8 Things Well Dressed Women Don't Spend their Money on

[@grazsts3005]

I would add: well dressed women don't spend money on her fantasy life. She knows how to dress for the life she has. A lesson that I learned recently, in a very expensive way.

I really don’t care what people think of my dress sense. Trying to live up to other people ideals is what the problems are today.

Part of the problem with shoes is that the designers don’t make wide shoes! Not all women have narrow feet.

[@thesushifiend]

[@JLR1957]

They also don't make shoes for narrow feet. I am AA width and really struggle to find shoes!

[@mahoganybrown9366]

@@JLR1957 This! At least women with wide feet are sometimes catered to. I'm a AAA, I'm either buying grandma shoes for proper fit, or sloshing around in something entirely too wide!

My problem is the opposite, I have very narrow long feet and trying to get shoes that fit is really difficult.

High heels and handbags were made for men not women. Most of your celebrities are inverted so men are women and women are men. The men that are women still have straight accross clavicles for the handbag to hang off (they fall off natural womens shoulders). Men have very long arms so to hide men to women celebs they wear high heels so it is not so obvious they are not women. Look up Angel Price on youtube. The man starts to come out in their forties, look at Brooke Shields, Nicole Kidman, Angelina Jolie, Kate Midleton, etc

My mother taught me a lot about clothes particularly colours, fabrics and cuts. From her I resent to ask myself a question in a fitting room “Does this item improve my look/ appearance, and, if so, exactly how and why. It’s definitely saved me from making mistakes.

[@figmo397]

I've been instinctively doing those practices for years! I grew up with a mother who was into trends and polyester, whereas my classmates mostly wore natural, high-quality fabrics. As soon as I moved away, I was able to dress myself in stuff that wasn't polyester or "trend of the year." I remember begging my mother to spend a whopping $10 on plain black and navy skirts in high school that lasted me 20 years. For a while Mom still liked buying clothes for me after I'd moved away. I'd let her as long as we were getting something I'd actually want to wear. Each trip she'd pick what I called "trendy item of the year" that she'd try to push on me, no matter how bad it looked on me. Often the way the item looked saved me from having to have it in my suitcase. Sometimes it was a "normal" item but in a weird color, such as the time she was pushing me to get neon pink pumps because she wanted me to wear neon pink to my cousin's wedding (I didn't). If I buy something "cheap," it's only "cheap" in the cost department, such as the time I found Levis on clearance for $1.85/pair. I bought two pairs in size 10 even though they were small at the time because a) I wanted incentive to lose weight and b) I couldn't resist that kind of a bargain. In that case I DID lose the weight. In fact, those jeans are now BIG on me! 🙂 I also like to keep one or two items in my wardrobe that aren't in my color palate. I call those "sick day clothes." If I want a day off, all I have to do is don a mustard yellow, peach, or olive green top (I'm a Summer). I had one boss insist on my taking the afternoon off and going home because the top made me look THAT sick! (Truth be told, I was actually just low on clean laundry that day....) OTOH, I refuse to buy shoes that don't fit. I think it's because my uncle was a VP at a major shoe company. When you grow up getting lectured on fit, you stick to it.

[@kaunas88]

One mistake that I occasionally used to commit was to buy something because it was on sale and "a good buy", but in the end it was a false economy because I hardly ever wore it, while a more expensive and better item I wore a lot of times, so in the end based on the number of wearings it was a lot cheaper and better value.

[@kauffrau6764]

I agree with the importance of color. Wearing blue in any shade suits me and makes me feel happy.

[@laurapearce9927]

If you love neons, you can always wear them as accesories or 'accents'. You could wear black or white or navy, for instance, as the main base colour and wear a top in the neon as a 'splash '. You could also wear a neon colour belt or maybe a pair of shoes / sandals with a bag. Just keep the neon subtle and it can look chic.

