• 0:24
  Speaker 2: with the Hot Chick Winter Jacklist.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: My favorite time of year. I was back cell. Honestly,
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: you've ascended. I do the reverse hibernation.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, you get seasonal depression reverse yeah yeah,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: yeah yeah.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: We do this episode every season, the Hot Chick Checklist,
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: because you chickies love it and we love it as well.
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: I think I always love going into a season and
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: being like, how can we refresh we glove, how can
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: we take advantage of the things that happen in this
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: season that like you don't get to enjoy any other
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: time of year, because why the fuck not?
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: I know, And I really like looking at the year
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: in pockets, like three month pockets. I think it's really
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: nice way to break it down and also have fun
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: throughout your year, and like, not every hobby needs to
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: be long term, Like it's just a nice way to
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: kind of cut it up.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, cedit it.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: But before we get into the episode, sal what is
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: your obsession?
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: My obsession of the week is the new David Attenborough
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: documentary Ocean, which just came out. I saw it at
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: the movies recently, but surely it will be out soon
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: available to stream, and I think this is an absolute
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: must watch for everyone. I'm a huge fan of David Attenborough.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: Basically anything that he puts out I'll watch.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Who isn't.
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: Honestly, as you may have guessed from the title of
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: the documentary, it is all about the ocean and the
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: importance of the ocean on our entire ecosystem, and this
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: documentary delves into so much that I definitely can't put
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: it all into words into one single recommendation. But I
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: think that from this documentary, you know, I learned a lot.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: It is very confronting in some ways, like I learned
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: that apparently all of the world's reefs will be dead
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: in the next thirty years if we don't do something
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: about it now. But I did also learn that there
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: have been some places on the Earth where people have
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: put in like no touch and no fishing zones, and
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: the reefs have been able to regenerate themselves and that
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: not all hope is lost, and that there is going
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: to be a conference with the UN within a couple
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: of weeks where they're basically inviting all of the world
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: leaders involved in the UN to sign something to protect
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: thirty percent of our oceans. And if this goes through,
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: like this could have a huge impact on basically like
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: the future of the human race, because the thing is that,
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: like the earth will continue whether or not the human
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: racist there to say it, Like, you know, these things
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: do have a big impact. And I do think that
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: watching a documentary like this can it can be scary,
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: but it does give you a lot of hope. And
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: I do also think, like with the recent election and everything,
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: like it's just so important to you know, know that
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: your values are being acted out by the people who
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: are in charge and who have power, and yeah, just
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: know what's going on. So I definitely recommend watching it.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Pack the tissues.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Oh Okay, My obsession of the week, which I feel
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: kind of ties into our Hot Chick Winter checklist, is
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: the films you didn't realize were modern retellings of classic literature.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: And I think all of these movies are potentially a
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: great little bucket list list for your movies for Winter
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: movie Night.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so Clueless is.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: The modern retelling of Emma by Jane Austen. Ten Things
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: I Hate About You is the modern retelling of Taming
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: of the Shrew by William Shakespeare.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: And also just a ten out of ten movie.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: That way we studied that in year ten was the best.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Treasure Planet is a retelling of Treasure Island, A bit
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: on the nose, so good though, Yeah, Treasure Planet is
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: so underrated. Bridget Jones's Diary and its novel are a
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: loose modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Oliver and Company, like the animated movie is a modern
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: retelling of Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: Cute and yeah, I just I was like, oh, I love.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: All these movies.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: That's so cute, and it's kind of nice because sometimes
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: I know you will hate me for saying this.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: The classics are classics, but you're like, Honey's a little
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: bit more juice.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I like that, like a retelling of a
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: story but in a way that you could watch it
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: and you would have no idea. Yeah, like I'm done
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: with the reboots, but yeah, retelling of a tale with
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: an important message I'm into.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: My other obsession of the week is the new rental
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: laws that have just come into place to help protect
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: renters from no cause evictions and it also is really
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: going to help those who want to get pets. So
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: I'm going to read it direct from the Daily Ols
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: because I feel like they always put in a very
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: nice condensed version. So a ban on no fault evictions
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: is now an effect in New South Wales. It comes
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: several months after the State of Parliament passed a law
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: banning the practice which allowed landlords to end a lease
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: without giving their tenant a reason. So under this legislation,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: notice periods for evictions will also be extended and tenants
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: will have a formal process to apply to keep a
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: pet not get a pet, which I think is a
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: very key term there. So no grounds or no fault
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: evictions mean landlords can end a lease without providing a reason,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: but from today New South Wales landlords will have to
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: disclose a reason for ending the lease. This could include
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: plans to sell, renovate or movie into the property, or
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: if a tenant has damaged a property or not paid rent. Additionally,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: landlords will only be able to deny requests to keep
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: a pet at a property for specific reasons such as
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: it being impossible to keep a pet humanly really good
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: seeing this come into act because rent is just don't
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: have enough protection and we've spoken about it a lot
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: on the podcast. The fact that we I mean, it's
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: good to see movements, but the fact that we still don't.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Have a cap on the percentage.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: Of increase the landlords can increase rent every year is
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: still a bit wild, And I'm like, can we do
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: that one next please?
