Why Your Outfits Look Cheap (& How To Fix Them) | Fall Fashion Trends 2022

[@emilyevans6989]

Hydrogen peroxide in the wash can go a long way toward keeping whites at their whitest. Also, I wear a lot of black, so about once per season I prepare black dye and dye all my black pieces. (NOTE: I have not had good luck dying black jeans. . . )

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Wow love your black dye trick!

[@denisesmith-graye1621]

I have always wanted to rejuvenate my black clothes now you have given me incentive to do it 👍🏾

[@emilyevans6989]

@@denisesmith-graye1621 Some pointers, if I may. . . I use Rit dye in the bottle. I use my washing machine, and make sure the dye is mixed well. Make sure the clothes you’re going to dye are damp. Like through a rinse cycle beforehand. Put wet clothes in, they come out darker!

[@16stoneywood]

You just reminded me that I need to do this! ⭐️

[@malillis608]

Also using a washing product made for dark/black clothing helps keep the color. Ex. Woolite for dark clothes. Also turning your dark clothes inside out to wash is suppose to help.

[@33Jenesis]

Agree with all your points! I might add that a high quality handbag that goes with most of your personal styles is worth its weight in gold. I have been pretty women with good outfits ruined by a cheap, tattered, or not appropriate handbag. I know most people don’t like to change bags with each outfit therefore getting a good versatile one is paramount to looking polished, together, and stylish.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

So true Jen 👍🏼

[@mykarma4345]

Please please do a video on bags. Different categories like work, outdoors, travel, picnic, evening etc and ur top recommendations. Would love to pick ur brains on this topic.

What is your recommendation?

[@rewafrancisca]

I agree so much with the „it item“ - here in Germany it’s the typical beige and black striped knit sweater 😭😂 I was so excited to get mine from & other stories - it looks so well made and it feels so high quality. But now I barely wear it because EVERY girl has the same striped sweater 🥲

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Oh that’s so disappointing but I know that feeling only too well 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@jeannettemann96]

Another quite helpful video. Thank you Leonie! I agree with you. I have played with style and fashion ever since I was a little girl many decades ago. I have also styled celebrities in LA. So that said, I love to push the envelope and live on the edge. One more accessory or the wrong one, the wrong print on print, the wrong footwear, the wrong purse will make the whole outfit go from fabulous to trashed. What is the fun of dressing up if I played it safe all the time. I also like to wear pieces that would be hard to pull off. I embrace the challenge. All in fun and lightness!

[@CP-hz7er]

I agree 100% about wearing the wrong bra and the same goes for your underpants. The most expensive outfit will totally look crappy if your undergarments are not right. When I was in the fashion industry that was always my piece of advice to women invest in various styles of bras and underpants so your outfit looks seamlessly smooth. That's a great tip Leonie pair expensive with cheaper pieces it always works. Great video lots of fabulous tips and ideas :)

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Pleased you enjoyed this one x

[@candyce6233]

I have to admit I’m a Texan gal myself, whom loves big shopper slouchy bags. And I’m not alone. Here in my town the bigger the bag the smaller you look 😂 I just last week found the new gigantic black quilted YSL ICARE QUEEN OF THE SOUTH bag

[@Thestyleinsider.]

LOL that makes SO much sense too x

[@susanheller4532]

I have been LOVING that giant quilted YSL bag. It is such a versatile statement piece.

[@emilyrose9518]

I definitely think pairing color with black works so long as the black has a unique or quality texture (like lace or velvet) or if the color is a "pop" with a neutral or monochromatic colored outfit (like shoes or a bag). But I absolutely agree that a matte black with no texture can zap the fun out of color and absorb the outfit. Terrific note!

[@Thestyleinsider.]

That's a great point Emily - texture definitely helps to make it work!

I’ve been collecting Lilysilk for years. Their quality is unbeatable, their colors amazing and their prices are affordable. They will last for years.

Great video, Leonie! I agree with all 16😊. I could never understand the purpose of dupes. What is the point? For me - I definitely overuse black with color. But when it’s just a one color sweater, say, royal blue, it’s ok to wear black slacks, right? Idea - with the holiday season approaching, maybe a video on not boring festive dressing ideas😉?

Love Lily Silk, it’s where I buy most of my clothes. I just got a super-flattering navy silk LS dress, with pleats above and below the waist, it makes me look 20 lbs. thinner. I also got a light beige wool jacket and an ivory cashmere collared, button front shirt, just the perfect sweater weight for my mild winter climate, and perfect over a silk top. No brand affiliation, just love the brand, and I always use your discount codes.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

That's great to hear Kimberly. What is the name of the navy dress please? I'd love to check it out. Thanks x

[@joesdi]

love this video, I am a big fan of cashmere and 100% wool. And one should really make time to care for them.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Me too but they definitely need more TLC right?

[@gaelle4328]

Go to a second hand/ goodwill in a good neighbourhood for the more expensive pieces and use the money you save for good underwear, and those pieces that for your specific size is hard to get second hand.

[@sharonfarnsworth3325]

Another good video. Thanks!! I am glad you advised everyone that better clothes take more maintenance! Also I have found to wash dark clothes inside out helps as well as dark wash laundry 🧺 detergent & only put in a dryer literally few minutes as dryers will face darks. I pull all seams straight when I take out of washer & it really helps with wrinkles.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Great tips Sharon x

[@carlsenlifeafter60carlsen11]

I love lily silk I own at least five or six pieces. I really wanted the pajamas so I bought them in navy blue with the white piping so beautiful. I gave them to my husband and said this is my birthday present so here you go. My birthday is in December just before Christmas so he’ll give them to me then. I’d love to wear them now but I wanted to make it easy for him. Can’t wait to put them on.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

What a great idea!