[@Seraphine07F]

I adhere to certain, very important rules - No Animal Print (& espc No Leopard Print, No Neon, No Pinstripes, No Houndstooth Checks No large patterns etc (& NO All black outfits; I'm ultra pale with long, wavy deep copper hair & green eyes) - but after 20, it's a good idea altogether, whatever the fashion pack say. & with these rules you can save yourself a LOT of problems & embarrassment) espc re "photographs from a couple of/a few years ago"🙏💜🇬🇧💜

I’m a shameless shoe person. I love all my shoes!!! Always have. I have finally listed some on my Poshmark that I no longer wear and haven’t for awhile due to lifestyle changes (not as much going out and dancing these past few years) but overall I really enjoy having a large variety of shoes to pick from. Plus not wearing out the same pairs all the time they actually last me a long long time. I live where there’s 4 seasons so it makes sense to me. I do need more storage for them but I feel like I always need more storage 😂 for everything anyways.

[@MadameRobinson]

I had to have my big toe joint replaced. My foot is now more comfortable in 1/2 size larger. I had many high heels and platforms and wore them almost every day to work. They held memories. I took pictures of each pair for the memories. And I bought new shoes. My surgery was during Covid so I bought a lot of things 75% off.

[@Joflowers4]

I am the same!! 😃I go through my clothes every season (and brought my kids up to do the same). I recently went through my shoes and also have some for sale at Poshmark (and have sold a few pairs). I absolutely love my shoes and boots and will not part with them. I have good quality leather shoes and do not want to let them go. We are selling our house and downsizing but in our new home, I told my husband I want a huge closet for my numerous blazers and shoes.

I am very pleased to say I actually do 99% of this. However, as I'm on a limited budget, certain fabrics aren't accessible to me. I do try thrift stories, and have very occasionally been lucky, but generally speaking it's hard to stretch my budget on every day wear. However, I do keep a few very well made and well fit suits and shirts for special occasions which call for them. I'd love if anyone has any advice for fabric that falls somewhere between lesser and more expensive; a nice middle ground would likely be doable for me (and I suspect other people, as well).

[@sparklie962]

Oh haha, yes, have I ever bought aspirational pieces to "slim into." The last go round I put the dresses away, forgot about them, meanwhile changed my diet and lifestyle, and when I found them again they were too big. Never wore them once, and I wound up selling them for peanuts at the consignment shop.

[@chriss7552]

Yay, awesome video. I gained 20 lbs since the pandemic most of my wardrobe don't fit me anymore. Bummer. I usually buy clothes that's not on trend , my reason is that I can wear them after some fashion dies down. I have a couple of blazers and coats that I have worn for many years.

[@LisaSoulLevelHealing]

So true. Just take some time to learn what styles highlight your body type the best! Then just buy different colors and materials of the same thing. I also don't have enough space in my closet to have anything I don't absolutely love, so no waiting until it fits- return to the stores.

[@chanchan5349]

I do have a couple sizes in my closet. I carried extra weight after pregnancy that I eventually lost, needed a larger size due to surgeries, and like most gained some weight during the pandemic. So I keep some pieces that are larger-mostly I stay within a certain size but I also have seen clothing that doesn’t follow sizing for women lately.

[@bethdavis7812]

You nailed it, classic clothes are always in style, well tailored to fit and in colors that compliment you.

[@Bahbahlatje]

I have a petite hour glass figure. When I was young, I had no idea how to dress my figure and often wore styles meant for other figure types that made me look frumpy and awkward. As I gained more experience, I am able to spot what works and what to leave on the rack. I invest in tailoring pieces that have an overall silhouette that works for me. I have quite a collection of designer shoes - that I buy mostly on deep sale or on consignment. I keep them organized by color and those that have patterns. If I find I'm not wearing some shoes, I sell them on consignment. My shoes are very comfortable because they are well constructed so I can spend a whole day in my heels and not have sore feet at the end of the day. My philosophy is to wear solids and add pattern or a splash of color some where - blouse, shoes, belt, scarf, jewelry - for interest.

