About the unif boots.. I have a rule that I learnt the hard way: Do not buy shoes from a clothing brand. Making pretty shoes is one thing but making comfortable shoes is the whole other level and I’m yet to learn about a clothing brand that makes comfy shoes. (I guess I’m not talking about sports brands)
Pull & Bear and Bershka have some very comfy boots, and another bunch of decent shoes fr, my fave pair of boots is from P&B and they're still holding up after 2 ish years
yes!! maybe it’s not a real rule but in my head shoes shops and clothing shop are and have to be 2 different things
Especially designer brands! They're made to fit a look and not for comfort. I've resold every designer shoe I've ever got my hand on 😢
Okay wow, checking Poshmark for how a piece holds up is such a good tip and something I’ve not thought about before. I usually just search them when I’m wanting to purchase.
+70 dollars for a simple black polyester dress seems crazy to me. I've seen so many similar black dresses 2nd hand and made with natural fibers for much cheaper.
I love that camo has become a trend, It's been a staple in my wardrobe for over 20 years. This just means in about 3-6 months I will be able to find new-to-me pieces at the thrift.
I love camo too
I think Alexa had some really great advice, but I'd like to add another tip to the person considering camo print pants. The girl in the inspiration photo looked amazing. And I completely understand wanting to emulate the outfit. But I think anyone wanting to copy an outfit should ask themselves do they actually like the separate items of the outfit or do they like the silhouette? A person could totally re-create that camo outfit in the same silhouette pants but in a color or print that they already know that they like.
Talk all you want Alexa. You don’t need to apologize for being you anymore. If people don’t like you and your channel for being authentically you they shouldn’t be here anyway. Love all of your videos, especially the super chatty ones 🧡💜❤️
It’s insane to me that people comment things like that. Like, no one is forcing you to watch Alexa’s videos??? You chose to be here and you can choose not to watch it if you think she talks too much?? Like what???? But yes, talk all you want, Alexa. The people who want to be here will continue to watch and the people who don’t can literally just leave???
I laughed so hard at the beginning because I asked about the Unif Parker boot 😂😂😂 good to know your immediate opinion! 😂 😂 😂 😂
The Coogi sweater a serious classic. Very popular in the 90’s when I was in my teens… I was 20 in 1999 - think Notorious BIG and Bill Cosby. FYI the pronunciation is Coo-Gee. The last syllable sounds like big G. Love the channel.
I love the Sambas because they have black, white, gray, and brown on them so you can match them with so many colors! Fortunately, I found mine in a bin that my sister was planning to donate… BRAND NEW! She got them years ago because she just thought they were a cool shoe and $20 at the outlets 😅
The dark blonde looks so good on you, it’s making me even more excited for my own natural colour to grow out
I'm addicted to the boop in your intro song. I always have to say "boop!" out loud when it plays.
💘💘💘
Even me 😂
So does my boyfriend 😂
I think of detachable collars kind of like necklaces, as an accessory rather than an item of clothing
I think of them like capes lmao
But not in a bad way & I agree
you can marinate tofu, mushrooms, etc.
True true true!!!!!!
I know layering is not only for style but for practical reasons, but I love the one-and-done pieces the most on a daily basis. So I'm with you on the collar thing, still it's cool for days when you want to dress up nicely and take time to do that.
Hearing about the gaping in reformation tops for smaller chests was interesting! I am a D cup size and I always feel like they’re too small, and I figured if I had a smaller chest it would fit better, but now I’m thinking that’s not even the case!
