@@alexasunshine83One time I was in the purse section and two teen boys walked by and said, "I hope they don't sell underwear here." I COULD NOT help myself and I said, "They do, it's the rack around the corner." They turned red 😂
My attention was LOCKED on that satin brown skirt. I have been looking for brown midi and maxi skirts for sooooo long and I just found one this weekend but the one you held up was EXACTLY what I’ve been looking for 💔
Now I’m finally at the end. I think you did a great job for the aesthetic. Especially since you also tried finding pieces that you potentially would wear in your own style. 👍🏻
I think part of what made this extra challenging is that the old money aesthetic specifically is about flaunting disposal income/wealth by wearing kind of unwearable, one-off/never-repeated, dry-clean-only type pieces, which really sprouted resistance against your more sustainability-oriented mindset of long-term wearability and overall styling flexibility. You look really awesome in the pieces you picked out so it isn't really a problem of looking or posturing a certain "old money" way or anything, but the aesthetic probably felt really out of your comfort zone because the long term wearability of the pieces weighed heavily on your mind. This was a super thoughtprovoking thrift with me! Thank you for sharing, Alexa.
Alexa! You looked SO CHIC and 100% yourself. I LOVE that you added your own twist to the outfits. The blue suit with the baby tee. Sleek hair and a fun hair accessory. Perfect! That's how it's supposed to be. What I love most about this video is your use of a specific word. POWERFUL! We should feel powerful, beautiful, fantastic, outstanding, the list goes on, in our clothes. 10 out of 10 Alexa. Great job!
You should start these themed videos with shopping in your closet, showing the Pinterest inspo, and then going to the thrift store to get what you need to complete the look
The blue suit looks killer on you! This aesthetic is really similar to what was referred to in the 90’s as “Sloan Ranger”. Think Princess Diana as the poster child of Sloan Ranger.
I think you got the “Old Money” style to a “T”! All of the outfits are amazing, but the blue suit is to die for. Let me know when you get tired of it and are ready to sell it. I want it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The white and blue suits definitely looked good on you. So glad you picked one. I've been around real old money and the suit fits it perfectly. It fits you perfectly, too.
I wonder if the first two looks might look more “old money” if they were a little more undone. So, the belt or the fancy shoes, the white top with the shorts being more unbuttoned and possible wearing a baseball hat. But! Choosing pieces you like and feeling good in what you wear, that is always more important than matching a style *peRfEctly. You’re styling was so fun! Thank you for sharing!
Loved this video !! Especially the fact that you REALLY tried to stick to the aesthetic, even though your personal style shone through the final outfits (and it made me giggle because it's too cute !). Lots of love from France !
The blue suit SUITED 😊😊😊you so well and compliments your eyes and figure! I could see how confident you felt wearing it!! I loved the grey trousers cardigan and baby tee look too because I love grey menswear so much !! Great job
I think you were going for the word sophisticated! That blue suit is amazing on you! You need to wear more blue, it absolutely brings you to life. It is so fun to watch you discover new ways to wear things!
That suit set is a crazy find and fits you so well! I do not think you looked like a server in the your second outfit haha I think it worked really well!!
In the 90s I had two oversized women’s blazers, the trend then, that I interchanged when I went into what passes near me for “the city.” One was red plaid, and one, black plaid. I wore them with a black turtle neck and black jeans and felt so put together.
omg the butterfly t-shirt! that blue suit! (that blue suit would be SO cute with a graphic tee and docs or cute casual platform shoes) i love how you styled everything!!
I’m so glad you got the blue suit. I even like how the blazer looked with the outfit you were wearing in the thrift store: graphic tee, shorts and cowboy boots, not old money aesthetic but a lewkkk
wow that blue suit is amazing! i think just wearing the pants without the blazer would make it more casual and you could wear the pants more in every day lfie
The second outfit with the black shorts were perfect! you nailed it! You don’t look like a server you look like you have a trust fund! The blue suit is amazing!
I spent last week in corporate wear running workshops, and by day 3 I switched to sneakers for the rest of the week. Yes I was standing so it was comfort mostly - but I actually thought it looked great.
I would love to see how you would incorporate the thrifted pieces into your current style before seeing how you’d style them with the aesthetic! A lot of the clothes you tried on while thrifting looked cute with the outfit you were wearing. Loved the video ❤
Not for this aesthetic but for fall I would totally do the blue suit with some sneakers and a fun beanie! The suit was so made for you tho and I’m obsessed with it!
Old money aesthetic is when you wear outfits that give the impression that you’re rich without the brand names. So I think outfit 2 and 4 are kinda in that category. You did alright! I’m curious as to why you didn’t even search the button up men section you would’ve found some nice Polos there
I did! Just didn't see anything I loved! Also the polos I found I didn't love, definitely would have made more sense though and would have paired nicely with the pieces I already have! I was just being so indecisive 😭
My favorite pair of jeans I've ever owned were vintage light wash Union Bays but I got too big for them (they were always a little bit of a tighter fit) and I'm so sad I had to donate them. Those Union Bays you found bring back memories :')
That blue suit is EVERYTHING on you!!! Such a thrifted gem 💙
The blue suit set was made for you!!! and as a teenager I am also scared of teenagers in the thrift! love everything you got!
There were like big groups of teen boys in a bunch of different corners of the thrift store too 😅
@@alexasunshine83One time I was in the purse section and two teen boys walked by and said, "I hope they don't sell underwear here." I COULD NOT help myself and I said, "They do, it's the rack around the corner." They turned red 😂
Teenaged boys are the scariest. Lol
It would be so cool to see you do a 2000s gilmore girls kind of aesthetic for fall!
My attention was LOCKED on that satin brown skirt. I have been looking for brown midi and maxi skirts for sooooo long and I just found one this weekend but the one you held up was EXACTLY what I’ve been looking for 💔
That skirt would be sooo cute with a chunky sweater and tall boots in the fall omg 😍
I think you nailed it! Absolutely fantastic. The fact that you tailored it for you makes it even better because you stayed true to yourself.
Old money just seems like such a joyless aesthetic. That blue suit set has soo many possibilities though, glad you got it.
Now I’m finally at the end. I think you did a great job for the aesthetic. Especially since you also tried finding pieces that you potentially would wear in your own style. 👍🏻
The blue suit is incredible, and I also loved the red plaid skirt you showed in the store 😊
Omg that blue suit is literally MADE for you! I’d kill for something like that to pop up in a thrift store and fit like a glove, amazing find ❤