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Can we put that on the to do list?
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: The next cab off the rank please?
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: But in the essence of being positive, this is really
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: really good to see because it is one of the
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: major setbacks that young people have is a lack of
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: power in their ability to rent and what they can
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: do as a renter.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: So yeah, that is my obsession because I was like, yeah,
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: everyone go get a cat, Go get a cat, little
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: of it, love it.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: Let's get into the checklist maybe, okay, South.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: We always start this episode with our favorite topic, fashion trends.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: Fashion trends, so we're going to get into the hot
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: chick winter fashion trends.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: But as always a little disclaimer before we talk about
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: trends is that these are just fun. They're a great
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: way to experiment and see what works with your evergreen style.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: If you don't like a trend, don't feel pressure to
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: take part in it. If you do like a trend,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: have fun, play around and see if it fits your
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: evergreen style. And there's so many things that it's just
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: fun to experiment with and that I've found through trends
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: that I'm like, wait, say I love this, yeah exactly.
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: And I think a lot of the trends that we
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: have picked as well to share and highlight today are
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: things that you'll be able to shop from within your
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: own wardrobe or buy vintage and secondhand, which are always
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: our favorites as well. So Number one faux fur.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, so chicks. We went to Australian Fashion Week.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Faufur was, by BAH the most common answer from creators
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: and attendees a fashion week, specifically colorful f yeah.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Which I think is really fun. And we did see
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: a little bit of this last year with the whole
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: mob wife aesthetic that came through, but I feel like
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: the colored fur takes it more to a whimsical, glam
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: rock fun place.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: I personally lean more with jackets not too loud. I
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: think style and silhouette lean more into something unique there
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: rather than color. But also color is what you make it.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Like literally, fluror green could be a neutral color to
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: some people, you know what I mean. But I think
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: with faux fur, if you wanted to play around with
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: it as much.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: As colorful fur is.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I personally lean more towards the neutrals or naturals
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: infau fur because I find those easier to style, and
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: it would be more of an evergreen style to have
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: in your wardrobe. Like I have a brown faux fur
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: jacket that I got from a Vinnie's that comes out
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: every season. Whereas I wonder, if you lean too far
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: into color and that's not your staple, how often are
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: you going to wear that, like every winter?
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Just to ponder, just to be the devil's advocate, Yeah.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: What do you think?
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: Are you a color fur or are you a neutral fur?
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: I think I am a neutral But color fur for
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: me is like an orange, yeah, which again is more
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: of an it is a natural color, but it still
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: adds like a pop of color. If I'm wearing an
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: all black outfit, for example.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: What I really like about this trend and the way
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: it's being styled this winter is it's becoming more casual.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: So traditionally, I feel like we've seen fur styled very
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: like glam, very like he mini dress, big fucking fur,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Whereas now we're getting this element that's like fur with
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: baggy jeans, a sneaker in a baseball cap. And I'm
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: living for it because do you know what that means?
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Means cost paer wear is low, Yeah, exactly ten in
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: best in potentially a higher price point, good quality faux fur,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: and wear it every day. It can become an everyday
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: jacket and you can style it casually. You can dress
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: it with your little slutty little miniskirt, your slutty little
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: stockings with the same at the back because you're a
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: little slutty girl and your high heels and I'm horney
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: that's a fit.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: And speaking of slutty little stockings and miniskirts, that's another
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: trend that we've been seeing so layering micro shorts and
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: micro minis with stockings, which I also love because you
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: can play with the silhouette of your outfit with those things.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: And then also you can wear something that you may
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: have bought during spring or summer and layer it with
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: a pair of stockings and get that cost per wear
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: and use throughout the season. Another modernization of this trend
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: that I've been seeing those so ow is the peekaboo
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: stockings or the peekaboo sock.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: And basically, when you're wearing a knee high boot.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: It's like this little peekaboo of a three quarter length
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: stocking sock or socks, and they kind of sit.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: High up and they just come a little bit above
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: the shoe.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: And I think it looks so cute, so amazing, and
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: it's gonna keep your leg very warm.
