Hi Lisa- here is some size advice. As I said yesterday, based on what you share, I think we are about the same size (and have had a similar arc…although I lost weight just over a year ago). AG Mari jeans: last year I bought the 28 and 29. I went back and forth and ultimately kept the 29s. They do fit and look good, but I wish I had kept the 28s instead because I think they would have fit better. I think I was just not confident in my weight loss yet so I was hedging. AG ex boyfriend: 3 years ago, I bought the 28 (that was a size down) and 2 years ago I bought the 29s. Now the 28 fit, but I bet the 27s would be better. Hustler: these are my favorite. I don’t love where they hit with sneakers but I love them with booties and flats. I’m considering getting another pair to cut so I have 2 lengths. I have another pair of hustlers (darker) in a 28 and they fit great, but I ordered the Meet Cute in a 28 and while they do fit, I just ordered the 29 to compare. The Frame blouse is beautiful. I picked it up at the sale. I think I have 5-6 of them (at least 1-2 are the long sleeve version which is also amazing). My black short sleeve one is my number one worn blouse. It comes in a matte and a shiny. I love the matte. This is my #1 recommendation. Pair that with dark jeans, heels, and Celine belt for the easiest look. My husband jokes that it is my uniform. 😂 Been watching all of your videos since (close to) the beginning. I’m just not a commenter usually. Not sure why now, but hopefully this was helpful!

Denise, thank you so much!! This was incredibly helpful. Sounds like we have very similar taste. I will definitely be checking out the Frame blouses from now on. They are pricey but as I’m trying to buy higher quality but fewer items for my new body, I think they are worth it! 💜

I purchased the Mother Hustler cropped jeans in a size 26. I’m 5 feet 4 and 120 lbs. I left them with alterations to take up the hem by 1.5 inches. They can retain the raw hem, which is part of the appeal of the pant. I think the crop looks much more intentional when the ankle shows. I plan to wear with loafers or other flats. Regarding the cropped palazzo jeans you asked for opinions on, I think palazzos on us more petite ladies, look best long. A cropped palazzo or other cropped wide leg style makes our legs look shorter. I’d go long with wide cuts and you can crop with more slim/bootcut/flare styles. If you’re looking for cute ballerinas, check out the Prada Mary Jane’s - they’ll look great with the Mother Hustler cropped jeans. I’ll be getting the red patent leather version. Happy shopping and feel better soon!

Thanks so much for your help. My issue with the palazzo is that it’s not long enough on me to wear with a heel as I normally would a wide leg pant. So I feel like it’s just an awkward length on my 5’6” height. Still pondering that one. I’ll definitely shorten the mother jeans. I’ll definitely checkout the Prada shoes. I did pickup a flat maryjane from the sale (still need to get them from the store) so hoping I like those. But I’m sure the Prada ones are gorgeous. Thanks again!🥰

You have some beautiful choices! As far as the denim/jeans….on a straight fit I like them to hit right above the ankle but a wide leg I like a full length with a heeled boot or sandal. I think wide leg looks more chic and leg lengthening in a long length. Hope that helps!
@luxuryandlifeinthemiddle

Thanks for your input. I generally like a wide leg full length too but for some reason I kind of like the palazzo ones cropped. I think because they’re not long enough on me to wear with a heel. 💜

How fun to be able to buy new clothes after your weight loss. I find it hard to believe that you were 40 lbs heavier, you carried it well. You look fabulous now. I wish I was a jeans person. I have several pairs but rarely every wear them and never in the summer. The Adidas sizing sounds like they’re men’s sizing. I like the Open Edit ruched top but not sure if I like the feel of neckline on me. I’m sad because it’s a great top. I’m surprised that you have to size down with the Good American jacket, I love this look! I bought the Veronica Beard denim jacket in a similar style last year, but it was way more expensive! 😣 thank you for all your hard work in doing this video, rest up and get well soon!

I’ve been buying Max Mara coats for 25 years, and still own all the ones I bought but 2. They are classic, well made & go easily from work to casual. I still wear and get compliments on the very first one from 1999, an off white wool swing coat. It looks like new. I sold 1 that I realized was a duplicate for one I already had (anyone else do that?😊), and one that was too formal after retirement. All to say, yes, they are more expensive than most, but your cost per wear will be minimal. They are always a good buy! I hope you love yours!

I am so glad you bought Max Mara coat. I have four: grey, pink, black, camel. The ones without lining need a warm sweater under in winter, so it’s good you got larger size. For the jeans my advice would be to resist temptation to shorten higher over the ankle. I know that stylists recommended showing your narrowest part, but the proportions look better longer IMHO😀You deserve a medal for endurance 🌷🏋️♀️I would be on the floor after jeans #3.

Hi! Please don’t take this the wrong way…lol…I’ve just seen so much inconsistency in the gazelle sizing. Is it possible on yours the 7 is the men’s sizing on the box? Thank you so much in advance. Trying to figure out what size to try.
@luxuryandlifeinthemiddle
2 ай бұрын
I’m glad you asked. You are correct. I didn’t realize that the gazelles were also men sizing. So based on that I would say size down half a size. I looked at my sambas and they’re also 7s. I normally wear an 8-8.5 in shoes (although that being said I just picked up a pair of Sam Edelman flats in a 7.5 😂). Maybe my feet shrunk, too??!!

My comments follow the order of your video. Although the full-length pants make your legs look longer, I vote for shortening them for style. The size 29 jeans look great on you--I vote for shortening them. The size 30 Mother jeans look good; you could try the 29. It's my taste, but I don't like the dressy blouse with the W & W jeans. You have a very nice figure, and just about everything looks good on you.

1st outfit-yes, 2nd-no, 3rd-yes, 4th-yes and liked jeans both ways, Jean jacket-yes and I liked the second wash and w/out hem. I liked the blue polo and the jean myself but if you not like you won’t wear:) Tan cashmere sweater and the second jeans cropped w/the heels-loved. Blue/white top-not my fav but loved the jeans on you. The little white ruched sweater-yes, all those looked so good. Sorry but black jacket is no for me. Liked the push up sleeve but hate the puffed shoulders. Loved the next outfit with both tops-those jeans looked great on you. Okay loved the black bomber jacket and the wide leg jeans but sorry I hated the top. The vest was great! The next jeans will look great when you get the size right. Like you black coat is a no. Loved the Max Mara coat-gorgeous color. So these are my honest opinions but I want to say Lisa everything looked great it is just a matter of what you like best. 💕 And thank you for sharing with us-loved being able to see everything!