[@marthahawkinson-michau9611]

In defense of polyester, it can be made into quite nice fabric and put into really well constructed garments. The bad reputation comes from badly made cheap clothing. Wool, silk, and linen are only rarely used in cheap clothing and are almost always made into nicely made pieces. Cotton on the other hand, is basically the polyester of natural fiber. It can certainly be used for very nice things, and does make a nice fiber to wear. It can also be made very badly, and the pieces made from bad cotton will fall apart just as quickly as badly made polyester clothing. Worse, the fabric itself will fall apart if it’s made from the wrong type of cotton.

Some of my best fashion purchases have been 'aspiration' pieces which will fit perfectly only after I drop the extra weight......HONESTLY. They--for me--are a wonderful MOTIVATION to resume/maintain a Fitness Lifestyle. ****BUT**** I am aware of my particular body type, which parts of my body hold extra pounds---i.e.----where the weight will come off. Some of us hold weight in upper body; some lower body,....you get the idea. And I am...as this video teaches...also aware of which cuts/styles, colors, etc. suit my particular body type. So, while I must remain realistic and stay within those guidelines when buying an article that doesn't fit quite yet......taking the plunge CAN serve as a powerful catalyst for getting into shape.....especially when I have it hanging up in plain sight as a reminder. LOL

[@martasampaio3043]

Excellent video 👏 👏 Thank you, you have been such a precious help. I have been working on (re)defining and simplifying my style after becoming a mum and every single of your videos is worth it’s weight in gold to me 😊 I have been guilty of all those mistakes in the past but I must say that some brands positioned at a high hand do sell clothes made of rather poor materials and finishes. I have had to part with two of my beloved coats from a very well known British brand because I could not cope anymore with their rubbish zips. I guess that’s me taught that high price does not necessarily mean high quality 😢

[@Gemmawhattowear]

Such a shame about your coats, very disappointing

Well-dressed women don't aim for the moon and they are not envious. They don't go by "If I was rich I could dress well", "If I was slim / tall / blonde etc. I could dress well". Everybody has their good points, so make the best of them, and money won't buy you good taste.

Love your channel. It gets right to the point with lots of great info! I love watching style and fashion vids, and see so many awesome ways to wear a blazer. I have several. They look sharp and sophisticated, but I don't end up wearing them. Not the fitted shorter, not the long, not the mid, not the wool gabardine, not the wool knit. I realized that as much as I love them they don't work with my job or aesthetic. I'm 6 ft tall with a rectangle shape--maybe this has something to do with it-- and have finally realized or admitted ( LOL ) at 60 yrs old that I feel best in knits and more feminine styles. Not frilly though. But I am certain to always get sucked in to the chic look of a blazer.

[@breezybird403]

My blazers are stiff and uncomfortable. However, I found a stretch denim one, which works for me. I will gladly buy another blazer, but only if there is some knit or give to it!

Solid advice, although classic would not define my style which tends to the more edgy/romantic/gusts-to-boho. That said, you've pushed me over the edge of indecision over a well-fitting navy Smythe Duchess blazer which I was thinking was too conservative for me. (I have others in different plaids and colours.) I think I'll push the button on it because I know that, ultimately, it will last although I might not wear it that often at this point in my life. As for a solid camel blazer, I just can't. Thanks as always.

I have a dismal success rate with shoes, I keep and wear only about a third of what I buy. I only buy high-quality, genuine leather, wide-toe box, generously-sized, styles and choose and break them in as carefully as I can, but it seems like there are always problems once I try walking in them for more than a few minutes. Something ends up pinching or rubbing somewhere, often only in one shoe where there might be a slight thickening of a strap, stitching flaw, etc. High heels (3 inches or more) and pointed toes I never could even consider. My feet are Average, or C width, but these pointed-toe styles shoes are only half the width of my toes! Shoe manufacturers make them super-narrow to save money on the leather and for no other reason, most barely qualify as A width, they are more like a AA or AAA and nowhere near the B width they claim. It’s not, as they claim, to “fit more women” or “look more elegant”, it’s all about maximizing their profits.

Oh, I just saw the link for the sweater.

