I never put any comments but jeez you are a genius. Thank you so much
Living in some parts of Africa can dampen a full expression of fashion. Like I love mini skirts but my age and social environment has an impact on my choices.
I understand, but I hope you wear what you like, regardless of adversity
@@lOlA-hl4pz I get that...and there are people who do that. But there was an incident maybe a year or 2 ago in my country...Kenya...where women were undressed by men on the street if they were deemed to be too indecent. To the point where they were hiding and other women had to protect them by covering them up with blankets they were carrying. The thinking of these men was that if you're wearing barely anything, you might as well walk naked. There was a whole protest about it (#mybodymychoice) and it's stopped. But the fear is there. That's why I have a fear of walking downtown...among other things.
Also, this is just a personal thing, I fear that if I dress up and pop out my nice accessories and shoes, it's like asking to be robbed. I'm not sure if this is actually true since I'm more of a home-body
Anita K. 78 im so sorry these incidents happened. women should be able to wear what they want without being in fear of assault
Anita K. 78 Hey girl,Im from South Africa and I absolutely understand what you are going through,we also have a very high femicide rate.What I do to be able to pop with my style and still stay safe is have “safe” clothes.Ill wear what I like but if Im in a bad area or know I have to go through a bad area or near bad people Ill wear those over my clothes,safe clothes include shawls,big jackets,big coats and things to blend in with the crowd.Also dress however you want,be bold and be original,I live in the land of flip flops and board shorts so stepping away from the rest was a huge risk for me but being you will be the best decision you will make, good luck gorgeous,I wish you the best and stay safe!!
@Trisha ks exactly, in India I'm scared to wear gold aesthetic chains, cause of the chain snatchers 🤷♀.
High waisted boyfriend jeans = girlfriend jeans 😉
This comment must not go unnoticed😩
I love high waist jeans because they don't scratch that your inner thighs when you walk.
Are you serious?! I didn’t fuckin know thissss
Wait rlly
I knew you are gonna mention a boatneck neckline
This was so helpful. I've struggled with my wardrobe for years, wasted sooo much money on clothes I never wear.
Yes thank you so much!
YOUR HAIRRRRRR.... I AM IN LOVE😫😫😫😫😫❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love how you said "honor your body type". While I disagree with people going "you can only wear X because of y on your body", I also hate people going "lul, wear whatever!" The first is very restrictive. The second encourages sloppiness in appearance. Wearing what you like but picking it in a color/cute/length that flatters you is the best approach/ As you said, it honors you! You get to wear what you want AND look lovely doing it in YOUR way.
I have watched many "Find your style" videos and this is probably the most helpful and realistic video of them all.
Good going, Asia!
LOVE THIS VIDEO
Also as a side note, if you find something that is a "no" for your body type, but you love how it looks, well
1- fuck it wear it
2- see what category this is in, look around in this category by online window shopping and identify what elements of the piece you like. This can be generalised to what you are looking for in your personal style, because you like it so much that even though its a "no", its a "yes" in your books.
I've been doing all of these for the last few months and I've discovered a lot about my personal style. I've even found some stores that I consider my "go to" for the different faces of my style.
Oh Another tip for defining your style is to consider your lifestyle, if you work in an office you're going to need to invest in office appropriate attire that complement your personal style.
Honestly....when people ask about me and my vibe....*hands them my Pinterest*
I always enjoy watching your fashion videos, but this one was especially insightful, and extremely easy to implement. My fav tip was the one about observing your environment and lifestyle to see how they may influence your personal style. It was cool to actually see how your time in japan influenced your love for plaid.
I already know I’m going to love this video🤪
Hey asia you could do a video all about the impacts of fast fashion and ethical fashion xxx
Loved it! Also liked “spend more, buy less” l def be incorporating that!
Knowing the difference between ‘essentials’ and ‘basics’ is the best advice ever . Knowing that is going to help me so much !
