I seriously love all your outfits! It’s a great point for you mention the plus-sized thrifting community and how we shouldn’t deplete the larger sized clothing at thrift stores. I’m currently in the hunt for some high waisted pinstripe trousers :)
Thank you! And yes so so important - I'm over 'thrift flips' ruining plus-sized thrifting. I was looking for pinstripe trousers for so long and I was so excited to find them at the thrift store!! x
I can only hope no one is complaining about the length of your video. This is my introduction to you and although I prefer videos to be around 10min or so depending on the topic, I was pleased with this one because you were not repetitive. Everything was on point, language, editing, links, sustainable options, etc. I'm subbing
Aw this means a lot to me, thank you!! I was trying to cut it down but didn't want to cut out important points. Appreciate your support and so excited for you to stick around 🤎
This video has drove me to really let go of fast fashion. Your style is on point and really inspires (inspiroue haha) me to try harder on letting go of unhealthy shopping habits. Keep it up please! Its nice to know all these sustainable brands and to always look in our closet first :D
I was editing a spring essentials video when I got your notification lol, but some I know how to prioritize 😆 Im obsessed by your styling skills, the colors are amazing 🥰
if you are low on budget, you can also learn how to sew. It a lot cheaper to get EXACTLY what you want, in the perfect color and fabric at a fraction of the retail price. You just have to take the time to learn a new skill and practice sewing. I've been doing that a lot this year since we are stuck inside! I definitely recommended this.
I love that at least in this video you use colors that have a lot of brown tones. I am a fall, so pastels don't look good on me and in spring everybody starts doing bright pink, sky blue, and light green, none of which favors me. You use pink but because it has a lot of brown in it I could wear it and have it work. Your green goes toward the olive, so I could do that too. Thank you!
So happy to hear!! I don’t look good in the bright pastels either and not a fan of how almost all spring videos share that palette - it should depend on your skin tone! It takes me so long to find pieces that suit my olive-y Asian skin so I’m glad this can help x
I have a handbag suggestion for you! I just bought a Bobobark by Laflore, it's handmade, sustainable, and very practical and elegant but still unique. It's expensive and they only have one style so you have to love it, but for me it was absolutely worth it.
Ou I will look into them thank you!! I JUST stumbled across a belt bag by Poppy Barley (made of cactus leather) and it may be everything I've been looking for! x
Whatever idea you have just do it, I'll watch it. I just had the calmest time viewing this and sipping my tea with my feet up in my dining area. Great stuff, truly 👍🏽👗
I really like the 2 pc olive pant set. It really cool that you can wear the top front to back. Thanks for sharing and blessing to you and all in the days to come.
I discovered ypur channel a few days ago and I'm in love with your videos and style. You obviosuly do a lot of research and it shows in the quality of all your videos.
I hope you're doing alright!!! I live your videos and it's always a good reminder to use what I have- and if I don't have it, make sure to think about things carefully before jumping to any conclusion
Thank you for the inspiration, I really love the asymmetrical top. And I totally agree, basics with a more "fun" aspect add creativity to the wardrobe. Also, you look so lovely in those front tie tops 💕
Me too!! And yes I'm so over influencers saying you need the same like 30 basics that all look the same, and not all are flattering on all body shapes or skin tones haha. Thank you!! Front tie tops are one of my faves cause they highlight all my fave features hehe x
UgHHH the urge to get the veta capsule two piece dress is SO STRONG 😍😍😍😍 I love your style, I really am inspired by this and really want to add these to my collection!
Thanks for the video! Do you have a video of your whole wardrobe? It would be super helpful to see how much you have and how you use it all throughout the year/s.
Thank you so much for sharing the wrap blouses and reversible skirts! I love the versatility of them! I am thinking of buying the black version of the sage blouse. Not only can I wear it on a day to day basis in many ways. I have ethnic bottoms and skirts that are in need of a new tailored blouse and I think this piece would be perfect for it!
Aw yay so happy to hear, thank you 🥺💛 yes the black tank? it's such a flattering fit (I've never been keen on tanks but I love this one and feel so good in it) x
Cynthia I LOVE your style Omgggg literally everything you post I love! I was wondering what size you got for the vetta capsule top & skirt / base range joggers and the free label top & pants. If you don’t mind sharing it would help me figure out sizing 💕 thank you!!
