HELLO FRIENDS!!! so sorry for the short hiatus, i was in new york last week for creator summit and then was taking a bit of time to do some business & operations stuff... but i'm BACK! what did you think of these outfits?? am i a #novababe yet? and stick around to the end for an update on the ~frankenphora~ lipstick!
Safiya Nygaard Hi, if you’re reading thisss.. I just wanted to wish you a GREAT weekend 💗 full of fun, happiness and new friends 😊, please NEVER stop smiling and DO NOT let anyone let you down ❤️ From a girl that wants to become a successful youtuber one day! 💝
Fashion Nova did Safiya dirty here. $25 for overnight shipping that wasn’t overnight, and no refund for a missing item that was reported in like 5 days.
safiya is the type of youtuber that you could watch in front of your parents without headphones and without worrying that she’ll curse or say anything inappropriate
Its true! She always has a great introduction on thing and presents it like a news reporter. She puts alot of information and thats what i love about her!
The “thighs out” jumpsuit was by far the most flattering, so pretty. It sucks it was uncomfortable while walking because Safiya LOOKED great when walking.
I think I figured out why she's so pleasing to listen to. She did theatre at Stanford University and in theatre you have to be very articulate, so that way of speaking might've stuck
Iv noticed whenever Saf orders online she always has problems with delivery time, its like she lives in some obscure place! She never is able to get next day and standard shipping takes up to 4 weeks with her. Weird. Im in the UK in a small town by Liverpool and get my orders no issue or early! So id have thought with her being in America and most suppliers being in America from where she orders from that she would be quicker than me.
I love how on every video where the woman happens to be not as skinny as a supermodel, there is at least one comment calling her "brave" and "omg she is so confident in her body" etc. Why wouldnt she be confident? Most people would agree that she is beautiful, of course she is confident.
@@westernspy8461 Its a good thing though.. most supermodels dont seem confident in their bodies whatsoever and are boderline anorexic, everyone knows that safiya has an amazing body and her body type is something that is beautiful nowadays(curvy body) and it took a long time to get to that so we should all be celebrating it.
@@westernspy8461 Well in their defense, a lot of girls are not confident in their bodies despite being a normal weight. Funny thing is, I was one of those girls, I was in the "normal" body weight range, yet my body build is rectangle shape, so I was always so uncomfortable in my own body and ashamed of it and wanted to be skinnier, especially in my waist (which I later learned was never going to happen no matter how much weight I lost). I slowly learned to accept myself and love my body, and I actually gained some weight since then and I could really care less now So in conclusion, we shouldn't really blame the people who say things like the ones you quoted, but the media for teaching young kids that anything that isn't "normal" is ugly and not acceptable.
A business that tells you you waited too long to report an item as missing and refuses to refund you for it or send you a new one is sketchy and shady as hell!! Even bath and body works sent me a brand new candle when mine was just missing a wick?! Poor customer service tbh.
exactly what I was thinking!! Most companies even tell you to wait up to 2 weeks longer to ensure its not just late, and if it doesnt show will send you a new one..
That's so weird. Fashion nova delivered my things late and they sent me an apology card with a discount code for my next purchases. But then I live in Canada
My experience with fashion nova is that they don’t give you any money back for your purchase. If you return something you’ll get a gift card or store credit. So be careful when buying from them.
I have seen so many women walking around in public wearing the nastiest outfits and they seem so confident doing it. Being a male I couldn't do that myself.
Saf: *is 5'10* "i think adrienne bailon is shorter than me" Adrienne Bailon: *is 4'11* You know shes just a little taller Edit: I made this comment a year ago and im still getting replies
Natasha S i think it’s more of the quality of the boot- because if it was a decent material, it wouldn’t crease so fast- that’s why the detail of how fast it creased (especially on the first use) says so much to us :’)
7:36 "They told me I waited too long to report this item missing so they did not refund or replace these." That actually sucks! I believe that no matter what you either should've gotten your money back or a replacement. Like whats it to them if it's just $6? Cause now the situation is that you've paid for nothing and they blame it on you?? Ugh at this point its not that you lost $6 (and perhaps the price to ship them) but the lack of a smidge of integrity here :(
In all honesty it probably cost them pennies on the dollar to manufacture the sunglasses. So if they did refund/replace the sunglasses, all the money would be in shipping. And sadly companies are too greedy to do the right thing.
i can't stress enough how good it feels to see saf, a smart and really beautiful woman, in those clothes and just look like a normal person (not like those overly perfect instagram models) BUT STILL ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS
Anyone who knows more about anatomy sees how photoshopped they are... like, 95% of women have some hip dips. And only 8% have a hourglass figure. Seems like they mainly repost photoshop mistresses' pics, you know. Or maybe plastic surgery enthusiasts. (To butthurts, I'm not jealous, I don't personally want to be a parody of a woman)
Seeing Safiya with her average body type (compared to the Nova Babes) look comfortable in her own skin while wearing this stuff is refreshing Edit: wow y'all are sweet I'm glad others agreed w me
i agreeee. most of the models look like the typical post-surgery body. I have a pear body, and still don't look like that. I love when average women do reviews.
I'm smaller than her and live in Asia, i'm called FAT. It's fucking scary to wear exposing clothes because they would definitely tell me straight to my face that i look like pig
I feel like she would be so positive and also able to give you the tough love if you ask for it. Lol. Also, she seems like she knows the best places to get a slushy. Js.
