I never really liked this old school - body shape system. It always made me feel inadequate with my inverted triangle body. Kibbe's system makes me feel great in my skin. It's all about celebrating who you are, not trying to correct it.

Dear Aly, would you do a video on what decade's fashion suits which body types best, and how to adapt it?? Like, the 50s hourglass silhouette clearly suits Romantics, but what does a FN or a FG girl do if she wants to use some 50s elements in her look?

I used to follow many different 'old school' fashion and style RU-vidrs, but now I feel like I don't agree or connect with most of them anymore. Hearing that I should balance out my wide hips, or make my round face look more oval, or try to look taller... basically all to try to conform more to the old stereotypical beauty standards just made me feel inadequate and insecure about my body and very aware of all my 'flaws'. This changed when I stumbled upon your videos and the Kibbe system. You helped me realize that there is beauty in all kinds of different body features. Thanks to you I learned to love and appreciate my so-called 'flaws' and work with them, not against them. Thank you so much, Aly!

I like style systems like Kibbe because it’s a nuanced way of having “rules” that are based on some concept of design elements and isn’t just an arbitrary style ideology. It feels curated in a way that you have enough freedom in it to pursue your own preferences but narrows the options down enough so as not to feel overwhelmed by choices.

"Basics are a good base, basically" My new mantra. 😆 Jokes aside, I love your work!

Being a romantic type minimalistic style just makes me look sad, lost and completely downgrades my essence... There isn't a single style that would suit all body types, that's why it is extremely important to find your type and dress accordingly. Thanks for a gread video Aly!😘

True. Some of the "High Class" bloggers take a "one size fits all" approach.

