HOW TO FIND YOUR PERSONAL STYLE // Fashion Mumblr

[@LoretoEM06]

You don't get enough credit, subscribers or views; honestly you are the best youtuber out there. I cannot thank you enough for working even more than what you already do to bring out a video each day during this horrible time, which I must say here in Spain is worst than any can imagine. Your videos help cheer me up every day ❤️ Hope that you will soon get the attention that you deserve 😘😘

[@JosieIrons]

Loreto Eche era kind of you thank you!

[@MsJbetancur]

Seriously! Amen! I seriously don't understand the KZbin algorithms.

[@Paula-uq6oe]

so I actually made a list and it helped me!☺️ it showed me the reality: I only wear comfy things in neutral light colors to look clean. I never wanted to be that girl that prefers comfortable clothing, because I want to be elegant and feminin. But I realized it just doesn’t fit my lifestyle right now and because of lighter colors and some comfy blouses, I can still have that feminin touch!🥰 (I hope you all write a list yourself and find your style!)

[@Cindi.Bennett]

Idea: Josie, would you pull out your top 5 pieces and show us how they apply to this? Watching you talk, how about show us? Maybe even a "thumbs down" example or two? Thanks for all you do!

[@glgardener4972]

Great idea. I hope she will do this.

[@lynnmccarthy007]

Great idea 👍👍

[@danzbutrfly]

yes

[@roberta7891]

Agree

[@annas7892]

Yes yes that would be best!!!!! Or maybe invite some blogger friends with other styles to co-produce this?

[@s.nikolovska2729]

Quenstions i ask myself when shopping: 1.would josie wear this? 2.would blair walrdorf wear this? 3.can i make more than 5 different outfits with this item? Thank you for all of this amazing content 💗🌺💗

[@JosieIrons]

S. Nikolovska love that!!!

[@hermioneliu6982]

Simply watching you makes me feel so cheered up, especially during time like this. Best of luck with everything. You work so hard and put so much thoughts in your videos. Seriously if I could register for thousands of accounts and help you reach 1 million I would...

[@helencousins2911]

Hi Josie, This is a 'timeless' video and any age group can benefit from the 'stylist' tips you provided. This video will definitely be part of my playlist. I just love how you organized the steps to go through evaluating one's wardrobe to be prepared for future purchases. You create great content and so happy I decided to click on one of your videos. Your channel is part of my subscription list. Congratulations to you!

[@JosieIrons]

Helen Cousins ah so kind thank you!

[@kkouz45]

2018 Me: goes through closet, purchases style book, identifies style. Believe I’ve nailed it. 2019 Me: KZbin logarithm gives me Josie. Change my color palette to rose, cream, and olive; add lots of feminine pieces. 2020 Me: Love my closet! Thank you, Josie! 💕

[@glgardener4972]

What style book did you purchase?

[@JosieIrons]

Love that!

[@kkouz45]

Lady Slipper a Kindle book, The Curated Closet by Anuschka Rees

[@glgardener4972]

@@kkouz45 Thank you. I will check it out.

[@kkouz45]

Lady Slipper I followed all the steps and took my time with the process. The best thing I did was the new color palette a la Josie. Now all my purchases coordinate with everything I own. Outfit possibilities are endless.

[@veannalee1658]

Been finding it challenging to find new videos to watch on youtube. Thank you for your hard work for uploading every day, really enjoy your videos xxx

[@JosieIrons]

Veanna Lee you’re welcome!!

[@odalysalvarez305]

It's been most helpful following you especially when it comes to shopping new items & spring cleaning. Its definitely hard to move past something you love, but know you'll never wear. Or letting go of an item you love, but just don't wear.

[@talyajohnson7190]

Going through pics in my phone helped. It shows you where you really were and how you looked, what you actually wore. Mind plays tricks.

[@aresia01]

Maybe I am the only one, but I have very different styles that I love so my wardrobe have different things not just a specific style

[@anajovanovic1102]

me too :) I mostly dress for the mood I'm in that day.

[@victorrelmek2889]

Same!!! Sometimes I feel girly like Josie, sometimes I feel bohemian, sometimes I feel like wearing a leather jacket. Maybe I just don't know who I am........I am like you Josie in the sense that I don't wear black because I wear alot if it at work.

[@IonIsFalling7217]

ME TOO!

