![[DEBUT STREAM] It's wind-up time!! #hololiveEnglish #holoJustice](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/p_ZQs-kgUKI/mqdefault.jpg)
Brands like Lisa Says Gah are the reason people still support and buy from Shein. Why buy a $150 sweater when you can get basically the same thing made of the same material for $10?
Weoll, I happen to think Levis are the best jeans ever, with the best fit, and the best value for the money, so I dont trust this girl.
Thank you I do agree! I rather pay for natural fabrics cuz if I’m buying polyester or acrylic , I rather just buy it on SHEIN than Lisa or Roberta say goo goo gah gah
lisa says gah is very suspicious to me. i looked it up briefly bc of this comment and it says that it’s “ethically sourced” and they care about where they get things from and make a real show about choosing places that are “ethical”. i think this is why they make the garments more expensive. they also claim they prioritize “natural” and recycled materials. however, looking in their brand on the website “good on you” (perhaps not the most reliable, but a quick way to look at things), it says that they say this but have very little sources as to where they make the clothes or get the materials from (most of it is final stage of production), nor does it have a code of conduct, or evidence that the workers are given a living wage on the supply chain. i know plenty of brands such as h&m and american eagle do the same thing, claim they are doing all this for the world, but have no evidence to back it up. performative just so they can bring up the price. allegedly.
Polyester and acrylic are prettyyyyyy much the same in levels of sustainability and longevity. Just different formulas and names for plastic-based fabrics!
Honesty it’s much more sustainable to find a local vintage reseller and purchase a beautiful vintage wool sweater that will last you decades. Wool is super durable if you take care about it and is super comfortable!
I bought the butterfly cardigan. Honestly the most amazing piece in my wardrobe, no regrets.
Heck yeah!!! 🦋🦋🦋
Happy to hear that, because it looks amazing 😍
I mean, it even has 🦋 buttons. You made the right choice.
Yes! Sustainable and supports small business. Good choice!
I agree, I've never owned or wanted a designer item my entire life but those low prada loafers are gorgeous
in my girlhood experience, I had to save up for years in order to splurge on a designer item. If I had held back from buying all the other stuff I didn't need, I could have made it affordable to buy one piece for myself. :) I finally splurged and bought myself CHANEL sneakers for my 40th birthday. You ladies and gentlemen might be able to get there faster than me, DO IT. :D enjoy your life and spend your money on things you love. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my sneakers. I can not let them go. I know I will sell them and they will be hold their value. just my two cents on the internet.
I have them, bought them as a graduation present for myself. They were worth it, but very hard to break in. Once they were broken in, I feel like they go with everything.
$150 for mostly acrylic is whack🥲 I’ve thought about ordering from Lisa says Gah before bc their clothes are so cute but it does definitely give over-priced fast fashion vibes
right!! I wouldn't mind paying that for a nice sustainably sourced merino or cashmere sweater but plastic? and not even recycled plastic? nahhh
Kinda the same with some of Paloma Wool knits that are mixes of polyester and acrylic with bits of actual wool. Disappointing to say the least.
About Levi’s overalls but honestly there’s a gender divide in quality there. Obviously vintage is best, but if buying new it’s worth it to go in the men’s section for overall (heh) better quality.
I have a green checkered Lisa Says Gah tank dress that I got on poshmark for $30 and it's cute but 100% not worth the original price of $130. I have thrifted Forever21 pieces that feel to be about the same quality.
i paid full price for the green turtleneck sweater and i hate it and the way it feels so i never wear it 🙃 Definitely regret buying it
For the fuzzy jacket: polyester will form clumps over time, because it’s literally plastic that will melt with too much heat or stick together from too much friction (for example in the wash). It will probably be super soft and fluffy when you first get it, but it will probably not be durable and start to lose it’s charm very quickly…
I have a faux fur coat from Mango and it still looks as good as new. It shedded a bit when new but that happenes normally. I also think I paid for it like 50 euros or so on sale. If you follow the care label instead of the american way of doing things it should last a long time. I mostly wear fast fashion as I don't have the money to afford better. And I wear my pieces until they fall apart after a few years. How do I do it? Mom does the laundry usually but we wash clothes separately based off colour, we hang clothes to dry or in case of delicate pieces (usually my handmade wool pants etc) I hand wash them, place the items between two towels, roll them to get as much water out and lay them flat to dry so they don't loose shape. And they still look amazing as new. It's not a science making clothing last and if they fall apart so quickly it's probably that the owner doesn't take good care of them. Going back to my faux fur coat I don't wear it as much as it doesn't get as cold in Genova anymore and when I visit my dad I usually wear a puffer jacket in case it rains or snowes. But I still love it.
