I really appreciate that you are one of the few fashion you tubers who doesn’t speak in a way that makes viewers feel pressured into buying new things. You always provide a no-buy solutions and I really appreciate that.
Amen! And when she does mention something, it is pure quality. I purchased two scarves from Sabina Savage after seeing them on Audrey’s channel and they are sublime!
I agree completely in your statement: "How you feel in your clothes is most important." It doesn't matter how anyone else sees you...it's how the outfit appeals to your personal sensibilities, no matter what others may say or think. Opening yourself up to advice and tips is a good quality, but at the end of the day, you have to be satisfied with you...
I dislike my picture being taken because I often feel like the picture doesn’t match what I saw in the mirror that morning (especially in regard to how my clothes are fitting) I think this video makes a lot of sense and I’ll definitely be trying it! Hopefully some better photos in my future 🙂
Honestly this is a game changer. I have all sorts of issues with outfits and photographs and looks, but no one else sees my outfit photos, and it makes it so easy to see what works and what doesn’t.
Always love your perspective! You are the best! I love clothes and shopping! Now that I am retired and not in need in work clothes I have pared down my wardrobe and have enjoyed making changes. However, I have stared wearing my good clothes for every day wear! It has been fun and I look more stylish! I have had a lot of compliments! So May people have commented about how how relaxed I look! I have not sacrificed my style, but have enhanced it. Thanks for your hints!
Love this! I tried it off and on for a while a couple years ago, but this has inspired me to start again! A video request, if I may: comfortable footwear that looks chic too. I recently moved to a city and am walking so much every day (passed 20,000 steps three times last week, and even hit 30,000 one day) -- which is great, except that the shoes I *thought* were comfortable aren't cutting it any more.
Hi! I think that a good idea might be wearing good sneakers (kind of like running shoes) maybe in a neutral color like black, AND have your chic shoes in your bag because it really looks like the walking it’s just too much for any chic footwear
Audrey this is so helpful. You and Chi, from Petite Dressing, have transformed the way that I put outfits together and people have noticed. I am starting a new job in January 2022 and I have started to update my office wardrobe so I am ready. I would not have had the confidence to do this without your inspired advice. I am so grateful.
So helpful! Love the idea of adding notes, too. Can't wait to try this! Once I thought I put together a suuuper cute outfit, but then I caught my reflection in a full length mirror when I was out and was shocked at how different it was from what I thought!
Perfect to get some Audrey style wisdom with morning coffee. I am really intrigued by this advice. And very uncomfortable! Hate having pic taken. But I could move out of my comfort zone, maybe. BTW, the zippered boots are outstanding.
Thank you, Audrey. I need to start doing this. I am colour blind, and rely on my daughters(and sometimes, husband) for colour help. Taking notes with the photos will absolutely be beneficial.
I watch your videos and find myself thinking, I wish I was friends with Audrey, she is kind, intelligent, sweet, stylish. Thank you for bringing your warmth to the UA-camverse x
Your advice is so true. I remember when I started taking pictures of myself I realize that it was in things I love to wear and I have a feeling strong feelings about the pieces I was wearing. So what you said about making that connection about what you love to wear and how you feel in them and how it looks is so important. And you and sometimes you are given compliments on outfits that look good but don’t feel good . I wonder why that is. It has taken me a while to understand that sometimes an outfit can look great but not feel great. I have come to accept this and now it has helped me so much avoid wearing things that don’t make me feel good. It has also helped me hold my personal style.
Could you do a video on your diet and workout routine? I'm trying to find a balance between being obsessed with my body image and not caring if I'm overweight. It's really hard to know exactly which diets and workouts to follow, when you hear so many different ideas on how to be healthy!🥺
I don't think there is some "perfect" diet or exercise routine that works for everybody and copying one from a youtuber might not work for you and won't make you look like them because every body is different. You kinda just have to try and figure out what works for you. For the workout just try different types until you find something you enjoy (or at least something you don't hate lol) so you'll be motivated to keep it up. As for diet cutting down on processed food and sugar and adding more veggies and fruits is something that is healthy in general. For weight loss you also need to slightly reduce the calories you consume daily. Whether you do this through replacing specific foods with "lighter" alternatives, cutting out snacks, eating off smaller plates, intermittent fasting or a "drastic" diet change like keto or going vegan is really just down to what you can keep up long term while not feeling too restricted by it. There isn't some magic recipe, you have to figure out what works for your body and your lifestyle.
I’ve been doing this for the past week and was blown away by how much I learned about myself and my style. I finally figured out why when I wore the “cute new things” that I was buying I was not feeling good. Colors! Thank you so much for making videos like this!! I will keep working on reflecting and upgrading my wardrobe appropriately.
