When it comes to trendy items such as red tights, I just tell myself I don't need to own a specific piece to appreciate it. I can just admire something from afar. That has saved me many times lol
I love how it looks too. But I so rarely wear tights!! I used to all the time but now unless it’s freezing cold I refuse to wear
That is such a good way of thinking! I will start adopting this mindset.will save you a lot of money 😊
me too, also going to goodwill and trying on the recent trends and not buying them is fun
wait that's so smart, i need to think that way too!
Reminds me of what Snufkin from Moomins said "I like just looking at things, and when I leave, I have them in my memories. You don't have to carry everything with you."
I like the skinny glasses trend because they subvert that "nerdy" association into something cool, sexy and intentional, rather than what your parents made you wear as a tween. It makes sense that they are making a comeback because they have been so out of style for so long that people looking for a new way to be unique and expressive can reach for nostalgic items like these and change the narrative around them into something current!
This is funny because that's how we felt about the big glasses when they started to come in ten years ago. The large glasses were the sexy nerd. Then style comes around and now the small glasses are sexy again.
I honestly dont get them. Like at alll, no one over the age of 12 can pull them off
Yeah, as someone with glasses (not this style) it doesn't remind me of nerds or geeks at all. It looks too sexy for that. Like a sexy assistant. Or maybe it's because gorgeous women are wearing it on pictures?
Yeah I’ve noticed a lot of “stereotypically” attractive women wearing the skinny glasses like Billie Ellison and Renee Rap, Madison Beer, and it’s kinda giving “I’m so pretty I can pull off anything”
Elish*
I had the skinny glasses as a dorky middle schooler and I know that if I put on a pair today I would instantly look like a nerdy 12-year-old again
i feel the exact same way :') i tried a pair on and went oh my god i look like a 12 year old.
Yo! I had them as a dorky middle schooler too! Wild that this is a common experience across multiple demographics of people that I've seen. Somehow this is universal.
Also you literally could not see out of them, it was terrible. I always had a headache with mine and was so happy when I started wearing contacts and could actually see. I wear big glasses now and will never wear the tiny ones again!
yess!! i wore such glasses for 3 years in primary school and i wasn’t hating them or bullied for them, but they never looked so stunning as they are on these models from pinterest, and for some reason i am frustrated that i feel that way mostly because i couldn’t relate to anyone at that time 10 years ago, that type of glasses was weird for a decade, and now as i distanced myself mentally from these glasses to escape embarrassment, they become trendy, the girls look so good in them, but i can’t get over the impression that i will become a weird 10 y.o. me and not a cute girlie
I STILL have a pair of them in my closet!!! From 5th grade!! 😂😂
As a lawyer that doesn’t like having to buy clothes they can’t wear to work, I love corpcore. Now I can wear my work clothes to everything and be fashionable on a technicality!
It’s really funny when I’m out after work and someone compliments my slacks and collared shirt combo 😂 like thank you queen, but this is my work outfit
got that 2010 business at the club aesthetic
🥹 lmao 🤣
I remember when ballet flats and Toms flat shoes were all the rage and my lasting impression of them was that it made people’s feet smell like bio chemical weapons of war 🤢
LOL you're so right for this
Omg you're right I forgot about that part 😅 It's because most of them are made of only synthetic materials
💀💀💀
So funny! Guilty! ❤ toms! I thrift them easily but I wash them! They wash well which is a plus! I live in Florida so toms work well for me! I’m 59 so there you go! Lol middle aged flat shoe wearer here! I miss a chunky shoe! I wore big ole chunky plats in the 90s, but now it’s flats mostly. I love 💕 vintage embroidered flats! I have several pairs! 😮 leather, silk, sateen, linen and from various countries. Unique twist on a flat.
I live in the UK, notorious for being a rainy country, these shoes were useless as a defence against water incursion. The smell of a rainy day for me in 6th form college was Lynx Africa, damp socks, damp ballet flats, damp denim because everybody's jeans were too long until around 2011 🤢
to me those skinny glasses are intrinsically linked with the bayonetta games
yes!! not necessarily a bad thing, but not the vibe I’m going for lol
So true. I thought "librarian but in a porno" when I saw those glasses but Bayonetta probably made it trendy because she is a (virtual) sex icon now
true and that why i wanted them
I’ve been wearing these glasses for 3 years and still don’t know what bayonetta is.
