Question of the day! What are the things in life you will ALWAYS invest in? (whether it's through your time, money, or energy.) Mine are good clothes, good friends, and good coffee :)
ooo totally with you on clean skin care products! trying to make the switch with my cleanser especially...would love to know your brand recommendations
Definitely yes to garment care video! I’ve been eagerly awaiting this, now that I’m choosing to invest more in quality (and fewer) pieces, I want to learn how to wash/dry/hang my clothing to make it last ❤
I’ve been a silent fan of your channel for a while now and I just wanted to say how grateful I am for your content. I found your channel during the shut down and it was so refreshing and soothing that I’d intentionally carve out a special time of day to just sit and watch (I binged all your videos and your Master Class). I’m so excited you’re leaning more into the fitness realm as that’s one of the things I always invest in, I love investing my time at the gym, and I especially have a weakness for spending on athleisure (that’s also gym functional), so I’m looking forward to your dip into new athletic brands! I love the more personal vibe of your videos and I’m always excited for more. Thank you for all your efforts!
wow Isabel! Thank you for all of your support. So thrilled that you love the videos and the class, and very excited to share more in the fitness realm!
I relate so much with your comment! I also invest in fitness so seeing Bethanny go into that world excites me! 🧡 Apparently she's been doing even better than me that I've been into fitness for more than 10 years 😂 I'm really bad at eating healthy but at least I move my muscles a lot :p
1. Education that bridges the giant gaps that school left. 2. Food 3. Clothes - now on the list thanks to you Bethany. Following you and Justine Leconte on UA-cam has opened my eyes to this world of quality clothing. I'm very grateful to you!
Dear Bethany, I've been watching your channel for a year now. I love your style and personality! Great story of finding your grandfather! Best wishes for continued success!
Thank you for always posting such high-quality videos, I feel like I leave each video learning something new. A video on how you take care of your clothes would be incredible as I'm very lost in this area. Thank you again!
Something I’ll always invest in is my relationship with Jesus through time at church, reading, and doing Bible studies. Also, my marriage. I love spending time with and cultivating my relationship with my husband! Third choice would probably be home decor, fresh flowers or clothes which is why I LOVE your channel!
I got teary-eyed when you talked about your great-grandfather! I love that you were able to uncover the mystery after years of not knowing and now you're able to feel that much more connected to your ancestors. Inspires me to start looking into my ancestry and see what I find 🙂. Love the new content by the way and would definitely enjoy a video on how to care for clothing!!
Dearly Bethany, We all come to you because we think you are genuine and care deeply about the information you are sharing !! You should never worry about your content because those of us investing time here with you already know who you are and adore you !! We thank you!! I love seeing your confidence sore and am so impressed with your gym journey !! Thank you for being you ! As for your question I will invest in anything that makes me feel amazing so that I can be amazing for others. If that makes sense ! Keep coming back to us. Thank you !!!❤ 5:10
Bethany, I gotta say my eye is immediately drawn to your belt! That’s so beautiful, love the western aesthetic and DAMN…I’d say you found THE PERFECT pair of jeans! I will always invest my time in my kids, because my time is my most valuable possession and my kids are the next generation! There’s no better investment ❤
I love how the high waist rigid Jean looks but as much as I try them and buy them, I realize I can’t sit in them with any level of comfort and I’m always popping open the buttons when driving etc 😅 so I think my life is telling me I need the stretch
Always invest in counseling, beautiful experiences (travel), food, time with family, education. PS- your vulnerability allows us to be more open too. Thanks for creating that space. ❤
I'm so glad for these more casual style videos. For a while I'd been feeling like the information and delivery were getting redundant but... I think so much more is being said now in this 'chat format'. Also... gorgeous house.
This is so motivating! I can so identify with this. This reminds me of how after COVID, we had to completely rebuild our business. Have the will and persistence to keep going and try out new, inventive approaches to accomplish our objectives!
Hey, I am also usually a more silent watcher, but I like the idea of these questions of the day! And I also like that your videos are something I watch intentionally. The things I invest in are really good tea, lots of books and time for my best friends:)
Bethany, congratulations on your journey to self discovery and identity! ❤ You are the only influencer I trust with personal style. I love your artistry, commitment to your work, and vulnerability. I have to say, your humility is so refreshing. That’s why I love your content. You put time and effort in educating others about personal style, rather than making the video a huge “flex” lol! Keep up the great work! ✨ I will always invest in 1) God and my faith 2) Relationships. Particularly with my husband and baby girl (I’m trying to keep phone use to a minimum, so they have my undivided attention). 3) Quality clothing
I completely agree with your list of three. Additionally, I will always invest in skincare/makeup products. Even though I'm pretty minimal when it comes to both, I'm concerned about the quality of what goes directly on my skin.
