I Went To New York With An Empty Suitcase & Came Back With A New Wardrobe

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Thanks to Foreo for partnering with me on today's video!
I am the worst when it comes to shopping for new clothes, and oftentimes feel uninspired in Seattle. New York has such a great energy, and some of the best shopping- so I packed my essential products, NO clothes- and went on a shopping spree for some new outfits!

    This video is such a great concept. I love it! Especially as someone who works in Corp, I love seeing you get office appropriate clothes. You should do a video of you being professionally styled by a stylist for a new work wardrobe

    I second this. I was hoping this video would do that. I don't think you're gonna find cool stuff outside of your style without someone experienced with a different perspective. We all fall into the same patterns you are...and a styling sess would be fun to vicariously through!! :)

Watch the Utuber Jake Bro his hobby is getting the best rewards even with a simple three card set up. Companies will play with the rewards, making them sound great. By changing your set of cards, you will come out dollars ahead.

    Sometimes with oversizedblazers I feel you have to lean in to the baggier style a bit. So with certain silhouettes trying to style it too fitted/feminine underneath doesn’t really help. I recently bought a similar oversized blazer and rather than doing a skinny Jean underneath, perhaps try straighter legged or even a baggier, or flared pant underneath (depends on your style). I’m living in Europe and this style is quite popular right now, so I also see a lot of the women wear those exact blazers with a fitted skirt or some paper bag shorts (usually leather or black) over sheer tights or even fishnets, with a combat boot (chunkier-think closer to a Dr. Marten) and then whatever top works! It’s all about styling that really helps.

    You’re so right, you could go to the same store in another town and not find anything and then go to the same store in NYC and find a whole new wardrobe. And LA has a lot of great shopping as well, but I tend to shop with a New York mentally as well. (I’ve lived in both cities, so know this problem well)

    The longer skirt was really nice. You should pair it with some high-heeled Tall boots. And a chunky sweater. That would look really nice. But if you’re wanting it to be shorter just get it hemmed. I know that you don’t spend a lot on your clothes but getting things tailored will be a game changer. I’m 4’11 and have to get everything tailored . Loved all your choices

Especially when all I could find in Florida was flip flops, crop tops, and clothes for retirees hahaha. The last time I was shopping in New York though, it made me upset to see people buy carts and carts of discounted clothes at Macy’s with the obvious intention of reselling the clothes online. It makes it so there are a lot less deals for the general consumer!! Grrr!
