  • is HOLLISTER still cute in 2023? let's find out! (size 16 try on)
    as a millennial, hollister was EVERYTHING back in the early 2000s! in recent years, it feels like a lot of popular 00s clothing brands are making a 180 - offering more inclusive sizing (still needs work), more diverse models and branding, and better quality and pricing. is hollister still good in 2023? what do they offer for a size 16 midsize / plus size body? let's find out together! hope you enjoy xoxoxo

    These days I feel like Abercrombie is the older early 20s sister that moved to a big city and is going to grad school/getting her first job, whereas Hollister is like the little sister in high school that lives in Cali and surfs/longboards in her down time. Very much related but for sure slightly different vibes

    Such a shame that the red top didn’t work out because it’s such a perfect color for you!!! absolutely glowing, especially with your hair color

  • @BloodlyMask
    @BloodlyMask Рік тому +109

    Not sure if anyone has offered up this suggestion yet but I own a few shirts like that green crochet one and I always wear them backwards. I don't feel too comfy being that exposed in the front but I love how the twists etc. look so I just switch it around !! It'd be worth a try to see if you may like wearing it like that with a cute bralette before returning it ^6^

    1.) Red is your color omg it looks so good on you especially with your hair color!! 2.) For the blue/greenish colored crochet top you should deff keep and just wear a nude colored bandeau/tank top under it bc it looks so super cute on you and the nude color will be less harsh under it

    Also I loved the green sweater and white pants on you, so many cute looks here and I hope you’re able to size down! Maybe next time you try a new brand you can get a couple different sizes so you can accurately see what size you are and have some things fit? Just an idea, you can shop however you want and I’ll watch your videos regardless! Happy to see you this morning

    Yes to adjustable waist bands! I really struggle to find trousers that fit as I carry more weight in my tummy, and my weight fluctuates so much. If it fits my waist, it normally looks insane on my legs, and vice versa. Sick of the stigma of stretchy waist bands being for ‘older people’, not just people that want to be comfy!

    @SherryAnnOfTheWest Рік тому +3

    The green crochet "lace-up" sweater would be gorgeous over a little dress ... coverage for air-conditioned restaurants and just a cute look. I have a lot of sleeveless little "swing" dresses and sometimes I get a little chilly or the dresses are a little plain ... I love something like that sweater to complete the look.
    I love those "adjustable rise" (weird name and concept though) pants! They looked great on you.

    If I had the little tie front sweater, I'd probably put a bralette or bandeau under it that was in a complementary, but opposite color, like yellow or pink. That way it is still short, so your skin shows, but it looks like it is meant to show underneath.
