I love the non complaining about weather and morning chicken 🐓meditations. It’s such a more present, positive attitude.
Lydia I actually been preferring the chicken and garden parts of your vlogs, over the dressing up and going out, is just so peaceful, especially when you live in an apartment in a big city like me.
I don’t think you should apologize for showing us the chickens at the start of the Vlog. This is your channel and your life you are choosing to share. I like seeing it! 😊😊😊

I’m so pleased to hear you being your own cheerleader Lydia. It seems you’ve recognised your own strengths and talent and creativity and don’t feel embarrassed in showing and talking about it . All the outfits were lovely in their own right but, for me, you looked amazing in the slinky knitted dress with the short little cardigan. Your waist should be on show FAR more often!
"Witness the fitness" 😂 I honestly love how you have evolved you have taken everything in stride all the negativity the trolls everything and you have come out an even better persona for it. Every era of yours is a beautiful one but this might be my favorite keep doing you, you're awesome! 😊

Beautifully said 👏👏👏🌸
The hens gathering around the water cooler to gossip about Beatrix because she’s busy in the coop… such a charming description!!🐓🐓 It could be a children’s book complete with beautiful illustrations of your lovely girls.. Fun!!
The black fedora and the black cape and the black trench coat is a badass look 🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I love the chicken, Lumi, Porter & Barkley content. It’s my favorite as well as the gardening, Ali’s beekeeping, cooking & baking, pub crawls with Carrie, horse riding 🏇 all things of you living your best life and being completely authentically yourself. I love clothes and fashion too! 🤍🍁
I prefer this type of video. I started to learn and improve my English. Love to hear her talk. Feel like a friend talking to me about her day. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
OMG, that Cape and leather trouser set!!!!! Love it!!!! Also loved the navy cropped slacks…with the buttons!! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 The Cape though !!!!!!!! Every outfit was beautiful
Thank you for taking us along for such a pleasant afternoon. After many years of work, work, and more work.... your channel reminds me to slow down and smell the roses, and sip some really good Earl Gray tea! :)
One of my favorite “hauls” of yours. I actually loved the cape, leather pant look and well as the big bow and purple skirt. The vibrant color kept it from looking old-fashioned. You look stunning in hats! I love the high tea concept. I’ve only done it twice, which might be a lot as an American. Hehe! Great vlog!
One of my favourite hauls 😍 the clothing was so unique for me! A moment for the cape, please!🙌🏼😫 and the black fitted DRESS… just stunning! A girl can dream, I’m manifesting these pieces, they are just show stoppers 😍
Love the LK Bennett pieces Lydia, especially the cape and the fitted black dress. Everything looks so lovely on you, of course. ❤
I love all your videos! I am in my 20s and your clothing style has always been an inspiration. Thank you for sharing and inspire many people. 🤎
I enjoyed the vlog❤ Starting with the chickens was so delightful and I was happy to see and hear Lumi. Your visit to Highgrove was wonderful. I would love to go there. I also appreciate the beautiful outfit ideas. It's a good idea to really plan outfit ideas ahead to enjoy the creative process. Thankyou Lydia
LOVED the beginning with the chickens 😍 they’re beautiful!
the black dress, cardigan, hat and bag was the biggest serve. you look incredible!
Lydia it's DEFINITELY an act of war asking if cream or jam comes first😆 but also I love seeing the chickens first! And their little personalities!
Hello Lydia, Some food for thought - as a point of reference “Country Life Vlog” on KZread is based in Azerbaijan, not a word is spoken, but it captures stunning footage of the country life style. It has in excess of 5 million subscribers. To me it says people want to see a balance of the quieter life and from reading some of your viewers comments it welcomes the Gorden-Millen menagerie when it is incorporated as part of your natural lifestyle. I’ve been watching for years and I am so proud of you! Keep up the good work. Enjoy life dearest.

Beautiful comment 🌸
Thank you!!! First, I love your day outs with Carrie. The chats are entertaining! I have rewatched the afternoon tea and Highbury shop tour three times. It’s on my wish list to visit. It would have been hard to leave the wicker pieces behind. Definitely recommend having a special teacup for tea - a must. A fabulous vlog with your gorgeous style and authenticity xxx
Cards are beautiful and I think a lovely way to remind ourselves that beauty can be found in the smallest of ways..peaceful greenhouse with a lovely lot of courgettes!
Love the chickens! Thank you for sharing that part of your life with us!❤❤❤
Wonderful video Lydia, ooh you got to go to Highgrove, that's fab. It must have been a great experience for you and Carrie. Loving all your purchases.
I got so excited when u added the hairband with the coat and Louis Vuitton bag? Such a perfect touch 👌🏽❤
Dressing Gown and wellies is a normal chicken check outfit for me!!! In summer its a floaty white dress with no shoes (living out my Jane Austen romantic ideals). That tea set was gorgeous and I need it in my life. Maybe I will visit the UK again!!!!! Thank you for a lovely video.
thank you Lydii for this video!
100% - tea in proper bone China cups! Only way to drink tea! It does make it taste different ❤
Lydia’s tushy! Yassss! Love that dress on you! Be proud of what your mama gave you! 🔥🔥🔥
I have vivid memories of having tea at my grandmother's house. We would sit at the table next to the oil stove drinking Red Rose tea out of a china cup. I truly cherished those times with her. 🩷
LOVEEEE the outfit haul from LK bennet please keep doing this. Absolutely died when you said witness the fitness hahah love love
Such cute outfits today! Love the green skirt one.💚
omg purple skirt is stunning loved this video smashed it again Lydia❤❤❤❤
As a lover of black clothes... WOW.... Loved!!! I actually loved the purple and green skirts too, especially on you. Loving the mix of outdoor, indoor, friendships, clothes etc etc
Sorry, Carrie, Lydia wins this one. Cream first jam second....way less messy. ❤❤

