My mother bought a cashmere sweater vest in the 1950s and still had it in wonderful condition when she died in 2015. My sister has it now, and it is almost 70 years old.
Wow ..that’s impressive❤
Glad that some sections were not chewed by moths or other insects. I wonder how to keep a natural fiber [or even a blend] material of clothing stay in pristine condition aside from living in a cooler climate all year long... perhaps pack it in a plastic? Sorry, no idea... I am from an archipelago country where it's mostly humid... but would love to learn some tips on this subject. TFS☺.
If you live in a cold(er) climate I'd extend out the jacket/blazer suggestion to include the best quality winter coat you can afford - in a flattering silhouette for your body type and made of a fabric that''s suitable for your particular weather situation. One friend spent a fortune on a goose down parka that absorbs rain like a sponge - basically useless for our winters. Another friend buys the cheapest coat possible each winter and then complains that it's falling apart/unwearable by March. I can't afford a coat that sits in my closet 11 out of 12 months, or a cheapo coat I have to replace every year. I have a classic, navy wool coat from Benetton I got in the 90s - replaced the lining last year - still going strong.
Well said ! LL Bean and/or Lands End makes a " 3-in-1 coat " - great for those of us who need options for the days of quickly changing weather during three out of four seasons . Often on sale , nice color choices , & can be machine washed . ( Cold water Woolite , gentle cycle , a few minutes tumble dry on low , then hang to dry - my coat still looks & feels great after years of serious wearing ! 🥰 )
Love your taste in interiors! Would be amazing to see more videos related to decorating!
I love cashmere, it’s the only wool I can wear next to my very sensitive skin. In the uk there is a company called ‘Nearly New Cashmere’ they recondition & sell secondhand cashmere or if a sweater for example is beyond repair they turn it into accessories-gloves, hats etc.
I think your suggestions are spot on. Even if you cant travel to the next town, take yourself out for a nice dinner once a month. As a consultant who travelled all the time, I have eaten many great meals alone. The staff is usually very nice, make a reservation for a booth if possible. Every year for many years I have invested in a cashmere sweater or outfit. They NEVER go out of style. I live in Florida, still perfect. for 3 out of 4 seasons, needed in air conditioning in the summer. My first year in my own business I bought myself a gift...a watercolor for over my bed. Thirty years later I still look at it with pride! I like to buy Italian shoes esp with leather soles. You are so correct about timeless styles and high quality shoes can be re-soled and made to look new by a good shoemaker. Finally, I wanted to praise the concept of shopping in your own ( or your grandmother's) closet or thrifting. Items made of silk, wool, and even linen are always in fashion. Just buy a steamer! Great job❤️
Years ago I bought a very expensive dark tan leather handbag. It was beautiful and almost every time I used it someone would comment on how handsome it was. I used that bag for over 10 years and eventually found it too large when I needed a shoulder bag for greater convenience. It went to a charity shop and I hope that the next owner loved it as much as I did. Thanks for a very thoughtful and thought provoking Audrey.
I've for the last years more and more fallen in love with just good quality elegant basics. Silk blouses and cashmere sweaters. Comes with a cost, but oh so elegant!
Your presentation is soothing , informative and delightful. Thank you.
Discreet elegance is the best! Thanks for your suggestions. Happy Valentine's! 😀💖
Hello Audrey! I agree with your suggestions. However I think that what one should invest in largely depends on one´s lifestyle and place of living. I live in the North, so good winter coats and shoes are a must, cashmere sweaters and scarves as well. The quality of my Summer clothing is acceptable, not luxurious, Summers are rather short here. Basically, I tend to rely on M&S, when I buy things for Summer, their linen mix trousers etc. are quite good. But Summer or Winter, my shoes are from Italy. As you stated, Audrey, good shoes last longer and are comfortable. I wish you a nice week! 🐩👗🧥🧣
You did a video like this a few years ago. It was the first video of yours I saw and made me a forever Audrey fan.❤
Your outfit is STUNNING. That belt is everything
Wonderful " life lessons " ! Adding best quality furniture , both wood & upholstery pieces, as lifetime investments . Also , no matter the purchase , proper care is necessary , from art work to clothing to vehicle maintenance , etc. 🥰
I have a trench coat, hoodie, scarf and bag all from Burberry and I wear them most of the time. I do not regret any of the purchases.
All your tips are spot on. Simply elegant is timeless. Shoes have always been the number one luxury item for me, even more now as I age. My mother taught me to never compromise the health of my feet and to always choose a well-made and comfortable shoe as well as a nice watch (stressed more for my brother). Also I love diamonds; however, due to the circumstances of their mining and the dangerous fleecing of people I now chose to either wear conflict-free diamonds, sustainable diamonds, or not wear diamonds at all. I love your videos and have been a subscriber for a long while now.Thank you for considering this option as an alternative to enjoy such a naturally beautiful, yet, controversial accessory.
All our pieces are made with gold from conflict-free regions as well as lab-grown diamonds so you don't have to worry about the downsides of wearing diamonds with idyl🤩
@@idyljewelry Thank you.