ALY ART 12 TYPES OF STYLIST MASTERPOST 1. Old school body shapes 0:22 - Techniques from the past e.g fruit. PROS - Correcting disproportion/asymmetry CONS - Doesn’t consider bone structure - Focuses on “imperfections” 2. Colour Analysis 4:26 - Colour science e.g. 4 seasons. PROS - Correcting colours on the basis of brightness/ashiness and colouration (warm/cool) is effective CONS - Can be applied to the exclusion of other vital style considerations e.g. grooming - Makeup etc can skew the results of colour analysis 3. 90s 12:08 - Fashion from the 90s period. PROS - Stimulus for women to consider style, providing historical basis CONS - Outdated, over-focus on being subjectively “interesting”, which has not persisted in modern times - “One-size-fits-all” mentality 4. High Class 13:41 - Focus on high society and looking wealthy PROS - Creates an expensive, well-groomed and put-together look - Uses timeless features to create a classic style - Can give women with previously little knowledge of grooming or style access to an effective, glamorous style, introducing them to considering the benefits of confident personal style CONS - Not suitable for all body types. - Can lead to overdoing it to achieve a certain “look”, such as excessive cosmetic surgery 5. Retro Lover 19:53 - Style curated from historical time periods. PROS- Due to solid base of historical knowledge, this can look very charismatic and expressive when paired with a complementary body type and personality. CONS - Not suitable for all body types (because historical style often flattered a single body type at a time) - Can appear out-of-touch or outdated 6. Shoppers 22:32 - People who professionally shop for clients, especially wealthy ones PROS - Modern and on-trend. Can give an extravagant vibe CONS - Short-life of clothes and trends leads to excess buying to keep up and single-use of expensive items - Little knowledge of fashion or style applied, with the focus being on “what’s trendy/cool right now” - Lack personal taste - Stylists can over-rely on personal institution with no back-up from reality 7. Minimalist 28:31 - Style based on the concepts of Minimalism; very basic, multi-use style e.g. the concept of a capsule wardrobe PROS - Very good basic wardrobe. - Everything works with everything else; you can put two items together without thinking and you are ready to go. - Good advice with regards to tailoring and fit. - Suitable for all body types - Time-conserving CONS - Unsuitable for loud, exploratory personalities who enjoy the game of clothes shopping and mixing and matching. - Can feel limiting or constricted 8. Young RU-vidrs 30:35 - Young stylists who gained prominence from vlog marketing and sponsorship, and who have a steady stream of different clothes/products to advertise/experiment with PROS - Can create an interesting, dynamic style that is ever-changing - Variety of styles that could conceivably suit all body types and colorations - Good for inspiration CONS - Not for people who want a structured route to style, or have particular style goals in mind e.g. comfortable, professional, particularly older women. 9. Rule Setters 32:04 - Big fashion personalities within the culture who dictate style by way of themselves and their mottos e.g. TV hosts, fashion editors, “a woman without high heels is like a cow without milk”. PROS - Their quotes and catchphrases can inspire women to consider fashion and style whereas before they were disinterested - Can have the effect of pushing people out of their comfort zones to embrace the ideals propagated by Rule Setters CONS - The subjectivity of their personal statements and ideas means that they have only a narrow point of access for style - there is no exploration or considerations otherwise. This leads to a complete unembracement of all the body types, personalities and otherwise that do not fit into their “ideas”. - Often inconsiderate of other basic, vital aspects of style, e.g body types and colouration. One woman will look good in heels - where another will look equally good in flats. However, that second woman is not taken into consideration. 10. Self taught 35:32 - Online or magazine stylists who research and consolidate style, may give various interpretations of it, and then propagate that to an audience e.g. Aly! PROS - Makes accessible to anyone concepts of style/fashion CONS - Large risk of error for Self-taught stylists to misappropriate/re-adapt information from the source for the purposes of passing it off as their own, at the consequence of massively overcomplicating or even misunderstanding the original information. - Large variation of quality. The end product can be too shallow or complex (as mentioned above, due to ST stylist changing terms etc to make themselves a new “source” of information. - All information has to pass through the subjective interpretation of even the most diligent ST stylist. 11. Porn Chic 39:00 - Opposite to minimalism. Focus on an exaggerated sexualized/glamorous style, which very often fits into a similar lifestyle. Latent from the 2010’s onwards. PROS - Can give the impression of a very groomed, expensive and glamorous style CONS - Lacks flexibility or nuance - appeals to a young generation with little knowledge of objective fashion/style, and so will ultimately disappoint the majority who do not naturally have PC attributes. - Can often appear without class or tastefulness. - Often relies on a very unnatural body image/lifestyle which leads to excessive cosmetic surgery. 12. Self made 41:49 - Self-educated stylists who take up styling professionally for clients, based on how they style themselves. PROS - Can help similar women look great due to the stylist having learned over experimentation and time what truly looks best on them. CONS - Not at all suitable for all body types or colorations, because the style is singularly that of the stylist.

Your sarcasm on "more interesting" is why you're my favorite youtuber 🤣🤣🤣

I feel like the further you get from your natural lines with surgeries (face and body) the less harmonious you’ll be able to look in general. Meaning your best looks will become less and less achievable because something will always be “off”.

Aly talking about early 2000s: crazy new rules Me talking about early 2000s: nightmare with no rules 😂

My favorite kind of fashion bloggers: 1) You! And other Kibbe-style bloggers 2) Minimalists. The best thing about minimalism is that those ideas can be mixed with any fashion style, and can also be followed to a more or less extreme degree. So, for me, I can have a minimalist wardrobe with my Kibbe lines. Others can take a look at their closet and get rid of the things that aren't working for them, without following any strict numbers, and that can also help with one's style.

kibbe has really helped me put a finger on why i don’t feel pretty anymore (not entirely). even though i don’t fit any of the types perfectly, identifying myself as a dramatic classic has given me a sense of direction and ownership over my own look and vibe again!!

I can't tell you Aly, how many times I went to a salon and I received the same haircut as the person doing my hair OR if a stylist was popular and known for a certain result, ,they weren't able to produce results outside of their 'box'. Now I just cut my own hair usually. If i do get it cut at a salon, I always prefer my own styling of my hair. I have an oval/ long face and I'm very petite but also curvy and thin. No matter where I went (I tried different stylists all the time trying to find a favorite) I always asked them to leave some volume on top. Otherwise I looked dragged down, gaunt, tired and old. But they would always straighten my hair with an iron close to my roots despite my request. People definitely have a habit of following blindly to their education and preferences. It takes a wise person to see the bigger picture. Your pros and cons really put things in perspective. You are someone I would trust. In my dreams, I hope one day you can style me. I would be honored to learn from your perspective!

