Do THIS Next Time You Have “Nothing To Wear”

- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- In today's video I'm sharing my favourite way to solve the whole "closet full of clothes and nothing to wear" problem. As they saying goes, you don't usually need more clothes, you need more ideas. This is how I spark creativity and get more fun out of my wardrobe, especially when I feel bored and spendy! Let me know if you try this!

I really love that video, please make it a serie ! I've been watching Alyssa for years because of her "Don't buy, reuse what you have to create these looks" and your video was really great/ a source of inspiration. It's super interesting to see how some small swaps can change the look/vibes and show your personnality. Keep the good content and your awesome personality :)
A tip for you guys if you dont have pants that are sinched on the bottom, you can use 2 hair ties and scrunch the extra of the pants / jeans inwards, tucking the fabric into the ties.😊
Great hack!!
why have i never thought of this. thank you
@@WeAreBullets glad to help🤗
I have made my wide leg pants into barrel with some large safety pins…spend the money on good pins.
Love it
The Matilda outfit - try ankle socks instead of no-show with chunky sneaks, a scoop neck tank or cami instead of the halter style, shorter hemline of the shorts or biker workout shorts, and KEEP the blazer.
Yes, I agree. The blazer is crucial.
I had the exact same feedback - I think it can totally work but you need to roll the shorts-legs up. The way they finished too low is primarily what threw off the proportions compared to the pinterest shot. Otherwise AWSM! :)
@@sarahreilly4013 the length was definitely too long and the waistline was too low. She needs either have the shorts tailored or to pick a different style entirely. She has a great shape but I understand how difficult it can be to dress an athletic build once you added muscle mass. It can feel a little foreign but you should adjust your attire to help accentuate your frame. You want to dress your body to create an hourglass shape/ X frame. Bottoms should hit at the smallest part of the waist. If you have tiny ankles add some “weight” by changing the type of socks or shoes you usually wear. I cannot wear ballet flats bc they look so disproportionate to my legs and body. My feet look so tiny! On the upper half, accentuate the shoulders but create a little femininity with a lower neckline. Halters are great if that is the area (shoulders) you want to showcase, then opt out of the oversized blazer and go with something more cropped. If you’re going to west the over sized blazer, definitely add a low crew, scooped, or plunging neckline. Style & fashion is an art form and it’s so beautiful to execute.
I think a series would be fantastic.
The way you made the sneaker outfit work for your body type and style was perfect.
Fellow thick thigh/glute gal. I have long legs compared to my torso (which one would assume gives a lengthening effect) and broad shoulders. However, I also have a lot of visual weight in my legs because my femurs are what gives the length and I have 20+ years of power sports stored in those muscles. I've found that a lot of trends tend to emphasize heft vs length.
I love a chunky shoe because it brings visual symmetry to my broad shoulders and glutes. But, I run into the same problem as you with chunky sneakers. What counteracts the weight of a chunky sneaker for me is keeping the ankle profile low - sneakers that stop at the widest part of my ankle (the joint itself) do exactly what you described and is what I avoid. I found the New Balance 327's give the chunky but keeps the low ankle profile of the Sambas. I also avoid dark coloured shorts/mini skirts. It just adds more visual weight to the most robust part of my legs. Lightening up the colour to reduce contrast with my skin tone in these items has helped tremendously in keeping a long visual line and reducing truncation.
I just wanted to jump in and say that to me the sneakers look absolutely fine on you :) of course the matter is how you feel in them, just wanted to point out that they don't look ugly or whatever 😊
I love these kinds of videos. They give me great outfit inspiration. Please do more 😊👍🏼
I agree.
love a good shop your closet!!
I absolutely love your videos! I’ve had a lot of fun learning how to dress well, how to zero in on buying pieces that will work with tons of outfits, and how to make outfits that are unique and “me,” without having to go buy more! Your videos make me feel not crazy because I can’t afford to go buy new clothes all the time, and have thrifted much of what I have. Your videos have helped me figure out what I actually like, declutter what I don’t, and then only buy things that will actually work with what I already own! Thanks!!!
