“Forgetting you have a body,” I cannot relate more!!! I have said to my housemate that the walls of the flat have become my skull and we are living in my thoughts. He looked at me like I had two heads.
Well, I mean, in that moment you were telling him that you had 2 heads - the one he could look at on your shoulders, and the one he was standing in with you 😂
(Also I literally felt the exact same and until I read your comment I couldn't articulate it at all lmao)
@@doctorwholover1012 I'm happy to know I am not alone on this journey 😂
as the person who realized makeup just wasn’t for them during quarantine, this made me wear my bubblegum pink overalls and have fun doing absolutely nothing ! 💗
omg that sounds wonderful!
"Somedays my mind has felt like it has been held together with red lipstick and gumption." - Leena, Queen of Quarantine ❤️
I told my coworker I was running off adrenalin, caffeine, and rock n roll because I was doing "long distance learning ", working and king care of my house and 2 kids. Its hell.
I have a go to outfit for when I just want to feel happy about things - I call it “The Cat Dress”. It’s a huge, oversized, midi shirt dress from Monki with, you guessed it, cats all over it.
It’s not flattering at all, but it’s not meant to be by design. My body underneath it is meaningless, you can’t see my stomach or my arms, or my thighs. What you do see is a little bit of my personality. When I wear it I am “Cat Dress” and Cat Dress is me.
That sounds awesome! I wish I could see that.
Wait, I think I also have this dress! Is it black in a sort of nubbly fabric with big tabby cat heads and sort of stars? :D
Oh my god when I read "go to outfit" I immediately thought of my cat dress and then I read "cat dress" 😂 then I thought, it can't be the same one but it actually sounds like it is!! I love a t shirt dress and that one from Monki is honestly my fave.
U weirdly made want to own an shapeless Cat Dress wow
sounds soooo good!!!!
Mate. That art supply teacher outfit. Goals!!!! This video was brill x
to make sure we got to speak everyday my mum worked through her entire wardrobe in lockdown and sent me photos of the outfits. then when she ran out of clothes we workshopped the lewks and decided which things could be given to the charity shop. Was very fun and she found some stuff she'd forgotten she has and now loves
I love that! Go your mom!!
This sounds so sweet! Mom goals
I'm a housewife in my 30s I rarely leave my house, even before quarantine. Everyday I get dressed dress, do my hair and makeup. I clean and cook looking my best, it keeps my cheery and motivated and stops me sitting around doing nothing
@r m I know it’s a month later and I’m not the OA, but ! if you want to see what a “day in the housewife life” looks like I would recommend Mrs.Midwest. She has videos that promote ideologies that are definitely horrible, but she does give a good idea of what her day to day looks like
I have five older sisters - which means for most of my life I've had a closet full of hand-me-downs. One of the cool things about growing up is that for the past few years I haven't gotten any new hand-me-downs. I've finally got to figure out for myself what I like and what kind of styles I actually enjoy wearing. I'm still figuring it out, but it has been really fun.
Three years late, but I soooo relate to this. I never grew much, so some of my hand-me-downs from middle school still fit (yknow, back when clothes were actually made to last) that taking up sewing and knitting/crochet to make clothes I truly like has been pretty fun. Even better, I can alter some of my old clothes to be wearable according to my preferences.
Clothes 100% help lockdown blues for me. Typing this in dressy pants, a turtleneck and a red lip! My favourite outfit of yours was Wednesday, it reminded me of my mum, she’s a year 4 teacher and wears that kind of stuff everyday for the kids, but is full black on the week-ends which I find hilarious !
Aw that's so sweet that she dresses up bright for them - and then mourning vibes at the weekend?! Turtlenecks are the best, 10/10 x
@@leenanorms basically yes! That opposition is actually quite funny visuallty x
I’m getting her a pair of those bright tights you recommend in your recent video for Hanukah!!
