Minimalist summer wardrobe update ☀️ Overcoming insecurities
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 июн 2024
- Having a minimalist travel wardrobe is not an easy task, especially when you’re traveling long-term. I had to re-evaluate my all-season capsule wardrobe once again, honestly and pragmatically. In this video, I’m sharing which items I’ve decluttered and why, what I bought and why, and also chat about body insecurities and the role of clothes in our life.

Ana, you are a very beautiful woman with a great personality and spirit)))) All the very best to Brian and you!!!
Thank you so much, Michael! Sending best wishes from both of us ☘
Ana, your crocheted clutch is lovely. The design you created from your "leftover" yarn looks like pretty little flowers. You definitely could sell those! God's blessings to your and your loved ones
Thank you so much, Mandy! Sending love to you too 💛
I love your new additions! More importantly, I love you, my dear. Still sane, in spite of all the “stuff” you have been through. I admire and appreciate your wisdom and commitment to the things in life that matter.
Thank you, dear Julie 🤗 You're so kind to me... It warms my heart. Sending you much love 💖
I love linen and cotton for summer! I was about to say "don't worry, my skin is even paler than yours" but then I realised this is just feeding into toxic beauty stereotypes/ standards. I suffer from insecurity about my skin too, and in the past wore long sleeves and pants in the summer because I was too ashamed of not being tan and have also been teased (even lightheartedly still had an affect on me) for being too pale. So long story short, you're not alone in your insecurities and your courage is inspirational 💛
Oh, Alessandra, I feel you! All kinds of stereotypes bring nothing but isolation and insecurities. I'm so glad to see how more and more we're moving towards accepting and embracing the diversity of humans in general. Keep your real beauty shining! 😘
People seem to think it’s okay to make fun of people with very fair skin. It’s hard not to feel self conscious in shorts or tanks. I always feel bad in clothes like that or at the pool or beach. 😢
@@macandfire5477 Feel you💟
I have Scottish heritage so have been blessed with red hair and fair skin.Throughout my youth l was both frustrated and self conscious at not being able to tan.l too was teased by a supposed friend and sometimes remember how embarrassed l felt.Now at 67 years of age l have been told l have good skin which is ironic! I live in Australia which has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world so my aversion to direct sunlight in Summer has had very real benefits.Be proud of your beautiful skin Anna...it is who you are and it's lovely ❤
Beautiful phrase Ana: "We use clothes to adjust to the reality around." It's so true. The way we look outside is often the way we feel.
I had never seen you so happy.
Stay well! =)
Thank you so much, dearest Lidia 😘 I'm feeling happy now, it's precious... Hope I'm sharing it with all the community of friends here 💚
I enjoyed your comment where you said in essence, that we should not confine ourselves to what compliments our looks but what makes us happy. I needed that.
🤗💚
Dear Anna, I can't tell you how much I appreciate and love your content and can't thank you enough for the simple yet intense things I got to learn from you. you are truly amazing.
also I loved your previous wardrobe and the current updated wardrobe is lovely too. It feels so fresh and thoughtfully curated. you never cared about the trends and managed to remember why you bought a piece. I especially liked your boho shirt. I hope you let yourself get that dress you long for soon.
Oh, I'm so delighted to hear this, my friend! Thank you 💖 It's the best reward for me.
Sending much love 🌸
Dear Ana. Thank you for sharing this video. I don't like the heat and humudity and prefer cooler weather. Have to say that the shorts look good on you, no need to feel insecure 😊. As you say: nobody cares about it, you are the only one who pays attention and it's only important how you feel. Best wishes 👋
Thanks so much for watching, dear Anita! Aww, you're so sweet 😊 Yep, how we feel is most important.
My husband and I love linen. I love loose fitting clothing. I have fibromyalgia and am autistic so a slightly rough seam or tight sleeve physically hurts if I wear it for more than a few minutes. Your new wardrobe pieces are beautiful. I crochet (and knit) for comfort, too, and most of the things I make are passed on to charity. Blessed Be
It must be very challenging to find the right fit and the fabric that is gentle enough on your skin, my friend...
