0.08 I have a hard time finding shirts that fit right. I am short from my shoulders to my bust (petite fits this area best), but I have a long torso and a long rise. So if a shirt fits my top portion, it’s usually too short. I’m guessing I’m going to need to tailor my clothes?
1.35 I try to ensure that any garment that I buy is versatile enough to go with at least three of my existing items of clothing, I still find that when I do purchase something, I’m thinking, ‘if I only had whatever, it would make that new item look great.” Is this just a state of mind or something else? I also have a strict one-in-one-out policy
3.47 At present my body shape is changing as I’m starting to lose weight. Am on a very limited budget. I love colour and clothes but my whole confidence has gone. Is 2nd hand the only way to go? Are there any basic guidelines?

0.08 I would like you to do a video on eye patterns if possible! There isn’t much information on it and I value your opinion! For example, someone who has starburst and freckles is considered warm, but I haven’t fully comprehended if that means autumn or spring (light and bright or soft and muted?). Does eye pattern show your dominant or secondary? What information can we get from eye patterns for our colours and style?
2.32 I’m 74 years old and still live in jeans, tee shirts, tailored shirts, blazers, good shoes and I want to stay in style but not look like I’m trying too hard. I’m very fair and have white hair so I have added more color to my wardrobe instead of my black/navy/white routine to brighten my face. Suggestions?

Such interesting reader questions and I really love your answers! Alterations are such a great option that many people tend to forget about. The best advice I ever received with regard to style is that we should stop trying to make our bodies fit the clothes and instead make the clothing fit our bodies. I love your second hand shopping tips, too. I am an avid thrifter! And when you buy second hand, it is less expensive which gives you more funds for alterations. Thanks for sharing and linking with me!
