Using the 4 Style Pillars to Help You Shop Better 

You can tell how much the warm red brings your skin to life ~ what a glow!

Yay! This was a great example. Would love to hear later how you felt wearing it out and about and different ways to style a piece to bring it "back" to your style statement.

Yes, more examples using style pillars, please! I must add that it was truly surprising when you said you are a Bright Spring, but seeing you in the right color made all the difference from seeing some of your other outfits from previous videos.

Thank you, Gabrielle. This was really helpful for me because you used visual examples. It made it really clear.

Ahh the satisfaction of actually seeing it on you was a great addition! I’m new to the 4 pillars concept but I think it’s going to be really helpful seeing multiple examples! Thank you for taking us along that journey

This is so helpful to avoid over shopping! I tend to get super excited would love if you used your subscribers pictures! I would totally donate mine. Especially as a dark skin woman

The dress is so beautiful! 😍 Yes more of this would be very helpful

Thank you for such a great video! I've been confused about the differences between lines and shapes , so this is a great explanation! Also... Your new bright spring dress is so beautiful! 🤩

Loving your post-Bright Spring content. I think you looked beautiful in the Deep Summer colors but the contrast really highlights the harmony of the Bright Spring palette with your features because even with very minimal makeup they make you look like you could be readily photographed at the Met Gala! This dress is really lovely on you and its versatility for styling options seems like it's a great choice.

You look so good in the new dress😍🥲

Now makes sense why you always looked so great in an Icy mint shiny top you use in old videos, it was more like a BW but since is a sister palette was close. Love how you look in your BSp palette, you shine! Your skin looks like glass. You are beautiful anyway ✨

This is soooo helpful! I also had an "aha!" moment when you talked about the weight of the line. You are simply stunning in this new dress, and I love how your content is developing!! As you are collecting some parameters, I'd like your help. I'm experimenting with the style statement "a bit relaxed dramatic classic". I'm going to the U.S. this year to do my PhD (very excited!) and I like the smart casual vibe, not being that constricted. I think that dramatic classic is my Kibbe type and bright winter my color pallete. Maybe you could consider my example to style a buttom down shirt in a solid color with an interesting black jeans (appropriate to commuting by bike) and interesting flats. Best regards for you and your Brazilian father!

I had a bit of an “ah HA” moment there when you were talking about weight and how the design and construction can accentuate that. I have a few summer dresses that suit me well but they kinda annoy me and I’ve never been able to pinpoint exactly why. They have a lot of fabric in the skirt and are very long which is great. But the skirt is very gathered at the waist and while it does create a lot of vertical lines down the skirt portion, it’s too soft. I realized while watching this that I do like pleats and gathers, but when they are bolder, stronger, more defined, and fewer of them. A few boxier pleats vs hundreds of tiny gathers would make the dresses PERFECT for me. I can still make them work, but I know now what to look for to avoid that disappointment when the garment isn’t as good as it could be for me. It has me thinking if it would be worth it to try altering one of them ….. 🤔 The red of that dress is bang on for you. It doesn’t look startling like a bright colour does when it’s the wrong one. It looks totally harmonious and natural. The style suits you so well, too. ❤

I would love to see the shapes with plus-size examples

Great analysis!! Appreciate it!! I had a bit of hesitation with color of the first dress. Seems to have some blue undertone and too cool for spring type. No?

I love the dress you chose, it’s clear how it fits your pillars and it looks amazing. I would love to see more of these. Do you want people to send you their pillars to use as examples?

Please do more of this. This is so helpful.😊

That dress 👗 is stunning on you! I see you first bc everything harmonizes with you. Color is the first thing the eye notices, not shape, not pattern, not line. Think about a stop sign. You see red first, not octagon. I didn't realize that you hadn't had a color analysis when you were dressing as a Dark Winter (neutral cool). I couldn't figure out why something wasn't quite right. 😕 Now the Bright 🌞 Spring ✨️ colors (neutral warm) really make you shine! The Bright Spring has the warm yellow of Spring "neutralized" with the cool red of Winter. I know it's hard to up the chroma. You feel too flashy at first bc not used to it. I dressed as a Soft Summer but turns out I'm a Light ☀️ Summer and had to go brighter. Still a neutral cool season but the cool blue of Summer is "neutralized" with the warm yellow of Spring. Versus Soft Summer where the cool blue of Summer is "neutralized" with the warm orange of Autumn 🍂 It makes for a totally different color 🎨 palette.

Yes! Please do more of these. Seeing the process in action is super helpful. Learning about the weight of lines alone was a huge takeaway for me today.

Even though your old red dress wasn't in a bright spring color, it still looks really good on you based on all your pillars. IMHO both of the new dresses (the pink and the red) seemed too bright on you. I thought the old red dress harmonized with your skin tone better.

Hi! I don’t know if this will help you at all but when I got color analysis I washed my clothes that were close to the right color with my undertone color (you could do blue or yellow) and it changes the tone of the garment to fit your color palette better! If you have anything you love that you can add yellow to (like that house of can dress) it would probably work really well!!

Yes so many more examples!!! (Also secretly rejoicing that you’re bright spring because now I know I’ll understand the colors so much better)

Love the colour on you! I knew the dress shape too will be amazing as well. Great example!

You really do look so good in the bright spring color palette. I’ve started learning about color seasons about 1 year or so ago. And you really do shine in the BS colors you’re using now! Also, I have watched a ton of your videos and really enjoyed this one as well. I’d love to see more of this type of thing. Maybe even having you analyze an another person as well in this way as they consider buying a new piece and pulling in their body type, personal style, etc.

Wow! You look great in that dress. I want to learn more

Gorgeous on you! Love the thought process for new purchases.

The color looks great on you! I wasn't sure you were a bright spring until you showed yourself in the dress. Perfect. Yes, these videos are fantastic. :)

Thank you so much Gaby 😊

Thanks! This was very helpful! Beautiful dress! Enjoy! 💃

Also did you get your color analysis done in nyc?? I would love to go!
