[@catherinegardner8407]

Very good. A suggestion please. A lot of women work. When we are at our jobs, we do not have the advantage of a coat or a handbag to add or accent an outfit, nor do we need a heavy blazer as outerwear. We need a look that "stands alone". Many thanks.😊

[@RosaLisa1844]

I second this excellent question 😊👍🏻

[@joanp105]

Of course, yes. We don’t wear a colorful, warm scarf indoors, carry a handbag, or have an outerwear layer. Outfits must generally be for inside in the winter, or once we reach our destination.

[@GeorgiaMontgomery-i2i]

No worries everyone! I have a ton of cashmere sweaters from the thrift stores, I bide my time, keep checking and there they are! Just got a lovely grey striped one, a midnight blue one from the men’s department, in all colours and sizes….. no one has to pay full price for a cashmere, which should NEVER be dry cleaned, washed in a machine on gentle or by hand, hang on a rack to dry and pull off the pills when damp or get a cashmere Comb which is so cheap! There is always another way, like wool pants, no one wants them, but they are easy! And Warm, and Classic! Happy hunting from Georgia in BC

[@kathykikta7316]

Ellena, please do a video on color combinations for the autumn coloring woman. Warm browns, rust, gold, camel, olive green and warm ivory are great neutral colors for us. A basic wardrobe suggestion would be amazing!!!

[@pilarq7886]

Quick idea google 3 of those colors for house decor ..i like mauve so i google mauve decor

[@bellaheblan8479]

Ellena, thank you for your style advice! I am always learning something, even though I’m almost 70 years old! This video is packed with good information, and I’ll be watching over and over! I Love the outfits, the tips, and the recommended guidelines! Your videos are so helpful! 😎👍🏼❤️

[@charlottemilam2733]

Love how you break down the "complicated" to a realistic system of putting outfits together ❤

[@ruthkiwisoka680]

Love Love Love your videos❤❤❤ I just found your channel, and I could watch so many more. Finally someone who loves color as much as I do❤ Thankyou!

[@bugubozkaya2794]

I really appreciate the work behind! All the theoretical content enriched with visual examples and whatever im looking for, i can find it in the description ❤ Thank you whomever makes this happen!

[@lynclarke6184]

Thank you so much. I’ll be better dressed this year than ever before because of you. I love everything you do. Xx

[@oliveradimitrijevic1843]

Me too.❤❤❤❤❤

[@lynclarke6184]

Ellena is the best stylist on KZbin, she has changed my life.

[@zella3321]

Mega thanks, Elena! You've made my life simpler and elegant. You are a blessing to many.

[@mjk6519]

And still I learn something new every time. Thank you once again, Ellena🙌🏻

[@kathysteele3071]

Thank you for your exceptional tutorials. I always learn SO much and am inspired to work on my wardrobe!

[@sharonswanson8964]

Yes! Wardrobe Engineering! You are a treasure I have recently discovered on KZbin! My husband nervously said, "You're not going shopping again?"😬 I say, "Not yet... I'm learning to use what I have!"🫠

[@flower-ss2jt]

Really enjoy how clinically you explain how to get the best out of your clothes. Nothing fluffy or sentimental, just facts. So informative. Thank you.

[@Tamara_bkkr]

I absolutely love your videos, you have such a great style! 🤩 Could you make a video about scarves, where to get them and how to style them? Yours are so beautiful and really complement your style! 🤩🤗

[@KHX274]

Oh that is a fabulous suggestion!

[@lorrainehoward2212]

A video on scarfs would be super. How to wear and style them would be even better. Love your videos.

[@lauraescobedo3426]

Another very useful and beautiful video. Congratulations Elena

[@rebeccakeck8497]

I always learn so many new ways of putting together looks that make me smile. Thanks and keep up the wonderful videos.

[@saraphillips15]

I love how you incorporate color with natural and still look stylish and elegant. You're one of the best I've seen in Long time. I love recreating all the outfits you show us. Now I'm so inspired and love fashion even more.

[@jdmom29]

I felt like I took a college class of styling!🙏❤️👍

[@christinesnowden4562]

Can't wait to do a wardrobe edit and find out where my gaps are! Thankyou🙏

[@suzannedesylva3805]

You are an engineer and a wizard and a great teacher. Just wonderful videos - so much to learn and put into practice.