[@annas7892]

Ohh you make a good point - i think this is whats up with my wardrobe... was trying to harmonise it in colours to Josie's but i have plenty of old but good blouses from other colour palettes that it would be a shame to throw away so much money. And some are indestructible and dont need ironing at all

[@siennaoks6662]

Same here

[@sarakjeldsen769]

I love your videos about style! I actually took a look at my Instagram back when I was posting more often and was really happy with my pictures and what I was wearing in those. My clothing is a mix of classic all black outfits, girlie pink doll-ish looks, and bold red pieces. When I'm feeling the most comfy with myself, I''ll usually wear more pink or neutral colourrs. My style is girlie with an edge. I also look at who I follow more on KZbin and Instagram - it's either girlie or edgy girls, normally blondes, so I definitely relate the most to the blonde girl aesthetic.

[@watermelongal5512]

I think having your own personal style is great! This was really helpful.

[@mariahrichardson1745]

I was listening to everything she was saying, but all I could think about was: "Her style is so dang beautiful!!"

[@dawnpotts5941]

Oh my goodness! This video was fabulous!! I came here to watch this video because of the video you released today February 20th 2022 and recommended it… it is without a doubt the best video I’ve watched about finding your personal style! So relatable and easy to follow, I’d love to see some more videos like this maybe breaking down each section even more with examples… loved it!!!

[@linvarrow]

BTW..really respect you for doing a Video each day..seems some influencers are slowing down during this tough time. You are working more than ever..it's appreciated.

[@ccz2508]

I recently started wearing boots, but wear them with jeans. I just love your stylish videos. How great it would be if you could make a boot style video; to help myself and others.

[@VionaBee]

You are truly a treasure of knowledge when it comes to fashion. I've learned so much from you, and I'm still learning. 😊 Thank you. I will keep these questions in my head, next time I'll go shopping.

[@Fafreshmp]

Josie, loved every tip, as usually :D! Thank you for this!

[@snelkookrijst]

Ohhh that 70/30 ratio for staples and statement pieces is really helpful!! I think I own mostly staples and am really conservative in buying trend pieces so I’ll take this as encouragement to be a bit more adventurous!

[@dixierush304]

Thank-you! I look forward to watching your video everyday when I get home. Frontline worker!

[@samiedennison1550]

Loved this video! I would love to see your recommendations for the best places to buy clothing basics: white blouse, black, quality pair of jeans, etc.

[@ellieb7200]

I remember the previous video on this and love this updated version. Xxx

[@JosieIrons]

Ellie B yay! Enjoy!

[@andreaperrin6257]

Really helpful tips Josie, thank you. The analysis bit is definitely the hardest. I've removed some things from my wardrobe already and I'm sure there's more to go.

[@hris9214]

Omg your tips are soo helpful! They are clear enough to follow 🙂

[@robatint]

This is an amazing video! I love your content and your tips are very helpful! Thank you for sharing!

[@salmanaaz211]

Wow what a fab video. Such though out and detailed advice. Well done Josie. One of my tips is to go shopping with neutral make up and hair as you usually wear it. Also to take a picture everyday for a week to see what you mostly reach for. Or to have a “what was I thinking moment!”

[@alimackie6454]

Your recent content is amazing, Josie, it’s astonishing you haven’t got more followers. I’ve watched your channel right from the start and have seen you develop and mature as a KZbinr. As one of your more mature viewers, your advice still resonants with me. In my twenties and thirties I purchased clothes randomly and was surprised that I only wore jeans and a t shirt as nothing else in my wardrobe would go together. Over the years I have purchased less but better. I may spend more but seek out high quality garments that fit and flatter me which I can wear for years. The size of my wardrobe has shrunk but I’m wearing a greater proportion of it. I’ve curated the staples which form the backbone of my wardrobe and I know will work with more trend lead pieces. I only wish someone had told me your advice 20 years ago so that I hadn’t wasted so much time, effort and money!

[@francinepuskarich5755]

Thank you for all these great video.....my personal style always includes a belt and a scarf ....either around my neck or on my handbag........can’t await to see you tomorrow ....

[@sherryedwards695]

Very educational. I fell in love with # 1: Carrie Bradshaw & # 2: Charlotte. Of course I was shopping with them in mind. Bad mistake, so not me. Unfortunately, I do not live in such a fashion-oriented city and I would stand out like a sore thumb and be noticed in not the most flattering way. Carrie's look would work for me but not in my casual ethnic city. Although, I adore Charlotte's prim & preppy look, the straight lines are not my most flattering. So, I then brought Stacey & Clinton (in mind only) and they threw away my whole wardrobe. So, even now when u go shopping I carry Stacey on one shoulder and Clinton on the other shoulder and listen to what they whisper in my ear. Occasionally, I notice something that I admire on someone else and I go shopping for it. I'm still a work in progress but my mistakes are fewer and further apart. A great video and great tips.