I invest is things that make me vibrant...health, adventure, friendships, or a great jacket. Yes to showing us how to care for both clothes and jewelry. Hesitant to invest until I have a plan to care for heirloom items long term.
I'm a fairly new subscriber. Personally, I love this format! The breakdown feels natural, too! In terms of answering your question.... Whether financial or time related, my husband and I always try to invest in the highest quality of life possible, which truly encompasses every aspect. We are debt free, responsible, avid savers. If we lost everything tomorrow, we'd still find ways to invest time in health & wellness, God & friendships. If we somehow lost these things, the quality of our lives would drastically diminish. Thanks for creating such good content!
I really enjoyed watching this video! To answer your question, I will always invest in beautiful flowers for my house (a very big passion for me, it brings me so much joy), my sleep (amount of time and the bed itself) and last is good products for my hair !
those are excellent! I don't think anyone has mentioned those yet and I can't agree more! I really need to add more flowers around here. it truly makes a difference in the middle of january
I've had such a complicated relationship with clothes and dressing for far too long, especially denim jeans. I used to hate my bum and my legs in basically everything. But for some reason, after watching this video - especially the styling tips and pointers that you gave on what you LIKED about the jeans and what would be different if you didn't like the jeans - everything just clicked... Immediately went and tried on all the jeans I owned and realised what actually worked on my body. Love it, subscribed XXXX Thank you so much
What a great video 👏 It has made me think about important issues like what I want to spend my time on as opposed to what I want to buy. I had a really scary health scare in the middle of December 2022 that almost put so much fear in me that I couldn't think straight. So I can relate to the quote on your note. Quality time with my son and 🐩, working on changing my home to reflect who I am (like you advocate with clothes) and investing time making sure I stay healthy. A girlfriend's mother said: "You may have a long list of wishes, but when you are sick, you only wish for one thing." I am SO thankful that I am healthy!
I love seeing the more personal side to you! And I'm totally in love with that catsuit/blazer outfit; definitely going to recreate that one with a similar pair of Schutz boots that I have!
I would love a laundry/taking care of clothes video! Especially with high quality (and price tag) pieces, you want to make sure they're well taken care of.
Hi Bethany! Just wanted to say that I'm super proud of your body transformation. You look amazing!! I've recently started investing in clothes and I am clueless on how to take care of them. I would be really grateful if you show us how to. Loving your new style of videos, btw!
1. Good quality sheets. The older I get, the more I’ve come to understand the importance of good quality rest and having comfortable, soft bedding has really improved my quality of sleep in recent years. 2. Travel. I love to go on adventure and to expose myself to how other people live. I always meet the most amazing people while traveling and I’ve such incredible stories. Plus, it makes me appreciate my life more. 3. Paying people to do things I can’t do or don’t enjoy doing. There are people who are qualified, enjoy doing it and also need to make a living. I can support others while also keeping my sanity. 😂 P.S. love the new personal format.
Bethany I love this new format, I think it’s more personal and it shows more of you. Since I came upon your videos you really intrigued me with your style, your personality and your spirit. Something about you resonates with me. I have a different body type than you so I try to adhere to your tips as much as I can with what I’ve got to work with. I’m more chesty, less curvy from the bottom and 5’3. 😅 I’m a mommy to a 9 month old now so my life changed completely. While I’m trying to adjust to this new life I like I still get to live some part of me through your videos. Idk if that makes any sense. Anyway. Your house is beautiful! I can’t wait to see more content.
Loved this.❤ I have been watching your videos since 2019 and am currently taking your Style Master course, and I believe the direction you are taking your brand is so beautiful, genuine & unique. Thank you for sharing the Bible verse from your pocket- what an encouragement from above. Wishing you the best of luck as you walk more boldly! Excited for both the more polished and the more raw content ahead- you blend them both wonderfully.
I agree with Zack, that light blue 90’s pair looked good on you. Made me want to try that style. Edit: Finished this video and LOVED the story of your grandfather- wow!