The way i focus on your words and explanations, i never focused on my class lectures this much.

Really amazing content! Thank you! I was so curious when you mentioned the "high class" type. I have sadly been exposed to such a content, and although I dont despise it, I belive when style is ONLY used to get the attention/commitment/resources of a MAN thats so bad... I understand various life paths/chances/life circumstances etc. but when an entire look is chosen for that one singular focus... while completely disregarding the personality - that "style type" should cease to exist. My opinion. I am sending you kind regards

Mr Rogers advised us to just talk about the things that we love, that moves us. It just draws people to you, even if they never thought of that thing as a personal interest. Aly Art is a great example of this to me, I have never been enthusiastic about fashion and style before hearing her talk about it

I feel you on the makeup artists that do everyone's makeup the same. Anytime I'm going to get my makeup done, I specifically tell them about my eyes being slightly hooded and very round. That way they won't do the type of eyeliner that flicks upwards, and I tell them to make the liner as straight as possible.

I have a general question. I always feel like I don’t quite have it together with my appearance. Always have. Today, I watched a video of myself 5 years ago. I was stunning. Thick hair, tight figure, graceful. Why did I never feel that way in the moment? It’s 5 years later now. Will I look back in another 5 years to now and think the same thing? How can I be okay with the present me? I’m really struck by this.

I decided some time ago that I'm going to choose 1. Function over fashion 2. Colors are important so I look glowing 3. Figured out what compliments my body shape and that's all. I don't say this because it's what I think everyone else has to follow, instead it's my steady medium, as in it's who I decided makes me feel ME. I don't value fashion over me being happy. Fashion has to make you happy but it's not what makes you happy -- only you can make you happy. So don't improve something or copy someone like an Instagram model when it's not who you want to me. We first discover who we really want to me, and the fashion and priorities will follow behind. It's just my 2 cents. I've been watching Aly and she inspired me. I'm following what works for me. Thanks so much for these videos they help 😘

Soo cute in yellow!!😍i love the glasses!

Can you talk more about the essences? would love to know more from you!

I love you Ally! You have intresting content. But ”prawns 🦐 and cons” 😂😂❤️❤️

I have such an affinity for dry, European humor. It's an art form onto itself to be able to, in the same sentence, give one both a compliment and a teardown. 💚

Vibe of the woman, - perfect, love it

Aly could you do a video on hats for body types? with summer coming up it would be nice to know what styles work best for sunny warm weather or even the fall, spring and winter. Love your videos!

Aside from you my favourite fashion RU-vidr is Merriam Amani from Merriam Style. She uses the Kibbe system and has her own colour system which is ingenious! It helped me so much to understand and find my Body Type and my best colours and it's not complicated!

😍😍😍 You are THE best at this. I used to HATE shopping. I have ADHD - a blessing with clearity, and a curse without it, in any subject. You did the analysis part of fashion for me, so I could just absorb i, and skip to enjoying using my new clarity and direction while shopping. I was able to make confident decisions and got new clothes for the first time in EVER without the overwhelming choice overload. My open-mindedness and boxless thinking is something I like about me, but not when shopping, because I liked too many things and couldn't see why I couldn't make everything I "liked" work for me like I usually can. Now, I STILL like MANY things, but I can see what I like for me vs. what I prefer for others. That means PEACEFUL, TIMELY decision making, minimal second guessing that makes shopping FUN now. That is a GOD send for brains like mine. ALSO, the way you went about this video SHOULD BE THE template for videos on MANY subjects. I'm a multi-potentionalite, who is now an aspiring wellness coach, overcoming analysis paralysis and and impostor syndrome, who didn't know if, how, or where, to start creating content for sharing my wellness knowledge. THIS videos content structure IS the perfect way to dive into ANY subject, defining as many perspectice angles as you can. It establishes that you understand there are MANY contrasting IDEALS, and pros AND cons to them all, and that you are just diving deeper into a particular section, at THAT moment, from your current level. You can just say I know, have you seen (this video) where I discuss many perspectives? GREATNESS. Thank you for EVERYTHING you do, every peice of content you make. STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL VOICE TOO! 👏👏👏👏. I am an art, AND science, AND perspective APPRECIATOR too. 😍

