this is so refreshing since back to school season is bringing so much consumerism
Don’t forget to thrift to have a completely ethical and unique school wardrobe 👍🏻 Best way to avoid fast fashion/high demand consumerism
Loved the succinct comments on quiet luxury. I also have an association with conservatism and cowboy boots and I don't want to wear them. Low rise pants are a NO for me because I despise clothing that requires me to constantly worry about exposing myself if I move. I spent way too much of my life already yanking my pants up
I really want a pair of all black cowboy boots but only because I'm from west Texas and I think the juxtaposition between the conservative Texan look and a more counter culture style would be fun.
I like cowboy boots with jean mini skirts and also just under wide leg jeans, as someone who isn't conservative at all.
I remember when fabric roses were inescapable in 2005. Also, i definitely remember getting those plastic pendant necklaces out of vending machines as a kid.
@beepwrld You didn't miss anything there! I had a poncho, skirt, and purse from target that all had big floppy roses on them. I thought it was peak fashion at 15. They were on a lot of dresses, too. it may have been more for prom/school dance wear.
As a pink loving girly girl I loooooove the Barbiecore trend! 😍 I agree about Y2K though. What I think is a pitty is, that while Y2K fashion is trending Y2K make up is not. I think the frosted colours look so much more interesting than the clean girl make up! It's hard to find metallic and flamboyend eyeshadows, you mostly get nude tones. At least here in Germany.
@@beepwrld I hope so! 😭
I agree y2k and 90s makeup is so pretty to me. Ive been wearing it this summer and gotten lots of compliments. 😊
I've gotten so many compliments this summer on my 90s makeup!
We need to work hard to bring it back! We'll just spare our poor eyebrows this time.
I love how respectful you are of people who love trends you don’t and even include photos of people who are owning the look! It is refreshing to hear someone so in tune with their own style and what works for them and their lifestyle without knocking anyone else’s.
Also, I totally agree about the feeling naked thing! Even when I’m taking awesome care of myself and feeling super body confident, I don’t like being overly exposed and the vulnerability that comes with it.
The whole suburban conservative republican cosplaying as farmers was a huge reason i was very emo/ goth in hs lol also maybe the reason i love mixing the hunter camo with girly femme styling. It feels like a gut punch towards school bullies that hated us emos (you know the ones).
@@beepwrld exactly. We know how some people would loose their F'n mind if you "dressed up" camo aka their whole personality they'd treat it as blasphemous🙄 and I'm over here just being a girly pop silly goose experimenting with style 🤪
I love that! I grew up in this same vibe and was also very emo and have a long-time grudge against camo/cowboy boots for this reason, but absolutely love people going super camp with these elements. Would absolutely love some big, gay cowboy boots and bedazzled camo to strut around in.
Used to be emo/grunge in high school, now I’m into vintage ranch wear. Crazy turn but I’m happy where I was/am in both places.
@@kaitlyn8853yess I used to be emo/grunge in high school as well and now I am very gay and one thing I'm very much in to is fashionable cowboy aesthetic. I loved the cowboy in the new Wes Anderson movie 😍😎
The way you feel about the cowboy boots is exactly how I feel about the longer jeans skirts that are or were trending lately. Absolutely stunning on other people, but reminds me of my upbringing in a strict church, and I just can't get past the feeling this memory gives me
Oh yes, I just get too many pentecostal vibes from the denim maxis. I can't imagine anyone with religious trauma is hopping on that trend.
Those skirts feel like a personal attack to me hahahaha I would feel so sorry for the Pentecostal girls wearing that shit in 90 degree Caribbean heat. Weren’t even allowed to comb their hair too much cuz it was”vanity” yikes
Those denim maxi skirts just look heavy and hard to move in. I guess in all lengths now that I think about it. But, just to get into upcycling I have thought about turning a pair of pants into a denim skirt to see how it goes
@@sarahkinsey5434 I've done that with shorts before, but never with pants. I hope it works out!
