"Being in lockdown kinda makes you rethink your whole taste and style." Dude you ain't kidding, I feel like I'm having an existential crisis lately and lockdown just sped up the process.
5:36 the polka dot romper with butt cape is SO cute on you. I can't believe you found that. It's the perfect solution for when you are not comfortable wearing shorts in public- the back and sides of your legs are still covered but you have all the comfort of shorts. AND you can sit on a hot car seat or park bench without burning your butt. Adorable and practical. Butt capes need to become a thing.
When you put the vest on and used the black sash for a tie.....PERFECTION. wanted this one to be longer...well I always want your videos to be longer. Love you!
Me: *sees the long flannel dress with the velvet belt* There's no way that outfit could get any cuter. Rachel: *throws a velvet vest over it and uses the velvet belt as a neck tie like a badass* Me: Okay it got way cuter.
I live in Wales......so our seasons are Winter, Flowery Autumn, Green leaves and hay Autumn, Autumn, then back to Winter 😄 My partner had to put longjohnson under their work clothes today 🤣
I little live with in walking distance of a beach...and almost never go. Then someone will talk me into it and I’ll go and promptly remember why I don’t. But I do indeed like the butt cape 👍
Girl, I suffer from several severe anxiety disorders, and one thing that consistently (so far without fail) that calms me down, while also being happily entertained and transported to a magical yet strangely attainable land and time, is your channel. You are two years younger than me, but I want to be you when I grow up.
Rachel: "I want to have a few pieces that are different, and by different I mean-" Me: "not earth tones?" Rachel: "Not earth tones" Just wanted to say that you introduced me to thredup a long while ago, and I love it! Thank you!
I’ve been finding myself drawn to denim and gingham a lot lately...luckily my husband has been very complimentary on my “farmer” and “pic-nique” chic. 😂
I read that somewhere - i think it was some town in ireland - they started that trend during lockdown to take out the trash in your ballgown :) That was such a cute idea i thought!
everyone in the comments is talking about outfits, but i utterly adore the aesthetic of your house, especially the cupboard/secretary behind you during shots of outfits. it is beautiful
Hi Rachel! I cannot tell you how much you inspire me everyday. I started to make up my own style in 7th grade and at first I didn't care what people said about me. But when I was a freshman the bullies really got me. Basically I would be history/Disney/character/bound(?) on a daily basis. So when the bullying really started to get to me I stopped. I went to H&M and bought a whole bunch of sweats and wore those every day for about a two weeks . I had been addicted to your videos and I watched your hip dips video. It had actually come a out a few months before I watched it. Anyway it touched me so much that I realized I was so bored. So I actually burned it in my back yard I still wear my weird clothes and mish mashed aesthetics I love you so so so much
Did you know that bullies ALWAYS have skid marks in their underware? I know this is true. It is what I thought about when I was young and they tried it on me.
@@rachelmaksy we had a Culture party when I was flatting with Friends ..lived in a squalled cheap dive..so decorating was always a free for all ... turned one room into an Italian Picnic scene ..actually STAPLED PICNIC to the ceiling including a huge red and white gingham cloth hahahah
For the past couple of years I have had two wardrobes. One lived at my mom's house and consisted of old clothes (I think I still have jeans I bought 15 years ago) and heavy winter garments. The other wardrobe lived in whichever warm climate area I happened to be studying/working in. Now that my postdoc position is over and I am temporarily living at home again, I suddenly have all of my clothes in one place and no space to put everything. Part of me wants to purge my clothes to make room, part of me thinks that is too much effort, and my inner dragon is urging me to hoard all of my clothes, because I might someday need those jeans from Middle School.
😆😂🤣 I get you! I really crave some of my clothes from junior high, in the 1960s! They'd be so in style now. Sigh. Of course common sense me says, "if you could get your expanded butt in them!" Oh well.
@@sarahmongold7217 My problem is that I don't actually wear 50% of my clothes. I just keep them around as backups at my mom's house, because I used to come home to visit from school and not want to bring a lot of stuff in my suitcase.
When you were talking about putting on the vest with the longer dress I was like "Oh of COURSE Rachel would-" And then you put it on and I was speechless. Good execution. It really brought the outfit up to another level.
The Zara dress and the Victorian inspired one after it are literally everything. I need them in my life. I have such a hard time finding things in thredUP, which is unfortunate because I love the idea. I almost always have to have bust measurements since I’m rather large chested. You look amazing in all of those items though. Hope you enjoy them!