I BASICALLY GUEST STARRED IN THIS VIDEO!!!!! Love you so much ♥️ you will thrive again! We’ll all get through this ♥️

My two fave CZcamsrs 🙀
See, this is why I invest in pajamas that I love. I feel like myself even on days when I don't get dressed. :)
"perhaps we've been underthinking it all along" is pretty much my operating principle
also getting "regret is for the stable" framed
you just inspired me to go put on red lipstick and a giant jumper/ sequin dress thingy and now i'm gonna go wear that to go buy carrots, and yes the lipstick will be covered up with a face mask but its a rainbow face mask and i think we're all just doing our best, also you have fantastic taste in clothes
This was interesting to see how the other half live and what motivates them. Your lockdown social life would be exhaustingly busy for me. I have felt more "me" being able to wear hoodies and yoga pants because I like to move around, sprawl out on the floor, tuck my feet up under myself - all things that I have to restrict if I "dress up" (either to not expose myself or because the clothes would get destroyed).
It seemed like you really hit the nail on the head when you said that bit about dressing up to make yourself feel more like you physically exist - it's fascinating to see that other people enjoy a sensation that I put a lot of effort into trying to avoid. I think that having watched this I'll understand other people better in the future.
as someone who adores any kind of alternative fashion, making an effort to dress up as many days as I can has really been what's getting me through it
The outfit with the turquoise jeans and the purple top looks awesome !
"Sequins have an everyday function to them. I think they are an untouched resource."
Yes! Gonna integrate that into my life ASAP
I've spent this pandemic in jogging bottoms and now I'm inspired.
LEENA ! It's so absurdly refreshing how unapologetically you love things!! You're enthusiasm is beautiful AND by the way so are you !!!!!!
I'd just like to say that you've become my 2020 fashion icon -- your "cutting my own bangs" vid really stuck with me and inspired me to do the same weeks afterwards, and your dressing up vids have prompted me to PLAY with clothes more, try new combos, have fun with it! Genuinely I love your eye for color and pattern and texture, please make as many dress up videos as you'd like to cause I'll always be here for them lolol
hahah aw well I definitely enjoyed making it so there will definitely be more!!!
Omg please try wearing that purple top under the yellow dress instead! I loved these outfits 🧡🧡
oooo that could be cool, good idea!
Every day is an occasion and playing with clothes and makeup is such a joy. Love your outfits and your thinking outside the box but the makeup....👸🏻🧞♀️💃🥇🎨📸 1st class!

ive literally spent my lockdown in joggers and old cardigans, this has really inspired me to break out my sparkly skirts and baggy pants and treat myself😌✨
"It felt like I checked out of my storyline" THIS! I've been feeling like this for too long...
First time watching you and instant subscribe. You're awesome x
This thoroughly cheered me up! It's not that yours is not the most complicated experience with the pandemic that you're not allowed to feel down and stuck. I've also allowed myself to buy second hand clothes online during the pandemic, even though I'm mostly at home. It just helps me feel like myself. 💕
Aw thank you - yes, depop is my crutch and I shall not be ashamed x
I'm watching this a million years late but man, there were a bunch of little poignant moments in this that just hit me so hard emotionally. Even with things mostly open and "back to normal" where I live, it's going to take a long time to heal our traumatized brains. Thanks for putting all the things into words. ♥️
loved this, wonderful human! also "red lip for the feet''. wow.
I stand by that statement!
This video is so great! I love seeing people dress up and be 'extra' - never feel guilty for getting pleasure from clothes as people get pleasure from seeing you rock them so you're spreading joy and the world needs more of that
Am I extremely inspired? Yes, yes I am. I've been having a bit of a time recently figuring out how to reflect myself through my aesthetic if you will. This has been great, I love how much you love colour. I bloody love colour too and need to wear all of them, always 😍
I'd love to see leena in 60s makeup, hair, and clothes
ooh this has really inspired me to work my way through my neglected lipstick drawer!
oh my god!! Thank you so much Leena, I've been feeling this weird musty dry-skin, cluttered feeling (whatever) and during the video I started to pick an outfit (subconsciously!!) and then I actually danced to the songs u linked and it made me feel much better 🥺🥺 Thank you for this video 🌸🧚🏻♀️
This is so recognisable! I love dressing up and then when I am done with what I had to do that day I transfer into my comfortable 'at-home' clothes. makes me feel good.
