BORED with your style? Here's what I do when my wardrobe makes me yawn....

[@atomiclisa]

A friend asked me to go in her closet and put together outfits for her. Then she did the same for me. It was fun and interesting to see what we'd come up with and it really changed our perspectives.

[@deblovejoy1708]

1. New to your channel. Fun 2. I also bought the red adidas / so practical 3. The white skirt restyled! 💜 4. I love shopping my closet and restyling 5. 72 years old ‼️ 6. Love your ideas

[@KristenCainStyle]

Welcome!! 🥰

[@traceygubbins887]

This video was awesome. I am 60 and have recently developed a sneaker addiction and was wondering if I am too old to want to wear sneakers all the time when I am not at work. You gave me the confidence to continue wearing all the sneakers!

[@arelidelong1188]

Hi, in my opinion, I believe you are never too old to wear something that makes you happy. I'm also in my 60s, and I enjoy wearing sneakers, too. Go for it, and enjoy your life. Blessings!❤

[@KristenCainStyle]

Woohoo! Wear them with a smile!

[@veronicacarmody115]

I’m 65 and sneakers are definitely worth the investment. I love them!

[@pattyconnelly8823]

Wow! I’ve been searching high and low for a video like this for months. Thank you so much for creating contest that’s useful and enjoyable. 🙏🏻

[@KristenCainStyle]

Thank you so much! I'm so happy it was helpful. 🧡

[@bethwichman1860]

Wow. What a great video. So much info to deal with wardrobe boredom. And you are frugal .. . Not pushing us to spend money on clothes when there is no need.

[@KristenCainStyle]

Thanks for your support!

[@joanne6408]

I recently lost a fair amount of weight and have had to replace most of my wardrobe. Savers and goodwill have been lifesavers, and I’ve been very lucky to find some real gems there. I’ve purchased good brands, natural fibers, and often brand new items. I thought I would thrift while my size keeps changing, but now I’m sure I’ll keep it up after I reach my goal weight. Great video.

[@nancychestnut8928]

Good for you! Congratulations

[@courtneysands6646]

Savers is great. We don't have one where I live now. Goodwill is so expensive but sometimes they have great items.

[@lynnh9140]

Wow, your video popped up on my KZbin feed and I gave you a 👍 after just 5 minutes in. I'm retired and 62 and feel like you may be the stylist and wardrobe guru I've been looking for. I'm so tired of influencers who tell you to shop your closet meanwhile providing you links to belts that cost $110 and boots that cost $150. I'm also a bargain shopper and thrifter and like getting items in my closet for a good price. The problem is because I get it for a good price I tend to overpurchase. I plan to be watching more of your videos to figure out how to streamline my closet better. Unfortunately I do get reeled in by other influencers online showing their hauls which keads to impulse shopping. Cant wait to watch more.

[@KristenCainStyle]

Welcome! Thank you for your kind words and for watching!

[@ruthkirner2191]

Big thank you. You opened my eyes to so many possibilities. I’m 80 and needing to refined myself in my love of clothes. I’m a kindred spirit to your natural look- comfy, sporty, casual but not sloppy! Loved this video- my first one. I’ll be following in the future. Excited to find you. Ruth K PS. Eugene, Oregon and boys jeans still fit my narrow hips, and I’m still very active.

[@KristenCainStyle]

Thank you, Ruth! Welcome!

[@valeriecoopet9897]

My best find is a $159 faux suede, black moto jacket from Chicos. I got it on sale for $39. I love it with my black, grey and regular denim. It also looks great with my dress pants. I just love what it does to my wardrobe. I also found a pair of cheaper red boots. Fun and pretty comfy. Can’t walk the dog in them, but can wear them out and about for hours.

[@gaildean9223]

just recently came across your channel and it has seriously changed my life. I have been stuck in a style gone crazy lately. I am going to be 74 soon and I have been thrifting alot of careless choices. I have a goal now and have gone back to basics with a few fun pieces. Love, love Quince! Thank you so much, life is not over yet! HaHa

[@TinaLowe-p7s]

Great video. Just found you on KZbin and so glad I did. Lots of useful info and I too have fallen madly in love with Quince cashmere. Have already purchased several pieces. I am 68 and retired and decided my style and closet need an overhaul. I also want to move closer to creating a capsule wardrobe in the process. Buy better and buy less hence the cashmere. Looking forward to watching many more of your videos and perhaps taking one of your style classes.

