    My mistake is impulsively buying and not trying different ways to wear what I already have.

    • @EllenaHue
      @EllenaHue  Před měsícem +23

      Promise yourself that before heading to the store, you'll spend an extra 10 minutes exploring your wardrobe to create a new outfit! Believe me, there's more pleasure in discovering a new combination from your old clothes than in buying something new!

    • @ginamills5597

      Yeah me too. Or buying a “statement” piece, something a lil different, not my usual dull style. Seeing it in store, loving it but then getting home & having no clue how to style it with what I already have in my closet.

Clothes get saggy if they’re sat around in so I’ll always change the minute I get home. Also if I’m just at home maybe cooking, cleaning I’ll wear old clothes that don’t matter

  • @DrivingFree
    @DrivingFree Před měsícem +14

    My fashion mistake is simply not knowing my style direction. I have a hodgepodge of variety of outfits that I wear okay, but no signature style that I can identify. I accessed my wardrobe and discovered that I have a lot of black, white and some red, a few orange pieces and prints. So thanks to you and Gemma, I decided to start with my black/white, adding nude pieces that I can coordinate a working capsule wardrobe. I do have some accessories that I can use as pops of color for now, but have a lot of learning in the color department. I will say that I’m happy in the direction I’m going and now that my eyes are opened, I’m beginning to look at my wardrobe in a whole new exciting way, putting together combinations that i never thought of to szhush up my wardrobe

    My mistake number one is that I buy a new piece and am happy if I can make two outfits out of it. Turns out I only wear one outfit so cost per wear is high.
    The second mistake is buying for the fantasy self… oh so many pieces just hanging in there waiting for this fantasy to become reality which it never does.

I also photograph my creations so that I don't forget why I bought them in the first place! Yessah, I'm just a tad 🤪 crazy! And, my closet is way too small!

  • @flower-ss2jt
    @flower-ss2jt Před měsícem +7

    My mistake is keeping some clothes too long, if they get worn I mend them and that is fine - but it is when the colour fades and looks washed out they look bad. So I need to dye them.
    That is why I never buy patterned clothes - you cannot dye them to put back some colour.

  • @joanneolorenshaw1992
    @joanneolorenshaw1992 Před měsícem +6

    My fashion mistakes are plenty. One was not knowing who I was and trying to find it through too much shopping. Another was poor fabric purchases. I now try to stay away from polyester - especially the scratchy kind. I would buy an item because the colour was great. Fit great. But. Fabric. Not great. Then find myself never wearing it. I also pay attention to the actual colour. Does it make me look alive or wash me out. Basically. I have learned to become much pickier in where I spend my fashion money and I am doing better for it. Thank you for all your posts. So helpful as I continue to grow and learn.

      I used to do that to myself and I still do from time to time.
      I encourage you to wear just one of those cute clothes. That's how I did It. I started to take more care of myself one step a time: a cute skirt one day, a new pair of shoes the Next, the skirt and the shows later...
      It was easier for me than a whole change. I didn't want a big movie reveal and a lote of comments about my appareance, even well-meaning ones. (Do I make sense?)
      I'm still walking this path and sometimes I revert to shapeless plain clothes
      For me it is not about the clothes, but about loving myself and don't feel so inadecquate.
      I'm still an introvert and also I still dress quite simple, but in prettier clothes and more self-assurance

    Well, I'm one big fashion mistake, that's why I'm here to learn from you 😉 But one funny fashion mistake I made years ago was when I was about 7 mos pregnant. I had a sexy, fitted python print tank dress (non-maternity.) I was attempting to dress for dinner out. When I looked in my full-length mirror, I was horrified to realize that I looked like a giant snake that had swallowed its prey whole! A snake should be sleek, not have a giant round belly! Thankfully, I noticed my mistake before going out and changed into something else. Otherwise, I'd say inappropriate footwear is something I notice often -- it's very cool and rainy where I live, and it's important to have water-resistant shoes and boots with traction soles here. Open-toe, slick soled shoes are a mistake in our rainy climate - save them for dry summer days.

    I tend to buy too many basics, and then not be able to make outfits! Sometimes the pieces I buy are great, but I may not have the right top or bottom to go with. It’s like hoarding!😅. I also have gotten such dark pieces, and when spring rolls around… too dark! I’m getting better, and I appreciate all your tips and tricks for fashion! I’m going to follow on Instagram for more! Thank you! ❤

    I love your content!! Such a fresh air, I am sick of neutral outfits. I am desperately trying to add colour and an interesting touch to my outfits. I binged watched all your videos during the night, could not stop, I got so excited! 😂
    Recently I got colour analysis done and my biggest challenge is to also keep in mind in terms of colours to add those colours closer to my face. I feel it limits my possibilities. Would you do videos also how you would play with specific colour combinations for the different colour types? I love the complementary colour approach but that leads to using colours which are not in my colour palette.
    Thanks and please never stop making videos! 🥰 Greetings from Hungary!

    My style mistake is that I have bought too many black items because I don’t know how to mix and match. And I’m blond and light skin, so it looks very harsh against my complexion. I also never know how to style my long hair so that it looks good, but don’t want to cut it off. I walk or use my bike to work, so I always have to wear shoes that are, well, not very fashionable. Trying to find simple ways to change it up a notch to make it look better. I have a lot to learn.

    My biggest mistake is probably not taking time to style things just taking trousers or a skirt out of the wardrobe and a top ready to go without spending the time to style them so that later in the day or especially when I meet someone who has styled their clothes I feel dowdy and scruffy even thought there is nothing wrong with either outfit per se I think I need to set some time aside to make outfits

They look great on, but will see if some pop of colour in a scarf and/or bag will uplift; secondly, I fractured my foot a month ago so am in a "fracture boot" & crutch for another few weeks. This forces me to look at new ways to dress my upper half over inevitable dark bottoms. I have discovered a few little tricks!

    My common style mistake was finding a silhouette I like, say for example, a dress and it’s only available in colors that do not flatter me. I give in and buy it in the best of the bad colors and end up not wearing it. I have finally stopped doing this.😂

    Thank you Ellena for this video. Ik needed a little puch to explore my wardrobe further. You'r video's already helped me to understand what i was missing when it came to basics to create more outfit idea's instead of constantly shopping. I also found my new personal style while a was evolving the past 6 months and i understand my style much better. How ever i use the word mistake with caution, because style is personal and beautiful in every way, so what coun's for a another as a mistake does not have to be for the person that wears the outfit.

    Thank you, Elena, inspiring as always 😎
    My challenge: I love colors very much. I see something colorful and I just buy it. By time I get home, I realize, I have bought something beautiful but it is a stand-alone. The second challenge: sometimes I have the idea I should become a bit more neutral (soft colored) - big mistake. I might wear once maybe twice and then will give it away.
    I found out, I am able to have neutrals as long as they have high contrast. Colorful can be elegant for me if I do not use multicolored patterns.
    Then I made up my mind which 2 strong colors should be my preferred colors. I still have pieces of all colors and these I am able to blend with neutrals.
    I went new season shopping and for the first time I came home with a special white blouse and a black elegant sleeveless blouse. They match exceptionally well with the “old” clothes.
