[@wildswan221]

Tell Lilysilk to make better styles. Many of their clothes have really odd cuts. Their bedding is really great, which is how I found their site.

[@LeahJohnson-k8y]

I love that you talk about how to use and wear COLOR! So many KZbin channel stylists stick to a boring neutral palette.

[@EllenaHue]

thank you so much! I has always been into colorful styling! I think it's a part of my personality ☺

[@LaraSierra28]

As a former fashion writer--yes!--color harmony is so important and I so appreciate the real expertise of a bona fide fashion expert.

[@NiTeFiSe.collie]

I actually like the tension between the cool white and the warm white, especially with the sandwich effect with the warm shoes. I would add a neutral handbag and be happy with my outfit.

[@AndreeaDimaFotograf]

I love this combo too and I wear it a lot especially in spring/summer.

[@OliveraK]

Love it too! I believe it can work if the white is pure.

[@Lisandraaaa]

Same! I love a white top with a linen color pant in the summer and white sandals

[@jros9312]

Same

[@elaineminami5511]

I also wear bright white jeans with a cream or off white sweater. I always get a lot of compliments when I wear this. White sneakers in the summer and light tan brown flats in the fall/winter. I’m in southern CA so I can wear this into the winter with a light brown suede jacket for the evenings.

[@susanswinskey8573]

Be smart. Wear what you love. Life is too short to be concerned what another's preference dictates.

[@OliveraK]

Black can work excellently with other dark colors if they are not dull, meaning tones/ashy. If they are clean and deep, they can add dimension to black.

[@Lindalu0422]

As an artist/art teacher/color theorist, I totally agree with you. Years ago a wonderful teacher taught me to add a touch of cool color into a predominant field of warm color and vice versa for more dynamic coloration and pop. You are doing the same here by adding a touch of cool to your warm white outfit. Bravo!

[@ElviraJuanitaCoetzee]

Ooh I love brown and red together,red is my favourite colour ❤❤❤❤❤

[@dmwl09]

Your videos have been such an inspiration this year! My friends notice my styling changes and I always credit you Ellena!

[@EllenaHue]

thank you so much! I'm so happy to hear that! It's the best compliment to my work ☺

[@MariDorot]

Ellena could you do a video on whether a white (any temperature/cold or warm) monochromatic look suits brunettes? I'm a brunette and have yet to master the courage to wear this combo 😊 I always think that my hair colour looks too "harsh" against the all whites. I am also quite pale. I love all whites on blondes, but I can't seem to make it work for me. Perhaps a video on hair and complexion and whether they matter and what to do to make certain colours work for you. Thanks so much! You are the queen of colour ❤

[@donnamc81]

Accessories brown shoes belt bag to bring the brown from your hair through your outfit hope this helps 🤎

[@donnamc81]

Does not have to be a dark brown tan looks beautiful with all white or cream outfits ❤

[@carolinaschwendener7866]

I love your shows, I would love it if you could show the whole picture, including the shoes you're wearing with each outfit. Thanks 🎉

[@carlsenlifeafter60carlsen11]

Thank you so much for this, I’ve learned a lot. When I bought my vegan leather brown pants, I pulled a red sweater and the girl said oh red with those brown pants?? I said yes that’s a great combination. So thank you for the reinforcement that I was pairing the right combination. I also love the rule about the creams in the white because that can be confusing to some people. Love your videos.😊❤🇺🇸

[@lynnebattaglia-triggs1042]

I’m with the sales girl.

[@zenaidadevera7802]

Ellena you really look good in red 👍

[@myaunteffy1440]

Thanks again, I always learn from you.

[@sonjaapich]

Your look with the beige skirt and the grey wrap cardigan is so so beautiful! I never recognized how important the brightness of the colors could be. Very helpful suggestions, thank you! 👍

[@EllenaHue]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you found my suggestions helpful ☺

[@mbh3004]

Love your advice about matching color value (degree of lightness). Maybe it’s a throwback to the color blocking trend 10ish years ago but I will leave it behind and implement your tip immediately! Also loved the way you used the pops of bright colors with the brown pants and scarf. Honestly, many fashion editors need to take lessons from you because they GUSH over the color pairing “don’ts”especially if worn by a celebrity. Your combos are so much more cohesive and flattering.

[@wrendor9465]

I love these types of videos! Thank you!!

Another good technical explanation & visual demonstration. Love it.👏

[@birgittavaszi2618]

Wonderful video, as always!

[@EllenaHue]

thank you!!! ☺️

[@elenat3274]

Ellena, would you be able to make a video for true spring color type women? Thank you 😊

[@KimberlyPerrotis]

I’ll have to get those LS trousers in black, I have the white and navy already, it was expensive to have them shortened, though - $65 US (I had the cuffs removed, too, they’re visually shortening). Come on Lily Silk, give us petite lengths! Since I spend most of my wardrobe budget on your clothes, it would be much appreciated! The color trend I’m excited about for spring is that very pale pink, I hope I can find nice, natural-fiber pieces in some cool-toned versions of it, to work with my cool coloring. Last time they were around, as “blush”, they were much too peachy (orangey) and didn’t work for me. Plus, I’m often disappointed when I order pieces shown as a very light pink, but they turn out to be bubble-gum, Pepto-Bismol, or Barbie bright pink, yuck. Thanks, Ellena🙂

[@elizabetheyma-davies8584]

Do Lilly silk do a petite range ? Could you ask them to do a petite range ?? Love your videos ♥️

[@GCBookworm]

Clicked on this video because I wore the exact same shades of green and red to go to a large mall for our family’s annual traditional Christmas shopping day just yesterday 😂. I was trying to balance festive & chic (vs. novelty Christmas jumpers etc) & felt like I pulled it off. Camel wide leg trousers, red fitted top tucked in, green longline cardigan, red lightweight pashmina around my neck.

