I'm so excited about this Harajuku vlog!

Everything is kawaii, pastel, aesthetic, pink and cute, and I think you'll love it!

Great comment left by xkawaiiaurax:
"So for those wondering about Bodyline I know wayy too much about them xD Bodyline is a store well known for cheap cosplay and Lolita fashion. They have an online website where you can order and have it shipped to you, wherever you may live (www.bodylineto.... Bodyline is very well known for being so diverse in sizing, both shoes and clothes alike. With the whole thing of not allowing you to try on things, most of or even all Lolita stores will not let you try on the clothes; purely because they are so expensive and difficult to make. Bodyline is definitely one of those stores that only really sells costume-y clothes or medium quality Lolita dresses, I have owned several dresses and pairs of shoes from them over the course of 5 years and they are well made and decent quality for the price. However if you aren't looking for Lolita styled clothes or seifukus your next best bet for pastel fashion is Listen Flavour. Although Listen Flavour only caters up to a AUS/UK 14-16, their store is located on the street on the right, right before you exit Takeshita Street. I know there are a few other plus sized brands around Japan but I'm unsure of where they're located. Being plus sized should never dishearten you from going shopping in Japan because even though all the sizing over there is much smaller than western sizing, I am almost certain that if you look hard enough, you can find something"
Some of the above links are affiliate links - you can tell because they have “shrsl” written in the URL. The items won’t cost you any more, but if you use these links, it will help me buy top quality almonds for Archie!

about the diy with old clothes from hauls that didn't work out: A HUNDRED PERCENT YES, PLEASE DO THAT, THAT'D BE SO AWESOME TO SEE!
I'm with you!!
Yesssssss plzz
I don't understand why people complain about the bird. Your personality and Archie is why I watch your videos
Same
Omg me too
Same!!
Flea it's because you are cultured boo😘
@@ziagrace5317 wtf
Omg your story about not fitting anything, when I went to Thailand when I was 15, they kept saying "too fat" I was also heartbroken and disheartened. Luckily I had my best friend with me and she is teeny like you , and everytime they said that to me, she would put down things she liked, tell them they were rude and leave 😍 she took such care of me.
It is hard to take thoguh xx I would love to know how you did lose your weight and what kept you motivated x
Yes it is, if it's obvious then there's no need to point it out
@The Lovely Mel Chan I know they don't intend for it to be mean but you'd think places that cater to tourists might learn that it's rude.
@The Lovely Mel Chan
It doesnt matter if it's not out of malice or of I'll intent, it's still rude.
Mel Campbell some places did that to me in France
Ashley Dailey in France? Really? If someone told you that here it’s bad because we find it rude too
You have officially become my "putting on make up person to watch" .. I find your videos so entertaining... and 100% THE BIRD STAYS!!!
*edit* When you're still watching the video and your comment gets loved! 😍 Thank you!

Now the daunting task of making sure all entries are counted! I'll report back with the winners soon!
Pretty Pastel Please i would probably fit those boots and theyre so cute so wth ill give it a go. My instagram is summer_paris77
I want the unicorn purse my instagram is iva 12.8 !
I loveeeee Archie!!!
I would really like those boots and I got really small feet. C:
I really love your videos, especiallh with Archie in them. We used to have a parrot too but, I don't remember the kind of parrot. His species do speak but not a large vocabulary and sometimes sounded garbbled. One of his first words were my name, he would scream it out because my dad would call for me to come help him. My dad was disabled and would need help to do things. Anyway for the giveaway I love the unicorn purse. Our parrot also liked the shower but loved it more when my dad used the dish sprayer on him in the sink and would lift his wings so my dad would spray him there. He also was best friends with our cat Bummer, he would ride on his back sometimes. Lots of love, Brandikkidd75757@gmail.com

You are literally the only person I can watch for an hour and not be bored
Bethie Bowie Samee👌🏼
thank you so much!
*doesn't realize shes watching a 1 hr video until it ends and she has to click off to watch another one, while her eyes widen in shock when she finds out her eyes have been blessed by this wonderful channel.*
awww thank you so much!!!!
