The problem is that everyone wants to stand out, but in reality there is no problem with just fitting in and dressing “normal” or discrete. Sometimes standing out isn’t always the best especially when you’re traveling. Also, everyone is trying so hard to be different that they end up looking the same. I live in NYC I see this on a daily
Very true! I always find that when a new trend comes along you see a lot of people take it to the extreme to a point where it doesn’t look good anymore.
True allot off people want to be special but in reality they dress exactly the same as there friends. This is why I try to wear what I like and not care if others wear the same or something completely different. If everyone does this than there would be allot more diversity in my opinion
Completely agree with the outfit video part. I would love to make more but I would just be showing the same outfits over and over again. Love these types of video man
Yeah for sure! Unfortunately most people don’t want to see the same outfits being worn again even though it’s realistic. Thanks Harry!
I really liked your analysis of this topic and I find that your ability to express topics that can be complex to navigate really helpful for my understanding of them. So thank you! Just wanted to say that l also always feel like I come away from your videos having reassessed my relationship with fashion/clothes for the better. Great video James!
Thanks so much Daniel!! It's truly an honour to get feedback like this, makes me feel like I'm doing something right. Have a great day mate.
Great video as always! The reason I feel as though I have not progressed in my fashion journey/evolution at all is that I admit I was way too easily influenced by the social media fashion elitists such as Alex Costa. In a way I've started to view them more as gatekeepers to the world of social media fashion than anything. Its also nauseating that every single video is basically 70% an advertisement for either their own brand or occasionally another one. On Instagram all their stories are a flex of some high end brand he's working with.
Their dominance and over saturation of content makes some other really great content creators to get hidden in my opinion.
Being brand new I figured that since he has so many followers, and likes on every single post that his style has to be the 'norm' or standard for men's fashion in general. As time went on I became more and more frustrated because I wasn't seeing any growth in my personal style as I was essentially trying to emulate everything he did and the pieces he either recommended or wore in look books that were outrageously expensive or over the top for someone just getting into fashion like myself. I also noticed that alot of other people were also stuck in the same trap as I was. Afraid to share their opposition to his style but instead in a way simped and "loved" every single thing he did without a single bit of objection which in itself is not healthy.
Alex himself always claimed that his outfits were to "just get inspiration from" but literally never gave any suggestions for affordable alternatives or gave very vague or watered down advice on how you can improve your style.
I apologize for the rant. However as I've said before I've found that channels like yourself, Harry Has, Peter Nyguen, etc to be far more informative when it comes to fashion than any of the other major channels that most new comers are thrusted upon when they first step into the world of fashion advice on RUclips that I never really got to see until I took the blinders off. I really appreciate the things you guys covered in this video that touches on issues almost exactly how I've been feeling lately.
I'm definitely going to give this channel a look as well!
I hear you mate. I think a lot of people are facing the same thing. It’s so difficult to understand what you like and know what to look for when you need inspiration because the most clicked styles will always at the top of the list and in your face when searching. It took me ages to realise what I liked and I still think my tastes are slowly developing.
Thanks for sharing your experience! Glad I can help if only a little.
@@JamesLeungAbsolutely. That is so true. I'm also glad to know that I'm not alone when it comes to that aswell. I've come to find out that when following those trends I experience a sense of fomo because I either wouldn't have the funds to buy a certain item or would still be catching up on all the trends from the previous season.
when worlds collide. I love both your channels
Thank you man!
Great discussion mate, insightful as usual. Hair’s looking great too!
Thank you bro! Haha cheers, still getting used to it. Give me some tips mate!!
I have watched this video at least three times. that is really damn good. Fashion for me is one source of being happy and comfortable. for us is opinion-exchange and diversity.
Thanks so much! Yep exactly that is one of the beauties of this industry is the diversity. And it’s amazing to be able to talk about it!
this is a very insightful video! Great job!
Glad you enjoyed it mate, thanks for watching!
ty for calling that burp out! it really isn´t funny when creators dont edit them out.
anyway haha intersting video and dope to hear your perspective on fashion.
Hahaha 🤣 thank you man!
I’ve tired to branch out of skinny jeans joggers trousers and tried to wear slim some I like but most slim jeans looks like baggy like really baggy and like I’ve given up on life does nothing for me can’t find any slim jeans or trousers that taper at the ankle any tips or places to shop
If you like skinny pants you should stick with them man! I found I like the Tony tapered pants from Weekday. They’ve a bit more relaxed but with a decent nice taper so they look fitted.
@@JamesLeung just ordered some uniclo slim jeans the salvage denim I think it’s called see where there like
In my opinion, no one should care what others think about their style as long as they're comfortable and happy with it. I can understand bloggers having a different opinion because a certain style or trend might give them more relevance. I don't even have insta or fb, it's toxic and time consuming but again that's just my personal choice lol. On a positive note, cat purr is very calming 😆
Yep exactly my thoughts Silvia!
Haha it is calming for a few minutes and then he gets really irritated and runs off. Such a weird cat but we do love him 😂
Hey James - just curious, what’s the shirt you’re wearing in the video? Looks nice!
Hey man it’s from Over Dyed (I’ll be showing more detail in an upcoming video so keep your eye out!)
I’m guilty of this following the trend its not bad but what i’ve learn through the years is its not about what you wear and its about how you wear it. You don’t need to please anyone of what you are wearing. Its your own style/outfit. Wear what you like and what makes you happy. There will always be good and bad opinions like what most people say nothing is perfect.
Absolutely mate! You can make really cheap clothes look amazing when you wear them in a certain way. And that’s another good point - there’s no point trying to please people, there will always be haters!
I agree with all your points here. Great video and I do hope you keep making more. Always here to support you mate. Been a following you since 2016 🍻

Interesting video.
Love your haircut! I'd say go even shorter for a sharper look. Keep it up!
Thanks! I probably will go a little shorter next time because my hair grows so fast!
What is your style name bro
❤
The person makes the style, not the other way around.
For sure!!
🤟
I'm not sure I understand his ultimate point. There is too much toxic positivity in fashion spaces and you need to be open to criticism to evolve your style, but also you shouldn't pay attention to social media and content that brings you new perspectives and criticism of your style. It seems contradictory. You have to get out of your comfort zone in order to evolve. That I agree with. I follow plenty of people who don't share my style because I want to expand my horizons. At the same time there are definitely people who don't want to "evolve" because they've found something that works for them. Both are valid.
Yeah I see what you mean. As with a lot of things I think a balance between the two is going to be a good way forward. Not fully one way or the other. As long as you are happy at the end and not stressing yourself out!
If u made a non coh-vid video u could pass for a grandson of John Lennon and Yoko Nono.
i think something you missed out on and ofc is also difficult to understand when you first watch his videos, is that everything he says is also satire. so the title of the video and basically everything he says most of the time goes against the very point of the video. the whole thing is a joke
Subjectiveness? What happened to subjectivity?
They're synonymous😂
My bad. Legit thought it was made up.
