1:08
Speaker 2: And so you chicks for a checklist. You guys love
1:12
Speaker 2: these episodes.
1:12
Speaker 1: Yeah, but before we get into the episode, what is
1:16
Speaker 1: your obsession of the week?
1:18
Speaker 3: Okay, mine is a quick one. It's the Who's the Asshole?
1:22
Speaker 3: Podcast hosted by Katier of Trixy and Cartier fame.
1:27
Speaker 2: What how do I not know about that?
1:29
Speaker 3: So if you are a fan of RuPaul's drag Race
1:32
Speaker 3: and Cartier and Trixy and whatnot, you may have seen this.
1:36
Speaker 3: It's actually a grinder podcast, So it's a it's a
1:39
Speaker 3: branded stop I Love I Love this, yeah, hosted by
1:44
Speaker 3: Cartier and every week she has a different guest and
1:48
Speaker 3: the lineup has been amazing so far. She's had Lisa Rinner,
1:52
Speaker 3: Adam Lambert, bow and Yang and got Mick as well,
1:56
Speaker 3: and it's so so funny, So definitely.
1:59
Speaker 1: Check it out. Okay, my obsession, which I've also asked
2:04
Speaker 1: the chicks their opinion on this, and it is the
2:07
Speaker 1: Pretty Little Thing rebrand. This is like absolutely my obsession
2:13
Speaker 1: because I have read a bunch of articles and I'm
2:16
Speaker 1: just really trying to understand what the goal was here,
2:21
Speaker 1: because this rebrand has essentially just fallen flat.
2:26
Speaker 3: Yeah.
2:26
Speaker 1: So to give a bit of context, Pretty Little Thing
2:29
Speaker 1: also known as PLT, once synonymous with like vibrand body
2:34
Speaker 1: Con Club where like I think I befa Baby Raves
2:38
Speaker 1: has undergone this dramatic transformation. So the fast Fashioned Giant
2:44
Speaker 1: has rebranded and traded its flashy bold colored party outfits
2:49
Speaker 1: for a more muted, elevated neutrals esthetics and beyond.
2:54
Speaker 2: This like color palette shift.
2:56
Speaker 1: This rebrand has sparked a much broader conversation about fast
3:02
Speaker 1: fashion's evolving landscape and the underlying messages, especially within the
3:07
Speaker 1: political landscape.
3:08
Speaker 2: And the tradwife trend.
3:10
Speaker 1: And there's this quote from The New Feminist UK that
3:15
Speaker 1: I was laughing but like not funny hah, half funny weird,
3:18
Speaker 1: and it said basically the rebrand is old money cosplay
3:22
Speaker 1: but polyester. So the argument here isn't about style, but
3:27
Speaker 1: I think what it represents. And historically old money fashion,
3:31
Speaker 1: which is what this rebrand is absolutely going for, has
3:35
Speaker 1: been associated with exclusivity, wealth and social hierarchy and the
3:39
Speaker 1: oltra feminine, hyper sexy styles of the twenty tens that
3:42
Speaker 1: was very pretty little thing has faded away and moved
3:46
Speaker 1: towards this very conservative aesthetic, which is where I think
3:51
Speaker 1: a lot of concern and backlash rightfully so is coming from.
3:56
Speaker 1: And TikTok creator It's Sophie Milner said in a video,
4:00
Speaker 1: really sinister happening right now. Plt's rebrand to a fake
4:04
Speaker 1: old money aesthetic is saying a lot about fashion right
4:06
Speaker 1: now and the shift towards conservatism in the way women
4:10
Speaker 1: are starting to act and move in society, and another
4:13
Speaker 1: Twitter user also said every model is skinny, every model
4:17
Speaker 1: is white. Minus one and plus sizes are basically gone.
4:21
Speaker 1: This rebrand feels elitist and racist.
4:23
Speaker 2: This is terrible. I have to say.
4:26
Speaker 1: When I went and looked on the site, I did
4:28
Speaker 1: feel like the representation that was on Pretty Little Thing
4:33
Speaker 1: had definitely lessened. It did feel like there was one
4:38
Speaker 1: aesthetic and one thing they were going for. And I
4:41
Speaker 1: do think one thing that Pretty Little Thing was often
4:44
Speaker 1: critiqued for was being basically a hub of micro trends. Right,
4:47
Speaker 1: but is this not just yet another trend? Yeah?
4:51
Speaker 3: So that's a huge critique that I've seen of this
4:55
Speaker 3: rebrand is that it's quite risky to base your entire
5:00
Speaker 3: rebrand on a micro trend which is quite luxury, old
5:07
Speaker 3: money aesthetic and the Sofia.
5:10
Speaker 2: Richie of it all.
5:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, which I do think is a really interesting take
5:15
Speaker 3: because I guess what they're saying, because the whole branding
5:18
Speaker 3: is about building legacy, isn't it for pretty little things.
5:21
Speaker 1: And timeless pieces that you can wear and wear again?
5:24
Speaker 1: But my question here is are you making it.
5:27
Speaker 2: With materials that you can wear and wear again? And
5:30
Speaker 2: when I went on.
5:30
Speaker 1: Their site, their prices have gone up, but their materials
5:33
Speaker 1: have stayed the same, and that was a very common
5:37
Speaker 1: opinion of the chicks.
5:39
Speaker 2: When I put the.
5:40
Speaker 1: Question box up on Instagram, so many people said, congratulations,
5:45
Speaker 1: it's Meshki two point zero, like they're trying to be Meshgi.
