Thanks for watching me continue to try to be an adult. Speaking of adults, you know what adults do? Eat food! So do children! Here, let me help with that. Use code WHEEZY50 to get 50% off your first Factor box at bit.ly/3BqQ0YB
Min 4:33... I had already Yes'd most "fits on you, Craig. Then you had to put back on the tired clothes. :)
Damn, what a wife! You're such a lucky Waiter!
"Trying to be an adult..."
Wheezy, while playing cartoony video game =)

I love the things Chyna picked with you. It's not difficult to style, high-maintenance or really different from what you had. It's just slightly nicer and more thought-through items that easily work together. This might be my favourite wardrobe make-over video on UA-cam.
Yeah, she has a great eye for what would be comfy and not intimidating. Like his wardrobe but better.
It was a really fun video and I thought Craig looked great! I love their dynamic and Chyna picked some really nice, but casual and approachable, items!

Chyna has to be the most likable youtuber spouse. If things aren't as playful and fun between them as they appear, never tell me, let me believe things could be so nice.
"That's the problem with having nice things, you have to care about them." - Craig 2023.
This one resonates. I only have so much headspace for caring, and thus for nice things. Fashion isn't one of them but the capsule closet is a great way to fix that.
Why not go one stepfurther amd trimthe beard close to face?
@@ruthrice3498 Blasphomy!
When i was little my parents had a raggedy old couch that we could jump on with shoes and nobody cared and you would sink into the cushions because it was so worn out. I never understood why mom just had to get a boring new couch that you weren't even allowed to jump on.
I was thinking. Didnt you just do a video where you bought loads of new clothes? And then realised that video was about 6 years ago.
I did the same thing! 😂
I did the same thing too!
Lol!!
Chyna is such a great consultant! Excellent tips and great sense of humor.
As a bit of a fashion-nut, I loved watching this! Can't wait for episode 2, fall/winter wardrobe makeover 😄
Yes!
Craig, you have no idea what you just unleashed upon my marriage. Bombshell journalism.
I have your exact problem.
Can Chyna do one for women who don't know fashion and haven't cared about fashion their whole life?
I need this too. I like hippie/casual clothes. So like baggie harem pants, bell bottom style jeans, etc. But then I have trouble matching my clothes and at this point my clothing is just chaos
Same. I generally some variety of simple shirt, black or blue jeans, and black & white sneakers. Throw in a denim jacket or a black coat when it's cold and that's it for pretty much every situation. No idea how to style skirts or anything more femme, with accessories no less
Same. I've just dove into minimalism and wear like the same things all the time.
Do you know somebody who's fashion you enjoy? What do you think about asking them to go on a shopping trip with you?
Same here. I found a bit of peace a few years back with my wardrobe going through a similar process ending up with a "student but way too old" style. But I have no idea how to adapt to other situations like interviews or similar so would also like to have some "grown up" options ... unfortunately no spouse for help in sight XD
Honestly, life can be such a stressful downer. Your videos bring some welcome relief to that with humor and kindness. I love watching them no matter what the subject matter happens to be. . Thanks Craig and Chyna. 💜
I came for the bearded adorkable, and stayed for the fine Chyna.....+commentary. She really makes the content shine with her quick-wit and grounding presence! Thanks as always for the laughs and learns.
I don't think we've ever seen Chyna as genuinely annoyed as she is about those things that are absolutely pajama pants. (This video was lovely and Chyna is so cool).
That's a very strange way to spell "joggers".
I’ve tried wearing my ‘joggers’ outside but it’s not a good look 😅
Definitely a "glow up," Craig! And I love the way you and Chyna model good communication and having fun together.
I love how the new stuff is still you! When my husband and I were first dating he had a few things that just did not seem like him. It turned out a friend’s sister took him shopping for mor stylish clothes. They were more stylish, just totally not “him”. You and Chyna did it right.❤ Love to see it.
