  Speaker 2: might be a little bit of a learning for me.

  Speaker 2: I'm locked in. Yeah, I'm so easily influenced to be honest,
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: to be on us.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that the majority of people are like
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: and fashion is so fun and trends are constantly coming
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: and going, and as well with the Internet, it's like
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: the ultimate exposure to so many different influences.
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: If I was like filthy rich and could have a
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: whole room that was a wardrobe like clueless Hannah Montana
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: Kardashian thing, I'd be unstoppable.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: I want an iPad and a moving wardrobe. And is
• 1:11

• 1:13
  Speaker 2: how I say my like, I know I've made it
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: moment will be if And by that I mean like
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: my rich old lady vibe will be that I can
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: go and get weekly blow dries. Yeah, I'm gonna put
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: like mechanical wardrobe. Second, oh my god, yeah, the dream
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: and get me my chocolate woolen blezer. And then it's
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: got like a Javis thing being like, good morning, m'amy,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: let me get that for you don't know why she's
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: cock me didn't think that's where we're gonna go. But
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: as I like it, I'm ficturing like the wardrobe vibe,
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: im beautying the beast. Yeah.
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but she was like, oh, let's get dressed.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: And like, okay, like he.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: Dress me.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Yes, okay, So let's jump straight into it and let's
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: talk the magic of a good outfit.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: It is truly fantastical.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: It is like casting a spell. Spell Truly, a good
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: outfit can upgrade multiple things in your life, socially, personally, professionally, romantically.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: Like a good outfit, I think is the life hack
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: of the century. And a good outfit is in your
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: head and your perspective, not anyone else's.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, a good outfit is in the eye of the beholder.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: And it's you in the mirror, beholding yourself precisely. You know. So,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: studies have actually shown that a good outfit can improve
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: your mood and even increase performance in a professional setting.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Ups fusinglutely, if I think I look good, the door
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: has never seen those hinges. Okay, it's kicked off and
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: I'm living. I am going to put on the best
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: song in my headphones and I'm going.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: To yeah, honestly, like truly.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: One instance of this was when the impact of wearing
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: a lab coat was studied. This is very interesting. So
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: there was a study about wearing a lab coat and
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: whether or not it affected your mood and having a
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: good outfit. So in the experiment, a person wearing a
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: lab coat showed increased selective attention when given a scientific
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: task to carry out compared to not wearing the lab.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: Coat at all.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: So psychologically, wearing an outfit can make you lock in
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: to whatever you're doing, whether it's life, whether it's a date,
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: whether it's going and having FuMB on a hike, whether
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: it's being a scientist. It locks you into the task
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: that you're doing and you embrace it fully. And I
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: use this tome a little looser now than five years ago,
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: but it gives main character energy.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it gives you that physical signal being like all right,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: we're on, because I definitely have felt that, Like, you know,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: when we come into to know what it is, it's
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: that sounded old on old on follow that tune.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's very bad.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because you know, occasionally we like to come into
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: the office in our comfies, you know, on a day
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: when it's super.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: But do I ever walk in going like, seize the day, car,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: pay DM the vibes are high, let's go out for
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: a bed. No, No, but that's okay. Life is light
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: and darkness and shade and shit exactly.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: But I do think it definitely has an impact on
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: your outlook and your mood and your perspective and therefore
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: the rest of the day.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know when I've cooked too close to the hunt,
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: I know I'm going to walk into it and you
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: guys are gonna be like outfit. I'm like, yeah, I know,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: because I love it too. You're bracing for the crime,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: for the compliment.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're like about to open the door and you're
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: like three two one, yeah, silent.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: We have we have removing celebrity moving literally stage left action.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: But this cyclical logic, you can actually manifest greater confidence
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: and attention, because if you're already feeling good about yourself,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: you're more likely to reflect that in what you're wearing.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: And you're much much more likely to feel good about
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: yourself when you know you're rocking a great fit, and
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: I think, as well, there's a lot of magic in
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: that outfit. Not needing to be new. Something that I
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: would really like rely on a lot previously, was needing
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: to buy an outfit for it to be a good outfit.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: I would say that's absolutely not the case anymore. Sometimes
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit. There's definitely things that
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: I bought and been like, lock up, lock up your daughters,
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: you know Mummy's coming. And there are times when I
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: bought something I'm like, I actually feel worse. Thank you,
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: Thank you for that.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: No greater betrayal than when an outfit doesn't come together
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: as you picture it.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: You had it in your head and you're like m mmmm,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: and then you put it on. Maybe you're in your liver,
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: your phase, maybe not, and you put it on, You're like,
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: you have betrayed me, honestly, And the crash out that
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: follows it because then you gotta go and you got
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: to dig, and then you go through your entire wardrobe,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: the inside becomes the outside of your wardrobe t bedroom,
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: and then you're just standing there in a pile of
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: clothes that of that woman on Hoarders in a corner,
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: crying and laughing at the same time, and then going.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: I'm not going, Yeah, I'm not going, I'm not going.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: And then you end up pulling out the same outfit
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: that you wore the other week, that you just really
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: actually liked and that you actually feel good in, and
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: you didn't need to spend money, and you probably are
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: going to forget to return it anyway, I am speaking
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: from experience. Yeah, anyway, what happened? You just bleged out?
