Loved this video! You were super thoughtful yet concise in your feedback and covered a lot! This curly girl adores when you rock your natural curls too!
This video and the “things that’s sparks joy to me” and the “things I’ve done to my face” has been so refreshing and I true my love them. Also I went to Montreal this year and fell in love with the city
I also got the Dyson vacuum as a gift for my 29th birthday from my mom haha! I referred to it as my "this is how I know I'm getting older" gift because I was truly overjoyed to get a vacuum for my birthday. It is amazing.
This was a great video! I really liked that you picked viral and current “it” products. Your criticisms of the products regarding your personal style, preferences, climate, and lifestyle was great. You really gave insight into how unfortunately trends typically are very commercialized.
I completely agree about the always pan. I used to love mine but after a year i stopped loving it. Not worth it. Also minority opinion here: Shark cordless vacuums are better than Dyson in my opinion at half the price point lol. Has more suction power!
Oh, the Adidas Samba - I completely relate. I succumbed to the hype and bought the same pair while in New York because everyone was wearing them. However, once I returned to London, I quickly sold them. They were uncomfortable, my foot kept slipping out, and they didn't complement any of my outfits, despite my love for the sage colour.
Thank you so much for reviewing the pan because I was thinking about purchasing them but you just save me some money I’m not purchasing them after all. happy holidays. Everyone be safe out there and once again, thank you for your honesty. I really do appreciate it.❤❤
I bought an aritzia super puff like 5 years ago, it’s the long taupe color and I really love it. They’re also really easy to wash, I’ve never had a problem throwing them in the washing machine x
bellefinery The canvas tote actually reminds me of the Hermes Garden Party too. Thanks for making this video to suggest more budget friendly alternatives. love it! 😊
I splurged on a Dyson Outsize when it was on sale 2 years ago and it is one of the best purchases I’ve ever made! I went from vacuuming once in a blue moon to vacuuming nearly daily, and it’s completely replaced sweeping for me as well because it works great on hard floors. They’re expensive but they are so worth it. I also got a small kindle as a birthday gift from my husband a couple of years ago. I was always a physical book person, too, but now I’m a total convert! They get pretty marked down on Amazon during their Prime days, so it’s easy to get a good deal.
influencing me on the thrift tote. i’ve been eyeing it forever but i’m like eeeeee 😂 also thank you for your honest review for the our place pan because i almost put it on my christmas list
Bought the Sambas in white with black stripes for the same reason...love love love them! I'm finding them to be my go to sneakers, almost feel like a sliper!
The TNA Powder Dri Parka is such a good jacket for cold winters! The quality is so much better than the Superpuff and keeps you so much warmer! I have it in black, it's long, and it's the best thing ever
Was wondering about the Aupen bag. I’m always leery of items that ship from China and saw the return policy charges you $80 to ship it back. Regarding nonstick pans I feel like they just don’t last very long. I started just buying cheap ones from TJ Maxx and replace every year or as needed.
Capitalism at its finest. That bag has no intrinsic value beyond its ability to hold stuff. It is purely plastic, costs the company nearly nothing to make. And it's gonna end up in a landfill for 500 years.
I’ve been watching you and Carrie Dayton forever now so I think it’s great that Carrie inspired you to make this video! The Dyson Vacuum is one of the best things ever. It’s so user friendly and effective! Also your hair looks fabulous in this video!
Looove this video and you actually focusing on practicality of those products. Definitely agree about dyson vacuum. I had what I thought was a great vacuum until my mother in law got one and I tested it. It saved me at least 10mins of time per session and lifted ALL the cat hair out of carpet. I used to vacuum my carpet for ever and stll brushed it out once a month to get all the pet hair out of it. Now I quickly go over it with dyson and it’s perfect.
As another Canadian that lives in a snowbelt region on the coast of Georgian Bay, the knee length coat is THE MOVE. No short parka can compete. You simply need a big ass long parka for winters here. Great budget options for Canadians include Colombia or Borealis (the Sail brand).
Totally agree about the Sambas. Luckily I resisted and when my friend bought it (we are the same size) I tried them I found them very uncomfortable and really too flat. It’s okay if you have no issues at all with your ankles, meaning even little lymphatic swelling. I adore to see them on the others anyway.
You look like Milly Bobby Brown. Love it ❤ and love this video! I try to avoid a lot of trends. I am 35 now and I realize that I more and more want to invest in an amazing closet full of timeless pieces. If I buy trend pieces I will buy the cheaper versions of it or something I already loved for years like certain colors or fabrics.
