There really is no need to apologize for being unable to physically do something. If you want to explain that is your choice. But it really isn't anyones business. And let's be honest who cares how anyone pronounces things ,as long as you can make yourself understood you're good. And individual differences are fun, I like listening to you just the way you are
Agreed. And I'm unclear on the g thing. My ears are not detecting any g anomalies. What g thing are people even hearing. A mystery.
@@EdwinaGolden "spreen" instead of spring, "geenam" instead of gingham. I feel badly she felt she had to address it though! I thought it was probably just a difference in accent. We all knew what she meant.
i totally agree. and as a non native speaker i love hearing different Version of pronounciation.
Linguistics student here! What you describe seems to happen only once G is preceeded by an N. This is not a pronunciation anomaly, but rather the natural need your vocal aparatus has to make things easier to pronounce, so the G and N in spriNG and giNG melt together into one new sound. This kind of merge of two sounds into one is called a diphtong, this specific one (N+G) is very common in germanic languages... and, surprise surprise, English is a germanic language.
TLDR, don't worry!
thats funny that its considered easier because in german some people pronounce a g after an n even when there is none, especially when its borrowed words like cousin and bonbon
Linguist number 2 here - it’s called G-dropping. It’s common in many dialects of American English and very emblematic of the Chicanx English dialect of SoCal. Since Alexa grew up in SoCal, like me, where Chicanx/latinx communities represent a majority of the population, it totally makes sense that she drops her G’s.
@@lowercasesncapitals795 linguist 3, i came to say the same thing! her phonology is very californian lol
@@lowercasesncapitals795 so cool! Hahahah
@@avr7120 True! But also notice in one-vowel, native german words like Ding, ging, etc. the n and g tend to melt into one
I’ve always loved the way you say your g’s. I think it’s so cute!
spreen
I agree! I think it's very endearing.
I think cottage core dresses look good with flats or sandals or some more girly sneakers with cute socks. Or something with a small, chunky heal or platform.
I love them with little Keds style sneakers!
I agree! I also think a pointy mule can be good for a fancier occasion.
I was coming to say this same thing: I think the feature that ties in the shoes can rest almost solely (haha) on the socks. frilly socks with the D Marten loafers could be the key
'And I dislocated one of my toes
by kicking
a book
because I was dancing with myself'
I had to pause the video and comment, because I listened to that bit twice and it made me laugh out loud both times. You're awesome, Alexa. There was the sunshine!
I also decided to (mostly) ignore what's trendy this year.
This is my spring and summer thrift wishlist so far:
- Cigar pants
- Disco pants
- Off the shoulder shirt
- Polo shirt, that I was lucky enough to thrift last week
- Crochet Top
- Collar dress
as someone who uses a lot of public transport, also in the summer heat, the thought of a backless top makes me retch 😅
alexa, we appreciate you for your style, creativity, and kindness, weird g's and all 😃 always just assumed it was a california pronunciation thing lol
It's still a little chilly where I live, so I've been wearing a pullover sweater. I know it might not be everyone's taste, but I have been loving quarter zip sweaters thrifted from the men's rack. They are so cozy. I wear dresses a lot and I like to wear something a bit masculine to balance it out. So I have thrifted men's clothes also in my wardrobe.
I love that look too. ♥
This sounds so so cute! I may have to try it with my dresses from past years and a quarter zip I already have. Thanks for the inspo!
Unless there is snow or ice on the ground, I shall be found in sandals. Sandals are peace. Sandals are love. Sandals are joy.
I have had chest and back acne for 16 years (I'm 27 now). Creams, antibiotics, birth control, accutane, etc., and it never fully went away. I totally get it. It can take such a big toll on self-esteem, especially in outfits that show it. Currently, differin and the Neutrogena stubborn acne body wash are keeping it under control. I'm trying to go into Spring/Summer with a more confident mindset to wear what I really want to wear. Always wearing t-shirts in the summer is NOT fun!
Also-- thank you for sharing this. It feels good to know that I'm not the only one!
hi alexa! I am a long time watcher of your channel! this unrelated to the content of this video, but if you are ever comfortable posting a video about your struggles with ocd, anxiety, etc, that would be much appreciated. (only if you feel comfortable broaching the subject of course!) as someone who is known for their “sunny” disposition, it makes me feel much less alone knowing that even the most positive people in online spaces (like yourself) can struggle with their mental health. love you so much!
Your cat is gorgeous!
I'm so sorry that people are freaks and leave weird comments on your videos.
Also loving the fruit print and gingham! Both are seasonal staples, but it's nice to have more availability with the trend upswing.