Something that I've found helpful is an outfit that fits most situations that I can put on whenever when I don't feel like thinking about it. For me it's dark jeans, neutral colored flannel, doc martens. It's boring and says nothing about me, but sometimes I need to be an NPC.
the minimalists would call that a uniform ;) It's the standard daily outfit that does not require thought.
I am going to put together this outfit for my boyfriend, he has only very casual and very dressy. Thanks!
Being and NPC is TIGHT!
Replace the flannel with a band shirt and maybe a leather jacket, and you're a metalhead.
@@maleldil1 I used to b for most of my teens and twenties XD
Figuring out ways to reduce or eliminate decision paralysis-like deciding on my work outfit the night before instead of first thing in the morning-was huge for me. Also leaning into the fact that I like dresses because they are nearly complete outfits-just add shoes (and a sweater if necessary).
10:26 this whole section had me dying of laughter 😂 Every time he said throw it and she said I actually like this one and then he immediately says keep it, it’s my favourite I would never throw that away 🤣
You have the best wife ever. She adds another 50% to your channel! And gratz on the upgraded wardrobe!
Chyna is seriously one of the funniest women. She has perfect timing.
Yay this was so positive. Love this channel! So funny + inspiring + down-to-earth. About the wardrobe: you look great and clearly got some clothes therapy!! I agree, capsule wardrobes are where it's at! I feel really good when my clothes are intentional, comfortable, and support my lifestyle (like movement-friendly, all-weather, increasingly more sustainable, etc.). I'm a fabric geek + color geek too haha
"What's google?"
"Just a really big number"
"That doesn't make any sense."
I love this 😆
One of my favourite videos you’ve made thus far! Made me laugh a ton. I love your genuine friendship with Chyna.
this video was so fun, would LOVE to see more about fashion from you. chyna's tips were exactly what I would say too for someone who wants to look put together without a lot of effort
16:10 While an iron is more useful in certain scenarios, I've gotten much more use out of a clothes steamer than an iron since getting one. It feels faster and easier when removing moderate wrinkles from t-shirts and pants especially. Might be worth looking into one
I would love to see YOU pick out Chyna's wardrobe for the week. spice it up! let's go!
Chyna’s comedy timing is gold!!! This is one of the first Wheezy vlogs I’ve been recommended by UA-cam in way too long and I’m a subscriber. 😧
I feel you, Craig. I've been waiting my whole life for that sci-fi future dream of everyone having to wear the same jumpsuit every day.
Isn't that called the army?
- I'm just giving you shit.
No worries.
@@nzcuckoobird prison too! Not bad ideas 🤔
Fuchsia?
@@nzcuckoobird yes. sold!
I'd prefer it not to be a onesie though, for bathroom sake, if you know what I mean
Apparently I've had a 'capsule wardrobe' for two decades. I thought I was just being frugal, but was actually trend-setting 🤣
Well I did not think anything negative about your clothes before tbh, but I agree these clothes look quite good on you! Especially the green and the blue shirt are giving me some serious sewjo to recreate a similar blouse for my boyfriend (who hates to shop but likes when I make him stuff)
For those of us that grew up with our parents taking us to Sears to buy most of our new clothes, I think what we really need is a grown up and cooler version of Garanimals. Match like tags and it magically works! This would solve most of the challenges non-shopper adults have today with their wardrobes.
Underrated comment.. 🤣🤣🤣 Geranimals is cool! Haha
That sounds like a dream come true.
This is really life changing. I didn't care about clothes before, just like you, but it changes you and how other people look at you and how you feel. It makes you look younger.
One remark for the final touch:
After your clothes, think about your hair. Keep it well groomed.
Especially your hair on your head makes you look like an old man (I have the same problem). Keep it short and shaven, will make you look younger, especially with your new clothes.
You two are adorable. Cherish each other, you're both total keepers 🙂
I'm amazing how so many of us enjoy you learning how to adult.