Love them all but most especially the black dress. On another note, you inspired me today. I bought a vintage sheet second hand but like new. I'm going to make a day dress (house dress). They were popular during WWll. Flour companies sold their flour in fabric sacks. One would only need two sacks of the same fabric to make a child's dress or shirt but they might need to find several sacks of the same fabric to make a day dress. A little history for you! Thanks for the inspiration!
I was rummaging around TKMaxx (TJMaxx) before all this pandemic business, looking for earthy coloured jumpers (sweaters), when I pulled out something orange. It turned out to be the same puff-sleeved turtle neck jumper from the beginning of your video here. I can’t tell you how happy I was and how fast I slammed my money down on the counter. I now call it my ‘Maksy’ top. I get to be a pumpkin with you! 🎃 💓
I was thinking of the teacher in love with the gorilla from Over the Garden Wall. I wanted to sing the ABC song but I dont even remember what A stands for.
🛍 Totally terrific thrift haul. 💟 Your selection of gingham pieces & polka dots w/big glam sun hat. 🖤 The Zara dress w/black waistcoat & sash used as a tie: Perfect. 🖤 The boobala cup bodice & butt cape. That playsuit idea is so flattering & gives the best of both worlds. ☆Cute & clever to put a skirt over dresses, but typically it's too hot in LA to double up on layers like that.🌡 🦉You're such a hoot & a pleasure to watch👀. So jealous of your mad styling skills & ability to build a multi-period vintage wardrobe w/more mod pieces. I stand in awe of your talents & creativity❣ You look ultra feminine in all those earth tones w/styles that skew toward masculine too. Admire your commitment & passion to them. Entranced by the notion of color & pattern, but in reality have spent boatloads of cash on garments I've NEVER worn. Much better to live vicariously through your bolder choices.😉
I have a request!! Maybe a list of your top twenty favorite movies? I love movies, and I'm always interested in what other people like. Might be fun with quarantine going on. 😀 Love your channel and fashion sense. 😉
“Not that I use Christmas decorations as accessories” Me: [has flashback of when I essentially reenacted that one scene from Auntie Mame and took a fake bird off the tree and stuck it on my hat] haha yeah.. who would do something like that...
Rachel, your message was heard and understood. ☎️. “Hostage rescue? Rachel is in a hostage situation . . . She told me in code. . . She did a whole video with minimal earth tones!! Listen to me-she modeled PINK and ORANGE!!! For the love of Mike, hurry!!”
The red gingham top with the high waisted shorts combined with your glamourous red hair was like Giligan's Island picnic vibes: Marianne and Ginger combined.
This is a genius idea on so many levels. Watching you have so much fun with your prizes inspired some additional thoughts on your selections. 1. That rust sweater is gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. Do you have some outrageous necklace to put with it? Something maybe Aztec-y or other south-of-the-border oversized, inspirational piece? That collar just screams for it. 2. The gingham check minidress. I share your sense of being too uncovered, although I'm 72 and SHOULD be. You, OTOH, are young, beautiful, and have a spectacular figure. That said, modesty comes in all forms and nobody should ever be pressured to wear something that makes them uncomfortable. If you feel the hem's too short how about some wide eyelet trim? You can find it inexpensively on old bedspreads and curtains (at least that's where I got mine.) If it's 7" or wider you not only have your longer skirt, but some makeshift sleeves as well! 3. You were just right on the strapless orange print dress. I join you in mourning the lack of fullness in maxi lengths, and the white overskirt is a great choice, but why not hike it up so the underskirt shows too? The fine and ancient art of skirt-hiking can be accomplished by several easy-to-less easy ways; the easiest being the dressmaker's secret weapon--SAFETY PINS! 4. The henly. Well, not so much a henly lover, but you did great with it and now I have ideas what to do with my awful pink one. Put it with a vest, belt, trousers, and a fedora and we can go explore archaeological sites for living mummies. Thank you so much for the link to Thred-Up. I've been wanting to try them for a while. I've lost so much weight under lockdown that all my clothes are SWIMMING on me.
So, of the ginghams you got, the vibes I'm seeing are: The Whole Picnic Beach Dorothy and French Fry Basket Paper (ok not technically gingham, I'm just blanking on the word for that type of check pattern)
You have become my favourite channel in the span of 4 days and have also encouraged me to start sewing! Just purchased my first sewing machine ever today - I'm so nervous but so excited!
