I'm your grandma (i.e. her age group) and we wore view number 1 with the mini in the late 60s🌹And I loved how it looked and felt. Love your videos Lydia❤️❤️❤️
Gosh I miss the 1960's fashions❤😊
I also love the fashion of the 60s. These suits short jackets with mini skirts were fabulous. But honestly, if you are still slim and you can wear them, why not? I personaly don't care about what is on trend or not. To me what is "on trend" always is what I like and suits me.
Yep totally agree. Chanel 60s style jacket and mini is the way forward IMHO.
Maybe just a slightly longer mini skirt, just above the knee? That's more of a 1965 vibe
But you might have been 20 years old or younger when you wore that! It isnt a grown up look today though, for an adult woman.
I love the educational spin on your channel. It’s so refreshing from typical fashion UA-camrs who are just doing hauls and pushing new products. Many of us busy have lives and just want someone to tell us what looks good 😅 you are the best resource I’ve found ❤
So pleased to hear they’re back in the spotlight, the wide trouser and cropped jacket is soooo much more flattering for my short legs 😂 grateful after years of blazers and skinnies!!
My legs are short too. But I feel people don't take me seriously when I wear cropped jacket... :-(
This pear shaped short legged woman agrees.
I stick to crops mostly because of my petite size and mentained my weight
@amandaamanda5398 I agree, shorter women are sometimes looked at as childlike. Very irritating especially in the workplace! But,,, the cropped jacket is actually a beacon of sophistication! Think Coco Channel, the original style guru. The collar-less tweedy version is perfect for work, whether it's a suit or just the jacket with a skirt or trousers.
A few months ago I found a beautiful vintage cropped jacket at a vintage shop so that goes to show that you're right it is a timeless piece
I loved this video because this length of jacket suit me much better than longer jackets. All your tips are really useful and I can easily identify now why an outfit will not work. Love your videos! 🥰
Lydia, I just love you! You’re always posting in synchronicity with clothing questions I’ve had recently. Like literally not even 10 minutes ago I was thinking about how I would wear a cropped jacket I have and then see this ❤ xoxo
Advice from a grandma: you are demonstrating the 1/3 - 2/3 rule of proportion. If you have 1/3 of your vertically visual clothing on top, then wear 2/3 on the bottom and balance the fit. As in cropped jacket with longer skirt. You got it!
Truly a friendlier shape for us petite women.
Thank you!!
I'm only 5'1 and even though I love the comfort of oversized pieces, I look like I'm drowning in my clothes.☹️ I'm really implementing a lot of the advice you provide, and I find I look more polished and put together, yet fun and fresh. Thanks again!
Could you please make a video dedicated to us, very short/ small framed women?? Please!🙏
How would we best wear the current trends?
Yes that would be perfect, it's not easy being petite style-wise, especially when you're as clueless as me - Lydia is a genius at this in my eyes 😍😆

Styles FUN!!
Thank you so much for this video! I wanted one of these cropped off white tweed/boucle jackets so desperately. I thrifted one and updated it with gold & mother of pearl buttons, but I did not like how it looked with the usual mini dress. I felt defeated and it hung in the closet ever since. I just tried it with a tucked in thin slate gray knit and navy flared trousers and I love it. I will get to wear it a lot now thank you for this video.
Lydia, you are the best fashion educator out there! I enjoy your reels on insta as well as your longer videos here, they are concise, perfectly illustrated, full of useful info. And you have such a stylish and well put together wardrobe that I aspire to! My personal style has improved so much since I found you, keep up the great work!
Loved this inspiration session for cropped jackets. I have three - one vintage 1960s cream & gold - that I can start teaming in a much more stylish way now, thanks to you! I, for one, would really like to see some educational sessions on vintage pieces...
Every time I'm choosing something to wear now, I have Lydia's voice in my head telling me to balance out the top or bottom. It's great haha
Just brought a cropped jacket secondhand. This video is just in time for that. Thanks!
I really love all of these outfits. You are staying on style to your frame . Really beautiful choices!!
Really helpful video Lydia and you always explain things so well, THANK YOU XX
Great video and your scarf looks lovely. Is there any possibility you could do a video on how to wear / tie scarves of different sizes and materials ( wool / silk) that would be so helpful 😊
OG here. Following you since you had less than 10k subs! Love how far you have come
Great lesson Lydia. They are back but can be tricky to style. Thanks x
Super helpful Lydia! Your style videos are the best and it solved so many of my fashion dilemmas!! ❤ thank you!
Excellent video Lydia,so thorough and such a succinct and professional delivery.
I love this thank you, I have a few of these so this is very helpful. I absolutely love the lemon one you are wearing and putting the scarf that way. I love feminine classy fashion, it’s great to see this back.
I have mine on today at work and was sure about my combination - but I did it!!