The thing about detachable collars are that they shift because there's nothing holding it down, I like the kind that has straps at the armpit, so your not wearing a full pice of clothing under and it doesn't shift.. it indeed is for someone who would want to put effort on that area of dressing 😅 it's easy to forget that you have it when it's tugged somewhere you don't look at
PLEASE do another one i love this sm!! (and also want to see your take on my piece haha)
I actually Thrifted A Coogi sweater and matching dress, always get compliments on them. Oh plus a matching skull cap/beanie
Loveeeee the fit and the hair, the red is so stunning on you
Omg yeah you’re so right about UNIF items! I got the Trinity boots from them, and they’re totally expensive too, and they started falling apart on maybe the 10th wear. I still wear them even though they’re falling apart but they’ve been like that for so long now! Makes me feel like UNIF is just fast fashion too
I could so relate to the Samba inquiry - I didn't really like them before they became trendy but the more I saw them the more I liked them, especially in the clean black and white design, it's actually quite elegant. But I also don't want to wear sth that is so ubiquitious everywhere... So I caved and ordered a pair in a colorway that looks a little bit different (grey/black), if they are super comfortable I might keep them after all.
Ohh I love this concept. My impulsive self needs this type of advice. 😅
The only style that is timeless is personal style 😊
i love my sambas, i have the black and white ones and i feel like they go with nearly everything! they're also very comfortable!!
Guessing from second hand examples how a garment will hold up is a great tip. I’m also a lover of blue toile prints. Mine is a thrifted Free People top I pull out every couple of years and enjoy until the trends move on. And Adidas of any stripe have never fit my feet comfortably! The pain is real! Buy only what you can actually walk in. Fun take on what not to buy!
I love my medium crescent bag and my reusable bags, theyre so durable and easy to carry around! I totally agree about the compartments in the purses, I am digging through it to find stuff ALL the time
For sneakers, I have been a vans person for so long, and now they have so many options that I just live for them.... I cannot imagine wearing the stripes, I've gotten into Nike (very specific styles) but "skater" shoes are my staple for casual sneakers, recommended 100%
We love how much you talk!!!
I own the Parker Boots and I totally recommend insoles! I put some in mine and I have been able to wear them for hours :) Hope that helps!
I own the Baggu medium crescent bag and truly it's my favorite bag I've ever owned. I took it with me on a trip to Charleston and packed a camera, 32 oz water bottle, keys, wallet, lip gloss, phone, extra batteries and portable charger in there and it all fit! I bought the reusable bags and love them as well. Big Baggu fan
i thoroughly enjoyed this video, i hope you do more of these!
I love hearing you chatting - you have so much sense ;-)
would love if you did more of these videos! your insight is so valuable and we love to chat "with" you!
There’s a corset style tank at American eagle right now that scratches that reformation itch!
I love this and your recent videos, Alexa! Your advice is 10/10. ❤
Your natural hair color looks gorgeous on you and making your eyes color pop up 🤩
yes to another one! maybe not immediately after though because I love the variety of videos you make
Yes! I am so glad someone spoke up about the Parker Boots. They are shockingly difficult to walk in.
I love that you’re plant based! We’re gonna need some what I eat in a day videos!❤
I have owned a lot of stuff from reformation. It all wrinkles, a lot of the pieces you aren’t supposed to iron. The mason pants wrinkle unless you can hang them but they look slouchy. I have 2 linen dresses I love. Sweat suits I love bc the color. And going out tops can be hit or miss. That specific top because it’s tight might be fine but just be mindful the straps aren’t adjustable and it will pill when it’s washed.
oh I have that top and the straps are adjustable, it comes with 2 little buttons in the back (that you can also easily move around) :)
I love chatty Alexa videos!! I listen along to you while cooking or cleaning, and it feels like listening/talking to my bestie. The people who say you talk too much are welcome to go elsewhere 🤨
You always give me a good vibe
i have bought unif shoes three times and i've only liked one pair (the slug boots in shiny black). hated the flex shoe because it was uncomfortable too tight in certain areas and too loose in others and the cass shoe because the buckled straps would come undone so easy they were so floppy and thin.
There is an amazon dupe for the unif parker boots that I bought that are much cheaper and SO MUCH more comfy. I don't really wanna influence ppl to buy off amazon but the boots have been good to me.
alexa your cat is so cute!!!
You look amazing today!
Good morning Alexa happy Wednesday morning and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing
I LOVED This video ! Such a fun idea, I kinda want to do it on my channel too. You have great advice/suggestions
The cowboy boots! Yay! 😍❤️
*whispers* consume after marinate :P ;) also, give me a nice honey soy marinated tofu that's been crispy fried any day
You should also roast our outfits!
