My concern with some of these looks is the impact of fast fashion on the workers and the environment. I know clothes are expensive, but I wonder if we are better off with less of high quality and ethically sourced clothes instead of a $50 blazer from Walmart. I have a very tiny condo with a tiny closet, so when I buy something (which isn't very often) it has to be a classic and it has to last.
What a great video, Marnie! I love seeing and hearing the reasons for the transition in outfits! Thank you, and please do more as they are most helpful. Enjoyed watching and re=thinking some of my "outfit" configurations.
Thanks for helping us fix our frump!! I thought the last “wrong” outfit was still really great (skinny jeans, blazer, heels) 🤩. The first outfit looked like something I’d try and then be like…no. 😂
Great video! Enjoyed the family room and Loved the clothing advise!! 😊
Glad you liked it!!
Wow change of top made a huge difference. Thumbs up girlfriend. First outfit
Exactly ...if you don't feel good in your outfit, that's all that matters!
Love the black, shimmery blouse with jeans; very sleek and cool!! ❤️🇨🇱
Do a video on style for spring and summer fashion
This was excellent. I’m worn out on the product videos. The how-to, technique emphasis is so strong. The new along for the ride us the way to go. Well done.
Am I the only one who has never taken her top off to get her hair done? That gave me pause.
Hahaha funny! My thoughts exactly. I’m 70 and have only been to one salon who offered “tops”. Nope that is just icky. Haha
Yes, I have never heard of that before
I think it's more icky to get cut hair, rinse water and hair products on my clothes!
I do it or wear an old shirt. Especially when I get hair colored!
Maybe it's to prevent the hair that's being cut from getting on / under the shirt. Even though I'm wearing the cover up thing from the stylist, my hair always manages to get on my clothes and on my back and it really itches!
Marnie, this video where you explained how to take an outfit from frumpy to fabulous is such a great idea! This honestly should be a series- I think many of us have clothes but don’t know how to style them. It is especially irritating when i buy new pieces that look good by themselves but I have a tough time making them look “right” when I wear them out. It would be helpful to see how to wear the new straight leg pant style with shoes and look current not like we stepped out of the 90’s.
There will definitely be more videos like this in the future!
Marnie I loved this!! I’m so tired of product videos and of spending money I don’t need to spend! This was so fun, didn’t cost me a fortune, and was actually super helpful! Keep them coming, girl💞!!
I totally agree about the skinny jeans being so much easier to style with so many shoes!!! I will wear my skinny jeans no matter what the trend is!!!
Outfit #1 It's the jogger jeans that are the problem. Not flattering. Shouldn't have to work so hard for something to look passable.
I just recently found you. You are likeable, pleasant and realistic. Your context actually has value vs other insta type influencers where they just post how cute and skinny they are and don’t give anything relatable or constructive. I like your planned out helpful content and not just being a show off like most of them are!!
Those jeans on you!!! I was blown away by how they elongate your legs - comparing the jogger style jeans, then the faux leather joggers and then those jeans - it looked like you had been put on a stretching rack! I love all the looks and love how you trust your instinct and you dissect the why of when it doesn’t work and when it does. Well done Marnie!
It will be hard to go back to "regular" jeans!
I'm thinking it's the pants on outfit #1. Not the best for you..or me.
Such a great video. This exact thing happens to me all the time. Learning what flatters us is sometimes so hard. Please keep doing this, I love seeing how you fix a look to be more flattering and feel more confident.
I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m 5’3.5 “. I have short arms and legs. My inseam is 30. When I married I was a 6, still couldn’t really style myself. Now 33 years later I’m a 16 almost in 14. I’m becoming more adventurous in clothing choices because your videos have inspired me. Thank you !!!
You may be my twin!
This video showed at the right moment, I was wondering why some of my outfits though I like every single piece didn't work together as well as I imagined. I actually feel relief. I spend quite some time working an outfit, sometimes I'm not successful either but now I have a bit more knowledge. Relief comes from knowing is not just me. Thank you for sharing.
It’s definitely not just you!!
I am 62 and am from a generation that felt elastic or a drawstring waist is a sign that you had just given up🤣. Just can't embrace wearing them for anything other than exercise or lounging (I own a couple pair). I stick with denim or a casual trouser, maybe cargo pant without the drawstring. You can even find pairs with hidden elastic in the back for comfort.
I understand that perspective. My favorite pant type is the one that has snaps and a zipper in front, hidden elastic in back.
Completely agree, Teresa! I love these videos and not trying to be mean but the problem with the first outfit is the jeans. Hands down.
Agreed- most of the time there’s no hope when you start with a bad foundation
❤ The flare Jeans! You looked like you were 20 lbs less! The best look ever :)
She doesn’t need to look 20 pounds less, or any pounds less. She looks perfect.