To me I’m annoyed about this trend because I liked wearing these glasses because they are “ugly” and I was trying be different..
It feels a bit like a part of me is taken away now that it’s a trend hahah. So I’m happy that some people don’t like them..
(I’m an Aquarius moon and rising)😅
@@apenstaartjeanna3889haha sorry your a trendy now! Bayonetta is a video game character, she’s a witch and seriously cool
The photo of Lauryn Hill from 1998 being used to illustrate a 2023 trend is such a perfect distillation of how fashion cycles work, I love it
i love the term "corporate overlord chic" and i feel like it should be the corporate-core style + Fantasy Evil. like, gimme a job interview outfit with a black cape or like a high velvet collar and i will gladly be your minion
Ooh, that actually sounds like how one of my book characters dresses! I'd love this if it was an actual trend.
A friend of mine called it "a blazer girl, in the chic gaslight gatekeep girlboss way" lmao
That kind of falls into corporate goth
I actually am so glad to hear someone say they dislike the ballet flat and adidas sambas trend.
I really think they’re so underwhelming and overhyped!
I hate super flat shoes in general
i love the Adidas sambas but they’re so expensive in my country so I’ll only look them from afar lol I have convinced myself they’re actually ugly
I can’t with the Sambas, I think they look like soccer cleats lol (I love my Superstars though! Also the Sambas look like they wouldn’t be as comfortable tbh)
@@riabouchinskathey r soccer cleats 😂
@@riabouchinskaig u wouldn’t get it :/
big yes to the “styling trends i hate” video idea!!
i second this ❤
I started laughing out loud about the middle aged Catholic school teacher and the long denim skirt. EXACTLY. I tried one and it gave precisely those vibes. No thank you.
Same! I’m also unable to Not see the jeans in a denim skirt made from jeans 😅
For me, it screams 18 and counting. Ugh plus they are physically heavy. I don't like feeling weighed down by my clothes.
I'm the complete opposite 😭 it's the best thing I've ever added to my closet as it made all my outfits look elegant
@@unhingedhoursdont worry me too
I was a denim skirt hater for a long time, but because I found one that suited my very VERY specific taste, I got it and I love it. It's a gored flared skirt with panels and it's very long, a silhouette that feels very Edwardian to me. It's also in a very lightly washed black denim so it's not obvious that it's denim. It's a shape I love in a practical fabrication and the structure of the denim means it holds its shape nicely even without a petticoat (searching for a suitable vintage petticoat to wear underneath it though for the vibes) and it's perfect for me. It took me finding that one specific skirt out of dozens of other denim maxis I hated to be like "okay yeah maybe this could work."
I’m 45 and it seems to me that more than ever , fashion is at an “anything goes “ standpoint.
People can basically wear anything these days which is great !
I loved this as someone who wears polka dots ballet flats and off the shoulder tops
lindsey!!!
Yes I'm a polka dot and ballet flats girl too ☺️
As a former dorky girl with very bad vision, the skinny glasses trend confused me as well. However, I have come to love it as a form of reclamation and overcoming the pain of fearing what is considered, "cringe." It's also reminscent of like, "2001 rom-com heroine has just been hired into her first big-city role..."
Also, those sneakers are way cuter than other sneakers imo, they look more feminine, low-key, put-together, and serious than the other options, which feel clunkier/less mature (however, the extra weight they provide matches the preferences you alluded to earlier in the vid).
this made me understand why i kinda like the skinny glasses while having the same dorky connotations. The pre makeover princess diaries look yk. kind of retro geeky girl next door. I think it's cute :)
No same. I WORE the skinny glasses back in highschool because they were all I could afford. I look horrific in that style of glasses! I was also bullied for it too! Is it trendy because it’s actually cute or is it trendy because conventionally attractive people wear it now? 🥲
@@meowmeowkillmenow4773 asking the real questions over here!