Omg yes! I can see the church vibes but I was a 90’s teenager and they are skirts my friends mums wore. Definitely a middle aged woman vibe.
the trend I’m skipping on is ballet flats. these coming back is my personal vietnam ❤
How do people not get blisters from them? I've never come across a pair that doesn't obliterate my Achilles tendon.
fr I only wear shoes with arch support now I don't need to look shorter
The neck rosettes are a favourite of mine alongside every other playful neck jewellery that doesn’t stick to the common formula of necklaces . I think they’re playful and flirty and add a romantic goth element to outfits precisely because they’re fabric flowers that reference the ruching and skirt decorations found in that style + other Lolita Styles. It also reminds me of 1990s Bluemarine campaigns which featured the neck rosettes for that very sultry, flirty element and seemed to reference lingerie and the bedroom a lot, seeing as Nicola Brogano is trying to revive that type of girly aesthetic and due to that, bluemarines popularity has risen dramatically + the recent “dark feminine” trend, I’m not surprised there’s a huge love for the neck rosettes and every other frilled/laced element that goes hand in hand with them
I think also there’s a need for an elegance that isn’t so minimalistic and refined but more dramatic and sexy referencing the more sensual examples of that found in the 20s and again brought a back in the 90s, which is where the large pendants and string are coming from and I believe they’re actually usually made of glass but I can see why someone would confuse them for plastic
They're tacky and if you want to look bad no one is stopping you of course
@@nadias6435 what an uncalled for thing for you to say
I think things like the rosettes are something that if it matches your style (not trends- your style, its different) it can look so cool and so specific and personal. That's the kind of thing that people look at you and go wow- she is so stylish and at home in her own skin. If it's not you, it looks uncomfortable and itchy and trendy and you feel silly and not quite right. It takes time and knowing yourself to look at the trends and figure out what is for you, and what isn't. I think very few things are universally "tacky" and tacky also I find is not that useful of a word. Usually its code for cheap, which is something that can be done to any kind of trend, or its classist/racist, but trying to disguise itself. Or its code for maximalist, which is of course not a style that is for everyone. But it's not inherently lesser just because there's more elements.
Honestly there has been a billion trends/aesthetics going on. At this point my aesthetic is the clothes that I have in my closet. I find that working with what I have and pieces that I love make the best outfits for me. If it happens to fit a certain aesthetic great if not that’s chill too 😂😂
I think pendant necklaces can be so cool and show so much personality - they can be easy to make or thrift (think entry-level ceramics, finding cool stones or beads or small antiques and putting them on whatever chain or cord you have laying around).
the plastic disposable ones unfortunately miss on the personality/uniqueness front and just put more plastic into the world, though. hope we see some more flexibility with how these are coming back and more people engage with this trend in a thoughtful way
fr i honestly own 1 or two black cords and just insert one of my several chunky glass beads based on my outfit instead of owning several necklaces.
i just have to say THANK U SO MUCH for showing trends with ALL BODY TYPES! it was so refreshing and nice and lovely how you inserted the pics with all kinds of bodys and people?!! i rarely see trends like low rise jeans and or 2000s girly girl stuff on bigger (well i'd prefer to call them normal) bodys!!!
THANK U FOR THAT!!!
As someone allergic to metal I think the string and plastic necklaces were something I tended to wear when I was younger because of that allergy.
Now I’ve found jewelry in different materials that isn’t metal or will wear bandannas or bolo necklaces but I can get why that is something that is trending. The options for non-metal jewelry can feel fairly limited when you’re first searching.
@@amandak.4246 mainly just metals on jewelry particularly necklaces I haven’t had as many issues with nickel free earrings but I don’t wear any metal necklaces. It’s mainly direct contact of metal on my skin which doesn’t come up much aside from jewelry in my life.
As a curvy girl, I really hated wearing low rise pants and at the time there were no other options available in stores. 😢
The only "old money" look i still really like is 80's preppy. And its kind of the vintage 80s vibe i think i like.
YES re your take on quiet luxury... I would never want to accuse anyone who dresses minimally of trying to look like a colonialist a-hole, but the ethos of going whole-hog "I paid $10,000 for each and every one of my plain white shirts" is based on the kind of snobbery we should be discouraging in this day and age. But dude, as an aside... Lego flowers fill a hole for those of us who can't keep plants alive or have cats who crave the toxic deliciousness of actual flowers 😂😅
oh god those string necklaces and flower chokers brought me flashbacks of the suede strings I used to own in different colors and wear around my neck EVERY SINGLE DAY from the age of 8 to 10. It's so bizarre to me that these kind of things (which were just a relatively short lived trend as well, back in the day) come back in style now. Also, it makes me feel old lol.
Ive turned 55 this year and I have had pink hair for the last month, so Im growing old disgracefully. Tho I love pink I now cannot unsee that my furry duster coat (that is bright pink ) made me look like a giant tongue walking about. Ruined. PS, Well done on 39,5k Subs!