Bethany, I've never commented to you before but I've been watching your videos for about a year and am in the middle of your Master Course right now! I'm really excited to see this "new" side of you, and love how personal you've been getting. As a petite with a looong torso and short legs, I've learned so much from your videos, and now the master class has me thinking about how I dress in a whole new way. :) As to your question of the day: I bought a house at the beginning of 2020, and have spent the last few years furnishing and decorating, so I've been investing in quality, lasting furniture that I hope I will still enjoy in 10-20 years. I've become really interested in sustainability as well, so I'm trying to invest in quality clothes moving forward. Also, I will always invest in travel! I really hope you make it to Italy this year, it's my favorite country!!!
Thank you Bethany, I love the personal touch. Would be great to see a “day in the life” video! Also, fascinating to see you dress for your new figure. I’ve been watching your videos for about a year and am always so inspired by your outfits - particularly the puff sleeves! - but I have very narrow hips so the puff sleeves don’t really work for me! Advice for different body types would be helpful 😊
It was intriguing to listen to your story about your grandfather and the source of your new brand name! I was fascinated by family ancestry as a teenager, and you’re rekindling my interest in the subject!
I absolutely love this style of video and I want more!😊 One thing I’ll always invest in is good quality pens and journals. I don’t necessarily need a fountain pen, but I currently use the Sharpie roller .05 mm and it’s a pleasure to use. It’s a beautiful deep black, fine but bold, and I like the way it drags against paper.
Hi Bethany, Great question! It certainly stumped me. Like you, I invest in great coffee! I love starting my day with perfection in a cup. This coffee habit even brought a funny connection with a local roasters that now sells us coffee in bulk at wholesale prices 👌 But on a deeper level, I’m newly wed and I feel like my husband and I have been investing in our future. I know this is broad, but it does have a very practical outworking. We’ve been making shifts in our careers, I’ve been investing in higher education-this comes with the hopes of provide a bed of stability for our future family. I also love the Bible verse you shared. It was just what I need to hear today and meets me where I am. Thank you for the beautifully crafted videos (as usual) and for the encouragement! Xoxo from California
Loved the video and your family story. I want that boss lady jacket to wear to my new job!!! I’m also wanting to save for a country house now 🙂 so beautiful and peaceful.
The "Choosing Courage" segment was so heartwarming and encouraging. Thank you for sharing 🙏 - May The Lord bless you with accomplishing your desires of following your great grandpa's adventures. #Legacy
Bethany, thank you for the tips to find perfect jeans! I follow your channel already for a while. Trying not to miss any of your videos. Rarely make comments. But I like them all. And I love, love, love your plaid jacket! 👍 ❤️ Thank you!
Could you please do a video about all the books you've talked about relating to the psychology of fashion and the articles you have mentioned? Thank you 😊
I love this question! This might sound cliché but lately I’ve been investing in myself. I’m exhausted from anxiety and chronic health issues, so I’m finally confronting them head on. A long-overdue surgery and therapy are two big expenses. If I do participate in exposure therapy that will trigger my anxiety, I’ll invest in time to rest and recover without feeling guilty about it. Also I’ll invest in hiking trips which bring me peace, good books, time for myself to sit in coffee shops and read and journal. And I’ll spend good money on a good pastry because it brings me joy!
Your home is so beautiful! It just looks like my dream home! Following you from past three years and planning to stay for a long time, thanks to your amazing content, friendly nature and ear pleasing voice;)
Answering your question of the day. These days I'd say I'm investing in self care. I've been getting rid of a ton of possessions that I no longer need and that has given me more freedom, emotionally and physically. Not being weighed down by clutter or having the guilt of keeping something just because a relative gave it to me. I've also been trying more food in order to get healthier and stronger, seeing your fitness transformation has been motivating and I want a body that I'm proud of. And finally I've also been accepting of who I really am and have been leaning into that style wise. I've been feeling so lost lately but these investments seem to be pulling me towards the right path.
Hi Bethany. I love your content. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Could you please talk a bit more about your changes in diet and lifestyle that you have made recently? Thank you. 😊
Hello! Just wanted to say, I don’t think I’ve ever left a comment on any UA-cam video in my life… but I wanted to let you know that I love your channel. It’s so wholesome, authentic, and you have such a refreshing, sweet spirit. ♥️ And to answer your question- I will always invest in relationships. They are the most important thing in my life and I agree with you, I too am a quality over quantity girl.