Lydia Lydia! What a lovely vlog . Thank you for sharing this with us. A proper tea cup is such a nice thing to get for yourself it really elevates the tea experience. Also I often buy cards when I see pretty ones I frame them or just prop them up on the dressing table. A nice reminder of a trip or a day out with a friend❤️
I’m on team Lydia, cream first, jam second. If the cream melts then it makes dish even better.
Lydia, I love all of your outfits. Lumi is trying to tell you that she likes your outfits 😊😊😊
Wrap dress and pearl neckpiece is absolutely stunning on you. You really can pull-off timeless elegance without looking dated or older than your years.
Lydia love your every single outfit ! Absolutely stunning! ❤
Well I have to congratulate you in giving us a beautiful all round lifestyle of perfect choices for ……😮 just about everything really. I so enjoy your home choices, classic outfit pieces whether traditional or traditional with a modern twist and the LKB necklace is so perfect with the dress, your attitude has changed, you now know what you like. I’m 63 and just admire it all so much and your chickens…..they are so fabulous, the names perfect. Just don’t stop giving me wonderful content Lydia ❤❤❤❤
another great vlog lydia
I really enjoyed this video as I visited Highgrove last year and enjoyed tea there too. As an American I'm a cream first then jam because when I make scones they're warm and the cream will melt and then top it off with jam. I can get Devon cream where I live. I loved the china that the then Prince of Wales used and bought as much as I knew my suitcase would accommodate. Great video, thank you.
This is by far my favourite video of yours that I’ve watched, you made me laugh. I just love how real and relaxed you are.definitely need a proper tea cup I have my Nanas bone china cups and it does make a difference. Can I just say “Witness the fitness” pure gold 😂 also don’t we all have hairy toes? Anyways love this video❤ thanks for being yourself you’re lovely.. oh yes and also jam on top!
I love all of the outfits ❤Do you that’s why we watch you.North Carolina would love to be a stop on your book tour when its time.
Carrie makes perfect sense with how she does her scones. The jam spreads easily on the scone first, then you add a dollop of cream 😋🫶🏻

That funeral outfit is what I'd wear every second day 😂 I don't think how you've named it will change my mind. I love 🖤
I need those oatmeal/light gray boots! I’ve been searching for a classic pair of knee-high boots in that color. They’re gorgeous Lydia. Also I love the way u’r styling your hair, it suits you💖☺️
Love the LK Bennett necklace !! Reminds me of Princess Kate’s pearl/diamond choker she often wears 😊
Love seeing your chickens! And, really love hearing them! Fabulous creatures living in their five star hotel.
I adore your chickens; their cooing is so soothing, and how you interact with them is lovely. I have mentioned this before: I've watched all your vlogs since just before "lockdown" and witnessed your journey. You exude this new calmness; I adore your unique life approach and appreciation and respect for the seasons. This may sound crazy, but your look has changed as well. I don't just mean your exquisite style but your face and mannerisms; you exude happiness and radiance from wisdom and self-discovery.