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: I was transported back there.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: Yes, But that's the thing is, I would always think
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: that I had to buy a new outfit in order
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: to have to chase that magic spell of a good outfit.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: The magical spell of a good outfit does not come
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: from the outfit being new. It comes from finding out
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: what you enjoy, and that is through embracing your personal style,
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: not by shopping or trying to be trendy.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: That is like the key.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: So what makes a good outfit?
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: I wish I could give you a formula of like
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: this shirt plus his pants and these boots equals ten
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: out of ten. Your appearance is just as much about
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: your presence and your confidence as it is about the
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: actual items. So you could be wearing some of the
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: coolest pieces combined together, but if you don't like them,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: and you're only wearing them because you saw them on
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Pinterest or they're trending, but you don't feel comfortable and
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: you don't actually genuinely think they're cool, that shows through.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: I think also trendy items at the moment, because I
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: was having a little lucky on the weekend and I
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: couldn't help but think a lot of the things that
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: are trendy at the moment are really hard to style.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they're very.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Like individual pieces that doesn't necessarily work like universally a robe,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: and they're very like of a certain era and of
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: a certain time, which might be your vibe.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: No, I do think that's we had this conversation years ago,
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: and it's when there's like a statement piece that becomes
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: the trending piece, it becomes too much of a capsule
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: in time. And my example of this is throwback was
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: the House of Sonny cardigans. Do you remember the House
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: of Sonny graphic knit cardigans were everywhere gorgeous. Nothing against them,
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: but they were such a representation of time that once
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: that trend was over, which we know these things are
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: a cycle that moves incredibly quickly. Now, is that you
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: would not be seen like so many people stopped wearing
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: them because it was then.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: Old twenty lockdown. Yeah, that's what though.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Kendall Jenner wore a House of Sunny dress and then
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: the knits and all of that, and you it's such
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: a distinct, unique and statement piece that to wear it
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: is such like a bang.
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: That was that year.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: Blah blah blah blah.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: But did you see I know you saw this because
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: I sent it to you. Yeah, the fabric belt from
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: soupe Prey is back on Princess Polly. Surely supe Pray's
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: got to have so pray, come get your seas, like,
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: don't let these young whipper snappers be doing that to you. Honestly,
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: if I need to pray now that the material belts
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: are back in quotes, I need a fluo green video
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: killed the radio Star graphic.
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: Shirt on a baby team.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: I would wear that shit.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, remember they had like the singlet dresses with like
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: the huge armhole, and then you would have like an
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: exposed bra. You could have the video star one and
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: I'll have the like dirty Dirty bass.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: Or whatever one.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe maybe Galaxy Galaxy times. We're gonna get the
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: We're gonna get like the wet pleather legging soon.
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: So that's the thing, Like trends do come and go,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: and I think that's okay if you see yourself in
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: a trend and you genuinely like it.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: But the other thing was that's probably a time capsule.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: More is like maybe a little bit gentler, but like
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: the cowboy boots. Cowboy boots were definitely more of a
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: trending boot I would say three years ago, and they
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: were definitely like, you know, you would get them pink
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: and green and blue and all these different colors, and
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: then now it's more like a biker boot. But I
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: loved the cowboy boot trend that I still wear mine.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: That it's like you can see yourself in trends.
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. But I think that's the thing.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: It's understanding what your style is and how these trending
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: items can fit into your existing aesthetic and your style
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: and what you genuinely like, so that you will wear
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: them beyond the trend and not feel like you're not
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: stylish or you're not being true to yourself, or like
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: it was a waste of money, because that's the worst
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: thing when you're doing a clear out of your wardrobe
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: and you see these pieces that you were like, I
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: feel like that's what I've done in the past.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: I've been like rebrand, Yeah, I want to be I
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: want to be and it would be like you want
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: to be this character that's like I want to look
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: like I'm in London in a shop and really quirky, and.
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: But that is so like of the internet. Now though,
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: what's the Mafia girl?
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, mobile wife really popular esthetic? Can we actually do
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: that Mafia mmmy? Just just because I think everyone will
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: look really hot and I just get to watch exactly,
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, Mafia Mummy wife.
