This is why I have such a love hate relationship with Pinterest. Everything looks cute on a pretty girl with a good angle- it makes it so hard to know if the item is actually cute or you just want to BE the girl
Huge fan of the “would you wear this outside of where it’s trending” guideline! When I started splitting my time between a large city and a rural farm, it changed my shopping mindset completely. While I still have some city clothes and some farm clothes (from a functional perspective), I now ask myself, “would I feel comfortable stopping at a gas station on the way to the farm in this?”
Specific branded items as trends always makes me think of the thrasher tee and vans trend of 2016. The image of that shirt + black and white vans + fishnets under ripped light wash jeans triggers my fight or flight response.
omg i cant believe those wedged sneakers have made a comeback, i remember having them as a teenager in 2012-13 (was shocked later on what i had been thinking back then) and seeing them a couple of years ago in those videos/tiktoks/reels bashing on old ugly trends😭 just before getting something trendy imagine if you’ll (not others, you) make fun of the very same trend in the future
I live outside of a very, very small town of like 600 people on a farm in southeast Oklahoma and I wear all of my weird offputting vintage clothes to the dentist or the grocery store or church. And you may ask? Don’t you get stared at? Yes yes, I do. Does your family make fun of you? Yes, yes they do. With my autism and social anxiety somehow I’ve gotten more comfortable and dressing the way that I want to in public. Than I was when I was stuck and not knowing how to dress for myself. All that being said, she makes incredible points. Pay attention.
i think ppl that wear vintage clothing are super cool especially as i'm a big history lover 😭. my favourite fashion period for my personal taste is the mid 90's to early 2000's - in my eyes nothing has topped that era since then !
No way. I live in Northeast OK in a small town as well. I feel like an alien in the best way. Darn right, we have to best dress at the one gas station.

