Beginning In Chic? What Every Woman Needs To Know

[@EdelweisSusie]

The best style advice my Aunt gave me over 50 years ago was: before buying anything new, make sure it will go with AT LEAST 5 other items you currently own - how right she was! I know so many women who ‘never have anything to wear’ and have thousands of pounds of credit card debt because they follow fashion trends that only last a season. I have clothes over 40 years old in my wardrobes because as Marie-Anne says, I bought classics in different colours that can be mixed and matched all this time later - and I’m always guessed at being in my early 40’s (I’m 66). Bravo, Marie-Anne. x

[@cynthiajohnston424]

Smart lady ! When growing up in the 50's & 60's , we bought what were then called coordinates / mix 'n match pieces . Then we'd add classic pieces & accessories to dress up or dress down / adapt for the seasons . We even sewed additional pieces to create a custom style , expand our choices & not run into someone wearing the same thing !

[@lawanyaarvind2810]

Your Aunt was a very clever and sensible lady indeed

[@margo3367]

I can’t remember who said it, but the fashion advice I often think of is, buy the whole outfit. I don’t mix and match that often, but I do buy the whole outfit.

[@andreaslitfin6327]

So true. And yet. I had to learn.

[@marianosilova2956]

​@@margo3367I never did so. I is not interesting for me, to use somebody's idea complett. I like to create my own one.

[@MrsCutout206]

Your videos must work miracles. My friend from a French speaking country looked at me the other day and said “You look very chic, like a French woman.” I wasn’t wearing anything new, just somehow put myself together differently. Honestly, I think it may have been having a more confident attitude. So thank you for helping me bring out the French lady hiding inside me. 😊

[@liannebedard5521]

So refreshing to hear your timeless advice, rather than some age by which I am presumed to have aged out of life.

[@lucjagrabowska2726]

Marie Anne, I want to honestly say that every time I start watching your videos, the first thought that comes to my mind is how impeccably beautiful and elegant you are.

[@sparklie962]

Decluttering and organizing my wardrobe might be the best advice I've gotten from Marie-Anne so far. It's completely simplified my life and I actually enjoy putting together my outfit for the day - for the first time in my adult life!

[@EG-qq4gw]

Thank you for the great video. Is exactly what I was looking for. I already subscribed myself to your channel. Actually I am in the phase of decluttering my wardrobe. I have a lot of clothes but I felt like nothing to wear. I was looking for a LOT of videos and I learned that: 1) I was missing many basic clothes e.g. a simple black and white T-shirt without any print or logos. That make it easy to combine 2) missing neutral colors. I was always obsessed to buy color clothes because I thought that white, beige or black are too boring. But at the end it was difficult to put all together as it was a one way combination outfit. Again I was missing the basics. 3) Buy the trends. Trends are nice but some time the trends are too short. Now I am very careful with trends and I only buy one or two pieces to trendy my wardrobe and try to check if this can be used further in the future. A good example; I had a huge bunch of skinny jeans in different colors and fabrics style and they are out of style actually. I storage almost all of them (they were quite expensive) and I concentrated on the straight cut as they are never out of style, and a little bit wide leg but in straight cut. I invested actually a lot of time to try to put all together. 4) buy quality over quantity. In my de cluttering I found many pieces were the fabric was cheap and that doesn’t mean that you payed cheap, but with the time the quality confirmed that you threw money for trends 🙈. Now I am careful and I am buying quality. One point that I also discovered is that accessories are also important to polish your look. A simple necklace or watch or earrings a ring, provides a touch and other accessories like a scarf or clutch/ handbags/purse or sunglasses a belt… that make your outfit look more elevated.❤

[@christinefowler8386]

Newly retired and after watching many of your videos, I have been emboldened to severely pare my wardrobe down - I lived in leggings & had over 20 pairs! Probably 75% of my wardrobe has been removed and I am now working on replacing the remaining items with better choices. Its strange but by diminishing the amount of clothes I had - I have gone from "having nothing to wear" to being able to put outfits together with ease. Thank you for your wonderful advice x

[@MarieAnneLecoeur]

