Style Type Series: Tastefully Timeless

[@lyndellwerling]

Great video. I love that you said timeless women aren't sloppy. Street style is often that way and the reminder that being pulled together is possible on any budget resonates well with those of us who can't wear jeans & sneakers for many of our activities.

[@bourneleader96]

Some other wonderful brands that are less expensive are New York & Company, The Limited, White House Black Market, Ann Taylor, and sometimes you can find some nice timeless pieces at Banana Republic as well. 😊👍

[@sarahgernannt]

lol those are all expensive

[@perfumaphilia3246]

@@sarahgernannt They are less expensive than many other brands that cater to a similar demographic.

[@perfumaphilia3246]

J Crew and J Crew Factory Store are also good.

I’m so glad I kept searching on my KZbin suggestions for an Elegant Classic Wardrobe for Women ~ your videos are simple with a lovely boutique style film set. 🥰✨ I’m refreshing my entire Wardrobe in these 5 categories: 1. Career+Business 2. Socializing ie: brunches+dining 3. Travel 4. Body Fitness+Wellness Workouts 5. In home loungewear ++++++++ I use to work for The Timeless Clothiers, Brooks Brothers here in New York City Madison Avenue & Liberty Plaza as their newly appointed Womenswear Client Specialist Manager under the designer Zac Posen 2015 to 2018

[@merfwriter]

This my preferred style. I love classic timeless look. My style celebrity are the Hepburns: Audrey and Katherine.

[@kaytanabladesrichardson6669]

Finally, you hit it right on the money. I could not decide what my style type was, but I know now as a woman in my early 30's with a tendency to wear classic, clean looks that I am a timeless beauty. Every single piece you showed I have similar items in my closet. Lauren you are amaze"balls".

[@perfumaphilia3246]

I'm relatively new to the world of fashion. I never put too much thought into what I wore until recently, so I'm still trying to figure it all out. I think my personal style is some combination of classy, edgy, french chic, and minimalist. Surely it will become more narrow in scope and refined as time goes on. But more difficult than identifying personal style has been figuring out what actually looks good on me. Reading about body types and clothing can guide you, but you just need to try things on. I'll fall in love with a look on a model or celebrity, try to emulate it, but end up looking completely different from them. Or I might love how someone else looks in an outfit, put on something similar, but end up not feeling like me. It's a lot of trial and error, and finding what actually works for you.

[@geminitauberge]

I absolutely adore this video! I would love to see your suggestions for tastefully timeless in the summer. It's far too hot in FL for my beloved blazers and long sleeve blouses.

[@monimtenga7412]

geminitauberge for real did you ever find any solutions for this?

[@talkswb]

My preferred styles are Creative mixed with a bit of Dramatic! And a hint of classic but just a hint 😂❤️🔥

[@suzystyle]

Very nice and the pieces I really liked. I always look forward to your videos!

[@lesliecarnes8775]

I just bought a cashmere and wool Burberry coat at my favorite consignment shop in Sacramento for 1/4 of the retail price!!!! Thank you for your videos Lauren. I have learned so much from you

[@seanjohn864]

her skin is glowing

[@MsOnitemi]

This is totally my style. Thanks Lauren! I would add Charlize Theron and Amal Clooney as style icons. Also, you had the Givenchy Antigona handbag hanging right there and you didn't talk about it! I love classic structured bags and that is another hallmark of the timeless style. Another timeless designer that I love (and is quite affordable!) is Laundry by Shelli Segal. Love everything she creates!

[@amandalh60]

Love love love your videos Lauren. Your are the best thing on youtube. An avid Aussie fan.

[@LaurenMessiah]

Aww thank you so much!

[@aizhansyzdykova3521]

Lauren Messiah your dress is caught my eyes. could you please say where is it from?

[@dollred912]

I just found your channel today. How nice to find a series on style. TY.

[@zzz36999]

You did such a great job! This was about me, this is my style, now I understood how to call it ;) Tastefully Timeless! Yesss!

[@celinap.5572]

Great video as always! 💕 Could you film a video about a little bit transparent blouses? Because I have a lot of them and I never know, what to wear underneath.

[@aritarsmusicthatrock]

i agree

[@christine1962ful]

Celä P. Brilliant idea. I look slim around the tummy when standing but once seated, a see through top would reveal all sins! Would love to see a video on that. Especially as the weather is changing, and see through blouses seem to be everywhere in 2018!

[@drokhep5760]

Your Videos are so smart. You are definitely a savvy stylist. Keep making them. Seasonal wardrobe style videos would be nice.

[@stucumins8511]

Cool hair Lauren! Love timeless, tasteful style, it seems so classy. An accurate descriptor for my weekday working look. Regards, Deb.