[@roseoconnor5938]

Love, love, love all your choices to create a wardrobe that makes you happy. I'm off now to re-do my own wardrobe, liven it up a bit and not care what others think. I'm also going to try more thrifty stuff , thankyou 😊

[@Oldsoles2]

I’m in my mid 70s and love fashion I’m very tall and it’s hard to replicate what I see. I’m a huge thrifter and resale on line. I find myself thrifting for others but i’m excited to hunt for myself after watching your video.

[@MaryCunningham-u5j]

Wonderful video!!! It is so much like having a friend help you out - thank you! I just spent a very happy couple of hours and $60 at Goodwill for a dozen pieces of really nice clothing - I have no doubt there may be one or two of them that won't work out, but that happens when you buy at much higher prices, too. One of the items is a full-length light gray J. Crew cardigan of cotton and merino wool with a fold-back lapel - I bought the shorter J. Crew knit cardigan at Goodwill earlier this year in camel and am wearing it so, so much. Also got a great light gray dressier cotton and silk turtleneck that happens to match the cardigan, feels great on the skin and will go with so much. If I had only spent $60 on those 2 useful pieces alone I would have been ahead. There is so much clothing available to thrift. However, I was surprised that many of the items on the racks there were in just terrible condition - huge rips, stains that would not come out, moth-eaten, and I am not sure how that works - are they too busy to really triage everything or hoping crafters will purchase damaged items and upcycle them, which does happen with jeans already? It does slow down going through the racks when a lot of it is so damaged it doesn't seem that anyone would really want it but I'm curious if you have seen this where you shop.

[@SallianneHines]

I have seen this too. Plus, so much nowadays is cheap fabrics poorly made, like polyester and acrylic. I still thrift, hoping for the odd real merino wool or cashmere or 100% cotton denim, but they are fewer than in the past.

[@courtneysands6646]

I grab what I like and park my cart and inspect each item. I still miss blemishes once in awhile, but I scan everything. You can't count on them to not sell damaged goods. They'll sell chipped plates, etc., it's kind of shocking.

[@MaryCunningham-u5j]

@@courtneysands6646 I inspect everything very carefully, too - just surprised at how much of the clothing borders on rags some days. I know some folks buy clothing to upcycle it, and chipped china can be broken up for mosaics and other decorative purposes - I guess they put it out and see what happens! Some of it might work for a scarecrow 😄!

[@BarbSterk]

You did a fantastic job with your additions! So exciting and it got me excited too! An outfit idea - pair the green cargos and the cream sweater with your scarf with flowers. So cute! I recently bought a pair of very similar green cargos (Universal Thread) from a consignment shop in my city! Had to tweak the length and stitch down the pocket flaps in the back. I love tweaking my finds to suit me.

[@KristenCainStyle]

Great outfit idea! Thanks!!

[@deborahhadden8129]

Hi Deb from Canada. Your video is a game changer. I love the fact that you thrift items and add a few new pieces to update your wardrobe. My style is pretty similar to yours. Always loved J. Crew. I also have a ruby red pair of Mary Janes, but had to buy new as I was unable to find any second hand ones. They were reasonably priced from Vivaia and I love the forgiving fabric, and the square toe is my favourite thing about them. So very comfortable. Went to a party wearing a black midi dress with the red Mary Janes and received +++ comments. Someone even noticed them under the washroom door and commented how much she loved them. Cable knit sweater, long sleeve t's, so versatile. Never thought about the white skirt, have a black one, but love that white skirt!!!

[@christinerakela1306]

Very inspiring! Have already created 2 new "go-to's" from my existing wardrobe. My style is a replica of yours, so I'm getting the red sambas! Thanks!

