Mine was back when I was trying on wrist bands and hair bands back in elementary, I thought that not many would have it, since most kinds of kids were obsessed being friends with someone whose popular and getting their style instead, but I was wrong including the cute decor hand clips that were colorful, when I got out of elementary and I got into 6th grade, outside of school someone wore the same old shit I used to have and some hair clips with a hair band, maybe a student I saw when I was in class back in elementary wore a wrist band to class, So yes call me basic, But basic With fashionable sense 💕

Its weird because you cant be "basic" or "boring" but the second somebody starts to actually dress act and do things out of the norm and truly starts to express their creativity they arent called "quirky" or "interesting" most of the time these people are bullied and made fun of.

Also when people are scrutinizing every little thing you wear use or do it's easy to find intersections in what we use and do.

I don’t know how to explain this totally right but I’m gonna try. As a person who suspects of oneself to be on the autism spectrum, it’s been all my life to be “basic” to fit, and have tried all my life to do what other people do, failing many times because of being “weird” …”a freak”… and other people have made me feel bad because of not being “normal”. So it’s a bit upsetting to see other people romanticizing the “not like other girls” just to the perfect amount that people find you amusing… because when you are truly too much of a different thing… they hate you and reject you. Just know as an adult I have find a group of people who truly appreciate me, but even then I don’t talk about all my “special interest” because they will think poorly of me. Although it’s totally fine for me to like “basic” things… they are popular for a reason so maybe we can get something useful from those things. I don’t know if I made any sense but those are my two cents… I expect I won’t offend anyone, I’m sorry if I do, this is just my opinion and as an old teacher said “my world it’s not the world”.

Thinking back on it now, everyone else was just naturally able to fall in line without necessarily actively thinking about it, or didn't care/bother to conform. I was also very sensitive, so a look could make me cry, but my concentrated and deliberate but failed efforts to identify the things that bothered the other girls and some boys, when I really started to notice it, were like a toddler drawing a portrait like an adult that is an experienced artist. It probably seemed even weirder because I would go through periods of withdrawal from all my peers, when the constant rejection, subtle or not, became too emotionally painful to endure. The loneliness would set in, and I would begin another sad attempt of working for approval. I still remember my first day transferring into 4th grade and forcing my timid self to walk up to the group of girls from class and asking "can I play with you guys?", my first faux pas due to lack of prior unilateral rejections, the eye rolls, exchange of glances, immediate shift in the previously lively atmosphere, the scoffed "we're not playing", and the next 5 minutes of me not getting the social cues and asking why some of the girls are running off any time I tried to join the conversation until one said "it's because you're here", and sure enough, the satellite groups merged back into one big happy party of innocent 10 year old girls as soon as I left to sit by the schoolyard's door, waiting for the bell. 😅 It doesn't sting anymore when I think back on the memory, but it did for over a decade before I stopped feeling a strong desire to connect with others and the pain of any semblance of rejection, which, to me at the time, was like a stab to the heart and a kick to the stomach, internally I was silently responding to the looks of disgust or laughter behind my back with 'I apologize for needing to adhere to the teacher's requirements, I'm just doing this for my grade, I know we both don't want to be here right now, just tolerate me for two seconds and I'll get out of your face'. Now, I am fulfilled with the family I have and my sprinkle of friends that were socially inclined but were somehow happy to have my company and sought me out. Plus there's more time to indulge in hobbies without stressing about maintaining relationships 😊

we are all unique, which makes us the same

I was bullied my whole life for my style. My bullies dated the guys RIGHT after I dated them. Like no cap. And my bullies went so far as to get the same tattoo placements as me.

Uniqueness is the amalgamation of inspiration

When I was a kid sometimes I was scared of someone thinking I’d copy them. My mom then told me it wouldn’t matter and that the person that I „copied“ should be seeing it as a compliment. And if someone copied me, I should see it as a compliment too🌸 I think that’s just one of the best things I have learned as a child 🌿

Bro I don't even feel unique I straight up feel like an outcast 💀💀

In my humble opinion, I agree that everyone is inspired by others and that is really something I like to do, and I’m pretty sure that, just like you said, everyone does. I’m actually not ashamed of it, as… that’s kind of how society works, BUT TO ME, there is a difference between being inspired by your channel for example, and making videos about topics I’m interested in; opposite to copying someone and suddenly: wearing the same hair colour as you, copying your video editing style, typography, even topics and giving basically the same opinion and thoughts you did, and the way you move your hands when you’re explaining something, the lighting, fill my instagram feed with similar photos, with similar poses and similar outfits that resemble you. Never did I even do that with my older sisters, of course I copied them… only not to the extent that I wanted to actually BE them. Not specifically speaking of Hayley Bieber because like you said, people can definitely be inspired and selena gomez is a very inspirational person but, I get where people think hayley crossed the line, and I think you simplified it a little bit too much. You’re obviously right but at the same time, it’s just too weird, whether it’s a propaganda orchestrated by them both, or just one of them or she really is obsessed, something’s off.

one of the thing that gets my blood boiling with people who try so hard to be different, it's when we actually are different, like alternative styles, listening to unknown music or liking a specific weird kind of art, we're just in the "weird" case and nobody wants to talk to us or interact with us, except people who understand us. People want to be the right kind of "different" and that's sad, just be yourselves it's much better. As for "stealing" other people's fashion or manierism or personality traits, it's just life ? Like if several of you're friends talk a certain way you're likely going to talk like that as well.