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's also functional.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: It's functional, which we love a functional fashion trend.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: I also have been loving all of the cozy accessories
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: that we've been seeing, chunky scarvesh hats, also those knitted
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: like snoods or cow like little beanies and you kind
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: of like tie them up under your neck.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: I think that's the two thousands, Hey, Like that's the
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: two thousand coming back. Like the fluffy hats, those scarves,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: especially the thin scarves we've been seeing those.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: I know that's on your wish list, It is on
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: my wish list. Love those.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: It takes me back to my childhood. But again functional,
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: and I think again, like if you're wearing an all
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: black outfit and then you have like a cute fairy
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: hat on or a little knitted snood, like how fucking cute?
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: Just adds a little point of interest. Also, men's wear,
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: we've been saying a lot this winter suit shirts, blazers,
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: they're not going anywhere, and a tailor. Yes, this I love.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: I love because I've always leaned a little bit more
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: masculine in the way that I dress. I think when
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: I like kind of leant into my sexuality a bit more,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: I definitely started dressing a little bit more unisex and masculine.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Women look so hot in suits. I need every everyone,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: I need everyone to wear suits in winter with an
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: ex tie the hottest outfit a woman can wear. And
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: I think it's because I'm like, it's like the too
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: combined of like it's masculine and it's sermonin and it's
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: my bisexual dream.
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the bisexual panic.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: I love that men's wear trend and the suiting and
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: the tailoring trend because it's all separates that again, you
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: can mix a match with other things, and you're not
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: having to go out and buy a completely different outfit
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: that you can only wear together to achieve the loop. Like, yes,
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: you can wear the matching blazer and tailored pants with
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: the tie, or you can mix and match those pieces,
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: which again cost effective. Grab your dad's tie, You're done,
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: good to go.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Another winter trend that I've been seeing is not necessarily
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: a specific item, but there is a massive rise and
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: focus on fiber composition education and garments that are made
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: with good quality fiber.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Five years ago, I don't think.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: Anyone maybe a bit more five to ten years ago, right,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: no one was picking up an item going what's.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: This made of?
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Maybe somewhere I don't mean to speak in generalizations, if
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: it was you collapse for you for head kiss, right,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: But now we are so much more educated within fiber composition.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: That when we're picking something up, we're checking, We're like,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: what is this made of? Is it cotton? Is it wool?
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Am I paying four hundred dollars for a polyester blazer
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: with ten wool?
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: And what does that look like?
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: And I think this trend and this education around fabric
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: and fiber composition of garments and clothes and sustainability is
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: just going to grow more and more and more, and
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: the quality of our shopping is going to increase, and
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: the quantity of our shopping is going to decrease because
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: we realize how much is just shit and that isn't
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: gonna last. Like, I was looking on an affordable site
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: this morning and there was this really nice knit jumper
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: and it was like an off the shoulder nit jump in.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: It was a bit of a dupe of a more
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: expensive one, right, And I was looking at it and I.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Was gonna buy it.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: But then I had the moment and I was like,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: there is no way this is going to last to
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: my next winter.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: There's no way. And whilst yes it is affordable.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: For me right now, next winter when I've got to
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: repurchase it, I basically should have just bought the expensive
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: version that's gonna last me a long time.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: And yes, I know that sounds so freaking obvious.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: But I just like that now that's coming into my
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: shopping process, it's coming into a lot of our shopping
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: process that yes, it's.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: Very easy to have the knee jerk and being like.