Ayyy, club 55!!! 🙌🏻
@@au_barb Hi there! :)
The quiet luxury style is my vibe… for sure not because of the money/status factor but because it’s minimal and as you said classic. I also have to show up at the office every day and having almost a uniform helps my mornings go fast. I just make things fun with a pop of color in my accessories 😅❤
Nooooooooo the rosettes are so cute! Also the skill in fabric manipulation that it takes to create them just scratches that artist itch and appreciation for textiles
Love the anti-haul! It's so nice to just acknowledge, eh this doesn't work for me (looking at you low rise pants) and move on! Thanks for the encouragement to be true to myself!
rosette chokers have me in a chokeHOLD i love the vibe
i must agree somenof the references you picked didnt look that amazing but theres looks where i think they can work really well
Love your commentary on the quiet luxury trend, I agree! Also amen sister with the jorts, I caaaaant! Haha
Agree on the rosette choker!
And I'm also quite inline with your thoughts on old money etc. trends! For me they also seem like "cosplaying and adult" and look to serious and unimaginative, if it makes any sense x) being close to my 30s I don't really feel adult enough for wearing these styles))
My take with the pendant necklaces is I like leather cords a lot. It definitely works better for certain aesthetic sensibilities than others but I think a leather cord with a stone or metal pendant is a great look. I have a double venus necklace like that and I love it.
I think it's also important to mention that some of these trends have a much higher consumer base in certain countries over others! Cowboy boots never really became a trend where I'm from, (you see a person wear them here and there, but certainly not enough to classify them as trendy), I associate them with the US much more.
Low-rise jeans, on the other hand, are all I see younger people wear nowadays. It's interesting to see what comes to other countries and what doesn't (and this is often filtered through what fast fashion brands makes easily available, too).
The neck rosette thing is so silly to me! It reminds me of my 8th grade dance in 2010/2011, I wore a huge bedazzled silver rose necklace that weighed five pounds and looked absolutely bonkers. I think it's cute in like a cartoon character design type way, but seems super impractical. And I also will never stop wearing high-rise pants! I'm so short and need all the help I can get. I would maybe try mid-rise to elongate my torso a little bit, but low rise?? No way.
Girly, preppy, modern and pink literally describes 50% of what I tend to wear🤣 Good thing we are all so different💗🔥 Great vid!
agree abt the quiet luxury thing! it's an ick to me when people are trying so hard to pretend to be something they're not and as u said, why would you want to aspire to be a part of that kind of institution 🤨 looking classic is one thing but leaning into the whole old money aesthetic is another
I have been loving getting back into pink/in touch with my more feminine side, but I have found I like more muted or understated pinks, and I like pairing it with my normal grungy/goth/punk type clothes. I feel so uncomfortable if I look too classically feminine, but it's been really fun to add a bit of cuteness to round out my look.
I think this video was very informative about addictive fashion trends and how it’s actually a lot more harder sticking to your own personal style nowadays with new makeup/fashion trends coming out what it feels like weekly! But what i’m trying to say basically haha is that i’m taking this away with me whenever scrolling through fashiontok or what i see everyone else is wearing i’m going to truly as myself “do i like this for myself??”
Thank you for representing short legged peeps. I’m a high waisted clothing girl through and through. I don’t consider myself a trendy dresser but one trend I like has been the underwear as clothes like corsets and longline bras (not the knickers) but also just lace details and camisoles. It’s always been something I’ve done and I’ve been buying a few things to add to my wardrobe while they’re in to wear long into the future.
Aside from the jorts, I'm skipping all of these too. Your commentary on these trends is spot on for me as well. I'm just doing the longer jorts thing because they're super comfortable and thrifted men's shorts are cheap and accessible. I'm personally not too bothered on how they look on me. I'm 5'9" though, maybe that helps? Ehh, I'm basically just wearing them to the grocery store so idc. 😂
Great video as always, Beeps! ❤
So glad you brought up your discomfort around the aspirations for the old money aesthetic - I feel like I've seen no critique of it at all. The super rich have never and will never gain their wealth ethically, even the new money of today gain their billions through exploiting factory workers, destroying the environment etc. Why are we aspiring and celebrating this?