You are so welcome Christine 🤗 Your Style Courage is shining through 🙏

[@candydonnelly7543]

Ann Marie, this exercise is what we all need to start our 2023. The 2 pieces I would add to your capsule wardrobe would be a great fitting denim jacket and a classic cotton, permanent press classic white long sleeve blouse. This may not be an issue in France, but in the USA I often see women especially in the grocery stores in their pajama pants, it is like a national epidemic. I want to say, Go home and get dressed😂😂😂😂

[@mtngrl5859]

While I agree about P.J's and the Yoga pants too, being well dressed has been on the decline, since jeans have become a wardrobe staple. I agree with Christian Dior who proclaimed that jeans were the death of fashion.

I'm 73 it was my Home Economics teacher in my freshmen year of high school. We had to walk with a book on our heads . Thanks to Miss Caywood (RIP) I have good posture.

[@selectiveoutrage6617]

When I recently had physical therapy after an accident, the therapist corrected my posture, saying we can get away with bad posture when young but when older it causes many health problems. Like you, I have to consciously remember to put my chest out and shoulders back. She also said 'tech neck' is epidemic now from people looking down at their phones and laptops. It causes headaches and nerve damage in the neck.

[@susannuccio7637]

I absolutely love this video including the capsule wardrobe advice. The only missing element is a spray of a lovely signature scent. I am a firm believer in a spritz of scent putting a spring in my step and giving me confidence. Not too much and not too strong but enough so that I feel special, feminine and put together.

[@MarieAnneLecoeur]

Yes indeed Susan watch here kzbin.info/www/bejne/fH6qYa2qfcuboLM this must have been one of my very first videos 😃

[@jennyrollins1015]

And it pays off forever

[@baydreamer01]

As for body shape, you make it easy for me since we are the same shape. I'm tall too and can relate to your experiences growing up. Something I have noticed: Sometimes an outfit looks good on me in the mirror but not as good in photos that others have taken of me. I have to take photos of myself from different angles to get the full scope of how an outfit really looks on me. For some reason, it's easier for me to spot what can be improved upon when I see myself in photos vs. the mirror.

[@christianemichelberger8245]

I notice the the same and sometimes think, my mirror is jinxed. :-)

[@mariecurie7491]

At age 69, I believe in starting from the inside. I start every morning with 10 minutes of exercise, and go to yoga class twice a week. I don’t have a car, but go around on a pedal bike. When the weather is warm, I swim in the sea (sometimes with jellyfish, ouch). You are so right about posture; I would add flexibility. And a SMILE will light up your face like no amount of makeup. I am neither a season nor a geometrical shape. But I do use a full length mirror (my landlady on a recent visit suggested that I had no use for it, miaow). Then I take a photo and send it to my partner who lives 1,500 kms from me. He scores me out of 10 😂

I found your video on elevating a current outfit inspiring and fun! The day after watching it, I started with an outfit of a burgundy cashmere sweater and jeans. Normally, I step into a pair of ankle boots and walk out the door, but this time, I traded the boots for some wine-colored suede pumps and added an old silk pocket square that used to be my great-uncle's, and clipped on a pair of gold-hooped earrings. I loved the result!! Even my 14-year old, sports-obsessed daughter noticed the change. I felt good and, as I said before, elevating the outfit was fun because it was a creative act to start the day. I love your videos, Marie-Anne; thank you so much!!

Overall the creams, beige and browns, in tops have been decluttered in my wardrobe. I can still wear those colours and shades in bottoms.

I would add another suggestion. As we age, our teeth become more grey or yellow. Yes, even teetth are either warm or cool. There are kits one can use at home that work pretty well to bleach the teeth back to a more youthful shade and this will definitely make a person look younger and healthier.

[@selectiveoutrage6617]

I am going on vacation & will deal with it when I get back how to pare down my wardrobe. I have no problem finding something to wear is the good news. Hope all is well with you & your husband on the farm. I will try to find those videos!! 💕🥂🚢

I feel your pain. I've tried paring down my clothes and jewelry but like almost everything I own!

I've started to declutter my clothes. Currently victim of too many clothes but nothing to wear. Have started a style journal today