@@nikitatavernitilitvynova what kind of faux fur is it trying to imitate? because the commenter is talking about sherpa specifically, which many brands will even have the clumping happen while the garment is still in the store. i’m glad you are able to keep it for a long time, and if that’s what you’re able to afford then good on you (and giving tips to others), but aside from avoiding clumping, there is still other reasons to buy actual fur than faux fur. microplastics, longevity, breathability, maybe others i can’t think of rn lol. you may have been able to keep it well maintained over the past couple of years, but who is to say where it’ll be in 10… 20… 60 years even. real fur can withstand decades, if taken care of properly like you do with your jacket. again, no hate to you for buying faux fur, but you cannot say that “just taking care of it properly” will be a way to replace real fur. but i’m glad you have been able to lengthen the product’s lifespan than what it usually has, since most people’s sherpa garments look like trash in a year or less. i don’t know if your jacket is trying to imitate another kind of fur, though, so i don’t know how long other kinds of faux fur garments are supposed to last.
@@tsuki3752 I wasn't talking about sherpa but rather the faux fur you mostly see on coats that looks like actual hairs. It now dawned on me op was probably referring to sherpa. And I agree on that one. I have a sherpa set on that doesn't look that great but I don't care as I only wear it around the house anyways.
That butterfly sweater is adorable.
I’m in my 1980s/ 90s “Princess Diana off duty” phase, and that type of sweater is SUCH a vibe.
your channel is a healthy place on the internet, i love it
I'll be honest, I love Levi's and I love my denim overalls (the same you asked about). Yes some of the denim is gross and not it, but if you find the thicker denim they are beautiful in my opinion. I was able to find them being resold on depop, and the seller didn't tell me it was nwt so that was awesome. I get so much wear out of them, I love them, other people love them on me, and this was years ago when I first purchased them. Definitely agree with Alexa and wait for the sale, but I would do it 🙌🏻
My favourite pair of jeans are a thrifted levis but don't rate new ones
also a levi's girlie! i was wearing levi's as a child back in the 70's!!!
i only buy jeans from levi’s nowadays, or thrifted “vintage” ones from other brands. i mostly buy from levi’s because they fit my body the best, and i found they’re the best quality. however i’ve been a levi’s girlie for many years so i could just be used to the flaws others don’t like. another brand i used to like is wrangler (will buy them if i find them in a thrift store in a style i like) but i don’t know how they hold up today. they’re for western horse-riding sports though so i’d assume they’re sturdy. i used to wear them when i did horseback riding.
for overalls I’d have to recommend Lucy and Yak, I don’t have them myself but I have two pairs of jeans from them that I love, and I know they are sustainable, ethical and are pretty famous for their overalls specifically so they have a lot of options, also I believe they are not quite as expensive as Levi’s and that’s pretty great considering all the other positives
Uncool person here. I walk around normal roads in hiking boots a lot. They’re comfy (much comfier than my docs), but the soles definitely feel like boots and not like sneakers. If you want something that feels softer and more like a sneaker, you could consider trail running shoes rather than hiking shoes? They tend to have a similar style.
Many people in Europe wear hiking boots when they go for a walk.
Flat streets/paths, hills, or mountains, it doesn't matter.
What a cool opening line though! “Uncool person here!” I may have to use that one as I relate. Great tip too!
For the loafers I cannot recommend nothing more than Vagabond shoes! it is not a dupe even, just really great loafers, wide variety of styles, but size down, because they will widen a little over time with wear😇
So sorry you're still suffering with your migraines. Go have a well deserved rest darling xx
The Levi’s ribcage jeans have been a game changer for me feel comfortable in my body! They are very flattering on me and love the 100% cotton ones. They actually just came out with a red pair that are sailor style that I’m obsessed with. They are definitely pricey though but they always have sales! I wish I could make vintage jeans work but it’s so hard to find my exact measurements 😅
i got my levi’s overalls on major sale at nordstrom and they are my absolute favorite piece of clothing that i own. i love the loose/baggy fit in the legs and they are soooo comfortable i wear them SO much i love them
I watched a video yesterday that explained that recycled polyester fabric is mostly made from recycled plastic bottles - which means after it's turned into clothes it can no longer be recycled, and often ends up in landfill.
