This man gets it. The burrito bowl is the optimal solution to the chipotle conundrum. I left my fork in the bowl I was eating last night. Anyone who disagrees is a slave to big tortilla.
The Pokémon analogy works great because my level 100 Blaziken that cleared every gym on its own as a kid is equivalent to my one cool jacket that ties every fit together
As someone who doesn't always have enough money to buy new fits, this video made me feel more confident with the fact that all my pieces go along with each other.
So my journey to this took a few pit stops: - overconsumption - felt shit in all my clothes - obsessive about design systems - started researching - Kibbe theory - colour season theory - donated anything that didn’t fit properly, suit my body type, or that I felt shit in - styled all my stuff - bought the shit that was missing - use Depop as a “shopping list” Nothing is perfect but if I go thrifting now I can immediately spot stuff I want AND that I will actually wear. Also knowing the “rules” you set for yourself makes it easier to break them. I know what suits me, I also know when to push the boundaries a little. Maybe it’s the autism but Im just happy with the system I have now. I don’t waste money on stuff I know I won’t wear, and I can pick and choose which trends to participate in based on whether they’re right for me. And I’m no minimalist by any means! But this system made me confident.
Getting more involved in the "real" fashion community over the last decade has been really fascinating bc so many people overcomplicate what it takes to put together successful looks consistently. The vast majority of my wardrobe has always been thrifted, and I've always just followed my intuition and been able to put together affordable, cohesive fits that are usually well received by ~fashionistas~ and normies alike. The secret to the magic has simply been... *drum roll*... to gather pieces I like that fit me well! Your wardrobe will be a lot less frustrating if you just pick clothes that 1) appeal to your eye, 2) make you feel confident, and 3) make sure you have a bunch of neutral items that can always be mixed and matched with bolder pieces so you don't look crazy. Your taste is unique and like Christian said, something is only cool if YOU like it. Simplifying the fit-building process and styling a collection of items you actually love will lead to you trusting your own personal style choices more with minimal effort. Over time, that is how you become a true ~fashionista~. Keep shit optimized and you will be set up for style success 😎
my mom always says to not just buy one random piece of clothing without an outfit in mind, and i should fill the gap with pieces i need to finish the outfit or i won’t ever wear it
I bought a pair of bootcut jeans recently for the first time in a decade and I'e been surprised at how comy it feels and how cool it looks. It feels like it makes every outfit look better for some reason. It's definitely part of my OYSAC
this was me a couple months ago, never owned a pair and i just randomly decided to get a pair at the thrift and now they’re like my fav jeans, love the way they look falling over shoes
i think that food fashion may not be my north star, but god does it make me happy. ive found cake and ice cream high heels, gummy bear necklaces, piping bag earrings, lays earrings, and more. thank you for the inspiration, didnt even know that it was a real thing!
i think most importantly is to take time while selecting pieces. finding something that matches your interests outside of fashion (akira) and mixing it with something traditional (camo bomber) is the goal here. so: just akira = boring , just camo bomber = boring. but not every piece has that combination, so you actually have to source a long time to find a mix that stays interesting for a long time
I love your personality. I love that you talk about fashion like a philosophy. You make me laugh and you don't encourage over consuming. You are super cool
This is the mindset ive been having for several months now and its great. I can look good like how i wanted without sacrificing excessive time and effort and my mind into spiral of choosing fits
That comfort to art is pain bit hits home, I ended up recently splitting my wardrobe in two (that i keep in 2 diff places) which I call "gym mode" and "street mode". I can mix and match between them but its good to have shit accessible based on mood but having some consistency.
thank you for putting this strategy into words, every time someone asks i just say pinterest, analysis, basic capsule, and statement pieces but that gets misinterpreted all the time because i don’t want to go into the whole mental math of logical minimalism but not literal minimalism. but style optimization? bro. BRO.
Christian, thank you! You make some of the most creative, entertaining, and humorous content on youtube. Always brings up my mood when the RNG isnt on my side
you just need to reframe how you look at it, restriction is the mother of creativity. work within the confines of the rules but make each piece just a little different than usual, details and elements that are optimal for your taste but work within the confines. you got this my man
Damn, "do I have the balls for this right now?" is an excellent question that I need to be asking myself more often in the fashion department. The number of skirts I own is not proportional to how often I'm comfortable cross-dressing lol
I got 3 pairs of shoes, hiking boots, my dads old running shoes for the gym, and my biscotti golf le fleur giannos, Ive rotated these 3 for the past 3 years every day and its so easy and consistently fire. I been oying my sac since before christian put yall on.
On the subject of burrito bowl, I brought my own tupperware once and aside from environmental reasons, they also didn't charge me for it. I don't know if that's optimal but it did made my day.
I needed this video tbh, I realized I have 3 anime bombers I get and literally non-stop wear them all the time. They have this really beautiful cross stitch monkey and the other is a wolf, theirs some other stuff on it as well. Really solid, I wear nothing but black pants and convers (White & Black) I typically wear silver chains and rings stuff like that. It's simple, effective and interchangeable and when I toss in some color I get good color blocking.
I love you, epic memes! Been hard accepting that I feel like a big waste buying sub-optimal clothing now, and just loving the things that I have for a while! My optimal wardrobe has made its way to completion even without my planning and it feels all wrong and right at the same time because of it!
Fashion or personal style is more interesting the more you think about it. My thoughts on it have completely changed so often.. A huge problem with fashion starters is like you mention.. the idea of a one size fits all fashion is silly. That’s like saying there’s a one food fits all. Only works for individual items (like pizza or jeans) and not as a whole. Better to think from first principles of your body shape and build from that. That informs a lot of which clothes or fit style you can easily rock. A NY street style works better for certain body builds than others (e.g. skinny person in Jordan’s doesn’t work as well as thicker person. Most wide fit paradoxically designed for skinny people nowadays).
you know i dont think i actually learn anything from any of your videos, i just come away with like a general vibe on a bunch of different topics and im like mmmm yes i should try this. maybe i suck at paying attention
I'm not sure if this counts, but currently, my OYSAC (accessory) piece is my newly-bought Casio A168W. I had worn it in casual outings and also a formal event (that being my friend's wedding). It makes my formal outfit dressier and my casual outfit "more intentional"
Christian give us the specific categories I think it would help a lot of people. For example you show some categories like comfort, diversity, sauce etc. Tell us all of em
awesome video christian, would consider doing a video on saving your clothes from stains, ive lost too many brave soldiers in the battlefield of eating pasta on a couch
This is why I’m just gonna wear all black . One I’m from the Bronx so it’s a safety caution and 2 it’s just easy to not think about and you calways find something really nice or not and people won’t notice as much
I honestly got lost in the sauce😭, I advise everyone to revisit their closet occasionally. See what you like and don’t like, how could each piece fit together, could you elevate that piece you don’t like somehow? After you’ve taken a good hard look THEN you could move on from there 💀.
What the fuck is this masterpiece of a video. This man risked bruning his house for a burrito metaphor? How can you put this unnecessarily much work into such a simple ass idea for a video. I f'ing love it. Never seen you before, loving it though!
Pretend your an rpg character and you gotta optimize your inventory. You don’t want basic ass gear. You want those good good magic items that your attached too. You want those plus one boots you nicked off a traveling merchant at level two that you’re unreasonably attached to