You should totally do an episode where you put all the different styles in a hat and draw one, then style it out of only your closet-that would be fun to watch!🌹❤️
OK WAIT OMG first off: Love all of the styling for each piece you have such MWAH chefs kiss taste in clothing. Ok Second: Idk if you've ever seen Far From the Madding Crowd but that movie is my entire aesthetic and the second you put the lovely black vest over the flannelish dress UGHH it literally looked exactly like an outfit Bathsheba wears and It gave me so much serotonin.
I have been finding myself adding autumnal and halloween photos on pinterest lately, dreaming of cozy and spooky vibes, and longing for that orange world
I wasn't questioning my wardrobe until I saw that Zara dress with the vest and tie. It looks so good, omg. I don't know what kind is aesthetic that outfit could be, but that one. Definitely that one.
I think my favourite part thing about your videos is how the humour and honestly just makes everything so relatable. Sometimes I find myself getting so intimidated by incredible looking vintage folks on insta, and they always look so damn good, and I manage to convince myself that I don't fit in there (obviously this is not their fault, my brain can just be a jerk). But you're style is just *chef's kiss*, but you're also so funny and aren't afraid to share or laugh about the bits that aren't glamorous, and it gets me all inspired and shit.
Usually I don't like Zara BUT this dress is really good! And vampire black dress is absolutely beautiful. I agree with you, Rachel how awesome to wear the long skirts.
“If you’re thinking of trying on Autumn clothes when it’s 90 degrees, strongly advise against it”. Me: mwuahaha! Mortal fool! I am anemic and therefore LIVE in sweaters year round!! 😂🌻
That romper with the cape is stunning and so fun. And I’m living for all the orange and the Lestat vamp dress (I’m a Persephone aesthetic so autumnal and wintry vibes forever)
Ngl I immediately liked the video after the intro joke 10/10 comedy 😂 Also I 100% NEED to know where you got that amazing wide bride straw hat from, I’m in love

What is the brand of that black dress??? I have terrible eyesight and I NEED TO LOOK FOR IT
@@skittlespan looks like it could be Fresar, I'll come back to you
What brand is the blue polka dot shorts cape thing?? 😍
@@EmanuelleMaroni I tried looking but couldn't find anything under that name. CURSED with bad eyes here I can't read lol
People: Haha i look like a snac
Rachel: Lol I look like a whole picnic
Let's all just admit that Rachel is your Pinterest board in human form
I feel attacked by your comment 😅
I feel so called out
Yes she is, I won't even try to deny it 😅
So true (so guilty). 😂
Rachel is such a perfect representation of my personal style that sometimes I'm concerned I'm going to end up just copying her! 😆
When Rachel put the velvet vest on with the Zara dress.
Me (Channeling my inner Kronk): Oh yeah, it's all coming together.
THAT made the look. It was awesome. 😱😯😍
Multiple "yass Queen!"s were uttered at that moment.
This made me laugh out loud and also YUS🤣👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
AND THEN SHE USED THE WAISTBELT AS A TIE I'm losing it!!!
I definitely heard his voice 😂
I feel like that burnt orange top would look cute doing a mock vintage Velma.
Oh..a whole "butt naked" vintage of the Scooby gang!
That was my first thought! I seriously thought that's what she was going to say.
"Boobie Cups and Butt Cape." PLEASE just have a series of you describing clothing because that's comedy gold. You are a gem!
Yessss please please! 😂😍
I want butt capes on all my clothes now.
"Boobie Cups and Butt Cape" sounds like a name for an animated series. 10/10 would watch! xD
The name of her first book, for sure
Rachel: "It's got a..."
Me: "Train."
Rachel: "Buttcape."
Buttcape it is!
Me, a broke college student that feels bad about buying socks: “I shall live vicariously through you!”
I feel this. I splurged the other day to buy 10 pairs of socks for $5
I bouuught a sweeeeeater for 3$ and its cropped and pastel tye dye ahahahahaahha
I felt this in my soul
It doesn’t get any better when you are a parent! 😉 Child needs socks? No prob. I need socks? Oh no can’t splurge on that!
I feel you I'm homeless and watching this shit
The copper sweater whispering “autumn can totally start in July” is ME right now
can we just take a moment to appreciate rachels outfit???? shes rockin it!
Ikr
Aww thank you hehe 🙈❤️
Done!!
That black gingham is spot on amazing!
Rachel is so pretty she would fab in a burlap potato sack. Earth tone.