[@sandrasequeira9045]

This is my favourite style! LOVE!!!

[@erica7798]

Hi Lauren, love your channel! I'm 29 years old and asian...the problem with us asian is that we look 10 years younger than our actual age. I always have a hard time dressing appropriate to my age as I don't wanna look like I'm a teenager. I tend to reach for plain or solid colors but It feels kinda boring. I need help. Thank you in advance.

[@mpmg67]

Looking 10 years younger than your actual age is a PROBLEM??? I'm sure you look wonderful !

[@chyna_eyyez8523]

Asain that looks young? Wow! Thats a good thing! ENJOY IT!!!...it is very seasonal!...

[@cassiemarie859]

it seems like theres some cross over between pieces that could be considered tastefully timeless vs minimalist. I think my personal style these days is a cross between the two

[@L_Jyll_Dixon]

Finally, my style has a name!

[@stylingwithvictoria-person9726]

Lauren, thanks for your videos. Question: most of the examples are in black... can we get a style inspiration excluding black? thanks a lot xox

[@blufaerie]

This whole series is just amazing and so helpful!!! I think this one might be more my style but I still have a few more to watch! 🙃

[@sherryhudson930]

I m a tastefully timeless person, age 67 but I have an apple shape body and cannot tuck a shirt in, so what do you suggest?

[@Appleton-WI]

Sherry Hudson - no problem! Avoid chunky or cable knit sweaters. No ultra light or slinky materials. Wear clothing that has "body" to it so it hangs well. Bring the focus to your face/upper chest (with collared shirts, necklaces or earrings, light shoulder pads, brooches, bright scarves) or to your feet (with spectacular shoes or studs on the lower outside of jeans), and longer jackets, sweaters, vests that hit just below the bottom of your butt. Balance your figure with straight leg slacks or jeans. And, yes, you can tuck your shirt; lightly tuck one side in over your hip letting the hem of the shirt hang across you on a diagonal. Elegant!

[@estelamourao]

Perfect! Love your videos, Lauren. I'm your Brazilian fan! kisses 💋

[@notheme3394]

Just started watching your videos and love your hair in this. You look so beautiful!

[@marinastefanidou942]

I am from Greece and I am a big fan! I watch all your videos and are very helpful. I am 46 years old, teacher in high school and I dress in a various ways, casual chic, upgraded bohemian, edgy classic or modern romantic e.t. according to my mood or occasion. Is it alright or we must meanly have ONE style? I still have a difficulty to find my signature thing...

[@elismycat]

Actually I don't think I have "a type"....one day I may feel like dressing classic, another maybe boho chic, another day I might feel minimalist... I dont' think we have to have a "type" of style! Just to know how to put an outfit together that looks good, flattering, stylish and reflects your charisma. Thanks for the tips!

[@RosiBosi]

Great video and amazing top!!!

[@madhawibisht]

you are amazing lauren!!

[@LaurenMessiah]

Thank you :)

[@CapeCodBelle]

Excellent video and so helpful!

[@joannashares5567]

Awesome video - spot on!

[@stephanieg2000]

love this series!!!!

[@reverendmary-catherineryan2552]

p.s. I also have a thick, short waist that you can barely see and you say to tuck shirts in. I admit to not wanting to sloppy, but I don't want to look cut in half also. I did also mention before what do you recommend for a dramatic/ sensual personality with a touch of trendy personality type and which one of your style series do you recommend? I absolutely love making an entrance and being sexy, but trampy. I also like to throw in a bit of trendy to catch people off guard. In other words " Flashy Not Trashy With A Bit Of An Edge" is how I'd describe my look.

[@bamx123]

I consider myself to be somewhat minimalist/tastefully timeless and im having a hard time blending both styles and figuring out what fits my style best. Any tips you could give me?

[@franziskab.1528]

Barbara Mello Why would you have a hard time? I think a minimalist closet like the timeless classic closet is all about basics and classics that go with everything, right? Maybe you don't have to limit yourself to 30 pieces.

[@evewerder9414]

[@iresine31]

This was a great and really helpful video!! You are killing the game. Do you have a recommendation for where to get more budget friendly blazers and a similar look to that givenchy (I think) bag?

[@ThriftyMiss]

Forever21 and H&M offer some surprisingly decent blazers, though you do have to be discerning with your selection. Look for good fabric that doesn't pill easily (check the exterior armpit area for fuzz after trying on and enthusiastically rubbing your arms back and forth). Also look for a blazer that is lined- the fabric will lay nicer and have better structure, and especially with light colors, you won't see right through to the seams and clothes underneath. As always, check for good stitching, and it should last pretty well if you take care of it. I have a blazer from F21 that was under $30 five years ago and one from H&M that was on sale for $15, and both are still in great condition and look way more expensive than they were. You could also thrift shop, and may even score a designer find. Don't be afraid to buy something like that and get it tailored if you love it and the fit is a tiny bit off; if it fits in the shoulders, the adjustment shouldn't be terribly complicated.

