[@AshleyWashington-en6vq]

Sis, you look particularly GORG today! I'm not sure if it's the makeup, the skin looking super smooth, the slick back bun, the tan sweater on your skin or all of the above but I clicked on the video and immediately was like "Carolyn looks stunning!" (of course you always look great, just saying today stood out lol)

[@RetrocenChic]

I thought the same thing! She's always gorgeous but she's EXTRA today!

[@brittneyk0158]

Your beauty against the artwork/backdrop tho! 🥰😍……The shape in the back of your head, in the artwork, makes it look like you’re wearing a hat! 😊

[@MyGabbayTx]

With the heaviness of the world right now, it’s so nice to take a break and talk about something less serious ❤

[@kearstenw3855]

Your skin is flawless, homeboy did his thing!

[@0967char]

The slick back bun is gorgeous!! 🥰

[@Kttex2]

[@carolpeace9442]

Love your new intro, your backdrop/ artwork, the hair, makeup. Your entire aesthetic today is matching your subject today. I’m loving the new pantone and the complimenting colors. p.s. You must do a GRWM!! The skin…. Need the lip combo. Much love❤

Carolyn! I've been following you for a minute cause you are a joy, a beauty and do uniquely FUNNY!!! Don't you never stop being you! Continue to grow both mentally and spiritually. Did i say, "I enjoy You! " Imma try that Olive and eggplant/purplish shades together, cause I like that military green 💚. I will end this love-fest with this... ain't nobody like you. An influencer with a conscience, a moral compass, and a foundation of faith that you both express. May you ever grow in that unashamedly. Have a fabulous 2025 going forward and beyond!!!

[@leanetta3673]

"You both" meaning you and Carlos. Not you in multiples 😅

[@styled4me31]

Carolyn, I loved this 2025 top trend overview. You did it so well with a full review of style and color trends. 👏🏽Love that personal style should be the guide post for buying and styling our own individual looks. Also, you look marvelous!!! 🌟 Your painting is a stunning backdrop for your video presentation. You are very talented!!! 😎

[@teariajohnson6863]

I got you with that purple eggplant and green mix, I already have the perfect color skirt, such a fun unexpected twist❤

[@specialk0122]

LOve your painting!!!!!

[@donnamc81]

I love the burgundy oxblood aubergine colours we have been seeing a lot mixed with bright pink those Barbie pinks that were huge a while back looks incredible with burgundy and wine turquoise Also looks beautiful with a really saturated turquoise and a saturated bright pink ❤ it also looks good with hermes orange and tumeric yellow too Burgundy looks amazing with a lot of colours and neutrals too

[@theamethyst93]

You are really good at doing thumbnails you get me every single time. That photo is the woman with the puffy skirt and the red puffy top got me to click

[@sarat1625]

Here to co-sign 💜 and 💚. These two colors have been my favorite colors since about third grade. Purple first and then green.

[@kearstenw3855]

It's literally 8° right now in Detroit and snowing. It's freezing!!!! 🥶

[@RamonaAlgarin-27]

I love me a goooooood ass Ox Blood and Crimson. And I love me good emerald green and chartreuse green. Not to confused with chartreuse yellow 😂 BABY! Also, I thought you said you a had titi scarf and looked over and seen tibi 😂 I was like girlllll 😂 I love this painting! It’s a perfect backdrop.

[@medetraj.2309]

You look fabulous, not saying you don’t usually do, but especially in this Video, eyes makeup, you are just glowing ❤

[@jeanellreynolds7291]

The sound is definitely better ❤

[@ITSCAROLYNGRAY]

Thank you ! I will try my best to not let it happen again. I have the mic on but maybe something is wrong with it.

[@kearstenw3855]

Can we talk about your skin though!!!! Skin is skinning!!!!😊😊😊

[@atravis1]

Perfect sound! 👩🏾‍🍳 💋

[@ITSCAROLYNGRAY]

Ok good! Phew! Thank you!