I'm always excited to pull out my late 60s/early 70's style mini dresses for the summer. Every year around this time I feel like I end up buying a couple more A line or babydoll silhouette little dresses. I have quite a collection by this point.
Before you even mentioned it, I was going to comment how much I love the way you say gingham! Don't ever apologize for how you speak!
First of all your Gs are just fine people are just wild. And personally this spring i really wanna wear more dresses especially voluminous dresses
I’m excited to wear linen everything, as well as lightweight comfy pants (gauze, cotton, rayon, etc. with a stretchy waistband). I’m also feeling crochet tops, cowboy boots, and off the shoulder tops.
lol I have a medium haired cat with a very fluffy tail so I laughed at the tail grab at @ 5:29. I do it every time he walks by me 😂
Omg yes, so refreshing to see an influencer who also experiences/experienced chest and back acne. If you rock a backless top I'll be forever inspired ;.)
ur energy in this video is amazing! it feels so authentic and u seem so happy, love it 💞🌸
the key to turning men's boxer shorts into women's shorts is sew up the front fly. Just sew it closed. You can leave the buttons there for decoration but you won't need to worry about gapping if you sew it closed.
Ive watched someone on YT make their own bloomers out of recycled jeans and ruffle trim & I’m OBSESSED with making my own this season 😍
Maybe a baker boy style hat would work? I know it's not as trendy as it used to be, but I think it would match your current style perfectly ❤
I struggle with my Gs, too, along with my Ks due to my elevated palette! This is always something that has frustrated me, but I try to laugh it off the most I can. It's something I can't help! Why would I get mad at myself for it? I definitely get where you're coming from, Alexa. Those people who make fun of you for it just have nothing else better to do. Try your best to embrace that difference, even though it's difficult. I love your content and Alexa and you as a person! You brighten my day! :D
Don't be afraid to wear shirts with bands that you like on them! Especially if they are smaller/local artists or friends' bands! Support your local scene and ignore the people who would judge. Everyone likes different music and that's why so many bands and types exist!
That intro was so chaotic and funny! I LOVE DENIM
I really relate with the backne Im currently trying to wear more backless clothing because it looks so pretty and stylish in others
I’m really excited to wear some of my pieces like these black shorts and camo cargo shorts ! Idk why people want to buy more when I just miss what I’ve had.
Also an aside I had no idea that baseball shirts were on trend. That Dodgers one is a staple for real hynas in LA
I'm excited to wear the tops I knitted with a silk and cotton yarn!
Omg I also love shirring details! I thought it was just me, too.
And frilly cottagecore dresses! I feel like they're something that's very much my style, but I don't have as many as I'd like, so they're #1 on my spring/summer thrift wishlist.
I think frilly dresses pair so well with mary janes! I have some that are like a honey brown and they look great with every dress
Can’t wait to wear my fun patterned bell bottom pants !
I’m excited to wear my denim dress with vintage looking cat patches on it 😂
I love this concept. I love to see what you're wearing/excited to wear and not necessarily what is the trendiest trend of the season. Thanks Alexa, always inspiring!
I can picture you in a crochet bucket hat! There’s tons of people who sell them on Etsy
I'm excited to wear all my floral dresses. I usually wear my combat boots with them because Julia from the wedding singer is my go to style format but I want to find a pair of kitten heels for the same reason you were describing.
Julia had great style. I’m always looking out for a dress like the one she wore in the nightclub 😂
Croc Crush Sandals with jewel and pearl jibbitz are the GOAT for comfy date night shoes. Even wore them under a gown as a wedding guest.
I love checking the lingerie section of thrift stores for bloomers! I'm personally into the shorter look but I am fully 100% supportive of the classic capri style too!
I love to see you in that sailor hat !!! Pls try it
Honestly this is so inspirational!!
loving the mic and the trends you are loving!!
i love those long bloomers, but they do remind me of that “normcore pagliacci” tiktok trend joke 😭
also good luck on your hat search‼️
I love sweater vests, glad I get to enjoy so many of em this season
Halter tops for me is my spring fashion piece
Alexa you never miss!!! I love your seasonal styling videos, I look forward to your videos every season change! As someone who lives in the PNW I typically live vicariously through your warm weather fits in the spring 😂
I am loving all the sailor stuff. Especially the hats. I really think it would be a fun diy to get your standard military surplus sailor hat and then diy it from there. I love doing craft days with family and friends and it’s something I want to do with everyone.
Autumn chilling with you and wanting pets is so cute!! 🥹❤️
With my frilly dresses, I like to wear convers. They dress it down a bit and don't make the outfit look heavy.
i just love alexa and her energy so much, a true ray of sunshine
I'm so excited to wear my lemon dress I bought on vinted 2 years ago. I absolutly love everything that has lemons on it. And also my color linen sets! they are kind of basic but I love them so much.