[@debradykstra8703]

Hi Ellena, 🌞 When I first came across your channel I thought you were way out of my league. But I keep returning. Even though I have not yet mastered all your principles I notice that month by month I seem to look better and better! I want you to know how much I appreciate that you truly educate us, and how you have boosted my self esteem. I always thought it was my body that was the problem, not my clothes! Thank you for making it fun to get dressed again. ❤

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

I love your use of silk scarves, I think they add so much to an outfit. I’ve worn them for forty years, they’ve always been a part of my wardrobe. I wish I could get that one of yours with the white background, but it’s sold out. I just got the most beautiful one ever with that deep ruby color (from D&G), in a Baroque pattern on my favorite white background (dark colors near my face don’t flatter me).

[@drstephanietan7940]

Love your tips and outfits Ellena! Would you mind making a video on how to style silk scarfs?

[@SandraYoung-kh7ic]

yes definitely a video on scarfs please

[@annie-cy4tc]

You are so brilliant and rare! Thanks for encouraging us to look for beauty in this crazy world!!

[@Terry2A]

I don’t mind sponsored videos. Even if I can’t afford most, if not all, of the items, I learn much about color combinations. All of these KZbin creators have to buy the cameras, do the editing, get the clothes and more. It costs money and if they can recoup expenses, more power to them.

[@debbies7487]

Love this video! Thanks. Starting to build a capsule wardrobe and this helps!

[@dm-31024]

Thank you. Lovely. Maybe a deep dive into each of your five points? With a video dedicated to each of your five points? Also enjoyed the artwork wardrobe connection video. Maybe more of those? Outfits inspired by paintings 🖼️ ❤️

[@weeleelee5843]

I'm amazed by how much information and detail you can pack into 20 minutes! Thank you so much for all your work. You have transformed the way I wear colour.

[@olgaolszewska1545]

Elena, thank you so much for your videos! ❤❤❤ Could you tell us more about body types and what to wear when you are an apple?

[@kn1159]

You are unique and best of the best among fashion bloggers.

[@amymcginty6634]

Thank you for this video. You look lovey in everything! My opinion is that oversized tops & bottoms make the wearer look too big. Even very slender people look much larger in oversized clothes. Of course, tight clothing is even worse! Clothing that skims the figure & also has some flair looks good on almost everyone.

[@debbie444]

Hi Ellena, thanks for your well structured videos ! Can you do a series how to structure a capsule wardrobe for different colour seasons and undertones

[@serenakoleno9338]

Thanks for your hard work to help us. I just put together a bunch of ribbon in the colors I plan to wear. Now when I go through my clothes or when shopping I will know what is going to fit with everything else. I too have found cashmere at the thrift store, but I don't go very often, so it was worth getting two on sale during black Friday sale. The whole point of capsule wardrobe is very few items of best available quality. I have a very casual life, but I can still incorporate your ideas. Even a trip to the grocery store or doing laundry is nicer when I look good. Dollar Tree baby shampoo is great for cashmere. Very gentle. So grateful for you.

[@SnowPrincessSally]

I love that green knit scarf. I loooooooooove wool scarves. A sleeveless dress + flats + knit scarf look is my favorite outfit. In fact, I leave my scarf on all day even though it gets uncomfortably hot (totally worth it).

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

I love the collared, V-neck Polo sweater more than any other style and got it in multiple colors while they’re available. I love an open neckline and this is a very classic style. The shorter the sweater, the better, in my opinion, I like them just covering my waistband.

[@ErinCRN]

Your videos are so useful! Thank you!

[@QLTDEB2011]

Ellena, I absolutely love your videos!! You are a fabulous teacher and very inspiring! You explain things very clearly especially when you talk about color theory. Thank you!!

[@LizzieChristian-p3i]

I love watching your videos and find them very inspiring. However, it would be nice if you could show some slightly less expensive pieces

[@isabelgarcia3805]

When i watched your video wow ..am bettee dress up everytime i have breaktime from my being housemaid ..my employer they said wow you look nice dressed up..thank you so much ❤❤❤❤

[@lose999]

Yay!! Great sponsor. You deserve this... I love your content.💙

[@Annette-ou2bo]

Thank you Ellena for your great content. I recently found you and subscribed.

[@jayneweaver8695]

Where can I purchase the gold (rectangle) signet ring, left hand, minute 4:06 w/the cable knit beige sweater, white trousers? All of your choices are so chic, love your hair and style, thank you for the video's!

[@reginaschwartz4524]

I love your channel! I have watched almost all of them since I found you. Looking at my wardrobe, I actually have quite few color pieces I can easily match, I didn't know how to complement my outfits, waiting for more videos!

