Exactly how I felt. I don’t care about being an « it girl » anymore 😂 Maybe not having TikTok is also a part of why I don’t know these brands. I don’t hate the app but I never wasted so much time doing nothing so I had to stay away
Btw just a side note when you are shopping from a european brands you need to go up a size or two because you got EU42 which is EU XL but equivalent to US 10 or 12 depending on the brand.
The skirt from Lisa Says Gah is very cute, but come on it is made from polyester! There's no justification for a price this high with a polyester skirt cause that's basically plastic😅
i don’t want to love reformation because of the price, but the few dresses i have from them are my most complimented pieces in my wardrobe. they just fit and are so flattering and nice.
Agree! I wore a Reformation dress to a wedding and I was worried I was getting more compliments than the bride! The construction and fabric quality to make me happier to pay a bit more, but they are still super expensive.
I personally could NEVER justify paying full price for any of these brands. So I glad you got many of these pieces from thrift websites. I think it would be cool if you did a video for online thrifting!
I feel like my biggest takeaway from this video is that I’m going to continue to buy things secondhand. Yikes! These were too expensive for my bank account. Thanks for the cute outfit inspired though!
I think it would be so fun to do a sequel of this with like it girl outfits using affordable clothing or secondhand clothing! It girl is totally a state of mind
I feel like It Girl brands are always just about people showing off that they have a lot of money to spend on their clothes. Perhaps this is trauma from growing up working class in an upper middle class area, where the other girls in school DEFINITELY liked to show off their expensive trendy clothes, and I was wearing exclusively TJ Maxx.
And these clothes are not even nice or original. Nothing new. Made of synthetic materials. And in general - it girl is a mockery of the word "style". In my opinion, it is tasteless
The orange dress is giving me street wear vibes! Would love to see it with a bucket hat, some funky sunnies, your dunks, a little cross body and a denim jacket! The orange color just looks great on you too! Thank you for trying all these brands for us! 😊
i’m seeing a little style shift back to your 90’s era (from when i first starting watching your videos a few years ago!) and it’s making me feel so nostalgic 🥰
I know you’ve probably have mentioned this before in a video, but I really love and appreciate the mirror reflection in the videos! It shows the outfit unposed from Another angle. It makes me in vision myself in that outfit before I consider buying it. Keep doing what you are doing!!!!
Okay but these are so cute 😍. Nothing like a great thrift find! Bought reformation for my med school grad dress and died at how expensive. But felt cute all day and so glad I did.
I own a couple of GANNI pieces, bought them second hand or on sale. And Yes, they are pricy, BUT i thought a lot about them before I bought them and I wear them all the time!!!! And I love them so much. I think they are 100% worth it, because I think it’s better to buy much less then to buy a bunch of cheap clothes that you only wear a couple of times.
I think is nice that you tell us what you "feel" about the fabric texture but it would add something extra if you read the label and tell us the composition of the garment. Is it polyester, cotton, linen, spandex? I believe that also affects a lot the price of this pieces. Just a random thought.
I SPRINTED to antrho after your short of the Wrenly set and I love it! I'm normally a L and I sized down to a M based on your short and it fits spot on! 💞
Also, idea.... passé "it girl" brands. Like it girl brands that aren't "in style" anymore, have they kept up? Do they still carry cute stuff? Can they make an it girl comback if the girlies give them a chance?
also wanted to note how like UNSUSTAINABLE it is to have your items be dry clean only ….. dry cleaning is horrible for the environment so it doesn’t quite add up. not the consumers responsibility but it’s lazy on the brand end to not just test their fabrics/pieces with washing techniques so that consumers can care for items properly
the reason rayon is listed as dry clean only is bc it shrinks to hell when it goes thru the dryer. HOWEVER i have found if you just rewet it and let it hang dry or steam it, it stretches back out and theres no issues
love the vid! but the clothes you got weren’t really trendy, which is what i was expecting when watching a video about trendy brands. especially the first top lol. maybe another vid like this? trying more trendy/it girl brands with items that are actually popular!
I think sometimes we trick ourselves into linking things because the price tag says "LUX!!!" even when the real life item says "meh". ...so are these things nice BECAUSE they are designer or do you really think you're getting girl boss vibes ?