😘Alexa's too sweet, supportive, & all inclusive to roast anyone. Although she might be able to roast trends or brands, but she truly wouldn't want to offend or alienate anyone.

The silver cowboy boots? Of course❣️🤠 I say git ‘em❣️
❤the video!😊
Re: the silver cowboy boots. I think that's a risky one because BOTH cowboy boots and silver metallic have been huge trends. If you're someone who loves cowboy boots and silver-- definitely get them and love them! But I almost think Alexa's green metallic version are more "timeless" because the green didn't pop off as a micro trend and it just looks authentic to her. Also, like Alexa was saying, I think you just have to be self-aware and know how bothered you would get by people saying what you're wearing isn't trendy anymore.
I like unif mainly for their basics, i have one dress from them but its natural fibers and good quality. I probably wont buy from them again because the quality is sooooo mixed
11:15 I've been trying so much to mindfully shop clothes that fit my wardrobe. With this, it's hard to visualize from memory how much wear you'll get out of this. Recently I've been taking pics of my outfits and put it in a single album so it's easy at a glance. Then sometimes if I'm still not sure, I add my outfit pics and the item that I'm eyeing to buy on Canva (the one with the whiteboard format). I just put those side by side. It's really helpful to visualize how an item will fit in with the rest of your wardrobe :D I'd like to use Milanote too but I've only got the free version
I love the silver boots I think you should get them i thrifted a pair and love them I think you should always wear the non trendy stuff and stick out and be your own unique style 👢
Dude I have a different type of Unif boot and I feel the same way. They are so painful!!!!
Girl I can’t stop buying reformation (thanks to your recommendation with the zodiac top) I am 5 pieces deep and every. Single. Piece. Is top tier quality fit & fabric (check out the cello top! Incredible!)
you should do this again!!!!! i’ve been thinking about buying some pieces but i’m hella unsure 😿😿😿😿
I have bought metallic shoes at least 3 times from thrift stores over the years. I really want to like them, but end up selling them!
First 200! That NEVER happens! ❤❤❤
giggling that you dont like the adidas 3 stripes while im staring at your two stripe sweater/jacket behind you! lol
it literally doesn't make any sense!!! like why on the shoe do I hate it 😂
you look like baby lasagna (croatias representative on eurovision) in that shirt and i love it!
I'm grateful I don't have TikTok and spend less time on Instagram because I'm just now learning camo pants are a trend
I was so disappointed to find that Unif shoes are poor quality. All of their shoes are my style and I was hoping to be able to afford some one day 😢
It really depends on the style. I found the Parker boots horrendously uncomfortable, but I also have the Trinity boots which are extremely comfortable (even when worn for multiple hours and walking around), and the Des shoe is pretty comfortable too but I haven't wore them for that long of a time period :-)
I got adidas platform sambas in 2021 for 50$, now they're crazy expensive. they were really cool but way too small, I should have gone a size up
How cool my item made the video!! Does that mean i have to buy it?! Definitely thinking about it.
They have baggu bags from urban outfitters
listennnnnn if anyone is thinking that they want a pair of sambas, i highly recommend buying them. they're one of the most comfy shoes i own, especially as they break in (and i have high foot arches and theyre not flat at all, try the ones actually for indoor soccer for better arch support btw). but like you said alexa, there's a colorway for literally EVERYONE. the shoe itself is so sleek and streamlined that its super versatile and can go with literally everything (i have yet to find an outfit that didnt look good with them) you can go streetwear, girly, nerdy, casual, sporty, chic, grandpa. they've easily become my "ugh i have no shoes to wear" shoes and they always deliver, literally becoming a wardrobe basic for me. and i feel like, even though they're a "trending" shoe, they're actually far more classic and timeless than a lot of other trendy shoes bc of the silhouette. but if you want a "trendy" or more personalized shoe you can do that with the samba's too! seriously the most versatile and comfy shoe i own, they've basically eliminated every other sneaker from my collection (even my vejas)
As a high arch and wide feet person they were really uncomfortable for me and I hate the stiff tongue. But Adidas Spezial and handball spezial are 👌
😉Personally, I wouldn't splash out on expensive ✨️metallic✨️ 🤠cowboy boots. Too much of gamble. I wouldn't get my cost per wear down enough. Now, if I saw a 2nd hand pair for cheap in silver or gold, I might risk it for kicks & giggles. I do own gold & silver sandals that I'll wear occasionally, but they're simply not something I wear all the time.
