Hi Erin I'm from Philippines I'm 51 I do enjoy watching your channel since I discovered it few months ago the only problem in my country is the weather ☁️... it's too hot here so I'm having a hard time wearing some long sleeves and blazers...so I choose carefully what to wear that's comfortable and fashionable at the same time 👍😊😇🙏 thanks to your channel
Erin, since I discovered you last year, I have overhauled my closet. I found 4 pair of Moussy jeans and 3 pair of Moussy shorts that I wear almost everyday from Ebay! I am 41 but I feel like I look better than I've looked my whole life!
So important that you reminding us that we have to really like the pieces that were choosing! I've learned after many years that even if something fits well and everyone says it looks good on me if I keep putting it on and off at the store or take it home and keep fussing with it it means I'm never going to wear it.!!
It is no wonder I could never find anything to wear. I never bought the basics. I wish I learned this years ago. I finally went shopping with a goal in mind. I brought your checklist to help too....Thank you so much Busbee!!!
So I lost our home in the Marshall Fires and am starting over. Really needed to hear this as a reminder where to start in replacing clothing. Taking this as an opportunity to rebuild myself as we rebuild our home:)
Oh, Christina...I am SO sorry to hear that you lost your home...It truly sounds like you are looking at the bright side of things though, which is so important! I'm so glad you found this video helpful in the "rebuilding" process. Sending light and love your way through this tough time. Thank you for watching! xo
Yes! You can get by with only two pairs of jeans. I'm doing that right now since I'm between sizes. I have a black flair jean and a straight leg in stonewash. It simplifies my life a bit
I'm on the larger size so always feel frumpy. Definitely going to check my wardrobe for basics and wear them more. From the UK so not heard of most of your brands but can find them locally Im sure.
You are so right about chosing our own basic hues. I used to love black and wear a lot of it, but I eventually realized it washes me out - I look really sick if I wear black anywhere near my face. So I still get black bottoms, but when it comes to tops I switched to navy, and it was a game changer (and I found out I look great in navy, a color I had avoided before!).
All this time I thought I was an autumn but after getting my color analysis 2 weeks ago it turns out I’m a winter. Bye bye to beige and brown and hello to more black and saturated colors.
You totally changed my wardrobe game for the better! Take my baths at night, have the basic wardrobe items, basic jewelry for work. It is soooo easy to get ready every morning now! 🙏🦋👏
Love that SO much, Kelly! Thank you for sharing your story with me. YOU are the reason I'm here...I appreciate you more than you can know! Thanks for watching. xo
Thank you Erin! You are a huge inspiration to me! I’m 50 & have been at a loss until finding you-💗🌷💗 I’ve been wearing TJMAXX OUT!😉 I don’t have a huge clothing budget but with your guidance I can find similar items that I feel fashionable & beautiful in. Blessings-
Thank you SO much for sharing and supporting me, Amy! My hope is always that my tips can act as a guide for you to use when shopping at any budget, and it is so great to hear that is what you are able to do! Thank you for your comment. xo
I literally said “I have NOTHING” to wear when I went in my closet today. 😂 I get caught up in the trends when the seasons change. Time to focus on basics. Thanks!
Erin and team...you are my peeps!!!! Not too many people in my life understand my love for fashion. My mother instilled this in me. When I was in kindergarten I needed a smock for painting. all the other kids had their dad's old shirts. My mother took me to a tailor and had made for me a tartan plaid smock with a Peter Pan collar. It's been a life long love and passion of mine. My beautiful Mom would always say "feathers make the bird." I enjoy this channel so very much. Thank you all for your wonderful content and hard work!
Thank you SO much for your kind words, Kasey! Truly means so much to me...I absolutely LOVE that story, thank you for sharing. How special of a memory that is! I'm so glad you are a part of this amazing community. xo
I’ve got a few years until my 40’s but I love your content and dressing in a more classic, elevated style. I’ll go into my 40’s sophisticated and stylish.
Never thought of the closet basics. Totally makes sense. I love clothes shopping and I just realized I’m wasting too much money. Before digging to another shopping spree for my italy trip next year in September for a 2 weeks vacation maybe you can help me figure out how to minimalist packing so I can just enjoy my trip and not worry about how many outfits I need to bring and struggle carrying my suitcase from airport to train to boat transfers. Now I need to take a second look at my closet and reevaluate my clothes. Thanks a bunch!
I changed my wardrobe Erin thankyou for helping me and giving me great ideas.I will continue watching your shows they teach me a lot about jeans, shoes, sandals, blazers, jackets, leather jackets and so much more.