You have a healthy dose of self esteem, there
You and Chyna were so funny in this, loved you guys sense of humor
I found it perfect that when you were discussing the process in the beginning, you said it would be a 'journey' and then you ended up shopping at a store called Journeyman.
I went shopping with my brother last week as his birthday present. First we went through his current wardrobe and had to throw away 1/4th of the clothes because they were so old or had holes in them, a lot more clothes we gave to goodwill.
I also went the route of a capsule wardrobe! Very basic clothes, jeans, dress pants, sweathers, tshirts etc all very neutral + that you can combine with anything so my brother doesn't have to worry about fashion. I never make him buy something he's not sure about or is too much out of his comfort zone because he'll just never wear it
It's nice to see him wear those clothes every day, it's a job well done!
I’m constantly in awe of how much your relationship with Chyna reminds me of my relationship with my partner! It’s comforting to be so seen! 😅
1:51 ooh, she nailed me. I want to be more minimalist, but I love color and pattern motifs!
Your new outfits look SO good! Chyna did a great job!
One of my recent favorites of yours! Some good ole fun with Chyna with some nuggets of genuinely helpful about discussion about fashion for those whole want to diversify their wardrobe. And honestly, you look so good!!
Chyna has so many opinions and gets so fired up, I love it!!! XD Also not liking the vibes of clothes is totally valid, hopefully Craig feels happy in his new drip. The red flannel really suited you, and I also liked the white long sleeve button up (even if you only showed it for half a microsecond) and the green button up shirt! I do agree with you that it's stupid that we have to care, but when you care about yourself you project that confidence - your posture even looked different trying on some of the new stuff!
As a long time viewer i can actually say this video was really interesting. watching your journey into adulthood.
I love the integratrion of your old video footage. Looks great.
Chyna's "name" in the captions is my favorite.
0:41 This is a quote to live by. I try to remind myself of it all the time.
I love seeing you and Chyna together. Your dynamic is wonderful. It brightens my day❤
Hey wheezy, I used to watch your videos 14 years ago, just went down memory lane and remembered about your channel, I'm glad you are still around and I'll be subscribing again
You look great in the new clothes! Bravo! Great job by fashion advisor Chyna!
Going through a similar process. I call my current look “legally sufficient” as in the clothes I wear largely exist so I don’t get arrested for public indecency. 100% harder than I expected. Cheers to anyone doing it
Bunny looks so sweet. I have a little white wavy-haired dog (some sort of poodle mix? not sure) and she has been such a wonderful addition to our household. I don't know what we would do without her. Dogs add so much to our lives. I love to see you guys love on Bunny. :) Be well.
This was a fantastic video, Craig. Very well put together.
Bunny chose a statement piece (fur coat) and she rocks it everyday.
Hey Craig I've been obssessed with Cholera lately. Its awesome you are still around and am excited to catch up on the backlog
Honestly, your quote sums up where I eventually land on a lot of stuff, "that's the problem with getting nice things, is that you care about them" I relate so hard to the beating up the car and not paying attention to washing clothes a certain way
“Middle of April - What the F……. “. made me spit my coffee…thanks for the laughs!!!
Re-watching this again with hubbs and now we are actually really excited to try Factor 😂
I’ve been wearing a “summer wardrobe” for like the last 10years.
When cold just wear a hoodie of your choice
When super cold wear one of those Eddie Bauer jackets. They do the trick 👍🏼
"Google." "What's that?" "A big number" "That doesn't make any sense." is now one of my favorite bits between you two.
Very enjoyable video. Thanks Craig and Chyna
what you can definitely see comparing your younger self with your current self is the amount of self care. Which can translate to looking younger or older especially when actually getting older. I feel like from 30 upwards it makes a big difference in apparent age how much one cares about health. Alcohol, unhealthy eating habits and smoking let one age dramatically. And at the same time people can "turn back time" switching to healthier life styles.