At my 30s and wanted to refresh my style. Love what u shared. thank u!
breaking out so bad like a pebbled dirt drive, been rewatching all ur videos to clear me up 🙏🙏💜
I've been trying to define my style for ages and this video is amazing!! You got a new subscriber 💕
This is video is filled with so many great tips! Thanks for including the time stamps 👌🏼
I looooove that you paid attention to fast fashion and where your money actually goes. Since a year or so I am more conscious of what I buy, who made the clothes, and what the carbon footprint is. Thank you for using your voice to inform more people about this!
thank you sm for that note on your shopping philosophy of spending more, and buying less! thx for supporting sustainability
This was great! Love the idea that you can find a personal style without going and buying a bunch of clothes and then never using them.👌👌
Girl I’ve been watching hundreds of these types of videos but this one was the best one by far
This ACTUALLY helped so much. I have an action plan rather than just you need these etc and try a new style each week. I loved the bit about looking at your past and culture.
This is sooo helpful. Honestly finding your fashion style is difficult and takes time but this video makes the task easier and gives me hope I'll narrow down my style soon!
I've been watching a ton of personal style videos lately and this one is so informative and hits on so many things that the others haven't. Loved this!
That info about the difference between essentials and basics was really helpful👌
🤯 wow, I've never heard styling explained this way before. I feel so much more prepared to create the wardrobe I love. Thanks 💕
This was the most helpful video to watch before my closet purging!! Thank you so much Asia
There are a lot of videos about personal style out there, bu this one has to be the most original and helpful one so far! I feel like you really took your time to give tips that haven't been heard of before. Thank you for this guide! ✨
this was like a well-detailed infomercial. i learned so much lol. i definitely do the pinterest and instagram thing! it's actually really helpful. thanks for this video, it was an absolute lifesaver :)
your videos are always so insightful! thanks so much for putting in the effort, i honestly appreciate it so much
15:07 that's what I do! i'm still a student with a limited amount of pocket money so I can't splurge on high quality pieces only but I try to do it as often as possible! thank you for doing so as well, I definitely related to what you said about people nowadays purchasing fast fashion
LOVE the basics vs. essentials point!!
you know yourself so well. i love it
So informative and organized! Love how skilled you are at this type of instruction
you’re the only one who actually wants to help not just for subscribers. definitely subscribed!
Thank you for a really articulate and helpful video! I really appreciate your emphasis on ethical shopping, and I found that you did a great job of not sounding preachy while still impressing the message on your viewers.
You are such an inspiration for so many people and I'm really proud of you, keep doing what you do💞💞
I needed this at least 5 years ago 🤷🏾♀️ lol I really love your videos 🌹
this is literally the only video on this topic that is useful and original. 17 mins well spent :)
Truly pleased. Absolute perfection. 🙌🏼
This is such an awesome video! I've watched many videos and read many books about finding your style, and you've talked about things that I've not yet come across or considered. I was like damn let me get out a pen and paper and catch these jewels!
Wow this was a very refreshing take on fashion and personal style! Thank you 👍
I really in love with your energy, it's just so energetic and so freaking positive 🎉
this video is so helpful ! thank you very much ✨✨
your videos are SO GOOD. The way you explain/describe things is so clear and easily understood! The points you mention are also quite original
I love your personality!
as usual your videos are super helpful so thank you so much 🧡💕
Love how this video comes out right after I look at your Pinterest to get more pins for my "closet inspo" board!! 😂
I definitely have the problem of figuring out how to honor my body type, being plus-sized! I really love the look of minimal chic, high-waisted things that are meant to accentuate the waist and curves, but when they're on me, they only seem to accentuate my stomach. :/ It's like I can only find fashion inspo that suits either my style or size, and not both. Not trying to complain, but rather hoping for some tips from other viewers!
Love, love, love this 💖
You made some great points. I am a high/low end shopper.