I’ve lost count how many times I have rewatched some of these videos (I have a whole playlist just dedicated to my favorite Safiya videos that I watch constantly)
Nora Monahan I’m pretty sure all of them are gonna leave buzzfeed at some point because they have a contract, it just depends on whether they want to stick with buzzfeed or if they want to be independent
Random....but i just love the fact that she left buzzfeed and her channel blew up. Quality content and a likable and funny personality. Reminds me of old school YT
not gonna lie but at night when i can’t sleep i look for a video from safiya and there’s something about her voice that makes me fall asleep, not cuz her video/voice is boring, it’s because her voice is so soothing and calming and relaxing, etc. hope i’m not the only one i’m pretty sure i am the only one but let’s hope edit: yea, i liked my own comment btw
the Safiya curse of online shopping - she always says “i hope it’ll be here soon” and she either has to wait an unconventionally long time for the packages to arrive or just never receives one of them
blast from the past. i remember saf when she was filming for this. i was on the other side and could see her waddling around with the geese in those heels. edit: just realized. my group made it into the shot lol i thought we were off camera by then
Them not giving you a refund for the sunglasses is exactly what’s wrong with fashionnova. Such a shame bc they have some really cute stuff but their customer service and returns policy are terrible.
Agreed! I ordered a dress from them & didn't hear anything for 2 weeks so I emailed them and they said "it's actually sold out, it was never shipped" so I waited for 2 weeks for nothing and I never got my money back. They have super cute clothing but it's not worth the hassle
it might be worth fighting them on it, for example here in Aus the consumer law supercedes any user agreement and they would be violating it with some of those policies. So you may be entitled to better outcomes.
The thing about fashionnova is that you need to have an specific body shape in order to look good. They are not only selling clothes, they sell a hole aesthetic.
The body shape that you can have if tou have enough money to pay for plastic surgery. + all the pics of fashion nova on instagram or on the websithe are photoshoped (in very terrible way). It’s one big lie and this is why this video was created.
I do agree with you but you can kind of say that about most clothing companies? Like I have a very hourgalss shape and I don’t have any jeans that fit me correct and I can’t get a lot of bottoms in general to fit because most companies design their clothes around very slim models and their body shapes You see what I mean? I like the idea of this company because I’d finally have clothes that would fit me 100% correct!!
Am I the only one that feels fashion nova clothes are only really made to look good on people who are either surgically inhanced or genetic flukes? Like almost all their clothes are made for a girl with DD boobs, a 25 inch waist, and an ass that rivals kim k's. And if you're not that...it's just gonna be awkward.
@@yasmina1198 They wouldn't even do a good job as stripper clothes because most strippers don't look like that and the clothes aren't easy to remove lol. But it's crazy fo sho
MeloncholyMusic or easy to move in i guess, still the models on fashion nova/insta often wear so little i would think it is only appropriate for a stripclub lol like what cardi b would wear. I never see a model with a normale figure 😿
People that are “genetic flukes” also need clothes. Aka me. I don’t have the smallest of waist (30) but have quite a large difference in my hips which are a 42. So most things are awkwardly tight in the thighs and hips and gaping in the waist. Basically clothes shopping is a nightmare. I have been wanting to try some more basic pieces from fashion nova because of their models
Something about Safiya's voice and video editting is soothing for me 😅 there's a consistency in the way she talks that my brain can enjoy videos mutiple times 😂
I love how all of those clothes are made for the gram's. They're not intended to be worn in real life. Love it, just love where we are as a civilization.
Nearly all of my clothes actually come from fashion nova, granted I don’t buy trench coats, more sweaters and jeans, but you can definitely get lots of day to day clothes.
I would argue that this isn't a new phenomenon. Many costumes for film are made specifically for film and not for real life. This could also be true for most noble women's fashions in Europe before the 20th century. Women wore corsets, heavy un-walkable dresses, and even dresses that would have your boobs spill out if you moved wrong. While it is interesting that in 2020 the average consumer can buy clothes that are just for instagram, I feel like it is unfair to say that our society is taking a nose dive downward simply because we like aesthetically pleasing, yet impractical clothes.
And honestly these fast fashion companies are SO wasteful. The clothes aren't made to last, and they're probably going to not be warn more than a year. I see clothes like this and I just think of the mass produced clothing that teenagers get hooked on and then move on the next month. They probably aren't ethical either, or quality, despite the prices..
"I love how on every video where a person happens to not be skinny as a supermodel, there is at least one comment calling her "brave" and "omg she is so confident in her body", etc. Why wouldn't she be confident? Most people would agree that she is beautiful, why wouldn't she be confident?" - westernspy This commenter said this on a top comment and I just felt it deserves more to be top comment.
Some people are ashamed of their own body, even if they are what is traditionally considered pretty. Being confident isn't about how you look, it's about how you think. A model could have low self esteem, while a non model could have high self esteem.
i think “omg she’s so confident in her body” is more about us being insecure about ourselves & knowing we couldn’t go out wearing the kinda clothes she does bc of it. and “brave” is about going out wearing often “controversial” clothing - i.e. clothing that she’d know would garner stares and comments.. again, something we couldn’t do from insecurity.