Love this format! My non-negotiables are health & fitness (gym membership, clean beauty, quality food) and also a quality wardrobe (you're largely the inspiration!). I'm with you on a small close knit circle, but wish it was a little bigger. Working on that;)
Bethany, what a cool story about your Grandpa! Thank you so much for sharing. I love fashion, but I might love history more... and I got both in this video! My Dad is a writer and just had his first book published in 2020. It’s about the gospel, and I love that now the generations after he’s gone will know what was important Grandpa and why. It’s a way he can love and serve them even when he can’t be around to actually talk with them. I just love that. Anyway, that book you showed is a treasure for sure! I always have so much I want to talk to you about after I watch your videos. I had to try to pick one thing! It’s fun getting to know you better. :)
Love this :) I’d really enjoy more content on the care of your clothes. Storing them, how you wash them, hang them, etc. I bought all new black velvet and black wooden hangers for my clothes. For things like cashmere sweaters, I’m always unsure if I should hang or fold, so I just fold!
I fold my cashmere sweaters/ and other sweaters but if they have any wrinkles before wearing, I just freshen it up with a little steaming with the garment steamer. I am using a little organizing box that is lined with quilted fabric that I found on amazon, it came in a pack for a larger size which I use for sweaters and towels, and smaller ones to to fit bras, underwear and socks.
I am loving the variety of your videos. I have been following you for some time now but just now gathering the courage to comment🤭 You are a gem and I learn something new every time I watch your channel. Thank you for all your hard work and I look forward to more content such as this or really, any content you show us❤️
I discovered your channel while searching for styling ideas for items purchased at Sezanne. I wanted to say that I admire your bravery to share parts of yourself so willingly with so many of us. I am old enough to be your mother and I suspect your mother is very proud of you. I also like the timelessness of your style. Thanks!!
Yesss!!! Please!!!! I'm from México, I've been watching you videos for at least 3 years and I would love to know from you how to take care of clothes :) wishing you and all a nice day
Hi Bethany, Congratulations on your body transformation. My husband and I started 75 Hard about 10 days ago and I hope that my transformation goes as well as yours. I recently bought a Free People jacket from your sale and it was a little snug so I am looking forward to trying it on again in a few weeks. As for investing, I think the best thing to invest in is people and spending time in God's word.
1. I will always invest in books: non-fiction and recipe books in particular. 2. Skincare and haircare: I absolutely love clothes but have found that taking care of my skin and hair has more of an impact on my confidence. 3. I will always invest in my marriage: the quality of our relationships is the quality of our lives. After a year of marriage I’m continuously astounded by the improvements to my well being.
With the little window I would do the second one the ones with the up and down lines, and my favorite was your boots, and the clothes on the rack in the back, and you look very beautiful in those shirts,
Giggled when you said, “this feels pancake to me” 😂 but I totally agree, a good pair of jeans needs to be perfect for the booty! Loving this more casual style of videos :) 💞
Hey!!! Such a beautiful story behind the name Leonardo!! Love from a petite French girl from Paris France 🇫🇷 ! I’m new here on your channel and I’m loving your content! By the way, I love the catsuit (I own a couple of them too) and the entire outfit 😊
I'm someone who is very careful about what objects I bring home, whether it's decor, clothes, nick-nacks. I feel like plastic-based items have a different energy to them than organic material found naturally, so I feel like developing a home that is natural with good lighting and air flow is a must. Also good coffee, always good coffee!
Dear Bethany, Answer to your question; I love to invest in three areas: 1- travel for learning purpose and hiking trails; 2- quality of food; and 3- quality of cloths. Maybe is to much but that is me. Also I would love more information about taking care of cloths. What hangers are great for cashmere? How wool fabrics will endure? Etc. Thank you for your channel from another petite woman.
Bethany I would absolutely love to know more about how you take care of your clothes. I don’t have a wool wash setting on my washing machine but also can’t afford the dry cleaners. If you have any tips on how to maintain and care for wool clothing at home that would be so appreciated, especially as since taking your course I am now trying to buy quality over quantity and have already invested in a lovely wool coat and wool jumper. The three things I am prepared to invest in in life are definitely travel/experiences (i.e. gigs), food (but only select things such as olive oil and free range/organic meat) and (now - since your course!) clothing 🥰
Question of the day! What are the things in life you will ALWAYS invest in? (whether it's through your time, money, or energy.) Mine are good clothes, good friends, and good coffee :)
Mine are clean skin care products, sustainable clothes, gold jewlery, my amazing job and my family.
ooo totally with you on clean skin care products! trying to make the switch with my cleanser especially...would love to know your brand recommendations
E d u c a t i o n
H e a l t h
Mental health, memorable experiences, good food!