*me waiting patiently during the intro* Alex: and every ones favorite bird, *my mind drumrolls* Me along w/ Alex: ARCHIIIEEEE 😛
Honestly me everytime, also I get ridiculously exited when he flies into frame 😊💚
Same!!!!
Me: Oh, I can't watch an hour long video, I'll get too bored
Also me: Wait, the video's over??????
THIS MEANS SO MUCH TO ME
Curly J haha!!! I feel the sameee
I didn't even realize the video was one hour I was just happy watching it omllll
Curly J please follow my channel
Could you please tell us your journey on how you lost weight? It would really help out a lot of us, especially my family who's been trying to lose weight and need some tips. Thank you if you read this :3
Edit: Thank you all so much for the support!
yes pleaseee
That would be awesome!
tip: broccoli and caulliflower are amazing substitutes for things like dough and potatoes and such. make sure to dehydrate them enough and then check out some recipes online~
Ejderha Draws hey, I lost 16kgs really fast eating high carb low fat plant based! And best of all I NEVER count calories. Heaps of meal ideas here on CZcams! Good luck on your journey! ❤️🐨
Allie Andrews this is true! Also make sure to drink lots of water. Idk about you and your family but i get dehydrated a lot quicker on the carb diet.
I for one, would LOVE to see some "The bird stays" T-shirt merch. I don't even want to explain what it means to anyone - I think it's a great phrase out of context. >.
It has to be green!
@@Gryffindame that or it has Archie raging on the front and flying on her hand on the back!
Yeassss please make the merch!!!!
I really appreciate this video because I live in Japan but for the last 33 years I thought I was female-I’m not, I’m a trans guy. So I’ve always had a love-hate relationship with Harajuku because it’s cute af and I love its aesthetic but shopping there (for women’s clothes) made me deeply unhappy in a way I couldn’t place. Now that I’m transitioning, I’m trying to figure out how to enjoy clothes again. I’ve really appreciated seeing Harajuku’s kawaii-ness through your eyes and it makes me want to go back someday and find some fun pieces I can enjoy as my real self.
(Also, Archie’s presence in this video was delightful and I enjoyed it very much.)
you are my icon as someone who is trans and love japan
Hi Alex, I was wondering if you would like to talk a bit more, maybe make a video, about your weight loss journey. It might really be helpful for me and maybe some others here as well. P.s.: really liked this video, as always! 💜
Joke Janssen I totally agree! Weight loss journey vid for the WIN 😀💪👊👌
Yes
I don't know if it would be that helpful, I'm sure she has said previously that she didn't lose weight in the healthiest way and I guess wouldn't want to recommend that to others.
Id like that too
Yeah I would love to hear this as well !
I think the pink boots are.... $70
... Edit: $5... Really.. Well damn.
"Hey kids wanna buy some seed" 😂😂😂
Lali Robbe haha best line ever
Almonds!
Mint is like pastel green so I don’t know what other people are talking about your right and I don’t care your hair is not tucked or is bc this is your channel also Achie sorry I can’t spell his name makes your channel way better and funny so your channel your choice
It’s 100% seafoam tho, minty isn’t as much as an opaque color
@@whickwhacksmacker So the difference (from my understanding) is the tint? But if thats the case, what abt a diff lighting? In my opinion a seafoam is more teal while mint (pastel) is like green and white. But I guess there's different mints. To me mint and mint plant are very diff things. (a dark blue green in my eyes)
The bird stays 💚
#TheBirdStays
I want to see your Louis Vuitton collection 😫😁
anyone got more info on this?? I'd love to see which stores are trustworthy in japan
As a busty 180cm tall girl with size 41/42 feet, I never bother with clothes shopping in Asia lol.
tiffanyvoerman same lol except Im 5cm shorter🗿 the stuggle...
im literally 167 and 43/44 size feet
Jesus Christ rip
Erika Lewis like Im 175 & 5”9 so it should be like 5”11
As a 180cm man with european size 43-44 who wears all black 24/7 I don't know what I'm doing here 😂
Absolutely love how you just throw the bird to make him go away. As someone who has never had birds, I would never have thought of that, but it makes so much sense.
