I love the chat - that’s why people are subscribing so keep “doing you” and please don’t be put off by unfair negative criticism. PS loving the hair
Thank you very much xx
Love the fact you take time to chat to us, carry on being you xx
Hi Denise, thank you. I know that I enjoy the 'chat' of some people that I watch. I will do my best to carry on being me, it's the only way I know. I've come to realise at this age I can't pretend to be anything other than me. xx
Reading the comments so far I am so pleased how many newbie’s there are to your channel. As an old timer of a week or so we’re getting the word out about your charm, realistic acceptance of age, not to mention your fashion sense. Your style is impeccable as is your smile.
Oh, don’t stop chatting!! I love your chats. 💛
😊 thank you x
I enjoy the chats, I don't go out much so watching people like yourself realy keeps me company 😊
Hi Diane thank you very much. xx
Totally agree - about the hair !
I can feel when I have a haircut feels lighter
Funny isn't it xx
It is x
Gosh Helen I also love the chat. It really is like sitting with a good friend and I usually have a cuppa when watching you. Love the hauls too 🙏👍❤️
I’m a new follower too but love your content. I’m a regular customer of Roman. Most of my wardrobe from there as I’m a 16-18. Met a lovely lady on holiday who currently works in a Roman shop. Apparently there is far more online than in the shops. Sorry to hear there’s been negative comments. Try not to let it get you down. Plenty more who like and support you. X
Thank you very much xx
I have recently stumbled on your account. I’m a 70 year old size 16. My husband had MS and was wheelchair bound. So I always wore trousers as this was most convenient. Unfortunately I lost him 4 years ago. You have inspired me to get back into dresses. The tip about chub rub pants was a god send. You always look fabulous.
Hi Gail, thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. The shorts have changed my dress wearing life! Thanks for the compliment, hope you've subscribed. And enjoy your new found dress wearing! xx
The chat is a lovely lead in to your content and you are very natural in front of the camera .
So please dont stop the chat, loving your videos ...
Ah, thank you, nice of you to takethe time to comment xx
I adore the second orange dress. X
I agree. It looked great on her. Pretty color too.
@@courbry123 Thank you x
Thank you very much xx
Only my second time watching you. The chat is great. Also pleased to see clothes in a decent size-thanks. Keep chatting!
I will, thank you xx
Hi, really enjoyed the video. The 2nd dress looked lovely on you - brought out your tan! I think the 'chat' is a lovely way to start the video, as you said, if others don't like it, they can fast forward! Thanks for sharing x
Thank you very much xx
Loved the shirred dress. I have never seen Roman originals so just had a browse and ordered 2 sale dresses for a future holiday somewhere warm. You reminded me about discount vouchers so saved myself even more. Free delivery to Australia is a treat. Thanks so much.
Oh wow that's great to hear. Thanks for watching xx
Hair looks lovely Helen and love the ‘chat’ really enjoy the content, agree the sizing on Roman is always a bit snug. Loved the first dress.
Thank you very much xx
Thank you for this haul, we have a TJ Hughes’s in Liverpool which sell Roman originals at greatly reduced prices. Kim an co on qvc have lots of jumpsuits in a stretchy material that makes it so easy to go to the loo in, no wet tops lol. Keep the chats in it helps us get to know you and what you think of fit an material type. Your vlog was crystal clear today except for orchid add on x
Thank you Denise. That's good to know if I'm ever up that way. xx
HI Helen. I am a fairly new ‘groupie’. I too hadn’t heard of Roman. I thought the first dress looked really stylish on you. Please continue with your chats and ignore any negativity. I live alone and watching you is like having a friend pop round as well as the useful information you give. Thank you!
Thanks Corinne, that's a lovely thing to say xx
Loved the tip about the leg tan. It’s brilliant. More make up tips please. What tan do you wear on arms etc x
Hi Veronica, thank you. The tan on my body is real.... I tan easily. My face however is not, I use tan drops. I can't remember the brand but I'll do a little video on that soon. xx
Hi Helen, I’m a new subscriber and loving your Chanel. You have a great style and being a size 18 myself and in my 50’s it’s lovely to get some inspiration. Love the chat, I’ve yet to browse earlier videos to get to know you a bit more but notifications are on and I’ll be looking forward to seeing more of you xxx
Hi Caroline, thank you very much. Have a great weekend. xx
I like your hauls as they are not gifted like some of the other youtubers I watch, and I think you give a much more honest review.