[@debrawalters9746]

Love the white skirt on you! It makes total sense with your wardrobe. I so wanted you to put the ecru tennies on with it. The navy skirt is darling and I can visualize it dressed up or down. I really like how you think about clothes. Two years ago I cleaned out my closet, getting rid of about 80% of old, outdated items. I’ve slowly added pieces that resonate with me at this season of my life, I’m 67. All new and thrifted pieces are made of natural fibers. I can’t wear polyester or acrylic, both make me sweat. The real change came when I put on a pair of high waisted jeans. It reminded me of my teen years in the 70’s. They fit my new shape better. Lastly I started wearing scarfs. I got a few, silk and cotton ones thrifting. These pieces really changed my wardrobe. I feel confident, comfortable and happy in my new wardrobe. Happy New Year everyone ❤

[@isabt4]

You are brilliant at this! Thank you! I love everything you presented here, and also the way you organize your closet. What an inspiration. I am off to reorganize my closet 💃💃💃 You have made it feel like fun! ❤

[@KristenCainStyle]

Wow. You made my day. Thank you!! 🩷

[@beckystauffer3483]

Welcome! So glad you enjoyed the video. Happy thrifting!

[@patosborne2442]

Great channel. My wardrobe is starting to feel boring and you have shown me that I only need a few pieces to make it feel fresh. Thank you!

[@KristenCainStyle]

You are so welcome!

[@jengenx7729]

I like your style! Love the combo of thrift and new. I found the best pair of Levi men’s 501 vintage button fly for $2! Thrifting is such a treasure hunt. I also dropped the hem…!

[@chrismctague5015]

Finally!!! Someone making sense to me as far as clothes. It's almost scary. Every piece makes sense and it's soft and comfortable plus it looks good and it's me! I have sensitive skin too. Can't wear wool even though I love it's practicality. Brings to mind all the organdy, nylon, starchy fabrics I was tortured with as a kid. I did find the softest jeans ever at Nordstrom. They have lyocell which I think makes them soft. Thank you.

[@tinabennett8524]

Yes, I use Pinterest to help me. I started using it about 8 years ago to kinda teach myself how to style clothes. I normally have two private dress up days each year, I spend a day trying on, piles, matching, it’s a seasonal thing. Preparing for the next season coming up so that when I’m thrifting I know what I’m looking for. I would PIN looks and then go back and ask myself why I liked it and can I create it from what I have. I went through severe weight loss, then gaining beyond, as well as empty nest and medical issues. I found I needed to purchase new items. The thrifting wasn’t providing me with what I needed. I’m finding the combination of thrifted and new is what I need at this stage, when previously it had all been thrifted, with a few exceptions. I subscribed and am looking forward to watching more, even if its going back 😉 And checking out the past videos. I’m trying to learn about style.

[@veronicacarmody115]

This was a great video. I’ve always purchased thrifted pieces. It’s so important to play in your closet. I did this the other day for the winter season and it was so fun! Pinterest is a great inspiration.

[@KristenCainStyle]

So glad you had fun playing in your closet!

[@LivingYourBestLife-l7g]

[@kathystclair9485]

This is my first time of discovering your channel. I have been decluttering for some time now and trying to commit to wearing most everything I own even if I do not leave the house, in order to find out what I REALLY like and don't. I am 68, try to dress modern, and I try to not become influenced by the newest and latest trends as they come and go. I am only 5'1" so it has been a blessing to know how to sew and alternate pieces that don't fit right. Love the idea of modernizing the lapel. I get a lot of ideas from Pinterest. I am the closest body type to Reese Witherspoon and love a lot of her ideas.

I like the knit jacket and using cardigans in vibrant colors to add interest to your core pieces. Peronally I’m on an “anything BUT black” quest. I’m bored with black! The colors you suggest are lovely ❤ ❤❤ inspiring, will try that, great tips, thanks 😊

[@kathyhaynes6818]

My first visit to your channel and I really enjoyed this video. Your tips will help me so much. It's funny but my fiance and I were shopping recently and he wanted me to look at a pair of Dolce Vita sneakers that he saw because he thought they were "so me". They're a color-blocked design of tan, white and black. I love them and bought them and was so surprised just how many of my outfits they look great with, especially my Cheetah patterned items. I'm glad he has a good eye for my style.

I haven't bought those but have picked up a few pairs of the wide leg jeans and love them, one was from Old Navy and yes very soft and comfortable!