5:48
Speaker 2: It's basically they're coming for like.
5:50
Speaker 1: The Meshki the dish and trying to do that, except
5:53
Speaker 1: they've raised their prices. And when I went on their
5:55
Speaker 1: new arrival site and I also saw Yeah mag saying this,
5:59
Speaker 1: I would say eighty percent up is still over eighty
6:02
Speaker 1: percent polyester in terms of fabric composition, And there are
6:05
Speaker 1: certain scenarios that you can look at. Katerina Riley that
6:10
Speaker 1: polyester sometimes is a good material to be included when
6:15
Speaker 1: a garment needs structure because polyester holds its structure, but
6:18
Speaker 1: you don't want it to be like eighty percent. So
6:22
Speaker 1: for example, in this video, Katerina was saying, when you're
6:24
Speaker 1: looking at a coat, you would look for potentially ten
6:27
Speaker 1: to max thirty percent polyester because versus wool, so like
6:31
Speaker 1: seventy percent thirty percent polyester so that that garment keeps
6:35
Speaker 1: its structure. So blazers often have a little bit of
6:37
Speaker 1: polyester in them, but it is depending on how much.
6:41
Speaker 1: Like that's the thing of where the cost and pricing
6:43
Speaker 1: and quality comes into it. The other critique that I've
6:47
Speaker 1: seen of this is basically, pretty Little Thing has excluded
6:51
Speaker 1: its entire shopping base, its.
6:53
Speaker 2: Entire target market, its entire target.
6:55
Speaker 1: Market because the people that were shopping there aren't shopping
6:59
Speaker 1: for this stuff, and the people that are shopping for
7:01
Speaker 1: that old money, luxury, timeless pieces that you can wear
7:05
Speaker 1: time and time again aren't going to be shopping them
7:07
Speaker 1: a Pretty Little Thing.
7:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll be really interested to see as the reviews
7:11
Speaker 3: come in, what people say about the quality when they're
7:14
Speaker 3: trying it on, and how that word of mouth impacts
7:18
Speaker 3: their customer base, and how they pursue this rebrand going forward.
7:22
Speaker 1: Very interesting, and I do definitely think the political landscape
7:25
Speaker 1: at the moment has a massive influence on it. Where
7:29
Speaker 1: I think this rebrand has missed the mark is that
7:32
Speaker 1: in the fashion industry, inclusivity and high end branding have
7:35
Speaker 1: very rarely gone hand in hand and affordable and fast
7:38
Speaker 1: fashion brands have traditionally been more responsive to economic realities,
7:44
Speaker 1: offering extended size ranges and budget friendly options. In contrast,
7:49
Speaker 1: luxury labels have largely maintained exclusivity in both pricing and representation,
7:53
Speaker 1: and this is on purpose.
7:54
Speaker 2: It's to remain.
7:56
Speaker 1: Exclusive, right, So, if Pretty Little Thing is now moving
7:59
Speaker 1: away from both affordability and inclusivity, it begs the question
8:03
Speaker 1: of what purpose does the brand serve in its new form.
8:06
Speaker 3: Well, I think they had a huge opportunity to take
8:09
Speaker 3: this rebrand and do something potentially positive. Like you, Pretty
8:15
Speaker 3: Little Thing could probably afford to introduce more organic fabrics
8:21
Speaker 3: into their products if they wanted to, and that would
8:26
Speaker 3: have made much more of a splash if they were
8:28
Speaker 3: to do that in the rebrand, because you know, a
8:31
Speaker 3: big critique of brands that do offer more inclusive size
8:35
Speaker 3: ranges is that they very rarely feature high percentages or
8:39
Speaker 3: any sort of percentage of an organic fabric, and that
8:42
Speaker 3: is often plastic fashion as people call it. That would
8:45
Speaker 3: have made so much more of an impact if they
8:48
Speaker 3: chose to do something like that instead of completely turning
8:51
Speaker 3: their back on their existing customer base completely, and that
8:55
Speaker 3: part of the market is already so saturated, so I
8:58
Speaker 3: don't know what they were thinking neither.
9:00
Speaker 1: And if you go on their Instagram from the rebrand,
9:02
Speaker 1: there's not a single curve model in their rebrand on
9:06
Speaker 1: their whole Instagram, which they've wiped that I might who
9:11
Speaker 1: thought that was a good idea?
9:13
Speaker 2: I just yeah, I don't get it.
9:15
Speaker 1: And so anyway, so some of the chicks responses when
9:18
Speaker 1: I asked them their thoughts was the font gives New York.
9:22
Speaker 2: Italian restaurant vibes. I'm not made. We're all saying it.
9:27
Speaker 1: Meshki two point zero? Where do I buy my club
9:30
Speaker 1: clothes from?
9:31
Speaker 2: Now? Where is the color in the world.
9:35
Speaker 1: It's the same crappy quality, just reshot at a higher
9:38
Speaker 1: price point. Someone else said, what in the traadwife old money?
9:42
Speaker 2: Is this?
9:44
Speaker 1: Oh? Same shit, different brand, We're just chasing the same
9:47
Speaker 1: endless goalpost. Someone said, Lol, it's giving inspired by two
9:51
Speaker 1: broat chicks, and yeah, I get that. Someone else said, yuck,
10:00
Speaker 1: oh another one, and I'm going to leave it on
10:01
Speaker 1: this one because it's my favorite.
10:05
Speaker 2: All yeah, not be honest.