[@zsuzsamagda5138]

Dear Elena, thank you. Great video again! Could we also have some inspirational ideas for the festive season coming up? If you think it is a good idea... I am going to the Opera soon.

[@fannymavraganis2582]

I like the colours you use. In my wardrobe every bottom fits every top. I have endless options. However, it is always nice to view your videos because you have a fresh approach to everyday outfits. Thank you!

[@annemariemattacchione3696]

You are so creative. Love your videos!

[@lynclarke6184]

Amazing and makes perfect sense. Thank you my wardrobe guru.

[@ruthgrady2824]

Great fashion video with wonderful suggestions and ideas! ❤

[@putrihidayat2661]

I love your explanation..... am a Fan.... Luuuuv

[@olgad775]

Елена, вас приятно смотреть на любом языке❤! Спасибо!❤ Ваш контент, как всегда очень высокого уровня!❤❤

[@UnderTheGreydar]

Another excellent tutorial, Ellena - thank-you! I am a new student at Ellena Hue University 😉 This video helps me immensely, because I am transitioning from a stay-at-home role into a professional role, and I was overwhelmed with the task of overhauling my entire (very casual and outdated) wardrobe to suit my future career and lifestyle. I am on a very tight budget, and your expert advice will help me save a lot of money in avoiding mistakes and regrets. You've provided useful information in an organized, simple manner that anyone can put to use. I've gone from complete dread to excitement as I curate my wardrobe, thanks to you!💖

[@lilia2414]

Спасибо, lovely wearable style ideas!

[@gailbrown3118]

So helpful, thank you. Makes coordinating much more effective ❤

[@colleencc7]

I notice that you wear a lot of “oversized” pieces and looks in many of your videos-and it looks great! You make it look casual and elegant without looking sloppy or lazy……and I would love to hear your secret for this! You appear to be similar in size to me but when I choose oversized looks they are usually too long in the arms or just look overwhelming. I would love to know how to be able to make pieces like this work; I hope you will consider discussing this in the future.

[@RosaLisa1844]

Wow same for me!!! Please help us Ellena ☺️🙏

[@cherylrb00]

This is chef’s kiss.. very informative and easy to follow information!! Also purchased me a handheld pocket color wheel to make like easier❤

[@Karencainefly]

FANTASTIC video. Unfortunately, I am a size 14, not a 12 so I cannot wear the Lily silk white pants and some other things you showed. Where can I buy similar items that will fit my frame and size?

[@Natalia-pc7fm]

Ellena, you’re very entertaining and spot on in your fashion choices. I see my clothes differently now, and have started wearing and combining pieces from my mother’s collection she no longer wears. Thanks!

[@romadambinskiene3670]

Great as always❤

[@parveenamlani8645]

I am so glad i discovered you. I am always learning from you! Thank you

[@maureenlangerfeld8489]

U have clear organized descriptions!

[@lubalitau3986]

Dear Ellena, thank you so much ❤beautiful.

[@tarah3227]

Another amazing video thank you

[@twistedyoga7432]

great video! one of my biggest problems is i have many more pants than tops. i love funky style pants, colorful pants, and jeans. but tops - ugh i don't often find many i like. i tend to wear an extreme amount of white tops - t's, tanks, button downs, etc.

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

I have several of these items, Lily Silk is one of my go-to brands. I have the knit dress in “white” (it’s really ivory, protein fibers like silk and wools can’t be aggressively bleached to true white).

[@sepidehakhaveissy7692]

Very good tips Where did you get your long light gray coat?

[@barbrokarvhag3225]

If you don’t like the navy blue, can you go for a green instead?

[@JJMolina-qi1fm]

I have to start my wardrobe from scratch 😂 thanks for the inspiration

[@mireyaharo6977]

Thank you Ellena

[@LorraineCarson-b4p]

Love everything you put out here! I was so surprised by the amzrepo crossbody bag. love it! ?

[@Natalies_Network]

I love the editing!

[@ingridoverman3621]

You are amazing, I Love all your videos.👍⛵

[@Divinenubian]

Great channel I just subscribed because I enjoyed the information and format of your show. Meanwhile I'm trying to style a Christmas green leathe fendi inspired baguette bag and decided to use my coco brown wide leg set with cream Chelsea boot and cream fluffy jacket I hope it looks right!

[@dorothyj2151]

So so so so helpful!! Thank you!

[@birdsandflowers2528]

Thank you!!