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, that's so cute. Sorry cheap, it's dope.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: But being like, oh, but this is like I want
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: to wear this a lot, Yeah, and have it with
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: you from season to season, which I also think is
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: important and especially with nitwear something like that.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: That's what I was looking at.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, nitwear. I'm like, I was gonna ask you, where
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: is one of your favorite places to get affordable but
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: good quality nitwear or somewhere where you think it matches
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: the price point at least if you want.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: Good quality, affordable knitwear, run to Uniclo. They have literally
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: the best bang for your buck nitwear ever. Every year
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: we post about it every year, it goes viral and
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: it truly is just soft, beautiful, cozy, warm bury me
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: in it.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: They have such good quality bank for your buck.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: They have one one hundred percent cashme jumpers nitwear cardigans
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: for one hundred and twenty nine ninety which, whilst that
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: number still is a splurge, if you were to go
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: to a higher end or another seller and find one
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: hundred percent cashme, you're probably going to be paying like
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: four hundred dollars plus. Like, it's stunning, it's amazing, it's brave. Also,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: their basics, like long sleeves, they've got one hundred percent
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: cotton or ninety three percent cotton. It's a high percentage
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: cotton for a really affordable price point of sometimes less
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: than twenty dollars. So the other thing that I do
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: love about Uniclo, this should be an ad, it's not.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: The other thing I love is that when you go
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: into Uniclo you do not see micro trends. Again, micro
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: trends are not the devil. Uniclode does not follow micro trends.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: It follows your basics, right, So what you're getting at
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: a really high quality is going to be really easy
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: to fit into the standard wardrobe foundation, which is what
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: that's what I like about them, and that because they're
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: at such a high quality, you're going to get the
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: year in year's worth out of it.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, you know what what you're going to get
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: when you work in basically. Another brand that I really
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: like for knitwear is Assembly Label. I would say that
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: they're not as affordable as Uniclo, but they I would
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: say they sit in the moderate price point for the
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: fabric composition. They also have one hundred percent cashmere and
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: really good quality pieces that would sit more so around
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: the two hundred dollar mark. However, what I will say
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: is they regularly participate in sale events, so I have
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: never bought any of my nitwear from their full price.
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: I always wait for the click frenzies or the after
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: pay days because they regularly do go on sale. And
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: I love the silhouettes and the styles of the jumpers
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: that they have there as well and the colors, so
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: I like to look to them as well for that.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Okay, shall we get into broad Ay, So I want
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: to chat through our winter cozy girl skincare regime.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: And it's not stops, it swaps.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: So when we're entering winter, because it's chili, she's cold,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: she's windy, you would assume that your skin is drier
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: in summer because it's hot. Yeah, but it's drier in winter, which,
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: like when I first found that out, I was like,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: this doesn't make sense, but it does because science and
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: really leaning into a hydrating routine in winter is going
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: to create a skincare regime that is chef's kiss. So
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: some things you can do to create a winter skincare
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: routine is swapping gel cleanses for cream, milky or balm cleanses.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: The Alpha H cleansing balm is literally.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: Ride or die, we love it.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: You also want to add a hydrating serum or facial
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: oil especially or potentially even swap it out for those
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: chemical expliences that are really really harsh because they.
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: Can dry out your skin.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: Do not skip SBF just because the sun's hiding. There
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: have been studies that show the UV is actually stronger
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: on a cloudy day because the sun rays pushed through more.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, which I'm like, oh fuck.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: And Also, if you're inside, you still need to be
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: putting on SPF, even if you're not leaving the house
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: that day because you're like not going out there, you
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: still need to put on the SPF because the UV
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: rays can still come through your window. Yeah, you want
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: to swap your lip gloss for a lip.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: Mask or balm.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: It gives the same look.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Honestly, it gives the same look, and you always you
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: can swap it back if you want. And then, last,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: but not least, is a hydrating shower routine incorporating a
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: shower oil and then a balm before bed to really lock.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: In the hydration and get that get that in there.
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, go full glazed donut.
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: Literally, like, as a dry skin girl, Winter is my
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: final boss. Yeah, And like I'm out here faked tanning
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: and Tiger Cobb loafing.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, even if it's just the neck and the hand.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, we're not doing full body faked Hans in winter.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: Gama near no Na.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: What about you?
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: What do you always kind of incorporate into your beauty
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: routine in winter?
