Taking care of your skin, nails, eyebrows, haircut and perfecting the "no makeup" makeup look can make a difference. Please consider making a video about weekly maintenance/care. 👍😊 Also, taking care of our shoes/handbag (cleaning, repairing) is important.

@vivianhamilton616 5 лет назад

Great tips, thank you.

@jacquiscottagelife7746 5 лет назад

I second this suggestion! Would make really helpful videos.

@meilinchiang6951 5 лет назад

Healthy eating is also important, it does make a big difference.

@PatriciaMuirMaestroQ 5 лет назад

Taking care of what you have not only saves on replacement costs, it shows respect for your investment and respect for yourself. Great comment Edna.

@lenamahayni6216 5 лет назад

Great ideas 💡

@reneemarais431 5 лет назад

Smell nice, no chipped nailpolish and clean shoes.

@katherinemargeson8082 4 года назад

A new tip I found is using bonding powder to fix threadbare spots in wool.I just bought a gorgeous 60s camel coat from Poshmark that has a tiny threadbare spot and the fabric bonding powder worked. You shave off some pills, cut them up finely, roll into a ball, iron, done and done!

@clairekurdelak2913 4 года назад

Katherine Margeson this is amazing! Looking it up on amazon now!

@honeybdream 4 года назад

What stores sell that? Maybe Fabricvile or Michaels?

@nancyharris9909 5 лет назад

Alyssa, your first tip about having gratitude is so true...I love that you included that as a way to look expensive! Thanks for sharing such excellent tips that I can put to use in my everyday life.

@irairod5160 5 лет назад

All hail the FIT! I have to alter the length of all my long sleeves, and often take my pieces to have princess seams added to follow my curves, which are very pronounced...it's an added expense, but the difference is incredible.

@TheSteffie59 4 года назад

Love your tips, go with them all! I am finding "my style" now in my 60s, little personal touches to jazz up outfits, ie scarf, or brooch or something hair wise. I'm a wig wearer of many years so rarely have a bad hair day and I can change up my daily look to suit my mood/outfit! I love French chic, always avoided black as thought it didn't suit me, but I've now decided it does and it's so sophisticated! My tip would be to invest in great bags and shoes, which elevate high street items. Love fashion but in a definite classic style. Some of my clothes which I love, are years old but I look after them well. Thank you! 🤗😍😎

@apender01 5 лет назад

I think vintage jewelry and great accessories can update any outfit. It's like changing throw pillows and a rug to update a room without investing in new furniture. Great tips as always!

@evelynglick5717 4 года назад

Loved and agree with all these tips. I would add a great smelling fragrance and a good posture. No slouching! Walk like you are proud of your body

@kobrien7945 5 лет назад

Good posture and looking up conveys confidence in how you present yourself to others.

@lfkilcran 5 лет назад

Yes....well groomed and polished is always a way to look elegant. Columns of one color in a long silhouette does have an elegant look. I like framing it with sweeping lines of silk...which can have a small pattern. Hair....it is an issue at times....but nothing like a beautifully made fedora or other hat to elevate (literally makes you look taller) to get that long, fluid line of pure elegance

@bettylu3208 5 лет назад

Love your tips! Adding a fragrance always elevated my mood, and makes me feel more put together!

@heatherframpton9693 4 года назад

Prints with a solid scarf or solids with a print scarf is an easy way to look put together even if feeling blah or in a hurry to get out of the door. I call it "Garanimals for Grownups". 😁❤️

@sallygator22 5 лет назад

The information I've found on your channel has helped me curate my sustainable closet. Thank you! I wish A-list celebrities, like the Kardashians, would promote re-wearing or re-working the clothes they already have in their closets. It would set an excellent example for many people.

@dinaoreilly9483 5 лет назад

I think you nailed it honey....bottom line is we each have so many clothes already and need to in fact be soooooo much more GRATEFUL than we are for the lives we lead, the opportunities we have the extensive wardrobes already brimming over in our closets.....if you feel you have nothing, then de clutter, donate and become more thoughtful and focused going forware but buying more is rarely the answer.....great job as always sweetie..enjoy Italy..

@tobeytravels1861 5 лет назад

All your tips are spot-on...especially the one about caring for your clothes. Thank you!

@TheZeyre 5 лет назад

Thanks for the thoughtful Sunday video to go with morning coffee! I look forward to your autumn trends. Love the gold accessories. Hair - something to aspire to. Thx Alyssa!❤👜

@zabindhanji 4 года назад

Thank you. I really enjoy your approach. I have so many beautiful things but I find myself constantly shopping for things. But you remind me and show examples of how I can fall back in love with what I already have. Thanks!