[@amirahcle1680]

Great video

[@EverythingQueen]

I LOVE my wide legged jeans but I know skinny/straight legged jeans will always have a place in my wardrobe. I got rid of the low quality ones but kept the nicer ones when baggier jeans became popular. I'm a cargo girl for sure!!!

[@VioletFem]

15:00 I haven’t gotten rid of all my jeans. I still have one pair that I occasionally wear when it is very rainy or ver cold. I find skinny jeans are more practical to wear in the heavy rain because they can be tucked into a pair of boots. I also like the slim silhouette. What you’re describing - the skinny jeans with a bit of a flare at the hem - sounds like straight leg. A straight leg pair of jeans might be a nice middle ground for someone who wants to wear a slim silhouette that isn’t as tight as a pair of skinny jeans

[@Wernerwoman1]

Hey! I'm into clogs. I recently purchased a pair (not having any idea they would be trending this year). I'm also a leather wearing in the Summer kinda gal 🤭. I'm here for the peep toe! I have a older Gucci peep toe heel that I never stopped rocking. I recently purchased a flat peeptoe shoe, and I'm still figuring out how I feel about it. 🍪💕

[@Allthingscheri]

Thanks for the 411. I like the direction personal style and fashion is going. You can find me in black - alll the time too. I gotta get that wish list, buy and no buy list down. I donated so many clothes regardless of the cost and now I feel like I let go of things too easily and I need to stop this. Vent. And my justification is I’m blessing someone else but it’s kinda wasteful. I wanted some Chanel dad sandals and I think I missed the boat on em bc the ones are out now I don’t care for them like the old ones.

[@RetrocenChic]

Not the crevice of your knee back! The scream I scrumpt! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@perfectlycoiffed05]

Wide legs 4 Life! 😂. ..and large bags! I’m totally feeling chartreuse and eggplant!

[@fromnishasview]

I can't give up my platform shoes...they give me height😂. But I am excited about the color combos!!!

[@kearstenw3855]

"toe cleavage" 😂😂😂😂😂 You crack me up!

[@donnamc81]

When I saw that" barn jackets" were trending I laughed wax jackets and yes I am English I have lived here in the countryside my whole life wax jackets are what your dad and grandad wore to walk the dog do the garden and allotment in when it was cold and raining and they keep showing photos of members of the royal family wearing them ask yourself what they were doing at the time of the photo to be wearing their wax jackets they are not wearing them for fashion they are wearing them to work outside and stay warm and dry that's it 😂❤

[@callmegeri]

I need a cigarette straight “skinny” lol

[@ShabazzaHigiro]

This MAKEUP!

[@ritacoco8775]

Sundarbay owner Charlotte had a baby I think last year or so, that maybe why 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@Jalaunda365]

As a Gen X, I say "Long Live the skinny jean"😂

[@AliciaEnikanoselu-qg3jw]

🫶🏾🫶🏾💪🏾🎯🗯️😄

[@cineph1e]

Ruslan Baginsky is pronounced "Rue-Slan- Bag-Een-Ski". At least that's the pronounciation I've heard the most. Could be wrong. Maybe check with the brand, could be a good way to introduce yourself too 😉

[@karlaschmid8757]

You could be such a great actor, second career?

[@benitacarnes5241]

Like the pink. But I really don’t follow the trends. I wear what I like, classic pieces and color.

[@ITSCAROLYNGRAY]

Good for you! To each their own but thank you for watching and supporting the video.

[@A5jer]

Can we stop listening to Gen Z opinions, all it is our lived experiences recycled and repackaged!!! I literally wore my skinny jeans this, its boots season- what them feel like😂😂

[@NTNGALE10]

Leather and suede worn during a Houston summer are not compatible with life.

[@leilariley936]

Oh well!!!I gave my opinion,and just like that ;IT'S DELETED!!!If I was brash I sincerely apologize....it wasn't aimed at you :DESIGNERS are being repetitive ,and as such boring! I guess I HAD NO BUSINESS offering my opinions !!