All in all I would agree that you look way way healthier than in your old videos and maybe even a bit younger.
You and your strive to be your best self and getting out of your comfort zone are inspiring! :)
You look great! I like your new selections and that you feel more confident with your upgrades. :) You two crack me up with your banter. Carry on.
the poop bag is a great addition to your wardrobe!
I am literally doing the exact same thing and realised that I like long flowy things. Now that your capsule is done, try to buy one or two "statement pieces" a month. Something that differentiates the capsule looks.
For example, taking a flannel shirt and wearing it over a t-shirt and jeans unbuttoned (the shirt, not the jeans 👀 😅).
Then the final step is accessories if you are so inclined 😁
I don't know if you're doing the captions, but I love how every time Craig groans it says "bearded one"
Are we not going to talk about the BAR inside a clothing store?! Love it. WI ingenuity at its finest.
I think your new wardrobe looks really good and it seems like it's also comfortable. And I feel your pain about that snowstorm in April, we had it here in Madison, too.
Love this video. My wife and I watched and she says I definitely need a makeover. Watching this video is a good start. Thanks very much. 😀
I initially clicked on this video just to support the ol' Craigster (tm), but I'll be gosh-darned if this here weren't a superb video from start to finish!
I have just done the same things just recently, purchased new clothes, mostly because I've been broke for so long. I purchased nice new jeans, button ups and really nice sneaks. I have a HUGE torso and always broke that up with a graphic tee shirt. It needed to change. It does make me feel good about myself wearing nicer fitting clothes. Most recent I changed from long, past the knee shorts, to above the knee! Who knew I had sexy man legs!? I do have to disagree with Chyna about the pajama/jogging pants. I don't go out of the house in jogging pants or gym shorts ever. Maybe on the way home from the gym If I need gas but otherwise NOPE. Pajamas.
hey, you got this. don't forget it.
re: taking care of clothes... I shifted to drying my clothes on medium heat a while back, even for basics it helps them last longer. If you have the patients for it, it's nice to hang dry things during warm weather.

What a great video, Wheezy. As usual. I love how Chyna said she does not like buying new clothes when she can avoid it. I am the same!!!
And I laughed out loud when you said "well... calm down." after the "WHAT'S the DEAAAAL" joke. I mean, I guess calm down was part of the joke too, but just hilarious how you tone-changed so quickly. Love it.
Would you mind if I go back and leave timestamps if I don't see them in your older videos? I like them because I rewatch a lot of your videos, and timestamps are useful, for me at least. Thanks for great content. CONTENT!(confetti)
its good you taking some steps!

Love this video. Chyna did a fantastic job. You looked very nice in the red shirt and I liked the combination of the blue thicker top with the green trousers. You have a very good style sense. Looking forward to more videos
The best part of this video is Chyna :) i thought it's gonna be a super boring stuff when you first mentioned it but I enjoyed it so much.
Nice shopping choices. It's amazing how clothes can sometimes make you feel.
Poor Chyna she is a saint, I haven't finished the video yet but those short sleeve button ups will look great open layered over any of your regular t shirts too
Man. I've been wanting to do this for YEARS!
Ooo Craig wore a shirt... specifically the green shirt on the b&bg/wttb crossovers
This video was so fun. Also, I can't tell if Chyna's hair is lighter but something about her looks so fresh and pretty in this video ❤
I agree with you that it's silly that we have to be concerned about how we look, BUT I will also say that you look spiffy in your new clothes!
This was actually helpful for me, a woman who has little to no idea what is currently in style, but has (slowly) figured out what looks good on me in terms of color and fit. This year I am trying to figure out my wardrobe, as many of my pieces are wearing out, and my career has changed to a point where I'm definitely keeping clothing I will never wear again. I want to end up with a really easy wardrobe that fits well and goes between something I could wear at home and still feel good enough to run a quick errand or answer the door, and a few pieces I could dress up in. I set a budget, and I'm buying pieces slowly.