[@sugarlee7648]

I’m making masks so I’m watching mask videos. But this morning I needed a dose of Josie. Thank you for being a port in this terrible storm. And thank you for making so much content! Hugs. 😘

[@alexdreamBIG14]

I feel like I need to start writing things down when watching your videos. since we have been in quarantine I have been watching religiously. So much info and so much rich and different content. I appreciate your hard work and positivity. 💜💜💜

[@bhobasichijaboutfits1567]

I saw a lot of videos of the same subject, ALOT! This is the most successful fed, as you said practical tips, well done.

[@tinabecker1313]

I need to be asking myself these questions when I’m shopping! So helpful!!!

[@jjoy5838]

Ermehgod - I did this tonight and afterwards my style jumped out at me! It felt so obvious and now I am way more confident about what to keep and what to get rid off (Also doing some Marie Kondo cause quarantine life). This was so incredibly helpful! Thank you so much Josie!!!

[@MariahTahmisian]

I've started doing the tag thing where I don't remove it until I wear it and if it's in season, typically make myself wear it before the return deadline. Great video!

[@kieelaine1085]

amazing video Josie. You work so hard and are so knowledgable and articulate

[@joan8178]

Josie, One of your best vids ever! And I love the dress you are wearing. So grateful for your videos. Look forward to them every day. Stay well.🙂

[@elenajane4687]

We really appreciate the work you put in your videos, especially during these times! Thank you! 💘

[@marieaxen645]

Wow, what a perfect list of tips! Even I, who have a wardrobe with only irems I use, find a lot of new things to think about. I will do the analystic with my current clothes to see why I love these clothes so much and why they are so right for me. So a big thanks Josie for your new video! /Marie from Sweden

[@heathervalentine8222]

Lovely. I often buy two of something if I really know I will get a lot of wear out of it, especially shoes. Josie, you have been a big influence on me developing my personal style. I have definitely lightened up the items in my wardrobe. A few years ago I started an embargo on any new items being black. I definitely have a feminine emphasis on my look. I am also influenced by Jackie O, Coco Chanel and Audrey Hepburn. Simple, classic, chic. I am fine boned and slim. I find less is more with me.

[@levinderodhiambo9664]

I'm definitely buying more classics than trends after this video

[@vowo1890]

Great advice, very helpful! I find that we could use this time when ee have to be at home to try and sort out our wardrobes and kinda even try on outfits that we might not usually wear, because it could be a pleasant surprise! I feel that the older I get, the more confident I become, but also more careful about things I buy and gow they fit! Looking forward to your (hopefully) vlog tomorrow!

[@deepwaterhappy3609]

Using an app like Stylebook allows you to pull statistics on your most and least-worn colors, most and least-worn items, and more. Makes paring down very easy.

[@tianastroshin7031]

Watched this once, and then again once going through my closet. I find it hard not to be drawn to the newer pieces in my wardrobe as my ‘favourites’. This was a very helpful way to look at my clothes though, thanks 🙂

[@cynthiabradford155]

Josie darling, One of your very best (if not the best) videos! I absolutely agree with your analysis. Fantastic advice! Keep it up, your videos are a blessed relief to another one's monotonous hour, day, week, month, and year! Thank you for lifting my spirit during these extreme situations. I think your personal style is very romantic!

[@mariaocampo7240]

One of my fav videos of you!So useful😍

[@1010happygolucky]

Great video! Exactly what I needed right now. Video suggestion: I think you should experiment with a capsule wardrobe...maybe for a couple of weeks? You're in quarantine anyway and it would be interesting and outside of your comfort zone

[@letitiahansford307]

Time to go shopping!!!

[@eileenchang2173]

Thanks Josie for the checklist. When I buy a new item and do not wear it right away, I enter in my phone calendar, a reminder of the last day of return for that item , so that I do get stuck with an item that I intended on returning.