It's so touching that you crochet/knit items for charity 💖
Sending much love!
I absolutely love your updated wardrobe! I loved how you dressed since your early videos. It's feels so original to me and seems very comfortable. Your knitted collars are so pretty, I'm glad you kept a few of them. And I think your legs are beautiful are nothing to be self-conscious about! Best wishes for the weekend to the two of you 💐
Hi Agata! Thanks so much for watching and being kind 🤗 Wishing you a beautiful weekend, too 🌼
Same.
Growing up in Poland, I was very self-conscious of my pale skin, particularly legs and would also never show them in the summer. All because the beauty standard was/is taned skin and people would look or make comments about "you need to get some sun" and stuff like that. After moving to Canada though, I realized very quickly that nobody here cares. It was very liberating.
I understand you so well! Have been getting the same comments throughout my life, too 😄 I'm glad you feel liberated now! It's utterly important...
I got teased for having pale skin as a kid in the US. I lived in Japan for a while and people told me my pale skin was beautiful 😅 it gave me a different perspective. As an adult, I just try to embrace the fact that I'm pale.
@@moldypotatochip I'm not sure I can embrace it, but at least I don't feel bad about it anymore LOL
Dear Ana, thank you for sharing your clothes items. I agree with you about the leggings. I’m 74 & live with my husband for the past 21 years on our 47’ sailboat in the San Francisco area. I have several pair of leggings & they are the most comfortable, I even sleep in them on chilly nights. Always look forward to your videos. 🍃🌷🍃
🤗💖🌞
Refreshing video as usual! I must admit that as I get older, I find myself choosing just the clothes that I want to wear...mixing different styles, fabrics and colors that I used to be so particular about....allowing myself the freedom to invent what I feel most comfortable in is very uplifting. Having reinforced this idea is exactly what I needed to hear! Thank you again, Ana!
Oh, this is so great to hear, Catherine! I bet your unique, comfy, and heartfelt style is the best 🤗 Thank you so much for being here🌼
My dear, this video has made me aware that my own insecurities have restricted me unnecessarily. Thanks for leading to these insights. Take care, dear one.
Oh, I'm so glad the video was helpful, Denise! Sending much love, my friend
I love how you celebrate here what you needed to be comfortable and feel like your authentic self. It is so hot where I live right now and I have had to buy some new items - ironically what has me feeling more comfortable is more sporty in style and I’ve had to overcome some weird feelings about letting go of items that don’t feel right to me anymore. Thanks for the encouragement to listen to what we need ❤️
That purple clutch that you made is beautiful and the shorts look great on you. Your legs are not so pale you should see mine. I don't wear shorts in public. 😊
Albania looks so beautiful. You must be getting lots of happy chemicals from the sun. I wish i could wear those outfits but its so cold here in Australia! So jealous, haha. I'm so glad you've reunited with Brian. Thank you as always for your lovely content, Ana xxx
Oh, I forgot it's winter in Australia now! Hope you're enjoying some cozy ways to stay warm 💚 Thank you so much for being here, my friend!
Vitamin D from sun, very important, especially for vegetarians and vegans.
Glad you' re showing your legs and not suffering from heat. I lived almost the same experience
Oh, Ana, I adore your style! I only wear black dresses of medium length. I love medium and oversized fit. Lots of love from Croatia!
Black dresses make such effortless, chic looks!
Sending love back to Croatia, dear friend 💖
Reframe 'failed' with I learned what didn't work. We are not born with all the knowledge we need. That's the beauty of making mistakes.
I'm loving your summer style! That black dress is so cute, I'd totally wear it ❤️ I have never worn anything made of linen, it's not so common in Brazil (not anymore, at least - my grandma used to say grandfather only wore linen suits). It looks so comfy and has a beautiful texture! Natural fibers are my favorite, too.
ANA. You are amazing. And I loved all the outfits on you...all of them. Well except for the hat! Make yourself a hat the color of your eyes. Blessings from one empath to another.