[@KristenCainStyle]

Welcome! And thank you for being here. I don't usually share new pieces so I don't provide many links. The three pieces you mentioned are pretty easily found on their sites. The ON skirt seems to be about sold out, unfortunately. Hoping they will bring it back. The cargo jeans are ON also, but I thrifted them so I'm not sure they're still available. I am considering a ShopMy page in the new year. Truly, I'm a style coach first so the 'influencing' part of my work isn't my focus. 💕

And 7 vests that add more outfits.

[@maxallen-macdonald8791]

I joined Pinterest 3 years ago and just can't figure out how to make it work as in spite of creating new lists, everything ends up in the household category. I was hoping you had added some burgundy to your wardrobe. I find it is a color that has added some gravitas to my top selections and is appropriate for funerals and other formal occasions. I have a 5 year old Amazon essentials v-neck fine gauge pullover that has become a fall and winter workhorse either with a blazer or without. And tonight I pulled the trigger on a pair of Rag and Bone slim retro sneakers in green after seeing your red Adidas so guess we are both going to have stylin' feet! Thank you so much for this!

[@KristenCainStyle]

I love it! Enjoy your new sneakers! They sound amazing. Regarding burgundy... I'm not sure why, but I don't love burgundy on me right now. It's not a color that makes me happy to wear. Maybe in the future.

[@jeanniedanford]

Great video. I understand what you are saying. My first choice is buying thrift and sometimes that is not available. I am slowly replacing all my clothes that are made from manmade materials to all natural materials (and less items in general) and while you can find some things, items like a nice organic cotton long sleeve tee are a challenge. They are typically pretty worn looking if can find but I did find one a few months ago :). You found some great items.

[@KristenCainStyle]

It’s so exciting to find a treasure like an organic cotton thrifted tee!

[@jodycourt]

Thank you for this! The seasons are changing and will be getting cold here in the north and I was thinking I didn't have anything to wear, but I decided to do the hard work and try on things together from my winter clothing and I was pleasantly surprised that I really did have good things to wear. Choosing to put a vest over a jean jacket, a scarf with a blouse, a cable knit sweater with my slouchy pants and a leather jacket. Oh! And I found a brown and a black leather woven belt (in a drawer hidden) that was just what I needed to add some edge. I think the "boredom" factor was what was happening with me. I'm planning to try to make a "new" outfit every day and play with what I have. THANK YOU again. Do you ever share your Pinterest board?

[@MelissaAnderson-y1k]

Thanks for sharing your wardrobe and ideas. When I’m bored (not necessarily with my clothes) I peruse the websites of two of my favorite retailers. Unfortunately I often get hooked on something new and out the wallet comes 🥹. My issue is I know my colors but I haven’t mastered shapes that pair together well yet.

[@KristenCainStyle]

It can be so tempting to buy new things when you're feeling bored, I totally get that! For shapes that pair well, I suggest going into a store and trying on lots of combinations! No need to buy anything. Consider it a research project. Take photos in the mirror of the complete outfits you create and then reflect after the experience on which shape combos you like the best.

[@pattycucahenia]

I really want to love jeans, but I can't. I go a long while with none, think I want them, buy them, and NEVER wear them. I am 59 and finally realized, no more! I live in leggins in fall and winter, which I don't like...too young maybe???, but comfort is key for me. I have a minimal wardrobe and my fall and winter wardrobe is a long sleeve cotton T (bright colored) and black leggins, then a cardigan or long sweater and a scarf if I am going out of the house. I appreciate your video because I have found my clothing boring and the video prompted me to purchase 3 long sweater vests to try. I will see how they work!

[@juliecade4573]

I enjoyed the video! Glad to have found you again. When using Pinterest how do you know what things are current?

[@KristenCainStyle]

Good question! I actually don't care so much if it's current. I pay more attention to if I love it! That said, if you're struggling to know if something on Pinterest is current, you can search for looks and add 2024 or 2023 to the end of the key words. That will usually produce more recent pins.

[@goldenrayofcentralsun1111]

Variations of brown is this winters’ colour, not that I’m much into trends myself. I love the long skirt look too but tend to keep to pants for practicality. Is very much like my looks in outfits. Love your hair. I’m a scarf lover. The brown scarf goes well w ur blue skirt. Be careful just hanging silk scarf in closet, flying insects may end up chewing up on it.