Good books, good conversation, good music.
Definitely yes to garment care video! I’ve been eagerly awaiting this, now that I’m choosing to invest more in quality (and fewer) pieces, I want to learn how to wash/dry/hang my clothing to make it last ❤
It is so important to know how to care and wash our clothes and when we do so it's amazing how they can last for years!
totally agree!
Yes please to this vid idea 🙏
Yes please!
I feel like your personality is really shinning through with this new format. It’s great! Keep choosing bravery!

Agreed! Good coffee. And something you taught me - a tailor! I had a few pairs of denim I never wore because they were too long for me.
Too true! 🤗
The story behind Leonardo is so beautiful, thank you for sharing Bethany!💛
Such a moving story about your grandfather! To find his own words, that’s so incredible!
Just did this exercise last night! :)
- my health (physical/mental)
- a curated wardrobe
- travelling
LOVE those!
Dear Bethany, I've been watching your channel for a year now. I love your style and personality! Great story of finding your grandfather! Best wishes for continued success!
Thank you for always posting such high-quality videos, I feel like I leave each video learning something new. A video on how you take care of your clothes would be incredible as I'm very lost in this area. Thank you again!

Would LOOOOVE a video about how you take care of your clothes ❤ Everlane denim is always a win for me as well. Surprisingly good!

Yes to a video on keeping whites white and caring for clothing!
Bethany, I gotta say my eye is immediately drawn to your belt! That’s so beautiful, love the western aesthetic and DAMN…I’d say you found THE PERFECT pair of jeans! I will always invest my time in my kids, because my time is my most valuable possession and my kids are the next generation! There’s no better investment ❤
thank you so much! And that is so sweet, you're completely right!
Would LOVE a video about how to care for different types of fabrics!
Wow! I love the story and book about your great-grandfather! That is the best! Courage and much love!❤️🌹
I love how the high waist rigid Jean looks but as much as I try them and buy them, I realize I can’t sit in them with any level of comfort and I’m always popping open the buttons when driving etc 😅 so I think my life is telling me I need the stretch
Always invest in counseling, beautiful experiences (travel), food, time with family, education. PS- your vulnerability allows us to be more open too. Thanks for creating that space. ❤
Beautiful video 🤍
Investing:
1. My sons and husband
2. My clothes
3. Food (and coffee too!)
Yes, to your care tips aswell ✨

Clothes, food, and bed sheets! I want to start investing more in loungewear and PJs for those cozy evenings.❤
It's so gloomy,kinda depressive here today,but listening to u is so fresh & refreshing & it makes me be more grateful,thanks dearly bethany x leonardo
My dear Bethany, you were the first I followed on You Tube, I love your new content! Keep up the good work
I absolutely LOVE everything about your channel, and the new direction you’re going as well. 2 Timothy is one of my favorite scriptures !!
Bethany, congratulations on your journey to self discovery and identity! ❤ You are the only influencer I trust with personal style. I love your artistry, commitment to your work, and vulnerability. I have to say, your humility is so refreshing. That’s why I love your content. You put time and effort in educating others about personal style, rather than making the video a huge “flex” lol! Keep up the great work! ✨
I will always invest in
1) God and my faith
2) Relationships. Particularly with my husband and baby girl (I’m trying to keep phone use to a minimum, so they have my undivided attention).
3) Quality clothing
Hi, Bethany. My three items are my education, my entrepreneurship, and my writing. That's all! Great content as always. 😊😊😊
I completely agree with your list of three. Additionally, I will always invest in skincare/makeup products. Even though I'm pretty minimal when it comes to both, I'm concerned about the quality of what goes directly on my skin.
Love that! I remember the day I switched from cheaper cosmetics and it made a world of difference ✨
I invest is things that make me vibrant...health, adventure, friendships, or a great jacket. Yes to showing us how to care for both clothes and jewelry. Hesitant to invest until I have a plan to care for heirloom items long term.
Adventures! What a great answer 🙌
I'm a fairly new subscriber. Personally, I love this format! The breakdown feels natural, too! In terms of answering your question....

Oh ! Bethany!! That was heart moving!!! I loved it!!! Thank you for sharing! So awesome!!!
Thanks Vickie!
Authentic Antiques, true friends , good quality classic clothes and watching your channel ❤
I am excited for this next chapter. I’m looking forward to your new content!