Can u do a weight loss journey video? xx
Mehak Kohli - Yes! I really want her to do this
Can you do a video of what you did to Lose weight? I’m trying to lose weight but it’s not going so well.. it’s ok if you don’t want to because it is to emotionell (sry for my english😬)
Hour haul? Should be studying, but oh well. This is more entertaining.
this is me too
Rebecca F yes this
Yess, same!
SAME
Same 😂
Five Below (Store $5 or less in US) has a lot of that merch-Holo, Unicorn, Emoji band-aids, those make up bags or zipper bags, coin purses, I Love this store!
Some time in the future it would be awesome if you were to produce your own brand😍 you could call it Pretty Pastel Palace or something 😍😍 I would love that
aww that's so cute!!!!
Feel like I need like $2000 grand for harajuku alone 😂😂 I’m obsessed
Mushroom Destroyer you might need more I spent $1500 in 3hrs in harajuku 😂
Cheeky Sparkles that’s just the minimum amount I could easily blow $5000 there but like I’m no where near financially able to do so right now .... one day💜
Mushroom Destroyer sameeee
Motivation to save up and enjoy your Japan trip!!
If u go January to March you can catch the massive sales and packages are super cheap for hotel and airfare..
1. $60 - $80

Really only $5 that is actually crazy 😊
Edit: THANK YOU SO MUCH for liking my comment this has made my rubbish week sooooo much better, thank youuu 💛
You're very welcome!! Thank you so much for watching 😊. I hope you have a good weekend!!
Pretty Pastel Please No really, thank you for making an hour long video and just being the sweet person you are 😊
I know this is an old video but it’s probably my favorite “shopping in harajuku” video I’ve ever watched! 💗
I was a little disjointed with Harajuku when I went, it's cool and there is some good shopping, but IMO it's fast becoming a tourist trap and it's losing the edge that made it famous :(
I agree! I was underwhelmed
congratulating on your engagement as well love!
Oh lord when you hit the I couldn't fit into any thing spot....The feels. I'm a US 10/11 and living in Japan for three years. The fashion is all I want in life but I fit into about 1/10 things. Forget pants/bottoms. It's super hard.
I LOVE THE WAY YOU ARE RESPONDING TO HATE COMMENTS...ITS ONE OF THE QUALITIES EVERY HUMAN SHOULD HAVE
PLEASE COLLAB WITH SIMPLYNAILOGICAL!
YES I WANT TO ONE DAY :')
My dream is to do a video with Safiya and Cristine - Saf wears all black, Cristine wears holo and I wear pastel. It would be so perfect. Just have to hit a few million subscribers first 😂
Pretty Pastel Please YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Pretty Pastel Please Good Idea
Pretty Pastel Please If you ever do a meetup somewhere csn you PLEASE do it in New York
There are alot of nice chinese shops here.
omg yas
I can't believe that I watched this
Whole video enjoying her talking, showing her purchases and her company bird and cindy realized that the video was over an hour. Wow.
Omg !! Imagine if Alex and Shane did a video together 😀
I can honestly say that I would drop dead. I've loved him for years! Did you see his video with Safiya? I LOVE THEM BOTH 😂
Omg we need to make this happen!
Pretty Pastel Please he would love you but y'all would probly have to meet BC u live soooo far
Grat idea 🤔
9:56 I was watching this part and out of the corner of my eye I see a girl dancing in the corner. I think the only reason I find it so funny is cuz that would be me every time i go somewhere i get looks cause i have my headphones in dancing to BTS 😋😂😂😂
Hey Alex could you do a vid about losing weight? I looove you and Archie ❤️😚
*bEcAuSe...SQUISH SQUISH BISH😂😂*
have you ever talked about your weight loss journey?
I can't believe this is the video that started my journey of watching you and now we'll never get to see anything new. Rest easy, sweet soul. The bird stays 🕊
I feel kind of stupid for asking this but.... Could you maybe make a video about how you lost your weight? Like what you did? I currently weigh about as much as you did and nothing I do helps. I've done every diet, I've upped the working out, I've changed my eating habits and life style. I know that there are a ton of other factors that go into the fact that I can't lose weight... but it's a struggle... I can't look in mirrors and whenever I see my reflection it's just....
