Shop Your Closet For Celebrity Outfits | Slow Fashion

TICKETS to my live virtual #shopyourcloset event: msbeltempo.com/shopyourcloset...
Ciao everyone! Today I'm shopping my wardrobe for celebrity outfits! Mindy Kaling, Victoria Beckham style and Liu Wen style! Learning to shop your closet is so beneficial for capsule closets, minimalist wardrobes and shopping less. I hope you like these looks - let me know if you think they are a hit or a miss!
On this channel, I share #slowfashion​​​​​​ and #sustainablefashion​​​​​​ tips that center around how to shop your closet, and restyling pieces you already own. I also spotlight brands that I believe in every now and then. I believe in #creativityoverconsumption​​​​​​, and that we all have the power to be conscious consumers.
Slow fashion looks different for everyone, and I'm so grateful you share this space with me!

Love this format where you talk us through your thought process and why you chose what you did as well as the second options if you weren’t happy with the first.

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

yay! so glad you liked this format!

[@francinepuskarich5755]

Second outfit you nailed it....I love you building the outfit instead of the finished look

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

Great! Glad you like this format! xx

[@francinepuskarich5755]

@@AlyssaBeltempo it’s fun watching you build the outfit. I posted my outfit of the day on Instagram just a few minutes ago.....Binkie21150 on instagram

[@kathysteele3071]

Me, too

[@suzanschneider6163]

On the second look: I was surprised by the difference between the two sweaters. To accomplish ’the look’ the more fitted sweater really mattered. So great to see how you knew it would change the vibe!

[@debrajarnagin7101]

I agree, the better fitted sweater did make a difference

[@Catherine3385]

Love how you explain why you chose each thing The first look came out really nice. Like it better untucked and love the shoes you put with it.

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

So glad you liked it Catherine thank you for watching! xx

[@katem3961]

Hi Alyssa, I read through all the comments and so often a reference to inspiration is made. You have such talent, the fact you inspire so many to shop their own closet with such enthusiasm and joy is just incredible. Love your videos and yessss you inspire me too! Have a fabulous week 😌😋 💙

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

ahhh Kate that is really kind, thank you I take it to heart. Have a fabulous week as well! xx

[@sandramaki7819]

Me too!

[@jackienolan9142]

I liked this video because it basically encourages us to capture the spirit of outfits and looks we love even if we cannot recreate the specific elements of a look that are what initially draws us to love it. I’m embarking on a no buy for 2022 so this is all very encouraging for me.

[@rubinakamboj6091]

As you asked if this format is good of " putting the look together" ?: yes it is helpful as it gives even a better picture of how each element as a build up makes the whole look complete. It's a motivation to build on an outfit completely and not just judge by 1or 2 elements and then give up half way by telling self that it doesn't work . Thanks :)

[@kaysaint8854]

Totally agree!!!!

[@mmmayaaa]

Yessssss

[@kathysteele3071]

I have been a part of every Shop Your Closet event snd they are AMAZING! Alyssa provides the look beforehand so YOU can try to replicate it of you want. SO much fun and I learn so much.

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

yes! It is so great to have you Kathy and I appreciate your support! xx

[@manicjunkie]

Love how you've put the looks together, explaining what you are focusing on while interpreting the looks. Please do more of these !

[@Argeandream1]

I love the idea of shopping our own closets, rather than engaging in consumerism and always chasing after what we don't have, which as you pointed out, isn't good for us or the planet. We don't usually consider the negative impact of throwing away usable items and increasing our landfills, or the clothing manufacturing process which puts gas, liquid and solid pollutants and by-product waste into the environment. I really like this format of seeing your thought process, from looking at pictures and picking out key style elements to choosing outfits and backups from your closet. In all the style magazine articles and videos I have ever seen over the yeats, this is the first time I have seen the thought process of identifying different style elements and picking out similar outfits. It was a very helpful video. Thank you and have a great summer!

