I love your english, victorian, vintage countryside style of dressing and decorating!!! It suits you so well! I agree on buying quality fabrics in timeless styles. You don't have to worry about fabric wearing down or holes in seams. A quality handbag should last years if made properly. Designer labels have outsourced and their products and don't last one bit! Real fabrics...cotton, wool, leather, suede and canvas last forever with good care. You're just a doll!!! Thanks for the video ❤

Congratulations on your choice to support locally owned and made. I believe a number of designers here in Australia are sourcing ethically based businesses. I think the best we can do is try to source responsible products and to wear each piece for a long time and to remember that clothing affects lives, those that make it and wear it. ❤ loved seeing your favourite brands and clothing, you wear it all with such style.😊

And the importance of designer bags and belts, what in the world? Contentment and happiness in who you are and not what you wear is becoming a thing of the past. Thanks so much for speaking out about this ongoing craziness

I am a brazilian living in germany and honestly, I've never seen any cloth made in Germany, whereas in Brazil I find it all the time and they are good quality and not always produced by children or starving people. When I buy clothes in Germany I get second-hand items, as it is better for the environment. When I am in Brazil I only buy clothes made by brazilians, so I can support their works and not these people working in poor conditions in terrible factories. Your style is lovely btw! 😙

@KirstenJoerg

Yes, that's true, Germany is known for 'Made in Germany' when it comes to cars or machines but less in fashion, I'm sure there are some very small labels though but definitely needs some digging. Second-hand is wonderful, I wanted to be more conscious about the environment as well and I never look back. Thanks so much Helena.

Luckily I'm in Scotland, and the tweed and the real hand knitted goods here are very affordable in Vintage and second hand shops. I'm leaving behind my punky style towards the calm, quality Scottish tweeds and wool. Living in Edinburgh, it is a privilege, and a good place for it, many people actually wearing those clothes on every day, which for some people, especially from other countries might be fun outfit, but here the weather condition is perfect for tweeds :)

I just love you and your husband your whole package (everything that you are) is refreshing to me

It’s really interesting how fashion trends repeat. In the 60s, 70s and even the 80s we used to have few changes of clothes but the clothes were of great quality, very stylish, and often hand made by ourselves. I’m waiting to see if sewing will re- emerge as a craft that young people are interested in taking up. It’s a guaranteed way to ensure that what you wear won’t be seen on anyone else!

I'm originally from India and just know off hand that so many American and European designersused to get their clothing lines made in Indian factorie. Back in the 90s many factories employed children. So I agree that it's important to have awareness. Sadly, corporate slavery does exist. When i go to india, I love buying fabric and go to the local tailor to get my dress made. It's a treat and satisfying i feel I'm helping local economy.

This was great to hear someone who has put a lot of thought into what they wear. I love your style. I’m going to be on the lookout for brogues. Also I am getting back into sewing my own clothes and making conscious decisions about choosing things that will mix and match.

I love your style! I too enjoy wearing English country-style clothing. I've tried so many other styles, but they're just not me. I struggled to find clothes that I like in High Street shops (and brands), so I've gone back to sewing my own clothes in the country style; pieces that will fit me well and will last for years. I will check out some of the brands you mentioned. Last month I visited the House of Bruar in Blair Atholl, while on holiday; I found a lovely long cardigan for myself and a nice paperboy hat for my husband. I don't know if you've been, but it is certainly a place to check out. Not only for clothes but for food, home decorations and soft furnishings too. And...there's a massive sale shop at the back of the complex; lots of lovely bargains from past seasons. We had a lovely time. Thanks for pointing out the brands to us, country style lovers 🥰

I love your style, Kirsten! It's very classy and matches your persona. I enjoy your videos about the Cotswolds as i am hiking through the circle through the villages in mid May!

Good to see this!! I love your outfits...I myself have never followed trends, I wear what I like not what is the next style! 👚👗 or what is in!! I do love brogue though I have quite a few pairs in various colours 👍

In addition to the child labor aspect, buying vintage or new classic pieces that you keep for years is so much better for the environment. And buying natural fabrics that are breathable are much better for your skin. Your style is timeless and looks so well on you. Your “modern” red hairstyle and makeup keep it looking fresh. Perhaps you would consider a future vlog about your favorite style of jewelry. I am thinking classic pearls, hat pins and gold studs. 🥰

Kudos to you, Kirsten, on stepping away from fast fashion. We have been conditioned to constantly shop, shop, shop and it is such a waste of time and money!

I prefer things that are handmade, preferably from people who I have met. I do not throw away perfectly good things, just changing the way I get new ones. Less clutter in my home and my mind. This was a wonderful video as usual!

Your style is darling, and I admire the thoughtful way that you came to it. Buying local, vintage, or secondhand is also good for our environment. Buying local reduces the amount of energy used for getting the product to the consumer. Vintage and secondhand purchases reduce our wasteful consumerism and the amount that we throw away into landfills. Good to hear that vintage Laura Ashley is valued. I enjoyed this video so much!

