    which dress was your favorite?! 🥲✨

    I like the authenticity of not finding a thrifted dress in the epic search and not forcing it to happen. That’s just how it goes with thrifting

    I actually like that you posted what was technically a "thrift fail," because that happens so often! It's relatable, and you handled it quite well! Sometimes when I constantly see these amazing thrift hauls I feel like I'm living in the wrong city or shopping the wrong places. Seeing this video was fun and felt really honest. Thank you! Better luck next time!

    Oh, goodness, that black dress with asymmetrical neckline looked absolutely amazing on you...fit you like a glove! I'm afraid the wedding guests wouldn't even notice the bride if you had worn that dress! Columbus looks like a cool town. I've never been to Ohio. It's now on my bucket list. ✨You and Gus look beautiful in that photo. ♥

    • @KathleenIllustrated
      @KathleenIllustrated  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Aw thanks Cindy!! It was a super cool dress, the perfect LBD! And Columbus IS pretty cool & always getting cool-er haha. I appreciate your kind words & that you took the time to watch my vid. Have a lovely week!!!

      @@KathleenIllustrated Love your zen attitude, I get crippling buyer's remorse for both NOT buying things and buying things and I have so many clothes I have a hard time letting go of because I keep telling myself I just need to find the right way to style them...maybe you could make a vid on your thrifting philosophy/mindset? Or like the life cycle of your clothes and how you know it's time to let go?

    I'm not sure why, but finding a dress to wear to a wedding always feels high stakes to me. I'm glad you had something you felt comfortable in. Those clip on earrings were adorable

    The colorful wrap dress you're wearing when you were shopping on thredUP is so cute, you look very pretty 🙂

      Thank you very much! It’s the perfect summer boppin-around-the-house dress :)

  • @NicolePalmervlogs
    @NicolePalmervlogs 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    My pick was the pink and red dress for the funk aspect of it. I’m so sorry about the non- public dress!! Dang!

    • @KathleenIllustrated
      @KathleenIllustrated  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I should have gone for that one for this event!… but I may or may not have ordered it for another wedding next month. Fingers crossed it fits 👀 thanks for watching, friend!

    It's so hard to work out what to wear to a wedding!! I'm not really one for formal dresses either which I feel makes it harder. For all the time one spends deciding, I don't remember what anyone else wore at the last wedding I was at haha
    I loved seeing all the vintage dresses you tried!

    • @KathleenIllustrated
      @KathleenIllustrated  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Right?! and at the end of the day.. isn’t it all about the people getting married anyways? Haha oh well. Thanks for watching! Really appreciate it, Helen :)

    You know, I get why kids watch Dora the Explorer, when the content you watch asks you for help (“hold this dress pls”) or for our opinions, it feels so special and inclusive haha

    @tara1638 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    When there’s a time crunch and you need to find something it’s always the worst. I can never find exactly what I’m hoping for. I’m sure you looked stunning in whatever you wore!

    If you get invited to weddings sometimes, it might be worth shopping for fancy dresses to have a couple on standby. Those of us who thrift and shop vintage are not going to find the perfect thing right before we need it. It takes time, and lots of trips to the store.

    • @KathleenIllustrated

      Looking back, I like it too! Love the idea of pairing the statement earrings with it!

    The last minute hunt shopping has almost never worked for me. I assemble a list of social outings at all dress code levels of my circle: full black demure for funerals, black tie dark and black tie statement, christenings, Bar (Bat/ Benai ) Mitzvahs, Easter, Holy week, wine tastings, outdoor sports. From bathing suits to white tie, if I’m likely to be invited or want to attend a dress code: it’s on the year round hunt list. When I need to go somewhere, I grab the outfit for X dress code event in X season. I usually have a few choices. Of all the things I’m epic at last minute, finding a photogenic thrifted outfit in 24 hrs is not one of them!

    @racheldaniels7858 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    The green would have been fun if it worked for you. I think the gold sequence with black shapes before the "nah nah" dress could have suited the occasion but maybe it would have been too much/too hot... I also liked the silver micro pleat with the yoke belt. Glad you had a good time!

    Wow i just checked out Thred up for the first time and the sizing seems... off, in a major way. How does a large size dress have a 29" bust? Did you shop by using their measurements or did you just buy your regular size

    • @KathleenIllustrated
      @KathleenIllustrated  12 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I attempted to use the measurements and have been disappointed every time 😹

    • @KarenOBrien-f9r
      @KarenOBrien-f9r 12 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I even tried looking for things two sizes larger like would when shopping China sites online and a 35" bust for 2x just doesn't seem right. That's not even my strap size 😂
