As you know Erin I am a Nutritional Endocrine & Weight Management Therapist and have also qualified in BHRT. I run a health academy and lecture within it on Hormones for 40+. Always happy to do a collaborative Q&A with any questions your followers have and do a deep dive into hormones, insulin resistance (why?) and general wellbeing subjects that affects us all eventually! :-) I think your changed approach is much more conducive to ongoing health and vitality - it is so easy to get burned out both mentally and physically with an approach that is too strict and doesn't serve us as a whole.
Love that idea! Would you please reach out to us via email? You can contact us at info@busbeestyle.com and we will hold onto your info for down the road!! xo
Yes, you need to do this. I am post menopausal and just finally got diagnosed with insulin resistance. Come to find out it is pretty common for menopausal women. I was happy that I was able to get put on medication and stop the weight gain. I am plant based and do strength training 4 days a week. It was really getting to me that I was gaining weight for no reason. FYI this has been a battle for at least 5 years for me.
@@loripelletier7523 which medication are you on for insulin resistance please? I would like to research it. I am Hypo thyroid/Hashimoto/menopause and am currently trying my 5th routine of HRT- I am a fat mess!!!
Hi Erin, as a 54-year old woman, I’ve too “surrendered”. Like you, I’ve been on so many different diets and exercise programs, and I’ve decided I’m going to do what feels right for me at the moment. Thanks for your thoughts!
Erin, I hope you don't mind me saying that our style isn't the same at all but something keeps me coming back to your videos! I'm not sure what it is, but I think your positivity shines through and makes me feel like a part of a community you have created.
Great idea! We did these 2 videos on the subject during quarantine... ua-cam.com/video/xn7GWPR13aU/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/bEfnsXnNjFs/v-deo.html We're working on an updated activewear video too, so stay tuned for that one! xo
I’m so glad you’re listening to your body and using health as your guide to food & exercise. We could all benefit from that mindset. It’s relaxed & allows for more fun & enjoyment. And that plays a part in how good a person looks, from the inside out!
Hi Erin. I am a 72 year old woman . I’ve been doing a styling business for years. I have such a passion for design and fashion. It was a perfect fit for me. My business was put on hold when I got breast cancer. I spent my adult life obsessing about my weight. This disease has completely changed that. The reality is that I was really limiting my joy. I realized that although I’m 20lbs heavier, I’m a more balanced person. Freeing myself and my mind of the obsession of trying to stay thin has opened my heart in ways you can’t imagine. I’ve rid myself of people who are negative. My relationships are deeper and more fulfilling. I’m happier and more at peace. By the way, I found out that I can still dress well and look great, even with the absence of breasts. Life is good! Thank you for your content. You are my favorite!!
I am truly honored that you've shared a piece of your story with me. You are truly inspiring and I am lucky to have amazing women like YOU here in my corner. SO glad you are here and loving life!! xo
I firstly want to say that I love the more zen approach to life. You appear to be more relaxed. I think as we age more zen is necessary. Eating healthy and exercise when you can is so much more livable. I had to stop watching a lot of UA-camrs this summer because when they stress out about their what appears to be near perfect looks or weight it makes some others think omg I really suck. I really need to do more. It was just a lovely video to watch. Thank you❤ Marie
Thank you, Erin for being so vulnerable and honest with us. I admire your strength, resilience and forthrightness. May we all come to a place of peace with our bodies and self-love.
I appreciate your new philosophy on eating and exercise. I am so tired of the what I eat in a day, what’s my workout routine posts. I have never gotten into those. It’s so silly because what works for one person is not going to work for everyone and let’s face it women always ask other women what your “secret” is and then they don’t do it anyway. People need to quit labeling food as good or bad and they need to quit using food as a reward and exercise as a punishment. Your body deserves food. Period. You don’t need to “earn” any food and move your body because it feels good. If you’re going to eat something, eat it with love and enjoy it. What is the point of eating a cookie if you’re going to feel bad about it or eating a kale salad and being crabby Sorry, I’m just a little passionate about this subject 😂😂
People asked me how I lost fifteen pounds in twelve months. I said I ate anything I wanted. Whaaat? I did not say I ate as much as I wanted, but not making a food a "good" or " bad" food made it so much easier. I did drink a lot of water....so glad someone else feels like me.
Grace, surrender…that speaks to me as well. It is the best part is getting older. I have no more time or energy to be cruel to myself. I’d love to see a series or video about style from the inside out. Enjoyed this one! Thank you!
FWIW, I remember my mother telling me all about hat etiquette, like: a lady never takes off her hat, only her gloves; the brim should always be parallel to the horizon, never upward like a drunk! She was European, glamorous and well-travelled, from an era when women rarely left the house without a hat and gloves.
As a petite motorcyclist, I bought a boys leather moto jacket. It fits great. Yes, the zipper is on the opposite side…but the fit is great. Also, look at junior sizing for moto jacket if you are petite.