I am glad you're able to add a few more items to your wardrobe, to keep yourself comfortable. You're so positive, it's a joy to watch your videos. Keep happy x
I'm so glad to hear that, Maggie! 🌸 Thank you so much for watching💖
I love the way you wear scarves in your hair. I’d love to but they always pop off my head! Would love a tutorial! also agree about natural fibres. I Recently understood that about myself too, which was inspired by your earlier video and feel far happier in clothes made of cotton and linen.
Aww, I'll try to show how I do my headwraps in one of the vids! 🤗
I can’t agree more, dear Ana: Wear what you love! Spaciba for this week’s great video. Poka, poka! 🤗
🤗💖🌞
I am currently wearing wide full length linen trousers with a really comfy waistband and a long sleeve linen shirt, everything is loose and baggy! I recently saw a fashion guru saying that you should never wear loose top and bottom at the same time but it is hot here and I won’t get sunburned if I’m covered in loose clothes. I hate wearing “plastic” clothes the just feel sweaty, as though I was wearing a bin bag.
I don't know how you came about yesterday as a suggestion, but you really touched me as being a real person, thank-you
I'm so glad to meet here, Johanne 🌼 Thank you!
I am feeling for you in the heat! I notice how caringly you touch the clothes and how lovingly you talk about them. It made me think of how, when we are minimalists, we are likely to appreciate the things we do buy, even more.
It is not how some people think it, we don't hate things, we are just very conscious of what we bring into our lives.
I have been wanting some shorts. I bought three in a thrift store, and they are waiting for me to alter them to fit me better. But temperature here is only 18-21 C so I am not too motivated to do it right now.
It's such a great point! Not hating things but just appreciating them more.
Oh yes, your weather is not ideal for shorts, too chilly. Hope it will get warmer! 🤗
Love your new clothing pieces ! I prefer things to fit loosely rather than to fitted. I am about comfort. The more you wear your shorts the more color for your legs ! I like lite dresses for warmer weather too. Nice to see you smile again, you look happy 😊 Take care and best wishes you both 🥰
Thank you so much, Glenda 🤗💚
I have a friend who is so pale that she jokes her legs aren't white, they're blue. She wears shorts in summer all the time though, no worries. I love your crocheted purse Ana.
Ana, I love your minimalistic style. Please do an autumn look
Aww, thank you, Ella! I already have this video on my mind and I hope I'll make the vid soon 😊
You could survive Texas summer! It was 108 F here today. 🥵🔥
It's astonishing I really like the same like you and I also dislike the unnatural clothes. ❤️
Your shorts look very cute on you. Half the world is pale just enjoy them and be cool. Also the new linen dress is wonderful.
Hello Ana.
Well, clothes... My grandma and ma were sewing my whole childhood. So did I, when my adult kids were in childhood too.
Nowadays I just buy clothes for it's purpose... And I use green, blue, grey, light brown... Mostly because it's fitting my campervan's colours, AND is the colour of adventure 😁. I think I read to many books about different Expeditions round the world,t in the pass.
When I am in my campervan, there have to be clothes that Dry very fast. So I am mostly sticked to wear gym clothes, and rain/snow covers. I also have found some nice jackets and pants (designed) in the Red Cross' shop...just love them.
Lately I have lightened it up with some light shirts, that I wear instead of jacket when it is hot and windy outside. Wear it opened with a thin gym jersey under.
Today I am sitting under a tarp, surrounded of small Birch trees and giant Night King Candle plants. It is in a small camping spot here in south of Sweden, but it feels like the subburb of the djungle 😁
Best wishes 🤗
What a serene picture of your current surrounding you've presented, dear friend! I can envision it so clearly 😍
I also love your "adventure" palette!
Sending much love to Sweden 💚
@@anagoldberg I didn't told you about my new friends here at the camping spot... Tiny small rabbits, tiny small singing birds - all hiding in bushes next to me, from camping people/kids/dogs etc.
Hmm... Ancie, accidently, drops pieces of wal nuts and peanuts.. oops.. 😁
@@vanilla_vanancie Aww, you're so lucky to encounter those new friends! 😍🐇🐦
Such a lovely video. I also love linen. Your crochet collars and the clutch bag are beautiful.