I'd just really like to know how you were able to do it and what you did?
I completely understand how you feel - i'll make a video on this to explain, but i'll tell you now that cutting out carbs completely (which includes sugars/fruits!!) really helped me a lot! I've been "Keto" for a while and it changed my life!
I've had the same success! Not to your degree, of course, but it really does work.
Problem with that is that I'm a vegetarian, so fruits are literally half my diet. But I would like to learn more about how to do this and see if there is a way that I could make it work with what I can eat.
Anniekitty There are lots of videos on CZcams that can give you a good idea of what you’d be able to eat on a vegetarian keto diet, along with websites. Adding fish into your diet also makes it a lot easier (if you’re willing to do so). But make sure to research a lot before jumping right into it :)
Holo Bandaids 💜
I would of totally bought that sushi hoodie and the egg hoodie 💜 also bodyline sells online, they have decent sales which makes up for the higher shipping costs
Would you ever consider talking more about your journey with your weight? I know t can be a touchy subject and all. My weight fluctuated a whole lot within the past couple years, I think due to depression and stress. In my case, I moved to Australia from Ohio to be with my partner at the time and things didn't go as well as I had hoped, and then being that I had worked so hard and basically spent all my money to be there and then figuring out that I'd have to come up with the money to leave the toxic relationship- I just got so stressed that I couldn't eat and I lost a ton of weight. I was 5'2" and 130lbs when I went there (and my USA family told me how small I was even then) and then when I came home after a year I had weighed 109lbs (which just looked wrong on my frame because the rib cage was prominent and my knees looked huge compared to the rest of my leg).
Then after being depressed last year I had gained so much and I think I messed my metabolism up from not eating so I blew up and was 157lbs at my highest weight and I'm losing it all now, and I've honestly just really been working on myself and trying to eat better and tbh eat MORE (because my whole life I only ever ate once a day) and it really is like a journey. I'm 141 now and I work really hard and got a fitbit and just at my job it says I'm doing 5+ hours of intense cardio, then when I get home I do P90x but I've been stuck where I am for such a long time and it can be really disheartening.
I just would like to hear your story too but if that's too touchy then yeah- totally understand.
My 1 year old son absolutely loves Archie. Whenever i watch your videos and archie shows up or talks, my little man gives the biggest smile.
the number 23 is probably 23 cm
some shoe sizes are based off of the actual measurement of the foot, from a persons heel to toe is 23 cm
Honestly even as an US resident I would prefer if we used a cm shoe measurement. It could be way more accurate. Like I am a size 9 or 9 and a half in most US sizes but my foot is a little over 25 cm and in most shoe charts I am SUPPOSE to be in a size 8 or 8 and a half.
It would be nice to have a more standardized way to tell what size a shoe is. It is a nightmare to try and find shoes online 75% of the time.
I'd also love more accurate sizing in the US. My foot is 23 cm long and I am right in between 7 1/2 and 8, but it's always a bit of a struggle--especially because my foot is narrow as well. The only time I have any luck with shoes fitting me like they're supposed to is when there's a defect (like the 7 1/2 being a nudge too long, or the 8 being a nudge too short) or I buy from a brand that's more precise in its sizing.
I think a 23 is around a size 6.
Im a size 8.5-9 in us but a 7.5 on some shoes like boots and heels. Its confusing.
Bodyline has an online store and ships to other countries and has their own shoe sizes chart.
Awww I loved this haul and I love “Archie” is it? Archie’s commentary. He is such a beautiful bird and I can tell he is well loved! You totally make me want to go to Japan!!!!
Also can we get a video on these second hand designer shops?
when you shared you story about shopping for western sizes i felt so represented, i had no idea its an experience that you could connect with but i have nothing but respect for you for saying that
Harajuku fashion is so cute and alex wears it so well
great job today archie, best sidekick ever 🔥
thank you so much!!!
Boots
worth: $80 u.s dollars
paid: $300 u.s dollars
reaction: WHAT!WHAT WHAT WHAT
then: SIZE SIX! noooooo!!! IM SIZE 9 1/2!!!