[@beverleyannexoxo]

Really enjoyed this video Josie, such simple, yet really useful steps. It’s gonna be painful for me when I realise just how much money I’ve wasted on pieces I’ve hardly worn but hopefully with your fabulous styling tips, I’ll not make the same mistakes again! 👍😉💕 Also, I’d love it if you could recommend some dog walking outfits please, such as walking boots, and layering pieces. I always reach for joggers, old trainers, and a hoodie, but would love to look a little more stylish! Thank you! 😘xx

[@margaritakovaleva2707]

One of my favourite Russian KZbinrs has referred to you as her role model in her video about elegance. I definitely agree

[@arli6118]

Hey Josie, your videos are a good distraction from the current situation so thank you so much for your hard and consistent work. Any chance you can do a midi skirt collection and all the ways we can style them? 😊

[@emmypatten9326]

Brilliant video, Josie!

[@painsucks7993]

Another great video Josie. ❤️

[@jennietourville5801]

I'd like to add, if you're like me, hourglass shaped and rather short, then a good rule of thumb is if a garment looks good on a mannequin (or model) or the hanger, it probably won't look good on your body type.

[@lauriecarpenter2902]

Believe it or not I have dressed in scrub suits for the past 43 years. On the weekends its jeans, leggings & t shirts. I crave a personal style, but it will have to wait until I retire in December. I will definitely have to re-watch this video. It will be an exciting way to start my next act!

[@patriciaf4783]

Excellent and amazing teacher ✨ 💕 thank you Jolie Josie 🥰 💐

[@emmajoseph2603]

Fantastic video! So informative, I’m definitely going to do this. I have become more comfortable with my style in recent years too and I think this will be so interesting to do.

[@alexandrapintea6053]

Really helpful! Finally understand how to decrease my wardrobe and found the common thread in the things I buy that I don't end up wearing.

[@amandabull1135]

Love this video. Truly the most helpful!! Thank you! I love all of your videos! Style, travel, daily vlogs, and more!!!!🌺

[@Swoopiify]

Love your style and your tips are actually really helpful. I've literally been binge watching your videos these last few days. Keep up the great work! ❤️

[@ninabelfield1077]

Absolutely brilliant video josie, I ❤️your channel soooooooo much xxx!!!!!👍🏻🤗😘

[@sabrinaj1996]

You are by far my favourite youtuber!! Amazing video as always! I admit I always ask myself if you’d wear that before buying something 🤣❤️

[@zaioto]

Josie, please make some kind of a check template so we can stick to it while building our personal style and dream wardrobe. Thanks!

[@tanvi5378]

This video is very informative and so very helpful. I have saved it to my 'guide' playlist. 💕

[@treeflan5682]

Josie, I just scrubbed my closets. Before I did, I asked myself these questions. I now have four large trash bags for charity. I found my color palate, my classics, and a few trend pieces. With the lifestyle I have, I need casual classic. Thanks again for all the great info and the detail to get me to that point. Great advice. You have really influenced the way I have put together my wardrobe. You are such a gem. Thanks for keeping us going through out this crazy time. Also if I click on a link it takes me to the UK site then I have to transfer to the US side do you get credit for that? If not that needs to be dealt with. I have purchased a huge portion of my wardrobe from your social media sites. Have a blessed day 🙏❣️

[@susanojohnson6445]

Josie ❇️ darling, this master class along with each of the tips you have shared in the last month or so could be an individual video or vlog! Allowing time for the info to be fully absorbed & become a natural part of our individual process! 🌞💗🤗

[@mindsQuill]

Your video is really reassuring because I do all the things you have mentioned... And it took me almost 4 years to nail it down! 😇 Thank you! Hope you and your family are doing well ❤️

[@anitaclemens2609]

I have worked in a corporate office or with clients and prospects for most of my life. Fortunately, that is my style. Blazers, skirts, slacks, blouses and tailored dresses. On weekends I like crew neck cashmere sweaters and trousers. I do wear dresses when I have a date night with my husband, but they are all tailored, except for the holidays where there is more velvet or the summer, where there is more breezy sundresses and shorts. I love the way you dress, but I can't pull it off, I am more comfortable in navy blue, black or white than any other colors, it is hard for me to pull off prints, I don't buy too many. I don't wear jeans too often unless they are black or white. When I do wear jeans, I always think I can do better with a navy or black trouser. Sometimes, I just think jeans look sloppy, like you aren't trying. I love the way the women in Europe dress, sometimes I find the American style of jeans, jeans, jeans or daisy dukes a bit much.

[@sharonfollmer8178]

I love this! I always have such a hard time cleaning out my closet because I don't really go anywhere, so it's hard for me to remember what I wear and what I don't. I'm hoping this will become more obvious the more I go out and put outfits together.

[@duchessswan4456]

This is the best advice ever!!!!!!!!! ❤️

[@sissim.7898]

Great video 😊 thank you for your tips.

