today though!

  • @katiesykes2215

    The smaller sunglasses and rigid headband were so 90s. Not to mention the thin eyebrows. She would have been even more gorgeous with natural brows

  • @Tory1776

    The reason Carolyn’s look works now is she didn’t go for fads. She went for classics. She was class and was classy - two distinct concepts that she blended beautifully. Rest in peace, Carolyn. John may have made mistakes that day - but he never set out to hurt either of you. ❤❤

    • @dhernandez4386
      @dhernandez4386 Month ago +2

      She was a bohemian girl at heart. She curated this vibe after she got with John. She wasn’t a stranger to sweats, sneakers, and sweatshirts. She was more than these brands and wasn’t a brand snob.

    • @Tory1776
      @Tory1776 Month ago +1

      @dhernandez4386 she was working toward this look WELL before Kennedy. She picked it up when she started working deep in the NYC fashion world, which makes sense.

    The LLbean bag she carried is a large not extra large like you mentioned here. I watched your video bought an extra large, turns out it’s too big, the proportion is all wrong.