Your relationship with clothes gets me excited! I literally use clothes as a way to minimise dysphoria in every way possible, but lockdown has got me kinda excited about clothes and colours again! I’ve found painting my nails, dying my hair and wearing eye make up aren’t things I have to leave until after medically transitioning. All the joyful clothes tooooo
I loved this so much. I've been putting on makeup on "occasion" but that's all. I think I may try this and document it in a similar way that you did, but maybe with a couple of self-made pieces. I've always strayed from too much color as a midsize person, I think because my mom always talked about how big prints for for big people (in a really negative way), but I think second-hand shopping and sharing could help me push through that toxic learning and feel more like dramatic attention in clothing is fun. Thank you for this!
YES LEENA! This is the greatest! Thank you so much for shouting me out
I loved this video! Those bright teal/aqua jeans are super cute! I'm almost lucky in that I have to get "dolled up" for my videos, as it's literally the only time I've had this year to get dressed and feel fully myself. When I put a whole outfit on now, with heels and everything, there is a bit of an "ohhhh, yeah thissss" feeling about it. My clothes (costume, armor...) can make me feel powerful in a year where I have felt quite powerless. Perhaps I should get dressed properly more often, I too miss my "real" clothes.
omg i LOVED this, i could listen to you talk for hours. so honored to have been mentioned 💜
this fringe has aged wonderfully !!! a gift that keeps on giving !!!!!
Children's TV Presenter Chic is giving me all the Autumnal vibes & positive effects of a S.A.D light. THANK YOU!

This was weirdly inspiring. We did not have too much COVID lockdown. But I did start experimenting with vintage clothes and putting together outfits that are kind of extra. And it does make me happy to dress up.
Loved all the outfits! Totally get what you said at the end about growing up being encouraged to see clothes as fun but as an adult they have to be flattering or professional. The amount of times I've been told I'm 'brave' for wearing a bright coloured shirt! Why should anyone spend the day wearing things that dont make them happy 🥰
Leena is the happiest combination of 2014 and my seventh grade English teacher and I’m here for it
This is DEFINITELY something I've been doing. Really exploring my closet and rediscovering clothes I forgot I had, while also decluttering as much as possible! The whole aesthetic side of things has helped so much (like, colorful notes in school work, keeping my room organized, clothes, jewellery, playing around with the decor items I already own, etc). This video was so fun!!! I said it in the chat but I looooove your fashion sense 💛
I love the music you used, that's notging I normally notice, but here I did! :)
Also in general, I really enjoyed the video
Glad you liked it!
'There are paragraphs in there that do make sense to me' 🤗 This made me feel so much better about my own capability to concentrate when reading recently. Thank you for reminding us that even you are only human 😊
I love these kinds of videos! Nice to see all the amazing outfits you created and it was also kinda philosophical when you talked about clothes as if you were a film character. That defenitely made me think! 😊 I tried this out and it was so nice! I wore a blazer and a pair of shoes I hadn't worn in months/years! 🥳
Leena, thank you. Thank you for your honesty and thank you for putting out videos that make people wonder about who they are and where they are. I’m sat here quietly sobbing while missing my parents (dad has luekemia) and wanting more but realising I can survive with what I have. It’s not perfect but I can talk to dad and if anything I appreciate his dad humour more than I’m willing to admit. He’s originally a Londoner, moved to Wales to love my mum, and now years later they have their home in wales while I left wales to live in London at 18 and years later I miss them every day while living where our family came from years ago. If you’re reading this, I want to thank you for being you, thank you for asking more of yourself than most people do, and thank you for making me ask more of myself too. Take care. Live, love, and laugh. Those are the things dad say are the most valuable of all.
I really needed this right now, thank you. Uni/moving on my own has made me feel ridiculously isolated & dressing up nicely makes me feel good.
Now I'm about to go slip on my newly thrifted (pre-lockdown) wrap dress & feel a little bit better.