Will you do a video of getting items tailored? I feel like the reformation dress would’ve looked better altered to your body. It could be a collab with sierra.
If what you showed is the actual blouse that you purchased, than yeah it's a size too small. European size 42 is a 10 or 12 in US sizes, depending on the country. But it looks very cute though 😅
Somehow Reformation always seems like a scam to me lol. The prices are SO HIGH and then the products aren’t made of natural materials and the quality just isn’t there. The items I’ve tried have always been disappointing. I’d highly recommend Doen. They have similar styles, better quality and material and somewhat extended sizing!
You look so good in the orange dress! And I love love love the cowboy boots with it, but I also think that platform sneakers and a black cross body bag would totally give sporty spice vibes
You’re my fav RUclipsr! The only one that I watch every single one of your videos and feel like we’re just friends on ft. I really really miss your blogs!! Ok love you bye💕
I like the white floral dress exactly the way it is but maybe with a broche or a safety pin to make the cut a little less! Shorter length and sleeves would look ugly
I would love to see you do a "must have" undergarments try on of brands that you are currently wearing, especially for your anti-chafing shorts and a try on for popilush. I have been trying to find anti chafing shorts that work for my size 14 body, but haven't been very lucky in that department. Also want to buy a popilush dress, and now they have an athleisure bodysuit, but I'm a little skeptical. Please please please!!!!
That orange dress looks amazing on you!! Imagine it with a little cropped jean jacket and some white sneakers!!
Lol, I just commented that she should try white sneakers as well!
I thought about a Jean jacket as well!!!! :)
agreed, this dress on her is a MOMENT
I was thinking jean jacket and sneakers too!! I'm obsessed with this orange dress on Carrie!
agreed!
How to know if you’re NOT an “it girl”
1. not knowing 99% of the brands.
100 %
Exactly how I felt. I don’t care about being an « it girl » anymore 😂 Maybe not having TikTok is also a part of why I don’t know these brands. I don’t hate the app but I never wasted so much time doing nothing so I had to stay away
I was just about to say I have never heard of any of these brands lol
I work for Anthropologie and my team made the suspender/bandeau set! Looks so so cute on you!
So cool!!! That must be so awesome to see your work out in the wild
omg that's amazing! i love it so much!! GREAT WORK LOL🤎
make things for tall people!! that set is short on her and Im 3 inches taller LOL

i don’t want to love reformation because of the price, but the few dresses i have from them are my most complimented pieces in my wardrobe. they just fit and are so flattering and nice.
I agree. I think it's important to know what fits are best for your body type too.
Agree! I wore a Reformation dress to a wedding and I was worried I was getting more compliments than the bride! The construction and fabric quality to make me happier to pay a bit more, but they are still super expensive.
You’re the adult Lizzie McGuire fashion icon I never knew I needed. Not me running to buy the Lisa says gah skirt. Consider me influenced
this is a greater honor than you will ever know!!!! 💞
I personally could NEVER justify paying full price for any of these brands. So I glad you got many of these pieces from thrift websites. I think it would be cool if you did a video for online thrifting!
That orange dress was STUNNING on you. You should definitely keep and wear that!!
The Miaou dress looks incredible!
If a company can’t be size inclusive in 2023, I’ll spend my money elsewhere.
Literallyyyyy. I just wanna fuckin wear Aerie 😭

Love that you got most of them second hand. I just wanted to say the ORANGE DRESS. That dress is made for you.

I think they’re just brands who spend their marketing budget on paying the “it girls” to wear and promote their stuff. Could be wrong though
And these clothes are not even nice or original. Nothing new. Made of synthetic materials. And in general - it girl is a mockery of the word "style". In my opinion, it is tasteless
My jaw DROPPED at the orange dress omg Carrie you look incredible!!
That orange dress is it 🔥🔥🔥
The orange dress is giving me street wear vibes! Would love to see it with a bucket hat, some funky sunnies, your dunks, a little cross body and a denim jacket! The orange color just looks great on you too! Thank you for trying all these brands for us! 😊
💯 bucket hat
I like that orange dress but I wouldn’t pair black shoes or boots with it, too Halloween.
White shoes or a fun contrasting colour would be sweet!