[@MaheliaVliese]

Love this

[@Baguio_gal]

Thanks for the useful tips! I’m definitely adding more bold colors in my clothing choices because of you! However, in this video, I can’t read the notes coz of light font on light background.

[@helenmartin6895]

Want to know your lipstick and nail color,and brand.

[@ingridoverman3621]

You are the best.

[@geewisner]

I cannot locate your sweaters on Lily Silk's App. Only found cable knit on regular site.. Can you assist?

[@mariabranez592]

Dear @ellena, What about shoes?

[@sanjuktaroy5774]

You are amazing! Thank you!

[@Farmerbettyboop2]

I have been trying to figure out how to put together a capsule wardrobe with interchangeable pieces that will go a long way. Took a close look and discovered that I have a lot of black and white with red thrown in and some oranges. So, I’m thinking that’s a good start. Should I bring in more color accents?

[@ninok5719]

Love your videos very informative ❤

[@kyleguersey5004]

It would help alot if you tell us your height and body shape please.

[@KHX274]

Her height is in the video description. She also wears a size 8 in the h&m jeans, also in the description. Hope that helps!

[@sherrydance144]

What brand is your tall black boots from? They have low heels, but are not riding boots. This is what I am looking for!

[@HelenVaughn-un6de]

I love Quince.

[@xjxy1213]

Love your style!

[@miriam8246]

Ellena, where are the black suede boots from, you wore with the knit dress? They are so classic and sleek and I love them !

[@kyleguersey5004]

This is an excellent engineering video that clears explains what and how much to have. I am requesting you address some things please 😊 I am an autumn color way. I cannot wear black. No matter how much makeup I wear it completely drains ALL THE COLOR from my face. I got all glamorous and then after i put on my little black dress someone asked me if i was sick not feeling well 😢. What am I supposed to do? All the KZbin stylists always recommend black! Please help me ❤

[@KHX274]

I never wear black - just don’t like the color. Have you tried Navy for an elegant look?

[@olgaolszewska1545]

Yes! Navy instead of black is a very good way to have safe dark. And did you try dark chocolate brown, or a very dark bottle green?

[@claudiaschinagl450]

For me Anthrazit works perfekt! Not many items are offered in Anthrazit....but it's worth looking for it.

[@nancylaponzina8272]

This was terrific ... really enjoy how you approach designed capsule wardrobes. Do you suppose you might be able to create let's say 4 capsule wardrobe basics, one each for the four basic body types: Apple; Pear; Rectangle; upside down Triangle? Dresses are hard for me to wear as a basic and perhaps for others. Your dress is so perfect for your body type and easily accessorized/combined. Thanks for producing these videos!

[@julias1923]

HelloElena. Thank you for a new video. Could you share your experience about wearing your Yuzefi bag? I’m thinking about it, but I have some hesitation about its handles. If I put a lot of thing, which I need at the office, will the handles cut the shoulder? They look so thin )0 thank you in advance

[@misssunshine7650]

All this advices are also good for mid size ladies?

[@lydiabond5393]

Now.. how many shoes? 🤔 Depends on your weather I guess.

[@alamedadanceparty]

As many as your closet and budget will support 😅🧐

[@joanp105]

Are the sweaters whose sleeves are over your hands, made that way, or are you wearing a size too large for you?

[@OpheliasEssence]

🥰Thnk you for sharing 🥰

[@irenalib9370]

У вас потрясающий Английский, очень богатый. Произношение тоже на высоте 😍👀

[@VBoo459]

I really struggle with this concept of capsule wardrobe because....for example, I NEVER wear blazers or button down shirts...so those are money wasters if I were to invest in those pieces. I wish I came across someone with a romantic feminine classy style.

[@rebamoon4965]

I dress capsule to save money, elevate my look, and simplify my days. Once you begin, going back to "outfits" is not an option. I was blessed with a lightweight cashmere sweater from Neiman Marcus...in classy black. A thrift store sleeper for about $3. Less is more when you follow this video. Learn what accent colors look best on you. If it's pink, then add accessories, scarves, and blouses to add a pop of color. Always keep a black dress handy, which offers endless styling options. It's always preferable to wear a few pieces of fine quality jewelry/watch, than several matching cheap pieces. Save for a statement watch like Movado. Go for one stunning ring instead of multiple low quality rings. Same with earrings, bracelets, belts, scarves, and even shoes are essential to elevate your style. Overall, capsule dressing is fun and easy. I'll never go back!