"Why wouldn't she be confident?" Because we live in a very unrealistic beauty standard society, that forced feed us that we are NOT all beautiful, that you should look like _this_ and like _that_ and do whatever is necessary to do that. So it's cool to see someone being careless about all of that, being confident and happy, for many of us it's an amazing example.
@@s-aga yeah but when you call someone 'brave' simply for wearing somewhat revealing clothing you have to be honest that it will often be taken as a backhanded compliment and can potentially be a little hurtful. If I went out in a skimpy dress and someone said 'wow, you're so brave!' I would definitely not be pleased.
I don't think people talk enough about how gorgeous Safiya is. She just has this intellectual, sort of dark academia aesthetic overall but she looks great in most anything. Her attitude is also so lovable and hilarious that it adds to the whole impression.
It makes me so happy that you are confident enough in your body to go out in these types of outfits. There are some that I definitely won’t be comfortable enough to try.
dang I would be pissed if I spent $25 on overnight shipping and it comes a week later. AND on top of that, they forget an item?! I hope they gave you a refund because that's ridiculous
LovelyNia The shitty part is that they arent giving her a refund for the sunglasses because "supposedly" they were sold out when she ordered it (which doesn't make sense)
Xiomara Videz, close. They said Safiya waited too long to report them missing from the order to get a refund, which is bullshit. The ENTIRE order should have arrived overnight, and on top of it they didn't send her sunglasses. Definitely shoddy work and shady company.
I don't know how comfortable you are with your body in real life, but just seeing you so confidently posing in front of the camera with a body similar to mine- so pretty healthy medium sized- makes me feel so good!!!
Same! I'm so glad to see her so confident! Its hard to be confident with a medium size because the worlds puts out these bodies shape that are just unrealistic. Its a hard world. Sorry if i didn't explain it good, I struggle with explaining 😂
rant not really relevant to the video: safiya and her editors (as well as tyler) are so genuinely talented. not only is saf herself personable and charming, but the production of these videos is so high quality. the cuts are well-timed, the content is well-dispersed, and everything is thought out. many youtubers have at least a few videos that are made solely to gain views or keep up with a schedule-and it’s obvious. but i’ve never seen a video of saf’s that felt half-assed. i’ve been watching her since her start at buzzfeed and it’s wonderful to see her talents truly applied without a corporate overlord filtering her content. i love saf and can’t wait to see what she has for her audience in the years to come.
I feel like a lot can be learned from Safiya. I adore her and love her videos! :D I wanna take a leaf out of her book and wish I could make my videos half as good as hers. lol
I love that way she talks and narrates her videos, it's so calming because I have auditory processing issues and because shes so articulate I dont actually have to work to understand and process what shes saying and it's a nice break. I love listening to her videos while I'm doing idle homework, they're structured so academically (most of the time) that I dont have to focus too hard to make sense of anything. Thank you so much Safiya!
Horrible customer service! their reaction on the sunglasses :o And the fact that you pay that much for next day shipping and it still takes a week, no wonder you thought the sunglasses were maybe still on the way. You made each and every outfit work though, so yay Saf!
Joyce Bosmans Totally. I’d never buy from Fashion Nova, just based on how hard they push their ads. Twice, I’ve had mail-order clothing stolen from my front stoop and each time, the company I purchased from sent replacements or just gave me a merchandise credit if they couldn’t replace.
I think you should make more of a deal of calling them out on the sunglasses thing. Charging for something and not sending is rubbish. Then not refunding or replacing it a total joke. It doesn't matter how long you took to report it, if they don't send it you shouldn't pay!
Tessa Avonlea they don't give your money back they give you credit. I ordered about 300 worth and it was all junk. I've torrent things from China nicer than that. I had no choice but to use the credit ...was so bummed. Hate them forever. Rather pay more money for cute things at Nordstrom
I was LOOKING for this comment!!! I was looking down when I heard it and fell out laughing. I just KNEW someone would not let this slide. I love Safiya's sense of humor. Me, Safiya, my daughter and Tyler could hang out. Probably wouldn't get anything done from laughing, but it would be a lot of fun.
At 3:55 my dad came over, looked at my screen and said, "What is that?" I then explained to him that that was supposed to be a dress, and he said, "That's not a dress, that's a series of ribbons!"
I honestly love that your not super fake with your viewers and you don't kiss their ass and say "I love u so so much" like obviously you don't love someone you don't know, you just simply say thank you for watching. Cuz your real. And not fake. Love it. Love your personality!
Of course you can love that people are supporting you, but so many people sound so non-genuine when they express that. Saying "I love you guys!" just always sounds so flippant and pandering to me. I prefer it when youtubers say something like "Thanks so much for watching, it means so much to me that you guys are supporting my channel" or "I love reading your comments, thanks so much everyone!" But that's just me.
fashion nova does not offer returns, only store credit, and they put that policy in FINE print. HARD pass. Also, they didn't send you sunglasses that you paid for and then refused to refund you because you didn't report it soon enough?! And did not provide you with the expedited shipping that you paid for?! Absolutely ridiculous. Poor excuse for customer service.