Thank you, Erin. I have never had a fashion sense. My style has been jeans, shorts, t-shirts, casual. I may not agree with all your suggestions but now I have a good idea of what to buy. I definitely want to look more chic, put together and classy. I accidentally bought some spot-on shoe's this spring. They are lilac, lug soled loafers with a chain accent. I didn't know they were a fashionable buy until I saw your video on shoes and realized I hit the fashion mark three times in one shoe. I simply loved them when I saw them. Jackpot! I am working on my basics. I don't go out often, rarely, so I don't need anything past the basics. I wear a sweatshirt and jeans into work then change into scrubs (OR nurse), but I so enjoy seeing your lovely wardrobe.
Hello Erin and wonderful team of women. I love this channel for so many reasons... this channel has lifted me up in those moments were I just let myself to: menopause, weight gaining because of menopause, not wanting to continue being in fashion, just being tired of all of it. Erin, I owe you big. You have been my inspiration to continue looking as good as I can in this new stage of life that is not easy. Aging is not easy for us women... Now I embrace this stage of life... getting older with dignity and lots of wisdom. Thank you Erin and wonderful women that work along with Erin. Love you guys. Xo from Mexico City
You’re just so beautiful! Inside and out. Thank you for being who you are. Honestly making ourselves a priority is so much more important than I realized. Stumbling upon your videos has been such a huge blessing for me. The fact that you also share yourself and your struggles with such honesty makes everything you say seem attainable where as in the past I had felt in my life for me certain things were not. I am 45 and had been working outside on ACs in Florida for years. I had gotten into a habit where it didn’t matter what I looked like because I was always dirty and exhausted. Being a mom there just never seemed to be a need to put time into myself. After the pandemic hit I had to quit my job and still kept my routine. So again thank you for being here to do what you do! You’re a true giver and a true blessing. THANK YOU💗!
So very good to hear sound, sensible, doable advice. A far cry from other “influencers” who promote a fast food and aspartame diet. Congratulations on 13 years sober! ❤️
Love this video Erin! You’ve been so relaxed lately and it’s nice to see you so confidant and focused on the things that are really important in life, yet still looking fabulous. I love that you’re realistic about how you dress on a day to day basis, but still find reasons to dress up. I love your whimsical style you sometimes wear in your videos and it reminds me to wear whatever feels good to me and rock my girly side occasionally. ❤😊
I’m a SAHM in small town IA. I never dress up here but I still love watching all of your videos. I play with clothes when we travel. Thanks for all the inspiration!
Historically, the etiquette for women and hats, it was acceptable to wear them in daytime but not at night-watch Downton Abbey. However, I think the question was geared on the size of the hat and being indoors. If the hat is small and part of the outfit, I leave it on. If the hat is larger and is functional for blocking sun, I take it off inside to let my head cool down and to increase my vision. Thx, Erin!
I'm in the middle of watching your video but I wanted to comment here. Ive been watching you off and on for the last 2 years. I love watching the evolution of your personal philosophy when it comes to diet, acceptance and surrender. I feel like I can relate to you in that sense because it is something that I am personally working on , in my own healing work... So, thank you for sharing.
I'm 65. Been all over with diet. I finally come to the conclusion that what ever I choose to eat is the highest quality. My health is so very important to me. As I am now deciding to eat jus high quality foods without restrictions, I eat healthier. Just works for me.
Hi Erin, Just a quick note about shortening sleeves on a moto jacket. A good tailor will not mess with the wrist end of the sleeve with all that intricate detail. They will actually remove the sleeve at the shoulder and shorted from there. My son had this issue on a jacket and our amazing tailor took the excess length from the sleeve where it meets the shoulder. So much cleaner and simpler! You’d never know it was altered.
Hi Erin, being mindful of what we eat is so important. If I want to have some ice cream I will. Not gonna eat a pint, but food is supposed to not only nourish but bring joy too! Listening to the body and doing things we enjoy makes life worth living. I have been a subbie for a while now, and I admire your honesty and your understanding. Love you GF... Michele
This was amazing! I love the idea of information for healing. I've had a very tough year...and it ain't over yet. I'm really trying to be in the moment and not create unnecessary worry and anxiety. That's been difficult.
Sending light and love your way, Jenn. I think you will find these takeaways from the team helpful in moving your mind away from unnecessary worries: busbeestyle.com/easy-wellness-habits/ xo
👸🏽🇹🇹 I have two comments. The first is I admire your ability to separate what you provide professionally from what's personal. As a viewer I can listen from how does this apply to me and what I am doing. The second comment I have is I found that when it comes to managing my wellness those reasons are constantly being updated. Like I need to workout today because I will feel better or I needed eat this way so that I don't get side swiped by terrible hunger. Each day its something different. Erin you are a contribution.
Erin, I love your outlook on health nutrition and exercise. I believe this is the way to go for me as well. You’re such a treasure and I appreciate you so much. Be well and stay blessed. ❤
I love your channel. It makes me so happy to see you and hear you say things like hey I don’t drink, and I’m happy about it!! You are growing and changing, and sharing along the way and I appreciate it. I approach diet and exercise the way you explained and it really helped me! Life is short! ❤❤❤
I'm very happy to hear that you & your team are content & work well together. And more importantly, you care so much for them. In this day of cut, cancel, slash jobs & bad news, it's very refreshing to see. Your chanel has excellent content & I thoroughly enjoy following along. Well done!! 🌟🥂🎉💖🤗
I'm so glad you're here and enjoyed this video, Michele! Appreciate you more than you know. This team of mine is truly the best... Can't say enough good things about them! Happy to share with you. xo
I love this video and the information you gave everyone. I myself no a person who puts on makeup every day either, it looks beautiful and everything but I can't do it every day. It is amazing that you have a good team, it is so important. I think a course about healing sounds like a great idea.