That sparkly top looks fantastic with those jeans!!! That pink jacket is stunning!! Great on us blondes! That's my go to kind of dress up outfit 😍 With the acception of size.....I'd ❤️ to raid your closet!!! I'm a bit heavier, working on that😁
OMG, you + hot pink is 🔥!!! Love that last look on you, Marnie! Soooo pretty! Loved this video so much! Thanks, for all the tips!
I always feel better when wearing longer jeans/pants than as short as you wear them
This video was SO helpful! I really hope you do more of these!!
Very useful tips. I work in an office at our local college (business casual). This video gave me some ideas to change up my usual work wear (blazers, etc) and weekend wear. Thanks!
Great video! This happens to me nearly every day! Please make this a series.
I will!!
Something can fit perfectly but yet be uncomfortable because it's not you. Thanks for explaining that.
The problem is the shoelace dangles right pointing to your belly. NO on the light suede cowboy boots with the straight shoelace jogger pants which do not look like jeans at all. Try a belt with the 2nd black outfit. .
Love this format. Outfit #1 couldn't be saved IMO. I just don't care for the drawstring cropped look. If the shoes were a Chestnut color rather than chocolate brown, it would have been better. I also liked the lighter pink blazer better, maybe in a size 8 since the 6 was too snug feeling. I loved the faux leather joggers and cream top on you. Question: I don't see you wearing belts with jeans much. Why ? I think sometimes it's a nice add. Keep up this format! Loved it!
I preferred the WHBM peachy blazer to the oversized hot pink, too. The hot pink one seems overwhelming and ill -fitting to me.
I agree about the front tuck. Though for me I've found it all depends on how high the rise is. If the rise is too low it can be a no-go for me. Also, the front tuck is so great for any elastic waist or drawstring waist pants. Really de-frumps the whole thing.
And sometimes the full tuck is the way to go! It’s always good to have some definition at the waist line.
This was great and you made some great points about choosing wisely and not spending money when you don’t need to!
I can certainly tell you are doing much more thoughtful prep and "homework" if you will before your styling videos. To me it appears as if you are devoting many hours to us, your viewers. I appreciate the hard work and thoughtfulness.
I'm trying!!
Interesting video, thanks for filling us in on your thought process for improving your look. I noticed some of the tops are too long in the torso and sleeves. I’m only 5’1” and know how frustrating this is, especially when petites are not available in a jacket or top I like. I finally tired of rolling up my sleeves, which IMO makes me look frumpy. In Sept I gathered up a bunch of jackets and took them to a local tailor to shorten the sleeves. What a difference that made in how I look and feel in these jackets. Torso length is still an issue, but picking the right pieces can help.
Loved this video! Really helpful
Love your videos and how hard you work on all of your content. IMO I’m just not liking the drawstring cropped jeans. I think they just look matronly and would look that way on anyone.
Fantastic video! So great to see how you updated your outfits usually realize how better mine could have been after I get home. Thanks for sharing 😮
We always think of how to do it better after the fact!!!
I think the problem with the first outfit was when you were wearing the dark pants and dark top, my eyes just went right to the bright white drawstring.
I would try to dye that drawstring the same color as the pants. It wouldn't be hard to do and would get rid of the "eye straight to the tummy" effect.
Or just tuck it in
The pants are too heavy and blocky.
Why not try to find a top that tapers in at the waist a little bit and flares out just a little bit, rather than having to tuck in a boxy looking shirt?
I loved this video, I also struggle sometimes with putting togheter an outfit. Love the background by the way. Thank you for doing these videos😘
More videos like this! I really like seeing the evolution (and honesty) of when you start with an outfit and determine it's not working, whether color, proportion, shoe, or even fit like the last blazer (which did indeed look great on you, but rather than let looks trump function or comfort, you flat out said it didn't feel good being restricted and opted for one that looked just as good BUT you felt much better in. (Chuckled when you mentioned your pooch 'is what it is'. ) Keeping it real. TY
Good morning beautiful!! I liked the lighter boots with the first outfit, loops aside lifting the pants. It's amazing how just changing the top looked more symmetrical top to bottom. Haha my girlfriend calls the pooch fupa. That's what bugs me with the tuck. You hsve to be strategic with the tuck. You nailed it!! Re-tucking after visiting the restroom is hard to get it right🤪
You do such a good job explaining everything and encouraging me to get out of my comfort zone. Thank you
I'm so glad!
Have you been watching me get dressed??? This happens to me almost every day. Please make this a series.