Autumn just vibing in the back is SO CUTE ❤
I’m excited to get my hats out this spring and summer. I have all different ones . I also bought a bunch of linen and cotton skirts (8 colors)! So I’m excited to wear them.
I also used to have really bad acne on my back (some on my chest as a teen). And I absolutely love backless tops and dresses, it kills me because even though I've gotten it mostly under control, I am a little insecure about it, especially the dark marks 😢 It got much better after hormonal contraceptives, retinoids and benzoyl peroxide but I still get significant breakouts around my period (fun hormones). I just love how backless or strappy tops look tho
Manifesting all people suffering from body acne to just start wearing what we love! 💖 (But always remembering to wear sunscreen because acne + sun is asking for hyperpigmentation to happen.
I feel like those dresses would go really well with nude sandals!!
I'm not really a pastels girly, but ive always loved florals! They're such a staple for me. And I'd never really considered gingham before for myself, but being a long time subscriber to you, you definitely influenced me! I thrifted a beautiful black and white gingham poofy sleeve dress and it's one of my favorite items! Something I've personally been loving in my wardrobe for this season is stripes! I can't seem to stop thrifting striped tops and I love them all so much!!
12:38 try some brown loafers !! or maybe like a white platform sneaker 👟
I’m obsessed with you!!! So happy to find a woman sharing seasonal fashion feelings that isn’t being paid to share a specific message.
With the cottage core dresses I always pair platform white sandals or with white Mary janes with cute frilly socks
Grew up with my family riding Harleys and the Harley shirt trends make me so happy cuz i feel the nostalgia too lol (Also super exited to bring out my crochet dresses!!)
Omg I just wore my fruit and light blue stripe shirt today!! It did feel very spring
Lol, I have worn my spring/summer clothes all winter (in OHIO). I do throw on pants if I have to go away, but 99% of the time, I am in shorts and a cami or tank ... with crocs, lol. I do own winter boots and shirts with sleeves and even a coat in case of snow, but whenever I can, it's shorts, no socks, no sleeves. :)
For shoes: a classic, simple (think Korean clean girl style) white sneaker, with either white ankle socks or, if you want to make the shoe more coquette or girly, those cute sheer, frilly, lace socks. You're right about black shoes being too much, and a loafer or high-top sneaker being too bulky. The simple sneaker with interesting socks (or even laces, actually!) is a good mix.
I found this channel not too long ago, and i want to say i love how excited you get about clothes. Personally, i live in a a state where one day its 70° and the next its 32° and snowing. But, on those nicer/warmer days for spring, i love wearing a kimono (i think thats what they are called-- the really thin cardigans that are long and have some kind of pattern) to work. It dresses up any outift and i work in an office. Im also on the hunt tho for fruit pattern clothes!! 🍓🍋🫐🥑🍇
Alexa I would love to see a video on styling a more fall centered wardrobe towards spring and summer! I don't subscribe to just one aesthetic for myself, but my style is closest to whimsygoth/artsy, and is centered around raspberry, brown, green, black, and white! I have a lotttt of florals, but they're all a bit darker? I'd love to see some fall to spring inspo! 🫶 Ily!
For the frilly cottage core dresses I’ve been loving sambas or kitten heels with them
for strappy/cool heels- check out camper! not sure if there's brick and mortar stores, but their styles are so so cool!
mary jane’s, maybe brown or white ones, would look cute with cottagecore dresses!!
Lace up granny boots with frilly dresses are EVERYTHING… vintage Justin boots would be perfect!
I like the lucy & yak bucket hats :) They make them out of deadstock and have a wide-ish brim if you like that style
I found your channel and I am loving it !!! ❤
Welcome welcome !!! ❤️❤️
FOR FRILL DRESSEs i have the same mary jane tabi shoes as you and they always look sooo good. with a lace sock?! so dainty, so cute!
girl alexa you had me @ the intro
Omfg DAMSON MADDER!!! 😭😭😫❤❤
highly recommend baggu’s fabric sun hat. comfy, floppy, blocks sun well.
This has inspired me to make my spring thrift wish list! Gingham is definitely on there lol
longing to wear my jeanjacket again!! i've had it for like 5 years and it still hurts me to put it away every fall and i get so excited whenever i get to wear it again in spring!
Wear white doc martens fisherman sandals with those dresses. So cute 🥰
I love this! I’m also on the lookout for more hats. I’m super pale and walk a lot of places. So far I mostly wear a baseball cap and a baggu bucket hat. I’d love an update if you find some cute hats!