Thank you Erin… Very pleasant spending time with you in your gorgeous dressing room /office… Wonderful content today ...thank you kindly. You are so calm, real, exuberant and confident. 🦋💎
I love the idea 💡 of the Healing from The Inside Out focus! It goes with the "Confidence" part of style and presentation. And it shows shows the depth part of our glow. ✨ I'm a trained Enneagram enthusiast and an excellent guide for helping people discover their Enneagram type style. Erin, you're Wonderful! Thanks for all you share! 💝
I appreciated you tearing up talking about your team and admire your kind of leadership built on real connection. Your views on fashion, health, and the process are authentic and down to earth. Always look forward to your posts!
Hi Erin, I can relate so much to you and your journey. Sending you and all the amazing people out there who help with and watch this channel, lots of love. Kindness and compassion to ourselves and others is living our best life 💕💖💕💖
Thank you! You are only style channel I follow. You are knowledgeable, giving, and fun about it all, and fashion is FUN. Even though I know my beauty, health, and style routines, I find your content and presentation always fresh and exciting. Keep up the great work!
Loved this update video. Erin you are so authentic and humble, there not many out there with your knowledge and talent to be so down to earth. You are one of my favorite🙏💝
I’m not sure the person asking about moto jackets when you’re petite will see this. However, I’m 4’11” and I’ve found it very difficult to find moto jackets to fit my arm length. I’ve recently discovered the AllSaints Balfren jacket to be perfect. The sleeves have an open zipper, not gusseted. It makes all the difference. You can open the zipper all the way or just slightly. I now have 3 of them because they work so well for me.
Hi Erin...Love this. I am always interested in more about my favorite fairy stylist. I still wear make up everyday and put on jeans..decent shirt ( it is the age we grew up in ) ...rather than joggers, only because I don't have the cool ones you do or pretty lounge outfits. I quit labeling food as good or bad, quit always doing keto, quit obsessing over every bad thing I ate and lost fifteen pounds and kept it off. Like you I was tired of doing that and now food is what nourishes me and to be honest I grew up with good garden vegetables and fruit from our fruit trees so I do have a pretty healthy diet, but I will never be thin and I don't care. I try to get my steps in and rake and push mow in the summer and fall and exercise and walk in the winter. I just want to stay strong. Thanks Erin for your honesty and your commitment to your subs. You are the very best. I still say you in those cool joggers, and that black top is an image you should get framed for the hubby for Christmas!!! Love u friend !!!
You are the best, Rita! Always appreciate you and your sweet words. I'm so glad you're doing well on this journey too. Cheering you on over here! Maybe you should put a pair of cool joggers on your Christmas list this year... ;) xo
Great video! You have to enjoy life and not worry about every last thing you eat. I try and do good 5 days and weekends enjoy eating out. I walk every day mostly for exercise. 😉 works for me. Being easy in life is wonderful.
Would like to see you do a Busbee Style “Coast to Coast” - perhaps collaborating or joining forces with other style media experts across the country for our age demographic-also continuing on any wellness path that helps us stay focused on feeling our best and looking our best too.
Hi Erin (and fabulous team), I loved this video thank you for sharing it with us. I admire your approach to parenthood and thinking what wonderful humans you are developing, so great! 💫 I especially love your outlook on wellness and after dealing with many hardships of my own this year, I have finally landed on the same page. It also sends such a healthy message to your daughter. xoxo 💛💖
I have a solution for the too-long sleeve with the zipper detail and the wrist!!!!! After over a year of not wearing a jacket that I loved, I came up with the idea and thought it was either genius or...impossible. But my alterations lady had no problem doing it so it turned out to be GENIUS. I had her ruche the sleeves with elastic at the elbow. Essentially pushing up the sleeves permanently. it worked like a charm!
It was great hearing about your team, I’ve seen them on your site. Very uplifting to hear about what a positive environment it is… ☺️ Really enjoy your channel and content, always look forward to Wednesday. Thank you! ❤👍🏼
Thanks for a great video. I also am doing the same approach to diet and exercise and I’m 65. Glad you all got to experience Miraval. I went 5 times to all different locations. ❤
I would love to see a class on healing as it relates to one's style and confident presentation. I want a healthy mind-set to go along with a great look. Looking forward to hearing more.
Great content Erin! I am with you on the diet, obsessing trying to keep the same body we had in our 30s is not the best approach. I eat healthy most of the time and try to stay active, I am quite happy with the way I look at my age. I have ditched skinny jeans as I also find them not comfortable now, loving flares and bootcut styles. And…why did you show the scarf again 😂😂 I almost bought the same or pretty similar one on Poshmark but someone was faster than me. Love scarves!
Alicia, well said. Eat healthy, stay active is the right way to go instead of going extreme on dieting or exercise. It is a way of life and very easy to maintain. I have been like this since colleague. I am happy with the way I look, but my body is definitely not the one I had in my early youth. There is nothing wrong with that. It is natural.