RE: colored & patterned sneakers, I definitely lean more minimalist. Love chunky trainers👟 for hiking & long walks, but I prefer sticking w/classic colors (white, black, gray, & brown) & minimal detailing. Too much color or stripes can add more complications. Although I don't mind a bit of 🌟sparkle or bling🌟 in studs or crystals.
Feel like chunky dad sneakers suit shorts, skorts, trousers &/or athletic gear more. Make exception for my white leather marshmallow soft Hokas. They're a favorite. Will also wear my black Skechers w/hot pink accent w/my hot pink pencil skirt💖. Also my lavendar New Balance sneakers w/my purple pencil skirt💜.
Otherwise, I prefer to wear slimline sneakers w/skirts. Classic Keds w/🎀 of laces discreetly tucked away (own 'em in black, navy, red, pink, & white); Converse platform high tops (black or white); leather Vans (blush pink); & Skechers slip-ons in black or gray. No show socks required in most cases.

The reason unif has so many good vintage styles is because they've straight up copied a lot of vintage designs
Its wild how exact they copy too, I mentioned it in my dupes video with the side by sides from I think the instagram account unif copies or something like that
I love a good sneaker but there are sooooo many out there that are (in my opinion) way cuter than the adidas sambas. I have a pair of Reebok classic leather shoes with pink and yellow on the stripes. Before that I had a pair of green new balances. Sambas are cute and I appreciate the color options, but there are so many other sneakers out there that are so much more unique and can better fit your own style and closet
As a southerner, I’ve been wearing camo pants like that for years now that I got second hand from some hunters 😂
I feel like camo has been trending over a year, I love my camo sweater I thrifted for 30 like 9 months ago. But it’s def on the downward now, not peaking.
tbh i don't know who those reformation tops Do fit ?? because i'm a little bustier and i've never tried a reformation piece that didn't sit Weirdly across my chest (like it both gappy and tight somehow ??), so i don't think it's a pure size thing i think there's something a little off in the patterns maybe?
I can't stand the adidas stripe either.But I just got some Stan Smith adidas second hand and it doesn't have the stripe and they're so cute
I waited a year to buy adidas sambas bcz I was scared I was influenced. I bought them because for me they're like loafers (I wear loafers very often) but sneakers version😅 I also wanted to buy cargo pants and jorts when it was big, I'm glad I waited, bcz I hate them now.
❤❤
Baggu is cool but don’t think we should be getting rid of the reusable stuff/bags we are have and are in fine condition to be getting baggu bags because they cool.
AMEN!!!!! a point I should have made!!! I will say their reusable bags have been a game changer for helping me reduce using single-use plastic bags at the grocery store because they fold up perfectly in any bag whereas I would always forget my tote bags since they were bigger (I still own those of course and still use them for things but I just always have one of my baggu reusable bags with me in general now automatically).
Oh my god, I didn't understand your question! I thought you wanted subscribers to send you clothes that we think *you* would like! So this is what I sent. Now I'm so embarrassed lol
omg nooooo you're totally gooooood!!!!! I honestly probably didn't explain well at all! regardless, thank you for your submission ❤️
What lip products did you wear in this video?
i wanna know this too!
uhmm could we not get a marinated tofu metaphor ?!