Hey Ana and Brian! So happy to see your latest communique. Ana, your legs are lovely - and the shadows under your eyes have completely gone now. As I said before, you strongly resemble a revered film star and an equally revered musician, all three of you classic natural beauties with profound core energies. And in the end, that's what matters most, isn't it? Who we are deep inside. When that is allowed to manifest in how you care for and carry your external self, nothing else matters. And what you are, through-in and throughout, dear Ana, is an honest, peace-loving, mindful, love and light-filled woman in a happy present marriage with her like-minded life partner, which makes her glow at her brightest. Choosing and re-evaluating which foods, fibers and clothing pieces work best for you, what to keep and release, and where to travel or rest at any moment should complement all the above. Be comfortable with yourself.
Some things I do with triple-digit heat: sleep during the day (like the animals), dig a cool nest in the soil at the base of a shady tree on a mountaintop (more animal wisdom), nap in a tub of cool water, visualize and affirm my atoms, cells and molecules as peppermint ice cubes, add liquid chlorophyll peppermint concentrate to my bottle/glass of water, add peppermint oil/leaves/liquid castile soap to my bath water, let the peppermint castile soap sit on my skin and hair like a mask for a few minutes before rinsing to produce a prolonged cooling effect. That helps when you have to be awake and working during the day, and also when nights are hot. In addition, my friends from the Middle East enjoy Rooh Afza (a sweet rose-based concentrate, mixed into a beverage) as a counterpoint to the desert heat. So if there's an Arabic-culture store in your area, you can probably find it there and ask what to mix it with. Another refreshing beverage is lassi, made with yogurt (which can be made with plant milks) and fruit. Tabbouleh is a refreshing Mediterranean salad made with mint. And always carry peppermint candies in your pocket/purse. You can pop them into your water, your mouth, your bath, and they're usually easy to access and affordable. Find a swing to sit and sway in with Brian or take turns pushing each other in a swing at a park. Natural, cool fun. Turn out the lights inside when the sun is up and bright. The shade in the room will help your mind and body think it's cooler inside.
That you donated released items to a resale shop that benefits local charities is no surprise. That's who you are, which is why I subscribe to your channel and enjoy your videos.
I would like the machine-less pattern for the crochet clutch. While I do have a machine gifted by my mother and sister when I moved to the countryside, I also enjoy hand sewing. I used to make hand-sewn embellished cross-stitch monogrammed accent pillows as personal gifts, and would like to do something like that again as a business. And I love your Siberian snowflake pattern, color palette and lining. It made my mind start churning with ideas. Bright blessings, all. Bukka bukka!
What a beautiful piece of kindness and wisdom! Thank you so much, dear Belinda 🤗 I love all the tips and will surely try them.
Wishing you a creative, beautiful Sunday ❤️
@@anagoldberg Another refreshing summer dish - gazpacho, which originates from Spain, but the ingredients are easily available everywhere and can be grown on your patio in containers. Basically a raw vegan soup with fresh tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, onion and garlic. It juxtaposes the cooling cucumber against the tiny bit of pepper, which you and Brian can adjust to taste or leave out. Highly recommend.
If you get watermelon, be sure to make a sweet preserve of the rinds. My aunt got loads of compliments on hers, and it's recycling leftovers and something you can use for bartering, which you could also do with the gazpacho ingredients re-imagined with cilantro as salsa. Multi-purposing.
Another food-related thing my full-time truckamping cousin in California does is freelance cooking in homes for families and parties. This way she uses their equipment and utensils, they front the money for groceries, and she makes large batches, so they have a) plenty for the meal, b) some for later, and c) she gets a portion as part of her fee. Just be sure to mask up, take Brian to help and see if they'll let you film it as a recipe and home entertaining decor episode. Bright blessings.