@AlyssaBeltempo 4 года назад

I'm so glad you like this approach :) it's exactly why I started the channel! Your comment makes me so happy! Thx for watching!

@crystalh1402 5 лет назад

There are a few videos with a similar title that I’ve watched but this video provides tips that I can actually implement!! So many of your tips have been amazingly easy and little by little my wardrobe is coming together and I’m loving how I look. ❤️

@MalloryEagar 5 лет назад

I love your positive joyful demeanor. I've been feeling guilty about the tailor bit- I know it would make much more of a difference than just trying to buy new things.

@marylohman4463 3 года назад

I really love the addition of gratitude and confidence. You are so inspiring! Thank you for the beautiful example you set in both your content and your presentation!

@chickenleg002 5 лет назад

Have you done a ‘body types’ video or something where you point out iconic looks & the body types that frequently pull them off well? I am getting ready to scale back my wardrobe & would like to do a better job of dressing my ample apple body type. Any resources you could point me towards would be helpful. ( Like a boyish figure looks great in that straight 60s inspired suit, or an hourglass + DVF style wrap dress is heaven)

@andib3017 5 лет назад

Love that blouse you are wearing! And glad that you added the part about gratitude!

@louiseeady5296 3 года назад

Hair, nails and your smile make a huge difference but in the end the biggest tell-tale signs are your manners and speech.

@laurabasconcello4379 2 года назад

Hi Alyssa! This subject is so interesting that I must add a few things that I think are very important: shoes must be clean, fixed and in good shape; bags: the material and color must be in good shape too. Nails: should be not so long and at least, with nail polish. Hair: I agree with you. I add: no roots, a haircut and a healthy hair. Kisses from Buenos Aires!! (I'm watching all your videos to be updated)

@tsvetephotography 5 лет назад

Hey, i really enjoy your videos and just wanted to add something that crossed my mind while watching. I gave birth a year ago and am still fighting to get my belly back where it was before :) recently I have finally bought a piece of quite comfy shapeware and it's had a profound effect on how I look and feel in my clothes... Now I wear my clothes with much more confidence and ease which I think is the main reason why we perceive someone to look rich... So, i just wanted to include that tip to the list :) keep up the great videos :*

@mariadankova9033 5 лет назад

What shapewear brand can you recommend? A fellow mummy will be grateful. 😆

@susieqmartin2746 5 лет назад

Looking out together even in jeans and a T-shirt can make a big difference. Being kind and smiling endears you to people! Good video!

@lesliecarnes8775 4 года назад

Always dress as if you’re going somewhere better!

@bebop54 5 лет назад

yes , wonderful advice !

@kendrabean606 4 года назад

I agree with this. I wear scrubs to work bc I have to but after work I've changed some habits. If I didnt have anywhere to go I used to just continue to wear the scrubs after work. Now I change right away into something I love no matter if I'm just picking up my son from school.

@reallyrho1101 4 года назад

Loved todays video Alyssa. Thankyou for sharing those tips with everyone. Bev xx

@marionkine 5 лет назад

I can't agree more on self care (nice skin /hair/nails/feet ...). Going for basics made of good fabrics. Understanding what really fits you and bei g confident. This, in my mind, makes me feel a million bucks

@sig9girl 5 лет назад

Self confidence is everything! You can have on an outfit from the least expensive store, but if you know how to put yourself together, and walk with your head held high... 😍

@lilianhoulind723 4 года назад

I like,picking items from a trend...that matches What i allready have,lately a boucleskirtsuit...love it and Will do so for years.

@TIL_TheIntentionalLife 4 года назад

I always enjoy your videos, very informative !

@bosvigos9165 3 года назад

I love this advice. As someone who has been wearing clothes for 60+ years, I have a good idea of what suits me. One thing, neutrals on me, if that has to mean beige in all forms, will never happen! Colour means personality and that does not have to equate to trashy. Something that lacks, is wearing a slip to stop clinging clothes. Why does nobody do that anymore?

@dianascott2798 5 лет назад

Alyssa, Can you recommend a brand or model for a clothes steamer? Thanks.

@jeanninelaila4228 2 года назад

I love all these tips, Alyssa! Thank you☺️

@kathyesargent9088 5 лет назад

Attitude comes from within thats works for me!

@McSwan0709 4 года назад

@fashionandluxury101 5 лет назад

Great tips. I always try to add two accessories to look polish. I agree with everything except tying your shirt in a knot or rolling up your sleeve. I think it depends in your age and where your going. I never saw a woman on 5th Ave with her shirt tied in front and sleeeves rolled up and said " oolala she looks expensive " lol. Great video as always

@perrywalton2464 5 лет назад

Alyssa, you looked polished and chic in this video! Great topic and nicely done video.