After watching three of your videos i realized you’re the RUclipsr I’ve always wanted, but never asked for. You’re so much more realistic than the other RUclipsrs I watch and you don’t pretend you like clothes like everyone else. I don’t feel like I’m watching an ad I feel like I’m watching the truth which you deliver in a very entertaining way
safiya is literally such a genius youtuber/businesswomen, she knows how to push out intersting contents and also turn it into business and people wont even find it annoying, like it makes so much sense to make the frankenstine lisptcik into its own product bc ppl are curious and intersted, if the price is reasonablt (and i believ it will be) i think it def gonna sell well. not like some other youtubers just have merch all of a sudden and sell literally everything that are not relatable to them at all. Safiya has made herself a brand and she made it appear so smooth and lovable. i love it.
Julia Zhou and remember the time she got a sponsorship? everyone was so happy for her and excited as if it was them who'd be getting the money. never happens on other youtube channels lmao
Order arriving a week late when you paid $25 for shipping and they won't refund or replace a $6 pair of sunglasses? Maybe if Fashion Nova didn't spend so much money paying Instagram models to wear their clothes, they could afford good customer service.
the fact that the one day shipping was actually 5 day shipping, and they didnt refund you for an item that never arrived.... already tells me no one should shop from here.
Lauren Poletti I’ve shopped there like 5-6 times and never had any issues with my shipping. I live in NYC and typically get my stuff in 4-5 days. So I’d say it’s worth checking out if you’re interested but definitely don’t bother with the next day shipping. That’s a damn joke
Fashion nova is the damn devil. Wasted my money paying for faster shipping, they refunded me a gift card instead of my money when they didnt actually have 2 things i ordered and a hand bag never came and they just seemed to not care. I cant really stress enough not to even try them unless you have money you arent super attached too.
earth star If you threaten to call your bank to file a complaint they'll refund you. Or if you claim you're a RUclipsr/instagramer with thousands of followers they'll magically act right!
We stan someone who calls out brands for making tiny arms! I’m sick of wearing long sleeves that restrict my range of motion because they expect me to have Barbie thin arms
didn’t arrive on time after paying 25 dollars and didn’t refund or replace a 6 dollar pair of sunglasses? that would have been a massive fight. id want my 31 dollars back promptly. would never order from them just for that
I love how she just says all the sizes she gets freely without thinking anything of it. Anytime I'm put in that kind of situation I tend to freak out and worry what people with think. She is a real inspiration.👏👏👏
I thought the exact same, I never buy online because I don't have a credit card so I was like wait... Is it that easy to choose your size when buying online? I was shook
Seeing Saf face her fashion fear of bodycon dresses on Buzzfeed's ladylike to now seeing her rock the couldn't be bothered skirt (with the 90's baby shirt) makes me really proud of her. :))
I love Safiya's reviews. She's so honest and funny, but she doesn't take herself too seriously. Also I love that she tries on everything regardless of her or the model's size. Her confidence makes me feel confident.
I extremely love how Safiya moves around in public like there's nobody but actually many people look at her with a "what are you doing" face... She has so much confidence. Love you Saf!
Summary: don’t pay for overnight, it won’t arrive, and look at the packing slip as soon as everything arrives and contact that minute if something isn’t there. Or... just don’t.
Bottle Solvent Their return policy sucks (I haven't shopped there in a while so maybe not anymore). They give you Fashion Nova gift cards instead of actual refunds to your card!
Yeah if my item weren't included AND I spent almost $30 on fake overnight shipping I don't give a crap what they say. I'm getting my refund. I'm calling my bank, the BBB, and hell even my pastor and getting my damn money.
they also “accidentally” run out of items after you have payed and instead of refunding your money (which even in that situation would leave a consumer angry) they send you a gift card. my first order of almost a hundred dollars in jeans was replaced with a gift card. absolutely ridiculous.
You casually saying that you got the items a week later and never received or got refunded for the missing sunglasses just completely proves rawbeautykristis point that this is a shady company that only gets hyped because they bribe influencers with free shit.
Lauren C just because you had a good experience does not take away the plenty of bad experiences others have faced, like good for you that is great, but do not pretend like they have not done shitty things to other customers 🤷
Lol if they are so shady why have I had zero problems with them and I've ordered from them for 4 years at least over 20 times. Mistakes happen with shipping lmao my ig is mermaidvibesonly all I wear is fashion nova 🤷🏻♀️
Yes mistakes happen but you have to make up for those mistakes, especially if you're a big business. My sister ordered from yesstyle and some of the creams were missing but when she complained to yesstyle, they sent her the cream with no shipping fee. Also customer relationship is one the most important aspect of a business. Good customer relationship helps with free promotion through word of mouth and thats very helpful to a business. Obviously fashionnova thinks it doesn't need to be good to customers because instagram bloggers have their back.
FashionNova customer service is literally THE worst. I personally will never shop with them again, but that’s me. That being said I still appreciate this video😄
Nalastasia They stole designs COMPLETELY like not even changing it a bit from omighty and deleted anyone who called them out, trash **ps check out omighty, they have cool stuff, and were great on customer service for me.