I want a scarf to make my comment look more “interesting.” I’ve learned so much with Aly, been watching her for some time now and I’m glad to say I’m a Theatrical Romantic and shopping for clothes has become easier for me. Thank you, Aly 😘

I agree completely whit what you said about colors, grooming & avoiding your worse colors will do a lot more for you. For example, I know that bright colors make me look dead no matter how I style them so I just mainly own clothes with muted colors. For me, it is most important to look put together so if I want to feel extra pretty I'll wear my best colors but it's too much work to do that on a daily basis

I’d love to hear you talking about dresses for bridesmaids. Obviously people are different and often the one style and colour won’t be flattering on all of the bridesmaids, so what’s the best way to go about it so everyone looks amazing yet consistent.

I'm a big fan of stylists like DearlyBethany, Audrey Coyne, Fashion Over 40, Jenny Mustard or even sometimes School of Affluence (when I feel like having a dose of sarcasm/laughter). My own personal style is more Luxe Tomboy/90s Femme fatale like Tina Chow/Sade meets Jennifer Connelly/Rooney Mara. I find many stylists have almost IDENTICAL styles and recommendations but I have quite exotic/eccentric tastes so its not that helpful to me but interesting nonetheless.

My least favourite stylists are definitely shoppers and self made because they would always tell you how to dress in order to look more like this : for ex more feminine or more clean cut or more tall which might suit certain body types and lifestyles but I'm a Flamboyant gamine so trying to look taller is gonna do worse and making me look more feminine would make me look ridiculous The worst part of it I think is the idea that looking masculine is not a good fashion choice because as a FG I've always been told I look like a tiny boy with high pitched voice and I was always told to wear my hair longer and dress in pink skirts and wear more make up in order to look less boyish and it made me lack confidence and I always wanted to change stuff in my body( more boobs, smaller nose) but the only thing that made me feel great in my body for the first time ever was The Kibbe System and YOU Aly So thank you for making me realise that I can embrace my vibe what ever it is and feel awesome ❤

I rarely watch a 45 min. long video, but I love the way you talk about body tipes. Please do more detailed about every single tipe. I watched all of your videos, and still would love to learn more.

I find that doing things deliberately is really important to me. Seeing someone that consciously chose their aesthetic, each item they’re wearing, their hair and makeup. I always can tell when someone intended to look the way they do vs. when they wore a series of random things they like individually.

Listening to you is so therapeutic. I really enjoy the chrystal-clear analysis you make about any theme, remaining allways free, objective, honest and openminded. I love intelligent people like you😘!

Aly PLEASE make a video about rings for different hand shapes!!! I want my fingers to look slimmer and longer, please suggest ring styles and shapes! 💖

Aly, you make me feel happy with my body type, bone structure, lines and vibes! You do come across as authentic in celebrating different people, which some other stylists don't. Many of them could be self-made and they're mainly focused on their own style, body shape, personality or lifestyle. Thanks Aly for clarifying the different types of stylists. Very helpful! 🙂

I am very into thrifted fashion RU-vid videos, thrift hauls, that sort of thing. It is a hobby and a form of unique self expression to me. I like seeing how other people cultivate their own sense of fashion in this way too. Another awesome video. Ty for your great content! Be blessed, be safe.