[@shsvc15]

I wear lots of black as it’s one of my best neutrals being a dark winter but I see lots of folk wearing black who just don’t suit it and would be better in navy or browns or warmer greys. But I do try to wear black with either neutrals or prints with black in or wear black with colour and white which is great look I think! Agree double boob is never a good look 😆

[@danielled5883]

[@annewiseman9983]

Great video Leonie! Hmm I still think black can be worn with colour. I ve gone both ways ie with black or not but I still think the colours can work with black. For eg. A black midi handkerchief hem dress with small white stars pattern with a dusk pink moto jacket. Totally agree with your colour limit to 2 with a neutral.

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

I wish Lily Silk offered more elastic-waist skirts and pants, and in more colors. I just got my first custom-sized item, the khaki green cargo joggers. The biggest standard size is a 12, but I need a 14 waist and have size 10 hips, so I ordered custom, for no extra charge! They came out perfect to my measurements. Next time, though, I will add an inch to all my measurements, including length and rise, to get a more relaxed fit, the custom fit is classic, which I like for a dress, but I like baggier pants for lounging around in.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

That's great to know the custom option is there and it's worked for you Kimberly. Great point though to add a little extra for a roomier fit! x

[@thabi_d]

You absolutely have an eye for style, you so right about the boots 👢, never could put my finger on it but you've actually given words to what I was feeling!

[@deniseoates7147]

Very excited to see you loaded a video today. I really like when I come across a button up shirt with 2 breast pockets while I am thrifting. I really like your shirt. You are so right about having some good quality garments and accessories but the problem with that those usually come with price tag out of some people budget. I have lucked out on finding what I consider forever items during some of my thrift trips and will purchase these because they are going to be a major ingredient in styling for me. Well, looks like you are in good company with Lily Silk clientele. My bra's are pretty pricey so I guess I better check and make sure they still doing the job. I mixed print my first pattern outfit for Sunday and I really enjoyed it, it was the working of the subtle dots on a brown blazer with a plaided pair of pants. We need to really work on the upkeep of items we purchased, because I recall watching men and women in my life polish, mend, repair to prolong their usage. I do have some fakes because I like how they looked, and they were at the thrift store. I thrifted a belt with the interesting buckle, and it ended up being a Hermes dupe and I also got a LV bag one time while thrifting because it was only $9 (I like the style of it). There was a time back in the day selling of dups were really popular and the people would show up at hairdresser shops or in a parking lot (piss over here let me show you something). LOL! I am so guilty on the dirty smudge lens wearer because it seems for some reason soon as I wipe them, they get smudge again (my boyfriend gets so frustrated; he keeps wipes in his car). I now invested in buying wipes packs in bulk at my nearest Sam's club. Dark clothing is easier as far as basics because I hang basic garments to dry and don't want them in the dryer and therefore look fresh, but those white items I don't know what to do because under the same care they still get dingy (I still wear them). Thanks for sharing and blessing to you and all in the days to come.

Hi - I totally agree with the tip on trying to stay clear of the high street "it" item! That is easier said than done though lol. Even though I have a perfectly fine striped sweater from a few years back, I feel like I NEED a tan and black one with a v-neck and a collar. So as I was listening to you, I thought , hmm that's my guess on the "it" item you might be referring to- BUT- then I saw a pic of the exact sweater in your next tip. So... I would really like to know your opinion on what the item is for this year. Pretty please!!?? :)

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

I had more than enough of black with colors in the 80s! I just don’t like wearing black that much anyway, I think it’s a bit of a cop out to wear black all the time. I don’t think it’s elegant or chic, as people insist, it’s just easy, because 80-90% of the clothes for sale are black. Nor do I think “it goes with everything”, it doesn’t really look good with any colors because it sucks the life from them, as well as from our complexions. I’d much rather wear white, other light neutrals and pale colors, they’re so elegant and flattering. White really does go with every color.

To get a pulled together colourful look get something colourful in a pattern and pick up one or two colours from that in the rest you are wearing or make one of those stripes, polkadots, checkered, or perhaps even a leopard. This however needs better quality so goodwill is your best friend or if you buy some pieces fast fashion avoid extra ruffles, look at the buttons if there are any and if you think you are going to change the buttons will you really?

As a knitter, watching you agitate that wet sweater around minute 14 made my heart stop! If you're washing animal fibers, you want to agitate it as little as possible when wet to keep it from felting together. You'll lose shape and stretch and create a much denser fabric by scrubbing the fibers together (think something more akin to a wool coat rather than knitwear)

[@simoneelli6394]

If someone is wearing a cheap outfit and is adding a dupe, that makes it looking even more cheap. Why dont they see that?

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Yep I agree :(

[@we-need-to-talk-about-it]

I hate the expression “update” in terms of physical objects. It makes the fact that you actually throw it out and buy another one instead lose its significance. If we update our apps we don’t put extra strain on the environment, we don’t create waste, but any other “update” is just a nice way of saying “throw it out”, “buy a new one”. Obviously it sounds better and makes you feel less guilty but I think feeling too little guilt about our consumer patterns is one of the main reasons we have environmental problems. Leonie, I know you talk about our fashion choices being more conscious but some of these expressions still convey that fast fashion disposability of garments that put such a strain on our environment.

I seem to be the only person who is concerned about the cruelty aspect of silk. I’ve read that silkworms are boiled alive in the production of it. If anyone can tell me that is wrong I’d be very happy. In the meantime I’m avoiding it. Not everyone will care about the silkworms, but I hate the thought of anything suffering. Of course wool is probably not always ethically produced either, and it’s all pretty complicated. 🤷‍♀️. I certainly hate polyester and synthetic fabrics too. It’s not easy to be kind!