I loved when you said "the way a character dresses in a movie instantly tells their story". This was so beautiful and accurate! During lockdown I've settled myself to truly find my "me" style, and this quote will start being my motto 💙 thank you for that
I already know I’m going to love this video!
I've had a bit of a week and this is exactly what I needed. I'm meeting up with some friends tomorrow (first time I'm seeing people outside of my bubble in 2 months) and I'm soooo looking forward to this. And this has inspired me to do more 😁
When you’re still in school and have to wear a uniform, so ‘doing the most’ means wearing a green scrunchie :\
school uniforms suck. I hope you hold on to the small rebellions though, and wear clothes that feel like you in the time you do have to dress for yourself! Good luck, stranger!
I realized my 90% of my clothes weren't getting worn, so I've made an effort to wear things that I haven't worn in 2020. I discovered I love wearing high heels and tights around the house because I don't have to deal with cold weather or difficult pavements, etc.
The fact that my faves were children's tv presenter and art supply teacher is revealing some things to myself...
The art supply teacher outfit was spot on! My art teacher from secondary school did genuinely dress like that, complete with a headpiece of some kind (hat, scarf, or headband). I loved her outfits and she has definitely inspired me to be more experimental and fun in my own dressing.
With the pandemic and chronic illness making me feel crap, I've spent most of the last year in pajamas or loose fitting, casual clothes, except for Friday's. Friday's are food shopping day, so I dress up, put on makeup, and do my hair.
YESSSSS I agree so much with this whole video! You really know how to put into words real and serious thoughts about clothes. Loved this video so much. Really fun and you really do look happy when you wear the pieces you love the most!
Xxx
What you said at the end kind of reminded me of this quote from Zelda Fitzgerald “I am really only myself when I’m somebody else whom I have endowed with these wonderful qualities from my imagination.”
Clothes and make up and accessories are just a means for us to express all the facets of ourselves in the end
Im here Leena!!!! And im loving this video! I commented previously the last one had too many flashing images and panning/cutting for my braIn but this one was perfect! I so enjoy ur content !! Im going to forward this to my nieces who would really enjoy doing this!
I've had so many conflicting emotions about clothes these past months, so this is really soothing 💕
i read the title and thought you did Fancy Dress every day, which I thought was a big commitment but this works too!
That apricot shirt looks amazing on you! Also, thank you for making me put on lipstick today, it makes me smile every time I walk past a mirror
i honestly don't love clothes but i LOVE fun silly and dumb nails for my adult self and seeing them every day brightens my mood
aaa i love this video! i’ve recently gotten back into actually getting dressy dressed up because i was truly starting to feel like an actual slug in human form and figured i needed to change something in my life. choosing an outfit gives me something to do, allows me to express myself creatively and honestly just feel more....me. i loved the outfits you wore and hope you continue to find inspiration through your clothing!
Shout out to CZcams recommended videos. Loved this. Obsessed with you. Mid video I decided I was gonna put on some glittery mint eyeshadow in solidarity
"Regrets are for the stable." I'm adopting this.
Leena you litterally look good in every color, you're wonderful💕💕💕💕🌈

You are the one who introduced me to Hannah Louise Poston's channel, and I'm so grateful you did that!
I love her and her content so much 😍
I feel like I had my best conversation all month and I didn't even talk to you. I think sometimes I feel lost in the very much literal clutter of the things I own, at the same time as I realize that they matter to my immensely. I feel like my internal flailing about is manifesting in that dynamic, but you get something here about why people like me can be so often loving and hating our created, very stuff-focused little worlds so much. It's not just clothing. It's all some form of this with stuff. Which is not to say I shouldn't go through, organize and discard more than I do. But I think this actually helps with that. I feel it's so much easier to declutter and deal with stuff and myself fairly when I hear someone feeling things so close to what I feel.
What you said about peripheral vision - I think having mirrors around makes looking and feeling nice have an impact on me too. If I keep seeing myself looking a mess it brings me down, but liking how I look can change everything!
Also those irregular choice heels are everything and the shop on carnaby street is my happy place - haven't been to london since feb and I miss it so much!!