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: That's look.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: I am an old man, but it should have been
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Mafia Mummy.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: He should have been.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: But I think, like, do you have pieces in your
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: wardrobe or even when you're shopping with a friend and
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: they pull something out and they're like, that's so you.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: I think that's what you want to strive for. And
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: you know what those pieces and silhouettes and colors and
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: materials or brands are, and that can be kind of
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: your little barrier point. And I think it's okay to
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: experiment and have fun with fashion, but it's like, how
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: can you do that? Could you maybe borrow it from
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: a friend, or could you experiment with like an accessory
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: that you get from an op shop or something like that, but.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: You know kind of what your.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: Uniform, your personal style uniform. And like I recently bought
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: a purse in when I was over in Copenhagen, and
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: it was like this vintage person It was pretty penny,
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: but when I show people, the first thing everyone said
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: when I showed them was, oh my god, it's so you.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: And I think that's like the highest of highest compliments
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: when it comes to style and clothes and being able
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: to have like your personal character's uniform. And like, I
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: can definitely now say that there's my go tos. And
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: it doesn't mean I don't play your experiment around with
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: different things, but I can definitely there sit here and say,
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: like I know if I want to cast the spell,
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: I know the elements that I'm pulling on to do.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: So yeah, and I think that's what is so because
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: in those moments when you do wake up and you're
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: having a bit of a shit day, or you're going
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: into work and you've got an important meeting, or you're
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: going on a date, or you're going to a party,
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: you know what silhouettes and pieces you can wear to
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: feel confident and feel like your best self, because it
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: does have an impact on more than just at being
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: an outfit.
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's own superpower in a way exactly.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: And I do whenever there's been maybe something that I'm
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: nervous for or maybe I felt a bit anxious about,
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: whether it's a job interview or doing something where I've
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: maybe felt a little bit out of my depth, putting
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: on a fuck off strong outfit has been that thing
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: to be like, no, bitch, I can do this, Like
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: I've got this and I love it. So if you're
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: wanting to embody stylish and not trendy, it starts with
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: understanding you know the difference between style and trend And again,
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: neither of these are bad words, Like to be trendy
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: is not necessarily saying, you know, if you are wearing
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: a lot of things that are trending at the moment.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: We're not being like booh y, you know.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Get you She Yeah, that's not what we're saying, not
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: at all.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: I do think both of these things have a very
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: strong and important place when we're talking about fashion. And
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: I'm also not sitting here as like someone I would
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: categorize as a fashion girlie. I'm just someone who likes
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: the shoppies, you know. So our word is also not
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Bible but style when you look up, its definition relates
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: to your own self expression. It's timeless and uniquely your own,
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: while still having awareness of what's in fashion right now,
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: whereas being trendy, on the other hand, is following what's current,
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: popular and potentially at the height of its reciprocation within fashion.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: So this can sometimes come at a cost to your
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: own personal taste and expression when you don't know when
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: to distinguish whether you like something or if it's just
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: a trend. And girl, I still have that every day
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: every day.
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: And constant bay.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like sometimes I'm like, I don't know if I
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: like that or if it's just a trend. Because there
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: is exposure therapy when you start seeing things everywhere and
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: you start seeing it on your Pinterest and on social
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: media or even just walking down the street. You can
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: be a little bit like, hmmm, do I like it?
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: And it is really tricky to kind of know the difference.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: So when it comes to trends, there are actually two types.
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: There's natural and manufactured. So natural trends are born organically
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: and often slow over time, from a genuine desire to
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: refresh what you're wearing, doing, or talking about.
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: It can start with.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: Everyday people or online communities, which then influence the rest
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: of the world, or it can trickle down from like
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: runways and the public eye to us. Manufactured trends, on
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: the other hand, happen when a new thing is pushed
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: quite suddenly, and this tends to be by brands or
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: forecasting agencies. I feel like the strongest example of this
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: would have been the maxidnim skirt. Oh yeah, overnight, it
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: just seemed like maxidnim skirts were everywhere, And I think
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: it was this natural development from you know, the two
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: thousands and having the two thousands back. But I don't
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: think we actually saw this trend very much in pop culture.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: It like, I don't think we naturally saw this from
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: runway to celebrity to store. It really seemed like overnight,
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: bang get to denim Maxi's yeah, and like used to
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: have yours, and you still wear yours, you know. But
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: I don't think there's a many stores right now that
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: would be stocking yet, nor do I think there's too
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: many people even wearing theirs anymore. And so I think
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: that's a good example because you liked it and really
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: liked it and still wear that trend because it is.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: Like very nineties two thousands, but could even have like
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: a seventies boho vibe, which is very much in like
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: the aesthetics that I always like anyway.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's just these trends that sometimes I think,
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: we go, what when did that come back? And other
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: example bandage dresses, Oh my god, that's back right, and
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: it's kind of like wait, what that felt really quick?
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: So sometimes if you do have that feeling, it's not
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: just in your head like it has been. Brands and
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: you know, forecasting agencies want to push different things because
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: if the trends only stayed the same, then you don't
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: need to buy anything new. Yeah, and then how's anyone?
