i love how you do "thrift with me" videos, but also emphasize not buying just for the sake of buying to actually be sustainable!! also its so kind to leave things that don't fit you even though you love them, so they'll find a home with people that they will fit. i'm guilty of buying oversized things that don't fit just because i love them, but i'm inspired by your empathy and kindness!! you are so amazing!
Hi - I enjoy your videos and especially appreciate your consistent messaging for people to wear what they want and please themselves first, regardless of a trend.
If I find a cute or trendy item in a thrift store that is not in my size or not my style, I put it somewhere on display, so that sb else can find it. Sometimes I keep observing and feel happy, if it's been picked up❤
The long blue dress with tie-back.... I just thrifted almost the same dress earlier this week!!! We are still in minus temperatures, but I put it on with black tights, combat boots, a long sleeved fitted t-shirt under and a blazer👍 Totally in love with it!!❤
That long pinstripe blazer is everything! It's something I never would've considered a couple of years ago but right now I'm loving a more tailored look
I LOVE the quilted jacket. I believe that's a bed jacket or house coat but since it's shorter I would go with bed jacket. Those are one of my fav things to thrift. It would be really cute over the white dress you just got as well. Kind of a layered babydoll look!
i would love to see you style a pink slightly sheer slip dress. I just got one thinking it was so cute but didn't realise how difficult it is to layer T_T I love the miss elaine classics gown thing and the quilted jacket! I'm so glad you got them
the 90's/early 2000's (not y2k but like the outfits i remember my teachers and my mom wearing) style you've got going on is like perfectly suited for you!! it's cute and cozy and nostalgic :')
I have always been ahead of the trends. Back in the 80s, I ran into a convenience store just to grab some milk in my sneakers and housecoat. The clerks literally laughed out loud as I turned to leave. I am watching for my wide legged bell bottoms that I added inserts in the sides, like bandannas, to trend again soon. I also wore the same colored bandannas as tops by tying it around the waist and adding a string around the neck area to hold it up. 😄
Other than the iconic intro song, I think my fav parts of your videos are the snippets you pick for right at the beginning 😂 always 🥇 hope you have a fabulous week!
So glad you got that turquoise quilted tie-up jacket! As soon as you tried it on I was like "YES" then you said it was a maybe and I 😟😯🥺But you got it, yay!
The energy of this thrift trip is me trying to decide on buying anything at the store 😂🖤 love what you ended up with the green crop tee will be a great staple
OMG that quilted jacket is +A-mazing, such a great statement piece, i get so excited spotting it in your cart, and almost sad when i realised i cannot purchase it cause i'm watching a video and it is not my cart 😅
it's a little funny to me to see people who get excited about harley t-shirts but are like nah moto jackets aren't for me. totally legit opinion of course, just funny to me (probably partially because i don't see the appeal of a harley t-shirt but i love a nice moto jacket)
Fit is a huge part also. Like I can appreciate the look of a moto jacket on someone else, but for my shape, the straight up collar is unflattering. Also, some people like a solid color more, while moto jackets have those stripes, logos and patches.
@@alexasunshine83 😘Love moto gear like Harley tee or moto boots👍, but I'll never own another biker jacket. 🎁Got one in late 80s, but eventually had to pass it on. It was cool, & heavy, but not something that I personally got a lot of wear in 😎So Cal. Plus, shorter jackets don't necessarily hit me right🥺. Mine stopped just at the top of my hips. Felt like the hem was announcing: "TaaDaa...Here are HIPS!" As an hour-glass, I hate putting the 👁👁focus on that part of my anatomy. My flat (now practically nonexistent) behind & wider hips are 🚫 worthy of attention. If you must look at something, my small waist is a far better focal point. Great finds🛍 ! You looked awesome in everything! The purple top, blue floral dress & pinstripe jacket were my faves on you. Trinny of London joked it's a Cacket (coat+jacket) or Clazer (coat+blazer). Something you can keep on indoors. It's very flattering. Liked the gray with the pink skirt too...subtle print clash👏. It's so RARE to find a 🆒️ lightweight coat at that length. 🤗You can flout visual fashion "rules" to slim & elongate your frame bcos of your darling figure. The rest of us need to use every 🪄trick in the book to look our best. Wearing jackets with midi & maxi skirt lengths can be tricky😂. The longer your skirt⬇️, the better to go w/a cropped cardi or short jacket⬆️. Or, keep your jacket hemline longer⬇️ than your hem (or within a 🤏few inches of it). These options are 💯% more flattering than tossing on a blazer that hits you in your hips or top of your thigh😔. Plus, people ought to consider proportions ⚖️. If your skirt is long & slimmer, you can choose a more boxy jacket or jumper. If you pick a sweater, need to french tuck to raise⬆️ the focus👀 back to waist. If your skirt is fuller & adding extra volume, choose a more fitted or tailored top or jacket. Lastly, you can use the gray coat as a topper layer like a trench. Just need to corral a bit of the ⬅️volume➡️ in back. Since there's no sash🎀 to do that, you can get those elastic squares with a clip↔️ on each end that can grab excess fabric in the back. Enjoy! 💚Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)
Love a moto jacket shape in sweatshirt cotton fabric. The look without the weight, stiffness and leather smell near the face! Also great for warm weather climates.
The items that for you are, "I like this, but it’s not my size" or "This is great, but I already have something similar" like the floral skirt or denim vest would be great grabs for future Alexa Style giveaways!
okay i’m not a paid ad or anything but i actually really like the casetify cases. literally my iphone 13 with a casetify case+screen protector fell out of a truck and got run over multiple times and was completely fine!!!
First and for all: I love yout green and white cardigan! That yellow striped T would look grate on you! I love a long floral skirt That litle white dress is adorable! Yes love the blue jacket I m on the hunt for a dark floral long dress I LOVE the long grey blazer, I m jealous Grate finds and video X
I have a very different style than you, but this is still one of my favorite channels because of your personality! I believe I heard you say at one point that you have OCD, and if that's correct than it makes this channel even more comforting to me since I have it as well, and it's nice to see others with it enjoying themselves and staying kind and positive in spite of it. You're just such a sweet soul and I love watching your videos when I need to wind down. Thank you for another fun one!
You make me so happy Alexa! We don't have very similar style (I'm more of a goth, motorist + classical Greek inspired) but I love thrifting and I loooove your videos.
Great haul! I LOVE the color of the t-shirt, it's so unique. Also, you surprised me with the very long blazer, this color really suits you imo. And of course, the long purple-ish dress and the short white dress with the tie straps are so you.
How cool you're wearing the "Dude" Danny Lasoski race tee! I live in Knoxville Iowa and just had the Nationals here last night! Just saw the dude at our local store the other day and spoke with him! Love racing 🏁
Everything on your list is stuff that was fashionable in my area in 2008/9ish I had ALLL that stuff! It's so crazy to me that it's back coz it reminds me of that time and is so ugly to me now 🤣 altho the slip dresses are a new thing to me and I loveeee them!!
I think the lace long sleeve shirts would be so cute with like a white tee or tank and blue high waisted shorts and Mary janes with white frilly socks or even white cow boy boots?