10:07
Speaker 1: There were definitely some responses of people saying they liked it,
10:10
Speaker 1: and that's fine. They're totally entitled to do that, and
10:13
Speaker 1: there are other people that were like, what the fuck.
10:15
Speaker 2: They re branded? When did this happen?
10:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, like I got whiplash.
10:20
Speaker 1: I think it's very interesting. But feel free to let
10:22
Speaker 1: us know what you think about the rebrand.
10:24
Speaker 3: Further, you can dm us on ig leave a comment
10:28
Speaker 3: on Spotify. Yeah, we want to hear all the hot takes.
10:31
Speaker 1: But anyway, let's get into the episode. I think it's
10:39
Speaker 1: a good segue to get into our checklist further and
10:43
Speaker 1: talk autumn style trends.
10:46
Speaker 2: And I wanted to start with the autumn style.
10:49
Speaker 1: Trends you very likely already own. So I love talking
10:53
Speaker 1: about trends, but I think it's really good to also
10:56
Speaker 1: discuss the trends that people very likely already own. So
10:59
Speaker 1: that way you can be like, oh, how can I
11:01
Speaker 1: play with this this year? How can I, you know,
11:04
Speaker 1: look at something I already own and restyle it or
11:07
Speaker 1: re wear it in a way that I haven't typically before.
11:10
Speaker 2: So to no surprise to anyone.
11:12
Speaker 1: Our colors of autumn are do you want to guess?
11:15
Speaker 2: Do you want to guess what they are? Burgundy? Brown? Yes? Green, yes,
11:21
Speaker 2: no way?
11:23
Speaker 1: So brown's greens and deep toned cherry reds. I do
11:27
Speaker 1: feel like we are seeing a shift at the moment
11:31
Speaker 1: to brown as the neutral over black.
11:35
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like brown is.
11:37
Speaker 1: Becoming the new black, and it has also had a
11:42
Speaker 1: seventy percent increase in interest according to Google Trends. But yeah,
11:46
Speaker 1: I do feel like there's this shift between blacks as
11:48
Speaker 1: like the base neutral and brown's. And then the other
11:52
Speaker 1: trend that you very likely already have is denim. We're
11:55
Speaker 1: seeing lots of double denim. We're seeing lots of oversized denim,
11:59
Speaker 1: shack it denim jeans, denim pleated skirts, overalls are also
12:05
Speaker 1: having a moment. You probably don't already own those, but
12:08
Speaker 1: you get.
12:08
Speaker 2: Also another good one to pick up at op shops. Yeah,
12:11
Speaker 2: so cute.
12:12
Speaker 1: And last but not least, but oversized coats, knits and
12:16
Speaker 1: jackets again really good to pick up at thrift stores.
12:20
Speaker 2: Go to the men's section. You'll have a field day.
12:23
Speaker 1: But Paris Fashion Week is also on at the moment,
12:27
Speaker 1: and one thing that I have seen as like an
12:30
Speaker 1: invisible string of similarity through all of these shows this
12:34
Speaker 1: like ethereal whimsy, fairytale vibe, and I am eating that
12:42
Speaker 1: shit up like truly. So many pieces across so many
12:47
Speaker 1: shows look like they've fallen straight out of like a
12:51
Speaker 1: fantasy book with like lace, frills, fur slips, the Zimmerman Show.
12:58
Speaker 2: Don't that's my obsession of the wake.
13:01
Speaker 3: I have been eating that up every pace is gorgeous.
13:05
Speaker 1: It's this like fairy, witchy Elvin princess era that I
13:10
Speaker 1: am so here for. And I can't say I'm surprised
13:13
Speaker 1: because I don't know if I'm biased here, but I
13:16
Speaker 1: wonder if the rise of fantasy books and like the
13:22
Speaker 1: rise of romancey and fantasy within pop culture at the
13:26
Speaker 1: moment has influenced fashion.
13:28
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so.
13:29
Speaker 3: And it also ties very nicely with the rise of
13:33
Speaker 3: the boho trend again because silks, ruffles, lace and pairing
13:39
Speaker 3: that with things like a suede or a leather is
13:43
Speaker 3: very much in line with that. So I think it
13:44
Speaker 3: marries those two different trends that we're seeing at the moment,
13:48
Speaker 3: and I'm obsessed.
13:49
Speaker 2: I love it.
13:50
Speaker 1: Give me all the ethereal whimsical fantasy fashion vibes. And
13:55
Speaker 1: you're so right for that, tosune, because I got my
13:58
Speaker 1: little data had on and was looking at Google trends
14:01
Speaker 1: and Boho chic is up sixty percent in search volume,
14:05
Speaker 1: but so is Floral Designs, which is up seventy percent
14:08
Speaker 1: and Cottage Core, which is up fifty percent.
14:11
Speaker 2: Wow, I know interesting, I love it. I'd love that.
14:15
Speaker 3: Like a roughly lacy skirt with an oversized knitted jumper
14:20
Speaker 3: like that is so cute for order, like.
14:22
Speaker 1: A giant cream cable knit jumper.
14:27
Speaker 2: Potentially with a bell sleeve.
14:28
Speaker 1: Yes, with a fireplace, a crackling fireplace.
14:31
Speaker 2: Now we're talking.
14:32
Speaker 1: But to switch it up to something even more fun
14:34
Speaker 1: within the realm of fashion. My favorite trend of autumn,
14:39
Speaker 1: and it is man repella outfits.
14:42
Speaker 2: Tell me more, tell me more, tell me more.