Erin, your channel is such a gem! I live in a neighboring Colorado county (love Telluride!) and love that you’re a local sharing how fashion can be approachable for us mountain ladies! ❤️
OMG!!! This is perfect timing! I'm currently changing my closest over from winter to spring/summer! I watched your last closet organization video. Any chance you could do another closet clear out/organization video? Love your channel~!!!!! Thank you!
Same here.. It's still so cold here in Finland but next week it should change..hopefully.. Our summers are usually not very hot and they are short, so the spring/autumn clothes are most essential for me.. Thanks for all these great videos- I appreciate them very much 😊 Charlotte 👋
Omg this video was for me today. I have been spending weeks trying on everything from my wardrobe as I never know what to wear and decided to let things go! I have a lot clothes from my teens and some before pregnancy that I will never get to that size again. But this week I decided to let it go. I realised in the past I invested in cheap essentials and also didn’t buy new ones thinking about my new shape and life style. Now the job is to find out what do I like and feel confident on it as you said is personal as spending time on Pinterest don’t bring me the same vibe as people has different shapes and personalities. Thanks for your tips and I hope to be able to have a stress free morning when deciding what to wear.
I always circle back to your channel when I need inspo, I will be 42 next mo. I love a mix of lux & functional with a splash of trendy. I just love your style.
Great vid, Erin. Would love to see a version of this for autumn (fall) for those of us in the southern hemisphere. My climate is subtropical Australia, so maybe equivalent to US early fall.
We will try and do something like that closer to our fall. In the meantime, here's two great videos on fall styles from this past year! ua-cam.com/video/uxoY-1xlrQU/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/-cdXW4Zko40/v-deo.html Thanks for watching! xo
Thank you so much for this video. I have been following you for a couple years now and am familiar with the basics checklist. Nevertheless, this was so helpful. I’ve been trying to figure out how to refresh my wardrobe without purchasing a ton of ridiculously trendy pieces. I love how your team does the leg work. It’s a lifesaver for women like myself who do not have time to shop!
I already have those brown Seychelles crossover sandals, and I am SO PROUD of myself for snagging a pair before you highlighted it. Maybe I’m learning something! 😆😅😎
I've been with this channel since 3 years and you've been a great help with my minimalist style. I don't have to say this phrase again... "I don't have anything to wear!" lol thank you so much!
That is SO great, Clare! Thank you so much for sharing your success with me. I'm glad my tips have helped you in your style journey. Thanks for watching. xo
This is the best video ever! I feel you could repeat it with totally different pieces 10 times and we would just keep learning and growing! Thank you so much! This is my holy grail video!
Love the concepts in your videos. Even though I am in New Zealand and it's autumn here, our climate is not that cold. Although the brands you mention are rather expensive to me, especially with exchange rate and delivery costs.
I'm so glad you're enjoying my videos! Using these concepts as a guide for wherever you are shopping (any budget) is a great way to go! Thanks for watching. xo
I love the caveat of 'you also need to love it.' I've spent the last few years collecting basics so I always have the thing to wear 'under' or 'with', and it's possible to find basics that also reflect my personal style. But I do have to say, when I have found a piece that I totally love and is totally 'me,' there is a magic at work such that it works with much of my closet and find ways to wear it all the time, even if it is 'beyond basic.'
Erin you are so clever and so sweet. Thanku for all your hard work to help us. You are a really good person. I love how you do your videos. Showing photo's of you modelling the outfits as it help to see it all put together so i can copy it to my style.
I watching this as I prepare to bring my son to college freshman registration event...on a 90 degree day, when I am dealing with a rapid 20 pound weight gain that I am not used to and I'm just getting over a broken foot so am very limited with which shoes i can wear.😣 I shall turn to my basics and find something I feel comfortable in! 🥳
GGDB sneakers are awesome. Last weekend I crazily volunteered to take on a 10 hour long Bridal & Prom Consignment pop-up by myself and my feet didn't suffer at all, my hair style was a totally different situation though, lol. Also, my favourite white jeans are my Levi's 501 but it took a bit of trial and error to get it right. I also size up an inch for white jeans.
