I genuinely don't know how anyone could have anything negative to say about your channel. Being plus size I find it impossible to dress classy when all of today's clothes are so revealing. Your style is so timeless and beautiful and I feel so much more comfortable going out ever since I started applying your tips. Keep making the world beautiful love💕

You have changed my life for the better.
Sounds extreme I know.
I’m a 61 year young woman.
Lived in baggy clothes for years.
Watched your videos. Invested in a capsule wardrobe and I’m enjoy not having to worry about what to wear .
I’ve used this Mentality to other aspects in my life.
By being organised I can now say, I feel less stressed, more in control and I don’t look too bad either
Thank you 😫❤️

Lydia, I've been running my own business for 12 years, and if there's one advice I can give to anyone is, stick to your guns, your true self, gut feeling and your style. You're never going to please everyone. You're doing great, keep going 🙂

[grazsts]

Don't bother with those people. I started to dressing better since I started watching your videos and applying the tips. Thanks!

[Kengitay]

I absolutely adore the fact that you not only say how you would style it but also how you wouldn't as well as showing it. Don't listen to the people that tell you otherwise because your followers know how much more work that means and we appreciate it !

[patriciadunmore]

Lydia just ignore the nay sayers, they are just negative individuals. Your followers love what you do.

[tanyamohile]

Ive never thought you were being preachy with the dos/donts, I love how you break down what is ‘working’ or what is not. For people like myself, who are not in the fashion industry but love fashion, it helps so much to understand why sometimes an outfit may not be looking as great but do not understand why! You have a fantastic way of simplifying things and I really enjoy your content ☺️

Lydia, you’re doing such a great job with the channel. Im 63 and I love it. Of course, there are some styles and trends that look too young for me, but overall, can find tons of styles, tips, and trends that I do love and will wear. Just ignore those who come with negativity. They’ve clearly got nothing to do. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the half tuck and have been using it a great deal. You’ve really helped me with my appearance with your balance, proportion, and sandwich dressing as means to create a chic, sophisticated look. Thank you so much ✌️😎

Great video, Lydia! Appreciate how you showed what kind of boots go with trousers. I tend to just pair my trousers with pumps, so this was real helpful. I found your channel last year and starting loving trousers again because of you. If I may make a suggestion, please have the "dont" outfit beside the "do" outfit (in a split screen) after each clip. Seeing them side by side would really emphasize the contrast/ changes you made.

[marycahill]

Hi Lydia! I love your videos, you really know fashion and styling. I follow many stylists and you are the best! I worked in fashion for many years in my younger days, and never lost my love of wearing beautifully made clothing that makes me feel great. I’m 65 and my 27 year old daughter follows you too. You’re helping each of us stay current and updated and age-appropriate. Thank you.

I love how you talk about balance. Thank you for making me realize how so many of us wear too many tight fitting pieces together and how balancing with relaxed pieces makes it look souch more chic.

[christinezwicke]

"Dos and don'ts"...please use it, Lydia!! It's concise and most English and ESL speakers understand precisely what it means. I sure do. That said, I would ask those who disagree to come forward with their perception of what in the world could be more clear...AND, and, and be more universally understood. We're not talking life and death or planet-wide extinction here! So, tick tock people let's hear it...I'll wait. 😉

[sparkofjoy]

I love that you give us the reasoning behind all the do’s and don’ts. I think that is key when you know why you want or don’t want to pair something

[vjs]

Just want to say, I used your sandwich thing today, a bulky jacket over a skirt, was going for little ankle boots, remembered your vid and went for thicker knee high boots to balance the outfit. I'm a lot older, but my style wavered over the last couple of years. Watching your videos has reminded me of my simpler un cluttered style, so thankyou for that , keep doing what you are doing

[hannahrobertson]

I think you chose exactly the right wording in your intro... if you don't agree with certain tips, don't take them on board! You help so many with your fantastic fashion advice, and that's all that matters! 😘

[MarianTHickey]

Question, you are creating balance by adding a coat, what happens when you go indoors and take the coat off? I try and make the indoor outfit work too without a coat.

[Slivings]

I’m so enjoying your videos. I just discovered your channel. There is something for everybody. I’m in my 60s and finding lots of tips here to make dressing easier. Thank you! 💖

[karenartis]

Found your channel during lockdown in 2020 and am so happy I did. I love all of your videos/recommendations. The color of your top is absolutely stunning on you. Thank you for providing beautiful, and fresh content.

[tootybrgr]

You give absolutely great advice. I am not really into tight revealing clothing and many influencers mainly showcase that look. I want to be comfortable and clean looking when I wear my clothes. You pull off every look effortlessly!

If people object to “Do and Don’t videos, then they shouldn’t watch! The clue is in the title after all🙄🙂