14:45
Speaker 1: So this trend has evolved into something more fashion focus,
14:48
Speaker 1: and it's centered on outfits that decenter what men find
14:52
Speaker 1: traditionally in air quotes attractive. So these outfits usually feature
14:59
Speaker 1: bag clothes, masculine silhouettes, and excessive layering.
15:04
Speaker 2: What we wear already.
15:05
Speaker 1: I know, I know, And this is why I'm so
15:07
Speaker 1: excited to talk about this out because our time to
15:10
Speaker 1: shine is literally Style Analytics, which I will leave a
15:14
Speaker 1: link in the show notes to their Instagram page.
15:16
Speaker 2: Absolutely give them a follow.
15:17
Speaker 1: They also have a substack and ten out of ten
15:20
Speaker 1: I love Style Analytics and data, but make it fashion
15:22
Speaker 1: because it just feeds my brain. But anyway, style analyticsit
15:26
Speaker 1: a scrape of multiple Reddit threads to find the most
15:28
Speaker 1: common outfits or styles that men hate.
15:31
Speaker 2: And I'm so.
15:32
Speaker 1: Proud to own like ninety percent of everything that.
15:37
Speaker 2: Was on this list. Oh my god.
15:39
Speaker 1: I do also want to state for transparency, the eight
15:42
Speaker 1: hundred and six comments that she used to pull in
15:44
Speaker 1: this list were posted between twenty twenty and twenty twenty three,
15:47
Speaker 1: and she had trouble finding threads like this posted within
15:50
Speaker 1: the last two years, so she was like, maybe we
15:53
Speaker 1: have moved past this, We've.
15:55
Speaker 2: Evolved from some of these scenes exactly.
15:57
Speaker 1: So I bring to you the outfits that men hate.
16:03
Speaker 2: Let's do it.
16:04
Speaker 1: Number one was high waisted okay, cool every day same,
16:13
Speaker 1: too much makeup, tick, welp, baggy clothes TI tick crop tops.
16:21
Speaker 1: That's interesting, distressed jeans same, we fucking hate it when
16:26
Speaker 1: you wear that too.
16:26
Speaker 2: Yeah.
16:27
Speaker 1: Big sunglasses fuck. And in her video she said specifically
16:31
Speaker 1: the ones that like Paris Hilton wore in like the
16:34
Speaker 1: two thousands, or ones that make you look like a
16:36
Speaker 1: big love them, pointy toe, let me be witch, capris,
16:42
Speaker 1: rompers ugs, and my personal favorite thick eyebrows. Also, what
16:50
Speaker 1: featured things like mum jeans, long fake nails, biker shorts,
16:55
Speaker 1: and flip flops.
16:57
Speaker 2: What does that leave us with bikinis? I'm sure that's
17:01
Speaker 2: fucking somewhere on the list too.
17:03
Speaker 1: I just love that this is trending at the moment,
17:07
Speaker 1: and that we're moving away from wearing things simply for
17:10
Speaker 1: the sake of being attractive to men and decentering our
17:14
Speaker 1: value based on what men want and find attractive, and
17:20
Speaker 1: really moving towards wearing something simply for ourselves or simply
17:24
Speaker 1: because just we like it and we want to wear it.
17:26
Speaker 1: And I just I thought it was so fucking funny.
17:28
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's take that trend beyond autumn, baby, Yeah, that's
17:31
Speaker 3: all year round.
17:32
Speaker 2: I love that.
17:33
Speaker 1: Yeah.
17:33
Speaker 3: Also, I don't know if you've seen, but Rowie Seeing
17:37
Speaker 3: the Australian makeup content creator who is incredible, also has
17:42
Speaker 3: a bit of a series where she does man Repella
17:45
Speaker 3: makeup and it's always the most amazing, colorful, vibrant and
17:51
Speaker 3: dramatic makeup.
17:53
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's so interesting.
17:55
Speaker 2: Is that?
17:55
Speaker 1: Also when you look up man Repeller outfits on like TikTok,
17:59
Speaker 1: so many any of them is colorful and powerful and
18:03
Speaker 1: unique and creative, and I just find it very not funny,
18:10
Speaker 1: ha ha funny weird that the thing that is repelling
18:14
Speaker 1: is a woman being an individual and if a man
18:17
Speaker 1: is repelled by that, thank fucking god. It's like bugspray,
18:20
Speaker 1: but with fashion. Yes, I love that and looks better.
18:24
Speaker 1: Those are my That's my wrap up of the fashion
18:27
Speaker 1: trends for autumn or tumtum okay.
18:32
Speaker 3: Speaking of trends, I'm gonna move us onto beauty trends
18:36
Speaker 3: of autumn and surprise, surprise, a huge trend in the
18:41
Speaker 3: beauty space is cherry.
18:43
Speaker 2: So in the last.
18:44
Speaker 3: Year, of course, we've seen cherry red have a massive,
18:48
Speaker 3: massive influence on fashion interiors decor, and like you said,
18:54
Speaker 3: it's not going anywhere this autumn and winter. But we
18:57
Speaker 3: went to the house of Sephora a few weeks ago
19:02
Speaker 3: and that's where they share like all of their new
19:04
Speaker 3: launches and products that are coming up this year, and
19:07
Speaker 3: a massive trend that we saw was cherry ingredients and
19:11
Speaker 3: cherry inspired products.
19:13
Speaker 2: I was like, did y'all talk, like yeah?