I love your wardrobe selections♥️
I love the clutch Ana. I would love you to do a video on how to make one. It's beautiful. I love how you lined it. I can crochet squares. Never thought of doing that. That made my day! I'm going to give it a try.😘
Hi Barbara! This bag literally consists of 4 granny squares and a band that forms the bottom and the sides. But honestly, you can even do without the band - just squares. I've been also thinking of crocheting a bigger bag of 8 or more squares. There are plenty of great tutorials here on youtube. And I hope one day I'll feel confident enough to film some tutorials myself 😉 💖
I loved it 😍❤️🤗
Love your style and outlook on life.🥰
As I have grown older, I have realized that rayon and other man-made materials are uncomfortable. Unfortunately, items with cute prints are often made of things I cannot wear. I am in total agreement with you on natural, sustainable fabrics like cotton, linen, wool, and bamboo. I never realized the versatility of wool until I bought my first wool t-shirt, and I found I could wear it without roasting!
I can totally relate, Linda! Have rediscovered wool recently and I love it so much.
I’m very pale and I wear shorts all summer long. They are so comfortable!
I like where your channel is going currently. You're combining three of my favorite interests: minimalism, veganism and travel. I was initially attracted to your Channel because of your videos on veganism. Then I saw your videos on other subjects and I could tell you were person of mental and emotional depth. I definitely want to help your channel grow so I will be doing what I can to help you out monetarily. Best wishes for all your future Adventures 👍
Thank you so much for being here supporting, dear friend💚 It means a lot to me, your kind words. Best wishes to you too!
I love all your new wardrobe finds! You are very talented! The crocheted bag is so lovely! Have a great weekend!
You are so creative!!! i love your videos!!!
Thank you so much, Cecilia 😘
Wonderful Ana!!!
I saw a picture of Anna Pavlova with Charlie Chaplin today and immediately thought of you !! Nice resemblance 🤗💐
Aww, you're so kind!🤗
Your crochet works are so lovely!
Great video Ana. Have a good day and weekend
Thanks so much, Liam! You too 🌿
I love your new additions! ❤️ I also absolutely love linnen. I prefer loose fitted shirts and pants in summer. It makes me feel comfortable and relaxed. Nice video 💕
You look amazing Ana!
I have that grey plaid shirt as well and I love it too - so soft and comfortable!
Great advice
Very inspiring video, Ana! Thank you very much! Love from Germany :)
I'm so glad you liked it! Sending love to Germany, my friend 🌸
I love that clutch you made, you are so talented Ana! Great video! 😊
Thank you so much, Rachel! 💚
I love looser clothes. I enjoyed seeing your choices.
I love natural fabrics and drape-y clothes, too. I think you have chosen well and I like hearing why you chose what you did.
So happy to see you more peaceful and relaxed than a few weeks ago. And I like your new clothes. My style of dress is a lot like yours. And charity shops are wonderful to find natural fabrics at prices that are affordable. Good for you!
A woman after my own heart! Natural fibers only, linen, and now some purples sprinkled in! Love it all, especially those plum leggings! 💜
Those shorts are perfection, too!
I love your style!! Thank you for this inspirational video!!
And your skin is absolutely perfect!!!
Thanks so much for watching, Lynette! I'm so glad you enjoyed it 💖
🤗
I love line clothes too 😊
Nice to see you happy and enjoying life again. You look fantastic 😊
Thank you so much, my friend! 🌼
Love your new pieces! A comfortable cotton leggings ist must have for me, but hard to find because I'm very particular about the fit and also I prefer organic cotton. I can't stand synthetics, too, aside from a functional rain jacket. Linen is such a great material but difficult for me because I need to have some stretch in dresses or tops but I love my linen skirt and flowy pants.
I really love your fashion style and your ability to pick up things here and there and make them work together! And I adore that clutch you made!
Thank you so much, Janet! 💚
Ana, your new additions to your wardrobe are wonderful and you look amazing in all your new purchases! I’m so glad that your kept some of your collars and you did a fabulous job on your knit purse. I have also never seen anyone look so beautiful in head wraps. Wow!
A big hug to you and Bryan. Stay safe and well.