@BodaciousBeverly 5 лет назад

I absolutely love the top you have on! I had one almost identical back in the '90s, and, before that, a dress in the late '70s, with the same neck and sleeve shape and details. Classically beautiful! These are excellent tips. Thank you!

@jenntruong6023 4 года назад

I love thrifting fashion items; Great ideas in this video!

@chandlersreloved8751 5 лет назад

Alyssa Because of you I look at clothes totally different. Trendy is not even in my vocabulary. I am slowly getting rid of items that don't make me happy. I always shop at Thrift Shops. I donate everything to Goodwill. It just makes since!!!

@susanasese3981 4 года назад

Excelente. Muy buenos consejo. And also I can practice english.

@sarahterry2140 Год назад

@silviasauc8570 5 лет назад

Brava! Love the video!

@olagerta8199 2 года назад

My short: 1. Shifting your mindset that you need a lot of clothes 2. Fit - also adjusting a bought piece 3. Wrinkle free - steaming, ironing 4. Neutrals - find own lighter ones, classic prints 5. Structure - clean cut blazer, trousers 6. Styling - what you already having, accessories 7. Personal touch - sth own 8. Good hair 9. Smile :) My adds: 1. Matched colors - Knowing own color palette 2. Cared nails 3. Leather things - bags, shoes 4. Cared basic pieces

@ericabertels 2 года назад

Def fit and comfortable over everything! I think we all made that mistake when we were young. Taking care of your body, nails and hair is my first priority! Even just brushing your hair and trow it in a bun, big sunglasses and some jewelry and you’re good to go! I love your style and personal touch! 🥰

@sylvievicenza179 4 года назад

I love the last point: SMILE! how many times have I seen well put women with sad faces. I do not wear a lot of makeup but I always wear a smile ;)

@heatherframpton9693 4 года назад

Yes! 😁

@Ivymoon 4 года назад

Hi Alyssa! I'm changing part of my pants! I dye a burgundy pant, that I ad red to dye! and really improve that garment, looking more polish finish, and still use it more often then when I got it 10 years ago! yeah! I made it!(I was kissing myself). And like you said a little change or alteration in your garments can improve the choices to combine with other tops. Thanks girl for that advise, it was a courage issue to improve you garments

@querida1809 5 лет назад

Thank you for the upload. You look amazing 😉. Happy mind, happy body. If you are happy you will radiate that. Take time for yourself. You cant be good to others if your not good to yourself.😊

@gabymiranda5593 5 лет назад

As always another great video Alyssa thank you💕 and nothing can make you look more put together and confident than taking good care of yourself and a big beautiful smile😊😘

@mary-annebourke4907 4 года назад

Clean shoes, and the French approach to take off one thing before you leave, oh and always check the mirror front AND back before heading out

@freefallingintograce4634 5 лет назад

Alyssa! Great tips 🥰 for me, it's classy, chic, thoughtful, playful, and creative. I also love the look of freshly steamed clothes, and i love the process of ironing or steaming too - it's like meditating and appreciating your clothes. Alyssa, a practical question... I have the same steamer, and it recently stopped working, even though it's fairly new - have you had any trouble with yours? do you have any tips on reviving it? 🧐 Thanks! N

@carolegeddes998 2 года назад

If you put vinegar in your steamer to clean out the scale it will work much better and last longer. 🙂👍

@sharonmcardle3561 5 лет назад

Love your videos. It's inspired me to shop my own wardrobe. That said, I'm heading to Ottawa on holiday in Sept. Where would you recommend I could find some re-loved / vintage or sustainable shopping options? Any tips would be great.

@seriouslyinsanediva 5 лет назад

yes! great idea. I loved Ottawa in September!

@sunnivabrynnel5019 2 года назад

Great video, thank you! What steamer would you recommend? A travel friendly one maybe? thanks! x

@christinamanucy8037 5 лет назад

Great tips! One thing I don't do that I"m sure would help is taking care of my nails. I distract away from them using other parts of my outfit, earrings, hair, etc ('cause I just don't want to bother with my fingernails), but I do know that your hands can make a big difference in an overall impression. Oh, and having good quality, clean shoes that aren't scuffed up.

@preston6814 5 лет назад

christina manucy I don’t like to spend time on my nails either, but a quick way to maintain your nails is to file them, I keep them short, push back your cuticles and then put on clear or a sheer nail polish. I like mademoiselle by Essie. It goes on smoothly without any streaks and chips aren’t noticeable and it looks great with any skin tone. 😊

@kathyesargent9088 5 лет назад

How about a wardrobe tour❤️Love your videos😘

@jainakriti21 3 года назад

Hey Alyssa..i admire your style a lot❤️ please make more videos on styling one garment in 20 styles.