This man gets it. The burrito bowl is the optimal solution to the chipotle conundrum. I left my fork in the bowl I was eating last night. Anyone who disagrees is a slave to big tortilla.
No the most optimal is a bowl with a tortilla in the bottom 🤯🤯
Imagine not being able to finish the chipotle burrito, couldn't be me
@@trevorbaumgardner8929false, it’s side tortilla
personally I think having an air fryer is optimized reheating
chipotle employee here, daetsmlolliw is right - burrito bowl with a side tort is optimized (please don't be an asshole and overfill it though)
Christian is the goat with the memes and the information… it’s like 90% memes and I love it
Yeah shame his style is ass like a emo kid 😂
Best clothes youtuber
@@Timosha__ for real, loved his content for years
90% memes 10% info and like another 40% sponsor
He's truly optimized the format ‼️
The Pokémon analogy works great because my level 100 Blaziken that cleared every gym on its own as a kid is equivalent to my one cool jacket that ties every fit together
And they’re both fire
When the comment is good but the reply is better.
As someone who doesn't always have enough money to buy new fits, this video made me feel more confident with the fact that all my pieces go along with each other.
Hitting up the thrift shop every now and then would definitely be of benefit, heck, most of my pieces are thrifted!
I'm more of a Best Alternative with Least Spenditure Affordable Clothing (or BALSAC for short) type of guy myself
So my journey to this took a few pit stops:
- overconsumption
- felt shit in all my clothes
- obsessive about design systems
- started researching
- Kibbe theory
- colour season theory
- donated anything that didn’t fit properly, suit my body type, or that I felt shit in
- styled all my stuff
- bought the shit that was missing
- use Depop as a “shopping list”
Nothing is perfect but if I go thrifting now I can immediately spot stuff I want AND that I will actually wear.
Also knowing the “rules” you set for yourself makes it easier to break them.
I know what suits me, I also know when to push the boundaries a little.

yo learning Kibbe theory was so stressful -.- bless Christian for thisss
not reading allat
going through the same exact journey in that order actually lol (maybe it IS our autism....)
kibbe & the myth of dressing for your body type...

I like to call this tendency post-minimalism: you apply minimalist principles to a non aesthetically minimal wardrobe.
excellent conclusion 👏
This is it. We're witnessing PRIME FRUGAL.👑
I'm finally hip.
just scored optimal fits from the thrift store! love your fashion terminology/takes, it just makes sense.
my mom always says to not just buy one random piece of clothing without an outfit in mind, and i should fill the gap with pieces i need to finish the outfit or i won’t ever wear it

Explaining fashion in Pokémon terms makes everything much more simple 👌
Holy shit it's jokerpilled from Blkpill vids
as someone going into their "fashion is pain" character arc with 0 funds in the off shore account this came at the perfect time legend.
Love this channel bc it's basically fashion philosophy. Normies and style icons can all get something from these vids
This is low key just great life advice thinly veiled under the guise of fashion 🤣
i think that food fashion may not be my north star, but god does it make me happy. ive found cake and ice cream high heels, gummy bear necklaces, piping bag earrings, lays earrings, and more. thank you for the inspiration, didnt even know that it was a real thing!