Hi Erin!! I love your videos sooo much! Some times I will rewatch old videos because I’ve watched them all! Ideas for future videos- if you’re stuck for ideas, how about re-doing some previous videos as an updated version? Eg how to layer jewellery, how to match jewellery to outfits, tips and hints, how to choose clothing for our body type etc. Just another way to indulge us in more videos from the lovely YOU!😊🙏🏻❤️
I think my tips can apply to women of almost any age. I'm so glad you're enjoying my videos, Lorrie, and I'm so glad you are here in this amazing community! Thanks for your support. xo
I just found your channel. I’m 55 and thought I was a solid dresser. You are next level and able to articulate what it is that makes a woman truly look put together. Thank you! I’m currently bingeing you 💖🛍👡!!!
Hi Erin, thanks so much for all of your fashion insight!! So greatly appreciated it.. I love love those jeans you are wearing-mousy what style are those they are GORG!! You rock them girl!!!💖
I love your Channel, I now want to go through my closet and have a good sorting out. One thing I do know that is important and can make a big difference in how we look is a good fitting bra. 😮
Thanks so much, Margaret! It's a big job to go through and edit your closet...but it is worth it! If you subscribe to our newsletter here: busbee.attn.tv/p/sAF/landing-page you will receive helpful tips and resources for your wardrobe basics as well. And you are spot on - a good fitting bra is a MUST! xo
Thank you for this! I am revamping my spring/Summer wardrobe because of pandemic weight gain. Are there brands that you notice have a good variety of sizes? I’m a size 14, which is not quite plus size but too large for most “large”size designer clothing. Trying to buy a dress for a special event has left me really disappointed at the sizing limitations of many brands sold at Nordstrom and Amazon.
Mango is a brand that seems to have a good variety of sizes. Here's the link: rstyle.me/+egaKtNnUeyT8h9LoCiOqGg I'd go to the clothing tab that you're searching for and filter to size 14 for best results! Thank you so much for watching...I'm glad you enjoyed this video! xo
SPANX for white jeans!!! I got their Flare Jeans recently and they are incredible and not even a little see-though! Also very-size inclusive. They do run a bit small, though…I sized up one size and they fit me perfectly and are gorgeous and comfortable. 😄
@@BusbeeStyle Anytime - we women need to help each other out! 😉 And thanks so much for all that you do! I found your site / videos last year at a time that I started really struggling with my self-image due to health issues (including weight gain / surgery scars / medical devices), and your style tips have helped me so much to feel beautiful again!
Thank you Erin. Basics simplified!! So clear, stylish, and exciting. You are the best. Thanks for revisiting this topic. You are beautiful in e every way. 💎🦋
Hi Erin, great video! I am one of those woman who stare at my clothes in my closet and can’t figure out to wear! I’m currently doing an overhaul of my clothes - all seasons! Your video is very helpful. Thanks again! 😁
the idea is good but where I live it is cold does not fit with me however I am first time on your channel I ll have a look around. Subscribed and thumbs up for your great job.
I bought the Misa blouse you’re wearing after seeing it in another video and actually wore it today at a conference (now it’s late and I’m wearing my pajamas 😂). So beautiful, and thanks again for another great, inspiring video!
Just binge watched a u.k TV drama and the main character (who was playing a lawyer) was wearing "your" beautiful pleated trench. It looked fantastic and I was just thinking someone in the wardrobe department watches Busbee style..I loved it so different & classy
I love the Garanimals comment!!🤣🤣 You are sooooo right about jewelry pieces. I have a jewelry box full of beautiful pieces I've collected over many years, but I always go back to my favorite chunky gold bracelet and ring. Thanks for a great video 💖💖
I may have mentioned this before but that blouse looks amazing on you ~ your eye are so beautiful. Great Video and yes even though I’ve watched your basics video before ~ I needed a review. NOTE: Nordstrom Rack in San Jose has that belt.
Fall styles will be coming soon! It's crazy that it's already that time again.... In the meantime, here's our updated fall/winter capsule wardrobe that you might find helpful! busbeestyle.com/wardrobe-basics-part-busbeestyle-tv/ xo
Erin, I am a small town women and I drool over your access to interesting and beautiful pieces through retailers. I have a couple of low end shops to choose from where I live, and I want so much more than that. It makes me think that it is time for you to give us some new lessons on choosing and buying online with success.
It can truly be a tough task to find the right clothes online...Will continue to give all of the tips I can share with you, Janice! Thanks for watching. xo
I got a great chuckle from your Texas restaurant comment! I wear MORE winter clothing in summer than in winter because of the crazy AC culture down here…..
I recently discovered your videos and shared than with my daughter. I' m a young 71 retiree and she is a young 51 marketing executive - we both enjoy all your suggestions, and discovered that we have been doing the 80/20 without even knowing it! All signed up for your newsletter. Thank you!