How does she always pull off every single look she does in these videos? She's also so wonderfully weird and funny and just so real and normal lol. She's not afraid to be herself and I love that the most about her! 🫶🏻
yeah the moment you realize that prettymuch 99% of the people give a shit, you can also pose like that and tbh i am a straight guy, testing this out, i wore a normal outfit but had shiny red nail polish on, nobody cared, litterly nobody, yeah some looked but nobody really cared. XD and now i have nearly as much female tops as t-shirts, but serious crop tops are the best and look really good on men.
i don't like how they wouldn't replace your glasses when they never even arrived, on top of you paying all that money for 24 hour shipping and it ending up coming in 5 days. they seem shady af, i won't be buying from them
Not only is Safiya beautiful and intelligent, she also has sharp wit and an incredible sense of humor! Total package ❤ No wonder Tyler always looks at her with heart eyes 😍
Meh. I think she makes a joke of herself as a coping mechanism. She doesn’t see herself as sexy, gorgeous and full of confidence. People who joke like that are usually pretty self deprecating on the inside.. they rather have people laugh with them being stupid, than to laugh AT THEM actually trying to look hot.
Duuude I am living for Safiya’s personality. She is so positive and confident ! I’ve been looking at the Nova babes and often feel self conscious because I don’t look like them. It was so lovely to watch this video and see Safiya keeping her positive attitude. 👏🏻
Fran V: Same! I feel like they should hire more models with a variety of body types. Like, realistic body types. Not everyone buying their clothes has a body like an “Instagram model”. And I doubt their models are wearing a size Small like they claim in the product description .... like come on. The fabric must be extremely stretchy then if it accommodate their huge boobs and ass.
Nisa T. I totally agree, I can’t with them ☕️ . I feel like the pictures are fun to look at as inspo, but the positives end there, I’ve heard the brand is actually really shady
$25 for overnight shipping and it arrives almost a week later? Also the fact that they straight up didn’t send you something, and then refused to refund your money because you ‘waited too long to report it’? How were you supposed to report it immediately if the package was a week late? I’d raise hell if I were you. This place sounds like they’re scamming people, and getting away with it just because they’ve got celeb sponsors. If I ever considered giving Fashion Nova my money, that thought is dead.
Happened to me before too! My order came in the day i left for vacation and a pair of heels i ordered was missing 39.99 and when i got back email them about it, got the exact response. Never again.
I’ve ordered from them a few times and never had an issue but it’s crazy how it took them a week to get her her items when fashion nova is L.A. based and she lives out there. I live in Palmdale (1 and a half hr away) and have always gotten my items within 3 days and never paid for overnight.
I’m absolutely addicted to watching your videos. I’ve been binging all of them for days now! Love all your video genres, but my favorite are these buying and trying clothes ones. Your humor is definitely the best part of all of them!
Overnight shipping, delivered 5 days late. Glasses not delivered and they refuse to refund or replace them? What kind of Cowboy customer service are they running?! REPORT THEIR ASS TO TRADING STANDARDS!
I think that’s really interesting, cause I’m not too far from where Safiya is and I’m a loyal customer of fashion nova. I always pick normal 3-5 day shipping and I always get everything in 2-3 days
@@rachellamell7263 you know, that's fine, but they obviously didn't get her order right. She got her clothes not in 1 business day even though she paid 25$. They made a mistake and then they made her pay for something she didn't even get. I am glad that you like it and never had problems but the customer service seems to suck very hard based on Safiyas experience - and I hope nothing of your orders will ever be missing because I highly doubt they will treat you better. Btw: Your comment seems like one of these "well I didn't notice something like this, so it wasn't happening", which is very small minded.
Rebecca S Oh gosh please know that wasn’t at all my intention. I was just thinking that it was interesting that it took that long since she and I are so close location-speaking. But no, you’re right, they did mess it up. That’s not uncommon with online shopping and has happened to me many times with various shops. Definitely did not mean to come across as small minded.

Fashion Nova did Safiya dirty here. $25 for overnight shipping that wasn’t overnight, and no refund for a missing item that was reported in like 5 days.

Crap business.

its also incredibly unethical

Its true! She always has a great introduction on thing and presents it like a news reporter. She puts alot of information and thats what i love about her!

Same 😂🤣😭☠️
I almost choked 😂
*sAme gUrl*
Dude I'd be PISSED if I paid $25 for shipping and it didn't arrive the next day
Same tf, I could buy so much with the cost from shipping
ikr
AND the fact that they never sent the sunglasses or returned the $ for them!
Me too
Iv noticed whenever Saf orders online she always has problems with delivery time, its like she lives in some obscure place! She never is able to get next day and standard shipping takes up to 4 weeks with her. Weird. Im in the UK in a small town by Liverpool and get my orders no issue or early! So id have thought with her being in America and most suppliers being in America from where she orders from that she would be quicker than me.
I wish I was as confident as Safiya, such an icon.
charlotte fottrell
Definitely. I think it helps that her fiancé is the one recording her, since he has her sense of humor and everything.
ikr :((((((
😔👊
same thing
same i wish i could be saf
I love how Safiya is confident and comfortable in her body
JJ _Baeza I would be if I had her figure, she is hot AF! 🔥🔥🔥
I love how on every video where the woman happens to be not as skinny as a supermodel, there is at least one comment calling her "brave" and "omg she is so confident in her body" etc. Why wouldnt she be confident? Most people would agree that she is beautiful, of course she is confident.
@@westernspy8461 Its a good thing though.. most supermodels dont seem confident in their bodies whatsoever and are boderline anorexic, everyone knows that safiya has an amazing body and her body type is something that is beautiful nowadays(curvy body) and it took a long time to get to that so we should all be celebrating it.