Same here. I’ve been wanting to let her know I see her journey. It shows growth and self reflection. She’ll never be able to please everyone who follows her, but that’s just life. Lydia, if you read this, keep doing nice things for yourself. It’s not selfish, it’s self care (and yes, do something for others as well). I can’t afford most of the things you wear and promote, but I still enjoy watching how lovely things look on you and it inspires me to think of new ways to dress within my own budget.
Your chickens are very beautiful 🐓🐓🐓 Congratulations, I love that you’re doing this 🕊❤️🐓🥂
As someone Cornish born and bred, it’s definitely jam with cream dolloped on top! Well done Carrie haha
Love to see you working with the chickens Lydia And I like all the sessions too .. would of liked it more colder for Christmas a frosty morning walk is nice.. thank you for sharing Lydia ❤
Watching from Australia 🇦🇺 🎉loving your content the direction your overall brand is heading. Companion planting definitely helps manage pests in the garden. Love to see you dry some lavender and make pot pouri bags with it. Hmm lavender is apparently trending as a colour on Christmas trees this year . You could also use herbs for tea and bath soaks.
Really enjoying your at home vlogs 💖
I love the suede boots - so classy ❤
such a lovely afternoon tea. thank you for the vlog Lydia and Carrie ❤
Loved the black cape outfit - wow ❤
I adore everything about this video thank you so much for sharing all my favourite things. May I ask if anyone knows the polish Lydia uses for her manicure as its beautiful
I have a set of tea cups that are from England my mother-in-law ancestors in from England. There is also a big manner that her family at one time owned so she was always into high tea and taught me a lot about it and when you mentioned that I thought I am getting my tea cup out and I’m using it I live in America. I love listening to you. My dream is to come to England someday, I have a letter that my mother-in-law wrote to the queen and they wrote back to her and I have it framed in my den. I’m even trying to learn more about plants so my garden, even though they’re small will look better so again I love your videos.❤️
The black dress and cardigan! chefs kiss
I love the styling vlogs 🥰
The clothes are all exquisite and you wear them beautifully!
I love all your fall outfits. ❤ I love that you’re adding a bit of an edge with the leather, hats and boots to the softness of each beautiful outfit. It’s gives off feminine and cool. 😎 You get me into trouble every year Lydia! 😆😁😍🤩 I live in California but I’m that weirdo with the cool way too heavy coats! 😁😆🤣
LOVE the PURPLE!!!
I don’t think you’re older, I think you’ve grown into another kind of life from a lot of other people in your industry 😊 Also, look at Wedgwood’s tea cups! They have a Peter Rabbit set that’s lovely as well as an all white version of their Wild Strawberry set. 🫖🌿
Me too - love all that crockery. I’ll have to check online too.
The perfect day!! Minus the crazy rain
I agree I love a blustery autumn day ❤
We need a reaction from Ali for the black fitted dress 😍 you look gorgeous!
That bright purple skirt would look amazing with a simple plum cashmere sweater, with black accessories, or maybe that dark red Hermes bag 💜
You look sensational in black! The black coat and boots are gorgeous!
"The worst" hair bun is actually very nice. Having the sides combed lower than usual suits you. Looks more Italian to me, I have no idea why. Probably some memory from a movie 😊
I am Portuguese and the shock of finding Bordalo pieces in your videos was just too much! 😅 Those are lovely pieces but you should visit the Bordalo factory if you want to get absolutely blown away!
I’m with Carrie on the scone layering, definitely jam then the cream
If you haven’t smelled the “Juliet” David Austin rose, you really should 💕🌹 my mother has had one for years, it’s a beautiful blush peach color and the FRAGRANCE is to die for ❤ you can smell it from across the yard!
Omg Lydia that purple skirt outfit ugh sooooo beautiful ❤
Loving the hair Lydia ❤
how can someone be so beautiful as Lydia? the chicken chatting all the way to the little gifts and thoughts at the end, love it all.
I adore the purple and green skirts! I love colour and always gravitate towards it. They look amazing on you! I always wear tailored,well fitting clothes too. I work from home as a classical musician/published composer and I love feeling put together! Thank you for always making the best videos xx
as a cornish lady i can tell you i've always done jam and then cream!! It just makes sense to be because jam is a spead and cream is a topping so reversing the order is odd to me but i won't hold it against you 😂😊
@nataliekeane8944

Yes!!! Spread the jam all over the scone and a dollop of cream on the top. The jam is too heavy for the cream the other way ariund and who wants a big lump of jam as a dollop...and I'm an Australian 😂. I think how we do things is a direct result of our convict ancestry and where they came from. 🤔☺️

Hello Lydia from Newcastle Australia. Really enjoyed this vlog. Everything you tried on looked fabulous.
I think it’s sweet that you but yourself cards, I might start this 💗
Oh yes- china mug for loose earl grey tea and Emma Bridgewater mugs for coffee! Lol Thank you for a lovely vlog. Thank you for showing us Highgrove ( still think of Diana there with her boys in the garden) x
I know the rose. It is discontinued however you can get it from some other garden centres if you shop around.
Great vlog loved it . The black dress with the cardi was stunning and the purple skirt and white shirt was so beautiful. Love LKB I have a beautiful silk sling back shoes which I simply love 😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lydia I personally enjoy drinking tea in a pretty tea cup than in a regular coffee mug. Love watching your videos...a fan from Ontario, Canada 💌 🇨🇦
Love the outfits Lydia! The color back is such a vibe!!!
Stunning crockery at Highgrove… quite fancy going there!
Bodycon black would look amazing as a technical "shell layer" under a belted coat-dress.
LK Bennet started as a shoe store in Wimbledon village. Always had fabulous items.
Love the colour of the paint in the toilet at Highgrove! Looks like Farrow & Ball…

Nice to see Lumi❤❤
Yes, absolutely! A lovely, large, thin porcelain cup/mug for tea
Loved the purple skirt. The chicks 🐥 are a no brained ❤ pups and wildlife are always the best. Very nice day.
