I’m a (soon to be) 70 year old woman who used to be stylish but who lost her way over time. Your video is so helpful, entertaining and thoughtfully put together - reminding me of truths about style which I had completely forgotten! Suitable for women of all ages, no patronising comments, no promotion of expensive unattainable merchandise, just great, great, easy to follow inspirational advice. Superb job! Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙏

I loved this video ❤ I’m 63, retired, lost lots of weight, about to declutter 3 closets of misc. sizes and colors, styles, deciding how to dress now at this point in life. Your tips are fabulous and do make my head feel less cluttered on “what can I wear today”. I love simple casual clothes and always want to look chic. I’ve always tried to really think about color combos, accessories, etc for each outfit. My coworkers always said I was always so put together even out shopping !! Just what I wanted to achieve. Now my fiancé critiques every outfit. Also, loved the ONE POUND RULE . I’m in love with all types of jackets ( I have way too many & can’t stop) other than blazers especially for cold weather and jeans…. Please help on that topic !! Thanks !!! 💕

Hi Monica, I am really interested in the Halara trousers that you are wearing. I love the white ones but I can only see the barrel type. Are those the ones you have? I am very petite, 5ft tall. 7 and a half in weight. You look quite petite so I was wondering about the length of the trousers. Are they very long? And what about sizing I am an 8 are they big in size. I used the description in your links below but I couldn’t access the site because they are asking for my email address and I would rather not give it at this moment in time. To be honest I am quite new to KZbin so any help you could give me would be very much appreciated. I love your other videos regarding charity shops. When you are taking us around the shops I can see the passion in you. I’m just the same . I get really excited about them so you remind me of myself. I’m addicted. Thank you 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

As it is summer here, I am struggling where to hem various pants to make them look best with pants. I have flat sandals, slight heals etc and in winter I have chunky heeled booties as well as a few low/mid height heels and also flats. Such an array. How to decide on hemlines??