"Being in lockdown kinda makes you rethink your whole taste and style." Dude you ain't kidding, I feel like I'm having an existential crisis lately and lockdown just sped up the process.
I audibly shouted YES when she put that black vest over the Zara dress and used the belt as a tie
Same!
Yeah, I usually don't talk to my videos but in that moment The Gay could not be contained
I've been trying to figure out if Rachel is life goals or wife goals, but in that moment I knew. I'M BI AS FUCK
All the above
The Jo March of it all 😄
Rachel: buys a dress.
Also Rachel: puts a skirt over the dress.
Free petticoat!
5:36 the polka dot romper with butt cape is SO cute on you. I can't believe you found that. It's the perfect solution for when you are not comfortable wearing shorts in public- the back and sides of your legs are still covered but you have all the comfort of shorts.

I am IN LOVE with this look.
When you put the vest on and used the black sash for a tie.....PERFECTION. wanted this one to be longer...well I always want your videos to be longer. Love you!
I was cheering for a white petticoat under that too.
I mean when you think about it it's Basically august which is Basically september which is Basically halloween anyway so
Hahaha TRUER words have never been spoken
I just started sewing a Halloween dress because now that I have figured out how to use a pattern I am UNSTOPPABLE haha
exactly how my brain works HAHHAAHHAH
Agreed.
Me: *sees the long flannel dress with the velvet belt*
There's no way that outfit could get any cuter.
Rachel: *throws a velvet vest over it and uses the velvet belt as a neck tie like a badass*
Me: Okay it got way cuter.
I read your comment before watching the video and now that I saw the outfit, I totally agree!!
The judgment in Frodo's eyes had me rolling.
Also, I could watch an entire video of just the bloopers/outtakes. They never dissapoint.
Heehee 🤗🤗🤗
Absolutely!!!
Oh yes please!!!
When she added a vest to that dress and used the waist tie as a neck tie, I was like “her miiIIND”
I just want to look like a 1940s noir set at a carnival and I'm about to murdered as I walk down the beach while children laugh ominously near me
Hahaha AMAZING
so basically Miriam from "Strangers on a train" :D
Whodunnit core
That is a vibe. You know actually that is my new favorite vibe.
Ah yes, the Carnival Of Souls vibe
Does anyone else not even have vintage as their aesthetic but still genuinely enjoy watching Rachel's videos? Just me? 😂
No one:
Absolutely nobody:
Rachel: * puts as skirt on top of a dress *
Me: * stans *
I thought a laced bloomer would lood really cute with the short dress...or skirt with a bolero...
THE WAY MY JAW DROPPED WHEN SHE PUT ON THE VEST AND ADDED THE BELT AS A NECKTIE--GENIUS
Wasn't it? I was thinking the top looked a bit button straining, but the addition of the vest and necktie made it a must have style.
The long dress with the vest is very “Anne of Avonlea at her teaching job” 😊
🤗🤗🤗🤗
oh my goodness yesssssss
The vest and necktie had me like *chef’s kiss.*
"Autumn can totally start in July..."
Exactly!!!
😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️ GIMME ALL THE PUMPKINS
I live in Wales......so our seasons are Winter, Flowery Autumn, Green leaves and hay Autumn, Autumn, then back to Winter 😄
My partner had to put longjohnson under their work clothes today 🤣
I'm endlessly impressed by your ability to style anything well, but ALSO your memory for quotes and pop culture is amazing!
“Not that I would use Christmas decorations as accessories” Rachel we’ve literally seen you glue decorations to hair accessories before.
Yes yes she did I remember that lol
Oh my god you’re right
Stepping out of my comfort zone... out of Earthy tones, first item “copper sweater”! Girl you kill me every time!! 😂🤣
"i could definitely see myself wearing this to the beach.........................if i liked beaches." 😂💀
Imaginary beaches for me 😂😂😂
Beaches be cray, amiright?
@@rachelmaksy On the terrace, in the cool cafe, with a book .... I mean, that's technically 'ON' the beach .... right?

I like beaches... I'd like them better without people, though.

Hahaha YUP and nowhere to wear them to 😂
I'M GUILTY!😢😔
@@rachelmaksyI I had to go for a walk in the forest and to the empty seashore (not a beach!) just to show my new online purchases to the Universe :D
Going grocery shopping is the new catwalk
I read that somewhere - i think it was some town in ireland - they started that trend during lockdown to take out the trash in your ballgown :)
That was such a cute idea i thought!