[@andreapirringer7008]

Your declutter video inspired me a lot. I actually managed to tidy up and clean my closet yesterday. I arranged everything by color. It turned out that there are only 10 colors that I always buy (in the last few years) and like to wear again and again. This already created a personal style. 5 years ago I didn't have that clear view. I didn't worry if an item suited me, the main thing was that I liked it. Now, I tried to clear out a few things, but I kept most of them because they are favorite pieces and in very good condition. (I buy more quality today than I used to.) For some pieces, I wonder why I bought it and never used it. Mostly it is the material, because you don't feel comfortable in it or the cut is uncomfortable. I found out something important: some colors only work in combination with others. Example: Beige makes me pale. But if I combine it with dark blue, it looks much better. So I can wear a sweater that has a pattern in these two colors. I combine light purple with cream. Then it flatters my complexion.

[@JosieIrons]

Andrea Pirringer that’s fantastic news!!

[@annaa6937]

I LOVE your content right now! 😍 You're my favourite on KZbin!

[@arthurtheaardvark13]

When you mentioned the ratio for bottoms to tops, I immediately looked guiltily (but lovingly!) at my near 30 pairs of Gymshark leggings that are pretty much the only things I wear 😂 those plus the Gymshark joggers 😚😚

[@emilylouise1971]

SO HELPFUL!!!! I love your videos and this helped so much! 💕💕💕

[@taylorplaskowitz5763]

This was a very helpful video. Thanks for sharing.

[@kirstymcl3425]

Thank you Josie! This vid is an excellent top up from the last one three years ago. I had a clear out the other day but my closet still jam packed, I'll definitely employ some of these new questions/methods :) x x

[@angellawalker4948]

My personal style is tshirt or nice blouse and jeans wihh a slipper or flats😊

[@marychocolatefairy]

Thank you so much, Josie! This was incredibly helpful and will be useful as I get my wardrobe ready for spring/summer. Though don't take this the wrong way, but I've discovered from my "worst" list that I need to stop buying white things, lol! I was far less surprised that most of my loved things were pink. But another thing my list tells me is that I do spend money wisely, since the items of biggest value were ones that were on my favorites list or just missed it.

[@margaritajackson4354]

This is so useful. Thank you!!

[@ncfitness72]

Great tips. I love your style especially the creams and nude shades. I tend to be inspired by other people's style but it doesn't always work for me. Lately I seem to have gone down the slippery slope of wearing my gym gear all day since working from home so I can spontaneously workout.

[@LadyEsLuxuries]

It has taken me many, many years before I found my style, and it has only been particularly the past 18 months where I have started to settle into what works for me. The questions I ask myself are: 1) Would my younger self be inspired (and reconsider the choice of garment in her hand for something more refined)? 2) Would my current self radiate confidence? 3) Would my future self be proud of my choice?

[@sara.sara.]

Your comtent is so interesting and thoughtful recently!! Thank you

[@Chunkyshoesuk]

Love this!!!! Going to have a go at this over the Easter weekend 😊

[@chrissy6853]

This was amazing advice... and very helpful... I'm in the process of a closet overhaul at the moment and this is going to help me weed out all the mistakes etc. so a big thank you to YOU! ;)

[@Carlie12345]

I was shaking my head when you said…” do you buy that top only to realize You have nothing to wear it with and then you have to go and buy five other things? YES! Guilty!

[@rebeccachaconnaranjo7440]

Beautiful video and extremely useful!

[@minakshidave567]

Was an amazing video as always ..I actually liked ur tip from the ted baker event last year where u mentioned to go visit different stores like selfridges, John Lewis etc and try their personal assistant service if I was very clueless as to what I want and what my style is....it kind of helps to see as to what they recommend and build the ideas in head from there.. For an absolute clueless person like me who is transitioning to their 30's and higher ranks in career I was stuck in a rut between 20 's clothing to dressing more appropriately for work etc...that tip was a saviour... I won't say I know exactly what my style is now but it has helped me evolve and understand my body and likes and dislikes...along with some of ur tips in the video it will definitely help...I'm at a more Confident and happy place now...I guess I will definitely try to incorporate these tips now that we in lockdown and have time to our hands 😘😘😘I couldn't thank you enough as I was at a stage of thing myself for being so clueless...and i can't recommend you enough to people who haven't subscribed..u are honestly an angel and really hardworking... It shows... Loads of live and stay safe 😘😘😘