I really enjoyed watching this video! To answer your question, I will always invest in beautiful flowers for my house (a very big passion for me, it brings me so much joy), my sleep (amount of time and the bed itself) and last is good products for my hair !
those are excellent! I don't think anyone has mentioned those yet and I can't agree more! I really need to add more flowers around here. it truly makes a difference in the middle of january

Yes on clothing care and washing tips!!!! :)
Great tips- totally didn’t think about blue jeans dying on the white boots. I am interested in learning how you care for clothing. Great video!
I love seeing the more personal side to you! And I'm totally in love with that catsuit/blazer outfit; definitely going to recreate that one with a similar pair of Schutz boots that I have!
Nice! Nothing like getting inspiration!
I would love a laundry/taking care of clothes video! Especially with high quality (and price tag) pieces, you want to make sure they're well taken care of.
Hi Bethany!
Just wanted to say that I'm super proud of your body transformation. You look amazing!!
I've recently started investing in clothes and I am clueless on how to take care of them. I would be really grateful if you show us how to.
Loving your new style of videos, btw!
The best is to read the washing instructions and follow it and they can last you for many years ☺️
1. Good quality sheets. The older I get, the more I’ve come to understand the importance of good quality rest and having comfortable, soft bedding has really improved my quality of sleep in recent years.
2. Travel. I love to go on adventure and to expose myself to how other people live. I always meet the most amazing people while traveling and I’ve such incredible stories. Plus, it makes me appreciate my life more.

P.S. love the new personal format.
Sundance has some wonderful options for belts. They also have some wonderful western inspired jewelry and clothing.
Bethany I love this new format, I think it’s more personal and it shows more of you. Since I came upon your videos you really intrigued me with your style, your personality and your spirit. Something about you resonates with me. I have a different body type than you so I try to adhere to your tips as much as I can with what I’ve got to work with. I’m more chesty, less curvy from the bottom and 5’3. 😅 I’m a mommy to a 9 month old now so my life changed completely. While I’m trying to adjust to this new life I like I still get to live some part of me through your videos. Idk if that makes any sense. Anyway. Your house is beautiful! I can’t wait to see more content.
Loved this.❤ I have been watching your videos since 2019 and am currently taking your Style Master course, and I believe the direction you are taking your brand is so beautiful, genuine & unique. Thank you for sharing the Bible verse from your pocket- what an encouragement from above. Wishing you the best of luck as you walk more boldly! Excited for both the more polished and the more raw content ahead- you blend them both wonderfully.
Amazing!
I agree with Zack, that light blue 90’s pair looked good on you. Made me want to try that style.
Edit: Finished this video and LOVED the story of your grandfather- wow!
Bethany, I've never commented to you before but I've been watching your videos for about a year and am in the middle of your Master Course right now! I'm really excited to see this "new" side of you, and love how personal you've been getting. As a petite with a looong torso and short legs, I've learned so much from your videos, and now the master class has me thinking about how I dress in a whole new way. :) As to your question of the day: I bought a house at the beginning of 2020, and have spent the last few years furnishing and decorating, so I've been investing in quality, lasting furniture that I hope I will still enjoy in 10-20 years. I've become really interested in sustainability as well, so I'm trying to invest in quality clothes moving forward. Also, I will always invest in travel! I really hope you make it to Italy this year, it's my favorite country!!!
Thank you Bethany, I love the personal touch. Would be great to see a “day in the life” video! Also, fascinating to see you dress for your new figure. I’ve been watching your videos for about a year and am always so inspired by your outfits - particularly the puff sleeves! - but I have very narrow hips so the puff sleeves don’t really work for me! Advice for different body types would be helpful 😊
It was intriguing to listen to your story about your grandfather and the source of your new brand name! I was fascinated by family ancestry as a teenager, and you’re rekindling my interest in the subject!
isn't it a wonderful hobby? BTW your picture is on my fridge! Thanks for sending
@@Dearlybethany Oh, my goodness! On your fridge? 🥰 I feel so special! Glad you received it!
Thank you for sharing. Shopping for jeans can be such a challenge. You made it look so easy. :) and I'm with you on good quality coffee!
I absolutely love this style of video and I want more!😊 One thing I’ll always invest in is good quality pens and journals. I don’t necessarily need a fountain pen, but I currently use the Sharpie roller .05 mm and it’s a pleasure to use. It’s a beautiful deep black, fine but bold, and I like the way it drags against paper.