How did you do your pintrest search to find the looks that suited your personal style? Were there key words or descriptions you used like simple, casual or relaxed? Thank you so much...love that you are not an influencer. Susan

[@KristenCainStyle]

Hi Susan. The beauty of Pinterest is that a simple search and a few saved images will cause the algorithm to start finding similar looks for you. I suggest that you search key words that feel like your vibe. The ones you mentioned are a great start. Adding 'street style' or the season can help to narrow down the search. Good luck!

[@SusanCostaphotographymaine]

Thank you so much for this video. Where did you get that gray sweater you had on?

[@KristenCainStyle]

It's old and thrifted. I'm away for the weekend so I can't check the label. Look for a classic v-neck cashmere sweater a couple of sizes up from what you'd normal purchase. That's why this one has such a great slouch. ;-)

[@KathyWhitehouse_RealEstate]

Great video! Glad I found you!

[@kathysteele3071]

This was a perfect video for me today. I’ve been thinking about sneakers to add interest so this was appropriate. It’s funny, I always thought of you as a skirt girl. Those skirts look great on you. Because I live on a small farm and run our construction business from home, And have two very large rambunctious dogs, white is not great for me to wear on the bottom. I envy you that. Your style and color palette is similar to mine, so I will watch the video again for more tips. And I LOVE the YSL scarf I use Pinterest and will go back today to see if there is a trend and IF I need to purchase. I have recently added two pairs of boot cut pants that are slouchy for me and have really changed the vibe. Would love to see, how are you dress up your outfits for the holidays?

[@KristenCainStyle]

You're never too old to wear what makes you feel amazing! Great style is available at any age! I'm sorry to hear about your friend. And likely they were her limiting beliefs about style... they don't have to be yours. 💕

I would like to know where did you buy the half slip in silk please. I have a long time looking for one. All I see is in polyester and nylon, that I despise. Thank you in advance.

[@KristenCainStyle]

I purchased it secondhand at Savers thrift shop. It's 100% silk and I'm thrilled with it!! Keep looking, you'll find yours!

[@blancacedeno5894]

@ Thank you. I will keep looking.

[@EmilyWilliams1967]

Hi Kristen! I love the outfit you are wearing for this video. I love wearing sweatpants or joggers or whatever people call them these days but I struggle to make style time without making me feel like I look frumpy. I think the way you are wearing them looks very stylish.

[@KristenCainStyle]

Thank you! I find that I prefer wide-leg sweats these days as joggers with elastic at the hem always feel like the wrong length on me.

[@silvanam8152]

I was hoping for some links to the newer pieces.

[@lindainfantino1802]

I was glad she told us where she got the items or the brand That made it easy to find.

[@KristenCainStyle]

I don't often link items because I rarely purchase new pieces. And I'm truly a style coach not an influencer. I don't ever want you to feel like you need to shop more to have great style. If you're ever looking for a specific brand or item that I show, I'll be happy to share a link when possible.

[@seagal-1]

where did that gorgeous silk slip come from and what did that cost? Can't imagine it was a deal.

[@karijuvik4387]

Greetings from Norway, I hope you loved it here. ❤ Found your channel today, I like it.

[@KristenCainStyle]

Welcome! Thank you!! I miss Norway. What an incredible country.

[@kimhanback1302]

I like your wardrobe that you've shown us. I wore nothing but Adidas while growing up. I like the look of Converse but I wear an 8 and my foot looks like a boat. But Keith Morrison on Dateline wears nothing but Converse and they always look good but he's much taller than I am. 😆 I have never gotten on the cargo pants train. I wore cargo pants in a uniform I had to wear to work once and hated them. So I choose not to wear them probably because of having to for so many years. The same goes with khaki pants.

[@courtneysands6646]

I love Converse and Keith Morrison!!

