Mia you shouldnt always believe the word ‘bestseller’ At the company that I work for, the bestsellers are the items that there is a lot of stock of that they want to get rid of. When I found out I was shook, mabye other companies do that as well 🙃
This is half of the truth. Yes, best selling items will typically have a larger stock than the others items; that's because they sell way quicker and are more popular AKA best-selling. In order to keep up with the demand, they have to make more stock. And in Skim's case, these items are definitely their most popular ones. Half of them have gone viral
I'm Muslim and I wear hijab so the full body shape wear sounds amazing! Like I can just throw on any dress and not worry about anything popping out 😂 I think I'm gonna order it

One thing to keep in mind, when you have liposuction, you are supposed to wear a compression garment for multiple weeks to help with swelling and healing. So I just realized that when they were all visibly wearing the waist trainers and bragging about how effective they were, there is a good chance they were recovering from lipo in the waist and back area.
I second this, I actually got lipo after seeing amazing results on my husband, and wearing the compression garment they gave me was so dang hard, but it did a lot for me in the end
this has some truth, but it doesn’t mean people advertise waist trainers to hide “secret lipo” lmfao. the obsession with slimming tea and waist trainers are connected to the obsession with hourglass shapes. doesn’t have to equate to cosmetic surgery. waist training has been a thing before bbls / lip was popularized tho. an influencer can hide a lipo surgery without the use of a waist trainer. they hide much scarier things all the time. 😭

Husband and I just bought our first house and we are remodeling the whole thing ourselves (with family help). I think of you literally constantly throughout this process😂 all your hard work has inspired me so thank you Mia!♥️
I’m currently waiting to hear back on an offer for my first house!! It’s going to need a little diy and Mia definitely always inspires me to have fun with my ideas. I can’t wait! Fingers crossed my offer is accepted 🫣
I must say, the sizing on that t-shirt makes me think that Skims might not be as body-inclusive as they seem to be (looking at their models etc). The black dress is very pretty, would look so good with pearls. Great video, Mia!
You’re reaction when pulling the shapewear body suit out of the packaging was the same one I had with Lizzos shapewear. So be prepared! Lol. Can’t wait for that video! Thanks for the review!
So you mentioned ruining a bunch of underwear this period, and I wanted to recommend you try period underwear!! It's not as gross as I thought it would be, and as a backup for heavy days and on its own for light days, it's a game changer. I feel much more positive about my more eco-friendly period routine and have lost zero underwear since making the switch. I love the Knix brand! You should try it and maybe even do a video! Side note: They say you can wear it on its own even on heavy days, but personally I do not find that comfortable.
and i literally just habe the primark ones, they're good, also have extra heavy ones for the heavy flow days! they're cheaper in the long run, and great for the environment!! also you don't have to stick anything up there
I laughed alot with this vid especially with the extra extra small body shapeware 😂😂😂 and the lil itibittieeee thong Thankyou so much you are such an awesome girl.
The catsuit under the dress looked very stylish and purposeful, especially when you got the pearl necklace on😍 Maybe the catsuit just needs to be worn so it's visible. Perhaps try it with a long tight skirt and bralette/corset top under or over it... mesh shirts are in now, right..?
For customs: some brands have "brokerage" built into the shipping price which is essentially paying it upfront. Often the sites will note if that's being charged and note that there won't be additional charges upon delivery. If the seller hasn't done that in advance then you will likely have to pay it upon delivery.
Came here for this. A US brand I buy from indicates it as shipping "Duties Paid" so they handle all the customs taxes and things so you as a costumer don't have to pay. And if there's a mishap they refund you the customs charges
@@abc-eb4zh Yes, Australia doesn’t charge customs on online shopping as long as it’s under a certain amount (not sure how much) but they did think about bringing it in for a while.
$700 for those items and then $200 of shipping?? In Kim’s pocket??? I could NEVER! Thank you Mia for being brave for us lol Also that micro thing could NEVER fit me and my goods, I’d be spilling out bc there is literally NO gusset 😂
Ikr and imagine someone paying that £700 towards a small business run by one person who has a family to provide for and that business is their only income, it would literally make their entire year, pay their rent etc. Except people stick their nose up at paying out for small businesses, it’s constantly "omg that so overpriced" etc but people forget that one person made it, one person took time and energy creating something. I would much rather support that than a multimillionaire.