It's hard to find a 100% wool coat these days, though it used to be easy. As for cashmere sweaters, my impression (possibly wrong) is that they're hard to launder and care for. I do love 100% wool for a sweater or winter coat, as I have experience with that. I had a beautiful wool/cashmere winter coat years ago that I got in Filene's Basement back in the day that I loved. The cashmere made the wool so much softer. It was red, and at that time I always wanted a red coat to get me through the harsh Northeastern winters.
eBay!
@@hopeyhope2012 Thank you. I have no experience with ebay.
I recently bought a 100% wool coat on Poshmark for $40. It's in great shape and a classic.
@@myobee9875 I’m new to it as well but if you spend a little time figuring out search terms that produce the best results for what you want, you can find some incredible items.
The cashmere I have I have not found hard to launder. I am careful washing it and never dry it.
When I was living in Milano, I absolutely needed a good coat and the good ones always lasted years. I've had my Burberry ones for 12 years and the max mara ones for 5 years so far and they're still in great condition.
In 2016 we took a family vacation to London and Paris (from LA) and I splurged on a pair of black Tieks flats.
I wore them every day, and when we got home I ordered two more pair, in red and navy. Last year I finally replaced the black ones and soon navy and red. Eight years is a very long time and living in California we don’t have terrible weather so these shoes get worn a LOT.
Great video, thanks.
Hey can you do a series on affordable but good quality staples. As someone in my early 20s its difficult to afford your product recommendation
What a great idea! I can definitely do this! ❤️
@@AudreyCoyneI would love this, too. I’m going to surprise my granddaughter with a shopping trip to get her a starter capsule work wardrobe when she starts her new career next fall. She loves classics with an update and quality fabrics. Your style is perfect for her even though you’re quite petite & she’s 5’11!
Audrey, great structure to your presentation. Always a learning experience for me to see how you put it together. Art was a terrific addition - thank you. Loved your comment description about "the guy on the fireplace!" Fun to learn from you. Thank you! Pete
Hi Audrey, thank you for this video. I absolutely agree with all these items. I would add a good quality purse and a good watch. Cheers!
Audrey, would you kindly share where you got your white turtleneck sweater. It is so lovely. Thanks Audrey.
Perfume and skincare- always worth the $.
Beautiful suggestions!!! Will you please share where your gorgeous belt is from?
I invest in furniture I love and quality sleepwear and sheets ❤️
I’ve been wanting to invest in art and had no clue where to even begin! I’d love to hear you talk more about it 🙏🏾
I love your voice and femininity it’s soooooo refreshing
Shoes should never be worn two days in a row if you want them to last (put them on shoe trees inbetween)
Your style and art are truly good sense of style
Have you ever heard asmr? I swear you would have instant followers. Your voice is so cute and calm I really would love to be able to talk like this on my training deliver sessions. You would be awesome at it ! I come hear to hear your voice even if you would be explaining how to extract paraffin from gas or whatever. I am now going through grieving and it’s really hard for me to find something soothing 😢
Love your outfit! You always look so classy and put together. ❤
One of my favorite videos, Audrey! I agree with all your suggestions. We've been grateful to take several family trips, and they're worth every penny. I've never regretted buying any of the items you shared and they've stood the test of time.
Really enjoyed this video. Very good advice!
Thank you for a great video! I completely agree with you on the shoes. I don't mind investing in a good pair of classic shoes that are comfortable. They will last forever with some TLC. Also, good quality wool sweaters and jeans are a must.
Agreed! I would add natural A-grade Burmese Jadeite and all-natural organic mattresses and pillows
Surprised you didn't mention your scarves in this video. Was it simply because you already have a sponsor, so that would clash? I personally don't have a problem with you selling 😊 Absolutely adore this outfit x
She mentions cashmere scarves
Scarves were mentioned
...listen well
@@ruthosasah4272 op means Audrey's own scarf line. I agree she should mention and link her own line. Though she doesn't link it at all so maybe she's not selling them anymore
Thanks!
Very good and useful video as always❤
Wow … you look stunning in this outfit …. ❤
I took your advice years ago and bought The Laundress cashmere product and it works so well! thank you
Awesome video! Thank you🌷❤️🇨🇦
Having children is a luxury item you will never regret 😂 True for me, but not trying to persuade anyone ❤
I bought some expensive pumps in my 20's, that I rarely wore to keep them pristine. When I hit my early 50's I found they no longer fit, my feet grew a 1/2 size....things your mother never tells you. 😢 Wish I would have worn them more. On another note, what do you use to hand wash your cashmere sweaters?
Thanks for sharing 😊
Loro Piana cashmere is for a lifetime. It doesn't bobble and comes in sophisticated colours. And Japanese denim and linen are fantastic
Real Silk Life has beautiful cashmere sweaters. I recently bought a red round neck and beige cable crewneck. The customer service is excellent. Saks Fifth Avenue online has a beautiful Max Mara wool coat on sale. The end of the season is here.
Hello Audrey. Nice to see you again. I agree with your investment pieces, especially shoes. I have found a few brands that provide style and comfort for reasonable prices and they don't include designer brands. I also love cashmere. Where is one of your favorite places to visit outside the U.S.?