[@nehalabdelkader3911]

Shop your closet is starting to be my favorite styling kind of video ♥️ LOVED how the Victoria Beckham look turned out 🤩

[@christinezwicke1002]

Love this format so much. As far as looks...1. The black tank untucked worked better for me. 2. The bright red sweater & striped blouse definitely "won" in the Beckham look. 3. You nailed the jean jacket/midi skirt look for sure! Honestly loved all 3.

[@wrendor9465]

Hit! It's hardly ever a miss with you!! Outfit #2 is beyond dreamy!!!

[@amyhoover9]

I have to admit that Victoria Beckham's outfit and style overall definitely works well on you, Alyssa. I think the second variation of the look is my favorite, but of course, you did well with the others also! 😊❤

[@bluebananaberrypi]

LOVE shopping your closet content, and love that you show how to make styles work with what you have

[@kinshasav]

I like when you build an outfit and talk us through it, too.

[@SeamsLikeAGoodIdea]

Fabulous! Super love the blue/red Victoria Beckham look. Those colors are magical.

[@samiansley5740]

I love this video! I really enjoy when you walk us through your thought processes and explain “why” you choose the items from your closet options. Thanks!

[@juliacann892]

I like your version of the looks better than the originals. And I loved hearing your thought process while picking out the pieces. You make shopping from your closet look so easy! I’ve definitely stepped up my game when getting dressed because of you. Thanks so much!

[@andreaobryant7765]

I like how you make it work with what you have. It usually looks better than the original.

[@Lulusnotreadyforthis]

Thank you for once again posting a video in time to stop me pulling the trigger on some new (second hand) clothes 🙌 I have a lot and I need to use it!

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

my pleasure! So glad to hear you'll rediscover your closet! xx

[@lisafisch]

Grazie mille for advocating slow fashion and learning to love having enough. Your videos are such a refreshing antidote to "unboxing" content. Keep up the good work!

[@teresafinoalchemy]

I love all your looks from your closet. You give them an elegant elevated look. I love the red sweater and striped shirt in Look 2. Stunning with your tan pants! Thanks for thinking of us going into winter. I'm in Australia. This look is very reminiscent of what I used to wear as a teenager in the mid 1970s. Such a fab look! 💜🙏

[@linhphan7221]

Your elegance comes from your blood 🥰 I love all the recreated looks you made, especially two Victory Beckham inspired outfits . I would definitely turn my head if I saw you on the the street in that look

[@marynyhof6916]

AS ALWAYS!!! You nailed every look!!! Looks 2,3,1 were the order of my "liking." Thank you for doing 2 in the VB looks. I LOVED them both!!!! I often wear a fitted ligh weight sweater with a button up beneath, buttoned to the top button. I just love the structured polish it gives! Alyssa you are so good at what you do!!! Thank you!!!

[@jeannettemann96]

Love how you adapted all these looks to your style, yet keeping the essential mood, feel of the original look. So helpful. I have been way more deliberate and more conscious while shopping since I came across your channel way back when you started it. I am still a maximalist but with way more restrain and have a closet full of things I love to repeat wear. The styling challenge is to rewear the same things in as many, many different ways as I can. Where I am most a maximalist is in accessories and shoes which makes it easy. Merci chère Alyssa! Gros bisous!

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

Hi Jeannette! YES! I think you can have a maximalist style and still make conscious decisions as you said:) I am so grateful you still enjoy the channel! I also have a lot of shoes they make a big difference in creating lots of looks! Have a wonderful week Jeannette! Bisous! xx

[@rebeccaw2197]

This is a really fun and educational format - it's helpful to see you walk through the specific points of an outfit beyond just the colors or specific items to find similarities between the image and your own wardrobe. Thank you!

[@shelleyschultz8337]

Ok, so you are just amazing at dissecting outfits and putting new ones together! 👏🏼

[@janicevin4207]

I think your first take on the Victoria Beckham was bang on! I liked it!