Let me explain the SKIMS micro thong and why I am happy it exists. I'm 5'2 about 185lbs (I just had a baby as well). The issue with "regular" thongs for me is the excess of material in the front. My vagina doesn't need all that material so "regular" thongs tend to look not as well fitting as these. I have a bit of a tummy and a lot of times other thongs will almost need to be hiked up on my waist more and obviously that looks funny, pull them down so they sit on my pubic area and it gets droopy because it's to much fabric....this is why I love these thongs.. Just because I am plus size doesn't mean everything on me is plus size
@@annapruitt5546 good question and yep a lot of times there is. No difference from the back typically (but even with the back g string it'll still be way way to much "string") but a larger size g string still has to much fabric in the front as opposed to the micro thong. I'm telling you if you suffer from this issue I know the price is high but to me it's worth it. I started out with just one and when they go on sale I stock up because they work for my body type. Its all about what makes you feel "put together" confident and comfortable. I always struggled with regular thongs and g string fabric bunching up and that doesn't make me feel confident if I'm wearing tighter clothing.
I personally don't understand how a thong, let alone a micro thong, can be comfortable on anyone! I'm 5'8" and 140lbs, my stomach is flat and I don't think I'm big down there but I've tried thongs and the material shifts and goes to one side or the other making them uncomfortable. I also can't stand the back piece of elastic/material going up the crack of my butt. I constantly feel like my butt is eating my underwear and i have to pull it out, especially with jeans. I guess I'm stuck with my boring bikini bottoms because they just never feel comfy on me. Idk know how anyone can say they're comfortable unless I bought the wrong kind. 😕 Were they comfortable from the beginning for you or is it just something you need to get use to?
Like others... that black skims and black dress is EVERYTHING!! Like wear it to a gala or fancy dinner like before your wedding... you look amazing in it.
As a brazilian, we actually wear the micro thong... Some people can use it everyday, at first it is a bit strange but you'll get use to it with time. But ours undewears are mostly shorter than the rest of the world hahaha it was funny (and understandble) to see your reaction
Is that what regular underwear in Brazil looks like??? Like that micro thong? How do you wear that in normal life? Like how do you wear a pad? Don’t you get discharge and blood everywhere?
@@rachelcookie321 no! we have some type that are largest but they’re still smallest than the US/european style. i believe that most women use this one most of the time, but i know a lot who prefer the micro thong (except during the period, it really is impossible to use a pad kkkk)
as an argentinian these almost 40 celcius weathers got me wanting one too,, i wouldnt like even an extra unnecessary cm of clothing, catch me in a bikini whole summer
I can say that skims is probably no different than any other fast fashion brand in the matter of fairly treating the workers. Turkey became 2nd China for cheap labor. People work for minimum 45 hours per week and get the minimum wage which is equivalent to 245 usd
@@merlin2946 Yes of course currency is different that’s why I wrote the amount in usd. To be able to compare, I can say cheapest rent you can find is around 200 usd nowadays +another comparison, a doctor’s salary is around 450-500 usd
There are good, ethical and fair manufacturers everywhere. However, the fact that Skims doesn’t offer any information about their manufacturers except for “we pay fair wages and ensure a safe environment” leads me to believe they actually aren’t ethical. Ethical brands usually include the certifications they’ve acquired and actual information about the manufacturers ensuring that employees don’t work over 40 hours a week, have health insurance, get paid vacation, have maternal leave and sick days, are paid more than minimum wage, etc. Many work with small family-owned manufacturers and even show pictures of the facilities. It’s a big red flag when brands like Skims aren’t transparent and provide little to no information about their manufacturers. In a case like this it’s safe to assume they’re not actually ethical.
Thank you mia for shouting out the sizing issue. If that shirt is an extra large, then I must be built like a t rex, no hope of getting in any of that.
I think people need to understand that the body doesn’t come with the clothing and I think that’s why everyone buys it because you get in your head that you might look like that.
Thongs in general are so expensive for the amount of fabric, i am a miner and i never bought any but i searched it up one day out of pure curiosity and found a pair for 29 dollors and it was just a thin piece of white sheer acrylic fabric… girl?!
i wish mama maples was also in this video like the last time! i want to hear her laugh over the tiny pieces again😂 *coughs* but let's be honest, i want mama maples to join mia in all the videos she can be in. i love their dynamic so much😆
You buying the micro thong had me in a panic attack because I was like girl HOW are you going to wear that and not blur it out? But I'm happy with the result. That tan suit you have on under it always makes me laugh.