The tyoe of fashion youtubers I watch: self-taughts, minimalists, thrifters, diy-ers/sewers, vintage/historic, costume. ☺️

I love your videos so much! Whenever a notification pops up I look forward to watching it and it’s one of the highlights of my day. Your way of explaining things is so detail and unique! After watching many of your videos now I understand why I feel so uncomfortable in certain types of clothing/hairstyles (even though other people say it looks good), and it looks/feels ‘separate’ to me. E.g. curly hair doesn’t suit me at all I feel totally weird in super frilly styles. I recently discovered that I feel better in more ‘geometric’ shapes

I love that her videos are informative and she touches subjects that people are very emotional about, but it’s never hateful. She’s always kind about everyone and that’s such an amazing quality.

12xyes! Kibbe’s theory is real shit. It changed my life. As a pure classic, I’ve always struggled with everything:clothes, make-up, hair because none of the trends suited me. Since I’ve discovered your content, I feel I found myself. And you’re right. All the other vloggers have a limited perspective (theirs) on style. Keep up the good work!!!We love you!

I really l9ve what you say about grooming Aly. If a woman is feeling down and low, doesn't have a sparkle, it's sometimes very clear that they could feel so great if they paid attn to their looks. Its OK to have a nice haircut, to put makeup on, particularly basics like good brow care, even skin tone and a little colour. Natural is lovely of course. But if you're feeling flat..take the time to work with what you have!and spend a little time on oneself.

I have very deep set eyes - my brow bone is very prominent. The lady who did my wedding makeup put thick black eyeliner all over eye lid and into my inner corners and my eye looked so heavy and closed I was so upset 😔 Moral of the story: a true artist should not do the same routine on everyone and needs to be able to recognize the different needs of every individual

I think your list is amazing and complete. I am personally not really into shopping, but fashion itself and style YES. Is that an oxymoron? haha. I am mostly putting effort into grooming, hair style and color, skin care and EXCERCISE. I am a big fitness girl & I personally think people should first get fit and than worry about hiding undesired aspects in their bodies. But I know that what you talk about is not only about that. I personally love getting these very observant, deep insights from you & I wish from the bottom of my heart that you become very rich and even more successful than what you are! I think you absolutely deserve it and I think people with this mindset and honesty and self-reflection should be on the top! Sending kind vibes from Budapest, Hungary

Great video Aly. When I was younger, I decided (mistakenly) that I was 'pear shaped' and all the magazine articles said I should be wearing wide-legged trousers to disguise my bottom half. I look TERRIBLE in that style. Now, thanks to you, i dress to my kibbe type (soft classic ) and I've never felt more confident or bought fewer mistakes 😊

This is the absolute best video. It is so psychological and deep, I really appreciate how you go into all the pros and cons of these stylist points of view. I totally agree with you, and I loved what you said about how a minimal wardrobe can be kind of lonely for a very expressive person! That is exactly true for me - and yet those minimal base pieces are the backbone of any flamboyant and creative wardrobe.

I'm really craving prawns right now

I like your videos of the past year so much, the analysis, gives a different light on many aspects. Thank you, I'm learning smtg new each time I'm watching you!

This video really helped me put into context different types of stylists and figure out that I can take a bit from each type and make it my own e.g. colour analysis + shoppers + self-taught + self-made. BTW your hair is looking great!

Hi, Aly Art! I so very much appreciate your analytical, comprehensive and approach to a person's authentic beauty! Makes so much sense.

Aly - Hi! I appreciate how you reach out to us as a human being. You are so right! There isn't a static answer to Art or Fashion. It is so easy to get into a "rut" and just keep dressing, and THINKING in a habitual manner. The truth is, we are always changing along with everything else that is in the Time-Space continuum! I like Fashion and Art because it gives me an escape into the Creative aspect of Life - which is very important for our well-being. Thank you so much for sharing your ideas and opinions! I know you are a true Creative, because you are interested in music, fashion, and art. You are not a "one trick pony" - and your audience benefits from your honesty.

I agree. Nothing is better than looking like you take care of yourself. Looking clean, groomed and healthy is the #1 way to increase your beauty. The rest comes after.

Just started watching your videos and I appreciate how intelligently you speak about fashion and styling.