@@westernspy8461 Well in their defense, a lot of girls are not confident in their bodies despite being a normal weight. Funny thing is, I was one of those girls, I was in the "normal" body weight range, yet my body build is rectangle shape, so I was always so uncomfortable in my own body and ashamed of it and wanted to be skinnier, especially in my waist (which I later learned was never going to happen no matter how much weight I lost). I slowly learned to accept myself and love my body, and I actually gained some weight since then and I could really care less now
So in conclusion, we shouldn't really blame the people who say things like the ones you quoted, but the media for teaching young kids that anything that isn't "normal" is ugly and not acceptable.
Ava Khan I think her body is gorgeous but I wouldn’t consider her curvy lol what? I guess maybe for certain races that’s considered curves
“Oh look there’s a novababe with her novabae” 😂
“Awww look at this, it’s a novababe with her novababies”
lol
😂😂
Dear god
is no one gonna talk about the “shake it baby” 🤣
I was looking for this comment!!😂😂😂
IT WAS SO CUTE THAT SHE SAID THATT
That was too cute
Omg, I read this comment as it was said 😂🤣😂🤣
i died 😂😂
A business that tells you you waited too long to report an item as missing and refuses to refund you for it or send you a new one is sketchy and shady as hell!! Even bath and body works sent me a brand new candle when mine was just missing a wick?! Poor customer service tbh.
I thought that too!
For real they’re super sketchy for saying that! And she paid for $25 overnight shipping and none of the stuff came in one day! What a rip off 😒
exactly what I was thinking!! Most companies even tell you to wait up to 2 weeks longer to ensure its not just late, and if it doesnt show will send you a new one..
That's so weird. Fashion nova delivered my things late and they sent me an apology card with a discount code for my next purchases. But then I live in Canada
My experience with fashion nova is that they don’t give you any money back for your purchase. If you return something you’ll get a gift card or store credit. So be careful when buying from them.
Fashion Nova's new slogan should be " they photograph well but you do run into problems when you start walking" LMAO
Well I mean they look so good in the photos because they photoshop it a ton lmao
BRUH imagine going out everyday for a week
Lmfao true
i could never
yulieree how many times do ya usually get out a week?
(Dec 21st, 2020 Edit: I wasn’t trying to sound rude lol)
@@somethingwithbungalows once or twice a week (obviously not counting like the way to work and stuff)
I could never
I love how Safiya can walk out in whatever she wants, and not give a shit about what anyone says. It’s so admirable.
yes
I have seen so many women walking around in public wearing the nastiest outfits and they seem so confident doing it. Being a male I couldn't do that myself.
@@potatomister-ej6os that’s why you’re a male
That's how it should be. Stop caring what other people think, they don't matter. Wear whatever you want.
I love that when you say for a week you actually do a week instead of 5 days
yeah.... unlike others theyd just do 5 days and their 24hrs is just the whole day, like 8-5.
Kennedy Wilcox just saying if they do 5 they mean a working week like in the uk we have a full week and a working week sorry if this came out mean :)
Probably cause she has a 7 day period tbf. Everyone says periods last a week, so to her that would be 7 days
Yeah most people do a working or school week in the UK.
maybe it’s because the other creators may edit their video on the other two days so they can get their video out 😊
Saf: *is 5'10* "i think adrienne bailon is shorter than me"
Adrienne Bailon: *is 4'11*
You know shes just a little taller
Edit: I made this comment a year ago and im still getting replies
Woah, she is the same height as me
Except I'm really close to 5 feet
I am taller then her i am 11...
I'm 11 years old, and I'm way taller than her.
Teehee08 RBLX i am 5 foot 7 aka 1.70 cm
ya almost a whole foot
This is how reviews should be like, specially when you said how it creased around the toes on the silver boots, we love the attention for details! 👏🏻
Expect everything to crease and crack soon from places like this 🤣
Natasha S i think it’s more of the quality of the boot- because if it was a decent material, it wouldn’t crease so fast- that’s why the detail of how fast it creased (especially on the first use) says so much to us :’)
Thank you
Yes, she's brutally honest 👏 I love it
7:36 "They told me I waited too long to report this item missing so they did not refund or replace these." That actually sucks! I believe that no matter what you either should've gotten your money back or a replacement. Like whats it to them if it's just $6? Cause now the situation is that you've paid for nothing and they blame it on you?? Ugh at this point its not that you lost $6 (and perhaps the price to ship them) but the lack of a smidge of integrity here :(
In all honesty it probably cost them pennies on the dollar to manufacture the sunglasses. So if they did refund/replace the sunglasses, all the money would be in shipping. And sadly companies are too greedy to do the right thing.
Yes exactly it’s not about the $6 - it’s the whole principle. This factor made me not want to buy from them.
i can't stress enough how good it feels to see saf, a smart and really beautiful woman, in those clothes and just look like a normal person (not like those overly perfect instagram models) BUT STILL ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS
Anyone who knows more about anatomy sees how photoshopped they are... like, 95% of women have some hip dips. And only 8% have a hourglass figure. Seems like they mainly repost photoshop mistresses' pics, you know. Or maybe plastic surgery enthusiasts. (To butthurts, I'm not jealous, I don't personally want to be a parody of a woman)
@@jagoda3714 excellent comment. That's exactly what I was thinking about those pictures.
