Them a chance now the first Trend that Has taken me a really long time to warm Up to and I'm super pleased that I have And I think that you may be a little bit The same and that is tweed jackets now You know the jackets that I mean they're Sort of Chanel-esque kind of jackets and in my Find they've always seemed a little bit Too mature or even slightly Old-fashioned but I love the fact that They are trending big time now and for Me I love the look of them paired back With something a little unexpected so Wearing them worn back with denim jeans Or distressed denim or with cargo pants Just in a way that is just not what you Would automatically think of pairing a Sophisticated Timeless tweed jacket with so I think The key really is in styling and how you Pair them back with other pieces that Are just a little bit more modern and a Little bit more say Street I've actually Ordered a couple of Tweed jackets so let Me know in the comments below if you Would like to see how I plan on styling Them and I'll do that real soon because I can't wait when something arrives I Can't wait to create outfits with it but Also let me know do you like Tweed Jackets is this a trend that you could See yourself warming to or is it one That you have worn and loved for years I
Would love to know now this one I'm sure I'm going to come under Fire for because I have talked a little bit about corset Belts on my channel before and I haven't Been a fan if I'm honest but I've Definitely warmed to them and I think What I do particularly like about these Corset belts which are trending at the Moment is that they give some of the Oversized pieces that we've all been Wearing a little bit of shape and Sometimes just giving a little bit of Shape and creating a silhouette gives an Outfit a more feminine look but it also Just gives it more interest and it's Just generally more flattering so I love The fact that these corset belts create A lovely silhouette and some shape to an Outfit but they also add interest and Texture which in my opinion is the Easiest way just to make a a simple Outfit or a dress or a very simple piece Elevated and modern so I love the fact That with these belts it's just one Extra layer but it creates a a real wow Outfit now one of the big color trends For winter is brown and I've never been A huge fan fan of brown I've always seen It as a little bit of a maybe a Dowdy Sort of color but I've Revisited Brown And I actually think that it's such a Versatile neutral to wear it pairs Beautifully with navy which is another Color dollar Trend that we are seeing
Everywhere it also looks beautiful Paired back with white pale blue there Are so many options to wear the color Brown it is a really good neutral and I Keep reading that brown is the New Black For winter so I think it's worth dipping Your toe into this trend if you're a Little bit nervous maybe one of the Easiest ways to get started is to just Add a few brown leather accessories to Your outfits because accessories do Generally are the gateway drug into a Trend pardon that saying but they are Sort of the easiest way to to try out a Trend without really putting yourself Out there big time so accessories are Always a good thing or a good way to do That I find now it's taken me a long Time to warm up to faux fur coats now Don't get me wrong I'm not saying that I Love real fur I'm not an advocate for Wearing real fur at all but faux fur Just never seemed to feel great in fact I've got a couple of coats and jackets That I even take the faux fur collar off Because it just they the faux fur just Felt Ah really not nice it wasn't soft it Felt plasticky probably because it was But I think what's happened is that faux Fur has come a long way the technology Has improved and it feels better and It's nicer to wear it's not scratchy so There are some great faux fur options
And for me it's the only way to go these Days so faux fur is something that I Have taken a while to get my head around But it's helped because technology has Caught up and the faux fur that's on Offer these days is definitely a better Quality and the sort of quality that you Can keep forever which I think is really Key now next up I've really struggled to Get my head around suiting now I love Wearing Blazers and I love wearing pants But I've never really invested in a suit A matching suit because I think I I Lived through the 80s and 90s when power Suits were a thing with big shoulder Pads and for me I equated that style of Dressing with a corporate office sort of Arena whereas in fact that's just not How it needs to be and I've I've as I Said taken a while to get my head around This but I've realized that suiting is Is ideal because it can be worn as a Suit together a suit can look more Casual if you team a simple T underneath Pair it with trainers and also you've Got that versatility of wearing the Pieces separately as well so I've had to Get out of the mindset of thinking of Suits as something that is a corporate Outfit to really getting my head around The fact that they're not nowadays Suiting is just a great way to dress Smart casual and quite often smart Casual is one of those Styles that's