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: During winter, I like to double down with the hydration,
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: the body hydration, So I'll do an oil and then
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: I also do a moisturizer too, and I'll just double
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: down on both because again I also get really dry,
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: especially on my arms and legs. It's also I think
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: a bit of a romanticization because you're not leaving the
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: house as much, So a bit of an at home
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: pamper can kind of give you a little bit of
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: romance in your every day because you're not going out
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: as much. You're not going to the beach, like if
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: it's raining the Hot Girl walks maybe not there, yeah exactly,
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: And like putting on your cozy flannel at Pj's and
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: I just feel like mine always smell like a beautiful potion.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: On that Hot Girl winter checklist. A good pair of
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: Flanelette pajamas.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: I will die.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: On this hill that like Flanelet sheets, Flanelet pajamas, are
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: the best investment you can make in winter, and they
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: don't even have to be expensive bed, bathroom table. Their
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: pjs are not only like the cutest prints fucking ever,
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: but you can get matching Flanelet sheets to match your pajamas.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: And chef's kiss on a kiss.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: I love them, and I always go like, way too
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: big of my size because I love my lack pajamas
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: being oversized and kind of like falling off. I know
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: that sounds weird, but I don't like anything tight.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: That kind of relates to my next thing on the
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: Hot Chick Winter checklist, and it's low cost ways to
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: heat your shitty sharehouse apartment. I remember in my first
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: share house it would be colder inside than it was outside,
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: and what's up with that? I don't know. It's the
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: way that, like a lot of apartments and buildings in
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: Sydney especially are insulated. Yeah, so we've got some low
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: cost options to heat your apartment. You did mention this one.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: Swap your cotton or linen bedding for flanelette or jersey
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: something a little bit cozier. I saw somebody say, don't
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: try and warm up the room, warm up your body,
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: and I was like that's.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: Actually I hate that because it means that our dads
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: were right all along whenever you would try to put
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: the heater on and he'd be like, go put on
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: a jumper, and you'd be.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: Like, I know, I know. But it's once you live
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: in your own apartment out at home and you have
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: to pay those you understand, and I know that you
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: have had a really good electric blanket recommendation in the past,
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: but you also can opt for a hot water bottle
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: or a heat pack.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Do you know what I've got?
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: Another recommendation is a wool mattress topper. So my sister
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: bought this for me, and it's basically a reversible mattress
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: topper and one side's wool and one side's cotton, and
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: so when it's winter, you flip it over and you
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: have the wool side and honestly exactly the same as
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: an electric blanket in my eyes, and cheaper because it
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: doesn't run electricity, and potentially safer because you kind of
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: hear horror stories with electric blankets, but my experience has
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: never been that.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I really love that because it is something that
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: you can use through the seasons. Also, getting a door snake.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: Stop we're getting old, but I'm just saying.
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: I know, I love it.
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: It's giving Grandma call fully.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: Also like adding a rug to your room.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean my whole apartment's carpet.
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: But if you have like tiles or yeah, or even
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: if you do have yeah, if you do have floorwards,
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: or if you do have carpet, if you add a rug,
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: it just adds extra insulation. And then I feel like.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: My dad, Okay, hit me, but hit me.
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: She was right fuck all along keeping the windows open
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: during the day to let the sun in, and then
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: as the sun is setting, that's when you close the
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: blinds to trap the heat in. I don't like that,
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: I know, but it's justice practical, and our dads.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Were right on that note of kind of bringing in
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: your winter space, like you know how you kind of
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: have your spring reset and your spring clean. There's definitely
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: like a winter rebalance, which I am obsessed with, you know,
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: I love like a rebalance of your habitat where you
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: put the winter sheets on, maybe you put like your
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: summer clothing under the bed, and you put your winter
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: clothing back in your wardrobe.
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: You get your winter jamis.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: Because we've said this in last year's one as well
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: lean into restfulness in winter. So winter is for rest,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: not for rot, because again I love a good rot,
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: but she's a slippery slope. And again with this time
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: of year, we all can get pretty tired, and midyear
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: can be a little bit of a slump.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: I think.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: I think we can sometimes look at maybe the things
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: we wanted to achieve this year and we look back
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: and we're like, oh, well, gave up on that.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: I can't do that, I can't do that.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: It's a really good time for like a midyear reset,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: but not one that puts pressure on you, one that
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: gives you space to rest, lay down and kind of
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: have a little bit of a gentle moment that's not
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: necessarily productive, but not the not not that you know
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: what I mean.
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: So like when you still feed your.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: Souls, yes, things that are still fuel you, but you're
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: not exhausted. So like journaling, Like I know that this
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: is the most boring recommendation because every fucking man and
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: their dog and mel Robun's jupe has like literally said
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: to journal, but I'm like it's so fun and like
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: get a fuck off cute notebook, like get something fun
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: to do it in try a new winter morning routine.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Like I know, again this is so and such a
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: simple thing, but I have been obsessed with mockers this winter,
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: Like and I normally drink iced coffees all year three
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: because I'm a hychopath, or having like a little Sunday
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: fun day, get a fucking board game, play some board games,
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: watch some movies, read a book that has nothing to
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: do with self betterment. It's like the three months do
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: not need to be a complete ride off, Like you
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: still should enjoy your time. And I think this new
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: mentality is kind of how I'm like half curing my
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: seasonal depression because like I notoriously hate winter because I'm like,
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: what is that a jo?