As a crafter (knit&crochet) the 90's style sweater talk raised some thoughts. I gotta say i know nothing about this brand and if it's ethical or even the materials they use. But i have stopped buying sweaters completely (because i can make them myself which of course isn't true for everyone) bcs i can't be sure whether a shop has made it ethically and usually the materials they listed are horrible and i don't want them on my body :D and on the other hand buying from a fellow knitter from etsy will drive up the price a lot! It's just when i think of making someone a full sweater for 40 dollars it sounds ridiculous, knowing just the price of the yarn alone will go over that, let alone all the work that goes into it. I think it would be good to start talking about handmade items and their prices in a better light, because they really are that valuable. Sure it's okay to choose not to buy a handmade thing for 100+ if you just can't afford it, tbh i probably wouldn't either atm! Just what you said Alexa and the way you said it left a weird taste in my mouth 😅 it made me feel like you would advice against ethical pricing on knit items and didn't want yarn artists to get the money they deserve. Maybe in the video we just weren't talking about specifically hand made things and im ranting about nothing lmao 😂 but anyway ❤
I think she meant buying a sweater 2nd hand.
@@catmoon- ah yes well that's alright. I think i just got caught up on her saying that 40(?) dollars for a sweater would be too much :D (don't remember fully if that's exactly what she said) Getting it 2nd hand, especially if it's just like machine made or unethical or poor materials i definitely get not wanting to spend a whole lot on it!
@52 I'm specially talking about the Coogi vintage secondhand sweaters!!! the $40 price was in regards to the one I got at the rose bowl back in 2019 and now people are selling them for $400 on depop which if that price is okay with you then of course do what you want with your money, but I just wouldn't spend over $100 on one off of depop. Maybe if it was in person and I could try it on like at a flea market and it was pushing $150, but yeah that's just me and AGAIN not talking about buying a like handmade new sustainable and ethical sweater!! people that hand make their pieces sustainably and ethically should be properly compensated always ❤
@@alexasunshine83 thanks for clarifying i just wasn't paying enough attention sorry!! I totally get that like seeing something suddenly be sold second hand super expensive when you know it's not worth that, that's just craziness :D but yes it's completely different than what i was thinking haha sorry
If Alexa isn’t going to say it, I will. Do NOT buy those camo clothes. Are you going hunting? No? DON’T buy. Do you really want to look like Cletus from Hickville, Indiana on a chilly fall morning waiting in the deer stand? Is that fashionable to you? Trust when I say, NO.
🤫Sorry, camo can 💯% be 🆒️ streetwear. This isn't about dressing like 🏕Bubba in the Backwoods.
🖤Love all my redneck relatives, but this is an elevated🥂 &/or even adventure style camo🗿 (think Lara Croft Tomb Raider variety too).
See it around 😎LA mixed w/a sophisticated &/or glamour vibe too. 🪡Once caught a talented urban sewist online who created elegant maxi skirts & matching bucket hats✂️ out of camo shorts & trousers. ❤Loved her flashy elegant & military mix.
As someone who suffers in the triple digit heat🥵, I try to stack the deck in my favor. Using lightweight camo & cargo pants, tech, or utility fabrics often beautifully wick body moisture away in 🏜 dry desert climates😰. Comfy w/less wrinkling too.
In the collab thrifting video w/Alexa the other week, Carrie wore camo trousers & conveyed an edgy chic🎉.
In general, I am more of a pattern minimalist, but oddly enough I can tolerate some🤏 cheetah & camo prints. It must be evaluated on a case by case basis. 🖤Also love the black, browns, & olive greens in my color palette that pair well w/camo.

Is longevity really a word? 😮
Which one of your parents are full blood Italian and which one is full blood Dutch?
my mom is Italian (I think my grandpa does have some german in him though so obviously nothing is exactly half I guess 😅) but yeah her side is very very Italian like New York Italians and my dad is dutch (he has some Indonesian as well I think but mainly dutch) he was born in Indonesia, moved to New Zealand, and then they came to America when he was 12 (most of his family is still in holland where my Oma and Opa grew up I think)
As a vegetarian, the camos gonna be a no for me 🤗
🪖Camoflauge is very plant friendly over all. Environmentally, it's also wonderfully utilitarian & lightweight in extreme hot climates🥵. I don't understand the upset about the connection...