Thanks for your great video Andrey! Very useful. /Marie from Sweden
Do you have a video on a well made shoes? I’d love to see your recommendations.
I love your videos ❤ what is stoping me from buying Investment pieces, is that these are new to me items and because of it. I am not sure what would fit me. I have no stores close to home to try on
Remember, if you buy a sweater, cashmere or wool, get a fabric shaver. It removes those pills and the sweater looks brand new.
Think day lillies and tiger lillies and a summer sky. White button-down shirt over a orange shell top. Orange loafers blue jeans.
Love your videos sm
Thank you so much! xx
Bonjour Audrey I have shoes from Prada, Tod's, Chloe, Ferragamo that I bought second-hand (almost new) and they are a source of well-being (beautiful leather, comfortable cut ) and elegance .Definitely worth it. Greetings from Paris.
For sure travel 🧳 expands your mind and heart ❤️. Alaska, Portugal, Istanbul. Venice San Juan you name it… go!
Love your lovely choices
Can you help mr find an alternative to cashmere as I am allergic to all wools
I always buy good quality shoes, try to wear natural fiber clothing, and cook with the best quality ingredients I can find and afford. I will also spend money on good quality European chocolate. 😊
Would love a link to your light belt in your talking outfit, please. And YES on resale Cashmere! I have purchased 6 sweaters over the last two years, each for under 30.00, and one NWT!!!
can you send a link to the bone belt you have on??
I think good shoes are worth the investment if you can afford it. I would love to hear more about how you evaluate a good pair of shoes prior to purchase. I know Italian shoes are considered the pinnacle of quality, but why is that?
It took me awhile but I now only buy two brands of shoes. They fit well and size true so I can buy them online when I find them on sale over 50% off. It does mean that sometimes I don't get a pair in a color I really love because everyone else loves it too. But the next season new colors come along and I find something else I love. I do the same with sweaters and have lately been buying the men's cashmere sweaters because they are longer (I HATE cropped) and they seem better made and there are wonderful jewel tone colors not always offered in the women's sweaters.
What are the two brands of shoes you buy?
Leather gloves with cashmere lining and a good structured leather handbag…will last decades if cared for
I agree. And belts too
Where are the ankle boots from?
I'm willing to invest in: anything tailored, and 40k gold jewelry. You can pass on the jewelry to your daughter, etc making it a heirloom.
Do you have a material recommendation for individuals who are allergic to cashmere but still want a similar feel and quality?
For me also a handbag in a good neutral color, that goes with everything. Shoes im on a fence with, because they can get scuffed easily. Your other tips I loved, Im yet to buy a cashmere because Im also concerned, as someone else mentioned here, how to care for them and wash them
My kids are my biggest luxury item! 😆
Jokes aside, I’m adding a few luxury pieces as I’m able. Timeless work trousers, a couple cashmere sweaters, a nice handbag, a few key jewelry pieces.
I don’t agree on shoes though! I spend max a couple hundred dollars. Their job is to tread on dirt, concrete, etc.! I have purchased a couple nicer brands and am incredibly conscious of not tripping, scuffing, stepping on something. I dont want to be so precious with them!
I agree about shoes; if I spend a lot, I'm afraid to wear them.
Could we please get links to these gorgeous outfits especially jackets? Plsss ❤
I stared buying cashmere sweaters after I found your Chanel but I don’t know why most of them get little wholes on my closet after the first year of buying it. I did wash them before saving them on the closet. Do you have any suggestions for me? I don’t want to keep investing on them to then throw them away. 😢
First video I watched of you. Very pretty and classy style. Really love the turtleneck and belt you are wearing. Would you be so kind to tell where it is from?
Thank you so much! The belt is old from J. Hannah and I don't think she makes belts anymore sadly :( and the turtleneck is vintage Ralph Lauren cashmere xx
@AudreyCoyne ah okay so hard to rebuy but looks lovely on you. Thank you and have a good weekend
Can you share the name of your denim, I like the shape and style . Thank you .
I got better at paying more for shoes, I have certainly learned my lesson with cheap shoes... so bad for your feet. I love Clarks shoes they are so comfortable , right now I am working my way up to buy a pair of good Chelsea boots, I live in New England so a good pair of boots will last me a long time up here
Where did you get your white pants?
You have your values just right....I developed my values by your age too....
Does anyone know of quality shoes in size 3.5 to 4? There are places that specialize in small sizes, but my experience is their quality is not the best.
Travel is a far better investment than anything other than a good quality education and good books...all these experiemces pay dividnds your entire life...clothes are gone in a few years usually....
Cashmere pills. Can also itch. Some can wear it …. Some cannot. So when purchasing think carefully. I am one that cannot wear it.
*Promosm* ☺️
Enjoyed the video to a point as I feel that your speech has sped up considerably over the last six months or so.
Change the speed on the video. You can go all the way down to 1/4 speed if you want to. The speed settings range from double (fastest) to 1/4 speed, and there are 7 different settings.
Talking way too fast
Change the speed on the video. You can go all the way from 1/4 speed to double speed. Your choice.
You speak tooooo fast Slow down please
