You've encouraged me to experiment with my style and given me the confidence to wear them out. Keep doing what you do because you're making a positive impact on so many lives, mine included!

    @lovejessicablair I had a friend give me clothes to try on and she didn't even check the sizes before handing them to me, she just thought they were cute. It was an extremely long process realizing they all won't fit and I had to tell her that through the door in a public space. She meant well but oh my gosh 😭.

    I appreciate you sharing this, I wear between a size 10-14 depending on the garment and how I want it to fit, but I still have this mentality that thrifting isn't "for me." Every once in a while I'll go, but as a New Yorker I have only thrifted when I'm out of town. The thrifting scene in NY seems really different and my experience matches yours (expensive, disappointing, way less selection than out of town, and weird scenarios happening inside the stores lol)

    The way that you’re an otherworldly goddess through and through. One of the reasons I love you and your channel so much is that you totally get that style is about how you feel, and that clothing is a cool ass form of expression - it’s not just about the look. (Which you’re always pulling the baddest, coolest, most unique looks I must add.) This whole video had me thinking about how my wardrobe must werk for me and that I want to continue to thrift things that I know I’m gonna get so much use out of! The snail tie was a must and your mom is an icon for many reasons including finding that dog bag. Sending u all the love Jess 🫰🏼🎋🪷✨🌸🎐🪩

    I really respect the authenticity of not finding much and not overbuying. I love shopping, collecting, and self-expression, but with how normalized overconsumption is even in thrifting, it can be hard to not get something "just to get something."

Lastly, I’m gonna go back to finishing the video happy new year!

    I love the sentiment you have about not needing to follow trends and instead make a wardrobe that one can instead style and feel good about no matter any trends that are big at the present moment! Love your style too, I adored the snail tie (I have snail earrings that reminded me of the print), and your black and grey striped scarf is so cute and fun! Your style makes me think sometimes of indie game characters or the early Resident Evil games! For some reason your outfits sometimes remind me of Claire Redfield. And the gorgeous furcoat is like If Albert Wesker was a super cool badass woman!

    I'm also plus sized and primarily thrift all my clothes. I usually have quite a bit of luck doing so, but I mostly shop the men's section. My style is kind of...goblin/grandpa core, I guess. So thrifted big man clothes work absolutely perfectly for that. 🤷 Also! You absolutely give Penelope Garcia vibes! Omg that is so iconic. Low key jealous!

    I agree about the physical media with prices going up on streaming services and everything else really. I’m of a similar size, truthfully, a bit bigger. I’m a big thrifter and get, as much as, possible, second hand, (thrift, eBay, etc). I love raiding the mens section at the thrift. I’m very much a vintage lover and have an eclectic style. (I’m a sag.). I so need to add the Macklemore song to several of my playlists. I kinda forgot about it, tbh. I also have to be careful about wearing heels. I got a knee injury at work and found out I have arthritis in both knees. 🤦‍♀️ long story longer, I enjoyed your video because clearly I relate to quite a bit of it.

I see a lot of KZreadrs using thread up, and I think they have a big plus size selection, I don’t know just an opinion.