I RELATE TO THE REAL POCKET/FAKE POCKET DEBACLE
thank you for addressing the sizes, i'm beyond keen to save for Japan but the sizing definitely put me off my shopping dreams
Bodyline is also an online store, they ship to Australia too ^^ Theyre suuuper cheap despite them selling such niche style of clothes (lolita, cosplay, visual kei, w/e).
Check to see if the strawberry button up shirt is actually silk, cos if you paid $40 for a silk shirt that's not bad at all.
I reckon the wide flare jeans with the hearts would go quite well with any of your long sleeved shirts that are either wide near the cuff or just heaps of ruffles.
Check out the Betakuma stickers on facebook messenger, they are really funny aha
anyway that is all for my long comment, I'd love to win the unicorn pouch/purse! My IG is nightstarlady ^^
Thank you!!!
video idea that im sure so many people would love: you kept saying that you saw so many of these things for much cheaper on wish or aliexpress so you should do a video finding those items online for cheaper for people like meeeeee who cant go to Japan or afford to buy them online and pay the crazy shipping fro Japan!!!!
Blasphemy! I always get a crepe while in Harajuku. I like the strawberry/ice cream crepes the best (since I'm a strawberry girl haha), normally with the strawberry or chocolate sauce. The one with cheesecake is pretty decent, but I prefer ice cream after all. Also I have the opposite problem - the one size fits all skirts and stuff are actually too big on me (I'm a size 00 to 0 in US). But I'm always happy that I can find shoes that fit me (I'm size 5 to 5.5 US).
can we just talk about her weight loss journey pls?
she went from size 16 to size 6!!!!!
YES QUEEENNNN WE LOVE YOUUUUUUU
i actually kind of think that strawberry top goes well with that blue plaid skirt. If watching What Not to Wear has taught me anything its that clothes don't necessarily have to have the same print to go well together. Two bold prints can be worn together if there colors compliment eachother and seeing as the pink of that top and skirt seem similar on the camera i think it they look great together! and wearing a necklace in a similar blue shade and a white pair of sneakers with white socks would tie everything together quite well as well as a red handbag to bring in those strawberries!
I love this so much!!
Omg I need to know more about buying LV in japan
There is a really cute clothing store in Japan that is really cheap called Rivet and Surge! They have an instagram too and their stuff is really cute!
I know so well how you felt when nothing in the shop fitted. I feel that whenever I go to Italy, nothing ever fits! (eu 40/42). 😔 So I completely gave up shopping for clothes during holidays there. I'm so amazed and proud how you changed! It gave me another motivation that perhaps I can do it too and perhaps next time, I can shop anywhere. I would looooove to shop someday in Japan ☺️ thanks! Love your videos and looooove Archie! So cute 😊
YES HOUR LONG VID!!!!!!!!!
Holy shit. One hour. Let me get ready
I've just started watching the video, but is that an engament ring :o? I remember that you mentioned the possibility of your boyfriend proposing in Japan in another video x3
Amalur They got engaged in Japan! She posted it on her Instagram story :)
Omg!! I'm so happy for them
Amalur You’re welcome! :D
thank you so much!!!
I went for the first time last year and I already mentally prepared myself beforehand. I’m a plus size girl with very big hips and thicc thighs. I told myself before getting on that airplane that I was not going to look/shop for any clothing period point blank because I didn’t want to be disappointed when it doesn’t fit. I wanted to be happy the entire trip and not have a droplet of sadness or tears because I knew I’d most definitely cry. I wish I saw your videos before hand especially with your friend (I’m sorry I can’t remember her name but she’s super cute and plus size with lovely latte brown skin) because I would have known where to go and made proper attempts to buy something cute for myself. I’m so happy tho that I know now and next time I go to japan I’ll be more open. 💖
I'm so happy to see you and Archie ❤ sending lots of love from San Francisco ❤ XOXO
When I saw this was one hour long I was like yessssssssss get in my basket
(I know this was 4 months ago but I recently found her CZcams channel and fell in love with it)
Omg the way Archie said no he said some "noOoOOoooOOoooooO" I died laughing
The way he [Archie] sits on her shoulder and turns his little head to watch her as she talks is just about the most adorable thing I've ever seen. :3
You are such a good CZcamsr, I love your pet too!
