7 Tips to Always Styling EDGY OUTFITS / Chic Looks / Minimalist Wardrobe / Emily Wheatley

[@janicevin4207]

Excellent video! For financial reasons I thrifted my clothes for years and then went to shop the regular stores. However I found that I had more style, more edge when thrifting so I went back to it! I can really pick clothes that I love, not clothes that are trending at the moment!!!

[@jmjanacek4335]

Yes ma'am!!

[@EmilyWheatley]

Yes, definitely adds more unique flavor. Thanks for sharing!!

[@IvyRoad]

I think thrifting is the thing I miss most during the pandemic. Don't tell my extended family!

[@chrisstaats8406]

Very interesting. I am a mature woman and I like to be unexpectedly fashionable. I haven’t given in to older fashion just because I am over 50. So, I appreciate you take on fashion. Very fresh and applicable to any style. I love high heals and a polished look, yet you idea of contrast is awesome. As was the idea of adding something unexpected like Winnie the Pooh. Keep up your style. You can teach an old dog.

[@sandimcdougall2909]

One of the best videos I’ve ever watched on utube and as a 69yr old, I’ve watched a ton. You have my style down to a tee as a short haired, classic dressing gamine. Bravo! Thank you Emily!

Hi, I am 68 years old, and also love her. 😂

[@minollymino]

After tons of videos I have seen with the typical girlish, sexy whatever boring mainstream stereotype styles, finally found your channel, so glad! Was hard to find someone doing videos for a cool, edgy style, which is totally my jam. Love it! Your capsule wardrobe tips are the best I have ever seen and so easy to put into practice. Looking forward to seeing and learning more from you! :)

[@soccer90tem80]

Yup as a guy her style is 🔥 i just wish she would do a style tips for guys 🙂✌️

[@EmilyWheatley]

@minollymino Thank you so much!! That is so great to hear. So glad people can relate to the style I'm sharing :-)

[@EmilyWheatley]

@soccer90 tem I've done one video on it, but may have to do more in the future. I worked in men fashion as well so have a lot I can share. So we'll see :-)

[@happybaby9218]

What I love about your videos is it helps me understand why some outfits I wear really work and how others feel blah so I can feel my best intentionally instead of accidentally. Thank you!!

[@EmilyWheatley]

That is so great to hear!!

[@suzannemcguinness2502]

Extremely helpful in making intentional purchases with integrity. Thank you!

[@gillwoolley6515]

As an older viewer at 58,Edge has always mattered and even more so now. Sometimes it is best when not planned ahead. I do the sock thing by the way 😃 Great viewing as always, xxxxxx

[@JJJettplane]

Totally agree with you. If we don't keep a bit of edge, we're down the "old lady" rabbit hole very quickly.

[@DP-dr6gi]

I absolutely LOVE your channel. I haven’t seen anyone else that has your point of view. I have been struggling to figure out my personal style. I spent much of my life trying to balance out my love of edge, casual and boho. Dropped the boho lol, I think it was a comfortable nod to my youth. In you, I have finally found someone whose style is close to mine. It is challenging as I am aging to not end up with a “safe” haircut; “safe age appropriate “ clothes. So so agree…hair and shoes set the outfit for me.

[@EmilyWheatley]

Thank you so much DP. I love that you can relate to my style and find some inspiration. So great to hear!!

[@debbiek7193]

Shoes rule. That’s it. Always cute/smart/great profiles. Love every pair I own - take care of them. Good style is TIMELESS

[@heatherframpton9693]

So you are now one of my newest KZbin favorites... 😊❤️💯Thanks, Emily!

[@EmilyWheatley]

Ahhhh thank you so much Heather!

[@kingspunkbubble]

The hair style I wear really does seem to make or break my look. I’m just over three weeks into my last hair cut and it’s lost it’s definition so I’m wearing a cap right now, something I’ve never worn before but I just bought one in plain black and it does the trick to tidy things up until I can get my next cut. One other thing I do to enhance my style relates to my lifestyle choices. I exercise and I eat well and stay hydrated. I also like to maintain positive state of mind too. What’s the point of dressing well if you look unhealthy and miserable?

[@walkingbyfaith5504]

WOW!! LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!! as a WOC, 65+ years of age You Emily speak my language, my style, look, it's just who I am , edgy, definitely classic , LOVED the scene with the high turtle neck sweater AND the short , short hair cut, totally me TYFS Emily, Always BLESSINGS!!! 💯❤💋

[@hopeeure3056]

This video is AHMAZING! I love the novelty portion. I work in sales for a brewery. Branding is important, but I've never been good at the whole jeans and a t-shirt but make it cute situation. This helped a ton with figuring out how to incorporate my company's branding with my own style. Thanks for this wonderful playlist. All of the videos have been incredibly helpful, concise, well curated, and speak so directly to who I am in my style. You're absolutely lovely.

[@craftbird1]

Glad I found you. You have given me permission to wear jeans with smart jackets etc. I am currently re shopping my wardrobe and found all sorts of looks I like. Thanks

[@joyous2theworld]

I have the same hair routine - just embrace where it is that morning.

[@Stevie37]

I really appreciate your view on makeup. I wear minimal makeup for special events, but most of the time I just get my eyebrows tinted and call it good with a bit of lip balm. If I'm having a bad skin day, I might use a tinted moisturizer instead of my regular moisturizer. I feel more confident with visible eyebrows but no makeup than I do in a full face and I think it works with my daily look, which is very casual.

[@Dana-op6ex]

Fun is important, and you definitely embrace FUN! Yay!