The blue suit looks so good on you!
Yes pair it with sneakers or heels both are great
that blue suit is a DREAM✨
YOU SLAY IN THAT SUIT -- OH MY GOODNESS!!!!
The blue suit looks killer on you! This aesthetic is really similar to what was referred to in the 90’s as “Sloan Ranger”. Think Princess Diana as the poster child of Sloan Ranger.
That aesthetic would also be completely out of my comfort zone 😂
But it’s so interesting to try something else
I think you got the “Old Money” style to a “T”! All of the outfits are amazing, but the blue suit is to die for. Let me know when you get tired of it and are ready to sell it. I want it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The grey pants outfit looks so nice 💚
Sad that you didn’t buy the white suit. It looked really amazing on you. I kinda try to do the aesthetic but it looks off on me.
The first look is everything!!!!🩷🩷🩷🩷
The way I gasped when you showed the blue suit in the try-on portion!
That blue suit is perfection! The word you were looking for with the grey trousers is sophisticated!
I really appreciate that you include inspiration from sorts of body types in the intro!
The blue suit & grey trousers MONEY absolutely beautiful pieces 👍
That cat button up you missed the moment to say “you’ve got to be kitten me!” 😂
The white and blue suits definitely looked good on you. So glad you picked one. I've been around real old money and the suit fits it perfectly. It fits you perfectly, too.
The blue set is lovely and a suit with sneakers is amazing. Love the fit.

The blue suit is fire 🔥 not all suits look good but this one is so nice and I love the color.
Loved this video !! Especially the fact that you REALLY tried to stick to the aesthetic, even though your personal style shone through the final outfits (and it made me giggle because it's too cute !). Lots of love from France !
I loved the blue suit with the white heels. I think you did a brilliant job of putting together new finds with your existing wardrobe. 😊👌🏼
Wow that blue suit fits you so perfectly!!

maybe it’s outside the aesthetic, but I feel like white high top Converse might look cute on those blue suit pants for a casual look.
wearing bright summery colors and picking up that black white and red tank top while trying to thrift old money aesthetic is so alexa😂😂😂

