AskAW 11 - Am I Scamming You?, Suit Packing, Elevating Your Style, Dress Shoe Colors

About this video

Weston and her fiancé Dorian answer viewer questions about menswear styling, addressing concerns about product recommendation integrity, packing techniques for travel, building a colorful wardrobe, and shoe purchasing strategy. Weston emphasizes that she maintains editorial integrity by not accepting paid sponsorships, recommends practical styling solutions like adding color through statement pieces, and argues against the belief that neutral wardrobes are boring.

Key takeaways

  • Weston does not accept paid sponsorships and only recommends products she genuinely believes in; she maintains that affiliate commissions are industry standard and allow her to provide free content
  • Weston demonstrates how to fold a sport coat or suit for weekender travel by inverting sleeves and placing it on top of luggage to protect shoulder padding
  • Weston argues that neutral color palettes with timeless pieces are not boring—bold colors can be introduced through statement pieces like a colored jacket or accessories rather than clashing patterns
  • Weston recommends purchasing the same shoe style in multiple colors if it fits well rather than forcing yourself to find different styles, calling this a smart investment strategy