I hear you on the blazer. One of the few items left on the checklist that I haven’t found. I am petite and a firm 132 pound hourglass figure. I need the blazer to gather on the back. Do you have a recommendation?
I am so excited I found you and your channel!! Today I purchased the white blazer with gold buttons from Express. I cannot wait to receive my Balmain look for less blazer. Thank you so much!! You make stylish shopping on line easy . :)
If you haven't subscribed to our newsletter, here is the link to sign up: mailing.busbeestyle.com/Newsletter_Landing_Page Here you'll receive checklists to get you organized on building your capsule wardrobe! Thanks for watching! xo
This made me think of looking through my closet, donate most Of them and revamp,😂 . Too much clothes but it’s like I have nothing to wear kind of feel. This I think will fulfill my minimalist wardrobe 👏🏼👍🏼
Great video Erin. I pretty much all about the basics...I invest and never regret. I rarely buy just a trend piece. Btw where did you get your brown belt it is really awsome...love it.
Do you have a recommendation in a similar fabric and color scheme as the MISA nora button front blouse you’re wearing? I can’t find one anywhere, and I love it SO much!
First of all, I love your chanel; it has helped me so much. I am one of those people who don't get how to do all this but I can follow directions. Question, for the longest time, I found that jeans, a blouse and jacket were my go to for work and the easiest for me. I now have a job that doesn't allow blue jeans, jeans are okay but that can't be blue. I found blue jeans to be so versatile; is there something else that is similar?
Interesting that they allow denim - but not blue... I'd go for black jeans! They're versatile and will go with just about anything you could pair with your blue jeans. Here's a great pair to try out: rstyle.me/+PLcJjRzxbndsg-9VM09vQw
You are so fabulous! You are real, funny, beautiful, and you speak to all women!!! I love you. I love this room! Your new house/setting is just beautiful. You look great by the way... I'm going to get started on my capsule. I have been living in sweats and big tee shirts and it's time to awaken!!!! Thank you!
You and I have very different styles yet I always get something out of your videos that I can implement. I'm a bit older than you and I love wearing black with different textures mixed with color here and there - no white for me! I'm pale so no white. Washes me out and I'm grubby so it will get dirty in five seconds. I love second hand clothes but since I moved to a smaller town, it's harder. Have you produced a video concentrating on online shopping only? I would find that very helpful. Thank you Erin. You're a huge help and you get to the point. Love it!
Thank you SO much for your support! Here's a video I did on online shopping tips: ua-cam.com/video/DkhHP504rJU/v-deo.html It can really be so tough to get right, I get it! Thank you for watching and leaving such a sweet comment! xo
Hi my lovely little angel stylist thanks for your lovely advice you have us so spoiled with your advice.every time I shop I think what would Erin be telling me.you have transformed my full wardrobe and my style and I’m very grateful for your input have a lovely week with your lovely family 💐❤️😘☘️
Great video today Erin!! Is it possible for you to do another video on exercise routines and in particular, the routine that you do daily?? Thank you 😊
LOVE wearing Monica Vinader Riva wrap & kite paired next to each other!!! Thx so much for showing us & answering my questions. Paired them w her skinny gold band on opposite hand. Gorg!!
Great idea! I typically fold mine up once, but often will also cut off the bottom if it's already a raw edged hem, and then I don't have to worry about them being too long when I find a style that I love! Lots of ways that you can roll or fold your jeans though! xo
Thank you I just stumbled on your channel and love it. I’m 5’81/2” and have a pear shape. Blazers just don’t cut it for me at all, and that cut hits me at the largest part of my waist. I tend to dress like a bag lady lol because I like the comfort and am a lazy fashionista that works out a lot. What do you suggest instead of a blazer?
Thanks for watching, Tricia! SO glad you are enjoying my videos. Here's my video on dressing for a Triangle (pear) Shape Body: ua-cam.com/video/ra0D8nmqvbk/v-deo.html Sometimes trying a jacket that is a bit longer might be all you need to do! Still though, search for body skimming rather than oversized garments. Hope this helps! xo
Dusters, long tunics, longer cardigans (like a Barefoot Dreams cardigan), kimono (like someone mentioned); silky or dressy utility jackets or utility shirts (worn open like a jacket); soft knit jacket that are a softer-dressy professional look (for those who do not like blazers). Before you totally give up on blazers, get a consultation from a more upscale department store or Nordstrom's. Usually we are choosing the wrong STYLE of blazers. I like the blazers with lapels instead of a mandarin collar blazer. I like single button blazer best...but I wear it unbuttoned. If I buy double-breasted blazers, I size up 1 or 2 sizes...but not to button them...instead, I like the drapey effect and wearing it open by sizing up. Some like shoulder pads in blazers; some like cropped; some like long-line blazers; some like crunching up the sleeves to the elbows...to give shaping and interest; some like printed blazers (which camoflauges problem areas); some try on men's blazers in thrift stores (to fit looser or slounchier). So that is why I mention to use department consultants who know shape...and can advise if blazers can flatter your body shape or not.