Maybe you have addressed this before, but have you ever had a color analysis done? And what do you think of them? I'm curious if this has an impact on the colors I like (in general) and why I feel a certain way when I wear certain colors, or when I look at a color and it doesn't call to me.
Great question! I went over that question right here in Question #3 of my first Q&A video: ua-cam.com/video/4frF-ysSBHA/v-deo.html (Spoiler Alert: I don't believe in the whole color analysis process!) It sounds like you're already conscious of what colors you prefer to wear - that's the key! xo
You said you take liothyronine for your thyroid. How do you feel it works for you and do you take multiple doses a day? I have Hashimoto’s hypothyroidism, (25 years in) and I take both the T4 and T3 supplementation, and my doctor just increased the T3 to see if it would help with weight loss. Wondering how your experience has been being on T3 only. Thanks!
Hi Erin ,I am a lot older than you and I have had a hysterectomy. I have been on natural hormone replacement therapy for 20 years. You take a blood test and you find out where your hormone levels are at and they put little pellets under your skin that last for 4 to 5 months. It’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me. Without them I was depressed, etc. etc. If you’re interested you can always research it. I love your videos. I quit drinking 30 years ago not because I had a problem just because I was over it. I just had better things to do.
Erin, thank you for this, very useful as usual, just one thing!: you shouldn't take your hat off as a guest in a wedding. Not even at the table. That's the etiquette
Hi Erin ! Would love a video in what coats/jackets to wear with different outfits. Specifically dressier outfits ! I always struggle with what to wear over my dressy clothes !
With dressier outfits, I'd go with a long-line trench coat, either right at or slightly longer than the length of your dress. If your dress is maxi length, either a medium or long length coat will be great. If you're somewhere really cold, here's some more specific tips for you! ua-cam.com/video/NHzGamuvvEM/v-deo.html
I honestly felt as if I was drinking my coffee with you in Colorado. Please tell us how to style the scoop stiletto bootie you featured a while back. ¡Gracias! ❤
Erin, great video! I truly appreciate you and the gift of knowledge that you share with all of us. You have an amazing team that you clearly appreciate! I always feel uplifted and inspired after your videos! ❤
I enjoy your videos so much. Need to post on that Facebook with Bees very soon.. Got back from my holiday and loved the community helping me with my wardrobe planning. Time to show the results.
Headed for Denver this weekend. Small town gal having to dress city. Opera and hockey game in one weekend. The carnivore lifestyle has stopped my menopause symptoms and insulin resistance. Easy for me because I don’t think about food anymore.
😢Hi Erin! Thanks for another great video. I have (two) suggestions: In regards to your new (style made simple course) 1. I personally would be more apt to purchase this IF you also offered say 5 or 6 hours of your own ‘personal style advice’ (via Skype or text/email) where ‘you’ (not your team) answer our most important style faux pas/questions/dilemmas. I joined your style fb group years ago, Thinking that that was going to be something similar. But quickly realized it was like the blind leading the blind, haha. You are the expert and sometimes we just want 30 seconds of your raw and honest personal style opinion/recommendations. 2. I would love to see an updated new video on how to Google search for specific style pieces and where/how to find them, for the best price. Thanks again, Erin
Always find your videos really helpful, sincere and relatable. I feel the same way as you when it comes to choosing nourishing foods, and exercising in ways that meet the body’s needs rather than following a rigid routine. Learning to trust and surrender is so helpful. … I do have a question related to the hair segment. Could you recommend a shampoo and conditioner for menopausal women that can help restore some of the youthfulness in the hair? Do such products even exist? Lol Thank you!
Thanks so much for your sweet words and your support! The thing with hair... is that it's so different for us all. Here's my top tips for thicker hair though: ua-cam.com/video/Ul0lIoWzqJY/v-deo.html I hope this helps!! xo
I'm under five feet tall and learned to hem my own pants and jackets. Recently I hemmed a Moto jacket with zipper detailing. All I did was hem it by sewing in the extra length inside, and then unzipped that inside part and let the zipper hang on the outer part of the sleeves. It looks believable. :)
Thanks so much, Jill! I really wanted to keep things minimalistic and clean in this space. Here's a link to these roses: go.magik.ly/ml/1ntck/ And you can check out more details of my whole "cloffice" space here in this blog: busbeestyle.com/cloffice-work-from-home/
For question #8, this may sound crazy but I have one of the best cobblers just a couple of towns away. This man has mended so many things for me including leather purses. I'm certain if you found the right one, they could easily shorten the sleeves of a moto jacket and replace the zipper as well. Thought I'd throw that out there.
Hi Erin, I have been watching you for years now. I liked your today’s look I just feel like middle part snatched back pony would have looked good in my my opinion otherwise that top is so pretty on you. Happy holidays✨
Hi Erin, there must be lots of products that are easier to design and make than bags, Michele Wang had scarves made. Anything you turn your heart to will work out, maybe bags were not quite the right thing? My intuition tells me that you have a book or two in you as well xx
First I want to thank you for the lovely video. Secondly I love your new approach to life. More zen. I need more zen…. And I think more of us ladies as we age
You are just amazing! To see a beautiful woman giving us such wonderful advice and also having such exceptional good tast in every category is awesome! Thank you kindly for being so amazing!