Also, long skirts and dresses feel sooooo good. Like, they just flounce around you even if they aren't that flouncy. They just hug you.
I see a Rachel Maksey notification and immediately drop everything to watch it.

4. The henly. Well, not so much a henly lover, but you did great with it and now I have ideas what to do with my awful pink one. Put it with a vest, belt, trousers, and a fedora and we can go explore archaeological sites for living mummies.
Thank you so much for the link to Thred-Up. I've been wanting to try them for a while. I've lost so much weight under lockdown that all my clothes are SWIMMING on me.
So, of the ginghams you got, the vibes I'm seeing are:
The Whole Picnic
Beach Dorothy
and French Fry Basket Paper (ok not technically gingham, I'm just blanking on the word for that type of check pattern)
You have become my favourite channel in the span of 4 days and have also encouraged me to start sewing! Just purchased my first sewing machine ever today - I'm so nervous but so excited!
The queen is back!!!
🙈🙈🤗🙈🤗🤗
You should totally do an episode where you put all the different styles in a hat and draw one, then style it out of only your closet-that would be fun to watch!🌹❤️
OK WAIT OMG first off: Love all of the styling for each piece you have such MWAH chefs kiss taste in clothing. Ok Second: Idk if you've ever seen Far From the Madding Crowd but that movie is my entire aesthetic and the second you put the lovely black vest over the flannelish dress UGHH it literally looked exactly like an outfit Bathsheba wears and It gave me so much serotonin.
The Charlotte Russe dress is to DIE for! So cute and definitely giving off 1940s beach day vibes~
I always liked their dresses
When will u set up a store where we can buy your closet?? The people need to know.
I have been finding myself adding autumnal and halloween photos on pinterest lately, dreaming of cozy and spooky vibes, and longing for that orange world
Oh wow this is EXACTLY what I needed 😻 luckily I’m in an area that has very low covid count so I can thrift again! Your style is impeccable my friend
Nice!!!
GINGHAM is beyond sweet ! i sooooooo loved my long gingham dress (and white apron) when i worked in tintypes at knott's berry farm
buys "light and airy" clothes for summer. layers more skirts over them and reduces airiness.
I wasn't questioning my wardrobe until I saw that Zara dress with the vest and tie. It looks so good, omg. I don't know what kind is aesthetic that outfit could be, but that one. Definitely that one.
Um, Lestat DID go goth. Remember that whole, "Gonna reveal myself to the world through joining a band," phase? 😉
Yaassss, looking like a vampire (and than like a vampire hunter) is definitely a vibe 🦇
When you’re too busy watching her old videos to notice that Rachel has posted a new one
I think my favourite part thing about your videos is how the humour and honestly just makes everything so relatable. Sometimes I find myself getting so intimidated by incredible looking vintage folks on insta, and they always look so damn good, and I manage to convince myself that I don't fit in there (obviously this is not their fault, my brain can just be a jerk). But you're style is just *chef's kiss*, but you're also so funny and aren't afraid to share or laugh about the bits that aren't glamorous, and it gets me all inspired and shit.
Rachel: posts
* unidentifiable crashing, someone screaming, sirens in distance, a cat meowing *
Me entering through the door: sup
Usually I don't like Zara BUT this dress is really good! And vampire black dress is absolutely beautiful. I agree with you, Rachel how awesome to wear the long skirts.
“If you’re thinking of trying on Autumn clothes when it’s 90 degrees, strongly advise against it”.
Me: mwuahaha! Mortal fool! I am anemic and therefore LIVE in sweaters year round!! 😂🌻
That romper with the cape is stunning and so fun. And I’m living for all the orange and the Lestat vamp dress (I’m a Persephone aesthetic so autumnal and wintry vibes forever)
Ngl I immediately liked the video after the intro joke 10/10 comedy 😂
Also I 100% NEED to know where you got that amazing wide bride straw hat from, I’m in love
That romper with a cape is INCREDIBLE. I love it so much! MORE THINGS SHOULD HAVE CAPES!! I will die on this hill.

Most people: "tail / train"
Her, an intellectual: "butt cape"
You putting that skirt over the gingham strapless dress just exploded my mind! How have I never thought of that?!?
Rachel: ... to fix this I would probably stick a longer skirt on top
Me who lives in a country with 40+ºC in the summer : 👁👄👁
I love the Victorian style jumper and long black Victorian dress 😍😍😍😍 xxx