My most unbasic flex is not having social media. But lmao who even cares live your life

I might not be the sharpest of the shiniest tool, but i think im good enough for those i drew in and those i surronded myself with.

I think the reason behind why being unique seems more appetizing is because it shows confidence Expressing true confidence in places you don’t belong appeals to others It’s bc it shows someone genuine Yet… with applying the most basic standards many people try too hard to stay away from Making efforts to fit in can show fake confidence no matter how unique you make yourself It doesn’t work the same 😂

12:10 THIS!! IDK how to express my thoughts and emotions but that one line made my eyes water. Ever since I was a child I always believed in "Be Unique". Sometimes to be unique I forget what I like and what I dislike. Right now, I am in my mid-teen years and I am struggling with my confidence. Sometimes I also felt like I need to be unique and different in whatever I do, to chase my dreams and ambitions. Like, I love doing art but when I found out most of the people also do a better job in arts in my class I felt bad and sometimes I was even jealous. I am a person who loves doing multiple things. Sometimes I even forced myself to like some activities so I can be different, and unique and also fit in/relate to what others do. But I was never passionate about those things I forced myself to do. Even though RN I enjoy all things, I am still struggling to do something just by enjoying it. I also want to thank Zoe. Her ways of thinking always allow me to expand my ways. It allows me to see things differently than just believing one person's POV.

at the end of the day, we’re just a collection of the things we admire and/or have picked up on. different interpretations you have of those things are up to you, but in itself are made by concocting the morals you’ve heard about in this life. you’re amazing, and no definition of basic or outlandish really exists; we humans made those terms. be good enough for yourself! love this video btw, it inspires me :)

I started to realise this which at first made me feel so not special Friend groups are all the same Gossip, fun times, laughs, drama, deep talks And at first I minded, I wanted to have something special with my friends, not something basic Now I’m like, who cares. Good friend groups solved the problem Its like wanting another way to solve 1+1=2 🤷🏻‍♀️ If it works and I like it, it’s fine

I used to cool myself "weird" or "different" when I was in my young to mid-teens until I found a bunch of other teenagers doing the same and resolved If I was like them and saying the same things, I could not be "different". I just let other people use that label on me if they feel it's an appropriate description. although I try to no longer hold on to it tightly, my life choices will determine whether I'm swimming upstream, not my day-to-day actions.

I kind of had the opposite problem when I was in my class in school...I tried to fit in but our views were vastly different, so I felt pretty lonely. Now I have different courses, thus I got to know more people and made new friends with similar views. I'm looking forward to go to university since I'll probably meet even more people with similar interests and views on life :)

Love watching your videos it just so good and always on point 💞

I never wanted to be different but I've been told I am and its not as great as people think it is. I don’t know famous people, I dont stay close to trends but will take what I like from them, I think dating in high-school stupid, my music taste is odd to a lot of people I know, Im very socially anxious. But then I started to find groups of peoples more I am more comfortable with and the difference is that im not different. People like the same music and styles I do. I think relating to others and inspiration are better then being 100% unique because sometimes that feels really lonely.

In my opinion every one is different in their own ways yet still we somehow are similar to each other Social media has made everything about “coping”like in the shops you have a multiple copy of the same shirt,jacket,t shirt,pants etc for a reason it’s funny when you do something first someone who does it after you is coping you If we continue to do this in a few years the world will be like “wait you breathe air??guys this person is coping me”

i really hope you read this i’m in my teens and you’re really helping me through my way to be more honest with myself i always wanted to look different i really don’t know how to explain myself but i think you just helped me entirely reset my brain also i think you’re a really smart person congrats

I’m 31 so this information on young celebs keeps me hip lol. As someone who still has all the songs I bought on itunes, It blows my mind that people listen to music they don’t enjoy just for their Spotify wrapped or whatever! I listen to everything from Britney Spears to Disturbed and Metallica lol.

It's always a good day when we have a new vídeo in your Channel. Love the new hairstyle.

i agree with a lot of what you say, but i do feel that there are some points you miss. when you are excluded socially because you dress different or because your key interests are considered too unusual or weird, I understand why people try to take back the word and call themselves weird. Its to empower yourself and keep going until you find people that you fit in with. Society does deem people weird, its a thing which i feel like isnt discussed at all in this video. At that point you can accept who you are and change or you can embrace the fact that others dislikw your weirdness and stay true to yourself.