Yes! This is the answer I've been looking for. Unfortunately, I purchased a moto jacket that is just too big.

You’re just so beautiful! Inside and out. Thank you for being who you are. Honestly making ourselves a priority is so much more important than I realized. Stumbling upon your videos has been such a huge blessing for me. The fact that you also share yourself and your struggles with such honesty makes everything you say seem attainable where as in the past I had felt in my life for me certain things were not. I am 45 and had been working outside on ACs in Florida for years. I had gotten into a habit where it didn’t matter what I looked like because I was always dirty and exhausted. Being a mom there just never seemed to be a need to put time into myself. After the pandemic hit I had to quit my job and still kept my routine. So again thank you for being here to do what you do! You’re a true giver and a true blessing. THANK YOU💗!
Thank you for your sweet, sweet message. I hope you are beginning to realize that you deserve to be a priority too, April. SO glad you are here! xo
So very good to hear sound, sensible, doable advice. A far cry from other “influencers” who promote a fast food and aspartame diet. Congratulations on 13 years sober! ❤️
Thanks for watching, Maria! SO glad you found this video helpful! xo
Love this video Erin! You’ve been so relaxed lately and it’s nice to see you so confidant and focused on the things that are really important in life, yet still looking fabulous. I love that you’re realistic about how you dress on a day to day basis, but still find reasons to dress up. I love your whimsical style you sometimes wear in your videos and it reminds me to wear whatever feels good to me and rock my girly side occasionally. ❤😊
Thank you so much for your thoughtful message, Jennifer. Truly appreciate YOU and your genuine support. xo
I’m a SAHM in small town IA. I never dress up here but I still love watching all of your videos. I play with clothes when we travel. Thanks for all the inspiration!
Love that, Jess! Traveling is one of the best times to try out fun clothes!! xo
Historically, the etiquette for women and hats, it was acceptable to wear them in daytime but not at night-watch Downton Abbey. However, I think the question was geared on the size of the hat and being indoors. If the hat is small and part of the outfit, I leave it on. If the hat is larger and is functional for blocking sun, I take it off inside to let my head cool down and to increase my vision. Thx, Erin!
I'm in the middle of watching your video but I wanted to comment here. Ive been watching you off and on for the last 2 years. I love watching the evolution of your personal philosophy when it comes to diet, acceptance and surrender. I feel like I can relate to you in that sense because it is something that I am personally working on , in my own healing work... So, thank you for sharing.
Sending you light and love, Lisa. SO glad you are here! xo
I'm 65. Been all over with diet. I finally come to the conclusion that what ever I choose to eat is the highest quality. My health is so very important to me. As I am now deciding to eat jus high quality foods without restrictions, I eat healthier. Just works for me.
Hi Erin,
Just a quick note about shortening sleeves on a moto jacket. A good tailor will not mess with the wrist end of the sleeve with all that intricate detail. They will actually remove the sleeve at the shoulder and shorted from there. My son had this issue on a jacket and our amazing tailor took the excess length from the sleeve where it meets the shoulder. So much cleaner and simpler! You’d never know it was altered.
Your tearing up just made me tear up! Your authenticity is your best feature! Sending Reike love to you and all the humans watching this ❤️ ♥️
Hi Erin, being mindful of what we eat is so important. If I want to have some ice cream I will. Not gonna eat a pint, but food is supposed to not only nourish but bring joy too! Listening to the body and doing things we enjoy makes life worth living. I have been a subbie for a while now, and I admire your honesty and your understanding. Love you GF... Michele
Appreciate you more than you know, Michele!! xo
This was amazing!
I love the idea of information for healing. I've had a very tough year...and it ain't over yet. I'm really trying to be in the moment and not create unnecessary worry and anxiety. That's been difficult.
Sending light and love your way, Jenn. I think you will find these takeaways from the team helpful in moving your mind away from unnecessary worries: busbeestyle.com/easy-wellness-habits/ xo
👸🏽🇹🇹 I have two comments. The first is I admire your ability to separate what you provide professionally from what's personal. As a viewer I can listen from how does this apply to me and what I am doing. The second comment I have is I found that when it comes to managing my wellness those reasons are constantly being updated. Like I need to workout today because I will feel better or I needed eat this way so that I don't get side swiped by terrible hunger. Each day its something different. Erin you are a contribution.
You continue to be a wonderful source of inspiration - both fashion-wise & life-wise. Thank you for continuing to share YOU!
Erin, I love your outlook on health nutrition and exercise. I believe this is the way to go for me as well. You’re such a treasure and I appreciate you so much. Be well and stay blessed. ❤
It's an ongoing journey and difficult mindset shift to make... I'm working through it though, and truly appreciate YOU and your support! xo
Love hearing you speak about your team, you have such a big heart.
