Spring Wardrobe Styling with Melissa Murrell, Personal Stylist for the Everyday Woman

[@jaquelinewright1656]

As an American that watches your videos please keep saying jumper/ trainers. I think it keeps your channel authentic. It was very easy for me to figure out what you were talking about. Enjoyed the video as always.

[@mmpersonalstyling]

I appreciate that, thank you so much. xx

[@augustathompson6847]

Absolutely! I’ve never been remotely confused about what you were talking about. It’s often a “oh, I didn’t know that’s what they called it in England” moment, but it’s never been unclear. Thank you for the wonderful videos!

[@vickif.4645]

Not confused here in Chicago. Carry on ☺️

[@teresajazey524]

I agree!!!

[@peggy-ann1961]

It’s easy to know what is being refered to, keep it real, keep your channel authentic! ❤️🇨🇦❤️

[@nillybetty7599]

I for one, really appreciate that you use the English names (jumper v sweater). There are so many American videos in this field but only one of you. You're the only one that does such detailed explanations. I've learned so much from your videos. Thank you, and your team for sharing your knowledge.

[@mmpersonalstyling]

Glad you like them! Thank you for taking the time to write in x

[@vickiwest4149]

Dear sweet Melissa ~ I can tell you that this American does not mind at all when you say trainer or jumper. It's adorable and it is suited to your spot on the map. Just like anyone in England wouldn't expect Americans to use English terms when they're doing their KZbin videos or blogs. You are very kind to comment 'or sneakers (sweaters) as you say in America' ~ but again also not expected. Sure hope there aren't fellow Americans making you feel like you should. You ARE a dear heart. I hope you and your family had a lovely Easter.

[@mmpersonalstyling]

That’s such a lovely message to receive, thank you for taking the time to write it. Yes…we get a lot of emails saying ‘how disappointed’ they are in me for not using American terminology!! So I really appreciate your support, thank you.

[@sandysutube63]

That is so silly! I am an American and I find it quite lovely to hear all your lovely words. Always stay true to yourself. You are unique!♥️🦄

[@bodyandsoul17]

@@mmpersonalstyling Please just ignore those emails! As an American living in the UK, I'd find it strange if you didn't say jumper or trainers. Some people just need to travel or read outside of their own bubble!

[@knowsclothes]

I live in Alabama, USA and my best friend here is British. I have gotten accustomed to the different terminology from her and you,and now use them without noticing! It's part of your charm and authenticity. I like the random content. It's more like a normal shopping trip for me because I just zero in on whatever I see that I like, not necessarily sticking to a theme.

[@kimhanback1302]

I live near Muscle Shoals, to AL. I know one person with a British accent. I love British accents and terminology.

[@storytime8205]

I'm always happy to see those Sunday morning videos from you and the team, Melissa. Definitely don't change your British lingo -- I'm from Canada and love your British terms!! ❤

[@mmpersonalstyling]

😊 thank you

[@reneejohnson2048]

I'm American and I couldn't agree more. If you want to go out of your way to translate for your American audience; that is very kind, but not necessary. Jumper it is!

[@lorikoch9474]

Wholeheartedly agree!

[@lynnmyrick4045]

This American absolutely LOVES when you use British terms!!! In fact, I’m a bit embarrassed for my fellow Americans who complain about not using US terms. Keep bringing your culture to the world. It’s fun and refreshing!

[@mmpersonalstyling]

Thank you, that makes me feel better!!!

[@jennarie83]

I’m American. I watch your videos so much, that sometimes I say jumper instead of sweater and my friends just stare at me with a blank look LOL. I have to remind myself that most Americans don’t know what a jumper is. I love hearing the different words for things. It’s easy to figure out what you are talking about. And If I can’t figure it out, I just google it. 😊

[@mmpersonalstyling]

Love that! Thank you x

[@aheminger4977]

Hi, I just wanted to tell you how much you’ve helped me. As a 59-year-old woman I never really knew how to dress, I don’t like to shop, but I do like to look good or at least put together when I go out. Your videos have helped immensely, and I’m now building a wardrobe that is functional and focuses on neutral colors which I tend to love anyway. No more bright crazy prints or patterns for me. Please keep your videos coming. They have been a lifesaver for me and my sisters by the way!

[@mmpersonalstyling]

I'm so glad and that makes me really happy to hear that it’s making a difference, thanks for writing in. X

[@irnalonso]

Not only I love your English words but also your British pronunciation. I listen to you without the subtitles and your voice is helping me to improve my English. So triple thanks from me: for helping me choose better my clothes, for helping me to stop feeling guilty about the huge amount of white and beige shirts and tshirts I own and for improving my English skills! Btw, I found a cute red second-hand shoulder bag and bought it because I was obsessed with getting one after watching your previous video!!! 😂

[@mmpersonalstyling]

Thank you - love that you're learning English from me - that's so funny! Great on the second-hand bag purchase, I love a good second-hand purchase!