I got some of the skinny glasses before they got really popular and always felt a bit dorky in them because i had some that were almost identical when I was a pre teen
I now love my skinny glasses because they give off the androgynous vibes I like but are also nostalgic in a weird way
The visceral reaction I have with the skinny glasses as the dorky kid who had them in 4th/5th grade is so real. Like I think some people can pull them off, but I absolutely can not get behind them for myself and will happily stick with my round wire rims thank you
Edit: grammar lol
I wear glasses because 9 need them
I aint gonna buy new prescription glasses everytime
After she showed so many pictures of them glasses they started looking so ridiculous like they were photoshopped onto the faces 😂
I’m feeling so zen about how much I don’t want Sambas. As someone who watches a lot of older movies, to me they’re just associated with a 1970s skinny guy in a tracksuit with a bad haircut. I have my signature sneakers and they’re good buds.
A good way of recreating the red tights look would be with another color tights you already have. Start a new trend with your existing purple tights that you own while saving your money and not being embarrassed next year when red tights are “so 2023!”
I think part of why I dislike polka dots and ballet flats (on myself, anyway) is because I was big into the tumblr/twee fashion in the early 2010’s and those were wardrobe staples. There are certain tumblr fashion tends that I still really love, but twee just doesn’t do anything for me anymore.
I'm surprised that there aren't more varied examples of the red tights outfit, I never noticed how similar (but cute) most of the looks really are. I used to have a burgundy pair of tights that I would usually pair with other jewel tones, especially navy blue or green. I kinda wanna see some red tights paired with other primary colors!
your reasoning about denim maxis makes me realize part of why i like a lot of "modest" fashion: I wasn't forced to wear it growing up😬it might be a different story otherwise
I love tights (especially in cold weather), and I’ve found that burgundy and purple give me a lot more creative options than red could. I even had a phase of wearing hot pink tights in unexpected ways (like with a more “conventional” grey skirt) just for fun.
i noticed how diverse the sizes and races of the women in your reference pics were - a very small detail but much appreciated bc we are so used to seeing the same font of fashion influencers!
it's kinda funny because I looove nearly all those trends. I must admit that the ballet flats, denim skirts and narrow glasses emulate awkward-weird-middle-schooler energy. My first reaction was wholeheartedly "ewwww. :((" when I encountered those trends for the first time but it really grew on me. I think it's something about how those elements would be considered weird and would definitely get you bullied as a kid/teen. But they are actually interesting pieces that have the potential to be styled in a fun and stylish way and now I see that and can wear them however I want and not worry about being bullied because I'm a grown ass woman who knowwwws her fits are fire. It's free inner child therapy!
thank you!! healing trauma through fashion
Can confirm that ballet flats are very uncomfortable, and you can't run in them! Chunky boot gurls unite! 🤘
oh you can def run with them, just ask 7 year old me 😅I destroyed all of my flats as a kid
Can i joun the Club in ny chunky Mary janes?
As a former ballerina they are unconfortable nut i've already learnt to bear it lajdjwkdkwkek ahahahhaha and i can run in them lol
I agree with everything but the corporate core. it's my favourite style i love neutrals and dressier timeless pieces so i can wear them any day any time and it'll never really go "out of trend". I just like a dark monochrome bossy villain-girl look lmao
I don't wear glasses but I think the skinny glasses trend is cute because now that we're all grown and many people have found their true style, the skinny glasses are a cute add on bc it's that sexy librarian vibe. I heard this trend being called the Bayonetta glasses trend and I feel in love instantly! I won't participate bc I don't like having glasses on my face for long periods of time but I'm happy to see people who can embrace this trend.
I actually love polka dots, always have and probably always will. I think they're such a classic pattern.
Same!
Same, I've always liked them!