This whole video is not just optimal its a burrito bowl 🍲
I love your personality. I love that you talk about fashion like a philosophy. You make me laugh and you don't encourage over consuming. You are super cool
Bro I swear fashion is a sport now 🙃
Always has been
My brain muscles hurt from scrolling through Pinterest too much
This is the mindset ive been having for several months now and its great. I can look good like how i wanted without sacrificing excessive time and effort and my mind into spiral of choosing fits
this guys analogies are amazing with a great sense of humor, I swear this should be a lecture. OYSAC is the way!

wow, i've never considered the optimality of a burrito bowl... I just always finish my burrito whether I'm full or not
Christian, thank you! You make some of the most creative, entertaining, and humorous content on youtube. Always brings up my mood when the RNG isnt on my side
My game mainly just consists of fashion that i can rock in and out of work,
kinda hard when the workplace actually has strict dresscode tho
you just need to reframe how you look at it, restriction is the mother of creativity. work within the confines of the rules but make each piece just a little different than usual, details and elements that are optimal for your taste but work within the confines.
you got this my man

been watching your content since 2018 and i love how i/ my style grew up along your channels growth chris, love from Mauritius island ❤
You, sir, have outdone yourself. Bravo.
On the subject of burrito bowl, I brought my own tupperware once and aside from environmental reasons, they also didn't charge me for it. I don't know if that's optimal but it did made my day.
NOTHING BUT FACTS‼️
how did you watch the vid alr
tftf
Bro u aint even ten minutes in yet
I needed this video tbh, I realized I have 3 anime bombers I get and literally non-stop wear them all the time.

Really solid, I wear nothing but black pants and convers (White & Black) I typically wear silver chains and rings stuff like that.

Oh wow what a beautiful mood board! You could literally make outfits inspired by each of those items! 🤯
I come for the fashion but always leave with more philosophical knowledge and jokes. Honestly not easy to do what you do man and we grateful
this was a very well thought out video im ngl good for you man
I love you, epic memes! Been hard accepting that I feel like a big waste buying sub-optimal clothing now, and just loving the things that I have for a while! My optimal wardrobe has made its way to completion even without my planning and it feels all wrong and right at the same time because of it!

Thanks. Just thanks. I definitely started putting a bit more effort into how I wear my clothes and it’s made a word of a difference
this was a full circle hero moment. we made it to the good ending.
Been doin this for years. Best decision ever.
Editing on point as usual
He was spitting with that burrito analogy
This guy is a genius
Love this take, it’s always me vs me I don’t care what anyone is doing I am playing a single player game
you know i dont think i actually learn anything from any of your videos, i just come away with like a general vibe on a bunch of different topics and im like mmmm yes i should try this. maybe i suck at paying attention
your content is extremely funny yet so educative 😂 thank you man
FASHION IS ACTUALLY REALLY SOFT ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE FEELING UP MY OYSAC
This comment goes hard!!!
I am in my "art is pain" era
I'm not sure if this counts, but currently, my OYSAC (accessory) piece is my newly-bought Casio A168W. I had worn it in casual outings and also a formal event (that being my friend's wedding). It makes my formal outfit dressier and my casual outfit "more intentional"
a168 is sooooo good
@@selmanfejzic5474 it sure is 👌
what ive been doing since the "create a uniform" video. similar principle. good shit.
Came for the fashion advance stayed for the burrito vs bowl debate
Fuck fashion, you are an editing god
Fashion is a resemblance of how we feel
Christian give us the specific categories I think it would help a lot of people. For example you show some categories like comfort, diversity, sauce etc. Tell us all of em
the taco comparison worked great bc im actually very high rn and that example totally got me following your words
The analogies are so perfect
awesome video christian, would consider doing a video on saving your clothes from stains, ive lost too many brave soldiers in the battlefield of eating pasta on a couch
we've only got to think about BOYSACK????
oh wait nevermind
Bro is just saying words for 14 minutes, I did not take anything away from this lmao
This is why I’m just gonna wear all black . One I’m from the Bronx so it’s a safety caution and 2 it’s just easy to not think about and you calways find something really nice or not and people won’t notice as much
A true statement 🙌🏾
My favourite channel at the moment. I love you.
this video was so optimal
i used a thunderstone on my white dungarees and its now my absolute banger favourite piece of sunflower yellow clothing.
i now have a phrase to explain how all my outfits look planned knowing i just threw on the same shit i always wear
Deep enough and effortlessly said.
the layers of jokes and meta in these videos
At this point I feel like the less I understand a video the better it is
I honestly got lost in the sauce😭, I advise everyone to revisit their closet occasionally. See what you like and don’t like, how could each piece fit together, could you elevate that piece you don’t like somehow? After you’ve taken a good hard look THEN you could move on from there 💀.