I love all your videos- but really loved this! My biggest issue when I walk into my closet is putting together pieces that look like they should really go together- and I do not feel comfortable- or confident in the result....completely along the lines of what you shared today! Would love to see more videos like this in the future- SO helpful!
This was so good and informative!! I thought (and I know it’s about how you feel 😁) the last pink jacket looked very good the way you styled it! The Amazon one looked too big. Just my observation - not that it matters.
Honestly didn't think you could save those first pants. (That's what I would have changed) ended up lookig good
I find this specific format very helpful. This happens to me all the time...I can't always put my finger on it... but I can tell when something isn't working. Next time I'll give you a call to help me trouble shoot. Lol!
Love love the bright pink jacket!
I have never had to remove my shirt to get my hair done! 😂
Then you're not going to the right salons! ;)
As a hair stylist I always asked people to change..had robes..color will sometimes get on the collar no matter how careful you are when rinsing. Lol I know though how that might sound funny to some people..lol
Loved this video! I, too, have clothes staring angrily at me and this gives me inspiration to try alternatives!
Great video Marnie! This happens to me all the time. This is why I always try on outfits prior to packing for a trip.
I love that you made the point that if you feel good in your outfit, you will stand taller and walk out the door smiling-- this is so true for me and I even walk a little faster and with a little kick in my step! It makes all the difference! Also agree with giving the front tuck a try-- I am in the process of losing weight (down 50lb but more to go) -- my belly does protrude more than I want and the front tuck balances it and actually makes me look thinner and shows off my weight loss.
Yes! Thank you!
Very true that if you don't feel good in something you're wearing, it'll affect you the entire time you're in it. :(
That’s the most important accessory!!
My favorite was the last outfit. LOVE the whole set up and you look fab in it.
Love this video. Thank you🌸👍
Oh, I think that last outfit is Instagram worthy👏👏👏
Yep, photo just holding your phone and living life at its best 😊
I love this idea...also I need to know which Soma bra is your fave...
I like the concept of this video. Good job!
No offense whatsoever but for myself I do like like the short pants that are ankle length or slightly above which seem to be a lot of what is available.
Really good video. I think all normal ladies struggle with “why doesn’t this outfit look right?”. It’s good to know someone like you, who is SO stylish and beautiful, have the same issues. I hope that doesn’t sound unkind, I don’t intend it to be. It makes me feel more normal to know even fashion influencers can have the same problems. Thanks for sharing, I hope you’ll do some more of these. I love all your content, keep it coming!!
We're all just like you!!
Love this format. Please do more like this. 😀
Yes, the blue denim pants in the first outfit just didn’t do you justice. I like the bright pink blazer, and I know it’s supposed to be oversized, but it looked too big or something. I was going to order the same one, but I think I’ll stick to my regular size.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this video! I often feel the same trying to put outfits together and then end up feeling frumpy because I just give up!! Thank you doing this and I’d love to see more!!!!
Great topic - always trying to figure this out! Thank you.
Sorry to be a downer. I feel the bright pink blazer is drowning you. It's too long and too wide. Try the small size. We can't all wear the oversized look, including myself, it doesn't work.
Loving the Walmart blouse especially on you!
I love that you’re talking through what works and doesn’t for an outfit. Thank you! I agree with your choices. I think your room (though beautiful) is too busy for your outfits. A plain background would be better.
This is so relatable. Do make more like this.
What a helpful video!! I like the new location, but agree with the other comments about the choosing a different tv art for the background. I love hearing you breakdown what most of us think while we are getting dressed and something doesn’t work. It’s nice to hear the “science” behind it. 😂
Looking for new art as we speak!
Loved this video. Same problems. More more more 👏🏻👏🏻
You’re absolutely right. I’m a huge fan of the tucked in and bloused button front or t-shirt. It always makes my tummy look smaller. Sometimes it is only a front tuck, and sometimes you can see my belt buckle, but I almost always blouse the front out a little
YES! I know it makes us uncomfortable to think our stomach is "exposed", but it makes a big difference!
Great info! Can’t wait for more!!,
FYI - I bought the shoe laces for my sneakers last year when I first saw them on your site- love them.
Wow - I really love this. It's extremely helpful!
Outfit #4 was outstanding. It was so complementary to your shape !
I liked your background of the family room with the exception of the blanket rack. I found it distracting.
I love the second blazer you put on. The pink with the jeans.
The first outfit looks better than the second but the pants aren't doing it for you. They look too sweatpants to dress up.
Those pants are not my best choice-but I wanted to show how you could take something that's not working and then...work with it.
Fantastic video. You also look fabulous in those jeans. They really fit you like a glove.
Oh thank you!
Just don’t like the jeans. The tie looks weird and the leg length is not flattering. That being said, you do you and I love your videos!