Children's TV Presenter Chic part 2 🌟
For the past couple of years I've been trying to dress nice everyday because I like how it makes me feel 😄 Now I'm trying to reduce the amount of clothes I own, and only own clothes I love, and wear clothes I love everyday
I've started sewing my own (fancy vintage) clothes and it is a big distraction from loneliness!
The art supply outfit is killer! The hair, make up, mixed prints. Perfection!
I loved so many of these looks! Love finding fellow bright color people and pattern-mixing people. And in that last look I said to myself "I hope she has a purple lipstick" AND THEN YOU DID IT!
I s2g after the mud bit and you changed into the turquoise trousers I just looked up and out loud said "oh fuck yeah", what a vibe.
Genuinely though I'm home for Christmas and the change in routine and bits of nostalgia has completely thrown me off and I'm definitely going to start getting out my snazzy clothes in the morning so i feel ready for the day
This made me super happy, thank you Leena! :)
Such a fun video, really inspired me want to switch up my daily quarantine chic consisting of a black turtleneck and jeans! Wish us all sanity in these times 💘🌷
I had already watched this early but it made me so happy I just had to watch it again. Amazing outfits, great thoughts and reflections!
hahah the dedication of watching it twice - thanks Ike!
Red shoes- You put it perfectly! Genius!
Red lips & gumption! 👏🏻 I’m a stay at home mom and early in my new role I discovered that frumpy, careless outfits did me no good! So I wear workplace semi casual with a 40’s and 50’s inspired clothes. People are always surprised when I confess that I don’t hold a job… just 2 kids lol. So when quarantine hit, I didn’t change this habit by every morning getting up, got dressed like I had purpose and did my at home daily routine. Honest it was a sanity save and I didn’t let my self go. So yes, must have: red lips & gumption! 💛
I had no idea how much I needed this video until I watched it. I love you, your outfits, and realizing that my clothes are there for my enjoyment!!!
I’ve made sure to wear non-pajamas for at least part of the day during quarantine, and have actually only broken that rule 3 times since March. I haven’t been forcing myself though- I really do just enjoy the feeling of putting together an outfit that is visually pleasing to me and existing in that outfit for the day.
Running in to a bit of a roadblock now as I don’t shave my legs and wearing tights for a whole day actually gets quite uncomfortable. Since it gets very cold where I live, not wearing tights has limited my options a bit. It may finally be time to own more than two pairs of pants (trousers). Just another change this year :)
Oh thank god, i finally found this channel again! I was watching your clothes videos back while in lockdown, and since then i switched accounts and somehow could not find these again. I've been trying for 4 years! I may not be agreeng with some of your opinions, but i enjoy the clothes content and i like hearing your accent. Glad to have this channel back in my feed ♡
I so related to your conclusion, essentially had this kind of day. Thanks for being vulnerable.
Yesss! That last outfit just destroyed me, what a masterpiece of color texture accessories etc.🔥💃💃💃🔥 I Really feel you on the color. I respect everyone's taste and preference, but neutrals are never and have never made for good "staples" in my wardrobe. I get incredibly depressed in a black or navy coat when I look down all I see is darkness. My only neutrals are my leggings, but they get covered in bright soft dresses down to the knee so I don't care. I was 10 or 11 dealing with what I now have been diagnosed with PTSD and depression when I discovered I could help my mood by wearing bright colors. It did take me until moving out and being able to deal with my mental health in my early twenties to just have fun with fashion. When people make rules like: you need plain basic, and neutrals, etc, it's timeless it's classic... It just doesn't work for everyone. I will wear the shit out of a coral coat as long as it fits my ever-fluctuating body and will not tire me. Color isn't a trend for me, I choose colors I love so I won't get tired of them. The one thing that killed me is when you mentioned that "you kind of forget that you have a body" part because while I'm stuck home I have fibro and no access to any of the treatments that help me manage the pain, all I feel and am aware of is my body. 😂That is not meant as a slam or guilt trip, it was more this moment of realization for me. A constant reminder of different experiences. It never occurred to me that someone could forget their bodies during this time because I can't stop feeling mine for more than 5 min. I have so much empathy for feeling disconnected from oneself in other ways, so this was illuminating. Thank you as always for sharing yourself.