Quite difficult to really nail down but In my opinion suiting is perfect for That smart casual look now next up I'm Sure some of you will laugh at me Because of this but it's taken me a very Long time to get my head around the idea Of wearing cowboy boots but luckily I've Finally come on board to this trend Because they are huge this season I'm Sure you've seen them online or in the Shops but I do think that cowboy boots If they're paired back a little bit are A Timeless classic and certainly if you Live in cowboy country they have always Been a Timeless classic for you I'm not Telling you anything you don't already Know but I do think that a great pair of Cowboy boots can look amazing and I've Recently seen some teamed with beautiful Sequined dresses and again I think what Gives them that sort of Modern Edge is How you style these pieces and teaming Them with pieces that you wouldn't Imagine so that sort of unexpected Pairing is what in my mind makes them Modern and fresh and just gives them a Little bit of a fashion Edge so cowboy Boots I am here for I am on the hunt for The perfect pair tell me where you buy Your cowboy boots I would love to know Now this one is an interesting one Coming from me because I took years to Warm up to the idea of thrifting and now I'm a huge fan in fact I recently
Thrifted a very expensive designer label Puffer jacket here and I have to keep Fighting my teenage son for it because He loves it but I managed to Thrift it I Think I paid 35 it was a 200 puffer Jacket it was hardly worn but it has Taken me a long time to get my head Around thrifting and the key things that I have realized with thrifting is that It's a long game and it's not a fast Game and generally you do have to invest A bit of time to uncover some of those Gems especially if you're really looking For a bargain and you've got something In mind that you're hunting for it's not As easy as going to a a store and Picking something out but when you find Something for less and it means that you Get to enjoy a piece that has how to Form a life it is just such a great Feeling so think about thrifting if you Hadn't because it's been something that I've really enjoyed doing over the last Couple of years so thrifting took me a Long time to get my head around but I'm So pleased I finally did now this one I've struggled to get my head around and I have dabbled with the trend over the Years but not for quite a few seasons Now and that is cropped jackets but I Must say that crop jackets are just the Most versatile piece because they go With pretty much everything and they're Really flattering it's basically giving
You an extra layer of warmth but not Taking over an outfit I I think I've Seen some with some gorgeous maxi Dresses and I love the fact that you Even through the cooler months can wear These beautiful more summery pieces But you've got the coverage there with a Cropped jacket but as I said the crop of The jacket means that it doesn't Completely take over and hide the outfit Underneath it can be really Complementary and if you're worried About crop jackets making you appear Shorter in the Torso all you need to do Because because some of the crop jackets Do just crop you at the wrong part which Tends to draw your eye there and can Give the appearance of a shorter torso If you're short wasted so if that's case For you the only thing I would say is Just be really aware of where your crop Falls because that is where the eye will Be drawn to and if you are short-waisted What I tend to find works really well is Monochrome dressing so wear the same Color underneath as the jacket and that Just creates a long unbroken line which Tends to elongate your body so if you do Have a short torso and you're short Waisted and you love cropped jackets That's the way to wear them but they're A trend that I absolutely love and in Fact I've talked about it before I'm Going to do it in one of these videos
And that is crop an old denim jacket of Mine because I think it's going to be Super handy now next up the trend for Wearing really wide leg jeans has taken Me a long time to wrap my head around And I'm disappointed because I know for A fact that they are really flattering To most figures and in fact you will Find a pair of wide leg jeans that will Flatter your figure it's just about Trying on a few different pairs and in My opinion wide leg jeans are a little Bit more I think they look a little bit more Polished and a little bit more put Together and just a little bit more Dressy than your average pair of denim Jeans and there's all sorts of varieties Of wide leg jeans from your super wide To more of your sort of straight not too Floaty and wide and oversized so there's Kind of something for everyone and yeah As I said they are really flattering and They do just tend to give an outfit a More polished look one word of warning Though is to make sure that you do Balance your proportions so the wider The leg on the bottom the more fitted You probably should be looking at your Top half being now that doesn't have to Be always the case but that generally is A good rule of thumb to follow and Anything shearling has really just taken Me so long to get my head around I think
It's something to do with the faux fur Kind of phenomenon that has just taken Me a little bit to get around as well But Schilling has come such a long way And I've seen some really gorgeous Czech Shearling Blazers so the Styles have Evolved the fabric has evolved and Shearling in my mind is such a snuggly Warm cozy winter fabric to wear so I'm a Recent convert to shearling jackets I'm Going to show you a couple here that Really swayed me and changed my mind but Let me know in the comments below are You a fan of shearling or not Oh and if you're a fashion lover like me And you would also like to look 10 years Younger then click or tap the video on The screen now and I'll see you in the Next one thanks again for watching and a Big thank you to glassesusa.com for Sponsoring today's episode don't forget To click that link have a little shop Online and check out the amazing eyewear That they have on offer see you soon