There is nothing wrong with getting inspiration, adopting behaviors, personality traits or habits, since we probably don't even notice it sometimes

Okay but with this Selena/Hailey drama people tend to forget but they have a whole teams working on their personal brands - so a lot of similarities may come from those individuals taking ideas from the same source. Exactly the same way you see brands copying ideas from others because they see an opportunity. Its all business at the end of the day 😅

*In a world of Haileys and Selenas,just be you* ❤ Toxic Selenators and Toxic Hailey fans please do some work and stop comparing every inch of their lives, they're too old for this now.

I love this video, that came form the “drama” ugh. But honestly the “stealing like an artist” is most of the time just stealing/racism/misogyny, etc. Especially if it’s Pablo Picasso 👀👀

As an artist and writer I'll fully admit this: none of my ideas are original, something I often do is list of the songs, characters, shows, etc that inspired my creation, and it really does show how unoriginal art really is

I don't follow either of the two involved in this ~controversy~ and I mainly know Selena from her makeup line, but idk... I find it incredibly hard to believe the copying is because of some subconscious admiration or respect. Everything celebrities do is calculated. I think we're being a little too generous with the takes in this video (although it was still good!)

@@alyx417 Well of course not literally everything. I don't think they're strategically planning what to eat for breakfast lol. But obviously they have a public image and, yes, people that help them make (what they think will be) the best moves for their career and earn the most clout. I'm sure input varies on a case by case basis. Also pretty sure everyone is aware of this.

@@Ray03595 not really sure what you mean by this? I'm not a fan of either. I'm just pretty cynical when it comes to stuff like this, maybe I'm not being totally fair to them? Don't know

we're all the same yet we're all unique. humanity is cool & weird!

The thing about people trying not to be basic is that people are more attracted to an average person as they would be less likely to be diseased in previous times so if your trying to be unique for a mate you don’t really need to

I have been basic all my life and never had problems of people judging me. Since I became an extreme people pleaser (toxic relationship) I had this insecure urge to stand out and changed my style to what was 'in' or i thought was and since that shift happened, people started to feel way more confident to shame or bully me for who I was desperately trying to be and that is somebody else! People sense fakeness. Being basic is being authentic, i guess thats whats going on here most..

I think everyone is unique no matter what you like

Love your vids ❤💕🌸

You nailed it 🙏🏻

It was a great video, thanks for making this honey 🍯✨

i love your new hair Zoe❤❤ and we're all basic lol

Me being with Zoe from her 100k and now making our way to 1M Zoe you are heart

I don't remember where I read it or heard it, but it was that in our modern society we're so worried about being unique to claim our individuality that we ended up being individualized, detached from our fellow humans.brothers and sisters. What I'm saying is sometimes being basic or to copy someone' else is just a sign that we want to be closer to each other and I think that's great.

Oh god seeing the pick me girls vids annoys me since I keep being called like that The thing is I have social anxiety so when I'm in public I try my best to be perfect. I don't even interact with males nor want their love I act in a certain way bc of me and yet I still get called pick me girl😐 I hope the day when others realise it's none of their business come soon

I’m gonna rewatch this and take a shot every time you spin around on that chair 😂

There was an article I read, years ago now that talked about how misogynistic the term "basic" had evolved to be because it targeted girls/women liking the things that are marketed to them! It's kind of wild when you think about it like that. There's also a great College Humor video from years ago they did about how "frappes are amazing and Christmas lights are cozy! of course you want them!" Like I'll throw the insult at my husband, but it's more as a reference to The Good Place than the actual meaning of it. I don't really care about celebrity drama anymore, I spent a large portion of my life engrossed (I was always around alllllll of the gossip magazines) and it just isn't interesting to me anymore because everyone is terrible now lol. But I did think it the similarities was interesting, but it was also under a microscope, so of course it's going to seem more extreme. People probably latch onto the conspiracy of it because of who the ex is.

I also think that it's never really about being unique, it's about fitting in. Because even though everyone tries to be unique, it is still considered weird when you're really doing something different. Like there's this distinction between "cool unique " and " uncool, weird unique".

I didn’t know people were this concerned about being the same or different from others😅

Loved the vid and your perspective on your mindset on “originality” but I just gotta say I hope this dress gets repeated bc it is 🤌🏻

fashion and copying everything is different 🤷🏼‍♀️ My friend has similar style to Selena but I've never seen her in the exact same clothes or doing the exact same tattoos

Even Selena did the same star tattoo Hailey did in the same place and nobody blink an eye. But just ONE tattoo Selena did first before Hailey, people are shouting🤷. But most of this copying thing Hailey did it first that's why you can't find the date in most.

Being basic may be the new "unique". 😮

not every time two women fight we should say no we support others women no if someone did something wrong then it should be punish

I always was uppset because I couldn't be creative and invent a new design. I didn't know that it's okey if I copy designs from my ancestors or this generation, untill I heard you now. Thank you for the video. I'm less upset now. :)

I really feel like being the most basic or kinda boring person by nature like sometimes it hits me so hard....i can't even adjust to people's talks or anything like being really very socially awkward and idk how to be over this....

I never understood the problem with “basic” tbh like sorry I’m having a fun chill lifestyle 💀