[@arpitapaul6353]

Alyssa I am a big fan of yours. I use your styling tips in my real life and since then my mom appreciates my dress sense😁🤝. Thanks for making so wonderful videos. Love from India

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

love to hear that Arpita! Thanks for sharing i'm so glad you like these videos! xx

[@annakrol6912]

I really enjoy this format as you walk us through this process start to finish. For many years I gravitated towards boho style and acquired loads of very colorful, mostly busy pattern pieces. Now at 47 all of the sudden I feel as if my closet is screaming at me every time I open it. So I’m on a new quest towards softer look. And following your advice I give myself time with new pieces selection. But yet I feel as all my looks are very safe and predictable. So glad I have found you Alyssa and this wonderful community here. I’m hoping to learn to be more .. well as you would say “ classic with a twist”! Thank you for all your priceless lessons! And btw. Your Gucci poppy scarf is absolutely beautiful!

[@godblessher1]

Loved all of the outfits but my favorite one was the last one with the jean jacket. They all look great.

[@analys1422]

Third outfit is my favorite. Have a fantastic vacation

[@gracedarlenemcpherson9079]

Good dupes. My favorite was #2-especially the version with the striped shirt and red sweater. Awesome!

[@TallMChannel]

I love the Victoria Beckham inspired outfits, so so great!!!

[@teck1a]

I'm in my 60's and new to your channel. I love the way you make me think through style, fashion. Like a great friend and confidant, you help me find fresh ways to style what I have, and keep me from going overboard with purchasing items I really don't need. Thank you dear one, for all the hard work and thought you put into your videos. God bless you.

[@susanchaney5059]

This is so inspiring...and I love all your looks, better than the originals.

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

I'm so glad you like it Susan thank you for watching! xx

[@connie2286]

Love every.single.one of your recreations. Both the original VB and your twist on there red pullover beautiful ❤️!

[@cindynorris5983]

Loved this! You really nailed outfit 2 and 3. I also appreciate that you did two different looks for outfit number 2. I still loved your outfit number 1 as it shows we can take inspiration even if we lack the items! Shopping my own closet and thanks for the help!

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

Thank you Cindy glad you liked it! xx

[@barbaralorenzana5666]

I love how you recreated the first two outfits to fit your style. I personally think you giving us a second option in the first two outfits shows how we can truly recreate outfits but feel comfortable. That third outfit is my favorite! It was so feminine and flirty.

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

So glad to hear you like this format!xx

[@aqoui1874]

Yay! I like that you add an outfit for winter. Here is really cold❄️

[@jenna3198]

I agree with a lot of people - love watching you build the outfit! Also would love to know more about your custom suit and what you were looking for. I would love to have one myself. The fit is incredible!

[@tanyaeve9498]

I really like watching how you choose different items and also all the different options. Super inspiring 🙌

[@mandiereds]

Loved this video Alyssa. My favourite was the Victoria Beckham outfit. Nailed it. Also loved the Plan B. I love seeing how you can pick an outfit and then make several more outfits by tweaking it and changing it up. More please. I would love to see how you might take one outfit inspo and change it up for all four seasons and from day to night. 😀

[@lisabailey6605]

I really like this format. With the Mindy Kaling look you could have added a patterned belt maybe to incorporate that element.

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

Im' so glad you like this format Lisa! Great idea with the belt to add some print!

[@elizabethsmith1803]

I think your version of look one was far nicer.

[@freefallingintograce4634]

So lovely! Hi Alyssa! Wow, you've killed all the looks, and I prefer your version on the first look! And no, it's not the end of the world if some of us don't have a printed knit vest. 😂😭 But it's good to be reminded.😎 I love this format so much - when you talk us through your styling tips and tweaks. Thank you for another great video. Your smile is getting more amazing every day, as if it's even possible! Big hugs Bella! 💖🌺🌺

[@JeanFB16]

Yes more please! I love this format of showing us how you determine how to create the looks/finishing touches "in real time" so to speak. Love hearing the thought processes - it helps so much!

[@TheAmiMom]

I seriously loved all three but I especially learned from how you did look two with two sweater and top options. This was very instructive! Going back to take a couple of screen shots to remember the looks!