I love how Mia checks her door is locked so no one sees her wearing the micro thong but also films her wearing it and shared it with hundreds and thousands of people 😂 Ps, love your videos Mia
We love and appreciate all you’re doing, Mia! Never worry about taking more time to do things you need to. The quality of your videos alone makes any number of videos per week worth it!💗 best of luck on wedding planning girl
I'm fascinated by customs in Canada. It's required in Australia for the seller to collect it at the time of sale and it's always 10% so you know upfront what you're paying.
I wish! I’m Canadian and it depends on what the products are made of and what category they are from. The amount is based on the Canadian equivalent. At least that’s how it was kind of explained by a border guard who was charging me duty!
Me too! I feel the same way about shopping in a store in Australia VS shopping in a store in the US, I’m not great at calculating things quick, so didn’t know how much I was up for after tax 🤣 I’m so happy tax is included in the price here
I remember the shape wear video and your mom looked so incredible. It made me buy some, but I have to say, I don't look anywhere near as good as Mama Maples. It did help me feel better about myself when I have to dress up which thankfully isn't often
If you are that someone who's wearing micro tongs daily: please don't! lol Every single obgyn I've talked to says they are awful for one's intimate health, because as you move and bend throughout the day the string moves bacteria between the back and the front and that's good for no one. I really hope people are buying those for occasional use, they are very much not meant to be worn every day 😬
I've never understood why it's supposed to be a problem that the outline of your underwear is visible under (skin) tight clothing. We all wear underwear (most people anyway), so who cares? Just wear underwear that's comfortable and protects the most sensitive parts of your body. You won't catch me in a thong!
@@Angelofnine I have two tongs for when I occasionally feel like wearing those, but yeah. If the outline of an underwear is REALLY distracting me from the rest of my outfit, I go for those "invisible" seamless pieces and they usually do the trick even if you can still notice them if you stare too much. But I agree, we give way too much importance to looking like we aren't wearing underwear lol
This! I don't wear thongs any more b/c I got a nasty UTI from wearing one on a really hot day. I'm convinced it was caused by me sweating down below and not changing in to a dry pair of undies after. Sorry if that's TMI, but it does happen. I was miserable for 2 weeks. I'd much rather have VPL than a UTI.
I adore the lengths you go to show us the brands with the try on video. Just have to say your super sweet." I'm gonna lock the door because I don't think I can explain this". Mia everybody will see it you posted it to your channel. And we love you for it.😊
I felt seen when Mia was checking what material the underwear is made out of😁. Also underwear material 100% does matter, & is important for a number of reasons, one being breathability.
That would be an awesome video. I started using the diva cup about 10 years ago and it is been a total life changer. Even on super heavy flow days, I could wear no underwear and be fine. I love menstrual cups but they do have a little bit of a learning curve. However, they are much better for the environment and feel much better than big bulky pads or tampons. I have tried the period panties but to me I still feel like I’m wearing a diaper. Lol. They’re definitely not as cleanly as a menstrual cup or disc
Ok so the catsuit is exactly what I need - a full body compression suit. I have hypermobility issues and my joints wiggle a lot so that would hopefully keep me together with just enough pressure. And maybe it’s another base layer for our Canadian winters without be bulky long johns that makes you overheated indoors? I’m in Winterpeg so I need all the warmth I can get in the winter 🥶
I definitely won't be buying anything from skims but loved the review. As for the crazy period issues, I wear period panties from Amazon and use them with pads, panty liners or tampons and they are awesome.
