  • Hi all!!!! If ya wanna save 30% off of your first thredUP order, make sure to head to: bit.ly/thredUPapril22_RACHEL
    And use my code "RACHEL"!
    Thank you so much thredUP for sponsoring this video!
    H'YELLOOOO fellow kids, look at me, being hip n' trendy! This is an idea that I've had written down in COUNTLESS 'idea journals' for years, and never felt like I was in the right place to do it. So I decided to finally just go for it!!! I spent a week dressing up from the 1910's to 1970's, and dang it was exhausting but also so worth it. I came out of it with a couple new styles that I'm totally gonna continue using AND some new favorite items of clothing.
    ANYWHO, this was a beast to make and edit so I really hope you enjoy!
    I LOVE YOU ALL!

    Back when I was 15 or 16 (around the late 2000’s) I remember one night I was sitting in a local coffee shop waiting for a friend to get off from work when two older ladies came through the door. They must have been in their 60’s or 70’s but they were dressed head to toe in British 1910’s fashion. My jaw hit the floor as they both strode so casually and confidently in what I thought was the most stylish outfits I had ever seen. It was as though they had just popped out of Mary Poppins with the boots, the coats, the button down vests, everything. I still think of those two ladies to this day as the prettiest women I have ever seen in my life and I wish that when I am old I can wear my choice fashion just as beautifully and confidently as they did. No matter what you’re wearing or decade it’s from, so long as you feel good in it you’re beautiful!

    1:32 "I'm just, I don't really have a style." I've found the more I try to replicate a specific aesthetic the less I enjoy what I wear. The more I dress in what I like, the more my actual look emerges. Your style exists. Just because someone else hasn't slapped a label on it is irrelevant. You do you.

      TLDR: I agree!
      Oh my god I was literally getting dressed ten minutes ago and I would put something on and I’d be like “I like it… but it’s not cottegecore” and I’d take it off. It took me 1 hour of getting dressed to realize a. I just don’t have that kind of wardrobe yet and b. Labeling my wardrobe as a certain aesthetic REALLY limits myself as opposed to simply saying “I just really like this sweater and those pants :)”. It’s great to look at these aesthetics AT FIRST when first redesigning your style but you need to get to a point where you now know what you like and just start wearing chorus’s without strict labels. Like Rachel started out with straight up vintage but as she got older and experimented more with clothes, she is just wearing what she likes which happens to take inspo from vintage styles (trousers, long a-line skirts, puff sleeve tops, etc.). Rachel Maksy is my #1 style icon but I am now sprinkling in little aspects of me into my wardrobe mainly with color like wearing multi color sweaters or very bright colored dresses. Sorry this is long I just have a lot to say :)

    I was at a grocery store in full lacy Edwardian attire (hat included) and this little girl behind me said, "Mom, why is that girl so pretty?" and I turned around and said hello. We talked, introduced ourselves, and even saw each other later in the store. She said "hi Sarah!" and I said "Hi, B!" (not saying her first name just in case. You never know). It was the cutest thing ever 😍

      I've had similar things happen to me when I wear my historically inspired clothing and hat, or when I decorate my hair with ribbons, braids, dreads and beads. There has been the odd weird look, but the vast, vast majority (at least 90%) of reactions have all been smiles and compliments! Dressing the way I love honestly gives me the kind of confidence almost nothing else does. It's bringing my inner creativity to the outside, like its own type of art.

      That said, I too have been trying to cultivate YT creators that are just relaxing. No (overt) politics. No inter-channel drama. Things that aren't quite "just a vlog" but it's their channel focus AND sprinkled with what actually feels like a real day for them. I've got a couple of these that are just "there" and while I might be more than familiar with some of the things they're doing, I'm learning a bit AND laughing a little too.

    When I used to be more part of my local fashion community as a jewelry designer the very first runway I did, and some thing I really wanted to try doing more seriously, is called post apocalyptic through the decades. Because my jewelry has a lot of steampunk vibes, the idea was what if we hit the end of the world in each of these fashion time periods, what might the post apocalyptic styles look like as we tried to reclaim our society in that decade. It wasn’t perfect, but I had a lot of fun trying.

    The 40's was so sweet and so cute!!!
    The 50's was great to hear how your tastes started and change.
    The 60's was such an adorable look! When you put your hair up in a pony tail I was like oh yes! (Kinda thought you were going to try out your Austin Powers glasses with it! )

    your hair is actually just the right length for a lot of 20s hair (psyche bun, faux bobs, swirl updo, mary pickford half up, headphone buns, figure-eigth braided bun, low updo) it actually gets a bit more finecky by the mid 30s, long haired updos are a thing in the 30s (mainly worn at the nape of the neck in the early 30s, around a, sometimes faux, crown braid in the middle and upsweapt and highly technical by the end of the decade)

I had the cutest dress that a cousin in the UK sent to me. it looked like a black jumper dress with black and white checked top. Made of hopsacking, I think. it was a very forgiving, loosely woven fabric.
