I’m so happy you liked it!! and I also love finding some gems in charity/vintage shops. they add a real spice in a classic wardrobe😊

I love good leather footwear, too. Sneakers are great for comfort around the house, etc., but I want leather footwear with low to mid-heels for going out. They add so much to an outfit. I’m always impressed when men wear good leather shoes instead of sneakers, too.

yeeey!! happy to see that you like the idea. working on it😊

I’m one of those who loves fine, lightweight, non-bulky, and above all, short, knits. I’m on the small side and my figure nearly vanishes in those oversized bulky sweaters. Plus, they might be too hot. I bought a few “better” (thicker) cashmere sweaters this autumn and am a bit worried that I will overheat in them. I love a cropped sweater, which on me covers my waistband and sometimes extends down to my hipbones, I think they’re much more flattering than those tunic-length ones. I’m also sizing down a size or two, knits seem to just be getting bigger, along with other clothes, because of the oversized trend. I love your channel❤

Dear Kimberly, I agree with you regarding the shorter lightweight knits. I used to like them more when I was younger (and still do sometimes, but more with skirts than trousers), but now I’m drawn to lighter and shorter pieces. I just got a beautiful cashmere slim fit jumper (thrifted) that I’m showing in my new video and I looooove it🥰

I absolutely love all the color combinations and the styling of the outfits, really inspiring video 😍

Bravo Mariola! Your new mic sounds amazing and thanks for the shout out lol. Your styling is once again spot on. It's great that you mention shopping in charity shops. I'm not a fan of influencers that are always doing "haul" videos. I think some people have a negative feeling about thrifting/charity shopping but I've found it to be a great way to acquire quality clothing and accessories for a fraction of the cost. Plus, we're saving the planet at the same time. A win-win. I call it treasure hunting. We need to normalize second hand shopping.

Oh on time, thank you ❤ I created that first outfit (linen white pants with gray knit sweater) two weeks ago, but on the same day I watched a video for one of my very favorite trusted fashion stylist said that kinda mess,because linen is very much summery fabric!, but I really not see any wrong with that, it was very chic and not off at all, especially mine is fully lined so I feel it’s more wearable in the colder months than the see through one, also I used my burgundy accessories (my backpack and belt) with them they elevated the look so much, always helpful beautiful ❤️

Hi Christina!! thank you so much for your lovely comment. May I ask after watching that video of your favourite stylist, did you stop wearing linen? I think how and when you style your clothes is very personal. Some people wear linen all year round as it’s very soft and warm on your skin. I think you should wear what makes you happy and the best version of yourself. I also love linen trousers clashing with some heavy material like wool or cashmere 🥰🥰

I already worn it two times 😄absolutely agree 100% with you, I don’t mind to educate myself with the fashion big lines but never never leave myself to everything I watch or listen to, I always go with my feelings and sense, yes it’s first time for me to wear linen pants in fall but always wear my linen white shirt under my cable knit or cashmere sweater in winter❤️

same here. I tend to wear them a lot and then when I get tired put them on a side for a season or two, but I’ll always have a pleated skirt in my wardrobe. Recently I’m loving the TIBI midi skirt, but the price tag means that it will stay on my wish list for a long time😜

This year I finally found some beautiful leather loafers that don't give my problem feet any issues so I bought them in black and brown. A big win for me there. Another great find was a wool and cashmere coat from Theory. It's unlined so not for really cold weather but it's so stylish and because it was available in petite it fits me perfectly. I can't wait to wear it.

I looove the video! I have a similar black pleated skirt that I wear a lot all year, so I can't wait for your next video! I love the color palette and styling. I have two pairs of loafers from massimo dutti, camel and black but I don't reach for them too often. They are comfy but I always reach instead for my doc martens oxford shoes, pointy ballet flats, pointy boots or converse. Would be great a video about styling loafers because I find them unflattering, maybe because I am quite short.

They look amazing, but often the pretty ones are not comfortable. I feel more confident now👍😊

thank you Mariola! love your videos - I am really looking forward to the skirts video, since I was thinking to get a pleated skirt for winter but then I am not sure if to wear ti with chunky sweater over it, tuck it in or jacket over it? wouldnt it make my proportions strange as like make legs short? or that i would drown in a skirt and oversized blazer?

thank you so much for your interesting comment. My midi skirt video shall be live very soon🤞🏼😊 so I don’t want to go into details, but hopefully it will give you lots of ideas to style your skirt (both oversized and more figure hugging). As to the suit or trousers and blazer situation, the way I do it is to add some casual and feminine elements, because you already have 2 tailored pieces (I’m talking about wide leg trousers and oversized blazer). I would wear my sneakers/converse and a very simple white/black t-shirt or a cashmere jumper. Maybe add some pearls, hoop earrings, a crossbody bag and a tote bag (to add something casual). Also if it’s not too cold adding your jumper over your shoulders makes everything more modern and daily. I hope it helps😊

Love the style of Massimo Dutti shoes but I think the quality doesn’t worth the price, I’ve purchased a pair of boots last year, had to order/return 3 pairs to have a flawless one( glue, scratch on leather, painful bump on the inside sole) finally after one week of wearing my “perfect pair” they started to make a weird cheap plastic noise when I was walking… I gave up and sold them. For affordable leather shoes my favorite brand is Kazar, some of their styles are too “party girl style” for me but they also have minimalist and classic pieces in a very good quality (and at a very affordable price during sales).

@SlowDownInStyle

hmmmm these are certainly very important factors. I was worried about the quality vs price in such shops. Thank you so much and I will keep that in mind. Re Kazar, I did find a very nice pair (or 6😜) on their website, but i’ve never had any shoes from that brand so I really appreciate your advise.