Speaker 3: that the term cherry red vibe was up by three
19:25
Speaker 3: hundred and twenty five percent and dark cherry red was
19:28
Speaker 3: up two hundred and thirty five percent this year. So
19:31
Speaker 3: it's safe to say that cherry isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

19:37

Speaker 3: It's funny because I feel like we're like, yeah, cherries,
20:26
Speaker 3: you know works for spring and summer. But then also
20:30
Speaker 3: cherry red is very deep and works for autumn and
20:34
Speaker 3: winter too.
20:35
Speaker 1: Cherries fit more to the autumn vibe than summer summers,
20:39
Speaker 1: like give me a mango, I guess, like a cherry
20:41
Speaker 1: print for example, like our cherry print bikinis. That's very summer,
20:45
Speaker 1: very print though that's a universal, Yeah, that's a universe.

Speaker 3: Please we need her to bring the Mayhem Ball when

Speaker 3: it is eventually launched down.
21:25
Speaker 1: I can't wait for that ticket price to hurt my
21:27
Speaker 1: feelings and also say thank you absolutely Okay, moving into
21:33
Speaker 1: our next Hot Chick Autumn checklist item and for me
21:39
Speaker 1: it's falling back in love with long form content. I
21:43
Speaker 1: basically just stopped watching YouTube when I loved it. I
21:47
Speaker 1: used to love watching YouTube. And I was saying this
21:49
Speaker 1: to you the other day. We were doing your makeup
21:51
Speaker 1: and I was like, you know what, I want to
21:53
Speaker 1: start watching makeup tutorials again, and like skin tutorials and
21:57
Speaker 1: finding maybe some more like comfort creators or people that
22:01
Speaker 1: make me laugh, because I just feel like it's just
22:06
Speaker 1: consuming like TikTok and Instagram, which is fine, like there's
22:08
Speaker 1: a time and place for that, and I do like it,
22:11
Speaker 1: but I don't feel like I have that connection to
22:14
Speaker 1: creators as much with short form content that I just
22:18
Speaker 1: really want to enjoy long form content, and within that
22:22
Speaker 1: is watching more movies. Yes, that is something that I
22:26
Speaker 1: shared at the start of the year on Stories that
22:28
Speaker 1: I was like, I want to watch more movies. I
22:31
Speaker 1: feel like I've lost the movie magic in life, and
22:35
Speaker 1: it definitely is due to the fact that you know,
22:38
Speaker 1: most of the movies that we're getting now are a sequel,
22:40
Speaker 1: a remake pulled from some fucking AI generative ass But
22:44
Speaker 1: I'm like, where's the magic? And maybe the magic is
22:47
Speaker 1: just watching a bunch of two thousand rom coms every
22:49
Speaker 1: weekend in autumn. Maybe I need to write a list
22:52
Speaker 1: and do like a movie club.
22:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's so cute.
22:55
Speaker 1: That every week we watch like a certain two thousands
22:58
Speaker 1: of rom com and it's practical magic every day.
23:02
Speaker 3: I think the difference between consuming short form content and
23:05
Speaker 3: long form content for me is that consuming short form
23:09
Speaker 3: content doesn't feel as intentional, Whereas there are a few
23:13
Speaker 3: YouTube series that I still watch that you know, they
23:16
Speaker 3: drop every Wednesday night and I know exactly when it
23:20
Speaker 3: comes out, and on a Wednesday night, I'm like, great,
23:22
Speaker 3: I know, I'm going to the gym and I will
23:24
Speaker 3: go on the treadmill and watch my little YouTube show. Yeah,
23:27
Speaker 3: Or on a Saturday morning while I'm doing my skin care,
23:30
Speaker 3: I've got my little YouTube show to watch and it's
23:33
Speaker 3: something that I can look forward to every single week.
23:36
Speaker 3: And yeah, it is a bit more intentional, and you
23:39
Speaker 3: can relax, not just take it out.
23:41
Speaker 2: That's what it is. I don't feel guilty when I
23:43
Speaker 2: watch my YouTube.
23:44
Speaker 1: Spending time with yourself. Like you said, it's intentional. It's
23:47
Speaker 1: not a doom scroll. It's not low quality dopamine. You know,
23:51
Speaker 1: it's not that quick hit that once you don't like
23:53
Speaker 1: I got to keep scrolling, I got to keep tathing. Yeah,
23:55
Speaker 1: I would love for people to send me some of
23:58
Speaker 1: their favorite comfort creators because I don't feel like I
24:00
Speaker 1: have any. Yeah, I need some other than Florence. Given
24:05
Speaker 1: she's sorted, I've got her, but I need her to
24:07
Speaker 1: start making YouTube videos.
24:08
Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be amazing.
24:10
Speaker 1: But I'm like everything she has to say, I'm like
24:12
Speaker 1: more more, give me more legit.
24:16
Speaker 2: So please send me your comfort creators.
24:18
Speaker 1: And yeah, hot girls in autumn are watching long form content.
24:21
Speaker 3: I'm into it because that actually ties beautifully into my
24:26
Speaker 3: next checklist item, which is shows the movies to binge
24:31
Speaker 3: watch in autumn, because the cooler months is undeniably the
24:36
Speaker 3: best time to binge watch.
24:38
Speaker 2: Anything.
24:39
Speaker 3: Give me the movies. Shows the movies to binge watch
24:42
Speaker 3: this autumn. Gilmore Girls, One Tree Hill, When Harry met Sally, Practical, Magic,
24:49
Speaker 3: Dead Poets, Society, No though too, Sam, you gotta have
24:56
Speaker 3: something in there. Oh fine, I need an excuse to cry.