Same! I have a few polka dot dresses and they get worn all the time. I feel so classic and confident, even though my mum called me Minnie Mouse when she saw me in my red dress 😅😂
I feel this way about stripes… polka dots meh
THE SKINNY GLASSES I CAN'T WITH THEM 😭it vividly reminds me of the dorky girl in the fourth grade who actually ended up becoming my best friend BUT let me tell you, those glasses had a very short life. they also remind me of Needy from Jennifer's Body even though those weren't her exact glasses
A polka dot off-the-shoulder with a denim skirt, red tights, ballet flats, & those tiny glasses is the perfect y2k manic pixie dream girl outfit.
I have been wearing colourful/patterned tights consistently for 5+ years and I love styling my outfits around them, but for some reason only had one pair of wine-colored patterend tights in my collection. Now I have been reminded to finally get some plain red tights and I love them!! Nothing wrong with "buying into trends" if you know your style well enough
I also HATE neutral colored outfits. I don’t consider myself a quirky or even “happy” person but I just feel like I wanna d1e more when I wear all neutrals. Like I feel happier when I have on my favorite color ( blue like the sky on a sunny day) but neutral? NOOO WAYYY
Lmao I agree with you so much. I remember how painful ballet flats were when I was a teen. I felt every damn rock on the road. And they lost their looks sooooo quickly comparing to other pairs made of more solid materials.
Same with the skinny glasses - the models are obviously rocking these cuz they're hot. I wore these and looked like angry middle-age accountant 😀
💟 that you wore items representing the trend while explaining your reasoning 💟
i love long denim maxi skirts but i agree that the ones obviously made from pants are a little weird. unless it's with different colour fabrics/jeans and has a little more of a patchwork look and stuff doesn't lign up perfectly, then i love it. i love the red tights too, but in a more fun way like you said. the rest i 100% agree on
I always see the pants as well it was so funny she said that
As a taller girl, I find ballet flats to be a really chill summer shoe that I tend to wear in lieu of flip flops since I feel like I need to make my toes look good.
1000% agree with ballet flats. I have a high arch and I can’t imagine wearing something so close to the floor. Also, I used to wear ballet flats as a kid an I always thought they were the default dressing shoe. Now I hate them lol
hi!! So happy to have to here!❤ Sounds like you know exactly how to choose what you like that will work with your style--we love to see it. hope you enjoy the next one too!
Something that I learn at 25 is that sometimes is more about the quality rather than the quantity. And this is referring to all the trends that born almost every single month 😅 It’s hard to keep up so I just appreciate them in pinterest and then if it’s functional for me maybe I will buy it. ✨☺️
I am such a tights girl, a few years ago I bought a pair of red tights to pair with funky outfits and over the years I find myself reaching for them all the time! Little did I know that now they’re a trend?!!?
12:00 As far as thin glasses, I am in a similar boat to you, it screams early 2000's to me, and just seeing the frame in your vision at all times. I recently picked up two pairs of glasses, and they are both very similar. But what was important to me, was comfort, no metal digging in anywhere, and how it fit my eye shape and eye brows. I also have a square face, so I can't have tiny frames width wise, or it looks like an old grandpa with those tiny two circle nose glasses haha. So practically, and fashionably, I'm out. But hey, if you get new glasses every three months, it doesn't hurt to have one of every shape, size and colour for your wardrobe! I just get new ones every 2-5 years... so I focus on what looks good on me... and a little detail ;) I have one black/blue with a silver chain, and one brown/black with a gold chain link and swarovski crystals. So I can match my warm tone and cool tone outfits, AND jewellery with my glasses!
I can really relate to the sneakers thing. They all look basically the same to me and I can't understand why people care that much about a few detail changes, but I love fashion and can talk about subtly different necklines and their effect on an outfit for hours😂
Red tights are a YES for me. And I suggest Snag Tights for tights that actually fit, don't slouch, feel great all day, and last for many, many wears. You would look great in red tights and as someone who challenges herself to really think through an outfit, I'm sure you could come up with a creative way to style them.
Hell yeah for Snag! They have become my absolute go too and now I have too many .__.
All of my lighter color snag tights have torn, but the opaque colors are good
I have never understood why I can't make myself buy the denim maxi. I should like it, it fits my style perfectly. It's totally the catholic school teacher association, thank you!