I 100% agree on both the always pan and adidas shoes!! I had the exact same issues with the ankle slipping out I even tried putting in insoles and honestly it’s just the shoe. I really regret buying my pan for the price the longevity just isn’t there I’ve had it about a year
Omg, I love the sambas. Agreed that they aren't the most comfy, but they have a slim profile which works well with dresses and wide leg pants. It's a great alternative to more chunky New Balance sneakers. I have both and love both.
You know you’re an adult when you get a Dyson vacuum for your birthday lol I got a similar Dyson vacuum for Christmas one year and I love vacuuming now. I don’t know what it is about the Dyson but it’s just picks up anything and everything and it makes me feel like my house is much cleaner than it actually is.😅
I purchased 4 of the various sizes of the Always pans...I totally regret it. I got the clay pink color and the backs are already discoloring. For the cost they should have been made to stand up to high heat. It is what it is and lesson learned. I also have another huge regret buying a RH dupe for the Cloud sofa...the one I ordered online with great reviews has feather quills that are always poking out. It is annoying and such a waste of money.
I’m glad I am not the only one who’s feelings changed on those pans, I bought 2 as well and after a year of use they are not great. Such a bummer because like you said, they come in beautiful colors! :(
this is the video i needed! when I tell you I've been on a shopping SPREE.... it's been bad. Love the idea to pause and wait when an urge to buy something random comes out of nowhere. I did however, get influenced by YOU to get a Wobbles kit (from your hobbies video), and i love it! It's challenging at first but I'm making a tiny scarf 🥲❤
New sub! Lily Pebbles mentioned you in her video, and then in the first 5 mins of this video you mentioned Carrie Dayton and both Lily and Carrie are two of my faves so I immediately knew you were going to be great lol! Oh and you’re Canadian!!! 🤍
I had same reaction to Vejas. They also feel flat, felt super uncomfortable when I regrettably took them on a weekend trip. They felt stiff and left my feet aching. 😢
Enjoyed watching and you gave me an idea for my daughters birthday in April. She is a HUGE Taylor Swift fan that saw her four times during her last tour. I am going to find a Taylor outfit and buy it for her and package with the Taylor picture. Now I just need ideas for the perfect Taylor outfit for a 25 year old that lives in LA?
I work for a company that works very closely with dyson. Unfortunately dyson vacuums (over other brands) are returned the most. I also own a few and can speak on experience: over time the stand vacuums (any one with the balls) have issues with the carpet bar (burnout of motors) and the cordless has issues with the batteries (although here’s a hack, you can use power tool batteries that are compatible like dewalt, Milwaukee, etc)
I'm totally with you on the Sambas. I tried them, but they give zero support, they don't stay on your feet and look like bowling shoes. 😅 I feel most people who got them will agree when the hype has died down
This video came up on my feed. I’ve never seen a video about this subject and thoroughly enjoyed it. Interested in the Woobles kit now. Love your vibe and will be subscribing. Happy New Year 🎆🎊 🎉
Omg I've been watching your videos for quite some time now and I didn't know you live in Montreal! Same here, and I totally agree with you about the Ugg boots. I also wear the Waterproof ones during winter, but the brown normal ones can't handle it, they look so cute but I never actually bought them. Thanks for mentioning it! ❤
Jamie, your fashion items are SO east coast Canadian girlie coded, I love them - so relevant to what I see on the streets!!!! Really enjoyed the video, and lovely meeting you a few weeks ago at the holiday market (I was the girl in all pink, if you rmb 😅)!
Jamie, I was also influenced to buy that damn always pan. IT'S HORRIBLE. It doesn't do what it says and there is no non-stick properties left. I'd rather pay for a normal pan.
I was also influenced by Ms. Swift, but with a piece of jewelry. Taylor wore a necklace from CatbirdNYC x Phoebe Bridgers, and I fell in love with the Swimming Pool chain. It looks so sleek and you could actually see the chain on Taylor's neck from far away. I looked at that chain for MONTHS on the Catbird site, and finally pulled the trigger for Black Friday. It hasn't gotten here yet, but I expect I will be happy with it.
I had the same effect with the zombas. They keep slipping off on the back, bummer.😊 I, however, gave them to my sister, and she loved them. Happy ending😊
This was so fun, yes we’d love a part 2! And LOVE the Dyson vacuum too, I laughed out loud when you said you now look for reasons to vacuum because I do the same now 😂 That crochet kit looks really interesting, I’ve been wanting to pick up a calming hobby … this sounds perfect, especially for winter. Thank you so much for sharing. Maybe a Part 3 video idea could be taking all the items you regret and telling us a “try this, not that” or something. Because I’m curious what lip balm, or what crochet yarn, etc you’d recommend to pick up instead :)
I will never buy another Dyson vacuum again I had mine for maybe 5 years and the head broke not fixable the vacuum guy showed us he had a ton to “fix”..too hyped!