I also enjoy your chats 😊
Thank you very much xx
Love the dresses, number 1 is my fav. but they all looked good on you especially with your tan. Please keep chatting!
Thank you! Will do! xx
Keep on chatting like you say they can always fast forward, I actually loved the second dress on you that is definitely your colour size up if you need a bit more give in the skirt area, the green print also looked good. Loving your channel. X
Thank you xx
I love the chat and would have thought people would know to fast forward rather than asking you to chat less!! I haven't come across Roman Originals before so it was interesting to see what they have to offer. I thought you looked great in all the dresses.😃
Me too hahaha ;-). Thank you very much xx
I have just bought my first Roman Original top. I love the fact that it has discount codes and free post and packing. I will look again some time online. It's worth a look sometime. (I don`t and never have worked for them) lol.
@@mazinwonderland3077 - hope you love it when it arrives xx
Love the pearl necklace and earrings; lovely with your navy blue patterned top
Thank you very much xx
Thank you. I like Roman Originals. I bought my mother of the bride outfit in 2020 from there and a christening outfit last year. I find their dresses great.
Thanks for watching xx
Keep on chatting, it’s a nice introduction to your vlogs. The colour of the second dress really suited you, the green patterned dress looked the nicest on you, oh and your hair looks lovely xx
Thank you very much xx
Hi Helen, keep on chatting! I have only recently become a subscriber to your channel, but I'm enjoying your content. Keep on doing you! Take care. X
I will, I'm the only version of me that I know how to be, hahaha, thank you xx
Oo I love Roman - have purchased several items including 3 wedding outfits! We have a Roman shop in our town. That turquoise blue/green print one really suits you colourwise
Thank you xx
Liked the top you had on today and loved the new haircut
It's actually a dress from M and S from last year. Thank you for the compliement xx
New subscriber here and I enjoy your chat, Helen. I have just made my first purchase from Roman Originals. I paid £22 with free post and packing so I was pleased. I washed it by hand as it had a slight `chemical` smell, line dried it and it`s good to wear now. I really liked dress number 5, very pretty colour.
Thank you, glad you are enjoying the vids. Enjoy your new clothes xx
You tube recommended your Newlook video to me. I subscribed straight away and ordered 3 of the dresses you showed.
Brilliant! I hope you enjoy them xx
I buy a lot from Roman Originals I like the tops they usually cover the bottom area. Their trousers are great come in sort lengths too. Love your videos
Thank you very much xx
Love the hair. Like the chatting. The first one was nice. Don't change your videos they are great. I look forward to seeing them. Have a good day. Xx
Thank you very much xx
I thought I was the only one that had got part of my clothing in the toilet. Trying to navigate clothing with hems that are longer in back ( and forgetting) ! Glad I was at home too. I love the dresses you choose.
Haha it's a nightmare isn't it!? Thanks for watching xx
How rude of them! That's a big plus for me as it's like chatting with a friend and nice to hear your stories. I loved the second dress on you and your figure was gorgeous in it. You also suit the green. Keep doing what you're doing 👌 I've had a few things from Roman over the years and quite happy with them. Kim & Co from qvc does lovely jumpsuits that are so easy to get on and out of 🌟
Thank you Sandra, I will. Thanks for the QVC tip too xx
Hi 👋 I’m a new subscriber & I found your video very friendly & chatty which in this day & age is quite refreshing 😀 as an older member I love watching clothing hauls & I think you look good in most of the dresses so thank you ,looking forward to more 😀.
Thanks for subbing! and for th kind comments xx
Don't mind your chat love your hair and the 1st dress ..keep!