I am likely older than your target audience, but I just love your approach to fashion. You hit on several of the trends I would not do again, and I consider myself much better off because of it. I hate clothing that falls off! as well as well that sort of clothing that always feels too cold or to hot when I wear it. I call these items dysfunctional clothing. I will never torture myself with shoes that flop off my feet and neck lines that make me shiver or sweat no matter the temp. add in the low rise pants that pop off my but when I sit down.
bahaha yesssss I love hearing your strong opinions it brings me endless joy 👹💕💕💕 (I also dislike polka dots 🙈)
hahaha I love that you love this Kathleen
Thank you so much for deinfluencing ballet flats. I HATE them. They were literally all I worse in like middle school because they were the only "nice" shoes I was able to wear because I was too young for heels. They sucked. They gave me blisters worse than docs on the first day of wear. They do NOT protect your feet from puddles and rain. My feet were always cold, dirty, and in pain. Andf don't even get me started on the elasticated ones that kind of form to your feet UGH
Omg THANK YOU for finally calling out the denim maxi skirt / religious upbringing connection!! 👏🏼 So true!!! I can’t get into it because it reminds me of Sunday school😭
A trend I'm definitely skipping is low rise. I've always been a high rise girlie, low rise is just not for me. 1. I'm short and pear shaped. I feel like low waisted stuff makes me look both shorter and wider at the hips, which I don't want. 2. I'm a big fan of vintage fashion, especially the 1930s-1960s period, and I try to incorporate elements from those eras into my wardrobe. High rise is essential for that vibe, low rise kills it. 3. Every time I see a low rise outfit on an influencer I think to myself I'd like it much better if it was high rise. Or if there's a video of the same outfit but styled with high-waisted vs. low-waisted bottoms, I always like the former better. 4. It's just uncomfy. I don't want to have to bend over and have my butt crack showing, that sounds like a nightmare!
I have found myself needing a mid-rise jean. High-rise is too uncomfortable when sitting and low-rise is a HELL NO! I already lived through that, I'll not going back.
What I’ve noticed tho is that while in the 2000s when I grew up low rise really was a pant starting barely above the crotch area while nowadays people wear either mid rise and call it low waist or wear super baggy pants Which would also fit higher if worn properly. Just a funny thing I noticed
@@sasamafrasssame
When low rise went out of style an entire 2 generations of women gave a HUGE ten thousand sighs of relief and we were so grateful for the daughters we haven’t had yet they they wouldn’t even have to wear low rise because it was THAT HORRIBLE and now all these teeny boppers have brought it back it’s literally a triple fold faint and almost die while laughing cringing about to puke moment WHO ever looked good in that I can only think of one actress from the 2000s and she ended up being a drug addict 😂😂😂
The torture we had all been put through we could literally go to therapy for I wish I was kidding if it wasn’t the muffin top bulge in 7th grade it was the 20 thongs you saw all day NOT FLATTERING AND UNCOMFORTABLE IS THE most apocalyptic fashion UNDERSTATEMENT of 3 decades

you are totally right about the denim skirt trend and the reasoning why you may love or hate it!!!! I absolutely LOVE IT because the religion I grew up in would never ever allow you to wear a maxi denim skirt because it would be considered too casual, we had to always wear like super formal clothing to church so to me it would have been rebellious to actually wear it to church 😂
Another religious trauma wound reopening heh (church's caring more about appearances than the actual messages). This coming from a pretty visibly modified girlie that prob wouldn't be accepted in the one I grew up in now. Talk about rebellious lolol.
Woowww thats crazy!! the religion I was raised in- women essentially only wore maxi & midi denim skirts to functions with bible school tees from the summer before. lol. but maxi length things in general trigger the heck out of me now in my 20s
I really like the idea that the video conveys like if you’re tempted to buy some of the trendy stuff, maybe you should take a step back and think whether you’re gonna use it at least 5 times or not. Something that we do so rarely nowadays!