Hi Bethany,
Great question! It certainly stumped me. Like you, I invest in great coffee! I love starting my day with perfection in a cup. This coffee habit even brought a funny connection with a local roasters that now sells us coffee in bulk at wholesale prices 👌
But on a deeper level, I’m newly wed and I feel like my husband and I have been investing in our future. I know this is broad, but it does have a very practical outworking. We’ve been making shifts in our careers, I’ve been investing in higher education-this comes with the hopes of provide a bed of stability for our future family.
I also love the Bible verse you shared. It was just what I need to hear today and meets me where I am. Thank you for the beautifully crafted videos (as usual) and for the encouragement!
Xoxo from California
Loved the video and your family story. I want that boss lady jacket to wear to my new job!!! I’m also wanting to save for a country house now 🙂 so beautiful and peaceful.
I loved the scripture that encouraged you! God’s Word will never return void! 🙏🏻🥰
The "Choosing Courage" segment was so heartwarming and encouraging. Thank you for sharing 🙏 - May The Lord bless you with accomplishing your desires of following your great grandpa's adventures. #Legacy
Bethany, thank you for the tips to find perfect jeans!
I follow your channel already for a while. Trying not to miss any of your videos. Rarely make comments. But I like them all.
And I love, love, love your plaid jacket! 👍 ❤️ Thank you!
Could you please do a video about all the books you've talked about relating to the psychology of fashion and the articles you have mentioned? Thank you 😊
I love this question! This might sound cliché but lately I’ve been investing in myself. I’m exhausted from anxiety and chronic health issues, so I’m finally confronting them head on. A long-overdue surgery and therapy are two big expenses. If I do participate in exposure therapy that will trigger my anxiety, I’ll invest in time to rest and recover without feeling guilty about it. Also I’ll invest in hiking trips which bring me peace, good books, time for myself to sit in coffee shops and read and journal. And I’ll spend good money on a good pastry because it brings me joy!
Love this
16:47 had me cracking up! I jut found these videos. She is so effortless and authentic
Your home is so beautiful! It just looks like my dream home! Following you from past three years and planning to stay for a long time, thanks to your amazing content, friendly nature and ear pleasing voice;)
I’d love to see a video on caring/ washing/ maintaining clothes. Love all your videos Bethany.
Answering your question of the day. These days I'd say I'm investing in self care.
I've been getting rid of a ton of possessions that I no longer need and that has given me more freedom, emotionally and physically. Not being weighed down by clutter or having the guilt of keeping something just because a relative gave it to me.
I've also been trying more food in order to get healthier and stronger, seeing your fitness transformation has been motivating and I want a body that I'm proud of.
And finally I've also been accepting of who I really am and have been leaning into that style wise. I've been feeling so lost lately but these investments seem to be pulling me towards the right path.
love those improvements, Zeo!
Hi Bethany.
I love your content. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
Could you please talk a bit more about your changes in diet and lifestyle that you have made recently?
Thank you. 😊
Coffee is it for me too!
Bethany you look stunning! And I am in love with your home
Hello! Just wanted to say, I don’t think I’ve ever left a comment on any UA-cam video in my life… but I wanted to let you know that I love your channel. It’s so wholesome, authentic, and you have such a refreshing, sweet spirit. ♥️
And to answer your question- I will always invest in relationships. They are the most important thing in my life and I agree with you, I too am a quality over quantity girl.
oh my, i feel so honored to be the recipient of your first YT comment! love that relationships are number 1 for you :)
Love this format! My non-negotiables are health & fitness (gym membership, clean beauty, quality food) and also a quality wardrobe (you're largely the inspiration!). I'm with you on a small close knit circle, but wish it was a little bigger. Working on that;)
Bethany, what a cool story about your Grandpa! Thank you so much for sharing. I love fashion, but I might love history more... and I got both in this video! My Dad is a writer and just had his first book published in 2020. It’s about the gospel, and I love that now the generations after he’s gone will know what was important Grandpa and why. It’s a way he can love and serve them even when he can’t be around to actually talk with them. I just love that. Anyway, that book you showed is a treasure for sure! I always have so much I want to talk to you about after I watch your videos. I had to try to pick one thing! It’s fun getting to know you better. :)
Love this :) I’d really enjoy more content on the care of your clothes. Storing them, how you wash them, hang them, etc. I bought all new black velvet and black wooden hangers for my clothes. For things like cashmere sweaters, I’m always unsure if I should hang or fold, so I just fold!