I have loved that blazer tank and shorts look forever and the thing that railroaded it for me is that I am a pasty white little Irish rose, whose blue veins can be seen across a room. I used to fake tan, but I’ve stopped because time, mess, cost and I don’t like it, but my legs look neon white. I’ve addressed it by wearing black trainers. It breaks up the long pale leg and the black picks up the shorts. I’m a lot happier in the look work a darker shoe. I would not have believed the difference a tan makes, even if it’s faux.
Loled at blue veins across the room. Same girl same
Yes please do series! I love it
I want to add on to your point about getting a lot of comments that these are boring outfits. I feel like even those of us who like a bit more color in our wardrobe can take these looks and make them our own. I mean, I love a good all black/all dark outfit, but that first inspo picture reminded me of a similar outfit I've found on pinterest except the person used an orange blazer and dark green pants. And it still looked fabulous! I'm wondering if I can try it myself with my barrel jeans and plaid blazer...
I agree, so much. Recently when I was looking for cute Samba 'styling' and outfit inspo, I felt like a lot of them used the same colors and nothing outside of a neutral/black palette. While I like all of that, I do love pops of color and they're kind of my thing.
But then I came across a lady with a khaki blazer, concert tee, cropped jeans and bright green Sambas and it was very inspiring to me do do some similar looks with the very brightly colored Pumas I own already.
Yes to the series, this was fantastic!! Loving how your content has grown and elevated!!❤ You’re one of my favorites.
I love how you think about making an outfit that you take for inspiration “yours”. It’s very cool and interesting to watch. Please do more of these videos!❤
I love the white button down aesthetic 😍 looks great on you
Thanks for sharing the tip about searching for specific clothing items to build outfits around on Pinterest. I have boards for specific items I own such as “black and white horizontal striped skirt” “black quilted shoes” “denim skirt” “green blazer” etc where I put outfit ideas based on actual clothing items I own and want to style.
Christina, thank you! I'm spending far too much time looking at Autumn lookbooks rather than cataloguing what I actually have. I'm also very prone to wearing literally the same things, and this will be a great challenge to take on board. I'd love to see this more regularly, as I am planning to have the lowest buy year possible next year. Love from the UK.
Yay new video. I love these. It makes me actually get up and get dressed for the day. Thank you!
Christina: Thank you for the inspiration. Your content is always time well spent. Thank you also for Songmont discount. I got the drippy bag in olive suede ❤.
Olive suede, how lovely.
I did this last winter with dressy shorts and wound up wearing them SO much with black tights and boots. Most recently I've gotten so many really great styling ideas for a Samba type sneaker, dressy and casual. Honestly when I bought them (Reebok dupes) I felt cheesy but with the Pinterest ideas I've worked them into some amazing looks.
Oh, I love that look.
Hi Christina, I'm from Germany and I`ve been following you for a long time. I am currently moving into a smaller space due to termination of personal use and therefore decluttering.... Your videos help me a lot. I was actually looking for a video on how to organize a small storage room in the basement (or attic etc.) but I couldn't find anything here on your channel. In my new appartment, the basement is so tiny it's scaring the s*** out of me 😂 I need to get rid of a ton of things. I think it's really hard to decide on what to let go, especially when it comes to childhood memories or stuff that I heritaged from beloved ones...
okay, the chunky shoe thing:
(from observing bodies in figure drawing)
notice that girl's ankles, how they taper more drastically than christina's? that's why the shoes work on the other girl.
from drawing all sorts of bodies, i've noticed that not everyone has a tapered ankle like that! it's actually rare-er, even if someone is quite slender & not "big-boned", they may still have "sturdier" ankles.
THIS is why that chunky shoe thing doesn't work for everyone
Yes I’m a thicker non dainty gal haha
@@Christinamychas many people aren't able to notice the minutia of their proportions, like how many people notice their ankle to calf to knee ratio when we're so focused on other ratios?
@@lizasoliman723I'm very focused on it, having "chicken legs" 😂
@@rosej9686have you told the chickens of this compliment? ♥️
@@lizasoliman723 😄
I'm definitely shopping my closet as much as possible this upcoming Fall; however social media is tough to navigate peacefully without being bombarded by trends and opportunities to spend money.
Enjoyed this video and really liked the way you showed your modifications esp on look 3
White always looks really clean….until it doesn’t. Approx 5 min.