I went through the opposite kind of shoe experience - i became obsessed with chunky loafers, but no matter how many i tried on, they just looked dumb on me! But i love seeing outfits where it works. It's tricky sometimes but being able to recognise the "love it but not for me" items saves so much time, heartache and money
Edit: omg the take on demin skirts is so correct and yet i didn't even realise i felt that way! Was exposed to a very similar thing being brought up in the church, and i also can't unsee the pants in the 'used to be pants skirt' 😵
Ballet pumps were the only kind of shoe i was feasibly allowed to wear in high school (Catholic boarding nightmares) and I had a visceral reaction to the mere suggestion that they're coming back in style 😭
I thrifted a denim skirt that fits like a mermaid skirt last year and i still look for any reason to wear it. I find balancing it out with more skin on top helps me out. And as for the skinny glasses, i always liked them when i was young and i think it had to do with a crush i had in middle school wore them
as a former dorky skinny glasses owner, the skinny glasses visceral response is so REAL i'm so glad it's not just me😭
i'd love to hear more of your thoughts on why we all seem to gravitate towards the same trends subconsciously, there must be some psychology or marketing genius behind it all and i need u to get to the bottom of it
As far as the skinny glasses trend goes, yes, I was also the geeky fifth grader wearing them. They were my first pair of glasses and yes I love wearing them again in my 20s. The association for me is less reclamation or nostalgia, but I think it's just the natural progression of fashion to slim down or bulk up in one direction or the other. After the 2010s style of huge-rimmed glasses, it was bound to happen. Also, sexy secretary/librarian is in, and man am I thankful that my bad eyesight is on trend, lol.
I so resonate with the red tights reasoning. I was going through my closet the other day and debating a sweater. I thought about ways I could style it and only could come up with two. For most items, I probably shouldn't keep them if I can't style them in multiple ways 🙌
Especially in winter, i really don't like people all wear neutral and black. I mean the weather is bad already, those colors just make it feel depressing
I love how you explain why you are passing on these trends because it "trains" an awareness for how to approach new trends that anyone can apply. For example, while you talked about Ballett flats, even though you don't like them, I realized that there are many reasons why I would prefer them to heavier shoes. I don't know, but I think it's very rare to come across someone who expresses their opinions so well and not polarizing.
To me the glasses give very strong- Y2K, femme fatale, mercenary, bond girl, bayonetta, ada wong or just in general the sexy girl in video games vibes. AND I LOVE THEM.
i can wear ballet flats without them killing my feet cuz i'm a wheelchair user 😎😎😎
thx for all the disability representation btw, i know that its hard to find w/ algorithms and everything, but i REALLY appreciate it!!! i love seeing stylish people like me in these different trends, especially cuz they often don't look the same when i'm seated (asymmetrical skirts for example)
you're the best!!!!!
xoxo,
citizen of beepworld
ok slay!!!!
truly this means so much to me to hear, thank you for taking the time to leave this comment:')
YOU'RE the best!!!
These glasses remind of that one vine with girl turning around with 'take on me' playing in the background 😅 Also that corporate style is reminding me of 2010's buisness casual and it's honestly kinda scary
omg, yes exactly to both of these points lmao
For me, the glasses give librarian, which I think is a vibe.
I love love love polka dots. They're cute, whimsical, a little retro. For me, an otherwise edgy or serious outfit is perfectly elevated by something with polka dots.
skinny glasses: theyre not for me but i think some ppl look cute in the ones with no frames or thin metal frames. the chunky plastic colored ones where you only have an inch of actual glass in the glasses… absolutely not
Right, the chunky ones do absolutely nothing for anyone’s face!!
I love this. For the past ten or so years, I have really been trying to focus on only buying clothing that will be my FAVORITE clothing. I have also never been a polka dot lover. Therefore, it is very unlikely that my FAVORITE skirt ever of all time will have polka dots. So even if I see a skirt with a shape and style i like, if it’s polka dots, I don’t get it. This mindset has really reduced the amount of churn my wardrobe sees. I buy way less, and also give away way less. When I’m buying new clothes it’s because something got worn out or stained.
i will never be able to unsee the denim maxi skirt jeans superimposition thing anymore
I LOVE THE VEGETABLE COMPARISON!! It makes so much sense honestly, creating an outfit is like cooking with recipes and formulas and things that work well and things that don’t but also we all have different taste. I’m obsessed with this and it defines me now.