Adore your videos, thanks to you I know how to dress and why something doesn’t work, which is the KEY!❤
I absolutely love your taste in clothes. Thank you so much for your wonderful suggestions.
To a size 4_to 6_e,xcept during pregnancy I am 91 now and belong to old school of classic fashion sense Chanel is my favorite of all had my jackets costume tailored to fit my budget pants and palazzos I prefer the now skinny and jeans are not for me However whatever one feels best in their own style and taste then go for it Thanks
Love your videos! I learn so much about styling from you. Thank you for all the information and inspiration!
An excellent video on cropped jackets. Thank you, Lydia.
It’s so funny. I was thinking earlier today about how to style my cropped jackets/blazers. 😊 Your video couldn’t have come at a better time! Thank you very much. ❤
Love the scarf and the way you’ve tied it with the jacket! 👏
This video was exactly what I needed! Thank you, Lydia. 🤗
Thank you! I’ve just bought a fantastic cropped tweed jacket in turquoise in the Luisa Spagnoli sale. At age 69, with white hair, I certainly don’t want to look like a grandmother. I am thinking straight leg black leather trousers or white jeans. Thanks for the tips
I actually like the combo of pairing skinny jeans with a cropped jacket. It tones down the outfit while still looking sleek and smart.
Thank you sooo much!! I have a couple cropped jackets and was looking for a video from you on how to style!!
Love the short jackets! Classy looking!
I'm following your channel since long and I'm so glad to see your fresh and innovating ideas in terms of styling! Thank you and congrats is all I can say!💕⭐💗👏👏
Gosh thank you!!! I bought a Chanel dupe and have been dying to wear it, but didn’t know how! Putting it in my queue for this week!
Thank you another great video. I was just looking at a new cropped jacket, thanks for the tips ❤
Lydia, this is so valuable right now. The store are filled with the cropped Chanel jackets. My mom taught me how to do proportions just the same as this video. Basically it's long over short, or short over long. Short over short looks too skimpy, and long over long looks sloppy. Of course you explain it better!
Yesss! I love a good Lesson with Lydia. Always enjoy your style theories behind the outfits. The “why” behind the wear is such a fascinating psychology. Great vid!
Very helpful. The images you showed us illustrated your points clearly. It is hard to talk about the nuance of a well put together outfit and one that is problematic.
I love the look with the grey trousers.
great tips Lydia as always!
Love for all the illustrations, they are helpful ❤
Fantastic video! Loved it!!!!
Lydia, would it be possible to do a similar dos and don’t video about fitted blazers? It seems that those are coming back too - I have a few in my collection from many years ago but not sure how to style. Thanks so much!! ❤
I love your outfit and this topic. Thank you!
Justo lo que necesitaba. Gracias por los tips.
Thank you. I especially like the outfit with the scarf you’re wearing.
Can you do an updated video on your slicked back bun like in this video? It looks so chic 😍 love all your videos!!
Thank you for your practical guidance that is comfortable and classic!
Just sooo good and helpful. Thank you so much.
Love love those videos
Just purchased a crop jacket thank you so much, great ideas
I am so excited when I see your new video has come out!
Love the educational content!
Thank you. Great ideas.
Great “Take aways!” Thank you!❤
I went to Massimo Dutti today and bought one of their cardigans. It’s not a store I regularly shop so I loved the recommendation to check out their sweaters. Thank you!
Thank you! Very useful ❤️🙏
Very happy if I can find cropped jackets and cardigans more easily than rummaging in every thrift store and charity shop to find one! they are my favorite jackets!
Wonderful outfits
This video is so helpful! I have 2 tweed cropped jackets and no idea on how to style them.
I really love your content.
Bravo! Fantastic job
Great video‼️
Thank you for doing this video, I love cropped jacket because I’m petite. I love the scarf around your neck. That’s how I wear it.
I love structured, tailored clothing.
I always opt for the most elegant version of choices in my wardrobe.
I never wear denim, unless gardening or horse riding.
Your videos are always a wealth of great tips, tricks, and helpful ideas, lovely Lydia.
Love Princess Holly of Australia 🕊🌿 hairdresser and style enthusiast🕊🌿🌾🌲🌳🍀🌴🌱🕊🌿🌾🌲🌳👸
😊
Wonderful video!Congratulations and thanks
Muito esclarecedor. Obrigada.
I think so much before buy something new now... I always think if I can wear it years and years to come... I think I have learned so much with your videos that I'm dressing and feeling better dressed now... I had a lot of possible combinations with clothing I already have that I didn't knew it will work...
I agree with your look on tops to slide under jackets yep
Great video
Lovely content as always!!! I would like to propose that you try to create a reel or video on how to style ultra crop jackets -shorter than the ones you showed on this video- like the ones who end just below the bust and above the waistline.❤
Thankyou very much 😘🥰🥰
I like this video. The visuals are really helpful. Please discuss height issues and it's impact on proportion and style choices.