24:59
Speaker 2: You don't an excuse to cry.
25:01
Speaker 1: You look outside and see a leaf wall from a tree,
25:03
Speaker 1: and you're like, that's really beautiful, Like.
25:05
Speaker 2: The winds change.
25:06
Speaker 3: I just want everyone to get along Twilight, Yes, Mats,
25:12
Speaker 3: you've got mail.
25:13
Speaker 2: I love that one.
25:15
Speaker 3: The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, Little Women
25:18
Speaker 3: Charmed Knives Out And I haven't watched this one, but
25:22
Speaker 3: when I was scaring the internet for recommendations, only Murders
25:25
Speaker 3: in the Building came up a lot for this.
25:28
Speaker 1: Yeah. Do you know what, I'm really really happy that
25:30
Speaker 1: you didn't put on there because it is a winter
25:32
Speaker 1: movie and not an order movie.
25:35
Speaker 2: Is Harry Potter? Yeah, it's a different vibe. Yeah, Harry
25:38
Speaker 2: Potter is Winter.
25:39
Speaker 1: Yeah.
25:39
Speaker 2: Lord of the Rings is Autumn. Yeah, I agree.
25:42
Speaker 1: My next hot Chick Autumn checklist is to write yourself
25:48
Speaker 1: fulfilling prophecy.
25:52
Speaker 2: So this isn't going to.
25:54
Speaker 1: Be a new notion because it definitely ties into the
25:57
Speaker 1: whole live the life that you want, act as though
26:00
Speaker 1: your higher self would manifestation, give your brain evidence of
26:05
Speaker 1: your beliefs. Right, but it's fucking witchy and autumn is
26:11
Speaker 1: for witches. So your self fulfilling prophecy is basically what
26:16
Speaker 1: you want the vibes of this season to be. And
26:19
Speaker 1: I love this because I do think your mentality, your mood,
26:24
Speaker 1: and your attitude literally effect and drive the day you're
26:29
Speaker 1: gonna have the month you're gonna have, whether or not
26:32
Speaker 1: you're gonna get the fucking promotion you want, whether or
26:35
Speaker 1: not like that date's gonna go really well, or you're
26:38
Speaker 1: gonna have a lot of fun with your friends. What
26:40
Speaker 1: you believe is gonna happen is how you're gonna go
26:43
Speaker 1: into it. And so by creating self fulfilling prophecies that
26:47
Speaker 1: are positive, you're going to kind of enter this lucky
26:51
Speaker 1: girl energy, you know, the lucky girl syndrome, which like
26:55
Speaker 1: half of it's bullshit, let's be honest, but I think
26:58
Speaker 1: there is so much power and magic in sitting down
27:03
Speaker 1: and riding out what you want your self fulfilled prophecy
27:07
Speaker 1: to be. And it's the reason I say self fulfilled
27:09
Speaker 1: is because the only thing that's going to make that
27:11
Speaker 1: prophecy come to life is you. So if your self
27:15
Speaker 1: fulfilled prophecy is I want to have a gentle autumn
27:19
Speaker 1: where I really build a soft routine and celebrate my
27:23
Speaker 1: soft winds, that's what you're going to ride out and
27:26
Speaker 1: stick it somewhere. Put it, get like really cute paper
27:29
Speaker 1: and ride it out with like a pen that's really cute,
27:33
Speaker 1: and then frame it and have it just on one page.
27:35
Speaker 1: It doesn't need to be super long, doesn't need to
27:38
Speaker 1: be super intense, but have like this self fulfilling prophecy
27:41
Speaker 1: that you want to see for yourself within autumn, and
27:44
Speaker 1: then you can also do it for winter and spring
27:46
Speaker 1: and summer and as like a little practice that's like
27:49
Speaker 1: a little bit witchy because it's fucking fun, have a
27:51
Speaker 1: little candle burning, And that's on my checklist to do that.
27:55
Speaker 1: I would also love to know what's on your self
27:59
Speaker 1: fulfilling prophecy for autumn.
28:01
Speaker 2: Oh, this is a question for me of the chicks.
28:03
Speaker 3: Okay, I feel like my next tip kind of leans
28:06
Speaker 3: into that, so I can jump into that. Which is
28:09
Speaker 3: the Danish word who get? Have you heard of this before?
28:13
Speaker 2: No?
28:14
Speaker 3: Okay, so hohogeh is a Danish word that describes a cozy,
28:19
Speaker 3: contented mood evoked by comfort. So this is often a
28:24
Speaker 3: word used to describe decor and interior design.
28:28
Speaker 1: So I think, you know cozy interiors.
28:30
Speaker 3: Really beautiful soft blankets, soft lighting, handle incense, ambient videos
28:39
Speaker 3: on YouTube exactly with you and with your division. Yeah,
28:43
Speaker 3: but I think that my self fulfilled prophecy for autumn
28:47
Speaker 3: will be who get. I love that and that is
28:51
Speaker 3: to embrace the forced slowness.
28:53
Speaker 2: That comes with the call of months.
28:56
Speaker 3: I'm not saying completely shut off your social calendar. I
28:58
Speaker 3: do think it's really important to put yourself out there,
29:01
Speaker 3: but I guess being more intentional about those moments at
29:05
Speaker 3: home where you are forced to just slow down, like sit.
29:09
Speaker 2: Back and relax and who get and who get? Yeah,
29:13
Speaker 2: So I.
29:14
Speaker 3: Think I need to start by investing in a new
29:16
Speaker 3: set of flannelette pajamas, perhaps a new candle that can
29:22
Speaker 3: be my scent of the season.