I love your channel. It makes me so happy to see you and hear you say things like hey I don’t drink, and I’m happy about it!! You are growing and changing, and sharing along the way and I appreciate it. I approach diet and exercise the way you explained and it really helped me! Life is short! ❤❤❤
Truly appreciate YOU and your support, Shelly! So glad you are here! xo
I'm very happy to hear that you & your team are content & work well together. And more importantly, you care so much for them. In this day of cut, cancel, slash jobs & bad news, it's very refreshing to see. Your chanel has excellent content & I thoroughly enjoy following along. Well done!! 🌟🥂🎉💖🤗
I'm so glad you're here and enjoyed this video, Michele! Appreciate you more than you know. This team of mine is truly the best... Can't say enough good things about them! Happy to share with you. xo
@@BusbeeStyle 🥰💝
Congratulations on your sobriety!!! It makes such a difference! I love your calm, peaceful spirit.
I love this video and the information you gave everyone. I myself no a person who puts on makeup every day either, it looks beautiful and everything but I can't do it every day. It is amazing that you have a good team, it is so important. I think a course about healing sounds like a great idea.
I loved this Q&A, Erin! And your philosophy on health, food and fitness is so refreshing and freeing. Thanks for sharing. ❤
Thank you Erin… Very pleasant spending time with you in your gorgeous dressing room /office… Wonderful content today ...thank you kindly. You are so calm, real, exuberant and confident. 🦋💎
I love the idea 💡 of the Healing from The Inside Out focus! It goes with the "Confidence" part of style and presentation. And it shows shows the depth part of our glow. ✨ I'm a trained Enneagram enthusiast and an excellent guide for helping people discover their Enneagram type style. Erin, you're Wonderful! Thanks for all you share! 💝
I appreciated you tearing up talking about your team and admire your kind of leadership built on real connection. Your views on fashion, health, and the process are authentic and down to earth. Always look forward to your posts!
Hi Erin, I can relate so much to you and your journey. Sending you and all the amazing people out there who help with and watch this channel, lots of love. Kindness and compassion to ourselves and others is living our best life 💕💖💕💖
Thanks so much for your sweet note. SO glad you are here in this amazing community! xo
Thank you! You are only style channel I follow. You are knowledgeable, giving, and fun about it all, and fashion is FUN. Even though I know my beauty, health, and style routines, I find your content and presentation always fresh and exciting. Keep up the great work!
SO glad you are here! Truly appreciate you more than you know! xo
Loved this update video. Erin you are so authentic and humble, there not many out there with your knowledge and talent to be so down to earth. You are one of my favorite🙏💝
Loving this relaxed vibe and seeing the team. I appreciate you and aways wish you the best.
Thank you, Erin, for being a bright and fun light in my day.
This was one of my favorite format videos! Hope to see MORE of these! Thank you Erin!😘
I’m not sure the person asking about moto jackets when you’re petite will see this. However, I’m 4’11” and I’ve found it very difficult to find moto jackets to fit my arm length. I’ve recently discovered the AllSaints Balfren jacket to be perfect. The sleeves have an open zipper, not gusseted. It makes all the difference. You can open the zipper all the way or just slightly. I now have 3 of them because they work so well for me.
Thanks for sharing! That's a great jacket! xo
Hi Erin...Love this. I am always interested in more about my favorite fairy stylist. I still wear make up everyday and put on jeans..decent shirt ( it is the age we grew up in ) ...rather than joggers, only because I don't have the cool ones you do or pretty lounge outfits. I quit labeling food as good or bad, quit always doing keto, quit obsessing over every bad thing I ate and lost fifteen pounds and kept it off. Like you I was tired of doing that and now food is what nourishes me and to be honest I grew up with good garden vegetables and fruit from our fruit trees so I do have a pretty healthy diet, but I will never be thin and I don't care. I try to get my steps in and rake and push mow in the summer and fall and exercise and walk in the winter. I just want to stay strong. Thanks Erin for your honesty and your commitment to your subs. You are the very best. I still say you in those cool joggers, and that black top is an image you should get framed for the hubby for Christmas!!! Love u friend !!!
You are the best, Rita! Always appreciate you and your sweet words. I'm so glad you're doing well on this journey too. Cheering you on over here! Maybe you should put a pair of cool joggers on your Christmas list this year... ;) xo
Thank you for talking about your wellness plan. Love it. Inspirational!
Great video! You have to enjoy life and not worry about every last thing you eat. I try and do good 5 days and weekends enjoy eating out. I walk every day mostly for exercise. 😉 works for me. Being easy in life is wonderful.
It’s so nice to see that you are in a more relaxed and surrendered frame of mind right now, Erin.
Appreciate you so much, Rebecca! I'm so glad you are here and enjoyed this one! xo
Would like to see you do a Busbee Style “Coast to Coast” - perhaps collaborating or joining forces with other style media experts across the country for our age demographic-also continuing on any wellness path that helps us stay focused on feeling our best and looking our best too.
Yes on everything healing!! ❤
Hi Erin (and fabulous team), I loved this video thank you for sharing it with us. I admire your approach to parenthood and thinking what wonderful humans you are developing, so great! 💫 I especially love your outlook on wellness and after dealing with many hardships of my own this year, I have finally landed on the same page. It also sends such a healthy message to your daughter. xoxo 💛💖
Truly appreciate your kind words, Gretchen! xo
I have a solution for the too-long sleeve with the zipper detail and the wrist!!!!! After over a year of not wearing a jacket that I loved, I came up with the idea and thought it was either genius or...impossible. But my alterations lady had no problem doing it so it turned out to be GENIUS. I had her ruche the sleeves with elastic at the elbow. Essentially pushing up the sleeves permanently. it worked like a charm!
