    I love your videos and I am really encouraged; since I turned 70, I have made a huge change in my wardrobe, eliminating the more predictable pieces for my age and created a winter capsule wardrobe based on 3 colors: whitish, camel and black. It's what I call a soft edge, anchored with white custom Converse platforms and Kenneth Cole black ankle suede boots. A pair of white/black Chelsea boots are next. Looking forward to your videos in 2022!

      I am 65 and I am definitely become edgier as I become older. Nothing ridiculous, not trying to look younger, and I get so many compliments.

      As I'm 73 and wondering why I'm watching a video like this so it's great to see you are over 70 too.
      It's good to see how a young and stylish woman organizes her wardrobe and I think I can learn from it.

      I'm 72, have always been "funky" with my clothes (or hippie-sloppy). I find the vibe of these really interesting and I'm letting Emily influence me. See post just above for more details. Glad to see we over-70 (or nearby) women are opting for strong personal style instead of pastel flowered nonsense.

    I love all your clothes and styles. You inspire me to dress with more thought even though most days no one sees me as I work from home. I have always loved clothing and grew up in the time of punk so love an edgy look. Thank you you have helped an almost 60 year old re find her way. I was at risk of being pulled into the world of boho! 🤣🤣. Happy holidays from Ireland x

      😉Once proudly owned a bold hot pink & black vertical striped pant in the late 80s. Instead of structured denim, they were a simplified harem design that draped nicely over hips in stretchy soft jersey material that tapered down to the ankles.
      Used to pair 'em w/all black. A wife beater undershirt & either a sheer black button down blouse knotted @ the waist or a hip length Boucle gilet on top.
      🌬️When it got chilly, I might swap for a body-con black t-neck, topped w/a black leather moto jacket. 🤜Wore all looks w/block heeled black combat boots🤛. It was very theatrical.
      😃Thought I was all that...& a bag of chips.
      😔Of course, I don't have the same swag these days. Do heartily appreciate how Emily understands how to create a fierce, edgy drama balanced w/a timeless, classic chic.

    The explanation of anchor pieces, pairing pieces, layering pieces, top off pieces, and sprinkle pieces were so helpful that I finally feel I can put together any capsule wardrobe with ease (and trust me, I've been working at this for a while)! I realize I have been intimidated at basic pieces because I thought they were boring. Now I see that the combination of pieces is what really creates a look, and that adding basics provides so much versatility. I also appreciate your emphasis on style moods; it makes sense to be prepared to dress for any way you might feel. And, this may be obvious to most, but I also recognized that each piece is of high quality. This really helps give a sophisticated and put-together vibe, which I will now aspire to when searching for future pieces. Thank you for helping explain the science of fashion-ability in a way that novices can understand and implement!

    I just watched this whole video. Live in Florida. Am 60 plus years of age. Don't know a thing about capsule wardrobes. Have a closet full of bright colorful cool looking stuff. I am extremely diverse in what I will wear depending on the occasion. But sit at home by myself doing nothing most of the time. Have figured out one thing. I seem to love a man's white V neck undershirt. Lol. That's all I really know for sure. OMG....so funny. Thank you. I enjoyed your video.

    Your videos are really inspiring and have such a cool aesthetics, thanks for sharing!

    If I owned those striped pants, I would not be able to help saying in the mirror every morning that I wear them, "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice". 😁 And that in itself makes me happy!! However with my body type I avoid stripes at all costs!!
    Loved the video Em! Happy holidays to you and yours!! I hope you're surrounded by all the love and laughter you deserve!

    Thank you for your unique videos. I'm much older than you but appreciate that your looks are real and unfussy yet still grown up. They also don't require tons of clothes and give me a new perspective on what I like in my closet. I've finally accepted my simplistic preferences, trying to avoid what I wish I would wear but don't. I really like your aesthetic and, though not entirely comfortable with "edgy", I can modify your approach to make mine better.

    @leeannschaffer1433 2 роки тому +1

    I have only recently found your channel and fell in love immediately.❤️
    I thought that I might throw out an idea of word choice for you. It seemed like the expression about "toning down" a look didn't really capture your intent, but I completely got what you were going for. If I were going to pass on some of your ideas to others (I definitely AM going to) I think that the words gravity or even gravitas would express what you were trying to get across. "Toning down" something somehow sounds like you are dismissing or hiding something instead of using it as a useful contrast: that of grounding an aesthetic so another aspect is supported and shines. I talk too much so I would be surprised if anyone is still reading this comment at this point, 😂 but I would love for anyone to tell if I'm wrong, right, insane, etc. I'm aware that I could be all of those simultaneously.