@@jentastic3236 i want my color analysis done but prolly already know I'm a autumn too
All this time I thought I was an autumn but after getting my color analysis 2 weeks ago it turns out I’m a winter. Bye bye to beige and brown and hello to more black and saturated colors.
I think you have the classiest most feminine style ever..yet pra tical..I did not know how to dress until u explained...so...much

This is the best video ever! I feel you could repeat it with totally different pieces 10 times and we would just keep learning and growing! Thank you so much! This is my holy grail video!
I really could... basics are so subjective and personal, but so important to get right!
This is awesome! Thank you! Now I just need to find this advice for men (my son). Anyone know of someone doing videos of this quality for men?
Love the concepts in your videos. Even though I am in New Zealand and it's autumn here, our climate is not that cold. Although the brands you mention are rather expensive to me, especially with exchange rate and delivery costs.
I'm so glad you're enjoying my videos! Using these concepts as a guide for wherever you are shopping (any budget) is a great way to go! Thanks for watching. xo
I love the caveat of 'you also need to love it.' I've spent the last few years collecting basics so I always have the thing to wear 'under' or 'with', and it's possible to find basics that also reflect my personal style. But I do have to say, when I have found a piece that I totally love and is totally 'me,' there is a magic at work such that it works with much of my closet and find ways to wear it all the time, even if it is 'beyond basic.'
Absolutely true! We wear the pieces that speak to us and bring us joy! Thanks for watching. xo
Beautiful Erin, This was such a good reminder and we sometimes forget the staples to build a wardrobe that will work for us. Have a great week! xo
Back to the basics...Really SO important for our wardrobes! Thanks for watching, Christine!
I love the blouse you are wearing so much! It’s sold out. Thank you for this video. I definitely need basics.
Erin you are so clever and so sweet.
Thanku for all your hard work to help us.
You are a really good person.
I love how you do your videos.
Showing photo's of you modelling the outfits as it help to see it all put together so i can copy it to my style.
You are so welcome! Glad this one was helpful for you!! xo
I watching this as I prepare to bring my son to college freshman registration event...on a 90 degree day, when I am dealing with a rapid 20 pound weight gain that I am not used to and I'm just getting over a broken foot so am very limited with which shoes i can wear.😣
I shall turn to my basics and find something I feel comfortable in! 🥳
So glad you found this helpful! xo
GGDB sneakers are awesome. Last weekend I crazily volunteered to take on a 10 hour long Bridal & Prom Consignment pop-up by myself and my feet didn't suffer at all, my hair style was a totally different situation though, lol.
Also, my favourite white jeans are my Levi's 501 but it took a bit of trial and error to get it right. I also size up an inch for white jeans.
Love it! Thanks so much for sharing a few of your favorites...and thank you for watching! xo
Don't skimp on the basics! Thank you Erin. You helped me so much! Love you.
I'm so glad you enjoyed this one, Deb! Thanks for watching! xo
Hi Erin!! I love your videos sooo much! Some times I will rewatch old videos because I’ve watched them all!
Ideas for future videos- if you’re stuck for ideas, how about re-doing some previous videos as an updated version? Eg how to layer jewellery, how to match jewellery to outfits, tips and hints, how to choose clothing for our body type etc. Just another way to indulge us in more videos from the lovely YOU!😊🙏🏻❤️
Great idea, Anna! Thanks so much!!
I'm older, so I'm sure much of this doesn't apply to me, but I will share this with everyone I know. Your information is priceless!
I think my tips can apply to women of almost any age. I'm so glad you're enjoying my videos, Lorrie, and I'm so glad you are here in this amazing community! Thanks for your support. xo
I just found your channel. I’m 55 and thought I was a solid dresser. You are next level and able to articulate what it is that makes a woman truly look put together. Thank you! I’m currently bingeing you 💖🛍👡!!!
