      Copyright issues are so egregious that it’s not funny. Keep up the good work. It’s insane people will take down channels where there was blood, sweat, and tears into it while channels that are problematic or steal from other creators have a bigger push.

    It’s so crazy how so many people make everything an aesthetic. Everyone looks the same even on The Housewives it’s the same storylines, same house style the same type of wigs the same style of clothing, and when the girls are new and don’t look and dress like they do on that show they talk down on them make fun of what they wear like a bunch of grown adult bull ies. So many people are like sheep

    What's so annoying is the fact that these people believe they have the authority to tell people what to wear and try to shame them when they don't look like a clone of the next person. I'm also sick and tired of these lace patent and leather wigs and the 5-dollar foot long baby hairs so many people look the exact same. Selling a $3 Trader Joes bad for $1000 is crazy and anyone who buys it is even crazier

    This is why I started upcycling. I made a goal to stop buying new clothes. Trying my best to make or at least upcycle everything I wear. I really want to stand out and be unique, but it’s so hard because as soon as someone doesn’t smthn unique these fast fashion companies turn it into a product, it’s can be so disheartening, but I’ve been finding a lot of TH-camrs like you bringing up these topic, giving upcycling skills, ideas and that ground me when I’m overwhelmed by the chaos. I’m grateful that I have a sense of self, it took a while to build, but as an artist I think it’s important to not lose myself. Also as person that didn’t grow up with financial privileges, I LITERALLY cannot understand how they can buy so much 😭😭😭

    This is why it's important to embrace your authentic style which brings out your personality and beauty, which is what we're lacking in this day of age due to certain fashion trends that are pretty lack lustering and people not following their own sense of style due to popularity contest and becoming followers.

    Everything you said was facts. Something I noticed is alot of these women get bbls because they want quick money and fame and basically selling themselves. What is angering is how some people think everyone with curves has plastic shapes and will ask someone "who did their body", I've had to curse out so many people for thinking that, I remember having to tie a sweater around my waist as a young girl because of grown adult na sty pdf men ex ualizing me so those comments infuriate me

    I loved the original video, and I know this video is going to be as good as the last one.
    As someone who is slowly beginning their journey in fashion, as cliche as it sounds, but I get my inspiration from TV, movies, or even magazines. You have to start somewhere. I’m obsessed with the vibrant colors/dark aesthetic that was 90s fashion, and how well put those outfits were. TikTok is easily an app where people don’t know how to stand out and rather be a follower than seek out what suites them.. idk lol.

      Thank you babe 🩷 it’s not cliche, we all pull inspiration from somewhere but make it our own, it’s when people are carbon copies when it becomes weird. I love old movies, tv shows and magazines from the 70s,80s and 90s I still have a bunch of old magazines.

    Alot of the parents are too busy still acting like teenagers and wanting to be their child's friend because of their own unhealed childhood issues and don't realize you're not helping your child at all because you're removing the respect they should have for you, another thing people don't talk about is how teen pregnancy affects these children. Some of these parents pulling up to the parent teacher conferences are 25 with 10-year-olds and having a child that young is always an issue because they grow up more like siblings than parent/child. Everyone wants to be a rapper, influencer, singer etc because of fame and laziness, not even because it's their passion, some people are starved for fame and attention

    This is why I will never take these people seriously when they call my aesthetic "dated" or "cringe" for dressing alternative. They were likely dressing the exact same 2-3 years ago, or likely wanted to. Dress how you want guys. Life is too short, and money is too scarce right now. I've only ever received hate online, irl people compliment me.

    Fashion should be about expressing yourself. It’s weird that instead of trying to express themselves, they are expressing other people’s ideas of what they should look like. I make AI art and I use different eras for inspiration, so your channel really helps me there. I’m hoping one day to put my art on journals or full size print and maybe they’ll encourage other girls to have their own fashion again. Lovely video ❤️

    • @iconicallyiconic

      Absolutely! I agree with this. Inspiration is inevitable but I do think some people mix up inspiration with imitation. I love hearing that and you’re going to achieve that goal, just never lose sight or focus on what you’re trying to achieve, also move in silence sometimes people’s thoughts and opinions can alter what you’re trying to accomplish🩷✨

      @@pimpinpanba8799 I do draw and paint as well. AI art is just another medium I chose to explore, especially when I started using it last year and saw how lackluster, and frankly, deformed the images generated from the AI looked. Other Black women had the same complaints and called for action to be taken on how the AI was trained. Even articles were written about this. I think they did not know that we would want to see Black women in the AI space and because of our efforts, the art is getting to be of more high quality. This is also why I make my prompts distinct so there is more variety in the images created.

      I understand and I agree, but recently a lot of the art featuring Black women are made by AI. Most artists whose works are used in training are non Black which severely limits the quality of AI images featuring Black women. Unfortunately, there just isn’t a big enough space of Black women artists and images of Black women in the art world. This is why more Black women are using AI to fill the gap. There are even Black artists uploading their own work into the AI image generators to train the AI themselves. The more prominently we display our image, the more likely that our influence as Black women in the art community will grow. I do use other art mediums as well but AI has become a useful source for so many of us. There is even a space called melanated ai where Black artists who use AI can sell their art. The market is there but the art isn’t and for now, AI is our best option to keep our image out there.

    As someone who works in cosmetic dental, please always do your research before getting veneers, I have a more conservative view on dentistry and often would recommend braces and teeth whitening instead of veneers because once you get started on the veneer journey, you're in for a lifetime of dental visits and rotation of changing them, it's never as simple as just reattachment when they fall off, healthy, natural teeth will always be more attractive than veneers.
    These trends are so insane to me, we should be wearing fashion to express ourselves, not to express micro trends. You should use trends are inspiration, not to be a copy paste.

    What you said about these companies paying these influencers to push their products like with the whole " run don't walk to get " blah blah. I really believe they pay them to put that out there and amp up how " in style " they are. the same way it came out a while ago that TikTok were pushing certain content creators and inflating their numbers. Also playing with your teeth to look like everyone else makes no sense to me