It shook me because I assumed it was old clothes being turned into new clothes. I don't think recycled polyester is a sustainable option, even if it has been marketed as such.
Quick note - if you like boxers but don't like the opening, can I suggest sewing down the flap?
Depends. Some brands do take old polyester clothes and turn them into new fabrics. Also it's an incredibly durable fabric that has its place in the fashion industry (it was created as a non iron fabric so it's realistically the only fabric you can use to create accordion/pleated fabrics). As long as one takes good care of their clothes they should last an incredibly long time.
As a Harley rider, my Harley boots are soooo comfortable! I used to reach for them so much more then my docs and I miss them but they fell apart over time
Anything made from synthetic fibres (such as acrylic, nylon, polyurithane [PU] or polyester) is unsustainable, even if it's recycled fibres, or blended with natural fibres. Yes, recycled polyester is better than virgin, but it's still plastic.
Sadly, very difficult to avoid, particularly when it comes to knits, anything with a comfy stretch, and underwear, due to the elastics.
Modal is incredibly sustainable and an alternative to nylon when it comes to underwear. A brand called Oysho makes sets of underwear in Modal and they're awesome.
time to knit our own sweaters then ! just kidding. but there are plenty of ways to make wool not as itchy. i’m neurodivergent so if my clothes are uncomfortable it’s all i can think about. i usually stay away from large wool garments for this reason (like sweaters) but there are plenty of methods to make wool less itchy. wool is usually itchy when you are too hot for it, or when it’s low-quality.
Lucy and Yak overalls are elite. Their Easton and Reuben styles are closer to the Levis and they are a million times more ethical and sustainable
I need to find some wide leg pants, please send me good thrift vibes!
About hiking boots for everyday wear (from someone who owns them for hiking): probably not worth it 😅. They are made for uneven and more soft terrain and can be very uncomfortable on pavement. The only one I would maybe recommend are Adidas Terrex, they have some very light ones that work for every day, travelling etc.
Agreed, they would wear out quickly on pavement. And if you ever wanted to use them as actual hiking boots, you couldn’t anymore.
Salomons are lighter in weight than Adidas and I think if the sole got Continental rubber it should be ok. I do not hike - I just want the salomons to wear them with a long skirt 👀
Salomon XT - 6 are not made for hiking, they're from the "urban" line, and they are the most comfortable sneakers for everyday:)
Agreed. I wear mine hiking, and camping. And they’ll last me for the rest of my life that way 😂
I found it quite funny to see my beloved Salomon trail running shoes become fashionable. They are so comfortable!
I really love my Steve Madden chunky black loafers!! Great dupes for the Prada, I'm a huge SM shoe girlie but once broken in in the heels area they're great imo!
I will stand by my 501 Levi’s wedgies until the end of my days. Lol. They’re still some of my favorite jeans. It’s funny because I have noticed that Levi’s has two kinds of jeans, the thick quality kind and the kind that feels like forever 21 and somehow they are priced the same?! But yeah, I love my Levi’s. That is all.
Ah wish those worked for me 😭 it definitely depends on the kind, where you buy them (the target versions feel even different), and your body shape for sure
this cardigan is so so amazing to wear for the spring
If youre looking for loose jeans in heavier denim, try out western brands! Ariat or stetson.. and mens style!
I love my levis. My denim 501 cutoffs are a staple for me and somehow look better the older they get. I think it depends on the make up of the fabric. I love the thicker non stretchy material that they offer.
Coach has an awesome alternative to the chunky black loafers. Staple I will have forever. Love them
I will say Arcana Archive is a reseller website for Asian brands. It's not a brand itself. I personally wouldn't by from them. I'd find the actual brand of the piece and search it out that way!
I was gonna say the same thing! The actual brands are way cheaper too!
this^ and you have to pay so much for the shipping but i got my star bag from frufru within literally not even a week and i live in Poland so yeah
I am trying to learn about sustainable and affordable brands so i’ve really been loving your channel! I would love to see a vid on some of your favorite more affordable sustainable brands!
maybe you can make a video on getting your clothes tailored ??
love the sustainability aspect you're bringing to this!
Fun video! This series is like your fashionable little/older sister giving you their honest opinion 😂!
