Dearly Bethany's style course is quite literally one of the best investments I've made in/for myself in years. I loved loved loved it. I am forever changed, in the best way possible. I've never thought about my hero self before ... never given myself permission to dream and explore and reflect and claim my inner style and feel powerful. It sounds like a cliché, but you'll see. Since finishing the course, my clothing purchases are in line with my true style(s) and I no longer make purchase mistakes. I feel good about my style and I love having the new knowledge and confidence. You won't be Dearly Bethany ... you'll be you, on whatever path you're on. (I work from home. Doesn't matter.) I highly recommend the course. Take some time and believe in yourself all over again. Worth every penny. Don't rush through the segments though, take time to listen to the lesson and consider it from the perspective of your own life. Think about what made you feel joyful when you were a child, too. What a gift.

The reason I love neutrals is they make even inexpensive clothes look so sophisticated and elegant.

I would love a peek at that rack too! Even though my style is completely different, I totally gravitate toward a lot of the same pieces. I always see things I'm dying to find out about.

Your videos are the reason that I've started "investing" in clothes and shoes instead of bargain buying. I am now using more money on clothes and shoes, but I am also only buying things I know I'll wear and that will last me a long time, so I am also wasting less money on clothes and shoes that I end up not wearing much.

I love my neutrals ... I am a Navy, Silver Grey, White lady. I do however have two areas of colour .... A rainbow collection of cashmeres and fine knit merino (from cardigans to wraps) and a number of very good quality silk scarves (primarily Liberty or Chanel). On a dull damp day slipping that periwinkle blue silk scarf around the neck of my navy wool coat can really up the mood! Am on the list waiting for the next course and look forward as an early retired lady (I am 55) to finding my way in the casual instead of career world.

I feel this. I try to add color, but simply feel at home in neutrals and agree that it looks elegant and timeless.

The point you made on the contrast of your hair to your skin in a black and white photo is brilliant! I have not heard that point made before and it makes perfect sense. It makes selecting your neutral that much easier. I took your course so I already had the information on the skin undertone to know if you should have warm neutral or cool neutral, but this last point, pinpoints it even further. Thank you!

I can see how a neutral wardrobe is more cost effective. Even if you spend more on each article, everything is cohesive so you get more wear out of each piece, more possible combinations and all that taking less space. Also, in the past I didn't use to think so much about using texture to create interest in an outfit, and now I focus a lot on that and it's definitely a fool-proof way to look smart, I wish I had always known that! :)

I appreciate you giving us a glimpse of “deep into color” . You made it very clear.

I like neutrals as the basis for my wardrobe but as I’m getting older I’ve started to introduce a bit of colour as I’ve noticed people who wear some colour near their face look more fresh and young. I definitely can no longer wear black.

This was a free class of how to make your wardrobe work for you. Thank you so much!!!! My jewelry will shine! Love ❤️

Thank you so much for this! Neutrals are fantastic! I'm such a sucker for neutral patterns and monochromatic looks. I love color, but neutrals make the outfit so clean and streamlined. The only time I can see myself experiment with color is through my make-up looks. 🥰❤

yes, so true that neutrals streamline each outfit and the wardrobe as a whole!

Your pet made an eyecatching entrance,how cute😍😍😄 and can't ignore the birds chirping in the background so aesthetic

Looking at color season theory was a big help to me in understanding neutrals, because there are so many variations in the neutrals to consider. Gray isn't just gray; for example, there are shades of gray from very pale to charcoal, and from bluish gray to grays with a touch of yellow for warmth. Navy isn't just navy; there's bright navy, midnight navy, grayed navy, light navy. White can be bone, cream, snow, or ivory. Beige can be dark camel, light tan, khaki, or taupe, etc. Most people can wear most neutrals. It's just a matter of finding the right variation for them.

So much great insight here with neutrals. I know a lot of people think it's boring as well, but like you mentioned, when you eliminate the color and delve into cut, style and textures it really does make a difference. I love how my gold jewelry pops on the neutrals as well!

Because of you I’ve been on a mission to change my personal style and so far I’ve started with shoes. Already I’ve received many compliments on my shoes as well as had the opportunity to donate my older shoes to a worthy cause through the same shoe brand I’ve been buying from. I cannot wait for your course to open again. I’m so looking forward to it!

I adore and love my neutral wardrobe, i wear it every single day, thanks to you Bethany. This year i want to introduce red and green into my wardrobe as i think they would match all of my neutral tones 😍 love your style!