[@dawnmichelle1835]

Thanks to watching some of your videos, I went out of my comfort zone and when thrifting the other day I picked up an off-white designer silky collared button up - in one fell swoop I completely elevated my wardrobe. Couldn't believe it. Not my color or style, yet I discovered I can wear it over tanks and it adds a pulled together and almost expensive look to what before was sort of well...sloppy, or today I popped it under a black oversized scoop neck tee. I never could figure out how to wear that tee, it looked blocky and blah, but the collar shirt under (it's very light and sheer so still fairly comfortable in summer) completely turned into something I could wear out to coffee with capri jeans and feel pulled together without being over the top. I also really appreciate when you note not everyone wants to show off their waist or "curves." No matter my size, all my life, I gravitated towards the layered everything hanging down straight look - you've offered several tips I can incorporate to help take that silhouette out of frumpy (what's cute at 20 is bag lady at 50 sadly!) to intentional and artsy. Thanks for your videos :-)

[@Aurora-Sky]

Oh that Victoria Beckham inspired outfit is my fav.🥰Great job!

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

thank you Aurora! xx

[@gracewithnaz]

Love the two looks you created with a tan trousers!!

[@serenawang213]

OMG I can’t believe Liu Wen’s look was from 2015, it’s so chic and timeless! You nailed it! I love this one the best out of the 3 👍

[@tanyabooysen3958]

What a lesson in fashion!I am so inspired to do this it seems like so much fun and and an excellent way to breath new life into my closet,thanks so much🇿🇦

[@eunitataylor4263]

For me, all 3 were a hit! Loved them !!!

[@marylaidig5755]

Loved outfits 2 and 3. I think both recreations of outfit 2 were spot on!

[@enmelinediaz812]

Always very creative Alyssa. Loved the last look because I love love sweaters, t-shirts, dresses with blue and white stripes.

[@Ivymoon]

I love your last two recreations Admire also Victoria Beckham styles and season colections. And for your last one, you inspire me to put the look together this next saturday for my family «carne asada» for father's day. . CIAO Alyssa, you made my saturday. Thanks girl😎👏😸

[@rhondavanmeter5015]

Looks are a hit. You look especially fabulous in the last one.

[@20kjw]

I love the red jumper version of the VB outfit! X

[@Robin-no8cu]

Bingo on the red sweater! Nice job! I'm inspired!

[@gailwapiennik2226]

Yes I like this new format and look forward to seeing more!

[@marcypitts3745]

You and I just repurposed a black midi halter top and an amazing Linda Allard for Ellen Tracy emerald and lime green, 100% silk, pocketed, vertical-striped wrap maxi skirt from the 90s that will totally ROCK 🎸 ‼️🥳

[@thatswhatisaidCA]

Hi, Alyssa! Thanks for another fun video. Wanted to point out, that Mindy K has a theme in her look: the sweater vest and the baseball hat purse both harken back to original early days in baseball. The players wore the sweaters (very early on) and the old leather look of the hat... A nod to beginning baseball.

[@christinamanucy8037]

Yay, Victoria Beckham! I think both options you put together work, but I really love the baby blue and red color combo-one of my favorites! ❤️

[@JayJackson007]

Hits & misses but definitely INSPIRING!!! At this time in my life I appreciate imperfection. Great job 👏🏽 ❤️

[@chinadoll5852]

Loving the different outfits with your wardrobe

[@tinakragelund5105]

[@mariehebert9597]

I like this format . I like watching how you build up a look

[@Anna-Anna53]

Chow Alyssa i so love the fashion inspiration Victoria Beckham creates and i believe you too, could you please do more of her style. Great video👏 I also never thought of wearing the last look. I want try that look. Yeah

[@nomvulavmoloko6255]

You always nail these #ShopYourCloset looks. I love the improvised red sweater alternative, it had more va va voom!!

[@somanigoswami7108]

I would have loved to see that Victoria Beckham look keeping that over sized sweater and fitted pants and the invert colour look with a white pant and a blue shirt with that red.

[@ms_prescott_regrets]

Love the new format. It really helps us hone into how you re create an outfit. Outfit inspiration is just that m inspiration. I really like how you encourage not copying the outfits but capturing the spirit of each combination. Lots of fun 🤩

[@lululopez879]

The live shop your closet events are so fun, great community and a how to style learning experience. I have been part of two events and looking forward o the next.