I tried to save them but you may be right.
ps I love this fun girlfriendy format your changes on the outfit’s were great! 🥰
Thanks Debi! It was really fun for me to film this!!
Going back to a previous video. . Being 60 I avoided the new clunky heal boots. I followed you advise and love them. I think I look younger and cooler, but not mutton dressed as lamb
You are so right about the blazer. Nothing will ruin my day faster than a jacket that feels like a straight jacket or makes me hot. I find I avoid wearing most of my blazers and I have a closet full of them because they feel like I’m wearing a wet blanket.
I find this type of video so helpful and interesting. Those jeans were made for you! I really enjoy hearing your thought process. It encourages me to do the same for myself. Often it is the little changes. RUclipsr Hannah Louise Poston advocates picking your “star” piece ( the item you really want wear) and then building the outfit around that. Helps to keep you focused. It find it a very helpful tip. I finally ordered the no-tie laces, thanks for the reminder 😉🇨🇦
Great video! I often struggle with feeling frumpy even when I like each individual piece. Your before and Afters really made a big difference.
This was great! If I'm fussing with my clothes, I'm not comfortable or confident. Wouldn't mind seeing more ideas on how to get it right 😉
I agree that straight legs are difficult to pair with the right shoes.
Loved all the 2nd options you had. They looked really good. Thanks for sharing. Love your videos😊
I wonder about wearing a belt with the jeans and blazer look, is it out of style now?
Love this style video Marnie. It was helpful on how changing shoes or a piece of the clothing makes the outfit better. I agree with others that the picture was distracting. Enjoy your weekend !❤
Glad it was helpful-and I'm going to change the art ASAP!!
This was very helpful, great video. I like the new cabinet in the living room.
Loved this video. Now I trust my own eye instead of hard and fast rules. Thanks!
Thank you for being realistic in your fashion sense. It's makes me feel normal with my struggles.
I really appreciate your twist on this style of video. It felt less accusatory than some others I have seen. Love the positivity 😊
We're all in this together!
this video was so much fun. thank you 😊
Love this type of video. You make mistakes too but also show us how to correct.
I make mistakes on a very regular basis!
The flared jeans look fabulous on you !! ❤😊
Oh thank you!
Great content. I've watched several of your videos. I realized today, why I can't implement some of your advice.....I have a very different body type so lots of the looks you rock in your vids do not work on me. 😉
Love the changes you made, and the tips. I stay so far away from tucking in my shirts, but maybe will give it a try as you said. I always feel it does not flatter my short frame 😂 I also ADORE the sparkly peplum top
I can't wear my shirt tucked in either.
@@SarahsAtticOfTreasures I am not sure if it is just me. It if I really can’t, so I need to try :)
Obviously we all have different body types, but just try it at home. If you hate it, no one will have seen it!!
I am so glad you said what you said about wearing a tight top if you're wearing loose bottoms. I heard that suggestion or line of thought a while ago and have tried to follow that "rule" , and it definitely does not work for me everytime! Plus, I'm smk on top and a tighter fit isn't very flattering. It's good to challenge the rules of thumb sometimes. Thanks Marnie. 🌟
Great job! You made wonderful changes in some awkward outfits! You look great!
Thank you so much!!
Loved all the outfits. They looked great. However, I do not like color wash on the flare jeans. Just looks super outdated. I know these things go in and out of style, but to me this is one of those things that are never in style. It makes them look cheap. They need to be lighter or darker, but for me these don’t look high end at all. The flare cut is so fabulous on you. Loved everything, except this one tiny thing.
I keep backing up the video. Maybe it’s just the lighting.🤷🏻♀️
I like almost all washes of denim (except for very pale/acid wash). There’s not just one single tone, they all ‘have their place’ and the ones she wears here are fine by me.
As soon as I originally saw your reel with the black corduroy outfit, I ordered it for myself in the pink. Love the comfort & feel of it, but I’m thin and petite. It looks ridiculous on me, but I still kept it. I did wear it with a tank, but buttoned jacket back up. I’ll try unbuttoned. I’m definitely going to keep wearing it. It’s SO comfortable, but I will be more conscious of WHERE I’m wearing it. 😂 Thanks, Marnie!
Love, love this video...very helpful!!
LOVED this video Marnie! Thank you SO much! I appreciated you sharing what was going on in your head and hearing your suggestions and strategies to make it work and come together. I get very frustrated trying to pair clothing into an outfit and end up taking everything back off and throwing it angrily onto the floor of my closet! BTW~ The pale pink blazer from WHBM looked awesome on you...perhaps comfort would be restored if you sized up?? Just a thought! Have a great wknd with Michael!