Welcome, Renee! SO glad you are here in this amazing community, and so glad that you're finding my videos helpful! Thanks for watching! xo
I have a few good pieces but I think I still need more basics..Love your videos!❤⚘
Great timeless ideas. I love when you show all the examples at the end on one page.
Thanks so much! So glad you enjoyed this, Elizabeth! xo
Hi Erin, thanks so much for all of your fashion insight!! So greatly appreciated it.. I love love those jeans you are wearing-mousy what style are those they are GORG!! You rock them girl!!!💖
Love your set. I am sure all of us would love to have a dressing room. Wishful thinking.
Thank you so much, Linn! It's truly a dream come true...Thank you for watching! xo
Loved this video!! Heading out to shop now!! I’m so happy I found your channel! ❤️
I love your Channel, I now want to go through my closet and have a good sorting out. One thing I do know that is important and can make a big difference in how we look is a good fitting bra. 😮
Thanks so much, Margaret! It's a big job to go through and edit your closet...but it is worth it! If you subscribe to our newsletter here: busbee.attn.tv/p/sAF/landing-page you will receive helpful tips and resources for your wardrobe basics as well. And you are spot on - a good fitting bra is a MUST! xo
thank you. where is your blue blouse from ?
Thank you for this! I am revamping my spring/Summer wardrobe because of pandemic weight gain. Are there brands that you notice have a good variety of sizes? I’m a size 14, which is not quite plus size but too large for most “large”size designer clothing. Trying to buy a dress for a special event has left me really disappointed at the sizing limitations of many brands sold at Nordstrom and Amazon.
Mango is a brand that seems to have a good variety of sizes. Here's the link: rstyle.me/+egaKtNnUeyT8h9LoCiOqGg I'd go to the clothing tab that you're searching for and filter to size 14 for best results! Thank you so much for watching...I'm glad you enjoyed this video! xo
SPANX for white jeans!!! I got their Flare Jeans recently and they are incredible and not even a little see-though! Also very-size inclusive. They do run a bit small, though…I sized up one size and they fit me perfectly and are gorgeous and comfortable. 😄
They do have some great jeans and pants! It's so tough to find the right pair of white jeans...thanks for sharing your favorite! xo
@@BusbeeStyle Anytime - we women need to help each other out! 😉 And thanks so much for all that you do! I found your site / videos last year at a time that I started really struggling with my self-image due to health issues (including weight gain / surgery scars / medical devices), and your style tips have helped me so much to feel beautiful again!
Thank you Erin. Basics simplified!! So clear, stylish, and exciting. You are the best. Thanks for revisiting this topic. You are beautiful in e every way. 💎🦋
You are so welcome! I'm so glad you found this one helpful, Judy! Thanks for watching. xo
Hi Erin, great video! I am one of those woman who stare at my clothes in my closet and can’t figure out to wear! I’m currently doing an overhaul of my clothes - all seasons! Your video is very helpful. Thanks again! 😁
SO glad this was helpful, Darshan! xo
Thanks for Super helpful advice, your style is beautiful..... Not doing the Golden Goose sneakers tho
the idea is good but where I live it is cold does not fit with me however I am first time on your channel I ll have a look around. Subscribed and thumbs up for your great job.
Welcome, Carmen! We have a ton of winter content on the channel. Hope you will enjoy it and find it helpful! xo
I bought the Misa blouse you’re wearing after seeing it in another video and actually wore it today at a conference (now it’s late and I’m wearing my pajamas 😂). So beautiful, and thanks again for another great, inspiring video!
It is one of my favorite tops...I'm so glad you enjoyed this video! Thanks for watching, Joanna! xo
Just binge watched a u.k TV drama and the main character (who was playing a lawyer) was wearing "your" beautiful pleated trench. It looked fantastic and I was just thinking someone in the wardrobe department watches Busbee style..I loved it so different & classy
Love it! That's one of my favorite things in my closet...Thanks for watching! xo
Excellent video! You look amazing, hair A+. Also love your new space. Thanks for the great ideas, basic upgrade on the way for me.
Thank you so much for your support and thanks for watching! SO glad you enjoyed this one. xo
I love the Garanimals comment!!🤣🤣 You are sooooo right about jewelry pieces. I have a jewelry box full of beautiful pieces I've collected over many years, but I always go back to my favorite chunky gold bracelet and ring. Thanks for a great video 💖💖
Very useful video thank you ❤
I'm not even 10 minutes in, and I love this video. Great tips. Back to watching....