[@sonnamaggs9877]

[@vblackwell3347]

@GCBookworm it REALLY stretches your wardrobe + you can accent w/ complimentary warm colors. Just not near your face.

[@hollyl4425]

I love using brown or other neutrals to ground bright colors!

[@ebufi7957]

I like the combination of the red and green that you chose, it looks like fun. With the brown pants that look serious, I would prefer black. With orange pants would be fun too.

[@SerineSahakyan-xd2nt]

I loved the video. There is so much to learn from you. Many thanks 😊

[@patriciamichoux7260]

I’m fed up of Lilysilk !

[@vblackwell3347]

So glad to know it's NOT just I since Ellena is such a fan. To me, it's just not what it once was.

[@miniteddy5555]

Love this type of vid. Keep it up

[@katknights9033]

Hi Ellena, great video thank you! Could you please tell me what it is about Sharon Horgan's character outfits from season 1 of Bad Sisters is absolute bliss to me? What are the colour combos she is using? Why do these bright sour colours look so good together and how do i recreate it?

[@Burnsey25]

Loved this!

[@tplayspiano]

Thank you- would you consider the red sweater you are wearing to be warm or cool? I can’t tell-it is very pretty.

[@hiumansproject]

[@ISBSb-or4tt]

I love your videos, thanks, you always share great tips! I have tried teal green with touches of a deep dark red (for example a teal dress with a dark red belt) and received many compliments, that combination doesn’t look like Xmas tree. 😊

[@irka2002y]

Congrats! Good for LilySilk!

[@EllenaHue]

Thank you so much!!! ☺️

[@Makeupamateur]

Amazing content! Can you help with how to choose scarves that would add color and elegance to a wardrobe? Thanks ❤

Actually, where is the green trousers from that you are wearing at the beginning (Christas tree). It´s lovely.

[@barbararupert4774]

So informative ‼️‼️

[@annesmith1223]

Is the checkered shirt you put on under the red top black and white or brown and white? You didn't say. And does it matter?

What colour coat should I wear with navy trousers?

[@sharkbros.9278]

Love the video. Question - what would you pair with the vivid pink slacks in the last section?

[@marilyncoburn4936]

Hi, Is lily silk sold in any stores? I have now ordered twice from the site and will probably never wear what I bought. I need to try on clothes to make sure. Getting harder to do!

[@carlsenlifeafter60carlsen11]

Why didn’t you wear what you bought was it too big or too small ,you can send them back. They’ve got a great return policy. Maybe you just don’t know how to put them together with your other wardrobe? I guess it depends on what you bought. I , many many ,things from them and I’ve always been happy. The only thing I had happened was the silk pajama set was a medium and it felt like a small .I sent it back

[@vblackwell3347]

But what happens when you' put down your bag w/ the grey & beige combo? Anyone??

[@ac2055]

I think the biggest factor was the better pairing of similarly undertoned whites. The whites on their own could stand alone, tho could use a focal point w an accessory, hence the scarf. The bag tied more in w the scarf. Minus the bag u lose some complexity, but u still have the scarf. Minus the scarf u lose more complexity, but if u don't like scarves, a necklace w the right visual weight would work. Or just be fine w the whites.

[@nicolajilal6868]

Ellena - what do you think about colour seasons? I am cool toned, (I think a soft summer) but I feel I struggle to find clothes within my palette. Do you think it is too restrictive?

[@vblackwell3347]

@nicolajilal6868 Actually, it'll expand your wardrobe because they're all interchangeable. You can use complimentary warm tones as accents. Just don't wear them near your face.

[@darinakalinova2180]

There is nothing wrong with green and red, look into nature and you are OK. And if someone considers you a Christmas tree. Just ignore them.

[@darinakalinova2180]

Where are the products from Lilysilk made? Asia or US or UK? Because if not there is no reason to charge 200 or even 300 USD for pullover unless most of the costs come from salary for people.

Love your videos 🎉 but just because gray is a “neutral” color does not mean it looks harmonious on everyone. I am a light Spring and light and dark gray look Horrid on me. I clearly have warm undertones in my skin. I don’t wear silver, black or gray and I don’t miss them at all in my wardrobe.

[@Mimi-ni3il]

I think what I am Missing in your color wisdom is at least a nod to color seasons. Black as you shared in this video is not even a very good color for autumn and spring color seasons. Even when it is not near our faces. It’s just. It even in our vocabulary.

[@alexandracummings2852]

Do you have another woman to do voice over. Some of your advice sounds like someone else. I absolutely love your videos, and I often (always) adapt my outfits based on your feedback !😊

[@EllenaHue]

Hi there! Thanks so much for your kind words! I really appreciate it! To clear up any confusion, I want to assure you that all the voiceovers in my videos are done by me. Sometimes, my editing manager might speed up parts of the video to keep it dynamic and engaging, which can alter the sound of my voice a bit. But rest assured, it's all me. I'm sorry to hear that this voice issue didn't sit well with you 😊

[@ET76001]

Lost me at lily silk. Also your looks judgements are so incorrect - warm and cool whites are great together, the back and burgundy vest with black undershirt is much more polished then the contrasting white undershirt which simply upsets the eye with the dark tones and sudden white arms. Grey and light brown/cream really just looks ridiculous together.