29:24
Speaker 2: It's really about indulging.
29:26
Speaker 3: In those cozy moments that you can't have in any
29:29
Speaker 3: other season but autumn.
29:31
Speaker 1: And you have to be intentional about it. Yeah.
29:34
Speaker 3: So cooking more hearty meals, like let's get some soup,
29:38
Speaker 3: casserole dish. Yeah, we need some more soups, some more casseroles,
29:42
Speaker 3: some more veggie bakes in the rotation, slow cooker, slow cooker,
29:48
Speaker 3: investing in cozy pjs, slippies, a warm cup of tea
29:53
Speaker 3: every night, movie nights in Yeah, I think that everybody
29:57
Speaker 3: should embrace hoogi and the self fulfilling prophecy and their
30:01
Speaker 3: self fulfilling prophecy this autumn.
30:03
Speaker 1: Okay, I have two more. Okay, one of them is
30:05
Speaker 1: very quick. But the other day I was feeling a
30:08
Speaker 1: bit said and I bought a fucking cake care And
30:13
Speaker 1: there was no birthday, there was no occasion.
30:17
Speaker 2: I just said I want cake, and I bought a cake.
30:21
Speaker 1: And I've had cake for afternoon tea for the last week,
30:24
Speaker 1: maybe sometimes breakfast.
30:26
Speaker 2: Also potentially lunch.
30:28
Speaker 1: Buy yourself the damn cake and fucking eat it.
30:32
Speaker 2: And that is.
30:33
Speaker 1: Something that I want to do this autumn, and that
30:35
Speaker 1: is on my hot chick checklist, is to have a
30:38
Speaker 1: cake every week and get a little cake stand and
30:42
Speaker 1: have cake with my tea.
30:44
Speaker 2: And it doesn't have to be a birthday.
30:46
Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be a treat. Like, I don't
30:49
Speaker 1: know what it is. Maybe it's because my mum always
30:51
Speaker 1: used to bake cakes when we were little and we
30:53
Speaker 1: would have them for afternoon tea.
30:54
Speaker 2: And maybe it's just nostalgic thing in me.
30:56
Speaker 1: But I'm like, why are these reserved for birthdays when
30:59
Speaker 1: they're so young?
31:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not fair. Why can't we have cake all
31:02
Speaker 2: the time.
31:02
Speaker 1: We are adults with free will ye, buy the fucking cake.
31:05
Speaker 2: Buy the fucking cake.
31:06
Speaker 1: And then secondly, my last one is We're not waiting
31:12
Speaker 1: to winter to start building up our immune system. Let's
31:16
Speaker 1: start that shit now, because that shit's coming, bitch already.
31:22
Speaker 1: Everyone is fucking sick at the moment, and I'm like,
31:26
Speaker 1: you have the best immune system that I've ever met
31:28
Speaker 1: in anyone, and I hate you for it, But start
31:32
Speaker 1: working and building your immune system now.
31:35
Speaker 2: Do your own research.
31:36
Speaker 1: Talk to your doctor, Go get a blood test, see
31:39
Speaker 1: what you are deficient in, if anything, and work on
31:42
Speaker 1: that before we get to winter, and before that fucking
31:46
Speaker 1: nasty ass, dirty bitch of a flu is going around
31:51
Speaker 1: and you were bedridden because I had it one year
31:53
Speaker 1: and I'm telling you I literally saw time and smelled
31:57
Speaker 1: colors and not in a good weight.
31:59
Speaker 2: No, it was not fun. She's been changed ever since.
32:01
Speaker 1: I've literally been scarred. Like the first time I got
32:04
Speaker 1: sick after that, fluent cried because I was like it's back, yeah,
32:08
Speaker 1: And I was like, you can't get the same virus.
32:10
Speaker 2: Prison It's bad.
32:11
Speaker 1: That is what I want to leave everyone on to
32:15
Speaker 1: go and book in your blood tests because hot chicks
32:18
Speaker 1: in autumn build up their immune system.
32:21
Speaker 2: I love that.
32:22
Speaker 1: Okay, moving on to advice with the chicks classes in.
32:25
Speaker 3: Session backs in session if you know, you know, you know,
32:29
Speaker 3: you know, Hey, Gl's what would you do. I'm twenty
32:37
Speaker 3: three turning twenty four later this year and in my
32:39
Speaker 3: second year as a grad teacher. I want to go
32:42
Speaker 3: back to UNI. Teaching just isn't my vibe and I
32:45
Speaker 3: regret doing it in the first place. I got a
32:47
Speaker 3: perfect ATAR at school and feel like teaching just sucks
32:50
Speaker 3: the life and personality out of me. I feel like
32:53
Speaker 3: I'm wasting my potential and want to go start over
32:55
Speaker 3: fresh with a new career. I'm kind of scared though,
32:58
Speaker 3: as this man's having to relo kate to the city again,
33:01
Speaker 3: as I'm from the country and returned back to teach
33:04
Speaker 3: for the financial benefits, and to say, going back to UNI,
33:06
Speaker 3: renting in the city and finding time to work could
33:09
Speaker 3: be really financially difficult, and I don't know if being
33:12
Speaker 3: a broke UNI student would be worth it. Again, Do
33:15
Speaker 3: I resist my urge to try something new and try
33:17
Speaker 3: to build myself as a teacher despite my lack of
33:19
Speaker 3: satisfaction for financial gain or do I buy the bullet
33:23
Speaker 3: and suck it up for another four years for long
33:25
Speaker 3: term but delayed reward.