What an awesome idea, I waste slot of time when I don’t plan an outfit in my brain. It also helps us weed through the clothing/accessories that don’t make the mark anymore. Great idea to motivate me to reorganize my wardrobe.👍❤️
I don't take pictures, but I do write what I am wearing daily in a style journal which includes how I feel about it, what I like and dislike, and also when I let something go or purchase something. I've been doing this for a year and I learn a lot from seeing what worked and what didn't. It also makes me accountable for what I bring into my wardrobe and what I let go.
Dear Audrey, your channel is so authentic and refreshing! I appreciate your suggestions and the focus on cultivating a personal style rather than on purposeless shopping. On top of that, your voice and eloquence elevate the already great video content. Warm regards from Hungary!
Arriving a bit late to this video but I just wanted to say I agree 100%!!! For the last two months I have been taking a daily pic of my Ootd using my monthly capsule. I did not do well with the closet purge that people here on UA-cam call Decluttering. But by creating small, monthly, capsules and taking a daily pic, the mindful use of my clothes is really taking off! If folks read this, do it! Also, I created a board on Pinterest for this sole purpose. So I upload my daily pic every morning, and I am creating an archive to study what I like, what I like but actually doesn't look well on me, and what I did not use from the capsule and why. SUPER RECOMMEND for all the mindful fashionistas here!!
Fantastic advice. I literally started a social account where I post outfit photos to track my outfits and hone in on my style. Thank you for all the photo taking tips too. The shoulder height point is invaluable. I really learned this the hard way and wish I had known it earlier. Thank you for putting this together. :)
…🌈☀️💖also…if one can, in regards to photos, choose a good time as well as lighting situation. For example during the “golden hour” one’s photos will appear more yellow, harsh sun at noon will create high contrast/shadows, the most neutral ideal lighting is an overcast day during the late morning & afternoon bc it creates diffused even lighting. Light temperature has a huge effect on skin tone and wardrobe colors.
Thank you for your channel! I so appreciate that you are giving women - young and old - something invaluable, and that is a realistic understanding of what is really means to be classically well dressed and elegant. Also, I can see from your backdrops that you are in my lovely Holy City. Welcome!
Excellent idea take photos of everything you wear. Feeling good in your clothes was a new idea for me. I spent years modelling and that thought never crossed my mind. Now it does. Thank you.
I’m a SENIOR and don’t take pictures of myself. However, I will become more mindful of what is more flattering ,in the daily outfit planning. I just love your tips !😘😘😘
What an interesting and informative video. This photo journal will be so helpful with picking out a flattering wardrobe. I'm looking forward to giving it a try and seeing how it changes my perspectives. Thank you so much for always having such wonderful ideas for us. You are truly a beautiful soul. ❤❤
This is a tip I used to do quite often, so I appreciate the little nudge to try this out again! It really does make a difference, but sometimes it's difficult to get that natural lighting.
Great video and ideas. I have a lot of very nice clothes and jewelry but since we don't go out much when we do I'm stumped on what to wear. I've experimented with outfits, but when I've had events to dress for I can't remember what the outfit I tried on looked like. Taking pictures will solve this. Thank you!
Good idea. Especially if I looked like you. I do everything to avoid pictures of myself. Depressing every time. I feel good, perhaps, but see a picture and HATE it and feel worse.
When we look at a full body mirror at home, from a close distance, we're seeing our body from top down. I've realized over time that my shoulders appear wider this way. When I catch a glimpse of myself outside, from a mirror way further away, my proportions look very different.
I do the picture thing, along with adding all of my wardrobe and outfit in an app. I use XZ Closet, it's really easy, I just took a photo off all of my wardrobe,s and then the app removes the background so everything is totally categorized by type, frequency, material, color, and... and it's all automatic! it even suggests outfit or I can plan outfits ahead! it tells me what clothing item is used more or less, and it definitely helped me a lot while buying clothes, I can quickly have access to my whole wardrobe and see if I really needed the team, I have duplicates or will the color truly match! no I am really aware of my clothing, it's one of the best things I have ever done! highly recommended!
Your channel is so amazing. It has helped me a lot and it's coming from new viewer. Someone who hasn't watched a lot but can still say that this channel very informative and amazing!
Love the combining of how you feel and how you look. I really need to take photos. I have seen some pictures of myself and thought oooo not good. Thank you for the photo tips. Now I understand why I look squatty in some pics 🤣
I appreciate your videos very much, especially the focus on different colors. I know you touched briefly on darker end of red, but I was wondering if you could go into more depth on reds. I think cranberry, burgundy, maroon, and all the shades between are the most complicated. At least for me. How do you recognize the color of deeper reds. I love those shades for winter but I have so much trouble recognizing which is which, I just turn my back and walk away.
I really need to start doing this. You’ve mentioned taking pics of ur outfits before and I’ve just been putting it off. Will definitely try and take some time to do it!