I really love the topics you cover, Aly! On your channel you're always delivering your own original ideas or at least your personal take on an existing idea, rather than just regurgitating the same old rules/theories we've heard a hundred times. Will you be making more videos in the colour theory series? I would absolutely love if you covered "Would you look good with red/copper hair", as a continuation from the videos about blonde/dark hair. Thank you for everything you do!

I love how frank you are! Plus you're right.

I love your videos, they are so informative! Thank you Aly. One of my all time favourite stylists is Trinny Woodall. I love how knowledgeable she is with shapes and colour and her content is always inspiring

Hi Aly! Loved this video xx I found your 5th point interesting and was wondering if you could do a video on different decades in fashion and which body type they would work best/worst for. Would be nice to see how we can take style inspiration from the past. Very interesting to understand the different viewpoints and see what we can learn and use from each of them.

Love this video! Great analysis/critique, with education behind it, and your personality really spreads its wings.

ALY, you're wonderfully adorable! I'm really pleased about your appreciation for the beautiful human body and I love your fresh take on working With the body, and NOT just trying to cover or hide it.

Mind blowing content as usual. Thank you so much! Master Class material.

Can you please put up auto-generated captions for the hard of hearing like me?

There are many different approaches and I enjoyed your thoughtful analysis. You think of everything! You are able to relate to many different types and tastes, but with some, it can be so different from what I can wear that it's not for me. But often I will watch anyway because you can always learn something.

Wow! It's one of the best videos I've ever seen on youtube! Thank you so much for sharing so many interesting thoughts with us

I love your videos. There is much work and research behind it. Quality content. Fresh air in all this beauty ,,How to be perfect and happy“ content. Thanks

one of the best videos I've ever EVER watched on RU-vid!!

It is so enjoyable to listen to you and watch you Aly, what you said about fixed ideas was such a mature and interesting perspective, thank you

Girl, you know your stuff! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

My mom is some kind of dramatic, mayyybe flamboyant gamine. Wide shoulders, angular features. She went with the classic office style of the 80's, and could pull the boxy male suit style well. The problem is that I am a softer type, and she figured her style would work on me too since "classical styles work for everyone". Plot twist: no they don't. I looked like I was in a costume borrowed from dad.

This is year 3 of my ‘fashion journey’. I have gravitated towards different RU-vidrs over time. The ones I absolutely cannot stand are the ‘don’t do this’/you look terrible videos. I have found your videos informative and liberating. It is a wonderful feeling to dress yourself as you are and not what you think you should wear. BTW, I think your English is amazing!

you make such incredible and important videos

What bothers me in general about stylists, most I've met or seen online, is how they found what suits THEM, and sell it as how it works for you as well. It's what I like about the Kibbe system, and even the colour seasons, is that the focus is more on what fits YOU. Also that the focus isn't as much on this is what you should wear, but more understand the components that you're working with. I don't do my make up, and don't feel comfortable in it, but I once went to a makeup shop where you can ask for explanation and try outs. I went because I wanted to learn how to do my makeup if necessary. I looked like a clown when I left, because the woman just did to me what suited her. Definitely one of the reasons I stopped caring about make up at all (now I'm a bit curious again, just to be able to do my makeup if necessary).

You nailed it!! from time to time I follow fashion and design videos because I perform publically music, so I want to look good. I watch many different stylists and "influencers" (with some of them I don't necessarily agree, I watch them because I am curious what different people are interested in), and haha I must say that I remembered some of them as you were describing the types. Also I personally prefer your type of stylist, besides you it is Justine Leconte, both of you, according to me, are trying to look at styling holistically and objectively (which is very difficult) and you both are emphasizing rooting in natural and healthy looks, not trying to over-create anything on a body. Thank you for this and other videos, I really enjoy it!

For colour analysis I really like Jen Thoden with her approach, no seasons, its about undertone, depth and bright or muted colours

I really like your approach to beauty. You are stylish, pulled together but casual. No need to buy designer items, wear office style or get your "flaws" fixed. You`ve got an incredible eye for shapes and colours!