The orange dress is AMAZING on you but the cowboy boots are not for me in the slightest. I think sandals, even your dr martin sandals would be ✨️✨️✨️
Or the white cons you're wearing in the following clip!
The orange dress is truly sporty spice vibes!!! Looks so great!!!!!!
i’m seeing a little style shift back to your 90’s era (from when i first starting watching your videos a few years ago!) and it’s making me feel so nostalgic 🥰
Love the orange dress!! I think it would look super cute with some white sneakers, like airforces
Carrie out here showing her "BADDIE " side ; go Carrie!
the orange dress is GORGEOUS!!!! The fit the color 🍊!!!!
I know you’ve probably have mentioned this before in a video, but I really love and appreciate the mirror reflection in the videos! It shows the outfit unposed from
Another angle. It makes me in vision myself in that outfit before I consider buying it. Keep doing what you are doing!!!!
The orange dress is giving me spice girl vibes and I am here for it!
Okay but these are so cute 😍. Nothing like a great thrift find! Bought reformation for my med school grad dress and died at how expensive. But felt cute all day and so glad I did.
Congratulations on med school ❤
@@VRwarrior Thanks 💗
I honestly think the xl in the brown fit looked better. It had the relaxed cozy look
Carrie, you are simply so beautiful, inside and out! Love how you styled these pieces
This is SO NICE 😭🩷 thank you so much!!
The orange dress is hot ❤🥵 I would wear my platform, high top, white converse. I think the black just looks weird with the orange.
that orange dress looks so good on you!!! 🧡
Girl! That orange dress is everything on you! Gorgeous!
that orange dress iS EVERYTHING ON YOU!!!!!!!!! the color is such a tough one to wear but damn you pull it off flawlessly.
that orange dress is EVERYTHING
Anthro will always be my dream shopping place. I just love how the clothes fit and feel. Thank you for including it in your list!
ORANGE DRESS IS SO AMAZING ON YOU ❤️🔥🧡
That orange dress GIRL SLAYYYYY QUEEN
Omg the orange body con dress looks AMAZING on you!!!! And the reformation dress is honestly a dud in my opinion :/ they are so overrated
100% agreed!
I can't wait to see how many ways you style the orange dress!!! I adore it on you! You're so stunning! 😍
Just moved to a new city where I know no one, and binging your videos has really been helping with my homesickness! Love all your vids!!
I own a couple of GANNI pieces, bought them second hand or on sale. And Yes, they are pricy, BUT i thought a lot about them before I bought them and I wear them all the time!!!! And I love them so much. I think they are 100% worth it, because I think it’s better to buy much less then to buy a bunch of cheap clothes that you only wear a couple of times.
The first blouse, size 42 is a us size 10. It’s cute though.
I think is nice that you tell us what you "feel" about the fabric texture but it would add something extra if you read the label and tell us the composition of the garment. Is it polyester, cotton, linen, spandex? I believe that also affects a lot the price of this pieces. Just a random thought.
She read the label at 11:35
I don't usually comment but OMG, that orange dress is STUNNING on you....wow!! ❤😊 xx
love the orange dress! Honestly, you always look good in body con.
The orange miaou dress is AMAZING! Not feeling the boots with it but definitely was made for you 😊
The orange dress is great! White sneakers please! But style is your own choice , like you said ❤
I SPRINTED to antrho after your short of the Wrenly set and I love it! I'm normally a L and I sized down to a M based on your short and it fits spot on! 💞
Orange dress with the cowboy boots is EVERYTHING
It’s been a while since I caught up on your videos but I have to say, I love your current filming set up! The background is super cute!!
Also, idea.... passé "it girl" brands. Like it girl brands that aren't "in style" anymore, have they kept up? Do they still carry cute stuff? Can they make an it girl comback if the girlies give them a chance?

that orange dress!!! 😍😍😍😍
I’ve never been so early! Excited for this video! I’ve been so curious about these brands
I hate word "girlie". It's million time wors then "moist". 😓
THAT ORANGE DRESS AHHHHHH I'm OBSESSED!!! You look amazing!!
