Ooh, an Ellena Hue video, (pulls up a chair and popcorn). Welcome back, we’ve missed you!

[@jillkent6134]

Very helpful, you used all the basic clothes that I also have so now I have some new ideas 😊

[@sugarplumk2381]

😂 sounds like me.

[@sallyadams3981]

Dear Ellena, may I ask you to show us how to style and accessorise light weight clothing for very hot weather 35⁰C+. Scarfs are impossiblely hot, as are multiple layers and boots. Even trainers are out of the question. It is challenging for all of us. A lot of my summer clothes are made of cotton voile fabric. It is actually cooler to cover up than wear tank tops and shorts as the fabric protects from sunburn and wicks away moisture.

[@Dollface122]

Missed you! I’d love to see a video like this but for hot summer weather

[@sepidehakhaveissy7692]

Will you please talk about different body shapes and what works for them ,thanks

[@kathysteele3071]

I see lots of requests for warm weather outfits . I know it’s early but some of us are planning for summer. Would love to see some summer ideas.

[@vickyargyraki8366]

Hello Hellena! I am so happy to see you again! I really missed your so inspiring videos!

[@EllenaHue]

Vicky, I'm so happy to be back! I truly missed the longer video format on KZbin!

[@greenofhearts]

You are my GO TO STYLIST!!!

[@EllenaHue]

many thanks!!!

[@karisheets2323]

Please do videos for those of us who live in hotter climates. We cannot wear all the layers.

[@karenwilliams4152]

Indeed! Does that overcoat come in chiffon?? 😂

[@saraheardley7546]

I always want videos for lots of cold wet weather like we have in the North East of England 😢

[@wrendor9465]

Every outfits rocks! You really know and have style 😊❤

[@jhnk87]

Could you please make a video on how to style clothing with bags and shoes? Not only in the perspective of colors but also considering the structures and shapes. Shoes and bags always seem to be the hardest ones to match with the outfit!

[@cocoparisienne1779]

Love the idea with the earcuff using as a broach.

[@karenwhitworth9505]

Dear Ellena , delighted to see your new video.. longed for ! The quality and professionalism of your content and delivery makes them all utterly mesmerising. Thank you . And yes , long intros are awful .. you have the right approach by diving straight in. Please post again soon - you are adorable 😊

So so glad to see you back. You were definitely missed.

[@NellaBongiorno]

Hello Ellena please post more videos on KZbin (I don’t have an IG account). Also I’m going through menopause and live in Australia where it is mainly warm weather so layering is only occasionally necessary. I love, love, love your videos!❤❤❤❤ Please post more ideas on KZbin You have beautiful style and beautiful content which I love to watch Thank you 💕

[@utra_dora_2337]

Hope you'll find time to make more videos for us😊 Nice to see you back 💚

[@mariashattuck7117]

Hello Ellena. Thank you for coming back with your fantastic tips on color and fashion. Also, thank for including a video in English!

[@em384]

Hi Elena! I'm happy to see a new video. Blue velvet Mary Jane's! Yes! I need a pair! I love the salmon handbag with khaki ❤

[@EllenaHue]

thank you for your comment!!! 😊

[@irnalonso]

I'm so pleased you are back! I missed your content. I would love if you go in deep about accesorizing because I really don't know how to choose and style the right accesories. And you are never flashy neither boring. This right balance is something I'm aiming to achieve

[@susansibley8093]

Exactly, Texas here. Layers are out if the question.

[@wem-c9f]

I am ironing my clothes and paused when I saw this outfit on you @11:36. I thought it looks amazing! Very nice video! Great styling!!!

[@susandewet93]

My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE!! Our winters are not so cold and wish she would do combo’s for hot climates 🥲 More like the 1st denim outfit… better for our climate

[@alhana8293]

I hit follow on your Instagram, but really I’m never there. I just watch KZbin. I love this video! ❤

[@civilizeddiva]

I appreciate your comment. I don't have an Instagram or Facebook account, and I get all my content from KZbin. I realize I may be missing out on quite a bit, but the behaviors I hear about on these platforms are concerning 😳

[@mariacabral3967]

Another great video. Adding a vest to the stripe top ❤ I needed that layer to finish my look. Thank you!

[@anjak.jodeit8061]

You're a genius 🎉

[@HélèneZielasek]

I love it so much. Just great! Looping forwar to watching more of your Video. Good job🎉😊

I HAVE to get a satin skirt! ❤ Hey, can you talk about how you choose your sunglasses 🕶️ sometime. They really MAKE the whole look.

[@irinagoran4361]

Спасибо большое Елена, очень интересно ❤ как вы соединяете цвета

[@yasmin1036]

Hey Ellena! Glad to see your video. This is super inspiring ❤. And I am so thankful and glad that I found you in earth! 😊 Thank you very very much for your guidance & tips. You help us to create spicy, elegancey in our day to day life .love & respect. ❤🎉💥👌

[@izabelazagorska2082]

I love this color combination! I hope You do the same video with cold color combination :) ❤

[@Ivymoon]

As always, love your styling ideas ❤

[@dinaramadan3416]

I love the scarves

[@Divinenubian]

Great styling tips. My favorite is the jeans and white t shirt and the black pants with striped turtleneck. Wow, all of them are super cute!