I HATED supporting any Kardashian/Jenner business... However, SKIMS shapewear which is comparable in price to other named brands- but still pricey, I wanted a specific color and SKIMS had it ( & it's been discontinued) My experience: *I did like the packaging! *Fabric was very very nice *Color exactly what I wanted *Sizing /way off on the large sizes ( bras ) *I bought a pair of cotton socks to reach a total for free shipping. They were the best purchase My impression: overall..I would SIZE up I would not reorder
Just to put it in perspective….. cotton jersey material by the yard is around 50 dollars a yard! And being 100% cotton it is super breathable so you have to go out in the heat to feel the effect.
not the micro thong😭😭 i started wearing normal thongs and i feel like everything is out i cant imagine wearing that tiny triangle also!! you look amazing with that long sleeve dress💘💘 looks sooo good on you
Video idea: Followers style you, but like actually style you an outfit. Followers can DM you a full outfit design for you to buy, links and specifics and everything, and you wear it for a day.
mia on her period: zero bloating, angelic, no acne me when i wasn't constantly on the pill: looking pregnant, crying or angry, couldn't stand up hahah love you Mia! im not supposed 2 b spending $ rn but i am a huge fan of thongs and now im tempted dammit XD
@@annapruitt5546 It's both. The part that goes between the butt is a string making it a G-string and the front is lower than the pubic hairline making it a micro.
The black sheer shapeware was stunning w/ low neckline very 90s vibe. Also, with a cute bra underneath, blazer and high waisted trousers would suit your frame well! Also try deep purples 😁 Great content btw!
Mia, just a tip 4 periods & underwear: once you bleed through, take your underwear, rub a bit of soap(wet) over the stain & wash it with with warm water( if the stain isn't gone then put it in the washing machine). Option 2 is to fill a bucket with warm water & put detergent/soap/shampoo in it & let your underwear soak in it minimally a few hours,wash it(if stain is still there,washing machine)
I would correct you on the water temp: blood stains washes out the best with cold water! Once the water gets warmer, it actually gets harder to remove.
Doesn’t everyone do this already? My first period I got blood on my pants and this is what my parents did for me. And what I have done every period since. Do people just not clean off the blood?
I don’t know why I enjoy watching people reviews things I would never consider purchasing
Reminds me why I’m not going to buy them 😂

I must say, the sizing on that t-shirt makes me think that Skims might not be as body-inclusive as they seem to be (looking at their models etc). The black dress is very pretty, would look so good with pearls. Great video, Mia!
i think the catsuit would be great for people that dress modestly and want to layer trendier clothing on top while still maintaining coverage?
Exactly! It's such a bummer sometimes when I love a dress and realize the entire back is open or there's a slit at the leg
A lot of brands sell them! Its definitely a great product for layering lookup “sheer bodysuit”
You’re reaction when pulling the shapewear body suit out of the packaging was the same one I had with Lizzos shapewear. So be prepared! Lol. Can’t wait for that video! Thanks for the review!
So you mentioned ruining a bunch of underwear this period, and I wanted to recommend you try period underwear!! It's not as gross as I thought it would be, and as a backup for heavy days and on its own for light days, it's a game changer. I feel much more positive about my more eco-friendly period routine and have lost zero underwear since making the switch. I love the Knix brand! You should try it and maybe even do a video!
Side note: They say you can wear it on its own even on heavy days, but personally I do not find that comfortable.
AGREEEED!! They are literally a life saver !
I tried Knix’s super heavy duty ones and I was so upset when I realized the gusset didn’t go up far enough 😭
YES!! it's so comfortable and gives me the security i need!
and i literally just habe the primark ones, they're good, also have extra heavy ones for the heavy flow days! they're cheaper in the long run, and great for the environment!! also you don't have to stick anything up there
@@sarahwenger4479 oh no! for overnights, I use their sleep shorts. The gusset goes alllll the way up the front.
I laughed alot with this vid especially with the extra extra small body shapeware 😂😂😂 and the lil itibittieeee thong Thankyou so much you are such an awesome girl.
The catsuit under the dress looked very stylish and purposeful, especially when you got the pearl necklace on😍
Maybe the catsuit just needs to be worn so it's visible. Perhaps try it with a long tight skirt and bralette/corset top under or over it... mesh shirts are in now, right..?
That’s what I was thinking too! I would focus more on showing it than hiding it
I was thinking with a nice pair of jeans and a cute blazer
1st of all: We come for the weird.
2nd of all: That orchid slip dress on you gave me strong Cher in Clueless vibes.
For customs: some brands have "brokerage" built into the shipping price which is essentially paying it upfront. Often the sites will note if that's being charged and note that there won't be additional charges upon delivery. If the seller hasn't done that in advance then you will likely have to pay it upon delivery.