Thanks so much for watching, April! SO glad you found this one helpful! xo
I may have mentioned this before but that blouse looks amazing on you ~ your eye are so beautiful. Great Video and yes even though I’ve watched your basics video before ~ I needed a review. NOTE: Nordstrom Rack in San Jose has that belt.
Thank you SO much! Glad you enjoyed this one, and thanks for sharing! xo
My favorite jeans are NYDJ- I'm petite but I have a mummy tummy. NYDJ holds me in and moves with me. Every cut is awesome.
Yup. I agree with 2 pairs of jean! Blue & washed grayish- black (mother & DHL), white jean from madewell.
Love it! Thanks for watching, Alice! xo
...Your good wave ..hair style is so elegant.!!!
Loved this video Erin, always great to have those essential basics in your wardrobe. As usual love all your clothes 🤗
Yay! Thank you so much...SO glad you enjoyed this one! xo

Thank you Erin, such good advice. I love this channel!
Thank you SO much for your kind words of support! Truly appreciate it. xo
Can you do one of these for fall. I am starting my list now to get ahead of it for fall/winter ty
Fall styles will be coming soon! It's crazy that it's already that time again.... In the meantime, here's our updated fall/winter capsule wardrobe that you might find helpful! busbeestyle.com/wardrobe-basics-part-busbeestyle-tv/ xo
Erin, I am a small town women and I drool over your access to interesting and beautiful pieces through retailers. I have a couple of low end shops to choose from where I live, and I want so much more than that. It makes me think that it is time for you to give us some new lessons on choosing and buying online with success.
It can truly be a tough task to find the right clothes online...Will continue to give all of the tips I can share with you, Janice! Thanks for watching. xo
Really great instruction- love it 💕☘️
I got a great chuckle from your Texas restaurant comment! I wear MORE winter clothing in summer than in winter because of the crazy AC culture down here…..
What is up with that?! At least I'm not alone there.....
Yes! I always keep a cardigan in my SUV for our freezing 🥶 restaurants😂
What an excellent, informative video! Way to go Team Busbee!
SO glad you enjoyed this one. Thanks for watching! xo
I recently discovered your videos and shared than with my daughter. I' m a young 71 retiree and she is a young 51 marketing executive - we both enjoy all your suggestions, and discovered that we have been doing the 80/20 without even knowing it! All signed up for your newsletter. Thank you!
Love that, Susan! I'm so glad that you and your daughter are enjoying my videos! xo
i just like you and your videos so much. So happy I found you. xo
You are so right regarding the pleated shirt highlighting the tummy. I took some pictures and refused to share them. lol.
I hear you on the blazer. One of the few items left on the checklist that I haven’t found. I am petite and a firm 132 pound hourglass figure. I need the blazer to gather on the back. Do you have a recommendation?
This video is everything! I love it! Amazing and excellent advice. Thank you much😍🤩❤❤❤❤❤
I'm SO glad you enjoyed this one, Lene! Thanks for your sweet comment. xo
I am so excited I found you and your channel!! Today I purchased the white blazer with gold buttons from Express. I cannot wait to receive my Balmain look for less blazer. Thank you so much!! You make stylish shopping on line easy . :)
Yay! SO glad you are here, Terry! I hope you LOVE your new blazer. Thanks so much for being a part of this amazing community! xo
I love this kind of video! It helps so much to see the basics for each season-thank you!!!!

Erin, this is a much needed video..I live in Miami so these recommendations are my year round ones...no seasons here..lol..Great breakdown..
I'm so glad you enjoyed this one! Thanks for watching. xo
Girl, you''re so cute, you can pull off most anything! Love these type videos, makes me want and need to go shopping!!
Thanks for this video ⭐️ I love your hair! I’m inspired to get curtain bangs as well.
Thank you so much...You should give it a try! Thanks for watching. xo
This made me think of looking through my closet, donate most
Of them and revamp,😂 . Too much clothes but it’s like I have nothing to wear kind of feel. This I think will fulfill my minimalist wardrobe 👏🏼👍🏼
Great video Erin. I pretty much all about the basics...I invest and never regret. I rarely buy just a trend piece. Btw where did you get your brown belt it is really awsome...love it.
Do you have a recommendation in a similar fabric and color scheme as the MISA nora button front blouse you’re wearing? I can’t find one anywhere, and I love it SO much!