The 90s baby outfit... she looked stunning.
yeah, sry Fashion Nova, but your clothes don't look good on people who don't have an Marilyn Monroe-like hip to waist ratio.
You mean fat and below average?
Seeing Safiya with her average body type (compared to the Nova Babes) look comfortable in her own skin while wearing this stuff is refreshing
Edit: wow y'all are sweet I'm glad others agreed w me
i agreeee. most of the models look like the typical post-surgery body. I have a pear body, and still don't look like that. I love when average women do reviews.
Yes, it's either curvy, skinny, or chubby. There is usually no "average" on RUclips
I'm smaller than her and live in Asia, i'm called FAT. It's fucking scary to wear exposing clothes because they would definitely tell me straight to my face that i look like pig
Linh Trần Lê Phương u should wear what you like to wear ❤️
Truee that's part of the reason I watch her now
safiya is just so naturally funny and witty! she seems like someone who would be so fun to hang out with haha
simplymallory thought the same thing 😄
I feel like she would be so positive and also able to give you the tough love if you ask for it. Lol. Also, she seems like she knows the best places to get a slushy. Js.
wonAWAY Yes, I wish I could find a friend like her! Haha :D
Nah
I'd absolutely LOVE to hang out with her!
safiya's got the kind of videos that you never get tired of rewatching.
edit: mom im famous
Yee
Exactly I think I've watched this video like 4 times and he soap making ones like 8 times😂
I’ve lost count how many times I have rewatched some of these videos (I have a whole playlist just dedicated to my favorite Safiya videos that I watch constantly)
facts
Literally one of the yotubers I watch when I have anxietyattacks because of that reason!
Leaving buzzfeed was the best decision you ever made
EDIT: Thanks for all the likes!
I love watching ladylike 🥺
omg i forgot she was on buzzfeed once !
Nora Monahan I’m pretty sure all of them are gonna leave buzzfeed at some point because they have a contract, it just depends on whether they want to stick with buzzfeed or if they want to be independent
I use to only watch lady like and Ryan and Shane 😂
Nora Monahan ikr
Random....but i just love the fact that she left buzzfeed and her channel blew up. Quality content and a likable and funny personality. Reminds me of old school YT
It's so nice to see a woman with my size represented instead of making me feel like crap you are gorgeous
Yes! I always thought of myself as huge and weird but Saf is my size and she is absolutely stunning ❤️
YASSSS
Safiya is a glamazon and I love it!!
She is a good representation to us ~normal~ girls but in reality she is tiny esp on the upper half lol but forreal she is small
@@MimiMimi-ii8iy I think they were more talking about the tact she's 5'9 although I may be wrong
The 90's baby outfit actually looked cute on you.
not gonna lie but at night when i can’t sleep i look for a video from safiya and there’s something about her voice that makes me fall asleep, not cuz her video/voice is boring, it’s because her voice is so soothing and calming and relaxing, etc.
hope i’m not the only one
i’m pretty sure i am the only one but let’s hope
edit: yea, i liked my own comment btw
You aren't alone
Me too. Her voice is very relaxing
Same!!
i feel asleep to her last night, might just be that i’m sick right now, but yeah her voice is very soothing
Omg same!😅
Safiya's confidence is admirable
True
the Safiya curse of online shopping - she always says “i hope it’ll be here soon” and she either has to wait an unconventionally long time for the packages to arrive or just never receives one of them
blast from the past. i remember saf when she was filming for this. i was on the other side and could see her waddling around with the geese in those heels.
edit: just realized. my group made it into the shot lol i thought we were off camera by then
Time stamp pls
Were you a fan of her back then? X
8:49?
BRUH imagine going out everyday for a week
Them not giving you a refund for the sunglasses is exactly what’s wrong with fashionnova. Such a shame bc they have some really cute stuff but their customer service and returns policy are terrible.
Agreed! I ordered a dress from them & didn't hear anything for 2 weeks so I emailed them and they said "it's actually sold out, it was never shipped" so I waited for 2 weeks for nothing and I never got my money back. They have super cute clothing but it's not worth the hassle
And the fact that she paid $25 for overnight shipping and it took a week...
it might be worth fighting them on it, for example here in Aus the consumer law supercedes any user agreement and they would be violating it with some of those policies. So you may be entitled to better outcomes.
Honestly, the shipping bullshit pissed me off more. 25 bucks for regular ass shipping?! Scam much?
Lol she "waited too long" to report the sunglasses missing while she waited only a week, what kind of shit customer service is this...
Am I the person who thinks fashion nova isn’t affordable...
Chichi Mweetwa i dont either
I literally just got 3 shirts from Walmart, at like $7 each 😂 fashion nova is definitely not affordable to me.
It’s pretty much the same price as Forever 21, even though the quality is lower
Yeah thrift shopping all the way
I'm not broke but its expensive
The thing about fashionnova is that you need to have an specific body shape in order to look good. They are not only selling clothes, they sell a hole aesthetic.
*Whole
The body shape that you can have if tou have enough money to pay for plastic surgery. + all the pics of fashion nova on instagram or on the websithe are photoshoped (in very terrible way). It’s one big lie and this is why this video was created.
But has anybody the body shape to look good in that white dress? That is: without being photoshopped?
