5 Style Mistakes I ACTUALLY Regret (STYLE MASTERY)

[@bethanyleonardo]

Join my 40+ lesson course, Master the Art of Personal Style™ at www.dearlybethany.com. Much love to you all!

[@mijjy4321]

Rule #4 reminds me of a favorite Picasso quote that I share with my poetry students: “Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist”

[@bethanyleonardo]

Love this!

[@Sanikaaaaaaaaa]

That's amazing !

[@ziondaughter5331]

eey yeah

[@christiechisholm5823]

It's so rare to find fashion videos that really delve into more philosophical approaches to style. I love the tip about irony-never thought of it in that way before-and the whole video is so on point. Thank you!

[@bethanyleonardo]

Love this, Christie! Bringing a deeper value to you all on these topics just brings so much more meaning to me. 💛

[@Lucine.Hairapetian]

Indeed, dear Christie, Dearly Bethany truly teaches style and she does it from a philosophical point a view. I appreciate the manner in which she provides information. There is also another youtuber, Anna Yakimenko who is a Russian professional stylist based in Milan who also teaches style and not fashion. Her concept is also about implementing style not only to clothes, but to our daily life in general, eg. to home interior/exterior, eating,... According to her, a woman with style is the one who is harmoniously stylish in every aspect of her life. You can watch her videos by putting on the Subtitles option in English language, as she speaks in Russian. She is very methodical in her teachings and very agreeable as a person to watch/listen to.

Ooh the color one is so important yet so frustrating. The last few years of fashion have been great with warm tones like mustard appearing everywhere. Now I see many stores turning to pastels which do absolutely nothing for me 😞

[@bethanyleonardo]

Spring will be over soon and the warm colors will return. 🤗

[@daniellegonsalves3745]

Yesss. My bank account has learned the hard way that no matter how much I love pastels, they will just never look good on my olive skin

[@sarastewart2633]

I wish brands would consider both warm and cool skin tones when doing their collections instead of focusing on just one each season. It is Autumn (fall) in the southern hemisphere right now and pastels are still everywhere. They don't do anything for me either.

To be honest, I came across your videos by complete chance. I would not even consider myself particularly fashionable. However, I'm very impressed by your clarity of thought, your dedication to your wardrobe and the thoughtfulness and at the same time effortlessness of your outfits. I find your whole approach very interesting and inspiring! So thanks a lot for making these videos!

I like the tip of buying 1 shirt versus 3 cheaper shirts.

[@faye2313]

I'm a broke lil fashionista. 98% of my clothes are from thrift stores. I can never afford anything over 10 dollars or 20 dollars. With a small budget, I really pick my clothes carefully. Color pallete wise, budget, quantity, and even quality. There are good days and bad. Sometimes I'd buy something that are too dressy or hard to mismatch. I'll just find myself wearing the same top and bottom cause only both of them work together. Your videos are really helpful to me. I always follow your tips. I religiously take note of your advices to heart. Especially the warm undertone advices. Life changer

[@justynasitarczyk7632]

Brilliant video😍 I found your chanell few weeks ago through pinterest and already watched almost all of your videos😊 loved them all so much because I'm also petite and struggle so much to find right fit for me but thanks to your detailed descriptions I started to realise how much I lost my self in this search for right size and how much I fell into quick fashion choices. Your style is a piece of art and I can't wait to see more❤

[@stupor_mundi]

Thank you, this is really useful 💖 especially right now that I'm doing a major declutter of my closet and I'm feeling overwhelmed by the large amount of stuff I have vs the small amount that I actually reach for and and wear daily. I held on to many things that I never felt confident walking out the door with (although I really did love the pieces) and I see now it was the undertone. I also need to downsize and I love the idea of a no-fail core wardrobe and the basic colour palette. I'll try to use your criteria to think of my current task as "shopping" my own wardrobe instead of a "declutter" and if I feel the piece I'm holding is not something I would have bought today, it will be much easier to discard. Even if it's just clothes, I feel when I streamline that part of getting ready (the wardrobe) it will have a huge impact on how I begin my day.

[@bethanyleonardo]

Love this! Best wishes as you start your journey, friend 🤗💛

"You can look in your closet and find, reinvent new ways to wear things." That's what I'm currently doing! Some outfits don't match but some do and people stare at me for that look but I know that I should trust in my self and my style more, and I'm on the path of overcoming my self so it helps ^~^

[@alikat8221]

This is such a lovely video; I’m so happy you’re back! I really struggle with brand loyalty (and now have an almost exclusively Dôen/Christy Dawn wardrobe 🤦🏻‍♀️). I think it may be time to branch out... which is so hard, especially when the brands you love have really mastered the art of FOMO marketing. If you’re looking for new brands, I’ve recently fallen for Oak Meadow, L’Envers, and Silversaga 🥰

That warm/cool tone actually helped me figure out the colors! I just have to figure out my color tone 😅 I'm trying to sum up and define my style at my age and lifestyle of casual/semi office looks and feminine, dressy weekends 😉

[@Abby-Brock]

The color palette one really gets me. It is so hard to stick to a color palette with so many fun colors and prints out there

[@bethanyleonardo]

I hear your, Abby! Like I said, if you love color, stick to a simple color palette for your core signature pieces and experiment with colors on a few seasonal pieces each season. You then get the best of both worlds while building a core timeless style with great long lasting and versatile pieces.

[@KateBenz]

I love the idea of supporting up + coming designers... who are you loving these days and also, what search tips do you have for finding some? I have a hard time wading through the masses on Instagram, Pinterest, etc. Thank you! xo

Thanks Kate! I love the idea of making a video for this and my techniques for finding new brands. A few of my favorite smaller brands off the top of my head are Ozma, Jesse Kamm, Rachel Pally, Laude The Label, Nisolo Shoes, Tradlands, Mille, Seek Shelter, Janessa Leone, Gigi Pip, Pamela Card Jewelry, Merit, Von Holzhausen. 🤗

[@pavla2055]

Long before I could afford better fabrics I learned that dressing in colours that are right for my complexion to be far more expensive looking than any pricey fashions in unflattering shades . Often by being closed minded to new things on every front leaves many good things unexperienced in life . Modern classics are my style but I do occasionally buy something of another style sometimes b/c I liked something on someone else . The item is usually soon returned but I was willing to try it .

[@MayraLee]

When redoing your wardrobe how many pieces should you have in your wardrobe? For example how many pairs of shoes? How many pants? How intentional are you with it? Do you follow like the capsule wardrobe? I’m asking because I know a lot of people tend to overwhelm themselves with so much clothes and end up not being able to match them .