[@Isawthat411]

Your videos are the absolute BEST out there! I’d love more videos on cute, warm weather outfits with only sneakers. That truly is the most worn, day to day outfit for me and my friends:). Thank you! Love you guys!!!!

[@mmpersonalstyling]

Will do!! Thank you x

[@JoR00ke]

Another cracking video Melissa, thank you. I'm so happy you say jumper and not sweater, so many British KZbinrs use American terminology, loads started calling Autumn 'Fall' last year, drives me potty, we need to keep our language!! 😁 Why didn't Uniqlo let you both in the changing room, what did they think you were going to be doing in there?!! 🙄🤣 x

An American here (also an Anglophile and have 44% UK DNA). :). Please keep using your beautiful language. I believe most of us know and understand what many British terms are. Love your style and have learned enormously from your informative and inspiring videos. I have many pieces of clothing from British stores as I love dressing a little more dressy when going out than some of us here in the US. I love your style and always look forward to your videos and advice.

[@mmpersonalstyling]

Thank you! Will do!

[@jenastillero1005]

I'm binge watching your videos coz you don't tell me to be in one particular shape and size but rather to embrace whatever shape or size I am in now. Love, love, love!🥰♥

[@mmpersonalstyling]

Thank you. I’m so glad that this message comes across x

[@teresaj4876]

Thank you for mentioning the sizing! OMG I have been trying to buy from Amazon a pair of linen pants with an stretch waist. I tried the small, then the med, then the large - finally the large worked. I'm a size 8 to 10. In stretch waist usually can do a small. Then I ordered a different color and the large just fit. so very inconsistent in sizing. I would have laughed but these days with my older figure I feel a bit sensitive that my fit / trim self has changed. So I wasn't very amused. Nice video - I love the ones for older ( over 60 ladies ) but it is fun to see what the younger crowd is wearing too.

[@margarettaylor920]

The short trench looks lovely…so many great hints …thank you!

[@mmpersonalstyling]

Glad you like them!

[@stephaniehicks3804]

A couple of days ago, I was writing out the outfit i was planning to wear in the morning, and naturally wrote out the word "jumper". "Wait... how do I usually say it???" 😂 That's how much I watch your channel! Also, on the same note, I can't believe some would comment/complain about someone from a different country, speaking differently! 🙄 Let's broaden our world people!

Hello, I love your videos and learn so much from them that I have put into practice. I enjoy hearing jumper and trainer. I am a from Southern Californian and we always referred to trainers as tennis shoes. It didn’t matter if the shoes were specifically designed for tennis or the person never even played tennis. Once in a while I heard sneakers. Personally I enjoy the variety, it makes things fun and interesting for me. 😊

[@mmpersonalstyling]

Wonderful to hear, thank you x

[@angelakeep5238]

So funny! Myself, too! I grew up in Monterey CA from 1974 through 1984 (ages 10-20); exactly...*everyone called {them} "Tennis-shoes," all the time. Never heard them referred to as ""Sneakers"" except for when I lived on the east coast. It's still a funny word to me, "sneakers." I still call them "Tennis-shoes"LOL Obviously, for fashion purposes, I do now use/understand the need (of most fashion gurus) wanting to say 'Trainers'/'Athletic-shoes' (when suggesting ideal footwear for certain outfits) OR 'Sneaker'/Court-shoe/Low-profile shoe. It helps. But the *most-comfortable shoe truly is an actual 'Athletic shoe''/Running-shoe, in my opinion. 🤪 Guess I've been out of style for way too long..

I really enjoyed today's video looking at this year's Spring fashion. I know they're not very glamorous but I like to wear track suit bottoms rather than leggings mostly as I suffer with cold but as someone in their 70s (UK 10) other than when I'm actually exercising I steer clear. Finding an attractive enough pair of track suit bottoms in a modest price range is really tricky. I agree with so many other comments your videos are really, really helpful and fun....love it when I see your notification pop up! 🤩

I am an interior architect and have just had a thought about your videos, while watching so messaging quick. Have you tried moving the plant and chair to the opposite side, away from the corner. It would possibly give you another foot depth if you use your corner, we can then see your feet better. You could move the mirror back a bit, so in the video we can see the look from behind without you having to turn. Just a thought ….

[@LindseyLahr-e4c]

Hi Melissa- I ran across your channel while starting to research capsule wardrobes and it has been so helpful! I have been loosely following the capsule wardrobe for a several months and loved it during the Spring. Where I live we have been having a very hot summer. Due to the weather, I find I often have to wash a top almost every time I wear it and I am not layering pieces which makes it harder to create different looks. I have bought multiple staples like white t shirts, etc. Do you have any other tips for making a capsule work during really warm weather?