As for good shoes that are a little more affordable than the Prada ones with those military-ish tough soles, I like the ones Dr. Martens makes! Like the Audrick series. Still pricey, but less so than Prada at least 🧐 but maybe they’re not as similar as I think? 😅
I got married in a second-hand Lisa Says Gah dress, but I don't think I'd ever buy new. The pieces are so cute but they're too expensive for a brand where I don't know if it's ethical or not.
im not sure if they're available in the US but this swedish brand called vagabond shoemakers make reallyyy good loafers, i believe they have chunky ones similar to the prada ones too. i got a pair of their normal loafers 2 years ago and they still look brand new (with good care ofc since they're leather)
I've ordered Selkie from Lisa Says Gah because Selkie does this thing where some of their items are only available on 3rd party shops. I got the Fraise skirt from there 100% cotton and on sale so it's may be worth checking the site for things that are not LSG brand.
Yes! I forgot to mention they sell other brands as well and I was just talking about their in house brand ❤️❤️
Ooo i love this idea! I tend to hyperfocus on something once i like it, but im also wildly indecisive and super frugal. I need the voice of reason!!
Like the things you are pointing out to consider when purchasing many people don't consider these things when looking at the pricing of items and consider items overpriced very often as they don't actually consider how thing are made and what they are made of. I am talking from a retailer's perspective and i also like to ask customers to consider how they feel in an item as i find happy customers come back. I run a preloved and handmade clothing business.
Perfect video for this spring morning before I clean out my closet 🥰
I'm an Agolde girlie, but one thing I will say is that Agolde is the only brand where I've ever had issues with the denim pulling apart. Mainly at the corners of the back pockets, but occasionally along a seam somewhere. I have a couple different pairs that have this issue. It seems like whatever process they subject the fabric to to achieve the wash is seriously compromising the integrity of the fabric, making it prone to pulling apart in high-tension areas where there's stitching. Definitely not all Agolde jeans do this, but I have at least two different pairs that have this issue.
I have the Agolde low slung baggy and some other styles I can only justify them because I love how they fit/great quality plus I wear jeans almost everyday… but I would recommend sizing down in most of their styles they seem to run big
Love the sweater you’ve got on today! Your makeup is on point.
Thanks!
There’s no way Lisa Says Gah is sustainable because they use so much plastic based fabrics. $150 for acrylic? Really?
Im so sorry you are suffering with that long of a migraine. I admire that you even filmed. I know what its like to have migraine pain (mine made me vomit continuously if on 1 side, if the other side I would be photophobic and just scream with pain.) I hope it goes away soon. Take care♥️.
They are so debilitating!! I get them every month always for 3 days (sometimes I get more than that but that's usually the minimum) so I've had to figure out ways to work through it and sometimes it will vary the severity of pain in the 3 days (this time 4) to where two days again I couldn't even open my eyes for the entire day it was so bad! ugh they are the worst! I'm working with a new doctor to try and find some relief 🥲
In bed sick after a trip to Disney world, I needed a dose of Alexa today to feel better ❤
I always love seeing your videos !!
Ahh thank you so much!!☺️
super duper informative -- absolutely need more videos like this - :D so much fun the way Alexa shares fashion tips, like totally. :D xoxo Happy Spring 2024 Sunshiners.... I agree Alexa, try before you buy. Spending money on designer shoes is like buying a car for your foot. :D its a splurge
I loveee this kind of videoss ♥♥
begging for a part three i love these (and want to see your take on my submission haha)
I can’t speak for their jeans but Levi’s has amazing jackets. I have a fuzzy one, a faux fur one, and an aviator one and they are the warmest jackets I own. I got them for $80 on Amazon but when they got to me the tags said $120. I’ve been living in these all winter. I like to go outside for my 30 minute break at work to get fresh air and read while I eat my lunch and I live in Massachusetts so I need a heavy jacket in the middle of winter and these were amazing! I was so happy I got them, it was honestly the best purchase I made all year since I wear one of them every single day (I got them in white, black, and brown so they can go with whatever I’m wearing that day) Highly recommend Levi’s jackets!
The butterfly cardigan is an absolute dream!
Okay but I did buy the blue bow sweater and I’m obsessed, not too scratchy for me! 💛
Tip for yall…uniqlo mens boxers. They come in cute colours and feel nice. I wear them all the time.
Also it’s not a sustainable option but Victoria’s Secret Pink has been putting out lounge shorts that are really cute and look like boxers. I have some black ones with strawberries on them. My mom bought me stuff from them for Christmas and I didn’t like any of it so I traded for these shorts and I love wearing them to run errands.
