    Dear Alyssa, I didn't read all these comments, but I wanted to select a recent video to tell you what a HUGE difference your channel has made in my life. I have been spending many, many, many years trying to recover and heal from my "escape" pattern of buying, buying, buying. You have provided the needed empowerment for me to unload four closets full of clothes and two large bags of shoes. I can't thank you enough for doing what you do! It has been life-changing for me! Benedizioni, your cumpari, Mary Ann

    I'd love to see you create a modern spin on some iconic stars of the silver screen. Katherine Hepburn comes to mind. She wore trousers with such elegance and style. Trousers are having such a moment right now I think it could be fun to rwcreate some updated. Hepburn looks!

    Let's take a moment to notice something. Alyssa spoke about all the women in the same way: their elements style, how they use color, texture, and silhouette. But with one example, just her presence in the line-up triggers some others. I submit that says more about the people who are bothered than the fact that all three examples are well styled women and we could possibly take a idea or two from them and how to style our own closet. Breathe, y'all. It ain't that deep.

    Yes! This WAS a good one. I thoroughly enjoy the Shop Your Closet mindset in your videos and this one had different parameters with generalized style elements and character from Great Moms, indeed! Such diverse style themes, also my introduction to Grece Ghanem and I took much from her example, although far from my own style. It is always a delight to watch your own surprised reaction to an outfit combination! Unpredictable. Well done!

    Awe righty! You sure have not done this type of video in a while. And thank you, hope everyone had a good Mother's Day. This was a good look at Michele Obama fashion vibe because I did not realize that she actually does favor wearing structure garments and not too much flouncy, which gives her a more suited professional vibe. With the Grece inspired look maybe if you added a scarf to the smaller handbag, it would help them to not look so structured and add accent flare. Regina Hall or Octavia Spencer is a couple of suggestions. Thanks for sharing and blessings to you and all in the days to come.

    Alyssa chose mothers whose style she wanted to try to emulate by shopping her closet. Doing so meant she liked these women's styles. My way of thinking ( just in general, not necessarily to do with clothes) is that you don't have to been in agreement with someone about politics or any other subject to gain inspiration from someone.

And then the tone of the comments...I don't even want to go there. To your point, of course Michelle Obama is held in high regard in many places, including by many people in the US.

Alyssa's analysis of Michelle's style was my favourite of the three chosen. /I'd started trying to write to you ✒that we all have the strongest opinions about political leaders in our OWN countries.

    Accessories like some necklaces, hat and a colored handbag might work too on the first look. I have MS so my body is uncomfortable so soft, natural & loose fabrics & flat shoes, boots or sneakers work well. I love it that dresses and white sneakers are in style... thank goodness! I love the Juxtaposition of a dress with ankle lace up boots and gives me feet and ankles some stability.
    I needle felted some flower patterns onto my distressed jeans that are soft and I wear all the time! It gives them a boots vibe too.
    My daily uniform is athleisure wear. That way I can practice yoga and go out of the house without changing my clothes. I usually put on a workout pant, yoga pant or legging paired with a loose top and a long sweater. I put on aome jewelry or a scarf, throw on a hat and sunglassess as I leave the house and I look like i tried and am put together.

Somehow it's entertaining to me because it's so out of my wheelhouse and I am fascinated by the concept of fashion being a thing to do. Maybe I'll try harder (: I am totally the green sweater with the jeans girl, but I'd just be wearing tennies (: P.S. the black straps on your bra with the slinky dress actually pulled the black straps on the shoes together - I think you should wear it! There you go - input from the unfashionable, for what it's worth. I LOVED the huge black bag with the gray slippy dress!! Also loved to be introduced to Grece!! I would love to see you interpret Isabel Marant! Gosh, maybe I know more than I think I know (:

I can see them in each example most of all Cindy Crawford example, her style echoes her Flamboyant natural body type with classic essence.. For me Im just so glad there is an alternative to the fruit body types (eg. Apple, Pear etc)...Kibbe system doesn't idealise the hourglass rather celebrates how each type can shine in their own unique way. Would be interested in your thoughts...