Thank you and yes, exactly, one of the many reasons I made this change. Have a lovely day.

I am so glad to have found your YT channel, and now your old blog, too! I'm here in the States, and also a longtime Anglophile. I guessed your dress was vintage Laura Ashley! I could rarely indulge in Laura Ashley in the 1980's and early '90's (or so I thought -- looking back, I see that my parsimony toward myself was misguided and unnecessary), when I was young and slim. Oh, how I adored the L.A. styles, both clothing and interiors! I have a similar style to yours (I also include some mixed-print rayon Bohemian dresses and some solid shift-style dresses), and my latest indulgence is a few fit-and-flare Indian-made block-print cotton frocks bought from a local shop here. I'm 65, but I still love to twirl. I recently found cotton petticoats at a reasonable price on Amazon, so I am looking forward to popping one on under these dresses. Several years ago when I was still teaching primary grades and thinner than now, I bought quite a few things from Boden, which is British-based. In recent years, they have gotten away from their cotton and wool clothing (I especially loved their printed baby wale corduroy dresses), but I see that they appear to be bringing back more cottons. I have a couple of striped cotton knit dresses from them in the last several months, also twirl-worthy. I haven't worn my Oxford lace-ups in a while ... I must try them again. Sometimes I wear floral Dr Martens booties with my Boho floral dresses, for a California-girl look. (Or so I think.) Thank you so much for your presence on the internet, and for continuing to post! I really admire you and Joerg, and your honest, happy, upbeat videos! You are such a cute, fun couple, and obviously get along together so well and respectfully!

Oh yes, I can imagine, all the Laura Ashley I see from the 80s are just stunning.

Michelle... Perhaps you can find something that resembles your former L. Ashley style? Could be fun and give you a nostalgic feeling to wear such a garment again...

Ohhhh, I absolutely loved this video, Kirsten! I think your style is just fabulous, and your tips for thinking consciously about our clothing choices is so right on target. I have yet to give up "fast fashion," but you've really encouraged me to think about supporting local California-based designers and to be more careful about what I'm buying. I think this will also help develop my style which is basically just leggings and sweatshirts at the moment. Thank you for another truly engaging and charming video. You're amazing!!!

Thanks so much Carrie, makes me so happy! I still have some fast fashion items and try to get as much wear out of them as possible, just don't buy new things. At first I thought it would become a hard journey but it was super easy to be honest. Have a lovely weekend.

I'm from the US. I love Tom Baker's Doctor Who, which I got into as a small child. So, I grew up loving that vintage, eclectic look which I associate with Great Britain. You fit so well into that period of time that I so admire! Also, I'm trying to kick the habit of fast fashion, as well. I'm starting to shop vintage because its beautiful, as well as long-lasting. I thank the KZread gods that I found you!

That's just wonderful, thank you! Yes, I'm still wearing the things I own from Zara & Co. but it was so easy not to go there again, I really don't miss it. It's fun to look for lovely vintage pieces, such great quality too.

Welcome to the anti-fast fashion group! Just kidding, i don't think there's any such club, but i recently saw more and more people moving away from fast fashion, and this is great. :D Last year i don't remember ever stepping in any FF store, until around Christmas, and now a bit after because of the sales. I didn't buy much as i also didn't like much stuff either. I wanted to tell you that when you see something you really like, and think you'll wear it, get it even if it's FF. Just try not to do it too often and don't be too hard on yourself. ;p

@@sapphirecamui6447 That's too kind, thank you! Well, I made it my personal mission not to step into Zara & Co. again to be honest and I don't miss it. I just don't want to support it any longer and so far it really works amazingly well. I don't even check what they have hahah.

@@KirstenJoerg You're not missing out on anything. unless you know, you want to wear cheap and ugly plastic, shaped like fabric XD

💋Love your style and I simply adore your channel. My style is all over the place because I love to dress based on how I am feeling. Fashion is supposed to be fun and it is totally subjective. I am an artist so I see from that perspective I guess you could say. Great video and fantastic pieces. Continued blessings. ~Love and Light 💖Carli

Thanks so much Carli! Nothing wrong with dressing the way you feel, I think that's absolutely fantastic.

I love you videos and all of the countryside you show us.. I think you both are kind loving people that make me smile when we watch you. You actually genuinely care for one another

Having recently discovered you, I’m deriving the greatest pleasure catching up on your videos. Living in Australia & hankering to revisit the UK, your wonderful videos are providing great pleasure to me. I truly feel as if I’m exploring the gorgeous villages too. Loving history, antiques, decorating, literature & fashion I feel incredibly blessed to have found you. Kirsten, your gentle manner & soft voice are delightful. Your fashion style suits you perfectly & I greatly appreciate your sentiments. Thank you for the absolute joy you’re giving me here in Australia, so far from a part of the world I love & miss 💐🙏💞