[@inkydinkydoodle]

Kristen, I’m old school. I thought it was a no-go white pants/jeans/skirts after Labor Day. What are your thoughts? 😊

[@KristenCainStyle]

I grew up with the same rule. I no longer follow it! I actually prefer cream/white jeans in the winter instead of the spring and summer. I like the unexpectedness of winter white. I wear white sneakers all winter and white tee shirts. I think the Labor Day rule is outdated. ☺️

[@elfriedeschmidt4033]

I just found you and immediately subscribed halfway into your video. I’m 70 and like you, am always looking for inspiration. Unlike you, though, I’m only 5ft tall so I’m always aware of proportions. I love your Old Navy thrifted cargo jeans…will have to keep a lookout. I did recently buy wide leg pants from Old Navy and on your advice will be looking at Pinterest for inspiration. I do have one request…would you do a try on session focusing on layering? I think many of us would appreciate that. Thank you in advance from your friends in the north. 🇨🇦

[@KristenCainStyle]

Thank you for your support! I just filmed a layering video. It will post in December! Great minds!

[@tfromtexas9975]

Can you provide a link for the navy skirt?

[@KristenCainStyle]

I just noticed that it's almost sold out. Hoping they will bring it back. oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=520136002&rrec=true&mlink=5050%2C12413545%2Conproduct1_rr_3&clink=12413545&vid=2#pdp-page-content

[@janetschilling3]

You must pair your beautiful Chanel scarf with your green cargo pants. You could wear your cream converse and cream top or fisherman sweater. (I’m a stylist…) 💃🏼

[@KristenCainStyle]

You’re absolutely right! I love how many women mentioned pairing the CHANEL scarf and the green pants!! Brilliant minds!

[@janetschilling3]

I discover lots of potential pairings by accident when I toss some items on the bed. When I’m exploring in my closet I run items all around to see what might look good together. 👍💃🏼

[@joannathesinger770]

What??? Utah??? I've lived in Provo while working in Park City for the past 12 years...and moved to Park City this fall because I was tired of fhe commute. The Frontrunner/bus was eating up WAY too much of my day (6 hours total) and I don't drive well after dark through the canyons with large critters on the roads...while blinded by the headlights of oncoming traffic. I'm soooo pleased with the reclaimed time!!!

[@KristenCainStyle]

Hello, Neighbor! Park City is beautiful. I'm sure the change is wonderful for you!!

[@loricanner7981]

And you can wear those green cargo pants with that amazing Chanel scarf!

[@KristenCainStyle]

YES!!! I can't wait to wear that combo!

[@karolmolpus9536]

It’s so hot still in November in SC, how do you style for warm autumn?

[@KristenCainStyle]

Change up your colors and textures to make your outfits feel more autumnal.

[@jayhiller2899]

When you got rid of the pieces that didn't fit with what you were thinking anymore, what did you do with them?

[@janedelaney4327]

Where did you get the long navy skirt?

[@KristenCainStyle]

It's from Old Navy!

[@Nickysmom]

I appreciate hearing you like acrylic, poly, etc. influencers who don’t really know but parrot what they hear about natural fabrics only give people an oversimplified and incorrect impression about this subject. There are so many gradations and qualities of other fabrics but you have to feel and recognize it, and they don’t, so they parrot what they hear. Thank you for this

[@neon.neutral]

My fave sweaters all have poly content. Not on purpose, but there it is!!

[@KristenCainStyle]

I hear you. I'm glad you appreciate this!

[@graciered63]

Pinterest… how do you begin to see what’s new and fresh in fashion… where do I start?

[@KristenCainStyle]

Great question! Is there something you've seen in a store, on a person in public or on social media, in a TV show that you wished you had in your closet? Is there something you've been wanting to add but are unsure how to wear? You can use Pinterest to search for new outfit ideas... and Pinterest will then begin to show you additional ideas based on what you search. So, you if you've been wanting to try cashmere cardigans, you could search 'Fall outfits with cashmere cardigans... and maybe add your decade or denim - to gather looks for your age / if you plan to wear the new looks with jeans. See what comes up. Save what you like to a Pinterest board. Pinning is free so add lots of images. Anything that catches your eye. You can also search 'Your Favorite City and Street Style' - mine would be Paris Street Style Fall 2024 or Oslo Street Style 2024. This search will give you current, real-women looks to get you started. Hope that helps!