I fold my cashmere sweaters/ and other sweaters but if they have any wrinkles before wearing, I just freshen it up with a little steaming with the garment steamer. I am using a little organizing box that is lined with quilted fabric that I found on amazon, it came in a pack for a larger size which I use for sweaters and towels, and smaller ones to to fit bras, underwear and socks.
I am loving the variety of your videos.
I have been following you for some time now but just now gathering the courage to comment🤭
You are a gem and I learn something new every time I watch your channel.
Thank you for all your hard work and I look forward to more content such as this or really, any content you show us❤️
Would love to see you in a flare jean!! I think that 70s vibe would look amazing on you
I discovered your channel while searching for styling ideas for items purchased at Sezanne. I wanted to say that I admire your bravery to share parts of yourself so willingly with so many of us. I am old enough to be your mother and I suspect your mother is very proud of you. I also like the timelessness of your style. Thanks!!
Family, friends, pets, coffee and books all of the books. Learning to invest in better clothes also 😊
Yesss!!! Please!!!! I'm from México, I've been watching you videos for at least 3 years and I would love to know from you how to take care of clothes :) wishing you and all a nice day
So thankful for you! 🙏❤️🙏
I love quality in general. Food, cloth and fragrances💗
I appreciate your new honesty and way of sharing. You seem very confident. I too love good strong coffee.
Hi Bethany, Congratulations on your body transformation. My husband and I started 75 Hard about 10 days ago and I hope that my transformation goes as well as yours. I recently bought a Free People jacket from your sale and it was a little snug so I am looking forward to trying it on again in a few weeks. As for investing, I think the best thing to invest in is people and spending time in God's word.
Had to come back🌸🌍...trulllyyy excited for your Europe trip 🤗
I never comment but I’m so happy to see your brave new style of video! The things I will always invest in are Food and Fragrance (perfumes!)
Always looking forward to your videos, Bethany! xo
1. I will always invest in books: non-fiction and recipe books in particular.
2. Skincare and haircare: I absolutely love clothes but have found that taking care of my skin and hair has more of an impact on my confidence.
3. I will always invest in my marriage: the quality of our relationships is the quality of our lives. After a year of marriage I’m continuously astounded by the improvements to my well being.
I always always invest in adventure, time with hubs/pups, and self care.
With the little window I would do the second one the ones with the up and down lines, and my favorite was your boots, and the clothes on the rack in the back, and you look very beautiful in those shirts,
Yess please share how you take care of your clothes ❤
Id LOVE a video on caring for clothes!!!!!
Giggled when you said, “this feels pancake to me” 😂 but I totally agree, a good pair of jeans needs to be perfect for the booty! Loving this more casual style of videos :) 💞
Wow,speechless!!!!!May God bless u today & always
Your house is so dreamy! ☺️ ❤
oh thank you so much!
Hey!!! Such a beautiful story behind the name Leonardo!! Love from a petite French girl from Paris France 🇫🇷 ! I’m new here on your channel and I’m loving your content! By the way, I love the catsuit (I own a couple of them too) and the entire outfit 😊
I will always invest in my food and wine! And really good haircuts!
I'm someone who is very careful about what objects I bring home, whether it's decor, clothes, nick-nacks. I feel like plastic-based items have a different energy to them than organic material found naturally, so I feel like developing a home that is natural with good lighting and air flow is a must. Also good coffee, always good coffee!
i really wish everlane can start making mid rise versions of these because of my short torso! I would soooo buy them all
Dear Bethany,
Answer to your question; I love to invest in three areas:
1- travel for learning purpose and hiking trails;
2- quality of food; and
3- quality of cloths.
Maybe is to much but that is me. Also I would love more information about taking care of cloths. What hangers are great for cashmere? How wool fabrics will endure? Etc.
Thank you for your channel from another petite woman.
Would love to hear how you changed your diet and see a vlog on how you eat now….or how you count macros.
Great video! And yes to the garment video
Bethany I would absolutely love to know more about how you take care of your clothes. I don’t have a wool wash setting on my washing machine but also can’t afford the dry cleaners. If you have any tips on how to maintain and care for wool clothing at home that would be so appreciated, especially as since taking your course I am now trying to buy quality over quantity and have already invested in a lovely wool coat and wool jumper.
The three things I am prepared to invest in in life are definitely travel/experiences (i.e. gigs), food (but only select things such as olive oil and free range/organic meat) and (now - since your course!) clothing 🥰
I definitely want more information on how you care for certain items🥰
