Please share a video which demonstrate simple tweaks to outdated outfits to make them more stylish for those people who do not wish to buy new clothes imminently

I'm very impressed you mentioned that someone who is viewing this in a few years should consider what is current at that time. I've been around for 65 years. I promise at some point the above the ankle pants, oversized blazers and long dresses will look dated. Looking current and pulled togther will always require re-evaluation.

This was a superb video demonstration. I'm one of those guilty of thinking you would look good in a bin bag 😊 You really are the best stylist I've found on social media. I never comment, but just wanted to say thank you for all of your FREE advice. Can't believe you haven't got a million followers plus on you tube, you deserve so much more!

If there's one expression I positively loathe, it's "on trend". Landfills are full of items which were "on trend" last year. Pick classic styles, and they'll last forever.

Its hard to wear spaghetti straps and a flouncy maxi skirt if you are a petite apple shape

Love all your videos but this one is crystal clear! The way you showed the side-by-side contrast was so effective. I think one issue for many women is we equate modern style with youthful style but we're not youthful, so it feels wrong. But we can do both. Be stylish, modern and put together without looking like a 20 something. You show us every week we can do this! Thank you.

I just pulled out 10 things to donate from my closet after watching this. Thank you for helping us all around the world!

Flabbergasted 😲 at the difference in appearance Melissa. Amazing demo I wouldnt have believed without seeing. A full length mirror may be the #1 wardrobe staple.

This was sooooo good.
Have to confess I did enjoy seeing Melissa NOT looking fabulous for a change and I did laugh along with your staff at the outfits. You looked so uncomfortable looking dated. 😂
It really helped to see how dated we can look if we're not carefull with what's in out wardrobes. Time for a clearout methinks.

27:00 The Mary Jane shoe is an adorable classic.

What a wonderful video to remind us that elegance isn't about perfection, but about confidence and being ourselves

If I didn’t feel so self confident about my stomach I’d be tucking everything in because it looks so chic but I just can’t bring myself to do it. It looks fine from the front but as soon as I turn to the side it looks terrible.

I permanently have to wear running shoes due to a disability, this was a good insightful video but I’m never going to be able to wear pretty shoes so I’m grateful that trainers have become more socially acceptable.

A good follow up video might be how to style outdated pieces without purchasing a whole new outfit.

Love the show and tell. Makes it so easy to understand and appreciate what you’re are saying. One of the best videos I’ve seen from your channel. Thank you!

Wrap dresses are a classic silhouette, but they need to be styled properly to maintain style.
I will die on this hill defending a beautifully tailored, well fitting wrap in a solid color or minimal, neutral print!

Always so genuine and warm. Even your request for us to subscribe is so genuine and not robotic, like just about every other channel, where I’d tune out or fast forward. I think your success (as I’ve mentioned before!) is not only the amazing content but also likability factor, being honest, genuine and a genuinely nice person - it does shine through the videos!
Always quality content and editing. We are so lucky ❤

You have the heart of a teacher. You correct without shaming. Thank you for this style of video, it’s very helpful.

"Not the traditional North Face sort that you'd go walking up a mountain in" 😂😂😂 died at this!

The green slacks and white top, white pointed shoes is refreshing.

When I was dressing people I heard the same thing, not about my curvy body but about models, etc., I showed them with the hemlines that I can make anyone’s legs look awful, and also great. Looking good depends on proportion, scale, color and style. Anyone at any size can look good! One of my co-workers was a plus sized person and when I first met her I was absolutely impressed by what she was wearing. She looked stunning in a peach silky skirted suit. It fit perfectly, was scaled appropriately, looked awesome and she wore it with confidence and panache! Your advice is spot on and your channel is the best at giving sensible, workable advice! Serious kudos!