[@lynnpetti3817]

Another, missed you, but doing 100 outfits of the day must have been challenging. Thanks

[@susymartin4618]

I would love to see a video for warmer weather i live in Florida. 😅how do you layer for hot days?

[@joycemorrow5840]

I follow you on IG. So many ideas that I wouldn’t have thought of that I mostly already have. Thank you for helping me and fellow followers to change up the game of actually styling my pieces. We are blessed with your knowledge of color combo and proportions. Love it❤.

[@adriennebrown3778]

Missed you Ellena 😢

[@Lisa.AmenAlleluia]

Love it! Adore YOU!

[@belindasmith8790]

Thank you for your informative videos. Please address how to be elegant in a semitropic area. I live in florida where at 9am the temp is already in the 80 to 90 degrees. Neck scarves, sweaters, and the layered look will cause heat stroke in less than an hour. Please help the over 60 ladies here.

[@vblackwell3347]

There's been many similar requests w/ no answer. I fear she doesn't want to give us the sad news that we're doomed in Fl! 😅 There are many similar requests w/ no response. I fear she hates to tell us that there's no solution other than being hot, perspiring & no style. Wah. 😢😊

[@kslucki]

LOL I'm so guilty of non-styling style ... I actually clearly saw it now in your video. Thank you for the ideas. I'll join the comments regarding warm climate suggestions.

[@loganran4074]

I've just discovered your videos and am really enjoying everything! I do want to ask you do make some high-heat summer styles. I live in New England (north east of US), while we get colder falls and springs and freezing winters, our summers are very hot and humid - I'd love some pointers since this season needs a lot of help not to look boring or overly casual. Please give this some consideration :)

[@vblackwell3347]

That seems to be impossible. 😮

[@saundraweed9738]

I keep collecting beautiful scarves but never know what to do with them. Thanks for the answer !

[@a65-2]

Do you have a how to wear scarves video?? I have many but never know how to wear them, how to tie them etc

[@alamedadanceparty]

Yaay! I always feel like without layering and accessories my outfit is SOOOO boring. 😅

[@silviasiri7443]

I follow you on IG …. BUT I prefer your KZbin videos and content

[@vetervgolovy]

Awesome outfits!!!

[@carolmelancon]

Except for my university days, I've always lived in a tropical/sub-tropical climate that makes it so hard to use the "third layer" style tip. I LOVE blazers, sweaters, and cardigans but can only stand to wear them about 3 days out of the year. As an "apple" the third layer would be so helpful, but even lighter layers can be uncomfortable in +90 F. Can I please have some cheese with my whine? 😉

[@vblackwell3347]

Oh yes. Me too & millions of others. Let's plan a pity party. It seems anything else is impossible. 😮

[@jeanettebennett1527]

I am very cool toned and have no clothing in my wardrobe that has camel or any warmth in tone. If I try I look incredibly ill. These idea inspirations are very good and so I thank you for that!

[@karmagallery9922]

in Asia the weather is too humid to go layers here but I love your videos

[@lissyparker1783]

Do you have a link for the cropped trench jacket? Love all of the looks❤

[@katharinewowk9519]

Really enjoying your videos. Wondering if you can discuss dressing with health issues…such as footwear with bunions and arthritic big toe, knee replacement and knee brace, and I also use an abdominal brace. All this makes wearing a long dress the only option to hide all the under braces such as knee and abdominal. Footwear with stiffer sole. Layering with a large bust is NOT an option. Wish you would discuss busty women who are short waisted.

[@mbh3004]

in the outfit with neutral beige silk long skirt, adding the long cream sweater cuts you in half until you added the cropped trench which visually creates the 1/3 - 2/3 proportion. Loved the look but is it practical?If you remove the trench because it is too warm indoors, the awkward proportion returns. How do you manage that style conundrum? Do you keep a belt in your bag? Same question about the next look with a long black vest layered over black wide leg trousers. For that outfit you were cut in half at the hem of the vest. Even though there is continuous black and not a harsh line of contrast, would the outfit be further improved by applying the 1/3 - 2/3 rule with a short vest or defining your waist with a chain belt or something? Thanks for your excellent videos. I wish I had your lessons when I was 20!

[@suzannespencer2762]

please do a capsule for hot weather

[@ClaudiaGarcia-ms1pi]

For sure I’ve been using your tips to improve my style. All in my closet and forgotten vs unsure on how to combine them (scarves, button down shirts, etc). I realized most of my tops are tshirts, tops sleeveless and either black or white with some patterns. Button down are the more difficult to use for me as they either tend to open at the breast level, or when sitting tend to inflate as a balloon. Shirts are tricky. Do you have any hints/recommendations to meake them more user friendly? Thanks

[@vblackwell3347]

There's a good one about gathering the back w/ a lg. safty pin. It works! 😂

[@girlinmtl]

Love love!!!!