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: How are they all going to make money?
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's why.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: And we follow a lot of accounts like this from
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: through our work. But that's why I do like following
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: accounts like data but make it fashion, or even looking
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: at the Pinterest predicts report at the end of every year,
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: or there's that one content creator and I can't remember
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: a name, so we can put a link in the
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: show notes. But she analyzes micro trends that have already
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: ended up in landfill because they share the data and
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: the search terms for particular items. And I feel like
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: even seeing that can help you be like, oh wait,
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: like there is a reason why I'm seeing this everywhere,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: or why all of a sudden have an urge to
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: buy blue eyeshadow.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I will say this until I am blue
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: in the face, because it quite literally changed the way
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: I think about shopping. But if you are unsure about
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: whether or not you want to buy a trend a
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: trending fashion item, ask yourself, if no one was going
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: to see me in this, would I still buy it?
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: And it made me realize how many things I've bought
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: in my life purely because someone was going to see
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: me in it, and not because I actually genuinely liked it.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: And that makes me really sad, because that's, you know,
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: not necessarily good for my confidence, nor the planet, nor
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: my bank account. So understanding that lesson is like was
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: such a game change. And I was like, I felt
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: like in the cartoons when they like have one of
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: those coaleidoscope realizations and they're like oh wow, yeah, and
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: it really does help because I go, if no one's
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: going to see me, am I just trying to invent
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: a character? Again? Yeah? Do I just need to dovem
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: in here? Do I just need to go do ten
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: star jumps and be like okay man, that's sorry.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so true.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: And what I love about fashion and style as well
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: is that so many of the ways that you can
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: embrace your own style or play around with sole doesn't
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: actually involve spending money or buying anything new.
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: It can be.
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: About styling, styling and com buying different pieces.
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: So that the Internet is full of.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: Different strategies and tactics on how to do this, But
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: one of them is sandwich dressing sounds delicious, So essentially
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: you think of your entire outfit like a sandwich. So
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: there's the top and bottom elements, which are the bread,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: and then you have the middle part, which is your
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: sandwich filling. So the bread should look alike in some way,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: just like they would a sandwich. Maybe they're the same color,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: maybe they're a similar material or silhouette. And then the filling,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: so the middle piece of your outfit can create some
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: sort of contrast between that top and bottom. Also using
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: the third piece rule, so you can break down all
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: of your best outfits into three main parts. Basic necessities
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: like your pants and a top qualify as the first
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: and second element, So the third element is there to
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: juzz things up and I guess make it feel a
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: little bit more different and interesting and unique. So if
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: you're wearing blue jeans and a white T shirt, maybe
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: you would have a scarf tied around your neck, or
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: a fun pair of earrings, or a cute cap or
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: a fun pair of boots and thinking about it like that.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I do like that. I do also think we're
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: seeing more coverage and inspiration on color combos and mixing
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: up colors that you wouldn't typically pair together. And that's
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: a great way to style and experiment with things that
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: you already have in your wardrobe that feels like a
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: new outfit because you've never worn those items together. But yeah,
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: I really like all of those what's your way to
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: spice up an outfit if it feels a bit flat.
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: Definitely accessories.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, love a good accessory, And I think my mum
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: has always been a big fan of accessories as well,
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: So I definitely think like the more the better, Like
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: I love a handful of rings and big earrings and
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: stacking necklaces. I just think that if you're wearing like
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: an all black outfit, but you have a lot of
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: fun jewelry and accessories on, like it just instantly makes
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: it feel unique and fun.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I want to wrap this episode actually with a
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: little piece of homework, and it's that when you put
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: an outfit on, I want everyone to write down they're
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: five fuck me outfits that when they put it on,
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: they're like, fuck me, yeah, nailed it, And that you
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: need to keep documenting that because half the time you
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: feel like you have nothing to wear because you don't
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: remember what you have in your wardrobe. You know, there's
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: so many studies that show that we forget majority of
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: the things that we own, and so like, how many
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: times do you go rummaging through your wardrobe and you go,
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: oh my god, I forgot I had that. So documenting
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: your wardrobe and your outfits is how you embrace stylish
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: not trendy, and how you can go all right that
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: we're going out. What are we got?
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, create a folder on your phone exactly, you're just
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: the wearing app.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 23:50
  Speaker 5: Whatever.
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: So when you like an outfit, take a photo of it,
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: and then you can actually pull yourself out of the
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: fit and paste it into your notes up and then
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: you've got a little directory of all your favorite outfits
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: for free.
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: It's the closest thing we'll get to share.
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: It's the closest thing we'll get to the share and
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: Hannah Montana wardrobe and for now.
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: I'll take it absolutely well.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: That is a wrap for today's episode of Two Broke Chicks.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: Love you, miss you, kissed you bye. We'll see you
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: back for episode four.