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

[@fitzhughfitzhugh4243]

I love this video. I’ve been shopping my closet and it has been so much fun. I add a few accessories. Thanks for keeping it real. We don’t need as much as we think. Good job.

[@sarahmason952]

Nailed it! So lovely to see how you put the looks together.

[@lfkilcran]

Loved these looks! I actually liked the black top out and not tucked in. It really highlighted your slender waist and hip! The Victoria Beckham looks were great, too! I would never have thought of putting red and a light blue together. Both looks worked, but I think the fitted red sweater with the stripe top replicated Victoria's look, better. If you had a light wash denim button down shirt....that might have worked as well. Every Canadian I know seems to hasve a denim or three jacket, jeans, and sometimes shirt in the three shades of denim....dark wash, medium, wash and light wash. Of course there are other denim colors as well, but the three washes of denim are very common up north in your territory. I actually started copying this as I found these very useful~

[@jegno2243]

I really enjoy the exercise of breaking down looks and as an avid watcher I try to guess what you'll pick from your closet. Thank you for sharing your ideas, I just need to be better in tune with my own wardrobe! For the first look I liked the knitwear untucked, it accentuated the waist without a sharp break at the mid-line. 😊

[@kathleencassel1350]

This is a great idea, one which I have tried in my own closet. The analysis of the inspiration outfit was very informative. I could see more clearly the elements of each style. This is actually very satisfying without frivolous spending or wasteful accumulating.

[@ell6100]

I love the last out fit! It does look great on you

[@welcomwelcom9882]

Love the video! My favourite outfit was with the red sweater and striped shirt! Great inspiration! 😍

[@glassslippergourmet]

👍👍 on the format! Loved the Victoria Beckham look! 😍

[@deborahmac1997]

These are always so much fun. Favorite, #2. Love the look and Victoria Becham is one of my go to inspirations. Both versions are so good on you but the fitted red sweater 🥰

[@helenvwalker7919]

I agree. 2nd look was so much better with the red sweater

[@mercedesleorasargeant-thor7562]

Love the victoria bechem look best however all were inspirational. Happy sunday

[@12harrypotterfan34]

You always do such an amazing job with these videos! I really like the Mindy Kaling one - even though you didn't have the exact same pieces as her, I think the finished product worked better with your style while taking inspiration from her outfit.

[@nicolehood6408]

I got inspiration from the way you approached the Mindy Khaling outfit. I have a metallic pleated skirt. I don't have a baseball cap purse, or patterned knit vest, and my current body shape isn't most flattered by leaving a shirt untucked without a belt or something. So, I like seeing how you turned the inspiration into something you'd actually wear. As you've said before "inspiration, not necessarily recreation". YOu completely nailed the Victoria Beckham look, and that tailored look is accessible to most of us for everyday/office/work and errands. For the Liu Wen look, I might have tried your cognac loafers because they would tie in with the leather on the basket bag, and be lower contrast than the mainly white uppers of the pointy flats you tried this time around. As always, nice looks! I bought a ticket to your next live event!

[@dlindsay913]

Lots of fun! You nailed it! Enjoyed your thinking process to get to the end result.

[@karenwilson7295]

Love you and love this format. Breaking down the styles really shed a new light on things. Off to shop my closet. ❤️. BTW! You are so beautiful in every outfit you put on.

[@DoeRaeMe]

Oooo, this video! I can’t wait to watch🤩 I would be a big sucker for any other bohemian lookbooks/styling tips from you 🥰 that’s how I always dress but I love hearing your pattern or formula behind your designs(ha, outfits😍) Getting dressed is literally art😘

[@marylaidig5755]

Also just think these videos are such fun. I love the way you evaluate the elements of style and walk us through your process. It has helped me define my own style and love working with my wardrobe in a way I never did before.

[@jeanettelopezfernandez7103]

You nailed the Victoria B. look!

[@maryharper9321]

Loved the tan slacks and red sweaty

You're a styling genius! I appreciate the encouragement to use what I already have and to step outside my comfort zone. Love this format!

Oooo! The last one was fantastic.