Here's a link to this top: go.magik.ly/ml/1gnuo/ Only a few sizes left... xo
First of all, I love your chanel; it has helped me so much. I am one of those people who don't get how to do all this but I can follow directions. Question, for the longest time, I found that jeans, a blouse and jacket were my go to for work and the easiest for me. I now have a job that doesn't allow blue jeans, jeans are okay but that can't be blue. I found blue jeans to be so versatile; is there something else that is similar?
Interesting that they allow denim - but not blue... I'd go for black jeans! They're versatile and will go with just about anything you could pair with your blue jeans. Here's a great pair to try out: rstyle.me/+PLcJjRzxbndsg-9VM09vQw
You are so fabulous! You are real, funny, beautiful, and you speak to all women!!! I love you. I love this room! Your new house/setting is just beautiful. You look great by the way... I'm going to get started on my capsule. I have been living in sweats and big tee shirts and it's time to awaken!!!! Thank you!
Thank you so much, Denise! You're so sweet...truly means so much to me. I'm so glad to have women like you in my corner. Thanks for watching! xo
You and I have very different styles yet I always get something out of your videos that I can implement. I'm a bit older than you and I love wearing black with different textures mixed with color here and there - no white for me! I'm pale so no white. Washes me out and I'm grubby so it will get dirty in five seconds. I love second hand clothes but since I moved to a smaller town, it's harder. Have you produced a video concentrating on online shopping only? I would find that very helpful. Thank you Erin. You're a huge help and you get to the point. Love it!
Thank you SO much for your support! Here's a video I did on online shopping tips: ua-cam.com/video/DkhHP504rJU/v-deo.html It can really be so tough to get right, I get it! Thank you for watching and leaving such a sweet comment! xo
Such a great video!! Thank you Erin and team!!
SO glad you enjoyed this one! xo
Hi my lovely little angel stylist thanks for your lovely advice you have us so spoiled with your advice.every time I shop I think what would Erin be telling me.you have transformed my full wardrobe and my style and I’m very grateful for your input have a lovely week with your lovely family 💐❤️😘☘️
Love being your stylist, Janice! SO glad you found this one helpful! xo
Great video today Erin!! Is it possible for you to do another video on exercise routines and in particular, the routine that you do daily?? Thank you 😊
Great idea! Thanks for watching. xo
LOVE wearing Monica Vinader Riva wrap & kite paired next to each other!!! Thx so much for showing us & answering my questions. Paired them w her skinny gold band on opposite hand. Gorg!!
Thanks so much...I was clueless
The white blazer looks great on you!
Very informative...loved it
Do you have a current video on hems for jeans. To roll once or double roll
Great idea! I typically fold mine up once, but often will also cut off the bottom if it's already a raw edged hem, and then I don't have to worry about them being too long when I find a style that I love! Lots of ways that you can roll or fold your jeans though! xo
Thank you I just stumbled on your channel and love it. I’m 5’81/2” and have a pear shape. Blazers just don’t cut it for me at all, and that cut hits me at the largest part of my waist. I tend to dress like a bag lady lol because I like the comfort and am a lazy fashionista that works out a lot.
What do you suggest instead of a blazer?
Thanks for watching, Tricia! SO glad you are enjoying my videos. Here's my video on dressing for a Triangle (pear) Shape Body: ua-cam.com/video/ra0D8nmqvbk/v-deo.html
Sometimes trying a jacket that is a bit longer might be all you need to do! Still though, search for body skimming rather than oversized garments. Hope this helps! xo
A long fitting thin cardigan???
Try a cropped blazer!
Kimono’s
Dusters, long tunics, longer cardigans (like a Barefoot Dreams cardigan), kimono (like someone mentioned); silky or dressy utility jackets or utility shirts (worn open like a jacket); soft knit jacket that are a softer-dressy professional look (for those who do not like blazers).
Before you totally give up on blazers, get a consultation from a more upscale department store or Nordstrom's. Usually we are choosing the wrong STYLE of blazers.
I like the blazers with lapels instead of a mandarin collar blazer. I like single button blazer best...but I wear it unbuttoned. If I buy double-breasted blazers, I size up 1 or 2 sizes...but not to button them...instead, I like the drapey effect and wearing it open by sizing up. Some like shoulder pads in blazers; some like cropped; some like long-line blazers; some like crunching up the sleeves to the elbows...to give shaping and interest; some like printed blazers (which camoflauges problem areas); some try on men's blazers in thrift stores (to fit looser or slounchier). So that is why I mention to use department consultants who know shape...and can advise if blazers can flatter your body shape or not.
