Interesting. Iâm a mix of both. My colour palette is absolutely dark academia, but without the gothic aspect, plus I like all the materials and patterns of light academia. And when it comes to the values, mine are more nature-focused and poetic, but melancholic and with a preference for solitude. But, like, solitude in a summery meadow. But in the colour palette of dark academia.
Hi love! Thanks for sharing!
sounds like you're more a romantic academia style then.
@@Just999Me Ohh! I shall look into that! Thank you âșïž
Lol)
Yesss I love cable knit sweaters and thick plaid but like in earth tones, not stark white
Since high school always wear courdoroy and wool pants. Fall and winter have being My favorite season. Also since a child always wear watches. Love this feature and the starting of fall, wich I love it. Thanks for You flackback vĂdeo! Love it
Thank you!! đ€
I've been trying to dress with a "dark academia aesthetic" without even knowing it!! Now I know where else to look for inspiration. You've been so helpful thank you so much!!!! And btw you're drop dead gorgeous!!! I can't even focus on the outfits haha
OMG, you're the sweetest! I'm happy this helped you, thank you so much! đ€
I love the history of how and why styles are what they are, donât forget gray for dark academia.
Hi Robyn, yes, totally. Thank you!
That was amazing! I loved the video: the history, the descriptions, the pictures and the outfits đ I would love to see another video on Cottage Core aesthetic đ
Hi Jessica, that's a great idea, I'll definitely add it to my list! Thank you!
You put so much research into your videos , I'm sure yours is the most informative fashion channel out there
Wow, thank you! đ€
Hi Silvina!
Another great video! Thank you so much for the video, I really appreciate all the research and the care you have during the videos preparation! Very informative! đđž
Hi Karla! Thank you as always, I'm glad it was helpful! đ€
Classic and cool with a twist. I'm liking this academia style. I learned and am inspired! Thank you.
Hi darling, I'm glad you liked it! đ€
This video is so inspiring, I love the way you described both aesthetics and gave so many outfit ideas for both!
Thank you! Iâm glad you enjoyed it! đ€
First video of this subject that kept my interest!!! Great job.
I don't mind watching a video of you taking for 10 minutes because you brought so much information and photo reference to the subject. So many others spent their entire time just talking and occasionally holding up clothes.
I REALLY appreciate that you put in the effort. Your video stands out and I loved every minute of it.
Thank you so much darling, this means a lot to me! I'm glad you enjoyed it! đ€
What an interesting video! Very well documented and informative!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome video! You created some beautiful outfits.
Thank you so much!!
Great presentation! - the origins and core values of the styles, the examples, even the retailers where we can find such pieces! You are my favorite content creator when it comes to explaining styles. :) Your hard work is noticed and very much appreciated!
By the way, I find appropriate wearing light academia in spring/summer and dark acadenia in fall/winter. :)
Thank you so much! I'm happy you find it helpful! đ€ And I love that take of wearing dark academia in autumn/winter and light academia during spring/summer, it's very appropriate!!
You are seriously so pretty!!! Love this aesthetic especially because my favourite season/colour palette is autumn so I tend to lean towards Dark Academia over Light Academia.
That said, I loved every outfit you came up with, they were all very well done and gave me some great new ideas too!!! đâșđ
Omg you're so sweet and I'm glad you enjoyed it!! Thank you so much, I hope you have an awesome day!
Love the plaid pants, vest, jacket trio
Thank you darling!
What a wonderful video! Thanks for sharing. New subscriber. I appreciate how you shared some history and you gave examples with photos, colour palettes, outfits, etc. I would love to see videos with explanations and examples on other fashion subcultures such as cottagecore and librarian chic. Regards from Sydney, Australia đŒ
Thank you, I'm glad you found it helpful!! Welcome! đ€
I love the style, I already dressed like it before I even found out about it. My search for a kinda comfy and androgyn style naturally got me into the direction.
Love it! đ€
I loved the vĂdeo and i feel very satisfied with the information â€
I'm so happy you found it helpful, thank you! đ€
Love love your style :)
Thank you for another awesome video suggestion. Blessings to you always :)
Thank you so much!!
Can I just say how BREATHTAKING you are executing this fashion accurately and beautifully? I am sick and tired of looking at stick-thin girls wearing the look, which really discouraged me from getting into the aesthetic. This video by far was very educational and absolutely stunning!
Omg, this means a lot to me! Thank you so much!
I was feeling the same Iâm overweight and I like to give light academia fashion a try. Because Iâm trying to find my fashion style and I am new to fashion, so I am researching on how to find my style.
This was an excellent presentation! I loved it
Thank you so much! Iâm glad you enjoyed it đ€
I think you are so pretty!
Definitely love light academia. Dark academia reminds me of Ivy League.
Light Academia seems more relaxed, reminds me of beach vibes and Ralph Lauren
Omg thank you so much! I agree, both styles actually take a lot of inspiration from the Preppy and Ivy League styles!
Really enjoyed your video! †I was searching for more information after coming across an online web store called Dark Academias. Never heard of it before and your video helped me to understand it. Thank you! âŠalso, New Subscriber. đ
Thank you so much, I'm glad it was helpful! đ€
Nice outfits ^^
2nd dark academia look, I would style it with brogues with red ankle socks.
3rd light academia look with white Gucci loafers.
Rest is perfect ^^
Thanks for the tips!
I really like these I need to update my wardrobe asap
Iâm glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful camel pants at 9.33đthey fit you perfectly! Zara?? Now all these outfits are for cold weather, how about doing a hot weather lookbook?
Thank you, that's a great idea!
Helpful video. I, too, am a mix of both. I love both a Light academia maybe "Jane Austen aesthetic" you could say but also love a dar/goth aesthetic following my love for Bronte books and the like. Maybe I could follow a light aesthetic in the warm months and dark for fall/winter as others suggested. I agree with others-you are gorgeous. Thank you for your videos and I realize I'm late replying but just found you. Looking forward to watching more soon.
Hi darling, that's actually a great idea, light aesthetic for the warmer months and dark aesthetic for the colder months. I love it! Thank you so much! đ€
Two much black at the beginning. That style is a warm colour aesthetic.
Hi! Not necessarily, Dark Academia is based on an autumn color palette and that includes black. Have a good day!
I love this style it gives me detective vibes đIdk why but yeah
lol it actually does! đ
Can I wear skirts or dresses to fit into the light academia style? Iâm not much of a pants type of person, even though I wear jeans. Iâm finding my style in fashion and Iâm new to fashion. Iâm interested in light academia.
Yes, totally! You can wear dresses and skirts for both of them, it just depends on the style!
Iâm trying to find my own style & itâs incredibly difficult đ but this video definitely helped me ! it was super informative! tysm
I'm so glad it helped you!! I hope you find it eventually, just keep experimenting! Thank you! đ€
Got my blazer got me feeling like a dark academia baddie lmao

@@SilvinaGaiero I'm more thankful
Great job putting this together! In the future when you are modeling the clothes, please donât move around as much.
Hi, thank you!
T is silent in beret as it's French. Tt fot t sound.
Okay, thank you!
So, basically my college wardrobe from the late 1970s .... LOL.
lol exactly!
Honestly the style
Is too âcostumeyâ. Instead, live the style. Enroll in a school, remove victorian and english aspects from this theme, and it will help a lot.
If you remove the victorian aspects of it itâs no longer Dark Academia. The whole point of the style is to be inspired by past times thatâs why it feels âcustomeyâ for todayâs informal standards. But you certainly donât need to go to school to achieve a fashion style. Have a great day.
It's a little sloppy dark academia. It has to be better fitting.
Okay, thank you
