    I don't get all the complaints in this video. If you're a long-time subscriber, you should know her style by now - which would, I assume,be very similar to yours hence you subscribed. If you just came across this video and you dont like it, move along it's not for you. Yes I know freedom of speech blah blah blah you are allowed to disagree and voice it out sure. But she's not holding you hostage or making you pay her your hard earned cash and there's also this thing called freedom of choice. Choose to ignore the video and watch other stylists that suit your style more. My point is - stop with all the negativity. She's not hurting anyone. Just because you are free to say what you want doesn't mean you should.
  • I am a boho gal so I liked the boho styles and would find different ways to style the bold prints. Each to their own. It's all about wearing what we love and feel amazing in.
  • @flowersfrom7311
    When choosing a summer dress, the most practical consideration is to be able to wear it with my regular underwear! :)
  • @dawnpotts5941
    Great video Lydia! Of course everyone’s choice of clothing is different but I’ve learnt from you that by picking something more basic or neutral means you’re able to dress it up or down, or change the look by adding a belt or different accessories and that way people don’t realize you’re wearing the same dress!
  • @lingfengge6666
    Some of the dresses you critise look beautiful to me, and some of the dresses you like look ugly to me. It's all about personal choices.
  • @Ceez8961
    I used to dress in classic style especially in the corporate years but now that I’m older and removed from corporate life, I switched to boho.
  • @cherylhoang
    Floral dresses in summer are timeless. Just choose the right color combination and silhouette and you'll be fine
  • I admire your fashion sense. Watching your videos now in my mid 40s. I thoroughly enjoyed my younger years wearing prints, florals, full on colors and styles that suited me. It's been a few years since I've started to wear neutral colors and classic styles because personally i cannot tolerate too florally dresses now. I'm treading the thin line between dressing my age and trying not to look older than my age. Classic styles tend to make one look older.
  • I love the combination of bold block colours (bright orange and bright blue especially) - they look so good on me! I used to like muted neutral colours until one day I decided to take photos of all the combinations I could get of my wardrobe and then from those photos I realised how bad I looked in all those neutrals. I guess we really have to understand what works best for our unique selfs. I like Lydia's take on the quality of details, shapes and materials though. But you definitely can curate a minimalist style without giving up on colour 🧡💙

    love, love these WHAT CLOTHES TO AVOID BUYING SERIES, please do more like these one- we all need to live more sustainable, our planet is burning from our overconsumption excesses. thank you LYdia for these videos.
  • This is definitely one of your greatest videos, Lydia! Thank you for showing out these dresses and commenting so clever & detailed on each. I honestly think we havr too many outdated or weirdly designed dresses, especially on sale every year.
  • Great choices Lydia. My favorite was the Karen Milen poplin white dress. I love all of her pieces so much. Ty!
  • @NJ-hn7vw
    Great video Lydia. Fantastic tips to build capsule wardrobe ❤
  • I love the way you articulate so carefully what aspects of clothes cheapen it etc. It makes me more evaluative about my clothes.
  • @alibol2343
    Lydia I have to say something WHITE IS NOT EASY TO WEAR; It attracts the dirt and marks so easily almost like they are drawn to the colour!
  • @tolde
    I have the same taste. I dont have much money , but you can also dress nice and look stylish on a low budget...i dont buy a lot but i buy nice peaces with good materials...
  • Ohhhhh Lydia youjust Proof to me why i follow you. You are the best . No One can came even closer. Shirt dresses are My CUP of tea 😊 i own four. Two are light blue and horizontal stripes made in popeline with long sleeves and the third is light bege with stripes and long sleeves also 100 percent cotton and finaly a white One 100& linen with long sleeves too. Why AM i telling u this ??? Because i have them almost 5 years ago and the looks impecable and yes the are timeless. I live by the beach on Ericeira - Portugal since 5 years😊 and i bought them at Benetton in Cascais where i lived Before moving in with My husband to Ericeira. Till this day people asks me where did i buy them. And because i AM not a tennis shoes kinda person i wear them with My Tods Mocassins. So 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 well done .❤