You are the most helpful person I follow in regard to style. I really appreciate your work. I love videos like this one, in which you focus on hows and whys of making things work. So educational. Thank you. Also you have really changed your speaking voice in a beautiful way (I recently watched a video from 3 years ago). It’s quite inspirational to see what an impact slower, softer voice/speech makes. Your voice and manner of speaking is just lovely.
As always love your video. I was doing so well I’m not shopping so much and then with COVID 20lbs. Plus do to COVID even though I had to go in daily it became very casual. So I would wear a nice top with Jeans, etc. Now back to work again but I’m a new title I work and have to be able to do anything from bathe a dog to food service and meetings with families. Do I’m no longer such sitting at a desk. Anyways I don’t like how I feel or look. Mostly because of the weight gain and the fact my very nice things can’t be worn or don’t fit. So doing this project will hopefully encourage me to put together things I love. Thank you Audrey. Love your wisdom.
Hi, Audrey! I'm a big fan of yours - especially as a fellow petite person constantly endeavoring to find clothes that fit both my style and proportions. 🙂 I wanted to ask you about the thumbnails on videos like this. You have a "before"/"after" image as the thumbnail on several of your videos, and I've never understood them; they don't seem to be explained in the videos themselves. Also, as in the thumb with this video, oftentimes the outfit in the "before" photo looks perfectly wonderful to me, and it leaves me curious what about it you'd improve, or what it has to do with the subject matter of he video. Thanks for hearing me out - be well!
This video is amazing, i find very difficult to convine most of my clothes and remember that outfit, so pictures make everything sooooooooo much easy, thank you so much for your tips!
I am definitely going to try this idea but can you please tell me how to add a note to a picture I’ve taken on my iPhone? That just doesn’t seem possible 😧
You are in a new stage of life, so it is a good time to reconsider what works for you now, which could be different from what worked for you in the past.
Did your body change drastically? I’m 2 years post and still not how I used to be and I can’t just grab an outfit like I used to. I’m slowly getting back to my comfortable body weight and I think it’s the only thing that helps. No other tips does. To me
Love your calmness and chic style. You have a lovely figure. Would it be possible though to give ideas on mistakes to avoid a curvy woman? Sending you sunshine from Athens Greece.
maybe you could lay out your outfits on your bed or hang them on your closet door and photograph them like that instead? That way you could takes notes on the way the individual outfits made you feel and keep track of what you like to wear at least :)
Ok, this is a completely different topic. I need denim advice, please. I'm a big woman 5'7" & 140lbs. I wear size 10 trousers but size 12 tops because I have large breast. I've tried on boyfriend jeans & they look sloppy on me. Skinny jeans aren't trending. I need a new pair of denim & I don't know what to get. Which is most stylish now? Straight leg, boot cut, or wide leg? I'm thinking a dark indigo wash or black based on current magazines. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you very much. 🙂 also, I only take OOTD pics when it's a special event. never occurred to me to take one daily, I'll give it a try. 🙂
I am larger than you, and probably older than you, too, which adds another dimension of "difficulty", so I hope you don't mind if I chime in to share my experience with denim cuts. First, don't get hung up on trends! Wear what makes you feel confident. If you like skinny jeans, wear them! I wear those, especially with knee-high boots, and will not stop no matter what the magazines and Insta says. I do make sure the rest of the outfit, as well as my hair and makeup, look current so I don't look like I'm out of touch. I also favor straight cuts and silhouettes with a slight boot cut (and heeled, pointy toe shoes) to balance both the curve of my hip and my voluptuous upper half. With those, I either wear something fitted on top, or a looser blouse with a cropped jacket that nips in at the waist in order to balance the volume of the jeans and fool the eye to think I have longer legs and a smaller midsection. Like you, I feel sloppy in boyfriend jeans, so I avoid them. And you're probably right in seeking darker washes, as they read "timeless" and "seasonless". Just keep trying brands, cuts, weights, and lengths...and don't give too much importance to things that are fleeting. How you feel in your clothes is way more important than what an influencer or commercial enterprise want us to covet!
Well firstly, you’re not a large woman. So I have been trying different loose and straight denim silhouettes like crazy this year. What I’ve come to realize is that I only like the fit of skinnies. But not too tight skinnies. But I want to also have some looser fits as those are more current. I still wear my skinny jeans though. So to get that current looser fit, I sized up one and two sizes to make the fit a bit looser so they look more like a straight leg jean, but the cut is that of a skinny, which fits my body the best. I went to the gap for this. Tried on a bunch and ordered a bunch online. Also love AG skinny jeans. Their ex boyfriend jean is great also but run really loose so get your normal size or even a size down in these. Good luck!
I really appreciate that you are one of the few fashion you tubers who doesn’t speak in a way that makes viewers feel pressured into buying new things. You always provide a no-buy solutions and I really appreciate that.