[@mmpersonalstyling]

I tend to focus on more singular items like easy to wear dresses for hotter climates or co-ordinated sets which when paired with a white top make multiple different outfits. X

[@debbie444]

Hi Melissa, what about a video on patterns and which ones will suit different body types?

[@mmpersonalstyling]

It would be a very short video - stay away from patterns if you want longevity in your wardrobe expect for stripes that suit everyone as long as the neckline is right for your shape!!

[@tesshendersonfotheringham9805]

Question/request below. - *Love* your content. REALLY appreciate that you read all the comments & respond when necessary. I’ll add my hat to the ring… Keep using the Brit lingo. It’s endearing & hopefully broadens some world views. We tend to get culture-centric. Question/request - Would you please discuss how to decide on the most flattering shorts length for different bodies? I’m just not sure how short length fits w recreating the hourglass shape. Thanks!!

[@mmpersonalstyling]

Thank you and welcome to the comments section!! Yes, absolutely I’ll talk about shorts length. As soon as the weather changes here and shorts are available to buy (and therefore I can show them). Generally speaking though always go shorter than you think as the more of the leg on show (within reason for age, event etc.) the better the leg will look. I really don’t like my legs but they look better in shorter shorts than knee length ones. Also, if your legs are shapely then make sure they’re not tight as it’ll make your legs look chunky!

We’re filming with a lovely new mum in a few weeks time so we’ll address that then but finding the time to go and get yourself ready-fitted is the best place to start. X

Thanks😄. I really enjoyed this one especially. I just wish I could buy these clothes in Australia 😢

Hi Melissa.i have real problems with shoes. I have two ‘fused ankles’ which means that I have no movement in either ankle. I can do a trainer if it has a bit of a heel and not totally flat. I can’t wear ballet pumps (too flat). Generally loafers are too flat. The current kitten heels are too high as I am best in 1”-1.5” heels and no more or less! It’s a real challenge to find something nice that looks good with dresses without it always being trainers. In the winter I can find ankle and knee high boots with the right heel height but summer is a nightmare! Diana

We could always help you source shoes if that’s of interest. Details are on our website at www.mmpersonalstyling.co.uk

I saw some great tan coloured low cork wedge sandals in Dune. Also, New Balance 327 trainers I'm told are really comfortable for painful/ problem feet x

[@physioontheriver7325]

@@debrawright9195 do you mean the Linnie’s tan sandals? They are not cork - couldn’t see any cork ones on the website that had a low heel.

[@lynnfox8376]

I think those ballet pumps that have a 1" heel and one or two straps look pretty for summer if you can't wear sandals.

@@physioontheriver7325 I saw them in store in England, but Linnie's are very similar. x

In America, the Gloria Vanderbilt Amanda Slim jeans fit great! I’m 5’4” and 175 pounds and they take 20 pounds off me.

When I saw that you announced your heights in this video it kind of makes sense how all the bottoms are fitting the way they should. I am a little over 5'8" so I guess if you rounded up I would be 5'9" and it makes it very difficult for one to find pants right off the rack and styling at that height. I notice that when I try to do styling based off of people that are under 5'5" then I end up looking kind of ridiculous. Could you do a video for us taller gals? Thank you! Love your channel!

[@mmpersonalstyling]

I’ve done lots already plus if you look for any which include Clare, my senior stylist then she’s 5ft 8 ish so that should also help you. I do a lot of the ‘come shopping with me’ videos with Clare…

Hi Melissa. Loved the video - can you please share a link to the grey woollen vest. Thank you.

I'm wandering if you lean towards white boots over black because your hair is light Melissa? My hair is dark and when I put white footwear on, I feel like it looks odd. I can get away with nude heals or white trainers, but white loafers and boots just look a bit strange on me when I pair them with darker colours x

[@CuratedClothier]

I think you're on to something. I like to wear a white/bone headband or hat if I wear white shoes other than trainers or anything lighter than taupe because my hair is dark. A bookend effect always looks less disconnected.

[@mmpersonalstyling]

Well black will certainly link in with your hair and we know in styling that if you wear two items of the same colour then it always look better. Your ‘hair’ and ‘boots’ would be classed as two items together so they’d definitely work. That said, we often use white on our dark haired clients too so both would work x

Stunning video! Thx Melissa. Can I ask for a “colour” video? Not sure what colours suit me 😢

[@mmpersonalstyling]

We have a colour course coming out!

[@lauriinkrott3606]

I do love your videos so much! Learning that jumpers and trainers are sweaters and sneakers is bonus content lol. I do have a question regarding the white T's in your video. Which T in the links is the heavier material? I prefer a heavier weight and can't tell by the links. Also, you could probably do a video just dedicated to the classic T! It is so hard to find quality, nice fitting classic T shirts that layer well and don't lose shape at the neck line. Thank you for all that you do!

It’s the one labelled ‘100% Supima Cotton Crew Neck Short Sleeved T-Shirt GBP 14.90’.