Came here for this. A US brand I buy from indicates it as shipping "Duties Paid" so they handle all the customs taxes and things so you as a costumer don't have to pay. And if there's a mishap they refund you the customs charges
Is it a Canadian thing? I’ve never had to pay customs in Australia
It’s not the brand charging that it’s the carrier. UPS is the worst for charging extra brokerage fees
@@abc-eb4zh Yes, Australia doesn’t charge customs on online shopping as long as it’s under a certain amount (not sure how much) but they did think about bringing it in for a while.
@@abc-eb4zh it's literally a tax charge by the government. So yes, all countries would be different
When you don't skip the AD to help pay for all these shopping Mia does for us.
$700 for those items and then $200 of shipping?? In Kim’s pocket??? I could NEVER!
Thank you Mia for being brave for us lol
Also that micro thing could NEVER fit me and my goods, I’d be spilling out bc there is literally NO gusset 😂
Ikr and imagine someone paying that £700 towards a small business run by one person who has a family to provide for and that business is their only income, it would literally make their entire year, pay their rent etc. Except people stick their nose up at paying out for small businesses, it’s constantly "omg that so overpriced" etc but people forget that one person made it, one person took time and energy creating something. I would much rather support that than a multimillionaire.
This comment is so relatable! Esp the end part lol! I want to try skims so bad but tbh i don't really want to support her
@@BecciBex Omg this is soooo true!!
"Do you need different shapewear for different articles of clothing?" Yes Mia, yes.
Let me explain the SKIMS micro thong and why I am happy it exists. I'm 5'2 about 185lbs (I just had a baby as well). The issue with "regular" thongs for me is the excess of material in the front. My vagina doesn't need all that material so "regular" thongs tend to look not as well fitting as these. I have a bit of a tummy and a lot of times other thongs will almost need to be hiked up on my waist more and obviously that looks funny, pull them down so they sit on my pubic area and it gets droopy because it's to much fabric....this is why I love these thongs.. Just because I am plus size doesn't mean everything on me is plus size
Is there a difference between a micro thong and a g-string?
@@annapruitt5546 good question and yep a lot of times there is. No difference from the back typically (but even with the back g string it'll still be way way to much "string") but a larger size g string still has to much fabric in the front as opposed to the micro thong. I'm telling you if you suffer from this issue I know the price is high but to me it's worth it. I started out with just one and when they go on sale I stock up because they work for my body type. Its all about what makes you feel "put together" confident and comfortable. I always struggled with regular thongs and g string fabric bunching up and that doesn't make me feel confident if I'm wearing tighter clothing.
Congrats on the baby and thank you for sharing your experience and reasoning of the micro thong!
I personally don't understand how a thong, let alone a micro thong, can be comfortable on anyone! I'm 5'8" and 140lbs, my stomach is flat and I don't think I'm big down there but I've tried thongs and the material shifts and goes to one side or the other making them uncomfortable. I also can't stand the back piece of elastic/material going up the crack of my butt. I constantly feel like my butt is eating my underwear and i have to pull it out, especially with jeans. I guess I'm stuck with my boring bikini bottoms because they just never feel comfy on me. Idk know how anyone can say they're comfortable unless I bought the wrong kind. 😕
Were they comfortable from the beginning for you or is it just something you need to get use to?
@@julietteoscaralphanovember2223 I feel like it is probably something you have to get used to. I may be wrong though
Like others... that black skims and black dress is EVERYTHING!! Like wear it to a gala or fancy dinner like before your wedding... you look amazing in it.
As a brazilian, we actually wear the micro thong... Some people can use it everyday, at first it is a bit strange but you'll get use to it with time. But ours undewears are mostly shorter than the rest of the world hahaha it was funny (and understandble) to see your reaction
Is that what regular underwear in Brazil looks like??? Like that micro thong? How do you wear that in normal life? Like how do you wear a pad? Don’t you get discharge and blood everywhere?
@@rachelcookie321 no! we have some type that are largest but they’re still smallest than the US/european style. i believe that most women use this one most of the time, but i know a lot who prefer the micro thong (except during the period, it really is impossible to use a pad kkkk)
@@joannakoehne9826 what about daily life? How do you use a panty liner?
as an argentinian these almost 40 celcius weathers got me wanting one too,, i wouldnt like even an extra unnecessary cm of clothing, catch me in a bikini whole summer
but why
I love the micro thong! I work as a model so it’s my go to for work. No lines and its so great for shooting swim because it tucks away easily
I can say that skims is probably no different than any other fast fashion brand in the matter of fairly treating the workers. Turkey became 2nd China for cheap labor. People work for minimum 45 hours per week and get the minimum wage which is equivalent to 245 usd
I don't know how it is with skims but as far as I know it is possible to produce ethically even in china.