Beige Khaki camo is meant to blend in desert environments, while Green Khaki Camo in forestry areas. This does have military leanings, so maybe that's it. I'm certainly not pro-war, but living in 😎LA w/triple digits🌡I do like cargo pant like fabrics that breathe & won't crumple or wrinkle under climate stress.
👖Plus, jeans, like most chinos, are too heavyweight & structured for me (esp. once it hits 75°F).
Oh, duh. It finally hit me😔. The hunting angle. 🤦♀️As a long time vegetarian, you'd think I would get that right away. Personally, I wouldn't want to blend in the wild. Camo is more a streetwear vibe as well as a comfort thing.
Let some bear🐻 see me from miles away & go off in another direction. The 🦌deer would probably scatter bcos of my noise in the brush. I also talk or sing to warn 🐍rattle snakes & lizards🦎 away. Mountain lions🐾 shy away if you make a commotion by jingling your 🔑keys too.
I certainly couldn't 🏹hunt or fish🎣, but there are some valid reasons for it. Fish & Game Rangers at 🏕National Parks closely monitor animal populations. They determine what needs to be culled back, so they don't starve or over run these territories.
Hunters & fisherman serve a purpose in the 🔄 cycle of life. True sportsman treat the animal w/dignity & are greatly appreciative of their sacrifice. In the process, they can provide sustenance for themselves & family🍽.
⚕️Frankly, some ppl also respond well to carnivore &/or keto diets. It's been proven helpful to reduce & eliminate symptoms of some debilitatingly painful autoimmune issues as well as inflammation, dementia & other dreaded diseases. Scientists has proven cases where going 100% plant based doesn't always give everyone the nutrients their body needs.
I eat 🥚eggs & other 🧈dairy products🧀 myself, but I look for humanely treated livestock. Also stay away from faux meat too. 🤢It grosses me out to taste like the real thing. Also, bcos of Breast Cancer risk, I can only eat a minimum of soy products. 🍄I've always hated the taste & texture of mushrooms too🤮.
😳Sorry, style & diet wise, you do what makes you feel most comfortable.

I love Baggu bags but don’t really understand the cult like following? I live in NJ so we don’t have any bags here at stores, so the little bag they come in is really handy to keep in my purse!
"you talk too much" excuse you, thats why im here. talk more actually
So hunters are trendy now lol
Such an aggressive intro
Hon you are a fashion influencer. It's OK to buy things and the price sometimes reflects quality. Avoiding fast fashion is the best thing you can do if you care about ethics. I don't want to be lectured on not to buy clothing on a fashion haul site.
This video is just for fun! If you want to buy it, buy it! If you don’t, don’t! I’m more in a style rut where I don’t really know what I like and don’t like currently so I keep buying things that in the end I don’t really love so I’m trying to kind of make better shopping habits and also reflect on what clothes actually make me feel good vs having a closet filled with things that I don’t wear
I miss small business hauls
Pretty sure this video is about making mindful choices and offering an alernative perspective on a particular item as opposed to simply not buying. Also, zero lecturing vibes here.
Love you and appreciate all of your videos even when I don't always agree with your choices, @alexasunshine83
Wouldn't call this a fashion haul site. This isn't to dogpile; I mean it neutrally, but I don't think that's entirely fair to Alexa. She definitely lives within the divide between environmentalism and consumerism cultures and I think both her stated intentions and actual actions reflect someone working to strike a balance in that very real world. Influencing people to thrift and think about clothes differently doesn't do nothing for the movement and to simply (and pretensiously) reassign her as just another influencer is genuinely disrespectful. Talking about trends does not make you superficial or slated to be pro consumerism; here she clearly recognizes where people are at and keeps the same tone and energy and outlook as any video. Maybe you think sharing her opinion makes her lecturing; I don't know what you do with most of social media. You don't need to confuse down to earth with basic; the rest of us get it.
