    Great looks. Confidence is also a great way to look polished. When you love how you look (Not caring what other folks think), you truly look your best. You are wearing your clothes not them wearing you.

    So right about the choice of fabric. I’m trying to not bring in any more 100% polyester items. It’s really hard because so many brands use this. But ultimately it looks inexpensive and makes me feel overly sweaty.

Most people cannot afford clothes and accessories costing hundreds or thousands.

    Some really great, usable ideas on how to level up an outfit. I "forgot" I own a couple of high end silk scarves that I haven't pulled out of my closet in forever. I used to wear one of those with a neutral sweater or blouse and basic trousers or skirt or one-color dress, and it would look instantly amazing. I need to go dig those out right now!

I paired classic beige slacks that I’ve had for at least 12 years w/a simple blouse & floral pumps(from Amazon). No one could believe that the slacks were that old.

I definitely have most or more than half of the pieces, and I definitely mesh them together to make for a classy outfit ensemble. Designer pieces are an investment therefore, I tend to utilize my bags, earrings, bracelets, etc when it comes to designer additives. I love blazers..however, I live in New Orleans..so our winters are all of maybe 3 to 4 weeks sparingly..so, I wear winter pieces when the first sign of cold arises!!😂😂

    I found your video very helpful. And I admire your sense of style. So I was surprised and disappointed to see that the plaid on your pants did not match on both legs that's a giveaway that an item is made cheaply, because it uses more fabric to match the plaid. That can be a problem when there are seams that make it obvious that any print isn't matched. I look forward to seeing more of your helpful ideas.