I was the self made minimalist before but now I'm transforming to self taught and I can totally see how imp it is to capture the yin yang vibe through your lifestyle. It was amazing have this ride with you. I'm always intrigued by you and how functional you are on a broad spectrum.

@Aly, I have a REQUEST: you mentioned early in this video how camera and lighting affect how something looks on us, how we look on camera. You have lots of experience with that - and I’d love to hear your recommendations /tips, or just pointers on what to consider, to make sure I can look well and together on camera. Now that many more of us are in front of a camera than before, for work online meetings as well as for personal interactions online, it would feel very relevant to learn these things from you. Thanks!

This video is so rich in information (background, redearch). There is so much quality in this video. So good, very very good. Thank you for that video. Really nice.👍

I have watched at least 10 of your videos now and I am very very interested in your topics-I have never thought about any of this stuff on this level, I’ve always thought about it but didn’t really know there were so much science to it- subscribed and ring the bell

I love minimalistic style but knowing bright colors suits me . Its not that im going full on with colors. Ive found a middle line , that balance between what i like and what suits me. You can be a shopper , vintage lover , minimalist , can love elegant style but blending with what suits u is the key. Follow what u like and what suits u . Balance it out.

Good to see you Aly! Glad you are busy! Hope all going well for you!

I can listen to you for hours. you are gifted. I am very into proportion and style.

Hey Aly. Would you do a Summer dress for the body types kind of video some time please 💕 you're doing a wonderful job.

I've been having a lot of fun learning about personal style the past several months! I honestly feel that learning myself in this way has opened up my life to a greater fullness. Vanity is a no go, but it's another thing to move throughout the world feeling fully myself and embodying what God has created me to be. I think it's a gift we should give ourselves if we have the time and the means! Some of us are beautiful like the rainfall, others like the Sahara desert, others like light beaming between trees, etc. It's stepping into our own unique construction and essence that brings out our wholeness and radiance in my opinion. Love your videos Aly!

You look so beautiful in that yellow and your glasses are perfect. I appreciate all the great information you give! ❤️

Prons and cons is the cutest thing ever

I completely agree with everything you said about colour analysis. I have had my colour and style ‘done’ and personally think that has helped me a lot. I love the system. The thing I don’t like about it though, is like you said, wearing particular colours with a bright lipstick just isn’t enough. In the style class they advise you make sure your grooming is on point, e.g. regular haircuts. My main gripe is that a lot of the stylists themselves look dated somehow, and just using their service doesn’t make you ‘stylish’ even though it helps. There’s one self-made stylist I found on Instagram that’s just ‘got it’ somehow. All her clients look stylish after seeing her, but I can’t put my finger on what the difference is!

Ah the 90s. The scarves. YES! although, I used to wear them as belts either with jeans, or Kimono style.

Hi Aly! Could you do a video on makeup for the cameras vs makeup for every day? I've never seen a tutorial distinguish between the two and I think two problems occur: 1. People wear too much makeup for every day. 2. With all the social distancing, many of us will try out talking to cameras for the first time (on Zoom or whatever), and want to look our best, but aren't sure how.

Loved your explanations! So insightful!

Very interesing video:) looking forward to your next video🤓❤️ for me personally, yours and merriamstyles approach has helped me the most.

Aly. The place where you are filming is great. You can continue. Not mandatory to move to a studio at all!

The thing about high class fashion is if you have to try that hard to look elegant are you actually elegant? Also high class fashion can sometimes look and feel so bland, boring and stiff. Like there is no room for individual style.

Aly, you are Art. Art of being honest, art of being of a real help, you are soo much on point. We have to discover beauty, in side out. As I see your work, it is all about that discovery. And it is contagious. :) hugs

Love it!🥂🥰 great info with all the "Prawns & Cons" 😃 adorable!! 💕. Think she was talking about Carol Braily- (colorist in need of grooming!)- for real!

It's such a great video, it contains many useful information, not some five minute countdown with two words of meaningless commentary. Nice job :)