The green dotty dress is definitely a great colour on you shame about the sleeves
Thank you for taking the time to comment xx
Helen love your friendly chat Hun checkout the dresses on Apricot sale there are some fabulous ones very cheaply too
Thank you- I will xx
Just found your channel and enjoying your content, I’m about the same age and size as you so it’s nice to see different things that I wouldn’t normally try.. As regards to the chub rub shorts I’ve found a super product it’s called “Runglide” anti chafe Her. It’s sort of like a deodorant stick you twist it up to use and just apply to your inner thigh. A game changer no need to wear shorts just your ordinary underwear. I just keep it in my bag if I’m out and about just reapply as needed. Costs about £11 but my last stick lasted me 2 summers.
Hi Brenda, thanks for watching. That's interesting, I'll have a look at that. xx
I’ve bought several cotton dresses from them a couple of years ago. Great quality
Yes they are - thanks for watching xx
Someone has suggested using a dental floss brush to wipe some mascara off your big brush to use on your bottom lashes. Haven’t tried it myself yet but it sounds like a good idea. 💐💐
It does, would have saved me money too..... heyho! xx
Enjoyed the try -ons and the chat.
Roman clothing is a bit hit and miss with fabrics I have bought a few things over the years
I use a small dental brush and load it with mascara to apply to bottom lashes,,works brilliantly,
Good idea, thank you for taking the time to comment xx
It’s funny someone else mentioned you switching sides and what I noticed was hair parted on different side or am I imagining things?? I like the blue chambray shirt and it can be worn as an open with tank top or as a shirt with turtleneck under - I agree on blue jumper - - good seeing you, as always!! 🌸💕
Thank you xx
Don’t care for the black denim. The green is quite nice. I like the chats and don’t think they are too long.
Thank you for taking the time to comment xx
Have just found your channel and I'm thrilled your a breath of fresh air I am the same age and size so can personally identify with you and the hauls don't disappear like fawn figures it out I think you need a thick skin to be in this business God bless xx
Hi Delia, thank you. I try and feel sorry for people that have got nothing nice to say. xx
Hi Helen, Roman’s ‘occasion wear’ is worth a look, other than that I find their style a bit samey…. Your haircut looks great, I had mine cut in a similar style during the heatwave for exactly the same reasons. Fed up of the weight and headaches. Oh and your orchids are fabulous, I just trimmed mine after flowering. Fingers crossed they sprout again 😊
Thank you xx
I like the chat beforehand. X
I love little cultural differences! Our equivalent to 'old Mother Riley' is 'that’s a bit Nana Hick' if something is a bit dowdy/shapeless/aging/unflattering
Interesting.
Thank you xx
So glad to have found you very recently. I am living in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. We can shop at M & S in Canada.
That's lovely - so nice having comments from all over the world xx
Liking the new style, you have lovely hair.
Thank you very much xx
just found you on u tube Helen absolutely love you so real shop the same shops I do when you do your try ons it's so real women I will look forward to your posts x
Thanks so much. Welcome to the channel, I hope you've subscribed. xx
I also love the chat Helen 😀My favorites are the black and white. and the Boden dress “. The black and white is very flattering on you and the colours in the Boden are beautiful 😍 Also meant to ask if you checked out the Thigh Rescue stick by Megababe for protecting your thighs ?
Sorry but I commented on wrong video 😂😂This was meant for your Marks and Spencer haul on August 6th 😃
Hi Colette, don't worry about where you comment I hopefully would have realised.... You're not the first person to do that. Thank you xx
PS: I haven't checked it out personally but I have recommended it to others. I will do though xx
Love the chat Helen ❤
Thank you xx
I love your chat, liked the first dress, ignore the haters
Thank you Rosie xx
Hi Mary Jo. Your hair looks great, it suits you ❤️
Oh thank you! xx
Helen luv your chat and your vlogs ignore the negativity🥰
Hi Heather, thank you. I will. xx
YOU LOOK GREAT IN BLACK AND WHITE AND BLUE 😊🤩🤩🤩
I have only been on the Hythe Ferry once and we walked down the pier. At the time it was free if you had an OAP bus pass and I was annoyed with myself for not having mine with me. I think now you have to pay but the trip over is very pleasant and for the workers going to Southampton it is a nice start to the day. As a commuter from Wallasey across the Mersey to Liverpool when I was young I did enjoy my daily boat ride.