I gave up with 2 cats and 1 dog shedding all year round. 😅 I only have 1 off white shirt for formal occasions.
😂😂😂
This is so real 🤣
Long-time viewer, first-time commenter - just wanted to say I loved this video so much, please make it a series! As someone who really digs the sporty/minimal vibe but is also trying to look put together enough for a management role in tech, I've taken a ton of inspiration from your style evolution and the way you interpret other looks. Also love seeing Ukrainian-Canadian representation!☺Слава україні!
Love the way you do this exercise. You're very good at it!
i’ve never heard someone express how i feel about chunky sneakers so accurately 😭😭😭 i feel like i’m wearing clown shoes but they’re so cute on everyone else
The dark brown shoes look black on screen. Love all the looks.❤
Would love this to be a series. Love your style! Love use what you own. Love you sharing who inspires you.
What a great video!! Love your idea of reverse styling via Pinterest. I’m trying hard to shop my closet. Thank you for your inspiration!
I liked every outfit that you made. Even with the chunky runners. This is very inspiring and I’d love this to be a regular feature for your channel.
I love this ! Gives me so many ideas for my wardrobe ! Yes would love to see this as a series ! ❤❤❤❤
So glad! def will make a series!
Love these outfits! The first one could really make some of my typical work outfits be a little more interestingly styled.
Yaaaaaaaay these are my favourite videos !!!!! I love your ideas ❤❤❤❤
I love recreation/shop your closet videos!
Thanks for the tip to show more skin with the third type of outfit. For a long time, I tried pairing my oversized blazer with classic t-shirts, but none of the colors worked. I followed your advice and tried it yesterday with a top that has a more open neckline, and yes, that's so much better!
Your first look was one of my favourite looks you’ve ever showcased! So cool, polished and chic!
These are my favorite videos. I love watching the process of the recreation and how you might modify for what is already in your closet. Really gets my creative edge working! Thanks so much😊
Brilliant again! 👌You really nailed it! So many good outfits and it is doable for anyone. Loove this!! ❤️
Yes, series would be most welcome.
Your videos are so helpful! The way you point out details you can change to make it fit you and your style better are so helpful because they’re things I wouldn’t even think of when trying to recreate an outfit 💛 your tips have really been helping my branch out and wear more of my fun pieces
Fantastic video, you have definitely breathed new life into my wardrobe. Yeah, I love it.
If the string from the joggers is easily removable, you could definitely use that as the belt around the blazer in the first outfit!
LOVE this type of video from you. It really helps us to develop the knack for shopping our closets. ❤❤❤
Christina, I love that you don’t try to copy the examples exactly. Thank you for the inspiration. In look one I preferred the sandals on you and look three I would add a red bag for the pop of colour in place of the red shoes.
I demand a series. Scratch that, I think we all are demanding a series haha
It is most helpful and I’d love to see how you would do your winter closet too. I may be further south than you, but Lake Michigan does NOT mess around with lake-effect snow (and not to mention wind) 😅
Living in Toronto I feel you with that lake effect!
I love when you do these. Thanks for always sharing tips on how to search in Pinterest. Any additional tips would be appreciated.
Right? Am I the only person who doesn't find Pinterest user-friendly?
Great video! You did such a good job choosing wearable ways to shop your closet and yet fresh. I joined and clicked your links for the lists and IG isn't linking. Just thought you would want to know. Can't wait to see more!
What a great video, thank you! So inspiring to shop my own closet and have fun with it. Thanks for all the thought you put into making your videos, we can tell there’s a lot of hard work behind it 💛
Yes! Please make this a series! These are my favorite type of videos 😊
Sneakers and socks are a thing nowadays. The 80's gym look. Wearing no socks with the chunky sneakers doesn't look good for those who don't have fragile ankles (my ankles look like yours). So, do the 80's princess Diana look with the chunky socks and then the chunky sneakers will look a lot better.
Try the Gen Z high socks with the chunky sneakers! Fixed proportions for me, might work for you!
Loved this! A series would be great.
I LOVE that kind of video! Its so helpful to learn the "recipes" of outfits.
That songmont bag looks gorgeous 😮 glad your code doesn't expire
Omg yes, do a series!!
