I live in a small space. I love it! It is fun to decorate. It is warm and cozy and inviting. There are candles everywhere and I turn off my electrical lighting so there is soft candlelight filling the rooms. My beds have layer and layers of quilts and linens. Likewise my chesterfield and chairs. Many things can be moved about giving each room a unique look. People feel welcome and are comfortable at my home. I love it! PS. Vertical storage everywhere!

Beautiful! Does Lily Silk use weighted silks? If it’s not too late, send that SOS silk shirt back for a smaller size. It’s fabulous, merely too loose, too big in the shoulders and too long in the sleeves. Love your picks and your philosophy! Thanks for another helpful video.

That tiny room is a great lesson in packing in all you need to a small space. Practical and beautiful. We need to normalize this so people can afford their own homes.

Finishing School - good for you! It makes sense, being in your career/profession and an Online Celeb as well, to have more tools to better your channel... speaking, presentation, dressing... all helps to improve the videos BUT just so you know, we all loved you and your channel anyways!

I think you look beautiful in the blue.😍 All of them , but the blue just looks.😍

Clothes are so important for our image. They" speak" for you. You look sophisticated.

I've never been one for fashion, it's just way more energy than I want to give it. But I love it for and on others.

I love to just look pretty but also functional. I have a small farm so wearing heels now just isn’t practical, but I do love a pretty sandal! Feeling put together is the key to pulling the look off! Thank you Sarah for making feeling pretty a thing again! Love all your design tips!!

Good morning She Holds Dearly. Excellent video. Your small space decorating skills are absolutely impeccable - but of course that's to be expected from a strong self sufficient and frugal woman such as yourself. And yes, you should definitely keep the jeans (and of course the dresses and the heels as well) TYFS. 😊😊

Can't wait for Brimfield highlights. Being formerly from New England I would go to Brimfield three times a year. There is no better antique fair. ANYTHING you want can be found there. Boston so much to see and do. Glad you were able to make the trip.

Great video. Thanks for the tips and the fashion show. It's nice to see the clothes on a real person and not just on the website. I've worn dresses for years and I'm a real fabric snob. I live in a warm climate so natural fibers are a must. As to Boston, I'd love to visit there and someone just told me about a hysterical folk song by the Kingston Trio about the mass transit system there. It's called "the man who never returned" (M.T.A.). The lyrics will give you a laugh!

Hi Sarah! Wow you are gorgeous in those clothes!! 🤩😍 Also, I love the footage of Boston, I’ve never been but now NEED to go!!! Your daughters rooms are beautiful as well! TFS, great video!

I am from NYC and small rooms are how we live here. This was so helpful in providing me with new ideas for decorating. As well as over this past year I have turned to dresses more and more for the simplicity of dressing every day! Only 1 item to choose

Love history ❤ My family has roots in Boston. Written down in history during the 1700’s before the revolution.

I work in the medical field so it’s scrubs only for work but in my home life I only where dresses. I absolutely love them and feel so pretty in them.

Just be yourself. Beauty comes from within. Your beauty shines through. Nay to the haters and dissenters. You are mega talented and creative. I love REAL people. Great tips on small spaces. I am a primitive want-to- be, and have ended up with country rustic cottage (I guess). Thanks for sharing! Love you! In Novemeber, in Arthur, Arcola and Tuscola are the semi-annual big antique and primitive shows in Illinois, think there are 5 total. The small towns are all within close driving distance of each other. They are fabulous! People from all over the country attend. The Otto Center is my favorite, right in the heart of Illinois' Amish communities. If you are looking for another antiquing adventure, this is the place.

The finishing school does sound so interesting!! LOVED the beautiful outfits on you. They were so pretty with your hair!❤️❤️❤️

I have a few dresses, but I seldom wear them. Give me jeans and a pretty top any day. I also got rid of all my heels to replace them with shoes that were stylish but comfortable. Oh, and I love Boston. The Green Dragon pub and the aquarium are two of my favorite places. If you want a lovely coffee shop I can never recommend the Thinking Cup enough.