It is lovely that's true, thanks for taking the time to comment xx
We have one of their shops near us and I agree that their sizes are on the small side. I loved the first two dresses on you and the green spotted one really suited. I really didn’t like the black dress
Thank you for taking the time to comment xx
Luv the second dress you suit the colour and the square neckline
Thank you very much xx
That’s where the waist is supposed to fit and I think it looks absolutely lovely on you .I’ve just made one like the black one and the gathering makes my hips look huge ,I’ve had to take most of the gathers out but not on you 👍
Thank you xx
Hi Helen loving your content. You always look amazing
Thanks so much xx
@@Helenmaryjo There is nothing more refreshing than a lady who knows what she likes and what suits her. I definitely think that's something that women of 'a certain' demeanour understand. Those that begrudge are not there yet Helenmaryjo so please continue to do YOU and I will happily continue to FOLLOW. YOU GO GORGEOUS!!! xx
@@marycarter7623 thank you very much xx
Oh my goodness. I can’t believe someone commented that you chat too much in the beginning of your videos. Keep chatting, I love it.
Thank you xx
Like the green and navy spot dress the best . I think the red gingham one would be fine in the next size. Different makes do vary enormously. One make I have to go down in size a lot . Ie I'm normally a size 22 on the top , size 16 on the hips ( and it's not my bust ! ) in that make I take a size 18 ! K
I know, I don't know why they can't be consistent. xx
Great haul 👍 Love Roman, I have a few of their dresses.😊
Thank you xx
New subscriber to your channel absolutely loved the content. Such a nice lady. Thank you, look forward to seeing many more of your vlogs.
Thank you very much xx
Thank you for this video. I will never buy anything from Roman Originals as I recently ordered a dress which was no good for me.
The return process was a complete nightmare. I waited almost a month for my refund without success.
When I tried to ring them to ask where my money was, I had to wait in a phone queue for an hour before I was able to speak to someone.
They also keep a large fee for the return. I eventually received a half hearted apology for the delay. Definitely not a company to use.
Oh dear that doesn't sound good. Luckily I can take them to a store. x
Had similar experience, nothing wrong with the clothes but their return/ refund process is an absolute nightmare . Had to resort to taking them to small claims court when suddenly my refund appeared.
@@lynnehamilton6579 Oh my goodness. I hope I don't have the same trouble. That's a bad reputation to have. I will let you all know if I have a problem xx
Hi Helen your hair looks lovely you definitely suit the lighter colour dresses x
Thank you very much xx
Your new hair is lovely and youthful.
Thank you very much x
i love the chat too. I’ve bought Roman clothes lots of times and the sizing seemed ok I’m a typical size 16 and always found them a good fit, but, not bought any for about 3 years now, so maybe they are not so great now🤔 I did like that first dress on you it looked very nice, also that red one really did suit you not too join on the patterned green the top didn’t look quite right, not sure why don’t think it was anything to do with you, just the way it was made up in my opinion and the black one☹️ I think it was over powering you, and looked dowdy and you Helen, are very glamorous not dowdy. Hope you don’t mind my comments, that story about the jump suit I can definitely relate to, ha ha. x
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment xx
Love the dress your wearing
It is M and S from last year, thank you xx
Hi Helen, just found your channel and have been enjoying all your videos. In one of them, you mentioned leg chafing during the summer months. I have found that applying deodorant to the inner thighs does the trick for me.
Thank you - I think it depends how badly they rub...... but sounds like a good tip xx
Really enjoying your channel. Xx
Thank you very much xx
I like your chats and your accent. LOL I thought the long waist on #3 dress elongated you.
Thank you xx
The black/white dress is just my style so am off to see if it's still available. The gingham dress is nice but I get what you mean about the fit. The black dress is More flattering than you think. I love the first green dress on you but the second green one not so much.