Chyna has great taste. I really enjoyed this wardrobe makeover.
SAME!!! UGH!!!!! I'm 40, newly single, 100% of the time solo parent of 4 kids. I've for sure got job interviews down the line and a new life to start - possibly making new friends (because the old ones didn't exist - abuse and control means no friends for me) ANYWAY! THANK YOU! I'm slowly starting to care. I do care ish. Part of it for me is valuing myself. Going from being a piece of property in a house to being a living breathing human who is worthy of self care/ mediocre ish clothing is CRAZY.
HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!
~Jj
Chyna just dropping, "we'll bury you in it" about the suit, fucking sent me! Absolutely hilarious. Love when the content includes both of you bc the banter is top charts, y'all, good stuff! 🤣🤘💖
I love you both.
I love the shirts! Just a suggestion (turned into a long comment, excuse me) - you might find seasonal color analysis useful if you want an easy-to-combine capsule wardrobe, I certainly did. Color analysis has a bit of a horoscope vibe around it, but don't let that get to you :) It's about the way colors interact with the natural colors of your features (just btw, it's based on actual science, color theory, which is all about the harmony or contrast of color wavelengths).
I found it super useful because I always wanted a low maintenance, just put it on and go type of wardrobe, but I was often very unhappy with how clothes looked on me. I was trying to wear colors I perceived as safety colors, but they made me look tired and I didn't feel confident in them. On the contrary, now I wear things and don't really have to put on makeup (I know, not an issue for you) and have some innate confidence about my wardrobe, because I know why I'm wearing specific items together.
So yeah, I think many of these items are perfectly in your lane (you're almost definitely a summer, trust me, I do this for money :D) and I think that's part of why you'll gravitate to them on the long term! Checking the summer color season might help you understand how to create easy combinations.
Yay for having fun with body-related stuff and enjoying stuff! Been following you forever and I'm really happy you're in this great space now. And kudos to Chyna for the great stylin'!
I am in the exact same boat as Craig. Never cared about my wardrobe. Absolutely despise shopping. Going to be 43 in July and need to do this also. I don’t have a Chyna to help me but thank you for the inspiration
It is fun to learn new things and grow. Glad you are trying something new for yourself :)
Be who you are... MORE!!! With a new "who you are" CLOTHES!!!
that shirt you said not fully sold on i love it maybe its the pattern on it day 1s looked like a hawaii shirt but with honey comb shapes instead of flowers
i love hawaiian shirts and flower pattern ones
i know a lot of people who wear lounge wear as pajama pants so i say either one works i call all the pants like that sweat pants
i do not see them as sleep wear or day wear just how somebody feels like using them
2:53 PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a WheezyWaiter brand tiedye onesie. PLEASE!
"Everything's a journey!!!" D:<
A quote to live by while simultaneously relating to.
I helped my partner realise that they do in fact have fashion opinions in the last year or two! They love bright colours and comfort over style, and I think society tells you that those aren't valid opinions to have... But I'm like "let's lean into it!! Your favourite tee is tie-die, let's get you more tie-dye!" And "you love bright pants! Let's try to find them in all your favourite colours at the op-shop!". I did buy them some new magenta corduroy pants though cause they LOVE magenta. Now they look at their clothes and get excited about wearing them :~)
(I also got them into buying slightly expensive underwear because I bought them a couple of pairs for Christmas and then they realised how much better they were than the cheapest possible brand 😅)
You looked fantastic Craig in all your new outfits.
The video I never knew I needed! So fun. Lowkey, I feel like the button ups super elevated Craig's look and made him look younger.
I'm so glad that the burgundy and navy blue long-sleeve stayed with us.
I love the captions."Bearded speaker" "Blonde speaker." Great choices. Chyna, I feel your pain, this is exactly the cycle I go through with my husband.