I ended up suggesting Vicious as your book recommendation over on Insta :) Also, I wish we had The Woobles kit over in Australia, might have to pick up something similar/equivalent, these look so cute! Seems like a really fun hobby to get into!
So many times I’ve wanted things and 95% of the time if I just wait a few days I realize I didn’t really want it that bad. Saves me tons of money 😂
would love a part 2! I feel like we go through "buy this!" cycles so fast, it is nice to hear thoughts and perspectives from a longer use experience
Jamie your hair is FABULOUS 😍😍
Thank you!!!
So fabulous🤍
Jamie your hair is amazing!! Wear your hair curly more often!!
Yes, I love it like that 😍
Agreed!!
Loved this video! You were super thoughtful yet concise in your feedback and covered a lot! This curly girl adores when you rock your natural curls too!
Thank you so much!!
Just gonna say i love this video concept. Ive been thinking a lot about 'mimetic desire' lately and how it influences my shopping habits
This video and the “things that’s sparks joy to me” and the “things I’ve done to my face” has been so refreshing and I true my love them. Also I went to Montreal this year and fell in love with the city
yay!! so glad you've been enjoying :) :)
I also got the Dyson vacuum as a gift for my 29th birthday from my mom haha! I referred to it as my "this is how I know I'm getting older" gift because I was truly overjoyed to get a vacuum for my birthday. It is amazing.
I gifted that one to my daughter and son. They are your age. They also love it. So I bought it. Works great!
This was a great video! I really liked that you picked viral and current “it” products. Your criticisms of the products regarding your personal style, preferences, climate, and lifestyle was great. You really gave insight into how unfortunately trends typically are very commercialized.
Glad it was helpful!
What a fantastic video. I realy loved watching this. Yes please to Part 2.
You look so pretty with your curly hair and gorgeous makeup look.
thank you love!
Vacuums are the best birthday/Christmas/event present honestly, life changing in ways that prettier items aren’t 😂 thanks for an awesome video Jamie!!
I completely agree about the always pan. I used to love mine but after a year i stopped loving it. Not worth it. Also minority opinion here: Shark cordless vacuums are better than Dyson in my opinion at half the price point lol. Has more suction power!
Love this video idea, I’d love to see a series of it every so often to see how your thoughts change!
Oh, the Adidas Samba - I completely relate. I succumbed to the hype and bought the same pair while in New York because everyone was wearing them. However, once I returned to London, I quickly sold them. They were uncomfortable, my foot kept slipping out, and they didn't complement any of my outfits, despite my love for the sage colour.
almost bought one yesterday bc i loved the colour, good thing i didnt
Thank you so much for reviewing the pan because I was thinking about purchasing them but you just save me some money I’m not purchasing them after all. happy holidays. Everyone be safe out there and once again, thank you for your honesty. I really do appreciate it.❤❤

1) yes part 2 please! And 2) your hair is so freaking amazing!!!! Please show us how you did your hair!
I splurged on a Dyson Outsize when it was on sale 2 years ago and it is one of the best purchases I’ve ever made! I went from vacuuming once in a blue moon to vacuuming nearly daily, and it’s completely replaced sweeping for me as well because it works great on hard floors. They’re expensive but they are so worth it.
I also got a small kindle as a birthday gift from my husband a couple of years ago. I was always a physical book person, too, but now I’m a total convert! They get pretty marked down on Amazon during their Prime days, so it’s easy to get a good deal.
Love my dyson
influencing me on the thrift tote. i’ve been eyeing it forever but i’m like eeeeee 😂 also thank you for your honest review for the our place pan because i almost put it on my christmas list
The natural hair is curlllliiiinnnngggg ❤omg looks phenomenal
Aah love these videos always!
I always make sure i wait at least a few weeks to make sure i genuinly want something. Works so well
Bought the Sambas in white with black stripes for the same reason...love love love them! I'm finding them to be my go to sneakers, almost feel like a sliper!
The white and black are my favorite, too!
The TNA Powder Dri Parka is such a good jacket for cold winters! The quality is so much better than the Superpuff and keeps you so much warmer! I have it in black, it's long, and it's the best thing ever
You just influenced me to buy a kindle. So far, I love it. I still need to find a case and decorate it with stickers. So much fun !
Was wondering about the Aupen bag. I’m always leery of items that ship from China and saw the return policy charges you $80 to ship it back. Regarding nonstick pans I feel like they just don’t last very long. I started just buying cheap ones from TJ Maxx and replace every year or as needed.