I am also terrified of butterflies because of this one SpongeBob episode!!! I’m so happy to not be the only one 😭
Honestly 🥴🥴 I'm thinking about just really driving home the 2016 trends coming back I've been itching for it for a hot minute too 🤣🤣 I'd even film a video on it but the self consciousness is real 🫣🫣 but yep taupie mauve matte lipstick, black ripped skinny jeans, band tees, black hair the whole thing 🤣🤣 ugh this is my time to thrive and be reminiscent and I've put zero effort....
you’ll never get anywhere if you don’t start. everyone who is successful has been in your position at one point, and pushed through it to get where they are :) just go for it, you’ll feel good!
You could do some fun DIY cardigans similar to the butterfly one with iron on patches!
I love hiking and have a few hiking shoes and I own no sneakers at all. I just wear the hiking shoes. Because they are designed for different terrains like rock, mud, grass etc. They are made to be able to withstand different grounds so they are super comfy in my opinion even on pavement! They are super versatile
Have to tried mixing the same pattern darker red gingham on top or whatever u have or bigger gigham pattern ontop
I bought the prada loafer (low, not chunky but i lowkey want the chunky too) and it's one of the best fashion purchases I've made. i've walked 30k+ steps in a day in them around the city, worn them to work, formal, casual, they go with literally everything. they hardly scuff and still look new. if you can afford it, it's 1000% worth it
I NEVER buy new denim but I got a pair of Levi's Ribcage Bells last Black Friday and they're great - good fit and sturdy. This was a direct recommendation from a friend though, so I got to see the jeans and ask her opinions about them in person.
That being said, there is a TON of nice quality denim in thrift stores and online secondhand markets. It's worth being picky and waiting to find a pair that you really love. ❣
I have the Agolde semi-low-rise baggy jeans, I did buy them full price at some Aritzia a year ago in Whistler, and let me tell you their pretty good quality. Maybe it's because of my first-time experience but I'm digging it.
I really enjoyed this video! It's like talking to a friend about fashion, which my friends are not really interested in 😊
I’ve been thinking of turning a red skirt I have into boxer style shorts 🤔 But idk if I would wear a refashioned skirt better but I’ve been seeing these shorts everywhere and I’m getting influenced and shorts are so much more comfortable than skirts.
I bought some chunky platform loafers from Aldi for $15 and they are really nice quality!
Girl go rest please just do what you gotta do to feel better okay please!!
I got a pair of black chunky loafers from Zara for under $100 that is cute and I am not paranoid about damaging an over $1000 pair of shoes
Yeah $1000 for a pair of shoes is excessive. No matter the quality. You can get really high quality shoes for a quarter of that price or less.
I got a pair of chunky loafers from Alohas last year for about the same price. I wear them several times a week, usually, and they’ve been holding up great. Chunky loafers are like my dream shoe never for $1000 😅
Yeah you’re definitely just paying the $1k for the name.
I got some loafer-type shoes over 5years ago from h&m for 30€ and they look and feel amazing still. It baffles me but I love it😂
Not sure if it’s because I’m in Europe but I’ve tried on some Levi’s that were great quality! The difference is that in the women’s section they tend to have a number with elastic in the denim which is terrible, unsustainable & fast wearing, however the solid cotton ones are great!
My husband also has like 3-4 pairs from them ranging from ten years old to less than one and loves them all, ofc none are stretch denim.
Also re the Prada loafers, also obsessed. I do have a cream coloured super cheapo pair that are two years old and still comfy and cute so I think they’re not as hard to make well as all that!
okay but those chunky loafers are super cute though 😍
I love me some overalls, one of my most go-to staples 🙂 What brand or where are the ones from that you’re wearing in this video? 🙂 I like how the excess length on the strap fabric becomes part of the detailing on the front the way you’re wearing them!
I'm interested in trying Agolde jeans, but honestly I would not buy them unless they're on a massive sale or sold second hand for much less than the original price. Buying jeans online is difficult enough and those things are p r i c e y!
I feel so seen when you said you're terrified of butterflies, because SAME GIRL
Levi overalls are great! I got mine second hand on fb marketplace for half the price! they are very flattering. Would I pay full price? no. In fact my fave pair of overalls were 20$ from fb marketplace.
On the Harley boots, I had a pair like those and they were heavy and pinched the side of my foot. I rarely wore them and had a hard time selling them.