Lol first day of spring was yesterday and where I live we just got a big dump of snow.
I am also on the hunt for a quilted vest, I think I might try and find a quilted jacket liner and DIY it into a vest. I have one (reversible!) quilted jacket I thrifted but I wear it so often, so I cannot sacrifice that one.
I wear a cream loafer with my flowy, floral dresses. It isn't too formal, and it's easy to walk in. Maybe give that a shot and see if you like it.
I recommend going to Target and trying hats on top see what you like. my favorite summer hat is Cat & Jack ( target kids, I have a smaller head), It looks like straw, but is made out of paper, can be rolled up and get wet. You could also make a video trying hats on if you need community input. You can wear many shoes with frilly dresses, sandals, sneakers, cowgirl boots. Love your videos
For pastels choose white, beige, offwhite, nude, lighter browns or pastel pinks
I wanna get some chunky sandals for my pants and jeans outfits, because once it gets really warm here it's the only way I can wear them without being way too warm. I kinda dig the dr martens + dress though, maybe try them with other kinds of boots too? I do a lot of sneaker with long dress vibe too
Man how could you forget to say you love denim overalls. Haha. But honestly I got into denim more because of you, so thanks❤❤
Last year I bought the baggu soft sun hat in a soft beige color and it was the best hat purchase I’ve ever made and very similar to what you’re describing. I don’t know if they still have that exact style of hat on their site but they will probably have a summer drop soon
i always just pair chunky loafers with my frilly flowery dresses haha
12: 35 I feel thisss I have seemingly every version of black shoes and most of the time it's a slay but other times it feels like an after thought and just like you said like brings down the fit but it's hard to pick shoes in other tones?? I think I'm just comfy with black and need to take a risk next time I'm thrifting lol
I noticed before that you pronounce gingham differently, but I just thought that was just the way gingham was said in an American accent 😂. ❤ from Spain
With frilly dresses I would wear Birkenstocks or white tennis sneakers. Or go full girly with light colored sandals or slingback heels 🤍
I feel like the fruit patterned trend 🫣🫣 you could just shop or order or thrift pattern like that and see it yourself lol tbh I wanna try and make my own 90s midi skirt and maybe a matching top if my aunt would teach me 🫣🫣
Hi Alexa! I've found you here recently and I'm really enjoying your videos, thank you for them! 🌸 About the good shoes with the cottage core dresses: have a look for a brand called Juuri! It's a barefoot sandal brand, where you can choose ribbon colour, structure & how you tie them, so you have hundreds of styles from one shoe! It's definitely something for summer, but oh my, they're so cute! And I love the sustainability/versatility idea behind them. 😊
I love the way you pronounce your g's, Alexa ❤
Unfollowing because someone says “gingham” differently????????????????? Wild 😢
My first thought was maybe they were being sarcastic or trying to start drama? It is ridiculous tho!
And then feeling the need to inform her about it... some people should not be allowed Internet access.
People are just ridiculous anymore 😂
Thank you
12:46 maybe like a victorian/edwardian boot that is midtone brown. I feel like it fits the vibe a lot. But personally I haven't had luck finding those shoes in thrifts store either since it's pretty unique looking haha
Your cat is so so pretty 😍
Alexa, did you check on Etsy yet for your quilted vests? You’ll find SO so many cute ones❣️🙂
That quilted vest would be so easy to make. Too bad Jenna is very busy or she could help!
(1) Find a vest pattern. The styles you showed look very vintage; you may even be able to find them at a thrift store. Even a jacket pattern would work: just don’t use the sleeves. You can also trace a pattern from a vest or jacket you already have that has the shape you’d want on your quilted vest.
(2) Buy cotton fabrics you like; there would be many great options at quilting shops and other fabric stores. Also get some cotton batting. The pieces should be big enough to cut out your pattern from when layered. Prewash the fabrics, air dry. Batting will have specific instructions (sometimes soaking then air drying).
(3) Sandwich fabric, batting, fabric; baste or safety pin the layers. Draw on a quilting pattern in chalk. Machine stitch.
(4) Cut out your pattern pieces matching motif and direction.
(5) Sew pieces together at sides and shoulders.
(6) Make binding strips in a matching or contrasting fabric (see YT videos for quilt binding). Use these first to cover the inside seams, then sew it around the edges of the vest, and finally make the ties out of it.
Would make a great video or series of videos and you get a fully customized vest!
I’m 35 wish I could figure out what my style is! I wear scrubs 5 days a week, my weekends are spent in leggings and band tees. No idea what to wear when I “go out” lol 😅