I used to Love platform sneakers but then hated them but i kind of realised it wasnt the platform but more so the BRIGHT colours. I remember one shoe that had coral, bright blue, neon yellow and green. They really didnt look good. My uncle bought me a platgorm sneaker but with chapagne and gold and honestly they're lovely. Sometimes trends have to just be bent to our liking to be sustainable in our closets.
Very eye opening for me as a older woman that loves mixing masculine and feminine clothes together and finding myself not dressing like I want to because I basically live in a small town and women typically don’t dress like I like to, but if I visit near bye San Francisco I would dress fully the way I want to and not worry about it. Sneakers are a great topic and until you’re video I didn’t think brand meant much to me but I only buy Nike , New balance converse and Vans but I do buy these brands used.
Thank you for sharing your insight! I am glad that there is somewhere you can go where you find you can express yourself! I hope you have a lovely day xxxxx
this was so funny as someone who's on pinterest a lot for clothing inspo bc i truly had no idea what you were talking about 😭😭 trend after trend i was flabbergasted which is so strange i feel like i'm so chronically online i loved the video tho!! i actually really like the whole deinfluencing thing, i think you're really good about it since you're really reasonable and make fair comparisons that don't just dismiss whatever you're talking about completely i could listen to u talk forever it's just so pleasant haha + ur absolutely gorgeous !
I really enjoyed this and I think in general on your channel you do a great job of actually delving into a deeper analysis of why things work and even what it means for something to 'work' in the first place. A lot of videos don't go much deeper than 'i like it' (why?why not?) or 'this doesn't look good' (what does looking good mean?). Really like your stuff, super glad I got recommended it by the algorithm!
I remember having such mixed feelings about wedge sneakers in like 2009/2010 but then in 2014 ish I had a really nice pair. They were Nikes, grey white and blue. I wore them with black leggings, a crop top and a jean jacket
buying/wearing things while theyre trendy stresses me out, to myself id look like im trying too much, but then i recognize the blessing in this where i just saved money/space in my wardrobe. if the trend dies down and i still need it in my collection i would buy it
rly good point on the isabel marant sneakers, but i do have to say sometimes designer items are just nicer and have better design, less logos and ugly colours (sometimes!). For example I have always hated sambas and a lot of other "slim sole" sneakers, but I have had maison margiela "replica" sneakers for years and liked them pre samba and still wear them now
You’ve really just solidified my goals of retaining a nice, comfortable wardrobe where I feel confident and sure in everything I own and would have no issue wearing any of the items on any given day, which for me is just a bunch of giant sweaters and straight leg tailored jeans I suppose. I feel happy in that and could wear it forever. Also thanks for convincing me to spare my bank account lol
as for the 'do you like the brand' point, that hasnt been my experience bc i LOVE my asics sneakers, but similarly to salomon they just have *so many* designs for all different types of sports/activites and while i do love my own pair, some of the designs they put out are just UGLY AS SIN to me lol. but i do agree this point works for smaller brands that are currently trendy and/or have one item thats going viral (example - lirika matoshi w the strawberry dress)
Tbh with footwear I think u r right, it’s a bit different bc if you are buying sports footwear (like ASICS or salomons etc) some of their items will be more directed at everyday wear and others will be more directed to high performance in sports , the ones for us normal folk lol are probably made with more aesthetics in mind than the ones made for athletes ,, idk lol
those wedged trainers, yikes I feel old (I’m 16). I remember my younger cousin wearing them and running and breaking her ankle, from that moment on they were banned in my family. To this day I’m happy I still hate them, if you see me in them wack some sense into me xx
This is a very helpful video!! But as some one who has always had a strong sense of my personal style but only started consuming fashion content online in the past 2 years, (i know that sounds odd but i swear i just wasnt in the little corner of the internet) The best thing you can do if you are struggling to not be influenced/dont know your own style, is to STOP looking in this corner of the internet. Just totally stop. Its too hard to not be influenced while looking at the influencers.
i finally got a pair of marants a few months ago after wanting them for like 3 years and i love them and i literally wear them all day on my huge college campus where i walk like at least 10k steps a day🙏
sometimes i want something because it's a trend but then it becomes too trendy and if i wear it it's very obvious that i'm just following the trend and i don't want it anymore lol
Omg i haven't even recovered yet from the Wedge sneakers being a raging trend in the early 2010s, they were cheap, they were everywhere,...ugh. I pass 😂 fashion cycles tooo fast!
Ah pls don’t get them right now imo , think how quickly bayonetta glasses came in and out, then jimmy fairly glasses came in and out , now it’s the miu miu glasses. Wait until they aren’t as trendy and see if you still like them bc they r v v expensive for a pair of glasses. SAYING THAT I think they are super super cute and if you need prescription lenses and don’t wear contacts you will be wearing them evey day , if you already wear glasses, have the funds lol and know they are your kind of style I think they are cute, but if you are trying glasses bc it’s cute to wear glasses atm - just remember when all the rich American housewives got laser eye surgery bc glasses were ugly. Idk maybe im not the right person to ask bc I wear glasses every day and mine are some what similar to the miu miu ones , but as you are asking me … I would wait if you don’t normally wear glasses, but def def keep in mind bc they r my favs out of the bayonetta / jimmy fairly / miu miu xxxxxxxx
@@ashleighcallaghan ahhh ty ty xxx u r the best, thinking bout it the bayonetta glasses are starting to look cringe to me idk idk, only like the miu miu ones... I also do quiet enjoy the john lennon typa glasses u mentioned previously, maybe I´ll look out for some next time I´m out thrifting... prob the better (&cheaper) alternative to spending a fortune on a pair of normal lense glasses xdd
Start off with what your fav fav items are and build around those !! My fav has ALWAYS been dungarees and I just make sure everything gives off the same vibrations :))))
oh, i see! it makes everything easier, actually! i used to try to build it from an aesthetic of some sorts, but always ended up kinda stuck (? - ykwim) 'cause well, in the end we're all humans with so many different interests, right? only one aesthetic could never encompass us whole!
I mean, it's so obvious that anything that you buy because of the brand is a waste. The same goes for trends. To someone with a consistent style, the rule is simple: Can you see yourself wearing that in 5 years? If not, let it go and use that money to travel instead.
I get your first point , love, but the Isabel marant sneakers was not a good example because of the slight design differences, like for eg: red button on some white shirts might look ugly while on others they might look fantastic, so lets be aware of that.....otherwise fabtastic video
very off topic but i was wondering if you listened to classical music because you have very beautiful peices playing in the background (coming from a classical musician)

My Pinterest is an article of clothing with a white background so I suppose that solves it 😄

I’d swap wearing city clothes for living on a farm ANY DAYYYYY 💘💘💘💘
