STOP LIMITING YOUR STYLE | Blending Classic + Natural Styles in a Capsule Wardrobe

[@alyssarudman]

What is you body type and style combination? How do you combine the two (or three) in your wardrobe? I would love to know!

[@allie3482]

Romantic ingenue - lots of floral and trying to find watercolor prints but much harder compared to the geometric prints

[@alyssarudman]

@alliew5253 Love that combination! And watercolor prints with a dreamy color palette would be so perfect 🥰

[@Maria.Aurelia]

Theatrical romantic with natural, romantic and ingenue essences. I have a baby face so I do ingenue makeup to enhance it and since it’s about small scale, I make sure my acessories is small. I love love love my dainty jewelry! 💎 and small handbags! I can’t do big lol. I always lean into natural outfits. The romantic comes in by wearing almost everything form fitted. Sometimes my pants like sweatpants (natural essence) are loose. I love love love sneakers. Not really a heels person. I loveee flats but it depends if I want to be more on the outfit I’m wearing. I’ve realized while shopping anything with such structure like blazers doesn’t look good on me, and it isn’t really casual looking on me which is what I mainly go for.I would describe my style as casual feminine.

I believe my essence combination is gamine - dramatic - romantic, I'm unsure of my body type but most likely it's dramatic (the clean cuts work well), or some sort of gamine. I try to stick to clean cuts, in either black or very colourful prints. cutouts for tops, high necks, tight crop tops with more loose bottoms and gamine accessories like hairbands work well for me. lace details, the colour bordeaux or similar shades, big floral prints, and eyeliner usually help with adding the bit of romantic essence!

[@alyssarudman]

@@Maria.Aurelia Your style combination sounds so cool!! I would love to see some outfits! Anything with Ingenue essence is just so fun for me, probably because my face is so opposite to Ingenue 😅

[@anathesunshine]

This is what I've been looking for. As a SN Its hard to find inspo for looking elegant in style of classic essence. I see a lot of boho, floral, drapes... I've been looking at 1940s styles too. Anyway, I love ur outside of the box take on this

[@alyssarudman]

I'm so glad it was helpful for you!! If you ever have any specific requests please let me know 🥰

[@Moniisza]

As a soft natural with classic, ingenue, natural essence and a soft summer season, this is so perfect, thank you 😊

[@alyssarudman]

🥰🥰🥰

[@Deem57]

SN with, I think, NIE or NR essence. In the fall I wear a lot of harem pants or easy jeans with peasant blouses or cable knit sweaters, all in autumn colours such as ecru, rust, olive green. And I have a shirt dress in camo print with embroidered details. Short boots or clogs on my feet. A hooded cable knit cardigan in ecru merino wool or a brown faux leather hooded bomber jacket. A few accessories. So easy for me to dress in autumn!

[@alyssarudman]

Omg I love all of that! It sounds like you have an amazing capsule you've curated for yourself!

[@Deem57]

Thank you. @@alyssarudman

[@alyssarudman]

@@Deem57 I'd love to see some of your outfits! Do you share your outfits on social media?

[@toniodejimi3905]

this.... this was it. this was the video I've been trying to find for years. natural construction with classic pieces that DON'T look frumpy? praise the heavens. this is amazing, thank you so much!

[@alyssarudman]

So glad you liked it!! 🥰

[@candellina6]

I was professionally analyzed as Bodytype ID: Soft Gamine Essences: Natural, Classic, Enginue Also, Professionally analyzed as Seasonal color palette: Bright Spring

[@elionae]

Always look forward to your videos! I'm neither classic nor natural I think but I love your approach to styling.

[@alyssarudman]

That makes my day! 🥰 What body type or style essence do you connect with?

[@lfcook629]

This video was meant for me! I'm a dramatic classic but love the natural essence! My yang influence is more blunt natural yang than sharp dramatic yang. I finally discovered that i can pull off the natural style as long as i have fitted shoulder seams and i wear a more narrow fit on my bottom half. I also enjoy a little more texture and earthy embellishments than what the typical description of a dramatic classic is supposed to wear. Your description of this capsule is me! Thanks so much for this❤

[@cathrynkk4582]

(SC + not sure about the essence, but I do love simple timeless pieces and rock style + color is soft summer) I love all looks and color combinations! Everything is wearable and interesting and you actually can buy it! Special thank you for providing links to everything you use in the video 💕As always, such a great production of a video itself. It is a perfect guide! Thank you for your work

[@alyssarudman]

So glad you enjoyed it! You made my day!! 😍

[@CandyMakeupGirl]

Love this video! Def learned something I wouldn't usually think about. :)

[@alyssarudman]

I’m so glad to hear that! What was your main takeaway?

[@ulrikeklein1890]

Thank you😊 that is for me. Greatings from Germany

[@alyssarudman]

I hope you enjoyed!! 🥰

[@andreacote6405]

Great video. Very informative. I need more tanks and halter tops!

[@alyssarudman]

You look great in them! You have great shoulders! 🥰

[@devyn9087]

Dramatic Classic with Gamine Essence!

[@alyssarudman]

Such a cool combination!!

[@kunojaga]

DC + ingenue. Lace, frills, velvet and jacquard are my friends. I end up looking like a Victorian child, though. Any advice how to look less cosplayy?

[@alyssarudman]

I would recommend analyzing your outfits to see if the "Victorian child" look is because your outfits include dramatic or mature elements that are contrasting with your ingenue essence, or if it is because the clothes themselves feel too youthful to you. Many times, ingenues look better in more youthful outfits and dramatic or mature elements can exaggerate a "childish" vibe because they are too contrasting with your natural beauty. If you have some photos to share, I'd love to help you! You can DM me on Instagram @waardrobe_

[@Marsolan]

You are so talented!! Love it

[@alyssarudman]

You’re so kind! I’m glad you liked it 🥰 anything you’d like to see next?

[@Marsolan]

@@alyssarudman mmm hard question. Since I am almost 60, I find it especially hard to find good recommendations that would suit older adults. Some cuts/ length etc no longer flatter but I still love and appreciate fashion and dressing your essence and body architecture. If one day you can offer ideas that would flatter bodies that fluctuate in size and some parts of the body just do not look well exposed, I think this would be fantastic!!

[@alyssarudman]

@@Marsolan Thank you for the recommendation! I definitely think a "modest" capsule that still has flair would be something that lots of different women of different ages and body shapes might love! Also, fluctuating size is such a common situation for women, so that will be a super interesting topic to discuss!!

[@Marsolan]

@@alyssarudman you have an amazing intuition for that I think you can do it so well❤️❤️❤️ thank you for considering. I

[@baccano5003]

That amazing ❤ Can you do classic + gamine? I find this is the oposted to each other lol 😅

[@alyssarudman]

I definitely think you can mix classic and gamine! Did you say your body type is Dramatic Classic?

[@baccano5003]

@@alyssarudman Yes, my essences are actually is ethereal, gamine and classic. But my body is Dramatic Classic. So I think is hard to mix all together. 😅

[@Juliannamonteverde]

Soft Classic romântico essência true summer

[@alyssarudman]

It's on the list! 🥰

[@livebynumber1733]

So good!

[@alyssarudman]

So glad you liked it!!

[@blessedwifeandmama]

Anyway to do classic and romantic ??? Please

[@alyssarudman]

I’d love to! Any particular color or body type you’d like me to focus on?