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's more about okay, let's find some cozy
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: things to do.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I love that. That kind of leans into the
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: next thing on my checklist, which is leaning into indore hobbies.
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: They are best done during winter, so things like knitting
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: and crochet.
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: I am in this era. Yeah, I said it.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: At the sad of the year, I was like, the
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: hot girl hobby this year will be knitting.
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, watch this fucking space, Like you don't have.
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: To go out and buy the best of the best
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: if it's yeah, and they're like fifteen dollars. They have
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: so many amazing little knitting and crochets.
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: You know, it's really good about it.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: It keeps your hands busy so that you're not doing
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: scrolling late at night exactly when you're watching Telly.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: You just do a little bit n in Yeah, and.
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: It's just like a cute creative outlet. Also coloring in
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: books you can get them from Kmart as well, and yeah,
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: like ten dollars, and they're the ones that you've probably
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: seen all over TikTok and Pinterest, and they have different categories.
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: It's like cozy cute or cozy calm, and they're these
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: little cartoon bears and they'll be like on a picnic
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: and they're a little bit more simplified. So I do
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: feel like they are more achievable. And I've seen so
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: many girlies out there having coloring in nights with their friends,
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: which I love that because it's something that you can
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: do solo, or you can make it a social activity
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: to do at home during winter two, which I do
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: think is so cute. And speaking of more social things,
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: have like a potluck dinner, get like a group of
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: your friends be like you're on entrees, you're on dessert.
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: I've got the main and get people to bring a
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: potlark and you can host a little dinner party that's
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: cozy and cute indoors.
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: I do like the lack of pressure to be social
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: in winter, but I think again slippery slope that you
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: can kind of come out and be like cool servants.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: See my friends for like three months and I'm feeling depressed,
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: and that could.
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: Potentially be why.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: But I do like how like it's not an every
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: weekend thing in winter.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: Exactly, and it's just a different kind of vibe.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: One thing that I love about like going out in
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: winter is swapping like a bar for like a pub
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: feed and home by nine o'clock vibe.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: I'm all, I'm pubble you around like it's.
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: So cozy and footies on you're all rugged up. Yeah,
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: but yeah, love it.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: My final item on the Hot Cheek Winter Check least
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: is to find your signature winter scent. So I kind
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: of I love like floral fragrances. They're super fun, but
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: they're for summer. I feel like winter perfumes are kind
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: of like a warm, cozy hug. They're spicy, they're sweet.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: They kind of smell like a winter morning. So I
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: have some suggestions hit me, I know, because we all
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: love Like every time I talk about perfumes and fragrances
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: pops off. Yeah. Literally, the girlies love it and great
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: because I love talking about it. Okay, you'r use smell
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: nice winter fragrances. They're giving like winter smell nice rich
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: an't vibes. Yeah, cozy, sexy. Okay.
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: So Number one why I sell black Opium.
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: It's sweet coffee vanilla, white flowers, and it is a
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: cult favorite for a reason. Number two is the Kali
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: Vanilla twenty eight. I've recommended this before, but it truly
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: is like a vanilla y spicy.
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: Hot chocolate cafe. It's just so beautiful.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: It's like viral on TikTok and yet rich, sweet, but
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: not cloying. It doesn't overwhelm your nose like some sweet
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: and spice fragrances can. Yeah. My next one is also
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: lazy Sunday morning sounds exactly as it is. It's like
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: Lily of the Valley iris, white mask, clean laundry. The
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: vibe is like waking up to fresh sheets on cold morning.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: I know, and it is a splurge.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: So I also have a more affordable recommendation and it
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: is the Lush Fragrances. If you want a fragrance that
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: people will stop you on the street and be like,
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: what the fuck are you wearing?
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: Go to Lush.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: There are so many amazing fragrances that are so affordable,
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: long lasting, unique scents, and so many that are perfect
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: for winter. My favorite you smell nice fragrances from Lush
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: is let the good times roll, sticky dates. They also
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: have a new one called Bond Street nineteen seventy two
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: and this one is a clean green notes deliverer, sharp
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: first impression and is floral.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: But like winter esque.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: And it's an elegant floral perfume created by Lush perfumer
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: Emma for her own wedding day, and it's inspired by
• 31:22