Thank you for taking the time to comment xx
Hi, new subscriber here. Love your channel
Thank you very much xx
Hi Helen your hair is lovely makes you look ten years younger have a grate week
Thank you very much xx
Loving the hair. Takes 10 years off.
Thank you very much xx
I actually loved the second green dress on you but I understand about how easily it could be marked.
Yes, it would be a nightmare and would bother me all the time if it did get a grease mark on it. xx
Hi Helen - love your vlog. Really liked the first dress on you. What you’re wearing on the intro, is that a blouse or dress? Love the pattern. Looking forward to your next vlog
Thank you, it'. dress from M and S from last year xx
I like the dress you have on navy white floral. Sadly you don't say where it's from. I'm one of your new subscribers. Have you checked out Tescos F,Fred. They have had some lovely items at good prices. Maybe do a best Supermarket clothes haul.
Hi Carol, is is the Roman Originals video? In that case it's last year from M and S. Good idea. Thanks for watching xx
Great outfit
Thank you xx
Can I ask where you got the top you are wearing at the beginning and end of this video? I love it !!
Thank you ! Love your content 😍😍
It's actually a dress from M and S last summer and thank you for the compliment xx
The dress you were wearing at the start is lovely, you perhaps showed it before I started watching. K
No, this dress was from M and S last year xx
Hair looks good the dress you are wearing looks lovely not that fussed with Roman I find they do not always fit that good 👍
Thank you. Yes, me too xx
I'm growing my hair in from a pixie. Miss my pixie cut. I'm from Ohio in America. You don't talk to much at all. We're all chatting here. I'm 63 and we have a lot in common.
That's nice xx
Enjoyed the video only have just found you love the new haircut could you please do Amazon haul on dresses and skirts thanks x
I will look into that xx
Thank you x
Hello Helen new sub here been enjoying your videos 🌸🤗
Thank you very much xx
Loved them all except the first one. Thought that one was a bit Granny isk!! Lol.
Xxx
Hi Ellie, But I am a Granny! hahahaha xx
I’m an 18 and can’t fit in an 18 in Roman clothes. Their sizes are way off
Silly isn’t it - no one wants to buy a bigger size xx
Second time watching ,I agree no point in doing a video of you don't chat , that's how we get to know you, I liked the first dress and the green dress on you,😊
Thank you - that's what I thought. It was only one person to be fair, but it does make you wonder. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos xx
I enjoy yr chats
Thank you xx
Morning Helen love the dresses. Really liked the first one. I think it would be nice with a wee black belt. Keep your chat - it’s so nice. Also it’s great to hear a British voice - lots of utubers doing what you are doing all seem to be American. What was your profession Helen as you are so comfortable in front of the camera. Keep up your interesting blogs and thank you. Ps your hair is ver nice.
Hi, thank you very much. I've never worked in front of or behind a camera. I worked at Heathrow airport for many years in the Legal department..... But I'll take that as a big compliment. Thank you xx
I thought the black dress looked good on you 😊
Thank you xx
HIi HelenMaryJo new subscriber here. love your channel if I was to describe the content I would say that you model clothing /make-up for the classy smart lady - love Roman /M&S /John Lewis these stores were my "Godsave" back in the days when we were required to wear suits /trouser suits/tailored dresses & Jackets etc the list is endless I think now that the office attire have chaned these stores have relaxed their images & have moved into a casual market- Sorry long way of saving I love yr ch.
Hi Lorraine, thank you very much, that's a lovely comment xx
Carrying on chatting!
Absolutely agree, love the chat .
Thank you. I will! xx
Love the chat
Thank you very much xx
Hello. I'm new to your channel, there are so many like yours popping up. 1st dress was lovely, the green 1 looked great on you, but I know what you mean, if something is spilt on it it's ruined.
Thank you Alma xx
Oh yeah I like the chat too, makes it as friends chatting to one another.
What site do you use for discounts?
I use Pouch as an extension on my browser. I cover some of this on my Money Saving video. But also when you sign up the company will often email offers. Thanks for watching xx