[@deeterr1227]

Good for you love. You've ticked all the boxes correctly. I do not own neon or bright colors, it's clownish. In my orb we don't wear such things. While I do have extensive shoes, I don't buy them anymore because I now have shoes for every occasion on the planet, If I should buy a new pair of heels I discard my oldest pair in that category.. I do wear prints BUT, if the shirt is printed I wear solid color slacks. If my slacks are printed (l like lily pulitzer patterns) I wear a solid color shirt. I'm very conservative with my makeup and jewelry in the daytime. But if I'm going out to dinner or a fundraiser I will put on a little bit more. At upscale restaurants my hair is always in an up fashion. If friend's and I are just grabbing a light lunch bite, I'll wear it down or in a low ponytail with a beautiful ribbon or scarf around my ponytail. We are firm believers of dressing appropriate for the occasion. Whatever your life's occasions are assess them and dress for them appropriately. No stilettos while lounging by the pool 😁

[@kathieb6443]

I have bought things that I needed to slim down to wear. Problem is, that although I did slim down, it doesn't look good anyway. If I had weighed 10lbs less when I tried it on, I wouldn't have bought it. Doubly frustrating.

[@Karmaofiis]

What I usually did I bought things that were bigger, thinking I can wear it when I gain weight, so I had too many oversized clothes that never fit me.

[@verreal]

I have no objection to any of your points, but I really hate the clothes displayed behind you, especially double breasted brass buttons. There's got to be something less boring that's classic. Also, the clip of the denim jacket under a proper overcoat illustrates why they are useless. Denim jackets are not warm enough when it's cold, and not cool enough when it's hot, just useless.

I have a green dress much the same colour as Catherine's and I think it's more of a bright apple than a neon. It's one of the few non- natural fabric garments I have.

When you wear a size 3 woman's shoe (yes, size 3) it's almost impossible to find comfortable shoes outside the kid's department and they're neither comfortable for adult feet nor do they last.

@@denisem9407 that’s tough. I’m a size 4 US and it’s really hard to find adult heels. I really don’t have a problem with casual shoes. I where adidas, Uggs, Birkenstocks, Doc Martens, Teva and even my Hunter Rain Boots all in children’s sizes. But dress shoes are hard to find.

I appreciate the work done here advising, but I have a hard time with the image of the denim jacket under the camel coat. The denim jacket in its basic form is as hideous as a worker boot. I expected from a fashion expert an image of a styled denim jacket and now I expect a full video on different styles of denim jackets. Please, i cannot unsee what I saw and it's bad.

I’m an applepear. What style suits me?

I am a petite woman with a large chest. Stuck with what my boobs fit into. No button-up blouses, blazers, jackets, dresses. The shapeless, baby-doll silhouette that has predominated the last two decades is about as unflattering a look as can be imagined for my body type. To have anything besides oversized cotton shirts in my repertoire, I’d need serious tailoring. So…back to money. And time. And a good tailor, if you can find one. 🤷🏻‍♀️

80% of my wardrobe is clothes I’m going to fit into🤦‍♀️

Keep going. I just fit into a pant I wore 5 years ago. So happy about it.

Please, all this well dressed community, don't shove away polyester and other synthetics. They are NECESSARY for workout clothing, for hiking, skiing and a ton of other activities that require us to stay dry. And a lot of knitted fabrics, like thicker bodycon dresses or turtlenecks are also amazing with a blend of a synthetic polymer

I hate and never wear oversized whatever. BUT you can't say about them it's a trend. Because trend generally don't last almost over 10 years like this one. Even if I don't do it I wish it will go soon and forever. :)

I respectively disagree. I know rich people that buy cheap clothes. I think Neon is a classic color. I love color. So called classic pieces are almost unaffordable and I am allergic to wool. I guess what I'm saying is it's much harder to shop online and in person. I do agree with if it does not fit, send it back promptly. I agree on the shoes. Thanks for sharing some good ideas.

Greetings from Cologne/Germany. . Your videos are great. The German economy does not manage to provide appropriate wardrobes from size 46. Still, I love your shows. If Germany wakes up at some point, I will strike mercilessly :-)