I enjoy watching these kind of videos and admire your style and energy! I'd like to think it could work for me, but I can't sit in my chair for all working day in this type of clothing. In the office you have reasons to get up regularly and walk somewhere - to the meeting room, to the coffee machine, to your colleague's table, etc. And at home it's all happening in my chair. I might choose some fancy top for a day, but not a bottom. xD
Absolutely love how colourful your wardrobe is - so much character!
The day I got laid off back in March of 2020 due to...everything....I started doing a Laid Off Fashion Parade on instagram for pretty much the same reasons you list here. I was very depressed, sad about losing my job, and sad about not being able to wear my favorite outfits for an audience. As it turned out, I got to push my style a lot farther than I ever could while I was working and I really enjoyed trying something new every day. Although I stopped doing it in September (save for Halloween & Christmas themed weeks and the occasional fun idea), it was the best thing that could have happened to me during the worst time. Be authentically yourself, as loudly as possible...even if you're the only one who can hear it. :) Love your style!
That first red eyelook is FIRE! 🔥😍
This was an excellent way to end my day (she says, at 1.30 am)! I need to do this more and break up the jumper and jeans combo at least once a week. Also, Irregular Choice, I'm in love
Directly after watching this, I got up and put on a look that isn't jogging or cargo pants. Now I'm wearing a neoprene floral skirt with a skin-tight floral top, and glitter tights with sushi socks. It looks a bit ridiculous but it makes me smile. I even put on lipstick!
So thank you for reminding me that clothes are in fact a way to feel better ♥
Aw that makes my heart happy!
Love this video so much leena!!! Since i moved to london a few years ago, I decided to wear as little excitement (colourful and interesting clothing) as possible to attract as little attention as possible. But it makes me so sad to not express my true colour loving self. watching this is really nice!!!
This is my favourite of all your videos!!! The purple and yellow made me smile so much 🥰
I don't own many clothes, I've moved too many times for that, but I LOVE dressing up! I've basically always spent every day dressing in my best outfits (though I definitely do get lazy with my makeup - which I think I'll now try to do! I do really miss makeup!). I think it comes from just wearing all my sister's hand me downs growing up. It was difficult to find my own style when I was basically forced into her style. I still remember the first shirt I chose that I actually did love when I was 16 - I still own it, it still fits, and I still love it to death!! Yay fashion! It keeps me sane, even when I'm terrible at it. And yes for the record, I do dress up in my "best" outfits, but as my ex used to say, nothing went with anything I paired it with and I was always too much. His criticisms definitely toned me way down. But we broke up in covid times, which was about time for sure, so I've been slowly finding myself again, but it'll be better in a month when I move out. Yes, still been living with my ex-boyfriend for months and months. Covid times sucks, has that been mentioned yet? But I got into hand sewing and made myself a pumpkin apron, and just got some cloth and will be making myself my own outfits now! Once I get the courage up haha. Somehow it was much easier to do an apron that I know only my roommates would see than to make outfits I want to actually wear where non-roommates will theoretically see someday. Ah well.
Thanks for the inspiration to start wearing makeup too!
Children's TV Presenter Chic is my every day outfit inspo! Ms. Frizzle is my style icon.
Very much what is on my mind now. I like to wear nice clothes, I like to dress in a lot of colour and pattern and I'm working on valuing how I feel in my clothes over what others might think. I think this is applicable to how I work on my self as a whole.
Wearing cool outfits is both, a reflection of what's happening internally, and a boost to the inner self through clothes. Bi-directional benefits 💪
One of my favourite of your videos ever! Wonderful. Charming. Hilarious. Vulnerable. You are lovely.
Great clothes! 🤩 And sending you all the love in this hard time 💜💜💜
YOU helped get me through 2020.
Thank you for being real. As I'm sure Many of us who watch you feel! Bless sistuh!