Wow! What a great way to fix that problem, Ashley. I'm so glad it worked out so well for you! Thanks for sharing. xo
It was great hearing about your team, I’ve seen them on your site. Very uplifting to hear about what a positive environment it is… ☺️
Really enjoy your channel and content, always look forward to Wednesday.
Thank you! ❤👍🏼
I am SO glad you enjoyed this video! Appreciate YOU more than you know! xo
Thanks for a great video. I also am doing the same approach to diet and exercise and I’m 65. Glad you all got to experience Miraval. I went 5 times to all different locations. ❤
I would love to see a class on healing as it relates to one's style and confident presentation. I want a healthy mind-set to go along with a great look. Looking forward to hearing more.
Thanks so much for your comment, Kim! SO glad to hear this is something that interests you. Truly appreciate you! xo
Thanks for the update. It was great having a peek at your teams.
Thanks Erin! You are such a joy to watch and always sharing such great tips on style and LIFE!!
You seem to me that you are relaxed and feeling good. Great to see this change.
Thanks for the Q & A and the updates! You team looks fab❤
Great content Erin! I am with you on the diet, obsessing trying to keep the same body we had in our 30s is not the best approach. I eat healthy most of the time and try to stay active, I am quite happy with the way I look at my age.
I have ditched skinny jeans as I also find them not comfortable now, loving flares and bootcut styles. And…why did you show the scarf again 😂😂 I almost bought the same or pretty similar one on Poshmark but someone was faster than me. Love scarves!
Alicia, well said. Eat healthy, stay active is the right way to go instead of going extreme on dieting or exercise. It is a way of life and very easy to maintain. I have been like this since colleague. I am happy with the way I look, but my body is definitely not the one I had in my early youth. There is nothing wrong with that. It is natural.
So glad you enjoyed this one, Alicia and I love your approach as well! Sending you the best of luck on your scarf hunt! xo
I'm so glad I found you! You are very inspiring and honest!😉
Thank you SO much for your support! I am honored that you're here and so glad you're enjoying my channel! xo
Maybe you have addressed this before, but have you ever had a color analysis done? And what do you think of them? I'm curious if this has an impact on the colors I like (in general) and why I feel a certain way when I wear certain colors, or when I look at a color and it doesn't call to me.
Curious on this too !
Great question! I went over that question right here in Question #3 of my first Q&A video: ua-cam.com/video/4frF-ysSBHA/v-deo.html (Spoiler Alert: I don't believe in the whole color analysis process!) It sounds like you're already conscious of what colors you prefer to wear - that's the key! xo
You said you take liothyronine for your thyroid. How do you feel it works for you and do you take multiple doses a day? I have Hashimoto’s hypothyroidism, (25 years in) and I take both the T4 and T3 supplementation, and my doctor just increased the T3 to see if it would help with weight loss. Wondering how your experience has been being on T3 only. Thanks!
Hi Erin ,I am a lot older than you and I have had a hysterectomy. I have been on natural hormone replacement therapy for 20 years. You take a blood test and you find out where your hormone levels are at and they put little pellets under your skin that last for 4 to 5 months. It’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me. Without them I was depressed, etc. etc. If you’re interested you can always research it. I love your videos. I quit drinking 30 years ago not because I had a problem just because I was over it. I just had better things to do.
Thank you for sharing! I'm so glad to hear how much that has helped you to feel your best. xo
Erin, thank you for this, very useful as usual, just one thing!: you shouldn't take your hat off as a guest in a wedding. Not even at the table. That's the etiquette
Hi Erin ! Would love a video in what coats/jackets to wear with different outfits. Specifically dressier outfits ! I always struggle with what to wear over my dressy clothes !
With dressier outfits, I'd go with a long-line trench coat, either right at or slightly longer than the length of your dress. If your dress is maxi length, either a medium or long length coat will be great. If you're somewhere really cold, here's some more specific tips for you! ua-cam.com/video/NHzGamuvvEM/v-deo.html
Yes, to a healing course!
Thank you Erin. You are a lovely and courageous woman. Thank you for your honesty, truth is always in style!, 🙂⭐🙏🏼❤
You are so welcome! I'm honored to have women like YOU here in this amazing community! xo
I honestly felt as if I was drinking my coffee with you in Colorado.
Please tell us how to style the scoop stiletto bootie you featured a while back. ¡Gracias! ❤
Erin, great video! I truly appreciate you and the gift of knowledge that you share with all of us. You have an amazing team that you clearly appreciate! I always feel uplifted and inspired after your videos! ❤
Awe man, as an avid handbag lover, your sample looked absolutely GORGEOUS.
I'll buy the sample lol!
You're so inspiring. You deserve all the success in the world.
Wow, you are so sweet, Marica! Truly appreciate you and your support! xo
What is the name/ place of purchase for the scarf you have on? I love it!