Judy in Arizona 🌵
Thank you so much, Judy! Sending love from both of us all the way to Arizona 💖
I love loose fitting clothes, though I don't look as chic in them as you do. I'm not slim like you! But I do love the feeling of comfort and freedom they give. I prefer linen, cotton and rayon and wear denim a lot. I enjoyed seeing your summer wardrobe. :)
💖
Lovely pieces, Ana. I enjoy wearing linen and flannel too. During this particularly cold winter here in Australia, I'm on the lookout for a chunky jumper. Enjoy your new clothes, wishing you and Brian relaxed and peaceful days ahead. 🌞❤💕
A junky jumper is a must for winter! Hope you'll find a lovely one, dear Rowanne 🤗 Sending you warm, cozy vibes 💚
Great video
Your crochet designs are beautiful, you are very talented
🤗🤗🤗
I love linin. I'm fortunate to have several very good second hand shops near me. I have a lot of beautiful linin thanks to them. Your new shift is lovely.
You’re absolutely beautiful inside and out! Your wardrobe looks fantastic on you and is very classy. I also love your videos. It’s interesting to learn about where you are and the updates on your life. Sending best wishes to you and your husband ♥️
Aww, thank you so much, my friend! 🤗💚
Ana what a great video as always! I really enjoy and appreciate the way you talk about clothes and how you value your belongings. Everything is precious and treasured and it feels like you are not taking your possessions for granted and really acknowledge what they bring you on a daily basis. I love how creative you are as well. You truly are inspiring! Take care 💓
Thank you so much for these kindest words, dear Julie! Sending you love 💖
What a huge weather change for you! I love your new pieces of clothing. Thanks for showing and like you I have realized I need to wear natural fabrics too. Synthetics itch and bother me and I just can’t be comfortable with them on.
Ana, you look so adorable in your shorts outfit 😍😍😍
🤗🌸
I really love the colour of those leggings - it is beautiful. Also that almost ice blue if the T-shirt 🥰. Linen is lovely to wear. The bag and the colours are so pretty! Thank you for sharing this.
I'm so glad you eenjoyed the video, my friend! Thank you 💖
Just catching up and watched this video today! I love the additions and happy you are getting cooler by adding them! The head wraps are so cute on you! But I confess that blue dress with the collar is right up my alley 🤣 stay safe and much love to you & Brian.
Thank you, dear Kelli! Sending much love to you too 🤗💚
Goodmorning Ana! Nice video! I hope everything goes well in ur new life. Boho style looks nice on u. Keep going on and make more videos. Have a lovely day! Regards from cyprus🙂
Thanks so much for being here, my friend 💚 You too, enjoy a beautiful day in Cyprus!
You ARE SOOO LOVELY!!! 🥰💜🧡
🤗💚🌼
I just love you new clothes. Everything looks good on you and they don't look second hand at all. Love your videos and so glad you are both together again.
Thank you so much, Sylvia!💚
I love your new items! And I love your hats and scarfs too. 🤩 I have a very minimalist, bland, utilitarian wardrobe. I enjoyed hearing about how you chose your new items and how you are pairing your new items. You are clearly very intentional and I appreciate how much you connect with and value your clothing items. I'm inspired to add some more color to my wardrobe!
And your legs are beautiful! I am also very fair. 😊
🤗💖🌼
Hi Ana!
I looooove your style. Also, I love the way you perceive clothing like something beyond fashion and trends.
😘
Dear Ana, all of your videos are soooo lovely, and thoughtful, I enjoy watching them and listening to the way you are adjusting to your bright new life.
Thanks for your videos , I feel like talking to a long distance friend.
It's so sweet of you to say this, Sara! Thank for being here, my friend 💚
I too love linen in summer: mostly linen dresses. And you look wonderful with all your new things
😘🌼
Dear Ana, I just love how you are telling stories about your new purchases/gifts in your wardrobe. I adore that respectful attitude to every each peace you own. I am on my way to minimise all I own. You are truly a hero in this materialistic world. I send you love and hugs. Thank you for another bright and interesting video 💙
This is so sweet of you, my friend! Thank you so much for being here with me 💚
I love your taste in clothes. I like most of the items you've showed in different videos. Simple, yet stylish.