The currency also is different in other countries like $100 was my aunt’s rent but in their currency is a lot more
@@merlin2946 Yes of course currency is different that’s why I wrote the amount in usd. To be able to compare, I can say cheapest rent you can find is around 200 usd nowadays +another comparison, a doctor’s salary is around 450-500 usd
@@idillacadillac When you talk about doctor salary and worker wages do you mean per week, month, or year?
There are good, ethical and fair manufacturers everywhere. However, the fact that Skims doesn’t offer any information about their manufacturers except for “we pay fair wages and ensure a safe environment” leads me to believe they actually aren’t ethical. Ethical brands usually include the certifications they’ve acquired and actual information about the manufacturers ensuring that employees don’t work over 40 hours a week, have health insurance, get paid vacation, have maternal leave and sick days, are paid more than minimum wage, etc. Many work with small family-owned manufacturers and even show pictures of the facilities. It’s a big red flag when brands like Skims aren’t transparent and provide little to no information about their manufacturers. In a case like this it’s safe to assume they’re not actually ethical.
I’m sorry but we LOVE a queen comfy with period talk 😂🥰
Thank you mia for shouting out the sizing issue. If that shirt is an extra large, then I must be built like a t rex, no hope of getting in any of that.
You make me laugh ahhahaha!!! Another t rex here
i think it’s supposed be really tight fitting just like in the photo
It’s meant to be a really tight fit if you look at the picture that was on the site. So if you want a loose fit yousize up
Unless it stretches like that bodysuit!😂🤣
Girl, I feel seen 😂
That purple dress that she tried on was absolutely ✨stunning✨ on her!!! She’s absolutely gorgeous.
I think people need to understand that the body doesn’t come with the clothing and I think that’s why everyone buys it because you get in your head that you might look like that.
Yeah that’s something I forget every time I online shop 😂 then it comes in the mail, I put it on and look like a potato and I’m like wtf lol
Or you can just wear what you like regardless? People don't need to look a certain way to wear certain clothes
Thongs in general are so expensive for the amount of fabric, i am a miner and i never bought any but i searched it up one day out of pure curiosity and found a pair for 29 dollors and it was just a thin piece of white sheer acrylic fabric… girl?!
i wish mama maples was also in this video like the last time! i want to hear her laugh over the tiny pieces again😂
*coughs* but let's be honest, i want mama maples to join mia in all the videos she can be in. i love their dynamic so much😆
Mama Maples + micro thong = missed opportunity.
Ditto!
You buying the micro thong had me in a panic attack because I was like girl HOW are you going to wear that and not blur it out?
But I'm happy with the result. That tan suit you have on under it always makes me laugh.
I would die for a Teddy Fresh haul from Mia. All ethically made too!
Oh it would be absolutely fire!
I agree. She would fit teddy fresh vibe so much also
Yessssss
Yeah but Ethan is not a good person so yeahhhh
@@peachxtaehyung HAHAHAHA ok
I appreciate how casually and openly you talk about your period. Ruined underwear? We've all been there! Let's normalize talking about periods!
I would never ever spend that much money on any clothing and 200 for basically shipping is crazy to me I love ur videos ❤️
200 for shipping is insane!
Same and I am talking about 200 rs , not 200 dollars I can't even imagine that much just for shipping.
$200 for shipping?! I have enough trouble justifying $25 shipping from the US to Aus, unless it’s an order over $100
@@EvelynRobinson22 right! I thought. Australia had it bad for shipping. Why is it so much in Canada?
The fit! 😍
That cat suit and dress does go very well together... You def rock that outfit Mia!!