Almost 500$ for pleather is insane. Like you could get something that is better quality at a thrift store. Big time save your money!
Capitalism at its finest. That bag has no intrinsic value beyond its ability to hold stuff. It is purely plastic, costs the company nearly nothing to make. And it's gonna end up in a landfill for 500 years.
@@erica8645exactly! It's so easy to find thrifted leather look-alikes for max $50
I’ve been watching you and Carrie Dayton forever now so I think it’s great that Carrie inspired you to make this video!
The Dyson Vacuum is one of the best things ever. It’s so user friendly and effective!
Also your hair looks fabulous in this video!

You influenced me to get the super puff , fellow Montrealer here and can’t do winter without it now! ❤
LOVE YOUR HAIR! And you're making me want to try crochet! Link for that Fox pattern from Etsy please??? :)
The curls are GIVINGGGGG
As another Canadian that lives in a snowbelt region on the coast of Georgian Bay, the knee length coat is THE MOVE. No short parka can compete. You simply need a big ass long parka for winters here. Great budget options for Canadians include Colombia or Borealis (the Sail brand).
Waiting a week or two to buy things is suchhhh a good idea I’m gonna start doing this!!
I loved this video!!❤ I really appreciate ur honesty especially on the Sambas and the Aupen purse both are items I’ve been eyeing TFS
Love that there’s a VE Schwab book on your kindle 😊😊😊😊😊 also would love to see a part 2 of this video! Love the mixture of products you talked about.
Adidas Gazelles are where it’s at. They have a nice little arch support cushion, and come in new colours every year.
i just bought the thirty years bag too lmaooo i think the waterbottle pocket for me! gonna be my new bag for commuting on the train to the office!
Hi Jamie. English is my second language and I want thank you for your clean pronunciation. Its soo pleasant to hear you. 🥺😌😌😌
Love the concept of this video. It’s so important to get an honest review of trendy products
OK JULIA ROBERTS. Your hair is so so so amazing wow! You look gorgeoussss
Totally agree about the Sambas. Luckily I resisted and when my friend bought it (we are the same size) I tried them I found them very uncomfortable and really too flat. It’s okay if you have no issues at all with your ankles, meaning even little lymphatic swelling.
I adore to see them on the others anyway.
Love the SuperPuff. Very lightweight for a winter jacket and cozy. No complaints, ill buy another one in a different colour and length.
Grow out the bangs beautiful. I love you and have been watching you for years!!
I’ve had my Dyson vacuum since 2016 and I only had to change the battery this year. Great vacuum!
👏🏻👏🏻
You look like Milly Bobby Brown. Love it ❤ and love this video! I try to avoid a lot of trends. I am 35 now and I realize that I more and more want to invest in an amazing closet full of timeless pieces. If I buy trend pieces I will buy the cheaper versions of it or something I already loved for years like certain colors or fabrics.
The variety of textures in the uzbagx pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.
YES THIS HAIR!!!!!! you look so good
I 100% agree on both the always pan and adidas shoes!! I had the exact same issues with the ankle slipping out I even tried putting in insoles and honestly it’s just the shoe. I really regret buying my pan for the price the longevity just isn’t there I’ve had it about a year
Big fan of the super puff. I live in Boston and it gets V cold and so far it's been super nice to have a reliable lightweight jacket
Omg, I love the sambas. Agreed that they aren't the most comfy, but they have a slim profile which works well with dresses and wide leg pants. It's a great alternative to more chunky New Balance sneakers. I have both and love both.
You know you’re an adult when you get a Dyson vacuum for your birthday lol I got a similar Dyson vacuum for Christmas one year and I love vacuuming now. I don’t know what it is about the Dyson but it’s just picks up anything and everything and it makes me feel like my house is much cleaner than it actually is.😅
I feel the same way about the Sambas, I have the cream pair.
I purchased 4 of the various sizes of the Always pans...I totally regret it. I got the clay pink color and the backs are already discoloring.

JAMIE I AM OBSESSED WITH THE HAIR
Love love love this video! Thanks for sharing your honest thoughts on all the things! ❤
I’m glad I am not the only one who’s feelings changed on those pans, I bought 2 as well and after a year of use they are not great. Such a bummer because like you said, they come in beautiful colors! :(
❤ for the algorithm. You and I have the same problem, small heels, occasionally on some shoes my heels slip up and down with each step.😬
This was very informative and helpful. Like someone else said, your hair is gorgeous 😊
YVR 🇨🇦 I have 3 Aritzia puffer coats and 2 vests , love them ,very warm, but not hot or heavy to wear ,great purchase ✔️
I loved this video!! We need a part 2!!