the blue suit is amazing on you! Caslon is a Nordstrom brand perfect for the old money vibe.
Every outfit looked so great on you. I think a good adjective for the last outfit is "polished."
Just what I needed for my train ride home!
I love this! Could you do another old money aesthetic video later on?
style the blue suit with pops of red and yellow !!! would be so cool like i was thinking platform red flip flops and a crop top
the 90's romper looks like it would be adorable on
That cream colored suit is 💯 on you
You look great in this aesthetic 😮
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Old Money Aesthetic gives me Meredith Blake and Elizabeth James vibes from parent trap based on the pictures you showcased in the beginning
The blue suit with a white chunky loafer, little purse, crop top, and slicked back hair would look so good on you! What a good find!!!!
omg the butterfly t-shirt! that blue suit! (that blue suit would be SO cute with a graphic tee and docs or cute casual platform shoes)
i love how you styled everything!!
100% obsessed with that suit !! Omggg also with outfit #2 🥹I want to dress like that all the time
Wow the first blue suit outfit!!!
OMG the blue suit is perfect on you!!!! ❤
The blue suit really really suits you the cream one didnt at all, the blue suit will always be in fashion
My favorite fit was the white baby tee, blue trousers, and the sneakers. You looked so good!!
Absolutely love this aesthetic on you!!
You look absolutely amazing in all the looks! It was like watching the movie "Pretty Woman"!!!!
The last outfit is my fav 🙌 love the green
the blue suit looks amazing on you, as it was designed for your body 😍
“Gimme your money business people”🖐🏻✊🏻🖐🏻✊🏻🖐🏻
I’m so glad you got the blue suit. I even like how the blazer looked with the outfit you were wearing in the thrift store: graphic tee, shorts and cowboy boots, not old money aesthetic but a lewkkk

Outfit 2 is so princess Diana, nailed it

Ok, but i think this aesthetic fit you soo good. I loved the suit 😍
Love the first and the last outfits, definitely match the aesthetic! The pant suit was giving power :)
The word you were searching for was polished. That suit looked so good on you.
Yes! Thank you!
YOU DID SO GOOD! and it looks so good on you!
I think you did really well. As long as you are comfortable that's what mattered. Blue suit looks so good definitely wear it for a boss girl lunch
You look so effortlessly stylish! The suit is gorgeous on you, it really brings out your eyes. Loved this video 🩵
Simple sandals with the black shorts would be ideal
I spent last week in corporate wear running workshops, and by day 3 I switched to sneakers for the rest of the week. Yes I was standing so it was comfort mostly - but I actually thought it looked great.
Now that GW has closed their dressing rooms, I wear bicycle shorts and a tank when I shop there, and just try things on in front of a mirror
The suit is amazing on you! The cream colored one would be as well.
alexa ur a succession fan?!?! this is why ur the #1 youtuber
Yeeees! Sometimes John and I will just play the soundtrack on the speakers 😅
I cannot BELIEVE how classy and beautiful that blue suit set is. BRING BACK DRESSING UP!!
I love the blue suit!! I think you can use the pieces separately and make great outfits.
Looking absolutely mindblowing with your hair pulled back 😍😍😍😍😍
Been refreshing since 9am central to see this video!
❤❤❤ so happy it finally got uploaded! it was taking forever 😭
YOUR TOMSHIV SHIRT LMFAOOOOOOO omg i love it
I love the shorts you are wearing in this video!
The suit gave me Princess of Wales vibes! Forget Richie, I think Kate Middleton would be more in line with your own style.
wow you rock it! I've never thought i would like old money aesthetic until i saw old money (alexa's version) And that blue suit is gorgeous, a gem!
the cat button up. drop everything. put in cart. don't discuss. just buy. lol. xoxoxoxoxxo lol. i love cats
I SHOULD HAVE DONE THAT AHH I KNOW BETTER 😭
I loved seeing your thought process in this video❤
I would love to see how you would incorporate the thrifted pieces into your current style before seeing how you’d style them with the aesthetic! A lot of the clothes you tried on while thrifting looked cute with the outfit you were wearing. Loved the video ❤
I am always so impressed when you leave things, wish I was better at that 😅 the blue suit looks stunning 🎉
I’m so happy for you!! The suit is completely perfect for you!!
Not for this aesthetic but for fall I would totally do the blue suit with some sneakers and a fun beanie! The suit was so made for you tho and I’m obsessed with it!
Hi, That Pearawinkel Blue suit looks great on you
The blue suit is gorgeous on you with that slick back bun

Yeah, I get good flannels from the dudes section.
I’m glad it’s not me that has a fear of butterflies!! Love this video 💛
They were right, that suit is AH-MAZING!!! 🎉
My favorite pair of jeans I've ever owned were vintage light wash Union Bays but I got too big for them (they were always a little bit of a tighter fit) and I'm so sad I had to donate them. Those Union Bays you found bring back memories :')
the way I SCREETCHED when I saw that first shot of you in the tomshiv shirt. I LOVE that you own it
Omgg im so happy ur a succession fan 😭😭
Love the blue suit on you!
The beige suit was so good on you
Is there an aesthetic based on Buffy the Vampire Slayer? (Buffy herself, rather than Willow who is whimsigoth)
You nailed this aesthetic! 👍👍