Angele Dennel her pets name is Archie in case you where wondering
THIS IS AN HOUR LONG VIDEO, I'VE GOT MY SNACKS, AND I'M R E A D Y
I had no idea they reduce the prices so much?? That's insane, I'd love to have that in Europe as well wowww
And I'd like to try for the Holo bandaids! I get hurt so much and my skin so soft I wear bandaids all the time.
I follow you on ig and love your aesthetic 💕 My name is MajaDraws !
And yes Gene Simmons is from Kiss, ya know, the tongue guy.
You are amazing. Talking about the issue with weight really touched my heart and I’m so glad you were open about it. I wondered about that as a bigger person and I feel like so many people are afraid to talk about it. Especially the way you talked about it gently and with love and care.
Wow I didn't know you had been overweight. You have such a tiny frame I assumed you had always been like that
She wasn't really overweight, though
@@ashildrtheswift3028 she was lmao. 100 kilos is 220 pounds. If she's 5' 8" she would have been considered not just overweight, but obese. Which is why she's a huge motivation and inspiration cuz if she can do it any one that size can.
perinnial im 5’2 and i used to weigh 115 kgs now im 55 lol
perinnial guess I’m obese, lol.
@@MsWeLove1D I mean yeah, if you meet the criteria to be obese than you are.
When your incredibly small and realize you'll be able to fit anything in Japan......
Me: YEYEYEYEYYEYYEYE
Im a rlly tall teenager whos rlly skinny and not much fits without being baggy in US sizes. This hits close to home xD. Btw aliexpress has some good korean/japanese style clothes and theyre decently priced. Just make sure to go with good reviews if u go there.
Ooof! My feet are a 44, I went to Paris once, and when I told them my size the sales people laughed and walked away XD I would loooove to buy like all that but I have a feeling a super tall girl with big feet and huge hips would be struggling
Oh no I am sorry for you T^T It is so bad... Why Parisians are often giving a bad impression of us T^T
We're not like that :/
I hope you weren't hurt too much...
Yeah for most of "occidentalish" body types it is pretty hard... I wish we could though...
Korean fashion is my favorite kind of fashion, not because it’s korean and I like kpop, but because the fashion is so unique and beautiful. I’m definitely going to harajuku at least twice in my life
Calzedonia is actually italian, we have this store in Europe.
Cheshire Cat guess u were first. I just wrote this in the comments as Well 😂 Where are u from ?
Oh my goodness! this giveaway came out ages ago so I'm absolutely devastated because I just looked it up and the shoes are my size...
Same! I'm super disappointed; a giveaway finally has something I'm interested in _and_ that will fit me!
That would really upset me. I’m a US size 10 so I have a feeling I would have the same issue you had in the past with finding clothes that fit. Kind of stinks too when you’re only able to choose from a few stores when everybody else has their pick of the litter. I didn’t realize shopping in harajuku was difficult for anyone who’s not an “average” size 1, 3, or 5.
DebbieeeCo I know chubby people who even fit pants easily there so idk
You realize stores in the states cater to people like you, right? God forbid smaller people have stores that cater to their size.
I'm a UK size 10/12/14 and at the store I work in we stock sizes 4-20 with a majority being around a 6/8/10. But we still stock lots in all different sizes, there's just an illusion of "more" of certain sizes because other sizes are in high demand and sell out fast. We don't favour one size over another. Maybe it's different in the states?
Tizella O stores in the states cater to people my size? When I was a size 0, 3, and 5 I never had any problems finding XS tops or size 0 or 00 pants. Only after having had 3 children, I’ve grown and still don’t have a problem finding clothes here in the US. I was just saying I would feel sad having the same issue Alex had in the past when visiting Harajuku. Only having a couple stores to shop at for your size isn’t fair. I’m all about inclusivity and I feel every store should carry things for every size. Why single out just smaller people or just larger people? There are tons of beautiful clothes at the store Torrid that many people want but can’t fit into. I would LOVE if they’d make another branch of the store to include all sizes. It’s just not a nice feeling of being left out because you don’t fit the picture for what size body is ideal.