I’m sooooo excited for low rise pants to come back!!! High rise pants HURT!
you’re so right about the “stealth wealth” trend
personally i like the rosette but agree with everything on this list! haha for me the high rise low rise trend taught me what looks best on me is mid rise (it lengthens my legs without removing too much of my short torso) I guess it'll never be trendy but I love it
thank you for your thoughts on the rosette choker... i keep seeing people talk about how great they are but it's always looked silly to me and uncomfortable?
frrr like it's not flattering at all (not saying all fashion has to be 'flattering' but still.. people will def look back on it and laugh)
I'd really recommend season 2 of Articles of Interest to learn more about the preppy style! It's a fantastic dive into the history of fashion
lol so many of these apart from the barbiecore trend i genuinely do love and have had elements of in my wardrobe before the trend cycle, that seeing them become trendy made me kinda believe they were universally liked to an extent, this video was an interesting insight into subjectivity. the glass pendants i believe feed into the mermaidcore trend too, which is why they're so rudimentary, like a sort of lost chunk of sea glass tied around a net string
Man, both the rosette choker and chunky necklace took me back to middle school (mid-00s). But the big flower chockers were definitely a steam punk thing at the time.
at the end of the day most of the time you should be dressing to your own body and needs! low rise pants help me elongate my body as I am ALL leg and no torso, I wore high waisted for so long because it was all I could find trend wise and in stores (because it was the trend yk) and I only realized until recently that my body looks and feels so much better in low rise pants and shorts. I blame absolutely nobody for being the opposite because whatever makes you feel confident is what you should be wearing. no matter what.
I pretty much agree with everything -- I hate underwear as outerwear. I don't like plastic jewelry, and the flower at the neck is not good if it's big. Maybe a really small one would work. I also agree with you about low-rise pants. I also have short legs and always go for high rise pants.
Your take on old money = BASED
My mom has a bunch of those kind of pendant necklaces, but they're stone pendants with a leather string. They really last a long time if you just buy high quality ones and I like that they're a little more edgy than gold or silver necklaces.
We need to be more comfortable as a society calling clothing and outfits ugly, because that’s what most of these trends are, plain hideous and no one can seem to just say it
well being real people wear it because they genuinely like it, there's no one singular truth on whether something is ugly or not in fashion. if you find it ugly, that's fine! but it's wrong to assume everyone is just pretending to like it just because you personally don't
Okay, at first I thought the same thing about the heart statement necklace, but I bought one, and it has been an absolute staple for me!
it gives off that “I bought this necklace at a gas station/smoke shop in the 90s” vibe, but that’s just me lolol. Loved the video! 💓
I always love your commentary's so much. Its kind of funny how we have very different styles but also very similar views on current fashion trends. the only one i'm have been tempted to try on is the longer baggy shorts
Love this concept. Being in my late 20s, I'm really struggling to get on these kinda trends. I want to be stylish, but I just can't NOT see them as super unfashionable since I grew up seeing celebs wearing all this stuff in like (my country's equivalent to) seventeen magazine.
Something that has been bothering me about the Barbie trend is that she doesn’t just wear pink, she is also the queen of blues and purples! Adding those colors to the trend would really make it more accessible and switch up the look as well as invoke the early 2000 fantasy Barbie movies🪸❄️🦄💫
With the rosette thing- I think that only works if you've already got a solid romantic vibe going. If you're not really into silk, lace, jewel tones, smokey eye, etc., it doesn't really work.
I agree with this!! I think it can work in the right specific context but alas the trend does not seem to consider the context of the rest of the outfit
Another amazing video! I love how you show an alternative to consumerism and do it in such a classy way.
I agree with you on each and every one of those trends and styles! I'm opting out of all of them as well for pretty much the same reasons as you mentioned in this video.
totally agree about the quiet luxury trend + you articulated it so well!! thanks for putting this into words!
another absolute hit!!! love these thinking critically abt trends & consumerism videos 🥰
those chunky pendants look cheap.... because most of them are, and that's the good thing about them! i also really like string-necklaces, i feel like chains and metals are just more prone to breaking and getting discolored or leaving a mark on your skin, so personally this is a trend i didn't even know about but has been unknowingly participating in all my life! i don't wanna look expensive, i wanna look cute.
i love that every five seconds you make sure we know that you aren't judging us it makes me feel better about my choices even though I agree with most if not all of your opinions :)
This was such an interesting video! I agree with so much! The quiet luxury point was an insight that I hadn't considered before, I may not agree with it but still great food for thought! Also your hairstyle is so cute here! Thank you for this video, God bless!
Heyyyy, I just came across your channel and had to mention this. I LOVE that the photos you include are girls of many different sizes and ethnicities - its so refreshing to see your body represented in trend videos!! I'm so used to seeing slim, fit Pinterest girls (no issue at all if you are one of them), but seeing a diversity really made me smile today - THANK YOU
yessss we need more deinfluencing thank you!