I’m all about the Songmont bags.
Ok so different problem, same outcome: I do always find myself going shopping or browsing websites, not because I feel I miss things in my own closet when I want to dress, but just because I love looking at clothes. Problem is: I eventually always end up wanting something when I'm trying really hard to save up some money (and reduce my wardrobe for space reasons). How do you stop this craving for just looking at pretty things 😅
Great video. Next time try the blazer shorts with the sambas! You will look great! Any way great video. Thanks a bunch.
Liked all your outfits except the last one. Have your tried a shorter short ,or a longer short?
It’s time for a pair of red shoes 👠!
Love it!! So you!!! I take pinterest inspiration and using more of what I have. Thanks!
Yes! - please do more of these videos. I really enjoy learning about the process. In your last outfit if you shortened the shorts and tapered them in - and grabbed a tank top with a lower neckline and a longer shirt, the proportions would sing! I feel this outfit is about long and loose cover-up over more form fitting and body-revealing. I would love to see that juxtaposition on you.
Walmart has ballet slippers for 12.98. I love them red, black, white, tan, and silver. Wow what a deal.
I tried those on and they're adorable. They're either for a normal foot or a narrow one. I could never wear them because they're not for wide feet.
Would love to see more of this type of video.
Apologies, I’m way off topic. But I love your text transitions. Very arty ❤ And yes, I love the Pinterest-inspired outfit thing.
I love Claudia! Thank you for showing her beautiful trees. I just started following her and I had no idea!
💚🤍🤎
I loved this video! it's great and so inspiring!
Never been this early ever! Cheers from Italy ❤
Grazie!
Love the number graphics
Love your videos...they just get better and better! Lots of great ideas. Thank you for being inspiring!
🥹🥹🥹 thank you my friend! Yay a little coffee cup! ☕️
Great interpretation. Would also look cool with an obi style belt. 😊
All excellent looks, and such a good idea! I will be doing this soon ❤ also, the sneakers look great on you but I think I know what’s happening - I definitely feel like my new balances are Kleenex on feet if I look directly down at them. You’re the only one looking down at your feet like that, they definitely don’t look the same from other people’s perspectives!
Love this video and ALL the looks good job. You should definitely wear them.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love this series!
Love this video!!! Please do more. So fun!!!
I really liked your first look. That belt makes your legs look very long and gives you a nice shape. And those sunglasses are so cool, they really completed the outfit.
I love these videos and I think you should do a series or have this be one video a month.
I like the sporty outfit better than the inspiration pic 😍😍😍
Great. I loved the first look. I didn't like the last look. The lady in the last look had a proper tan and I think without tanned legs it just looks "off". I have blue/white legs and never go bare legged without leg makeup or some fake tan. Unless I am on holiday I rarely have my legs on show.
Great video I want a follow up !!!
Yes, yes, yes to a series!
I liked outfit one! For second outfit, you could tuck half of the front if it felt too baggy.
The first out fit is great - but try moving around in that - get in and out of a car. Sit in a booth at a restaurant. And it’s just not practical the jacket would be impossible to stay put. I wish people would sit down in these- “outfits”. Be honest- you are not leaving the house in these outfits
Loved the first outfit. You looked great
Great video! AND…….you are never boring!!😍
Yes to more videos like this! ❤
I enjoyed this content. New subscriber 😊
Do you have any bold colors in your wardrobe?
I loved this video would you mind sharing what filming mode you used to achieve the side by side zoom effect
Love the button down and white jeans look. Great looks but not the chunky sneakers.
❤this series❤
Beautifull Ideas ❤
Well done, Christina!
Woahhh that duffle 😍😍
Thanks for your videos which are really, really useful. Useful seems like a boring word but as an idea, it isn't! -- Would you consider telling us your fitness story and sharing your workout(s)? As a former fit person looking to get it back, I am curious.
I have a video all about this about two videos back!
Sorry not the white!
That's my perioperative work life. Way too much like scrubs. (We obviously don't wear white though!)
I like this! I'll try your suggestions for searching--that would be helpful. BTW, you keep mentioning "work". What is it that you do?
I’m a pharmacist!
The chunky sneakers was actually nice🥹❤️ it’s just you mind 😅