“Don’t dress for your body type, but dress to honor your body type” love it.
why are you just so pretty it’s so unfair 😩😩
Love the tip of dressing to honor your body type and basics vs essentials
Amazing video, this helped so much! 👏🏾💕
I was shopping on some website and I saw they had a lot of boatnecks and I instantly thought of you lol. This was a great video! Thanks for the fashion advice
Amazing video❤️❤️ Thanks girl✨
Your accent is life ❤️❤️❤️
these style videos are soooooo helpful
I love this video idea I’ve been looking for stuff like this😘
Really needed this video 😂👌🏼❤
Very interesting to see your style journey and how you identify what you like and why. Also explains why your accent flips around :D as someone who also moved around a lot growing up, can relate
This was such a great video. Even though I'm mostly sure of my style this was still pretty useful. Reorganizing my pinterest now lol.
omg Asia i would love a « nails routine » please 🤩 sending you love from Paris! ♥️!
It's 4:11am and my mind is blown. So helpful
This was so informative! Can you maybe do a video or your favorite ethical brands/stores if there isn't one already?
This is a video I can watch multiple times!
I loveee your videos ❤❤❤
Asia i miss your videos!! I hope you upload more videos soon! xx
omg gurlllll the second I click on your video I'm already in love with you!!!!! your video helps me a lot!!!

Love the video I’m still watching it! Ily and ur so pretty!💕😊👍
that is a recipe... for deesaster lolll. love youuu ❤️❤️
high prices don't mean high quality.
Most brands, especially sports brands like Nike, Adidas etc. are produced by the same sweat shops [child labour] as cheap no name clothes like from Wal-Mart or which ever retailers you have in America.
Your hair is so pretty
Hands down this is fricken AMAZING 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖 (thank u SOOO much💞)
I'm back with A nother vidior! Makes me freaking happy*
Wow, you are amazing!
Love it!
I love this makeup look of yoursss can you plss do a tutorial? 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thanks. I really needed this ! I want have The style i like. Until now i was scared to wear the style i liked. I am working on it !
you are like a fashionable older sister lol thank you
Please do a "fashion that I hate" video! For me personally, yes boat neckline is up there with empire waist and womens t shirt cut
I always loved Japanese uniforms from watching anime
This video was great
So helpful ❤️ I also used Instagram & Pinterest for style inspos. 😊 Thanks for drawing the line between basics & essentials. ✨
I peeped @aerincreer and @simplycie on your Instagram saved. I love them!!
Hi Asia, when I hear what your fashion philosophy I really wouldn’t recommend shopping at zara. Zara is honestly 1 of the worst fast fasion stores. They used to make their clothes in international waters because there weren’t any laws there... Just imagine what conditions these people had to work in. Also the owner is rumoured to be in the maffia haha.
the way you said disaster sjsjsjsjjsjsjsjz
I always think your Aussie at the start and I get excited hahaha
best tipss..
Who else says with her “WHATS GOOD!!” 😭😭🙋🏽♀️ I love you Asia ✨
i want to thank you for your advice about buying expensive and good quality clothes rather than cheap and low-quality clothes because it's really helping me! just like i intend to change the way i dress, i wanted to find a way to buy less too. so now, thanks to you, i know how to change my shopping philosophy! i don't need 30 sweatshirts, right? plus, thinking about the impact on the environment or people before buying is really important but it's also something i tend to forget :(
but, concerning my style, i already have a board on pinterest in order to find what i like, but when i look at it, i notice it looks a lot like all the clothes i already own or at least it looks like the style i already have. i think it's maybe because i'm afraid to step out of my comfort zone, but what can i do about it? do you have any advice about that?
I really like your personality or like the way you talk and explain things and this video was really interesting
Thank youu
Why do i think you look like Lisa from blackpink anyway you're beautiful
I love Pinterest thanks for the tips
A NEED! THANKS, MOM! ❤
plz do a vedio on ur basics and essentials
Your Australian accent is amazing
