What video would you like to see next?

[@R.Sab.]

Really nice video ☺️ you seem so nice thanks for the video 💛

I love this word - bouloches. As an American, I say the clothes are pilling, but from here out, I will incorporate the word bouloches. That alone makes me feel more expensive!

[@MademoiselleSpends]

Aaahaha!!! Your comment made my day! I love knowing that there is now a lady who says « bouloches » in the US 💁‍♀️♥️

[@staceyknoell6339]

Does it translate into English at all?

[@MademoiselleSpends]

@@staceyknoell6339 It translates to pills mainly, but also to "matted fur" 🐱

I love natural material. For me, quality means so much. Love vintage luxury handbags and antique fine jewelry. I learned from my aunt, great aunt, and most of all my mother that less is more. I am years old, slim, petite. Classic styles do not fall out of style easily. No fast fashion or polyester for me. Thank you for this video, I have subscribed.

[@MademoiselleSpends]

We are completely aligned 👌 Bienvenue!

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

The best style video I’ve seen in ages! Thanks, subscribed ❤

[@MademoiselleSpends]

Merci! And bienvenue ♥️

This is not a new concept, these copycat bags have been around for years. True or not, no one could get close enough to examine the inside of my bag. *condup* Unless you are an airport security guard. Ha ha ha ha

[@christinekellyrose9435]

Finally! Thank you for saying showing all those VCA or Cartier stacks is trying too hard. One piece, yes...stacks ...non

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

Your list of tips or guidelines almost exactly agrees with my own! I only wear natural fibers, plus the rayon/viscose family (the “manmade cellulosic fibers”). These fibers are very breathable, which is essential for us older women who overheat easily, and non-irritating, because they’re made of plant fibers, not plastic. I can’t even wear plastics like polyester in blends and plastic footwear, belts or bags are simply unthinkable. With the addition of this one tip to follow below, I think your guidelines will lead to a quality, tasteful and expensive look, low-budget or not. The additional tip is about fit: ignore size numbers/letters except as a starting point for trying on - there is absolutely no consistency in sizing anymore. Don’t wear clothes that are too small, the biggest style mistake I see US women make, or too large, either. Those horizontal creases across the body indicate that a garment is too small, and will only make the wearer look much heavier. I also would avoid Spandex, except in exercise clothes. Spandex makes clothes squeeze and cling, reduces breathability and cheapens the look. I just made the mistake of buying two Ralph Lauren, cotton with Spandex, knit dresses in my usual size medium without trying them on before I cut the tags off. They make my tummy and bust look much bigger than they are because of the squeezing and horizontal creases, I should have gone up at least one size! I checked the label, they have a huge 9% Spandex, yuck, no wonder. Brands love Spandex because it makes fabrics cheaper, but I should have been more careful, even Ralph Lauren has cheapened their fabric quality lately. Now I have relegated these to house dresses, it’s a shame.

[@MademoiselleSpends]

Thank you for your kind words! I couldn't agree more with your point about fit! I also buy different sizes depending on how they fall on me. This is great inspiration for a future video on how to dress for different body shapes! I am sorry to hear about your RL experience, I was still under the impression that they were not trying to cut cost... Cutting costs in material quality really is a plague that touches so many brands!

[@AsanaCrystal]

fantastic tips :)

[@MademoiselleSpends]

I’m so glad ☺️♥️

[@R.Sab.]

Loved this video! You seem so nice I am looking forward to more videos keep it going ☺️✨💛

[@MademoiselleSpends]

Thank you so much for your kind words 😊

[@cynthiawoodburn5025]

Excellent tips...presented directly and streamlined! Keep up the good work:) While I know that navy, beige and black fabrics look more expensive..how about a video on how to wear colors like pink, yellow and green that can look expensive?

[@MademoiselleSpends]

That’s a excellent idea, thank you for the suggestion!

[@barinyasere3418]

Hey what are your go-to brands for white shirt/blouse like the one you showed at the beginning of the video?

[@MademoiselleSpends]

The one in the video is from Vero Moda (I bought it two years ago) and the places I’d go to to get more of them would be Zara or H&M👌 the old money aesthetic is trending this summer, so these pieces are really easy to find!

[@marieoliphant8305]

Fun video. Nice to discover you. Thanks, or should I say Merci? 😎

[@MademoiselleSpends]

De rien ♥️♥️♥️

Vegans can’t wear leather

[@MademoiselleSpends]

There exists very good plant-based leather! They are a bit more pricey (like the one Veja uses for example), but a great alternative to real leather. Samara is for example a great brand that makes gorgeous-looking handbags from apple leather. Other option: back to natural fibers! Bags in cotton, straw, linen etc... As soon as your plant-based leather looks mat, it will give that expensive-looking vibe :)

[@angeliqueglopez]

We don't wear/use silk or wool either.

[@MademoiselleSpends]

@@angeliqueglopez Stick to the cruelty free alternatives. You'll look expensive with cotton, linen or viscose. There are great vegan silk alternatives (from bamboo or soy) that totally look the part ✅