Thankyou x
Thanks Lydia, funny I JUST got that Massimo Dutti cardi! And I love it.
Could you do a video on the different types of jeans and how to style. It seems the loser low rise jeans are all in the shops at the moment. Thank you
Grey leg trousers yesss
I like the stylistic effect of cropped jackets & the Chanel style, but I hate the traditional Chanel material of old grandma couch/curtains. It's hideous to me but I love the cut. A crop jacket with boot cut, straight, or wide leg jeans or trousers are so elegant.
Could you do a tutorial on how to wear scarves? You look so elegant and sophisticated in scarves! I love the way you wear them!❤️✨
Would you be so kind as to do a video on styling tulle skirts dark colored skirts as well as light? I love your styles!
Thank you Lydia. Could you please share how you tie your scarfs? The silk scarf you’re wearing in this video looks great.
For us long torso and short legs gals...go a 3/4 sleeve and cropped jacket esp boxy ...with an A line midi/ maxi...skirt or straight slim or very high waisted bell pants.....magic!!!
Godspeed

✨️Lydia: Love your Do/Don't visuals📷 & smart analysis. You're helping sharpen my style 💪muscles on details I might've overlooked, & challenge me to suspend my disbelief.
🤯Never thought I'd pick the look that came closest to "lady who lunches🍽 " 〰️esp since I hate🤬 creamy off-white & don't wear jeans👖〰️ but the look w/the scarf is perfection💋.
🤗Skirts are my jam, so thanks for including the maxi that could've come straight outta my closet. Next time: how about a tea length pleated skirt & knee length pencil (or a-line skirt). Appreciate inspo to make stuffy corp suit-sets more casual.

Great tips, as always! Could you do a video on how to wear Mary-janes (I'm referring to flat ballet-like ones)? I recently purchased a pair, and I am so happy that they're available again(!!), but I struggle with pairing them, not wanting to look too feminine or girly. It would be much appreciated! Your style is amazing!
No matter what is trending I never included the skinny jeans in my wardrobe...I think they have a cheap looking, besides you have to be extremely skinny to get away with it....thank God the trousers are back, it looks so relaxed and classy...great video 👏
Thank You for this video! You are always inspirational, you deliver information fast respecting viewers time, everything is perfect on your channel!!! Keep it up 👍 wish you to get 10.000.000 subscribers ❤️
So sorry to hear that your postponing building your house. Its true prices are crazy these days. Love your videos!!!
Goes to the cellar and pulls out her two cropped jackets and one cardi 😁
Thank you
Did you see the spring summer Armani Prive show???? Cropped jackets galore!!!! Yay!
Спасибо большое 🙌 за рекомендации 👍
Absolutely 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Loved this and love the cropped jackets!
We need an occasional trendy pieces vlog!!! ❤🎉
nice! ty^^
Got adidas white trainers 👟 yesterday due to your recommendation. Such great value in comparison to the designer brands so I’m really happy.
I have a collection of Stan Smiths, including some limited editions. They are fantastic, modern and comfortable
And finally a t-shirt under an haute Chanel jacket is great for giving what can be quite a mumsy garment a more youthful vibe. I would avoid the scarf, both the big one which fights with and swamps the cropped look, and the silk scarf wrapped around the neck. I own quite a few Hermès scarves, and stylistically their sportier styling (in the classic sense) is incongruent with any Chanel-style jacket.
💯% agree that an ordinary workhorse type tee (that swings slightly shape skimming) is the smart way to modernise this matronly 🤶 old 💲money cropped jacket.
🤔Think the fussy formality is enlivened by the utility of ordinary cotton, esp. when paired w/a denim bottom. 👖 I don't do jeans, but I could envision swapping it for a straighter maxi skirt. Finished off w/a classic white leather sneaker too.
😉I also saw a woman pull off a more activewear casual look in a cropped corporate suit set. Under the racy red jacket she donned a body-hugging wafer thin navy zippered hoodie pullover, & tucked it into the matching knee length pencil skirt. It was a slightly tweedy texture w/tiny threaded navy & yellow dots. She added navy slip-on leather Vans & a petite leather backpack/purse. Maybe not something you'd wear to an office, but it definitely constituted streetwear 🆒️ chic that gave an ageless vibe.
😃I like the scarf that Lydia wears in the thumbnail👌. Again, I think that elegance plays well w/the casual outfit that she styled.

Love your video. How do you tie that scarf? I love that look with the jacket!
Nice
Hello Lydia, I would love to have a series about body shape, it would be great for a lot of your viewership ❤ big love from Canada 🇨🇦