Beautiful outfits. Loved the navy and white, well all of them. 😊😍 Boston looks beautiful and so much history! Thank you for sharing views from your trip. 🥰

I really enjoyed you sharing the tight space in your daughter's room. My house was built in 1959, and the two rooms upstairs are very similar to yours, with the slanted ceilings. So it makes it hard (for me) to decide how to decorate both rooms. But, you've given me some great ideas. Thank you for sharing! 😊🤗

This Texan would love to wear mostly dresses in warm weather. So much cooler than jeans and more modest (and problem concealing 😳) than shorts. BUT dealing with warm places, hot sun then icy cold ac in businesses and church drives me back to pants/jeans year round

Keep the jeans! There is always a place for jeans where dresses and heels just don't fit.

Fun to see you being impressed with Boston. I live in Philadelphia. Have an adult son in Boston and college student daughter in NYC. We've grown accustom to the beauty, tiny hotel rooms and parallel parking is a regular part of our lives.. My husband and I honeymooned in Seattle and Victoria. We thought that was beautiful. Yes, I carry an umbrella!

Lovely video like 3 in 1. You look elegant and beautiful in all your looks. Now that I live in Illinois, I bought two cashmere.sweaters. They save me in the winter!

There is so much history. The park in front of the statehouse is beautiful. Beacon Hill is like no where else The wrap dress looks so pretty on you

The squirrels in Boston commons will eat right out of ur hand. It’s crazy, I guess they r so used to people feeding them. Boston is definitely my favorite big city. Can’t wait to go back! God bless, John 3:16🙏

I was never good at fashion because I grew up wearing whatever we could get lol….and I joined the Air Force and wore uniforms basically, and then when I had a career in Accounting, it was during the time (2000-2011) when we did wear really nice outfits , first requiring suits (skirt/blouse/jacket combos) and then it eased off to just business casual. I would get my clothes when seasons changed and they seemed to have nice clothes at 80% off, lol so I took advantage when I could! My daughter is the fashionista! But I just love your channel so much. I’ve looked at utube since 2020 and I’m still wondering what I could offer from my experiences in my life. Thank you for the wonderful video filled with a variety of things like decorating in small spaces, the beautiful fashion, the gorgeous architecture, and your mentioning of the finishing school! That’s so neat! I need that! I love wearing dresses but I have to be careful because I’ve had multiple spinal surgeries. So heels are ok sometimes, like the cork heels, etc. but also I’m waaaaaay older than you and I just feel lost sometimes. I love utube, working with wood, tax accounting, other things as well, but I’ve written too much already! I’m sorry! Thank u for your wonderful video. Well done!!!!😊

Hi Patty! I shared more about my thoughts in my newest Brimfield video! kzread.info/dash/bejne/qK2exalrd8fYgLg.html

Ha! After I sold my house i rented an apartment that had street parking only and was forced to parallel park. I must admit that at first if a car was behind me, I would abort and drive around the block. Now it is a challenge to see how small a spot I can get into. Looking forward to Brimfield!

Lol, I'm from the Cape, we only go to Boston for doctors appointments pretty much. It is pretty, but I'm not a city girl. I should try to enjoy it a little more like you did.

Your hair looks gorgeous pulled up. Plus you look gorgeous in a dress. Thanks for this video.

Would love to wear dresses and heels...... but at age 70, there is no longer a flat stomach or a waistline!!! When you are small and tiny like you, you can't imagine what its like to not be that size. Every clothes choice now, is what will it cover.... haha But I had my day is the sun..... showed my upper arms, wore little dresses ... ahhhhhh , it was bliss. Now I am just glad I can at least wear shorts, mom shorts, as my legs held up! Oh well, there are trade offs to get to this age!

You look gorgeous. Because you are gorgeous but also because you are wearing colors that suit you. You don't need money to look great you just need to know what colors bring out your best and silhouettes that suit your body and yes natural fibers.

Boston is beautiful city and Brimfield is very special. We’ve been going to Brimfield for decades. Could you please compare it to Roundtop? Maybe we will plan a trip around Roundtop. Although, you can spend a week at Brimfield and still not see everything. I was there for two days this month!

Great ideas💝. I don’t parallel park either🙋🏻‍♀️

Rayon or modal is my one exception to buying natural fibers. It is cooler than cotton, breathable and so soft. It is made from wood or bamboo, but processed, so not considered natural. You have to cold wash and hang dry, but it's worth it, to me.