[@doh2934]

I really appreciate these videos. I feel they would be more useful if you added links as to where to get both the investment pieces and the budget equivalents. Thanks

[@jessielawrence3349]

So far I'm a minimal, edgy, tastefully timeless. This narrowing down is difficult!

[@gy8275]

Lol,same❤

[@honeyrose390]

Could u do a style tips on girly and preppy look😍

[@hedds93]

What would be an option for a pump for this style? I was thinking of a pointes flat.

[@fortunatebrown1513]

Just subbed Lauren. You are exactly what i need 👍

[@madeleinem.8313]

Great video! Speaking of timeless classics: how much timeless luxe can/should one go in the everyday life? I own a vintage black Chanel camera bag with golden hardware and i'm a bit reluctant to wear it in this average town of mine. I actually wanted to invest in a new classic flap, but i fear it would be too flashy for the everyday life as well. I don't ever see branded stuff on the street here. These people don't seem to care much about style anyway. What's your take on this Lauren?

[@bourneleader96]

Yes! I live in a rural small town and NOBODY here ever dresses up. I love classic, timeless pieces but I look so ridiculously out of place.

[@Magdalene777]

I wish I knew who the oversize doctor's bag was by that is hanging on the rack by the trench coat. I love that bag.

[@Honeypepper.]

hey Lauren love your vids but, can you link the website to the pieces in your vids in the description bar below please and thanks😊

[@ambergonzalez1448]

Ahh where is that dress from? I tried zooming in but could not see lol

[@alilies]

Is that Kooples dress from an old season :( It's so pretty!

[@withinpines]

Where is the black purse hanging on the rack from?

[@SuperLeonieXD]

2:28 *looks at bank account 39 cents...*

[@michellederoo6280]

Where is the chanel-esque dress from? I love it!

[@MaryInTheSky1]

the Kooples

[@nehemiacalixte3289]

Oh my god, I think I found my style

[@reverendmary-catherineryan2552]

What do recommend for a dramatic/ sensual personality and style type? What style series should I be watching of yours?

[@Archergrl5]

Hey Lauren, fyi the title frame has a format issue tastefull (space) y (space) timeless

[@LaurenMessiah]

Thanks for the heads up. I'm clearly overworking my editor 😬

[@Archergrl5]

+Lauren Messiah LOL no worries I just figured you'd want to know

[@CCtjehh]

I have a problem with the shoes, how can you be timeless when you can't wear pumps or ballerinas? If I were to wear a suit and put dress shoes underneath it becomes very masculine but if I use a boot it just doesn't match... I'm seriously struggling with this :(

[@manishalokwani6617]

what brand is the last black dress ?

[@MaryInTheSky1]

the Kooples

[@atmisianipar]

hi lauren, i think u need a music background for this video. but i still love your video, really helpfull

[@LaurenMessiah]

yeah i know :( my editor forgot to put the music in there. i was debating no video for the day or a video without music. i went with music free.

[@Archergrl5]

The audio and content of this video are great but for whatever reason the video was having issues when I watched it of being jumpy and occasionally being mismatched with the audio. (watching on mobile)

[@bourneleader96]

I honestly think it might be a problem with KZbin! TONS of videos from different people have had this issue lately.

[@Archergrl5]

+bourneleader96 Huh. Possibly. This was the only video I've seen recently with that issue.

[@bourneleader96]

+Archergrl5 It could just be her, but I've been noticing it a lot on mobile recently.

[@mariedannenberg8149]

I'm not sure if i can pull this Style of...i'm 18 years old and i don't wanna look like someone acting adult in a childish way...i might need some other type of inspiration

[@resitiara5766]

1.25 speed suits me

[@carolynsmith9172]

You are pushing "Fast Fashion" Big no,no. Slow Fashion helps worker make a living wage.

[@francescamercedesguilliod4767]

I think she should play music in the background... maybe change the kind of music with kind of style that is being covered.

[@ritagaston1556]

Wearing weird top ...skin tight tights...not classic or edgy to me.

[@chyna_eyyez8523]

Good content... you could show more enthusiasm... you almost made me want to skip this video. if the content was trash I definitely would have given this a thumbs down, but considering the content, I went ahead and watched. Show that u care about what you are talking about andv I others will too!

[@betty4gators]

michelle obama???? come on - not so much!