I am more the classic style dresser or very feminin, but love thrifting and your videos 🤍🌸🪴
I just purchased some Maurice Cargo shorts and they look exactly like boxer shorts, but a cuter version.
I love that you’re like even though I have two pairs of docs. I have 20😭😭🤣
FINALLY someone said it about Levi’s 😭
If anyone is looking for comfortable wide legged jeans/baggy jeans that are high waisted and fit really well on the stomach hands down the best are the style called Claire by Tommy Jeans. I own one pair I got last year on sale for 50% off. I might get another pair maybe even on their site (I know my size as I got the other ones in store) when they go on sale. They retail for about 110 euros but on sale I got mine for around 50 euros. And they look as good as new except the bottom is all distressed because I like the puddle jean look and I got these in a 32" inseam. I'm not sure but I believe their brand is also stustainable too.
Yes slay eyebrows!
Girl I’m scared of butterflies too!
Hiii, I don’t know if you’re familiar with Olivia Rodrigo, but she’s on tour at the moment. And I’m over here putting together outfits for her concert, even though she has not announced that she’s coming here yet😅 I just need to vent this to someone that will get this 😅
Honestly I think free people has the best denim quailty
I love how you say "dawk mar'nz" for doc martens :)
Yeah idk about it girl trends honestly like I've liked the same stuff since I was 13 🤣🤣 just wear what makes you comfortable and happy trends die so fast
The hiking shoes are a staple of boomer parent style in Germany / Europe 😅
Advice for people wanting designer items but can’t afford - go to the store and try it on. You might find you actually don’t even like how it looks on you. I went to the Prada store in Vegas to try on the loafers(knowing full well I wasn’t going to buy regardless) and they just didn’t look as great as they thought I would (on me). In fact I would venture to say most trends or items we covet likely wouldn’t bring as much joy as you think it would! Either they don’t go with our personal style or just don’t look right.
I dont think it's a coincidence thrift stores dont have baggy pants rn...i think they make a pact or whatever with the fast fashion stores to not put out trendy items like tht so the fast fashion stores dont lose sells...just a wild guess but could be as a lot of them are connected.
I have been looking for a good pair of overalls for literally over a year and I still haven't found any. I've looked in thrift stores, winners, old navy, and even fast fashion brands but I can't find any in store for the life of me. And i'm not even talking a good pair, there are NONE. (I won't buy them online because for me it's very important to try them on to see the fit before buying them.)
Also, as somebody who has to wear loafers as part of my school uniform everyday, I absolutely hate the look of every single loafer i'm sorry 😭 The ones I have were pretty cheap though, so maybe that's why they look bad. Loafers that have a little bit of a heel look a bit better to me but they really don't aline with my personal style. If you like the look and know how to style them correctly then go for it though lol
I own two pairs of vintage Levi's 501s (straight leg cut) and they're probably my favourite pieces in my closet. My first pair was my mum's from the 90's and it's incredibly comfortable, yet still thick and well-made. A few weeks ago, I thrifted another pair for only 20€ in a lighter wash too. Unlike many other denim brands, Levi's seems to pay attention to small, but important details. For example, the angling of the pockets, the fly not being exposed or bunching up, when I sit down and the inseam being just right. However, I have never bought anything new from them or even stepped foot into their stores, so it is possible that like many other brands, they have faced a quality decline.
The anthro pai5of boxer, the 2 pics look 2 different lengths!
i previously worked for a brand that was sold on LSG and it was fast fashion and not sustainable at all.
I literally hate all jeans that are not Levis. They are the only jeans that feel right, and fair right, and they never make a bad model. I have purchased much more expensive jeans, and never wear them, because the Levi's end up being better. They know jeans. And those overalls look absolutely perfect, I have node what this lady is all about. Maybe you got the cheap ones. It sounds like it, because the premium Levis cost more then 80 dollars.
I definitely think it depends on preferences and also possibly body type and the way you like jeans to overall lay on you for sure
Yes those boxers r u BUY THEM
can't relate to getting wear from jeans. my legs have higher standards for comfort!
if she doesn't mind buying new I bought my Levi shortalls at Ross for $14.00
is acrylic even better than polyester?
both are unsustainable, but can have a different feeling to the touch
Is Anthropologie considered fast fashion? 6:59
Yes, although definitely not ultra fast fashion like SHEIN and Temu