Hi - I enjoy your videos and especially appreciate your consistent messaging for people to wear what they want and please themselves first, regardless of a trend.
honor yourself - self love is so powerful :D
I swear anything 90s looks like it was made for you😍😍

Same! It makes me so happy
I love the blue maxi dress with the yellow flowers. And that grey long light jacket. Love it! !
Wow the gray blazer is amazing! I can’t imagine I’ll find something like that at the thrift store, might have to sew one!
Got my fingers crossed for you !!!
The long blue dress with tie-back.... I just thrifted almost the same dress earlier this week!!! We are still in minus temperatures, but I put it on with black tights, combat boots, a long sleeved fitted t-shirt under and a blazer👍 Totally in love with it!!❤

Please do a video how you would style outfits for the coquette or dollette aesthetic 🤍
I love the grey blaser !!!! It fits perfect on you
I literally gasped at the blue quilted jacket - so gorgeous! 😍
That green blocked cardigan you’re wearing is soooooooo gorgeous also love all the things you thrifted
That long pinstripe blazer is everything! It's something I never would've considered a couple of years ago but right now I'm loving a more tailored look
Yes! It’s such a beautiful addition to an outfit!
so happy you get the gray long jacket , looks good on you , now it is on my shifting list .
Could you make a video on jewelry and accessories and your collection? I always find myself staring at your necklaces!
I love how excited you get for others to pick up pieces you found! It's so sweet to hear you say how amazing the piece will look on them :)
right its fun to break the ice and have small chat with the community.

pin stripes are a favorite

My fav Sunday routine these last few years. A hearty breakfast, steeped tea and your new video. Here's to Sunday Funday.
So glad you got that turquoise quilted tie-up jacket! As soon as you tried it on I was like "YES" then you said it was a maybe and I 😟😯🥺But you got it, yay!
I loooove the carhartt top, especially the way you styled it with the blue shorts. Also the grey pinstripe blazer fits you so well 💗
The energy of this thrift trip is me trying to decide on buying anything at the store 😂🖤 love what you ended up with the green crop tee will be a great staple
you look so gorg in this video! I looooove the blue jacket, you look so lovely in bright colors!!
Girl, the gray jacket is sooooooo CHIC. That was my favorite purchase of yours 😍
Oh, I am HEARTBROKEN that you didn't buy the dress at 13:14 - it's so cute!!! 🥺
Yes! I was like "please get that!" It looked so good on you.
The shirt you’re wearing when talking about casetify… that’s seriously the best shirt I’ve ever seen 😭😭😭 I need it so bad haha
Got it on depop or Poshmark I think! The brand is the mountain!
@@alexasunshine83 I will, thanks!!
Great video! The color of your quilted shell is literally my fave color blue 💙 😅
I was surprised you didn't pick up the black square neck dress. It was really pretty.
I love your kitten T-shirt you were wearing during the sponsor portion of this video. 😻
The blue / teal tie jacket is so freakin cool and very unique. Almost on-trend but not totally on the nose. Such a good find!
I love the sequins dresses. Literally gives off Harry Styles and Taylor Swift vibes 💞💞💞💞💞💞💞