33:27
Speaker 2: Ps.
33:27
Speaker 3: I'm single and there's nothing holding me back from leaving
33:30
Speaker 3: my town after my contract is up.
33:32
Speaker 1: Okay, I feel like I have a little story that
33:34
Speaker 1: could probably help with this.
33:36
Speaker 2: And Saal and I have an entire family of teachers.
33:39
Speaker 1: I think there's like seventeen teachers in my family and
33:41
Speaker 1: there's like forty eight.
33:42
Speaker 2: In your There's a lot of teachers going around.
33:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot of teachers in our fans and
33:47
Speaker 1: friends and all that stuff. And I want to preface
33:49
Speaker 1: this by saying a lot of them absolutely love being
33:52
Speaker 1: teachers and are so fulfilled with being teachers. Yeah. However,
33:56
Speaker 1: my sister was a teacher, and she very much looks
34:00
Speaker 1: back fondly on that. But she got to a point
34:03
Speaker 1: that she was like, this is not filling my cup
34:05
Speaker 1: and she decided to quit and she went back to
34:09
Speaker 1: UNI and studied to be a vet. And this was
34:13
Speaker 1: such a hard decision for her to do. And I
34:16
Speaker 1: think everything that this chick was saying in terms of
34:19
Speaker 1: like she's gonna have to move, it's going to be
34:22
Speaker 1: very financially like it's going to be a financial burden.
34:25
Speaker 1: She's a little bit scared, like what if it doesn't
34:27
Speaker 1: work out? And I do think these are all things
34:29
Speaker 1: that you know, my sister was also faced with, but
34:33
Speaker 1: I have never seen anyone happier with a decision in
34:36
Speaker 1: their entire life. Like, she is so much more fulfilled
34:41
Speaker 1: in her life and in her career following her passion
34:44
Speaker 1: rather than staying in something that she was second guessing.
34:48
Speaker 1: And that is probably like that I feel like, is
34:53
Speaker 1: what I think of with this scenario that I'm like,
34:56
Speaker 1: I watched my sister leave teaching to go follow a
34:59
Speaker 1: passion and as hard as it was, like there was
35:01
Speaker 1: ups and there was downs, absolutely, but she is still
35:06
Speaker 1: really really happy that she kind of went and put
35:09
Speaker 1: in all those hard yards and it's years, Like starting
35:12
Speaker 1: to be a vet is like I'm pretty sure forty
35:14
Speaker 1: eight years.
35:15
Speaker 2: Until you get to be bet.
35:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, scientistically maybe one hundred and five, yeah like that,
35:19
Speaker 1: but yeah, to like basically like once you're at retiring age.
35:26
Speaker 2: She gets to be a bet.
35:27
Speaker 1: It takes so many years and so much work and
35:30
Speaker 1: so much back and forth, and you know, you've got
35:32
Speaker 1: to do masters and you've got to do thesises and
35:35
Speaker 1: there is and it's really really hard. But I think
35:38
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, if something to your
35:40
Speaker 1: dream and that's what you want to do. The hard
35:41
Speaker 1: work is always hard, but it's not too hard, and
35:46
Speaker 1: anything worth achieving is never easy.
35:50
Speaker 2: That's true.
35:52
Speaker 3: And you'll also be working for the next fifty odd
35:57
Speaker 3: years of your life. Four years is a long time
36:00
Speaker 3: and it does take a lot of effort and dedication
36:03
Speaker 3: to get through that. But in the grand scheme of
36:05
Speaker 3: things of your career, it is.
36:08
Speaker 2: Not very long.
36:09
Speaker 3: And teaching, like we said, it can be very fulfilling.
36:13
Speaker 3: We know lots of people who absolutely love their jobs
36:16
Speaker 3: as teachers, and even though they do, yes, they still
36:19
Speaker 3: have hard days.
36:20
Speaker 2: It still comes with its challenges.
36:22
Speaker 3: But I just don't know if you can force yourself
36:25
Speaker 3: to love something if the passion isn't especially teaching.
36:30
Speaker 1: Teaching is a hard as buck job, yet if you're
36:33
Speaker 1: not passionate about it, it's really really, really hard.
36:36
Speaker 3: Yeah, you need that passion to propel you through those
36:38
Speaker 3: challenging times, and if you don't have that, I'm not
36:41
Speaker 3: sure if you'll be able to build it up.
36:44
Speaker 2: You could also always go back to teaching, true, so
36:48
Speaker 2: that's always there.
36:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, don't see this as like you have to cut
36:52
Speaker 3: ties and end it all. It's all been a waste.
36:54
Speaker 3: It definitely hasn't. I would say go for it, agreed.
36:58
Speaker 1: I think before you do it, definitely like map out
37:00
Speaker 1: your financials and like see how that's gonna work, so
37:04
Speaker 1: that way you kind of have an idea. It's not
37:06
Speaker 1: like you're going in blind in terms of like what
37:09
Speaker 1: you can afford, what you can't afford, how much things
37:10
Speaker 1: are gonna cost. Definitely do that because especially with the
37:13
Speaker 1: cost of living crisis and the economic climate, you want
37:16
Speaker 1: to make sure that that's not gonna be another added stress.
37:19
Speaker 2: Totally on top of it.
37:20
Speaker 1: But I feel like we always have the predicament of
37:24
Speaker 1: like you're literally twenty four, You've got the whole rest
37:28
Speaker 1: of your life. Fucking go for it. Thank you so