This is exactly what I was thinking recently, especially the jumpsuit. Even though I'm still in quarantine, I still need clothes for work. I'm finding it hard to cover the switch to Spring AND the need to balance anything I get for home workwear to also be functional once we're out of quarantine. Can't quite find the right mix right now.
Aw it’s tough, especially if work still requires biz casual for zoom calls. I think polished outerwear is key and then some really simple tops you can layer! I honestly wear the same things to all my zoom calls haha but sometimes switch up the background or my hair to change it up x
I know this video is older but just a PSA to people just finding it: you can take items bought at the thrift store to a tailor to get your perfect "crisp" fit so if you can't afford the trenchcoat (or whatever) of your dreams just thrift it and take it to a tailor
Discovered you last year and I'm so happy I subscribed! I always look forward to your videos and appreciate how well thought out they are. Inspired (hehe) me to really push for brands that are sustainable, ethical, and size inclusive while making sure to not be afraid of keeping others brands accountable. (ृʾ́꒳ʿ̀ ृ )ु
Thank you so much for making this! It's so hard to find people who wear vetta on youtube, but I always prefer to see the clothes on some people before I buy. I hope you don't mind, but was wondering how tall you are? I am considering buying the VETTA skirt but I'm pretty short so I don't know if it would be too long for me (I'm 5'2)
Yay of course!! Same here, so I hope the video clips can help! I am 5'4 and find the skirt hits me at a flattering length - I don't think it would be too long! I also love that you can wear it a bit higher waisted since the band is elastic so there's a bit of wiggle room! Hope this can help x
Right?! I can't believe I found it randomly on my way out of a value village haha - it's originally oak + fort (hopefully you can search the thrift apps for it!) x
Your videos make me so happy!! I got an email awhile back saying your shop was updated but nothing came up. Was that an accident? Would love to buy more curated thrifted pieces from you. I purchased a navy romper back in 2019 :) still wear it to this day.
Aw this comment makes me so happy!! Appreciate your support so much 🥺 and haha that email sent accidentally buttt I am planning to post some curated thrift Ive held on to since the popup shop (and some pieces from my closet I hope others can love) soon!! Still not sure how I’m going to do it (thinking a bidding system on IG) but will send an email out when I do 💛
Of course! Size smalls in all (I'm usually a size medium bottoms but since they're both elastic waist bands, the teams recommended this size and I was shocked that there was a flattering amount of space for my hips/bum)! x
of course! I got a small in both (sent measurements to the team and they recommended small - but for extra room in the bust they said to size up)! Hope this helps x
I got a small in both after asking their team for size recommendations cause I wasn't sure either! I'm usually a medium in bottoms but they recommended a small in the skirt which I'm so glad I went for cause the waist and hips/bum fit perfectly (also got a small in the top cause I'm smaller chested and only 5'4) - hope this helps!! x
A small in both! I usually go for a medium in bottoms to have space for my hips/bum but the team recommended a small because of my waist size and it is perfect!! I'm like a 42" at the widest part of my hips/bum if that helps 🥰 Daniella/Jess at Free Label are super helpful if you have sizing Qs so definitely reach out to them!
I’m doing a closet declutter soon so that can hopefully give you a sense of it! 70% of my closet is thrifted but because I ran a shop, I also have leftover inventory so will sell some soon
Hi! Great video! If you ever decide to sell your vetta satin wrap top in blush/pink, please consider selling to me (3:14 of video). 😢 I lost mine and was heartbroken to find out vetta capsule closed… it’s my favorite piece ever 💖
I love your channel so much…I've been a subscriber since its inception!! Your channel vibes so much with @imperfectidealist 's channel, you should check her out if you have a chance! We went to Chinese school together in high school and she's seriously one of the smartest and coolest people ever!! She talks a lot about sustainability and minimalism :)
Aw thank you for your support through the years 🥺💛 and ouuu I will check her out!! Haha oh my the Chinese school days I wish I remembered what I learned back then x
I seriously love all your outfits! It’s a great point for you mention the plus-sized thrifting community and how we shouldn’t deplete the larger sized clothing at thrift stores. I’m currently in the hunt for some high waisted pinstripe trousers :)
Thank you! And yes so so important - I'm over 'thrift flips' ruining plus-sized thrifting. I was looking for pinstripe trousers for so long and I was so excited to find them at the thrift store!! x
A someone who is plus, I appreciated this call out as well. I basically stopped thrifting because of how difficult it was to find anything in my size.
I can only hope no one is complaining about the length of your video.