Exactly! Well said! 👍🏻
Amen! And when she does mention something, it is pure quality. I purchased two scarves from Sabina Savage after seeing them on Audrey’s channel and they are sublime!
And not pressured into exorbitantly expensive items... ( that some are "gifted"... geeze I liked 1 sweater... but at 450.00... no way!
@@theworldinheels they're so so beautiful
Audrey’s focus on sustainability and spending money wisely is such a rarity in this “$1000 Shein haul” infested UA-cam hellscape

This video is amazing, i find very difficult to convine most of my clothes and remember that outfit, so pictures make everything sooooooooo much easy, thank you so much for your tips!

Thank you so much for this beneficial vlog
I am definitely going to try this idea but can you please tell me how to add a note to a picture I’ve taken on my iPhone? That just doesn’t seem possible 😧
You are shiny, and gentle soul but I was always wondering how you and up here?😘 I don’t think that is bad, but just want to know?? Thank you!❤️
I could have literally wear everything before my pregnancies. Now I feel like nothing fits me anymore. I hope this helps me to refind my style.
You are in a new stage of life, so it is a good time to reconsider what works for you now, which could be different from what worked for you in the past.
Did your body change drastically? I’m 2 years post and still not how I used to be and I can’t just grab an outfit like I used to. I’m slowly getting back to my comfortable body weight and I think it’s the only thing that helps. No other tips does. To me
Is the music in your videos your own? I love the piano and would love to have this music on in the background
Sounds great. Looking for patterns to my choices and looking objectively. Thanks for this helpful tip! Now, actually doing it...
Nice video 😊 Good job Audrey 👏👏👏
You are the best!!!
Brilliant!
Love your calmness and chic style. You have a lovely figure. Would it be possible though to give ideas on mistakes to avoid a curvy woman? Sending you sunshine from Athens Greece.
What is the brand of white short sleeve that you’re wearing?
I wish I could do this, but my BD makes the process of taking pictures/ having them taken and looking at them, too difficult.
maybe you could lay out your outfits on your bed or hang them on your closet door and photograph them like that instead? That way you could takes notes on the way the individual outfits made you feel and keep track of what you like to wear at least :)
@@inspiredby624 Great suggestion, thank you.
Ok, this is a completely different topic. I need denim advice, please. I'm a big woman 5'7" & 140lbs. I wear size 10 trousers but size 12 tops because I have large breast. I've tried on boyfriend jeans & they look sloppy on me. Skinny jeans aren't trending. I need a new pair of denim & I don't know what to get. Which is most stylish now? Straight leg, boot cut, or wide leg? I'm thinking a dark indigo wash or black based on current magazines. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you very much. 🙂 also, I only take OOTD pics when it's a special event. never occurred to me to take one daily, I'll give it a try. 🙂
Go to HSN UA-cam. Diane Gilman denim. This may be your answer. Keep us posted and good luck. 🙂
I am larger than you, and probably older than you, too, which adds another dimension of "difficulty", so I hope you don't mind if I chime in to share my experience with denim cuts. First, don't get hung up on trends! Wear what makes you feel confident. If you like skinny jeans, wear them! I wear those, especially with knee-high boots, and will not stop no matter what the magazines and Insta says. I do make sure the rest of the outfit, as well as my hair and makeup, look current so I don't look like I'm out of touch. I also favor straight cuts and silhouettes with a slight boot cut (and heeled, pointy toe shoes) to balance both the curve of my hip and my voluptuous upper half. With those, I either wear something fitted on top, or a looser blouse with a cropped jacket that nips in at the waist in order to balance the volume of the jeans and fool the eye to think I have longer legs and a smaller midsection. Like you, I feel sloppy in boyfriend jeans, so I avoid them. And you're probably right in seeking darker washes, as they read "timeless" and "seasonless". Just keep trying brands, cuts, weights, and lengths...and don't give too much importance to things that are fleeting. How you feel in your clothes is way more important than what an influencer or commercial enterprise want us to covet!
@@irairod5160 Have you shopped at Talbot’s?
Calling yourself a "big woman" at 5'7 and 140# shows your perspective is skewed.
Well firstly, you’re not a large woman. So I have been trying different loose and straight denim silhouettes like crazy this year. What I’ve come to realize is that I only like the fit of skinnies. But not too tight skinnies. But I want to also have some looser fits as those are more current. I still wear my skinny jeans though. So to get that current looser fit, I sized up one and two sizes to make the fit a bit looser so they look more like a straight leg jean, but the cut is that of a skinny, which fits my body the best. I went to the gap for this. Tried on a bunch and ordered a bunch online. Also love AG skinny jeans. Their ex boyfriend jean is great also but run really loose so get your normal size or even a size down in these. Good luck!
Nice
Your hair is soo cute\ natural
Hi how are you feeling