If I ever got square space, it would be to make a beepworld fan page. (Not a weird one, it would just be about your awesome art and fashion takes and how you are very funny and smart and a meme.)
I am skipping any trend that requires me to by anything lol. I hate spending money.
As for corporate core, I am also not a fan. Neutrals can be fun, as shown by your Simone Rocha video, but that’s bc other elements of the outfit are whimsical and playful and interesting.
omg my ex wears slim glasses like that, now tell me why its so cathartic to hear you roast them hahahah
i feel the same way about the glasses i feel like if you even slightly remove them from the context of today's trends nobody can pull them off
😭 and ballet flats are cute but mary janes kinda give the same effect + theyre a bit more timeless
I'm a Gen Z who lives in corp core, minimalist, skinny jeans, circa 2016 black, navy and grey...and I love it. My wardrobe gives the default Ikea closet clothing display I shoplifted and took home.
I love how you've styled yourself for each topic of this video! Such care into the creation of your work. Thank you!! X
I wore ballet flats all throughout school and now i wonder if that's the reason my feet hurt so often. Definitely won't go back😂
Fully agree with you on all of these trends! The ballet flats and denim skirts just remind me too much of the things my mom forced me to wear as a forced-religious child growing up and i cant get behind them lol
Love your style takes and love how you change into an “example” outfit related to the trend you’re discussing ❤️
Love all these videos! Looking for the trends of our soul rather than the trends! I have to say though I love polka dots! My mum was always a polka dot lady and I think I have a have just inherited the polka dot gene! It’s a timeless one for me! ❤ I have to say I 100% agree with you on the ballet flats!
I used to think the exact same way about sneakers and I had never been a sneaker girl either (I'm not so much a sneaker person now either honestly) but my lifestyle has changed so much the last couple of years that I started to realize I needed truly comfortable shoes that let me walk everywhere since I don't own a car and need to be using public transport all the time. I was also never a stiletto or high heel person, but I feel like even 2-3 inch block heels were not cutting it for my lifestyle anymore, so I stick to medium chunky soles but with minor foot elevation these days, and honestly I can now see the appeal of sneakers. I'm still far from being a sneakerhead and I don't really go with the sneakers that are trendy, or at least I haven't done so because they are trendy, rather I just get the ones that I like and fit my style and lifestyle, but I think there's a case to be made for comfort when it comes to the sneaker trend.
personally I think I like the denim maxi skirt, mostly because it’s like…a dressier jean??? or an alternative to jeans, I can basically just take an jeans outfit that I like and switch the jeans out for the skirt, which is fun! but also I absolutely get what you’re saying about how some of them look like weird pants 😭 I thought I was the only one who couldn’t unsee the pant leg silhouette LMAO. luckily mine is solid denim so it doesn’t look like pant legs HAHAHA
Same I don’t own any jeans except jean shorts and denim maxi skirt and I’m super picky about my denim maxi gotta be solid
I’m legit sooo into every one of the trends you talked about! Super happy because I loathed the Y2K trends. Lol so funny how we all have our different opinions of trends
i love these videos because i have felt like this for Years, but this season i feel so represented by what's in style! i've been wearing bows, colorful tights, mixing corporate and fantasy for the last 7 years or so, so i feel like i'll just stay in fw23 style forever ahahaha
I couldn’t agree with you more on every single take here
omg I'm honored
I HATE POLKA DOTS!! they remind me of the 50s-retro trend of the early 2010s. even when theyre on something j would otherwise wear bc of the shape/color/cut of the garment polka dots make things unwearable for me
I think that association is what turns me against them too, lol! it would take a very particular version to get me on board I think
Omg thank you, I’m realizing that’s why I hate them too!! i just get twee flashbacks lmao
I love these anti-trend videos. Everyone needs them from time to time.
The denim skirt with an off shoulder too and ballet flats with the skinny glasses would be a good fit for the “styling trends I hate” thing. Add a blazer and the red leggings underneath and bam, most of these trends you dislike in one.