The orange dress looks SO good on you I legit gasped. And with the cross body bag and white button up?? A look for sure
The ORANGE DRESS was perfection on you. Loved the first two outfits as well.
love the vid! but the clothes you got weren’t really trendy, which is what i was expecting when watching a video about trendy brands. especially the first top lol. maybe another vid like this? trying more trendy/it girl brands with items that are actually popular!
Girrrrl you ATE that orange dress up!!! It looked so good on you!!
Carrie! You look bad ass in everything! But I agree in your Reformation decision. You can find 5 cute dresses for the price of that one.
orange dress with a chain belt and boots would have me GAGGED!!
Obsessed with that brown Anthro set. I NEED to get my hands on it! But you’re right, it’s on back order until August 😭
Love the orange dress on you! I’d love to see it with some other shoe style, maybe chunky white sneakers? Anyway, keep the dress!
omg that lisa says gah skirt is so precious and i love it and want it!
The orange dress and the flower skirt look super cute!
dressing down the orange dress with the white button up and your dunks would be 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Carrie, your hair is giving young Taylor Swift. This is a high compliment!! Also every outfit is giving!!!!
I think sometimes we trick ourselves into linking things because the price tag says "LUX!!!" even when the real life item says "meh".
...so are these things nice BECAUSE they are designer or do you really think you're getting girl boss vibes ?
Will you do a video of getting items tailored? I feel like the reformation dress would’ve looked better altered to your body. It could be a collab with sierra.
That orange Miaou dress. Looks f***Ing amazing on you, Carrie! I hope you keep it and wear it!
If what you showed is the actual blouse that you purchased, than yeah it's a size too small. European size 42 is a 10 or 12 in US sizes, depending on the country. But it looks very cute though 😅
that orange dress is FABULOUS!
Somehow Reformation always seems like a scam to me lol. The prices are SO HIGH and then the products aren’t made of natural materials and the quality just isn’t there. The items I’ve tried have always been disappointing. I’d highly recommend Doen. They have similar styles, better quality and material and somewhat extended sizing!
i want sooo many pieces from Doen's summer drop omg its all GORGEOUS!
Viscose is a natural material. It's literally wood pulp
You look so good in the orange dress! And I love love love the cowboy boots with it, but I also think that platform sneakers and a black cross body bag would totally give sporty spice vibes
The orange dress looks absolutely amazing! 😍🙌
I lovee how you styled each piece! Its giving me life!
You’re my fav RUclipsr! The only one that I watch every single one of your videos and feel like we’re just friends on ft. I really really miss your blogs!! Ok love you bye💕
I like the white floral dress exactly the way it is but maybe with a broche or a safety pin to make the cut a little less! Shorter length and sleeves would look ugly
My dog could sew that LSG skirt.
I love that skirt. I think it would be perfect for fall and winter. Tights and combat boots with that cute skirt would look so good!
That orange dress is absolutely stunning on you! You look amazing in it!🔥
The cute black skirt is so great. I think you could sew some black lace onto the bottom to make it a little longer. You look great. Blessings to you
I LOOOOOOOVVVVVE!!! the orange dress, period.
I'm not a plunging v girlie myself, but tht flowery white dress made your girls look great. The orange dress though. 🔥
I want that butterfly top.
ok but i loveeeeee the thumbnail on this one, carrie!! editing slay
Omg thank you so much!!! 🫶
THAT ORANGE DRESS ON YOU OMG
The orange dress is soooooo cute!!
THE ORANGE DRESS 😍😍😍
I would love to see you do a "must have" undergarments try on of brands that you are currently wearing, especially for your anti-chafing shorts and a try on for popilush.

Also want to buy a popilush dress, and now they have an athleisure bodysuit, but I'm a little skeptical. Please please please!!!!
You should get the reformation dress hemmed to fit you how you like!! It is BEAUTIFUL on you.
Snaps for that orange dress
The orange dress looks great and very summery! I’ve never heard of this brand
I’ve tried Lisa Says Gah through Nuuly and omg their sizing is soooo small! That skirt is so cute though, great video!
That orange dress is EVERYTHING on you. Period. Had to get that off my chest lol
The miaou dress is incredible on you!!
YOOOOO THE ORANGE DRESS 😍😍😍😍😍
I know you're not a bodycon girly but omggg i love on you so much
