So, I wanted to thank you, Alyssa! In January I found your channel as I was starting a journey to get healthier and more stylish. Always considered myself cute, but at 55, and the head of a business, I needed to pay a bit more attention, which is something I never really did with fashion. I watched your videos as I was on the treadmill -- first 2x a week, then 3, 4, 5, now up to 6 days a week. It really helped the time pass so pleasantly! And every month, I went through my closet, using your tips -- eliminating items, adding a few (mostly thrifted), changing up my game. Now 45 pounds down and with a closet full of clothes I love, with endless combinations I learned from you, it's a whole new world for me and fashion. And you gave me some joy during COVID! Merci beaucoup! Wishing you and yours all the best.

Well done and congratulations!! That’s no small feat.

At 65 I’ve become very interested in style. Better late than never. I find your videos to be interesting and informative. In this video you have completely changed personalities with the four ways of styling that shirt. I could picture you in specific venues in each look. I’ve never seen a shirt closed on the diagonal. Very pretty.

I just turned 60 and I'm also a fan. I'm not ready to dress like a granny, but I don't want to dress like my 19 year old nieces so I look for styling choices that "meet in the middle." I have five thrifted white button downs that are my wardrobe 'go-'tos.' Great styling ideas, Alyssa.

Would love to see more in this series! Possible ideas: black turtleneck, plain colored long sleeved tee, black trousers, cardigans (long and short), silk camisole, knee high heeled boots.

I watched the video with you and your Mom. I loved it and would like to see more like that. I am 62 and love seeing the mix of styling for young and mature with the same garment. Love all your videos.

Your enthusiasm is infectious and never fails to keep me focused on slow fashion. I am retired now so don't have a lot of money to spend on clothes anyway, so shopping my closet for my daily casual outfits is such an inspiration. On the odd occasion I do need to buy something I need I can afford to buy better quality. Win win. So happy Alyssa and thank you as always. xx

Love your videos. I find that all younger fashion influencers call this shirt a button down. I’m from a different generation, but to me this is a button up shirt and a button down shirt actually has buttons that hold your collar down.

I agree Michelle I'm 65 and it's become a focus for me also. I have a white buttoned down shirt sitting in my closet that I'm going to take out and practice styling with. I love your videos and especially since you are Canadian.

That large, shiny, gold chain necklace looks like one I used to wear in the '90s. It was by Anne Klein and I loved it. Donated it to Goodwill. Everything comes back in style but you need a lot of storage space!

I have a good closet section of shirts and majority are white. So crisp and clean. Obviously my favorite piece of clothing. Your ideas for versatility are great to break up my standard wear. Thanks!!!!

Besides being a great video with that powerful white shirt which u look so sharp in, I really appreciate the fact that u read our comments and paid attention to them. I noticed u paused a bit longer for each outlook for us to see and digest (after all, it’s a slow lazy Sunday), also in look 2, u turned and let us see how u tucked your shirt in the back, so we can try the same. That was very kind and thoughtful of u.

This would be a great series. You can talk about blazers (the styles which work best for different body types), pencil skirts, shorts, trouser styles, cuts of jeans--even scale of accessories which work best for different body types.

I love the look of a white button down, but I never seem to reach for one of mine. This gave me some great ideas. I especially like the preppy look because it is relaxed and easy to wear. Never thought about adding a statement necklace, such a great tip! I'd love to see more videos like this. Maybe the series could be called "Styling your Basics" and you could do jeans, black blazers, LBD's and t-shirts. Thanks for this Alyssa!

To wrap it and tuck it, is a good idea! I will try it out. Thanks for the inspiration. ❤️

I am 3 years too late, but I’m so glad I found you channel! Please do more of these. ❤

Your upbeat attitude, terrific sense of style truly spans generations in our family. Thank you for making these totally awesome videos💕So insightful and informative. This shirt definitely has it all and your seemingly effortless beauty is so inspiring on how to best make our own closet’s sing!!!

I just scored not one, but 2! white button down shirts at the thrift store. They were both brand new! One is more dressing with a double collar from Coldwater Creek that was only $5! The other was a classic white button-down from Walmart but very well made. Got both shirts for $8. That made me so happy.

I would like to see black pants and scarves , jewelry layering

Great video, Alyssa! I love how you showed different sized bodies in the photos. I use all of the methods you described and I sometimes put a sleeveless knitted top or a dark printed t shirt over a white shirt to layer up when I’m wearing a fitted coat or jacket and want to stay warm and in the summer a vest underneath. A white button down is so versatile. It’s a must in any wardrobe.

Yes please continue with this series!

Yes for a regular series 🥰❗️

Great idea! Since cold temperatures are approaching ( for us on the northern hem) I suggest a turtleneck sweater in a neutral colour of your preference. Have a great week Alyssa, greetings from Italy.

Love this , thank you! Have always loved the white oxford shirt- was part of my school uniform and I am still attached but always feel I style it the same way all the time, under a sweater or cuff it and it always just falls short of fab, this is so helpful! THe preppy with the loafers is my favourite but this is helpful to step outside my comfort zone........

I have a somewhat split personality style…both preppy/classic and fairly boho. My closet and dresser drawers are a sight. I have almost 3 dozen white shirts, short sleeve tees and long sleeve tees…..then a lot of graphic/band tees. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

just rewatched this today and am reinspired. going on a trip to LA this weekend and discovered a shirt my hubby does not wear but that will go perfectly with my color palate i chose to use for the trip. packing light is essential and the button down shirt will add so many options for me.

Would like to see you style wide leg/ high waist jeans! Love your videos! 💕💕💕

Love this! If you do this as a series, I can tell you that black skirts are my closet essential, no matter what they're paired with. :)

Loved this video! Yay to this series! I will be watching this a few times!

Great tips and I struggle with a white shirt so this is a good one. I also love the diverse images of bodies and people you use to demo what you mean. Thank you.

Loved all the looks! The white shirt is one of my favorite peaces in my wardrobe. So elegant!!! 🤩🤩🤩

Love it!! Definitely more of this series!!

Love the wrap look and the tied-at-the-bottom look. Also the untucked under the sweater look. And that is a beautiful white shirt!

hmm great question - it could be the shirt and the material and how long it is ... i find when the hem is really long there is too much volume to work with. There is also a way to put the hems of each side through the button holes which makes it sleeker - check out Jessica Wang on IG and tiktok she has the BEST shirt and styling hacks which has little tricks! inlcuding that one!

Love the video, and the new series! I'm interested in seeing different ways to style cardigans, graphic tees, and long-sleeve shirts if you do more!

I am in my mid 60’s and have always been interested in fashion but we can always learn something new! I love how you have styled this beautiful but basic white shirt. I initially resisted the price of this shirt, but then found myself buying and re-buying various white shirts in the never ending quest to get the right one. I bit the bullet, and motivated by the generous discount code for this shirt, bought one myself. It just arrived and now I get it! It fits perfectly (I used their size guide), the material is superb, and it’s so finely crafted and tailored. I know I’ll enjoy wearing this for years. You have converted me Alyssa, thank you!

I loved this video. The series is also a great idea. I get tons of inspiration from your styles. Thanks!

Good morning Alyssa! I love that kind of shirts I have more than one in my closet and love them. Thank you for the looks, I love them all. Your coffee cup is lovely! See you next Sunday

Thank you so much for thinking about the plus size as well. You’re brilliant, and I really enjoy your channel. Thanks again 🥰