Every video of yours is just *chef’s kiss* 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
🥺💛 made my day x
I second this comment! *Chefs Kiss*
❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥

Heheh have I ~ inspir(ed y)ou e~? It’s been a while since anyone’s caught that 🥰 and yay to all of this!!
I was editing a spring essentials video when I got your notification lol, but some I know how to prioritize 😆 Im obsessed by your styling skills, the colors are amazing 🥰
No way perfect timing!! And thank you haha I love a good colour palette and colour mood x
if you are low on budget, you can also learn how to sew. It a lot cheaper to get EXACTLY what you want, in the perfect color and fabric at a fraction of the retail price. You just have to take the time to learn a new skill and practice sewing. I've been doing that a lot this year since we are stuck inside! I definitely recommended this.
love your style so much! would love to see a summer capsule or summer essentials too. it’s so hard for me to be stylish during the summer
I love that at least in this video you use colors that have a lot of brown tones.

Love the colors! Having that consistent theme + color palette is like my dream for a minimalist wardrobe!
same here!! x
I love every piece you showed us! You have awesome taste! 💗
Ahhhh yay thank you 💛
I have a handbag suggestion for you! I just bought a Bobobark by Laflore, it's handmade, sustainable, and very practical and elegant but still unique. It's expensive and they only have one style so you have to love it, but for me it was absolutely worth it.
Ou I will look into them thank you!! I JUST stumbled across a belt bag by Poppy Barley (made of cactus leather) and it may be everything I've been looking for! x
I really love your pieces and style😍 thanks for introducing me to some sustainable brand options which is really difficult to find where I’m from
I really love the linen pants...its just so easy breezy to me and classy. Oh and yes I love trousers dressed up or down.
Agreed!! Love linen anything - it's so breathable and comfy! And yes all the yummy thrifted trousers x
Whatever idea you have just do it, I'll watch it.
I just had the calmest time viewing this and sipping my tea with my feet up in my dining area. Great stuff, truly 👍🏽👗
Aw appreciate you so so much thank you x
I love your channel!! These were classic, simple, beautiful pieces!! ❤️❤️
Thank you so much! Happy you enjoyed x
all the pieces are so cute, definitely need to keep an eye out for a white blazer next time i thrift
yes you'll find one!! thank you x
My spring wardrobe essential is white: pants, skirts, dresses, tops, blazers, shoes, bags and everything else. It’s my favorite “color”.
Wonderful video, and I would love to see your year-round essentials!
Thank you! And yay I’ll plan one soon! x
OBSESSED with that silky pint skirt and lilac sweater combo!
I really like the 2 pc olive pant set. It really cool that you can wear the top front to back. Thanks for sharing and blessing to you and all in the days to come.
Agreed!! Love super versatile pieces you can mix and match with. Appreciate your support so much x
I discovered ypur channel a few days ago and I'm in love with your videos and style. You obviosuly do a lot of research and it shows in the quality of all your videos.

Of course, happy to! I also love Free Label so I’m glad to share them! The top is super versatile - also comes in a gorgeous brown tone too x
I love the video and your style is just spot on🥰I might actually save up for the black top because it looks like it‘s just what I‘ve been looking for
Aw yay so happy to hear, thank you 🥺💛 yes the black tank? it's such a flattering fit (I've never been keen on tanks but I love this one and feel so good in it) x
Cynthia I LOVE your style Omgggg literally everything you post I love! I was wondering what size you got for the vetta capsule top & skirt / base range joggers and the free label top & pants. If you don’t mind sharing it would help me figure out sizing 💕 thank you!!

Lovely content 🙌 Thank you for creating and sharing.
Thank you! x
My main reasons for buying clothes are: weight gain/loss and boredom, especially during the pandemic. My wardrobe is bursting.
I just love your videos 😍😍

Aw appreciate you x
Hello~ can I ask what size you are wearing for the linen sage top and pants and the first sill pink outfit? Thank you!
Of course! Size smalls in all (I'm usually a size medium bottoms but since they're both elastic waist bands, the teams recommended this size and I was shocked that there was a flattering amount of space for my hips/bum)! x
Where is the shirt you are wearing from?
How do the Aloha sandals fit? I’ve been eyeing them because they’re so pretty but I’m worried about the straps since I have average-wide feet 😭
I have average-wide feet too and they're actually really comfy! Not super narrow which I appreciate x
soo cute! may i ask what sizes you got in the Vetta top and skirt please? :)
of course! I got a small in both (sent measurements to the team and they recommended small - but for extra room in the bust they said to size up)! Hope this helps x
How did you find the sizing of Vetta Capsule? I've never bought from them so I'm trying to figure out whether I'll fit a S or an M :D
I got a small in both after asking their team for size recommendations cause I wasn't sure either! I'm usually a medium in bottoms but they recommended a small in the skirt which I'm so glad I went for cause the waist and hips/bum fit perfectly (also got a small in the top cause I'm smaller chested and only 5'4) - hope this helps!! x
Out of curiosity, what sizes did you get in the Free Label Sage pants and top?
A small in both! I usually go for a medium in bottoms to have space for my hips/bum but the team recommended a small because of my waist size and it is perfect!! I'm like a 42" at the widest part of my hips/bum if that helps 🥰
Daniella/Jess at Free Label are super helpful if you have sizing Qs so definitely reach out to them!
@@inspiroue thanks! I think we have similar measurements so that's very helpful!
Where do you go thrifting? The shops that I go to do not have such high-quality pieces.
Everywhere! It's super hit or miss so I used to pop in often but quickly (haven't been in a while cause of lockdown here though)
Where are the black joggers from? They look soooo comfy.
linked in the description box! Baserange bought via new classics (they’re old so not sure if available anymore) x
Hi hi! :) How large is your entire wardrobe? Like number of pieces?
I’m doing a closet declutter soon so that can hopefully give you a sense of it! 70% of my closet is thrifted but because I ran a shop, I also have leftover inventory so will sell some soon
Hi! Great video! If you ever decide to sell your vetta satin wrap top in blush/pink, please consider selling to me (3:14 of video). 😢 I lost mine and was heartbroken to find out vetta capsule closed… it’s my favorite piece ever 💖