I enjoy your videos so much. Need to post on that Facebook with Bees very soon.. Got back from my holiday and loved the community helping me with my wardrobe planning. Time to show the results.
They're so great over there in the Hive! SO glad to hear you're enjoying the community and that you had a great time on your trip!! xo
Headed for Denver this weekend. Small town gal having to dress city. Opera and hockey game in one weekend.
The carnivore lifestyle has stopped my menopause symptoms and insulin resistance. Easy for me because I don’t think about food anymore.
Intermittent fasting has worked for me. To each her own.
Hope you had a great weekend, Maggie!! xo
@@BusbeeStyle greatly enjoyed Regelleto and Avs hockey game. Dressed like a rock star thanks to your tips.
Great video. Did you do one on your new build new home? Would be great to hear how that went from design to finish.
😢Hi Erin! Thanks for another great video. I have (two) suggestions: In regards to your new (style made simple course)
1. I personally would be more apt to purchase this IF you also offered say 5 or 6 hours of your own ‘personal style advice’ (via Skype or text/email) where ‘you’ (not your team) answer our most important style faux pas/questions/dilemmas. I joined your style fb group years ago, Thinking that that was going to be something similar. But quickly realized it was like the blind leading the blind, haha. You are the expert and sometimes we just want 30 seconds of your raw and honest personal style opinion/recommendations.
2. I would love to see an updated new video on how to Google search for specific style pieces and where/how to find them, for the best price.
Thanks again, Erin
I appreciate your feedback, Elisabeth. xo
Erin thanks for all your wonderful advice. 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you for sharing yourself with us. You are loved.. I would love to see a course on health from the inside out.
Truly appreciate your support!! xo
Thank you❤ . Gracias y besos desde España.
Gracias, Mariel!
Always find your videos really helpful, sincere and relatable. I feel the same way as you when it comes to choosing nourishing foods, and exercising in ways that meet the body’s needs rather than following a rigid routine. Learning to trust and surrender is so helpful. … I do have a question related to the hair segment. Could you recommend a shampoo and conditioner for menopausal women that can help restore some of the youthfulness in the hair? Do such products even exist? Lol Thank you!
Thanks so much for your sweet words and your support! The thing with hair... is that it's so different for us all. Here's my top tips for thicker hair though: ua-cam.com/video/Ul0lIoWzqJY/v-deo.html I hope this helps!! xo
Love this so much! Thank you for treating us to your smart thoughts and ideas!So glad to have signed up!
So glad I tunned in tonight...loved You sharing and the little tips as always regarding what's up with the latest fashions.
Truly appreciate YOU, Marnie! xo
I'm under five feet tall and learned to hem my own pants and jackets. Recently I hemmed a Moto jacket with zipper detailing. All I did was hem it by sewing in the extra length inside, and then unzipped that inside part and let the zipper hang on the outer part of the sleeves. It looks believable. :)
Wow! Impressive, Elizabeth!
YOU CAN LEAVE YOUR HAT ON is one of the BEST songs ever❣️👌
Love to have more healing!!!!! And the ones you did sounded very good to
Me!!!!!
I love your curtain bangs! So flattering. Thank you for sharing how you style them 😍
I could listen to u everday so humble n kind. Thank u
I’m a long time fan and your channel only improves! ❤️
Appreciate you more than you know, Judi! xo
Your white on white rose vase decor looks fabulous . Are they the preserved roses? I need them
Thanks so much, Jill! I really wanted to keep things minimalistic and clean in this space. Here's a link to these roses: go.magik.ly/ml/1ntck/ And you can check out more details of my whole "cloffice" space here in this blog: busbeestyle.com/cloffice-work-from-home/
For question #8, this may sound crazy but I have one of the best cobblers just a couple of towns away. This man has mended so many things for me including leather purses. I'm certain if you found the right one, they could easily shorten the sleeves of a moto jacket and replace the zipper as well. Thought I'd throw that out there.
That's wonderful, Tammie! He sounds like a talented cobbler for sure. Thanks for sharing! xo
Hi Erin, I have been watching you for years now. I liked your today’s look I just feel like middle part snatched back pony would have looked good in my my opinion otherwise that top is so pretty on you. Happy holidays✨
Hi Erin, there must be lots of products that are easier to design and make than bags, Michele Wang had scarves made. Anything you turn your heart to will work out, maybe bags were not quite the right thing? My intuition tells me that you have a book or two in you as well xx
Thanks Erin, so nice to see the team! Maybe we could see some styling videos with the team? Different body types? Just a thought.
I would love that!
You're just a very very Very nice human being. God bless you always.
First I want to thank you for the lovely video. Secondly I love your new approach to life. More zen. I need more zen…. And I think more of us ladies as we age
You are just amazing! To see a beautiful woman giving us such wonderful advice and also having such exceptional good tast in every category is awesome! Thank you kindly for being so amazing!
Wow, thank you so much for your kind message. Truly appreciate YOU! xo
I would love a video about make up tutorial. Thank you for your all your style videos, I enjoyed them so much. Blessings.
Here's a recent makeup tutorial that I think you'll enjoy, Doris! ua-cam.com/video/rCF-I34Kclc/v-deo.html Thanks for watching! xo