[@EmilyWheatley]

Thank you very much!

[@bouchraf.7291]

Hello Emily, Great video, thank you! You are so refreshing! I like your definition of edgyness, the idea of something daring, not a sum up of so called edgy items. One year ago I stopped dyeing my hair, and since then my hair style has become much more important. As my style is quite simple (jeans, jumper, blaser and oxford shoes), with my grey curly hair, just a few extra cm around the ears can turn an edgy 50ish daring woman into an invisible boring lady. At least, that's how I may feel before and after a pixie refresh!

[@EmilyWheatley]

Love your style Bouchra!

[@nuclearhotseat1550]

Agreed! Short gray hair (I'm 72) can be fabulous if it has a great cut and attitude.

[@ievastaleronkaite400]

Wow, that black dress look fabulous on you!!! Even if you don’t have them in your wardrobe and even if you don’t like them to wear, this dress looks just amazing on you ;)

Thank you Leva!! :-)

[@teresapay4862]

I am so glad that I found you! I’m 59 and a teacher, with definite goal of not looking like a teacher 😂. I have the hair already, but struggle with how to combine sophistication, classic style and that edge. I now feel like I have the algorithm for success. Thanks for your positivity and accessibility.

I just found your videos and I think we could totally be bffs!😊 I’ve always tried to describe my style… and what it comes down to is “classy with a bit of rock n roll” . That’s me! I’m a 41 yr old artist, fashion reseller, and unconventional pastors wife, who’s favorite color is always black. I’ve had shaved hair, long hair, and everything in between. Love that fashion brings out so much creativity!

[@RB-os7qw]

I would love to see you collaborate with Alyssa Beltempo! The two of you have the same attitude toward clothing/fashion and the way clothes work to make you be the best you, but you have completely different personal styles and I think you two could come up with some fantastic cross-over content.

[@EmilyWheatley]

Oh yea, that'd be so much fun!

[@pamcamcris]

I loooove Alyssa too!! Both of your styles always have edge but as you definitely drove the point home, the edge is different in that you both carry different vibes with your separate brands of edge. Emily, you bring on more of an "urban chic" vibe while Alyssa has a little more of an "Americana with nods to boho" vibe. But both beautifully thought-out and intentionally put together just the same!!

[@melocoton7]

Shoes make or break an outfit and the vibe you’re going for 💕 agreed on the hair too. I’m growing out a short pixie now because I felt like it limited me a bit. I like masculine clothes, so adding that feminine touch was an everyday struggle that I don’t want to deal with anymore. I’ll leave it to a future shaggy bob to do it for me with less effort🤗

[@EmilyWheatley]

I can definitely relate to that at times, so I get it.

I loved this video! I buzzed off all my hair in the beginning of March, before coming across your channel, and whoa, it really made all my clothes look so different on me! I buzzed it off again last night, I just love the feeling of it and spring/summer are finally coming through here. I agree with all of your tips and if there’s anything I try to do with my wardrobe it’s to only have shoes I really love.

[@EmilyWheatley]

Ahhh I'm so tempted to do the same! I miss my shaved head, just adds so much. Enjoy!!

[@terribanks8633]

I've been binge watching your videos and THIS one! Hair! Finally got it right. For years I was confused about my style. I would see thing's I like, buy them, get them home and never wear them. At the age of 60 (I'm 62) it finally hit me that just because I like it doesn't mean it's for me. Give me jeans, boots or sneakers a chunky shoe, (must have) a hoop, the right top (I have more tops than anything) and I'm happy! You have no idea how much your videos have helped me.

Love this video and the excellent content, per usual. My style revolution began when I bleached my hair and my hairstylist cut it in a really edgy style. After that came an entire revolution with the drop crotch pants, combat boots, sexy boots, unexpected details and dramatic contrasts with tight/loose, loose/tight upper and lower pieces. I love very high end designer stuff mixed with a T-shirt or turtle neck or a tank top. Anything goes!

[@biancas.6283]

Cool tips, thanks!:)

[@IvyRoad]

Your videos are consistently terrific, and this one is no exception. Everything is right on, specific, and incredibly helpful. Much of this was stuff I was already doing, but there were insights that helped me to understand how to up my game. Even when it was something I knew, I didn't necessarily know why it worked for me, or how to make it more consistent. Like figuring out which shoes up my edge game and looking for that quality first, and creating a wardrobe of shoes that consistently make me feel the way I want to feel. (Want to wear a summer dress that is a little more twee than I'm generally comfortable with? Have chunky platform sandals to balance out the twee/edge.) Also, when you introduced the makeup segment, I was thinking: the thing to do is tell people to consider wearing less makeup, a red lip only, sort of thing. And what did you do? You suggested people consider not wearing makeup! I'm in my 60s. I can't go full Patti Smith because I'm not Patti Smith ;0), and in the summer, when not in a white shirt and jeans, I enjoy colour and movement. (In the winter my wardrobe is very much like yours - buttoned up shirts with popped collars are me.) So this video really helped me to understand how to keep echos of Patti in there 'round the seasons. Ok, toooooo long! Really just wanted to say: Thanks!

Hello Terrie, how are you doing

Thrifting 90٪ of my pieces help me find the edge in my personal style. For me the diversity of pieces and eras mixed with the affordability allows me to be more creative and daring. 🖤

[@sanrileroux8013]

For me shoes have the opposite challenge than being on a pedestal (nice little joke 😂)! Most shoes look a bit ugly to me until I pair it with an outfit or a look and then I go “these are really awesome shoes!” So, every pair of shoes I buy is a bit of a leap of faith.