Ahhh that’s awesome!!
Love this video! Please make a series!
yay!!
Crescent shaped handbag, loafers, and small structured bags I bought this year were influenced.
I had same reaction to Vejas. They also feel flat, felt super uncomfortable when I regrettably took them on a weekend trip. They felt stiff and left my feet aching. 😢
Enjoyed watching and you gave me an idea for my daughters birthday in April. She is a HUGE Taylor Swift fan that saw her four times during her last tour. I am going to find a Taylor outfit and buy it for her and package with the Taylor picture. Now I just need ideas for the perfect Taylor outfit for a 25 year old that lives in LA?
I'll watch this when I get home, just wanted to say ....that hair 😍
The sambas look so good but they’re also on my regret list! My heel also goes up and the back of the shoe cuts my heel up
I work for a company that works very closely with dyson. Unfortunately dyson vacuums (over other brands) are returned the most. I also own a few and can speak on experience: over time the stand vacuums (any one with the balls) have issues with the carpet bar (burnout of motors) and the cordless has issues with the batteries (although here’s a hack, you can use power tool batteries that are compatible like dewalt, Milwaukee, etc)
your curls make you look angelic!
I'm totally with you on the Sambas. I tried them, but they give zero support, they don't stay on your feet and look like bowling shoes. 😅 I feel most people who got them will agree when the hype has died down
I’m glad I’m not the only one lol!
I love stainless steel for regular cooking pans/pots, but for eggs, I will always have a TFal non-stick in my kitchen!
I’m so distracted by your hair, it’s gorgeous 😍
This video came up on my feed. I’ve never seen a video about this subject and thoroughly enjoyed it. Interested in the Woobles kit now. Love your vibe and will be subscribing. Happy New Year 🎆🎊 🎉

hehehe that's meeeeeee! thanks for coming by to the holiday market!!! so so lovely meeting you :')
Jamie…my cat on the book stack JPD sticker is the only thing on my Kindle lol!
Jamie, I was also influenced to buy that damn always pan. IT'S HORRIBLE. It doesn't do what it says and there is no non-stick properties left. I'd rather pay for a normal pan.
Loved this video! Love this idea. There are so many things I’m influenced into getting and so often it leads to regret haha
I was also influenced by Ms. Swift, but with a piece of jewelry. Taylor wore a necklace from CatbirdNYC x Phoebe Bridgers, and I fell in love with the Swimming Pool chain. It looks so sleek and you could actually see the chain on Taylor's neck from far away. I looked at that chain for MONTHS on the Catbird site, and finally pulled the trigger for Black Friday. It hasn't gotten here yet, but I expect I will be happy with it.
I am soooooo grateful for reviews like this
Love my super puff, I’ve had long and short! I had the long one and sold it but I kind of regret it. 💔
Your curls are so beautiful. Love to see them more 🎉
Yeah everyone that's used the always pan longer than a year says the same thing. That the non stick coating didn't last.
The our place brand is completely just for the aesthetic. I was almost influenced 2 years ago too and did a quick search and learned they are not good
I had the same effect with the zombas. They keep slipping off on the back, bummer.😊 I, however, gave them to my sister, and she loved them. Happy ending😊
Omg that Hair 😍😍😍❤❤❤ Gorgeous!!!!
🥰🥰
This was so fun, yes we’d love a part 2!

do you have the link of the fox crochet pattern? It's so cute, exactly what I would want to make!! ✨
I will never buy another Dyson vacuum again I had mine for maybe 5 years and the head broke not fixable the vacuum guy showed us he had a ton to “fix”..too hyped!
Love this video! It is like an informative haul that is also super influential
I could relate a lot to the Dyson vacuum SOOO much
Loved this one, yes please do a part 2!!
I loved this video! Would love a part 2❤ totally relate on the giving a trend a week or two before giving in 😅
i love my dyson ball vacuum 💙 i love my kindle too 😊
girl you are gorgeous !❤️
i really need this purse! you and taylor have convinced me lol
Those adidas are actually right up my alley, but I can see how they’re a very specific style
Hi! Could you please let me know where your kindle flower holder is from? Thank you 🙏🏼
You never run out of amazing video ideas! Love this ❤
Thank you so much!!
I ended up suggesting Vicious as your book recommendation over on Insta :)
Also, I wish we had The Woobles kit over in Australia, might have to pick up something similar/equivalent, these look so cute! Seems like a really fun hobby to get into!
Yes to a part two! I loved this ❤