[@janerochfort2134]

You are amazing 👏....you inspire me so much I have a problem...I look absolutely gastly in the ' round neck white t shirt '....I have a larger bust so the round neck does me no favours and the colour white drains me!!! What simple piece can I use in place of this much favoured fashion item please? I screenshot all your outfit combos....hurrah Kindest regards Jane North Wales UK 🇬🇧

[@irnalonso]

I have a large bust too and I use a V-neck t-shirt instead. It doesn't have to be very deep, just showing a bit of skin there makes everything looks better and the overall vibe is the same. Then, you could go for white because it is not so close to your face, but I have also find that cream or ecru work just as well as white as basic colors. But I would pair them with blue jeans one or two shades darker, just my preference

[@Stalwart-zy3oo]

I also look drained in white and have a full bustline. I agree about a V-neckline tee in ivory, beige, or cream, which has a yellow under base color. Having your colors done can help you find what your ‘white’ shade is for your complexion. I am ‘Autumn’ in coloring. We can wear any color bottoms. But what is next to our faces is what determines our best colors. I also agree that a dark wash denim is what I would wear for myself, age 75, and not a pale blue. To me, it is a younger color and more casual for my style. I live in a dry climate but cold winters, hot summers. Colorado has cooler nights and summer can be in 100 degree range. She is showing here more Fall/Winter season clothing. In summer I would layer with a necklace vs a scarf. If you are cool tones in face wear silver or white gold, platinum. My skin is light with golden undertones. I wear either gold or rose gold earrings. But I go wear white metals sometimes. It’s not set in stone these rules. Often fabric stores can help you locate someone to get your colors done locally and help you identify what is your season. Fall is warm tones. Winter is cool tones. We can choose to wear any metal colors. But our complexions are either cool or warm. And hair color also determines what clothing colors look best on us. I am a retired accountant and not a stylist. But I always ‘wowed’ my co-workers at the corporations. Also try vertical stripe tops/blouse vs a horizontal strip. They are out there. I am really learning a lot from Ellena’s color combinations she puts together. I am enjoying her videos. This is my experience with fashion and colors. Best Wishes for you for your summer wardrobe changes! Stalwart. (This word means loyal).

[@vblackwell3347]

Have you tried a white v neckline t top. They work terrifically for me. 😊

The scarfs date the outfits and the way you use them so does standup collars .

[@em384]

Ellena... I am watching you on Instagram every day. I love your outfits. I am trying to find pants like your orange/red flowy pants.

[@EllenaHue]

Hi! I'm happy to see you here! Well, about those flowy pants, I've scoured the net to find a similar pair to add to my LTK shop. I searched EVERYWHERE! Every corner of the globe... And yet, nothing... Not even a hint of anything similar...

[@joanp105]

Where to get the vest please

[@moonchild650]

Regarding outfit 4 - It looks gorgeous on you, Ellena, but I wonder if it looks the same on someone like me who has an hourglass figure and not as thin as you are. What do you think? Wouldn't a tighter top be a better option for curvier ladies (I'm asking because I have a similar skirt and I'm not sure which top to pair with it)?

[@vblackwell3347]

An hour glass figure. Wow, THE perfect shape! It seems like the same rules that would apply to an oval face: anything goes? Show off that fantastic figure proudly. I'm so-ooo jel jel! 😢😊

[@moonchild650]

@@vblackwell3347 Thanks, dear. Don't be jealous of anyone. Love your body and remember that people with so called perfect body or face also have problems and issues.

[@vblackwell3347]

@moonchild650 True that - but still, I want an hour glass figure! wah ; )

[@susansibley8093]

I'm a 16/18. Not sure larger pants will be slimming me down...just the opposite. I'll stick to straight leg.

[@MaheliaVliese]

[@rosemarymonty5399]

I understand the layering of different types of colours and fabrics,,but to be honest hanging a sweater over a sweater in Vancouver Island, Canada looks a bit weird and it’s also too hot to do in spring and summer.

[@susansibley8093]

I agree. It is so impractical to layer a sweater over another sweater. Plus, it's another piece to be constantly fussing with.

[@lisabarbosa4476]

Yeah! Finally you closed your orange bag! I was having anxiety attacks all the time I see it opening and expecting your wallet to fall down. Jokes apart, I love your style ❤

[@vsylve01]

Outfit 4 cropped olive coat jacket is missing from your details, and I need it badly!!! Help!

[@joycegreer9391]

I definitely have black pants and blue jeans, but I'm not a beige person or stripe person. I don't call striped fabric prints either. Stripe is stripe; prints are like florals and geometric patterns.

[@carolannf]

I wonder if you’re soft dramatic in the kibbe styling ~ I’d love it if you were, I’d just dress exactly like you 😊

[@Зоряна-н4е]

Layering is cute, but you go from easy summer outfit, T-shirt and jeans, to cold spring one, including a trench coat. Will not work for summer. All your looks are pretty, but will not work for hot weather. And all stylists keep recommending layering.

[@carolalvarez3925]