I love all your takes! Y2K generally isn’t a huge fav for me either but I do love the Y2K Spy fashion! I’ve been rewatching Alias and that vibe is so cool to me. I wouldn’t mind that sub genre coming back in fashion
i also have short legs and thank you so much for speaking about how many clothes may not be flattering at all. it’s a struggle when you see a lot of tall and thin models with giant legs !
Sending you lots of love and support from Australia. I get so happy when I see you’ve posted a new video ❤ keep being your wonderful self x
same!! 🇦🇺
I think you're right about the plastic charm necklaces. I ended up caving and getting one from the thrift store but I made sure to get a metal heart and metal chain so its more duarble and looks cuter 😊
loved this video! i admire the concept of not giving into consumerism and opting to dress for urself rather than following microtrends ♡♡
The chunky bead necklaces are often made of glass not plastic unless they are bought from fast fashion brands
I find that this season a lot of these trends are things I have ALWAYS loved. I’m girly and already own a lot of this stuff like clothing with fabric roses or pink or mini skirts. I’m happy to say I can participate without buying anything new !!!
Also I feel you on the cowboy boots, we are from similar communities (rural Wisconsin) and everything you said was SPOT ON. I think the main reason I don’t wear them is because they feel like something only worn by farmers where I am from and I am not a farmer so it just feels so wrong haha.
agreed with so many of your takes here and just wanna say that girl your hair in this video looks SO damn good
I have a ceramic glazed necklace on cord that a family friend made for me (she sold them) back in high school (grad 2012) and it’s been so fun to pull that back out and style it!! I will keep wearing it after the trend is over because it has sentimental value and it’s a plain circle so I think it’s a bit more timeless.
I love the pictures you chose to support your expressions
Just wanna thank you for the amount of body diversity in the example pictures you use, love to see it!❤
Well enjoy because the rest of us don't love to see fatties and normalizing unhealthy bodies shouldn't be a trend either.
felt you SO hard on the jorts even though i technically have the “””right””” body proportions for it, simply not happening lmao. also really appreciated the quiet luxury part, that’s exactly what’s been annoying me about it!!!
Love the anti haul and how you were so respectful on everything.. I personally like the flower chokers but I also dislike the cowboy boots and some of the other things you mentioned 😭
the barbie/full on pink/girly trend has me so worried that maybe my fashion sense is outdated. thank u for confirming that im not the only one and im actually sane 😭
Agree on the cowboy boots!! I think they look extremely cool on others but I just cannot get into them! They’re a huge no thank you for me personally. But I strongly believe that any piece can look incredible on anyone as long as you love it and wear it proudly !!
Thank you for the comments on old wealth!
I completely agree with the neck flower!! I think sometimes it can work but overall it tends to just look a bit silly
in retrospect (since the season is over and my eyes are clearer now)
as a preface, I'm someone who values quality and fit over quantity, i think almost anything can look good as long as it fits you (in terms of size and style), whereas bad quality materials will always cheapen an outfit and make it look bad. i only look for clothes two or three times a year and pick clothes that are well made and fit my style and body. I dont need many statement pieces but in terms of patterns i love lace, I'm a proud outfit repeater hahaha i just want to evoke the look of thrown-together simplicity and comfort
1. never liked them - to me jorts always look photoshopped on for some reason xD zero movement and that's not rly my thing
2. never liked them - no comment on quiet luxury, I agree with what you said, and it clashes with what i like
3. never liked them - do we ever consider the fact that barbie was just one long ad
4. never liked them - if I cover/crop out the rosette choker in every single outfit, the outfit still looks good lol if anything it just cheapens the look of the outfit. on myself, i think it would just look ugly xD i completely hear you about the fake flower thing too
5. considered it for a brief moment - but then it reminded me of the stuff i would see in kids stores when i was 6 or 7 and beg my mom to buy, just looks too fake and 7:17 this is ENTIRELY too big
6. never - the bloomers are just too coquette adjacent
7. thought about it tbh - it just doesn't look good, also pulling up my pants every single time issa nooooo
8. not really - dont like how impersonal they look, i dont want to cosplay as paris hilton, i like the sincerity of the 2000s, not the glitz and glam and uhhh opulence
9. never - i would get regular boots
10. never - i CANNOT
I enjoy the Old Money aesthetic but I agree that the ideal is problematic. I agree on many of the trends though. Don’t like many recent trends. I don’t dress based on trends, I dress for my personal style, which tends towards being sort of bohemian meets preppy meets light academia meets pastels meets classic menswear meets…
I’m bad at describing my style. I also love anything Victorian. I don’t have strong feelings on the chunky necklaces though.