I love how Mia checks her door is locked so no one sees her wearing the micro thong but also films her wearing it and shared it with hundreds and thousands of people 😂
Ps, love your videos Mia
We love and appreciate all you’re doing, Mia! Never worry about taking more time to do things you need to. The quality of your videos alone makes any number of videos per week worth it!💗 best of luck on wedding planning girl
She’s my favorite 💛
THAT BLACK WITH THE SHEER! OH MY WORD IT WAS STUNNNINGGGG😍😍😍
I'm fascinated by customs in Canada. It's required in Australia for the seller to collect it at the time of sale and it's always 10% so you know upfront what you're paying.
I wish! I’m Canadian and it depends on what the products are made of and what category they are from. The amount is based on the Canadian equivalent. At least that’s how it was kind of explained by a border guard who was charging me duty!
Me too! I feel the same way about shopping in a store in Australia VS shopping in a store in the US, I’m not great at calculating things quick, so didn’t know how much I was up for after tax 🤣 I’m so happy tax is included in the price here
I remember the shape wear video and your mom looked so incredible. It made me buy some, but I have to say, I don't look anywhere near as good as Mama Maples. It did help me feel better about myself when I have to dress up which thankfully isn't often
If you are that someone who's wearing micro tongs daily: please don't! lol
Every single obgyn I've talked to says they are awful for one's intimate health, because as you move and bend throughout the day the string moves bacteria between the back and the front and that's good for no one. I really hope people are buying those for occasional use, they are very much not meant to be worn every day 😬
I've never understood why it's supposed to be a problem that the outline of your underwear is visible under (skin) tight clothing. We all wear underwear (most people anyway), so who cares? Just wear underwear that's comfortable and protects the most sensitive parts of your body.
You won't catch me in a thong!
@@Angelofnine I have two tongs for when I occasionally feel like wearing those, but yeah. If the outline of an underwear is REALLY distracting me from the rest of my outfit, I go for those "invisible" seamless pieces and they usually do the trick even if you can still notice them if you stare too much. But I agree, we give way too much importance to looking like we aren't wearing underwear lol
..yeah as if I want to wear a string up my bum all day in the hot FL SUN/INDOORS....
This! I don't wear thongs any more b/c I got a nasty UTI from wearing one on a really hot day. I'm convinced it was caused by me sweating down below and not changing in to a dry pair of undies after. Sorry if that's TMI, but it does happen. I was miserable for 2 weeks. I'd much rather have VPL than a UTI.
Are people really wearing their thongs that deep in their buttcracks? Like up against your butthole? Why? It's not supposed to be there
I adore the lengths you go to show us the brands with the try on video. Just have to say your super sweet." I'm gonna lock the door because I don't think I can explain this". Mia everybody will see it you posted it to your channel. And we love you for it.😊
I felt seen when Mia was checking what material the underwear is made out of😁. Also underwear material 100% does matter, & is important for a number of reasons, one being breathability.
I think judging only from the amount of material there is, the breathability is pretty high on this one 😁
Right! I only buy underwear made from cotton (whether fully cotton or bamboo cotton)
honestly, the black dress with the sheet under is SO SO pretty. i actually love that on you !
i was HOLLERING at the bodysuit, it literally looks like a baby onesie LMAO
Have to say...impressed!!!
The to black pieces look great!
Shapewear and Lilac are nice too, in your right size.
Mia would you consider testing different period products like cups, period underwear, and etc I think that would be so interesting
That would be an awesome video. I started using the diva cup about 10 years ago and it is been a total life changer. Even on super heavy flow days, I could wear no underwear and be fine. I love menstrual cups but they do have a little bit of a learning curve. However, they are much better for the environment and feel much better than big bulky pads or tampons. I have tried the period panties but to me I still feel like I’m wearing a diaper. Lol. They’re definitely not as cleanly as a menstrual cup or disc
the black dress with the sheer underneath and the necklace gives off very moticia addams vibes and I'm livinggg for it
mia ur always so honest , and you always make me smile!! luv u, ur so absolutely gorgeous, never stop being u
Ok so the catsuit is exactly what I need - a full body compression suit. I have hypermobility issues and my joints wiggle a lot so that would hopefully keep me together with just enough pressure.
And maybe it’s another base layer for our Canadian winters without be bulky long johns that makes you overheated indoors? I’m in Winterpeg so I need all the warmth I can get in the winter 🥶
I definitely won't be buying anything from skims but loved the review. As for the crazy period issues, I wear period panties from Amazon and use them with pads, panty liners or tampons and they are awesome.