Thank you, Olga! 🤗
Hello Ana! I love your minimalist-philosophical fashion shows! So inspiring and satisfying, for so many reasons. (Also, I’m sure I caught a glimpse of Дом Книги at the start of the video-which makes me happy and sad at the same time…) (they so often go together.) ❤
Hello, Polly! 💖Yes, it was the famous Zinger building in SPb. You're so right, happiness and sadness go hand in hand...
I have the same preferences.... looser and natural fibers! I don't go with the "fashion", I buy what feels comfortable and what I feel suits me. Your new pieces are lovely and you look so happy... that makes me happy xoxo
Hello, beautiful! It is good to see you adjusting to hot weather :)
I have the hardest time with shorts. They either feel too baggy on me or too tight, fitting my waist well or my hips well but never both. Good luck finding the right summer dress! Nothing beats the feeling of light linen on a hot day when a breeze rolls in ❤️
Hi, Rebecca! Sorry for your struggle with finding good shorts... Hope the perfect ones will find you soon!
Sending love and best weekend wishes 😘
I'm in a similar situation. I moved to another state which is much warmer than where I have been living for the past 9 years. I put some of the warmer clothes in storage for a while since I think I won't need them until winter. But I also discovered the weather here was so hot I felt like I didn't have enough shorts or clothes made of thin material. I ended up buying a few clothes and I will see how they work for me, I might have to buy more things eventually.
Hi Ana, I love the pieces you have added to your wardrobe…your style is very boho hippy which I love…love loose fitting clothing and linen is by far my favourite material to wear. Your legs are perfect! Thanks for the video 😘
Hi Pamela! Oh, we have similar style preferences, it's so cool 😍 Linen is my love forever:) Thank you so much for watching, my friend 💖
Love your clothes! I'm with you on wearing T-shirts and linen. I don't like to show my legs either. Love your videos. Stay safe
100% cotton or wool or bust 👍👍I wear wooly socks 38 in the shade weather.... more flannel and denim shirts in the winter I am addicted to loose denim......just do not prefer synthetics either...wonderful video Ana~~
Hi Ana, looser clothing is definitely best, especially now the hot weather is here. Lovely cotton's and linens billowing around are so much cooler as they allow the air to circulate underneath.
In winter it's big cosy sweaters and chunky cardigans (I really feel the cold!) Leggings are great too and versatile, especially if I want to wear a dress in winter.
I try to buy second hand, if I can and make some of my sweaters too.
Hoping that you are enjoying the summer weather. Take care x
Your clutch bag is beautiful - hope you get to make more and your approach to clothing resonates hugely with me, especially textures as a form of protection. Thanks for sharing and yes you look a lot more relaxed - long may it continue ! X
Thank you so much, Lindy! 🤗
I consider myself a meticulous planner and list-maker, but some things you cannot plan, or prepare yourself for fully. That’s become quite apparent to me with all that’s happened in the world, the last few years especially. I’m a lot more realistic now.
I love your sense of style, it's so effortless!! You've picked clothing pieces and accessories so thoughtfully. Just FIY, my legs haven't seen the sun in YEARS, they are so white, they have a blue tinge hahaha!, Yours are absolutely fine, go ahead and show them off! Keep well, I'm always so excited when I see you've uploaded a new video!
I can totally understand you, Talana! Haha, my legs are bluish, trust me:) I'm just glad I finally set them free to bathe in some sun 😄
Sending you love 💚
I too love linen and cotton. I enjoy a looser fit but also love my blujeans. They are wearing out but I can patch them. For travel leggings and loose lops are wonderful, comfortable and easy to haul around.
My hope is that we can appreciate and feel confident in our skin tone whatever shade it may be.
It's so true...
Ana, your clothes are so free spirit. My choice of style is comfort first, with a loose fit and soft fabrics. Simple, clean, and fresh. You are so talented and beautiful. I think you would make a perfect model for vintage-style clothes. Love you. Paka paka.
Simple, clean and fresh - this is a perfect set of words to describe a wardrobe! Thank you for your kindest words, dear friend 💚 Sending much love