I hate low rise pants though. I think they look hideous. That’s my own personal choice though. I think high waisted pants are more flattering
I so agree about the oversized rosette looking of!
i am also a rural-ish wisconsinite & definitely can relate to associating western/cowboy boot style with some of the yee yee principles that my hometown community generally holds. it feels kinda strange to see urbanite influencers wear them instead of the misogynistic, tobacco chewing guys i went to high school with...lmao.
This video is a comprehensive list of all the things I was more than happy to leave way way behind in my middle/ high school days.
I'm a little confused about the old money trend, because here I'm seeing trendier silhouettes in beige, and that doesn't match my perception of how the wealthy dress. But having an "elegant" appearance absolutley improves the way you are treated, that's for sure.
Bringing similar cowboy boots baggage even though I grew up in very stereotypical Chicago suburbs
Totally with you on the shorts and low-rise as well, being a short person myself.
I enjoyed the Barbie movie as well and have been living the whole hype this summer, mainly with this one particular remix of Barbie Girl in the local nightclub dancing my butt off with friends. We did have a babie theme once though, with everyone having an assigned colour. That was so much fun!! I do also associate barbie with the y2k girly girl styles, because that was when I had my own dolls. And oh boy, do I love me some miniskirt and little top combinations :DD
I still look back at the early 2000s rosettes with a fond laughter, so that trend is a pass. Same with all the others you mention here, apart from all that super feminine stuff. The whole ''girly is bad'' attitude from back in the days has gotten me to embrace the sides of me that just want to look like I am a princess from magic land where trees are candy floss and the sky is all different shades of pastel~
I feel the EXACT same about cowboys boots. Plus it’s why I have a huge aversion to camo print.
When you showed the solid perspex heart I had a flash back to the 1970s when everyone had these, worn a little longer on a black cord. Same with cowboy boot like footwear. In the late 1970ies / early 1980s. The one we wore in my European hometown had no decorative stitching, just the shape of the heel and the straps. Very weird… I may look at trends in colours that are suddenly everywhere, but I only pick them if they flatter me and I like them.
re: low rise pants
also props the people who have the anatomy/build that allows these pants to stay up...at all. my sacral/lower back area is too jacked up to keep my spine or low rise pants in place 😅
i love the pendant necklaces and lego flowers lol. i thrift vases to display my lego bouquets :3
this made me so happy. you just seem so genuinely nice! also ty for not promoting tf out of hyperconsumerism
After you point 2 i followed! Totallyyyyyyyyyyy agree!!
While I agree that the rosette necklace looks very weird and silly, I fully disagree about the legos. They're very cute and a lot more budget friendly than buying flowers every week. The issue with flowers too is that they exploit labour (often times the labour of minorities and immigrants) and they're absolutely awful for the environment! I like that you mentioned fabric flowers that look more like the real deal, dried or preserved flowers are also a great alternative if you don't like the look of the lego ones but I'd definitely not go for real ones if sustainability is important to you as you say.
I feel completely the same about the Barbiecore! I just adore the vibrant pink and I've been willing to participate in this trend as it's so fun, but for some reason I own only one pink bag, and that's it. I really feel a bit sad about it, lol))
The micro shorts/no pants feel quite hard to properly pull off for me too, but I seem to be getting more and more into it. I'm thinking maybe styling this trend with some huge bulky layer like an oversized jacket can help me with feeling insecure, so I'd probably give it a try, especially keeping in mind how easy it is to thrift this type of shorts :)
I was a preteen back then when rosette chockers and huge glass and plastic pendants were popular 😢 now the fake flowers look silly, but I love the glass pendants, I think I got some stashed away from that time, well time to take them out!
Not the rural Wisconsin suburb😭 felt girl
No! I love my silver plastic heart necklace! I would love to get one made out of metal lol
i love low rise pants and the whole y2k style!! but like in a rock n roll way >:-)
I love the Lego flower sets my dad buys them for my mom because she loves legosets and he always buys her flowers. Love the video btw
As a Texan, cowboy boots are really a staple for concerts, bars, and country dance halls but not everyday wear
I love these kinds of videos, personally I love baggy jorts and low rise tho :)