@AlyssaBeltempo 3 года назад

So kind thank you! Will do! Love making those! xx

@ruthacuna4385 5 лет назад

I agree a smile is huge to make you feel like a million bucks!

@Saraa191 4 года назад

Great video! 😍

@livelovehula8268 5 лет назад

I really like you and appreciate your tips and “look”. The four minute Shop Tagger AD, was a complete drag though. Certainly understand the shout out to your sponsor but could it be cut down to just 1 minute or less? I only have a few minutes to begin with

@connieb5153 5 лет назад

In addition, I did not like shoptagr and I had to unsubscribed them long ago.

@maaikevandijk-bokkers944 5 лет назад

Shoptagr hardly works where I live (Europe). And it keeps Sending very old updated on clothes to my emailaddress that have been out of stock for 2 years now. 😩 I of course skipped through the whole sponsored part

@mysticfox1563 5 лет назад

Maaike van Dijk-Bokkers, it doesn’t work well in the states either. It sends me alerts on things that had no price change and sometimes glitches to show everything in nonsense currencies (not just not showing in dollars but saying one thing is pounds and another euros without the conversion being correct when they are all saved from US sites). It did help me get a basic pair of boots I needed at 70% off that I couldn’t have afforded full price though.

@mariagraziacapitani8217 4 года назад

I am using “Stylebook “, it’s a sort of virtual closet where you add your clothes to match them in the best way (instead of grabbing the first thing you find available around the house), best 3euros ever spent on an application 😂!

@shannaveganamcinnis-hurd405 2 года назад

I just always just scroll past those ads. Easy.

@patriciasaldanha3165 3 года назад

Smiles are not always appreciated by all and sundry so I have learned to reserve my special nasty scowls for certain folks - fortunately the occasions for these rare "mises-en-scène" are few AND far between and it works !! - Like a charm !! - But rest assured I am a natural "smiler" and your videos do make me smile🌞🌟☀️ so thanks for your great grooming tips 💖❤💝

@elizabethwaldorf9275 2 года назад

Any old thing looks elevated with a good pair of shoes and a good bag. They don't have to be a designer brand, just well made and in good condition. Personally, I can't stand accessories with obvious designer logos.They are self-aggrandizing, which is not classy. And I agree with you about a lip color - a natural looking color that enhances your natural coloring. BTW, I LOVE your videos. Great vibe and useful information.

@Meechka 2 года назад

The one thing that has helped me feel more confident in my clothing is losing weight ha ha. It seems anything looks good when you’re thin I’ll tell you’re thin. And then you find out you really have particular preferences. The ketogenic diet has really helped in following this slow fashion style

@malgorzataw9536 2 года назад

Hi Alyssa, I love your channel so much 😃😃. Waching and hearing your films help mi to resist shopping😋

@AlyssaBeltempo 2 года назад

@nicolestenson2641 4 года назад

Hi, Thank you for all the great tips! I am on a minimalism journey and your tips really help my goal to not shop new for at least 1 year. I was wondering whether you let me know what the brand of the hand steamer is that you used in this video? Many thanks, Nicole

May I know what brand of steamer do you use? Thanks!

@heathervalentine8222 5 лет назад

hi Alyssa thanks so much for those tips. Its great to be reminded. I will look into the shoptagr and use it. I love TheRealReal and bought so many items from there. However, the shipping to Australia is prohibitive. Do you know of any other vintage and preloved websites that offer cheaper shipping? Or can you lobby TheRealReal to offer a cheaper, slower shipping service? I have contacted them but they haven't replied to me.

@angiemcdermid4845 Год назад

I didn’t wear makeup during lockdown so I had lots of time to improve my skincare. Now I don’t need as much make up. Same with going grey and getting a good haircut- less fuss.

@heatherframpton9693 4 года назад

@queenme02 4 года назад

What do you suggest if you find yourself falling between sizes esp seasonally due to age. Im 44 and have had three kids. I find myself buying more bc of my size, so i feel like i keep two wardrobes im never certain which items i should buy larger or more fitted

@HackYourBloodSugar 2 года назад

I LOVE THIS! I love how you wear your button-up shirts unbuttoned. Will you share what you wear under them to give that combo of bare, but when you see it, your unders look really classy or feminine?

@francinepuskarich5755 5 лет назад

I love that.....SMILE. GREAT TIP

@lose999 5 лет назад

Did you get your blouse on vacation? It show off you suntan nicely. I'm not sure looking expensive is as important as looking like I care about being well groomed. Ironing, tailoring, taking care of garments, etc. is essential whether you want to look expensive or not. IMO.