I've never been able to bring myself to buy skims but I appreciate the reviews on them
That black dress on Mia is gorgeous
The micro thong try on had me legit CACKLING out loud. Thank you for this, Mia. You are a legend!
mia:this has extreme tummy control. the before and after: looking the exact same 15:15
I HATED supporting any Kardashian/Jenner business...
However, SKIMS shapewear which is comparable in price to other named brands- but still pricey, I wanted a specific color and SKIMS had it ( & it's been discontinued)
My experience:
*I did like the packaging!
*Fabric was very very nice
*Color exactly what I wanted
*Sizing /way off on the large sizes
( bras )
*I bought a pair of cotton socks to reach a total for free shipping. They were the best purchase
My impression: overall..I would SIZE up
I would not reorder
i could hear mama maples' "noOoO MIAaaaa 😫" in my head immediately after seeing the microthong in the thumbnail
The first one is a very retro swim suit vibe! - I could see it more so as that!
Just to put it in perspective….. cotton jersey material by the yard is around 50 dollars a yard! And being 100% cotton it is super breathable so you have to go out in the heat to feel the effect.
Girl where are you buying 100% cotton jersey for FIFTY DOLLARS A YARD???? even organic jersey is like at most 20
OMG I LOVE THE WAY THE BLACK DRESS LOOKS ON YOUU!!! YOU LOOKKK absolutely stunning😍
That black dress looks absolutely stunning on you!
YAAAAS thank you for talking about periods and normalizing ruining underwear LOL. Honestly thank you!
i think this is early as i’ve been in a while. love everything you do, mia! nothing but serious gratitude for you & everything you do ✨🧡
The black dress with sheer underneath looked amazing on you!!
I honestly love skims, I am a plus size girl and have many items in many different categories and I loved all of them 🤷♀️💖💕
Omg i love the dress it looks so classy u look INCREDIBLE in it
not the micro thong😭😭 i started wearing normal thongs and i feel like everything is out i cant imagine wearing that tiny triangle
also!! you look amazing with that long sleeve dress💘💘 looks sooo good on you
I love the body shape wear with the black dress on you. It was absolutely perfect on you.
the black dress looks so classy, so nice on you!
Mia I would really like it if at the end of the videos you tell the details of your outfits/accessories you wore.The necklace is really cute😂❤️🫰🏻
Video idea: Followers style you, but like actually style you an outfit. Followers can DM you a full outfit design for you to buy, links and specifics and everything, and you wear it for a day.
She's done one video like that (it was a long time ago). I would love to see an updated one!
Could we get a plant video! Omg or try out some plant subscription/mystery boxes! Me and my little sister love your videos!
mia on her period: zero bloating, angelic, no acne
me when i wasn't constantly on the pill: looking pregnant, crying or angry, couldn't stand up
hahah love you Mia! im not supposed 2 b spending $ rn but i am a huge fan of thongs and now im tempted dammit XD
I love thongs too! The micro thong is really just a g string, right?
Amazon has similar ones way cheaper
@@annapruitt5546 It's both. The part that goes between the butt is a string making it a G-string and the front is lower than the pubic hairline making it a micro.
The black sheer shapeware was stunning w/ low neckline very 90s vibe. Also, with a cute bra underneath, blazer and high waisted trousers would suit your frame well! Also try deep purples 😁 Great content btw!
Mia! Don’t tell yourself to not be weird, we love your weird 😅
Yes, the catsuit and black dress look fabulous!
Mia, just a tip 4 periods & underwear: once you bleed through, take your underwear, rub a bit of soap(wet) over the stain & wash it with with warm water( if the stain isn't gone then put it in the washing machine). Option 2 is to fill a bucket with warm water & put detergent/soap/shampoo in it & let your underwear soak in it minimally a few hours,wash it(if stain is still there,washing machine)
I would correct you on the water temp: blood stains washes out the best with cold water! Once the water gets warmer, it actually gets harder to remove.
@@zzexiaa I'll try it out, thanks. Others can too, I guess it can also depend on how long the stain was there and what material it's made from.
Doesn’t everyone do this already? My first period I got blood on my pants and this is what my parents did for me. And what I have done every period since. Do people just not clean off the blood?
@@rachelcookie321 Don't know, just giving advice in case someone doesn't
The catsuit and dress together is suchhhh a luxurious look!!!! Love it!!