EternalAngel it’s the same here in the states lol. Most stores here (except plus size stores like Torrid) carry all sizes from 00-16 (some only to size 12 or 14). It’s just hard to find certain sizes because they’re so in demand. When I was a size 0 I would always find my size in stores but once I grew to a size 3 I would have the hardest time finding things in my size because many people who were also a size 3 were buying the hot items before I could get to them. The only stores here that “cater” to bigger women are plus size stores, but the good ones are hard to come by. There’s Torrid but they’re super expensive. The few other plus size stores around have clothes that aren’t very stylish and just look outdated or cheap.
I’m still only 14 and I’ve already started saving to go to Japan. I was never quite sure if I was going to find things that fitted me. So it really helped that you addressed that! I’ve always been a chubby kid so it looks like I’ll be working out for the next few years😂 the adorable dresses and all the Lolita really motivates me to lose weight
Also... I would love to see the other side of you. You post all theses cute shoppers videos but when you brought up the weight loss it made me want to know more about you as a person and not just as a reviewer.
Hi!
I’m really inspired by your weight loss, and it’s so inspiring me, and I was wondering how you lost the weight? Can you either give me some tips in your reply or film a video about it? Love you ❤️
Im not here for the giveaway, I just wanted to see what you purchased in Japan... oh and of course, Archie! Good luck to all the entries for the giveaway!
I've only started watching your channel in the past week, and to be honest I was really half and half from previous videos talking about skin on your thighs etc etc and I felt a bit weird being a bigger person and your figure is to die for. Finding out you have gone through such a dramatic weigh loss journey has really inspired me. Without being judgemental its just a personal issue of jealousy wishing to be "skinny" and having such awful feelings of never having clothes never fit me even in England. I am also sick of never finding clothes and cry getting dressed in the morning. Thank you for sharing your story. Love to you! You deserve to love yourself xo
Also i love Archie he matches the green of my hair
You two at the end were so so sooooo adorable 😻
Anybody noticed the girl dancing in the background at 9:56? (idk if anybody else in the comments has said it, but I think it was funny.)
Living vicariously through you right now...
OMG 🤣when she smacked Archie "SORRY MATE" so funny I love this channel
worth: 60-80
paid: 40
who. the hell. sold them. for $5. this store. smexy.
I thought the same and i was like waaaaaaaaaa I'm going to buy these
How did you get such flat stomach and slender arms after losing weight? I lost 20 kilos and I for the life of me have never been able to achieve a flat stomach. I genuinely tought you'd always been that slender, you have a really nice figure!
Ikr, this is the only reason why I want metabolism lol
I FREAKING LOST IT AT “the bird deserves to be on the internet more than you do” and “but my pull out game is weak”
I’m so impressed that you use to be as big as I am and managed to lose all that weight. I’m currently between size 16 and 18 Australian. I’ve started trying to lose weight and I’m doing okay. But seeing how you’ve succeeded is really encouraging. Thank you
I'd really like to know where do you keep all your clothes (sooo much stuff and your room looks tiny)
i'm still asking myself this question :|
(I have a large wardrobe along the whole wall! I'll show it in a video!)
"Alex getting annoyed with Archie for an hour straight"
I should be outside in my garden weeding, but it's hot, aaaand I mean I need to rehydrate....for an hour.... oh I need those bandaids too...I get hurt a lot. Holo would speed up the process.
Heather Banyay I also need to weed my garden those plants just keep growing
I dont know why but 4:45 those pants are to die for and the bags are incredible. My personal style is very simple and classic however im obsessed with your taste and i adore your channel. I have too much fun. And archie is the cutest bird i have ever seen. Love you alex.
Love ur channel, love Archie but everytime u said “fitted me” instead of “fit me” I died a little inside lol
*gets popcorn* I need to watch something and hour long to waste time so this was perfect. I want to go to Japan so I'm super jealous.
I would love to see a video on your weight loss journey, obviously only if that is something you would feel comfortable talking about? X
Lol I actually like the hair tucked because it makes it easier to see how the shirts look
