    This was a really informative video and answered a lot of questions I had about layering, which is a fashion technique I have recently have been trying. I have lost 70 pounds in the last 18 months and prior to the weight loss, was always too overheated to layer at all! 😂 Thank you. PS. Don't bother with the snarky people and their snarky comments.

    Why a person feels the need to say they are bored with content makes no sense. If a video is not for you move on. Constructive comments critique or suggestions dont need to be snark. I happen to love all of the verbal instruction but I understand some dont learn that way. In that case the shorts are your friend…thank you Kristin!!

    I was excited to watch your video when I saw the caption about how to layer tops but I was really hoping you would speak to layering tips for how to wear sweaters (not cardigans or blazers) over shirts or other sweaters. The look I like is when you see a bit at the neck, at the bottom, and sometimes at the wrists but my problem is either the neckline isn’t high enough to pop through or the bottom pop is so long that I want to take scissors to it! Anyway, I did learn some things in your video even though I don’t own any blazers. Perhaps you might consider doing a video on what I just mentioned? Just a thought…thank you.

    • @KristenCainStyle
      @KristenCainStyle  15 днів тому +3

      I’ll keep that in mind for future videos! Thanks. Honestly, I find that layering shirts (woven with a collar) under sweaters is often a nuisance so I opt for open-front layers instead. What you shared is exactly my frustration with it. So I avoid it!

Usually it's only when I'm going to a restaurant that I need to layer. I almost always wear a dress when going out for dinner and use a shawl. I have 3, 1 off white, I beige, and 1 muted pastel pattern that work with all my dresses. Shawls don't work when shopping or around the house so I appreciated the tips!

  • @sarahthatcher123
    @sarahthatcher123 14 днів тому +1

    Thank you for really breaking this down in practical terms. So helpful. Just a little frustration though…if you have any influence with the brand Quince….I want to purchase their items as I like the quality for the price and their values ( more natural fibres) all why you really like them… my frustration with finding particularly sweaters for myself is 1) they offer more ‘camel’ shades for the lighter ‘beige’ colors. The warmer ‘beige’ doesn’t work for me. And then when they do a ‘cream’ the cream is too stark. I would prefer more of a true oatmeal color. Any other color then is too dark for what I want like the chocolate brown. 2) Even if they offered the color that worked, then the length of almost all their sweaters are WAY TOO LONG. I am petite in height but not in size. If they even just offered some truly cropped styles they might work. I think they might have one crop sweater or cardigan but it’s not really that cropped. To me it’s actually just a ‘normal’ length. Many are either very streamline and close to the body and long or they are super oversized in shape and also too long. Finding a cardigan that is truly cropped in the right color and fibre is next to impossible. Sigh.

  • @sar7719
    @sar7719 14 днів тому

    Thank you Kristen! That was very informative, especially with the examples. This maybe a simple question and maybe silly, but with all those sheer(ish) white blouses you showed in the beginning, what would you recommend wearing under those if you are wearing in the warmer seasons? A tan tank or a white tank? I feel like I cannot seem to find the right item to wear underneath as most white blouses are too sheer for my personal preference because I carry a bit more weight in the middle, so even if I Iike the pretty white blouses you showed I am not able to wear them. White tanks underneath just feel/look odd to me. Not sure if that is confusing. Appreciate all your videos. Thanks again!

    • @celticsurfersully13
      @celticsurfersully13 11 днів тому +2

      I'm not sure what Kristen's answer will be, but I always wear a light beige camisole/tank under white. It's just like wearing undies close to your skin tone under white pants.

I’m 4’11” with almost no space between my ribs and hip so high waisted are correct. I wear high waist bottoms but the jacket just looks too small and child like. I’ve found a long/longer cardigan/jacket works much better. Haven’t found the sweet spot yet though 😂

    As you go along with making videos, one thing that would help (I have the same need) is to work towards becoming more concise. I am finding making 3 points is enough. And the formula "Here are 3 things I am going to teach you." Then teach the 3 things, Then "I just taught you these 3 things." works beautifully.
    It's something to aim for so you don't say " The top of this peasant blouse is too fussy for the blazer 3+ times like you did here.
    An outline can help you stay on track. Not to give up your wonderful relaxed and informal style, but to make it easier for your audience to hear and retain your content.
    This is something that I need to learn, and maybe it's not for you. But I think clarity and being concise are definitely ways for women to show their expertise more effectively.