Hi Bethany. I love wearing black. My skin is light with a cool undertone and from the time I was a teenager I was always drawn to neutrals. Wearing that little black dress with the right accessories is never boring! Thanks for the informative video. 🌞

I have been learning a lot since I discovered your channel.... I am 48 and I realized that my style is kind of romantic and also now I buy my clothes looking for quality and something that I can mix match.....love your channel thank you 😊❣️

Thanks to your advice i've been changing my clothes paying attention to materials or fabric. It's been a slow but enjoing journey

You’re videos never fail to inspire me!! 🤩

Thank you for sharing how we can all help the environment by shopping more responsibly. We should all work to accumulate less stuff and love more quality pieces. Neutrals forever! 🥰

I can totally relate to everything you said. I love your style 😍 it's definitely not boring

It's your style with neutrals that drew me to your channel. You have helped us neutral lovers so much.

Always a gem to my day when you post a new video! 🤍

love the tip of black-and-white photo to reveal contrast. I've studied this but haven't seen this tool before. And the tip of texture is one I have found so useful. Christmas I wore an 'all white' outfit but with multiple tones/textures. Not boring at all.

I am a bright winter and I know I can pull off those bright colors but I wore only black for years. Started playing with the bright colors and now all I want is grey, white, black and even some dark cool browns lol I think it goes to say that the colors that you wear should align with your personality as well and my personality is very introverted but wild around people that I know which is how I feel about neutrals, like they are secure, dependable but you can still have some fun 😂 I enjoy what you said about handbags and jewelry which is so true. I alternatively am very high contrast but I’m very attracted to creams as well, but pairing with dark denim and textured shoes to create more contrast overall.

I loved this video and will watch it again! So full of great advice. Thank you 😊

I have a body type similar to yours.. Height and measurements. I have gained so much from looking at your videos. Not just style tips but confidence too. I seriously want to enroll in your masterclass next year. I'm already on the waiting list. Keep making such videos... They're too elegant.

I'm a fair-skinned person with a faint golden skintone; neutral make-up foundations match me best. Warm foundations are too yellow and cool foundations are too pink. So what shade of foundation do you wear?

There are some very saturated shades that look AMAZING on me. I don't think any of the trouble of putting wardrobe pieces together could make me give them up. But limiting my color palette and incorporating more neutrals has been a game changer. And when I wear neutrals, I try my best to stick with the warmer tones, which is something I learned only recently that's been very helpful.

I've been gravitating towards a more neutral wardrobe and it's been lovely

I'm already on the waitlist for your course and I'm super excited!

Thanks for the tip regarding contrasts. I experimented and turned a colored photo of mine into black and white and realized I have a high contrast between my skin and my hair. I now know why I looked bad in my mid-tone lavender coordinates even though I love the color. Lol! :D

I completely agree with all this. Even though I know 'less is more' I do think I find it hard to start with neutrals first. And then it depends on what neutral works best since not every neutral works for me. I'm finding now that my neutrals tend to be a bit more muted (after much process of elimination lol) but it's definitely been helping with my recent sewing projects as well as shopping!

I got given a promotion at work. I'm so glad I took Bethany's Masterclass so I know how to dress for the part but also for myself! Take the course if you already haven't people, its a lifesaver! Great video Bethany 🥰

Boring my ass lmao I struggled to begin with putting outfits together and not knowing what styles textures that go together, or if something it too casual up top/fancy on bottom or vice versa. .

Neutrals are never boring. I’m leaning towards more neutrals these days. It’s classic and I can style with minimal jewelry.

Yes! Definitely can be a struggle!

I used to like all the bright types of colors you know like red, yellow but as soon as I grew up I started to opt for more soothing colors and now I am 22 yr old but instead of choosing a trendy color, neutrals are becoming my choice cause they look subtle,peaceful,eye-soothing and it makes me look more older than i am😅which i like alot

I see trends and colors as the sprinkles to a sundae-fun to play around with, but definitely not necessary (for me at least). I’m like Bethany-I love seeing influencers in bright color blocked outfits, but it doesn’t suit my personal style, what I feel comfortable in, and what I’m trying to convey in the world. I’ve gotten to the point where I have a huge wardrobe of workhorse classics primarily in neutral colors (all of which I wear regularly) and I love these items dearly. There are a few investment pieces that I would still like to add, but overall my wardrobe feels very complete for most seasons. So now I feel like I “get to” experiment with a trend I’m interested in (if I see it having long-term viability) or a few new colorful pieces and combinations here and there. But it’s so much easier and more enjoyable for me to do so knowing I have the wardrobe built on foundational pieces already in place. Another thing I’ve noticed for myself recently but it’s so well known that it’s a cliché at this point: trends are cyclical, so just buy what you like regardless of whether it’s what everyone else is or is not wearing. Going through the 2022 trend forecasts for this year, I found that I already owned most of the things the industry is recommending because they were items that I’ve loved for myself for years. Things like this make me feel proud of the wardrobe I’m creating, for its highly sustainable nature in addition to its ability to represent me well.