When it comes to sneakers, i'm a converse girlie till i die. They may not be currently trendy, but they're still a classic shoe in my opinion.
Regarding the red tights, I just find it strange that it's specifically red tights that are trending when any color of tights could be styled with the same neutral outfit.
I happen to already have a lot of different colored tights (including red) because i like doing 1960s mod looks sometimes, so i might give this trend a go just because but i wouldn't go out of my way to buy them if i didn't already have them.
Totally agree about the denim skirts!! No matter how cute the outfit is, a long denim or khaki skirt will never look like fashion to me, it will only ever look like "my religious denomination requires me to Be Modest and cover my legs up". 🙃🙃🙃
I'm surprised that tights are in fashion for similar reasons? In my childhood tights were churchwear, my Grandma put me in them with a cute dress for church and that was the only time I wore them. I remember trying to wear tights to school bc I wanted to wear a skirt and it was cold! and the tights got made fun of. 🙃
As a ballet flat lover (i literally own them in every color) with flat feat .they actually are more comfy (especially if they fit you well) than youd expect
I actually love the colourful tights trend. Maybe exactly because of the reason you don’t like, it’s an easy way to make a simple outfit more interesting
skinny glasses are the worst trend ever. it’s giving insurance covered frames 😭
This the funniest comment in this comment section 😂
tbh i love the sambas sneakers and have wanted to thrift them for a long time. the same year that i finally got myself a pair they started trending - i was so mad lol! my love for these shoes stemmed from the fact that my grandfather used to wear them all the time and i always adored how absolutely uncool they were. i wanted to emulate my grandpa's style, and suddenly they're supposed to make me trendy? so to answer your question - i love these shoes, ive already worn them to death, but to me they are very much associated with central and eastern europe senior citizens - and thats why i love them lol.
Great point about being mindful about what YOU like when picking out a sneaker. I like the style of Converse One Stars because they have that vintage look, look good in fun colors (I have mustard ones), and have that cute star cutout on the side
Also, agree about the tiny glasses- I had those as a nerdy kid and ho boy! Not a good look. Aesthetically I don’t like them because they make your eyes look smaller, and your face wider which is something I find unflattering. When “hipster” glasses came into style it was a revelation bcs you could actually see your eyes while wearing glasses!
Ive had my red tights for years and theyre my fave way to be jazzy during the winter time for xmas and valentines day
Please try style trends you hate! Challenges always seem to push you into a whole new creative gear
yes! Please do this video.
The trend I am sick of and I will absolutely never wear is these damn Birkenstock shoes, the ones that look like grandpa slippers... sorry not sorry! These will always look atrocious to me. Especially worn with socks. You do you, though!
grandma huaraches so true (I just call them this for some reason)
A lot of these trends remind me of trends that were circulating around 2017/18. Polka dots, off the shoulder tops, and red were things I was obsessed with those years
I love an off the shoulder top below a cute dress or pinafore! I mainly use them for layering.
“Corp-core” looks so boring and uninspired. It’s like anti fashion. It’s like a uniform in a world where people aren’t allowed to express themselves
your anti-hauls help me so much!!! i really try to focus on only buying pieces that i know i'll rewear over n over again. i like these anti hauls cos we can appreciate trends without buying them, and we dont have to worry about our closets piling up
the red tights outfit is very much giving the black mock neck and brown suede button up skirt outfit that everybody collectively decided was their thanksgiving outfit a few years ago
I love onitsukas. My dad got me a pair 4 years ago and they’re still sturdy as hell. Wore them every day for a trip to Japan once and the cushioned soles helped with all the walking.
i love the look of off the shoulder tops and was really tempted to buy one but youve made me reaksje they are completely impractical for where i live and how i move around so youve saved me a few quid x
Just wanted to say how cool (and refreshing) it is to see a wide variety of body shapes, and aesthetic styles when you go through these trends ❤
To me, the skinny glasses have a smart, mysterious, powerful vibe to it which is probably connected to the character bayonetta who people have started naming the glasses after
Love the diversity in the inspo photos!