I do agree with you but you can kind of say that about most clothing companies? Like I have a very hourgalss shape and I don’t have any jeans that fit me correct and I can’t get a lot of bottoms in general to fit because most companies design their clothes around very slim models and their body shapes
You see what I mean? I like the idea of this company because I’d finally have clothes that would fit me 100% correct!!
yyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
Am I the only one that feels fashion nova clothes are only really made to look good on people who are either surgically inhanced or genetic flukes? Like almost all their clothes are made for a girl with DD boobs, a 25 inch waist, and an ass that rivals kim k's. And if you're not that...it's just gonna be awkward.
MeloncholyMusic aka stripper clothes 😭😹
@@yasmina1198 They wouldn't even do a good job as stripper clothes because most strippers don't look like that and the clothes aren't easy to remove lol. But it's crazy fo sho
MeloncholyMusic or easy to move in i guess, still the models on fashion nova/insta often wear so little i would think it is only appropriate for a stripclub lol like what cardi b would wear. I never see a model with a normale figure 😿
@@yasmina1198 That's facts
People that are “genetic flukes” also need clothes. Aka me. I don’t have the smallest of waist (30) but have quite a large difference in my hips which are a 42. So most things are awkwardly tight in the thighs and hips and gaping in the waist. Basically clothes shopping is a nightmare. I have been wanting to try some more basic pieces from fashion nova because of their models
Something about Safiya's voice and video editting is soothing for me 😅 there's a consistency in the way she talks that my brain can enjoy videos mutiple times 😂
agreed. also i may have watched a bunch while sewing as a comfort thing. She's my youtube mac and cheese.
Same
Doesn't she sound like Robin from How I met your mother?
Trueee
Yes, she's amazing :3
I love how all of those clothes are made for the gram's. They're not intended to be worn in real life. Love it, just love where we are as a civilization.
OK, some are actually feasible as day-to-day clothes.
Nearly all of my clothes actually come from fashion nova, granted I don’t buy trench coats, more sweaters and jeans, but you can definitely get lots of day to day clothes.
I would argue that this isn't a new phenomenon. Many costumes for film are made specifically for film and not for real life. This could also be true for most noble women's fashions in Europe before the 20th century. Women wore corsets, heavy un-walkable dresses, and even dresses that would have your boobs spill out if you moved wrong. While it is interesting that in 2020 the average consumer can buy clothes that are just for instagram, I feel like it is unfair to say that our society is taking a nose dive downward simply because we like aesthetically pleasing, yet impractical clothes.
And honestly these fast fashion companies are SO wasteful. The clothes aren't made to last, and they're probably going to not be warn more than a year. I see clothes like this and I just think of the mass produced clothing that teenagers get hooked on and then move on the next month. They probably aren't ethical either, or quality, despite the prices..
@@salemsaberhagen3238 "aesthetically pleasing, yet impractical clothes" sounds like something straight out of Gulliver's travels
"I love how on every video where a person happens to not be skinny as a supermodel, there is at least one comment calling her "brave" and "omg she is so confident in her body", etc. Why wouldn't she be confident? Most people would agree that she is beautiful, why wouldn't she be confident?"
- westernspy
This commenter said this on a top comment and I just felt it deserves more to be top comment.
Agreed, it's such a backhanded compliment.
Some people are ashamed of their own body, even if they are what is traditionally considered pretty. Being confident isn't about how you look, it's about how you think. A model could have low self esteem, while a non model could have high self esteem.
i think “omg she’s so confident in her body” is more about us being insecure about ourselves & knowing we couldn’t go out wearing the kinda clothes she does bc of it.
and “brave” is about going out wearing often “controversial” clothing - i.e. clothing that she’d know would garner stares and comments.. again, something we couldn’t do from insecurity.
"Why wouldn't she be confident?"
Because we live in a very unrealistic beauty standard society, that forced feed us that we are NOT all beautiful, that you should look like _this_ and like _that_ and do whatever is necessary to do that. So it's cool to see someone being careless about all of that, being confident and happy, for many of us it's an amazing example.
@@s-aga yeah but when you call someone 'brave' simply for wearing somewhat revealing clothing you have to be honest that it will often be taken as a backhanded compliment and can potentially be a little hurtful. If I went out in a skimpy dress and someone said 'wow, you're so brave!' I would definitely not be pleased.
I don't think people talk enough about how gorgeous Safiya is. She just has this intellectual, sort of dark academia aesthetic overall but she looks great in most anything. Her attitude is also so lovable and hilarious that it adds to the whole impression.
It makes me so happy that you are confident enough in your body to go out in these types of outfits. There are some that I definitely won’t be comfortable enough to try.
dang I would be pissed if I spent $25 on overnight shipping and it comes a week later. AND on top of that, they forget an item?! I hope they gave you a refund because that's ridiculous
LovelyNia The shitty part is that they arent giving her a refund for the sunglasses because "supposedly" they were sold out when she ordered it (which doesn't make sense)
Xiomara Videz, close. They said Safiya waited too long to report them missing from the order to get a refund, which is bullshit. The ENTIRE order should have arrived overnight, and on top of it they didn't send her sunglasses. Definitely shoddy work and shady company.
Knowing fashion nova, they probably didn't.
LovelyNia exactly
LovelyNia 1BUISNESS DAY MEANS IT MAY COME ION THURSDAY OR FRIDAY AT LEAST 5 DAYS
honestly the 90s baby outfit looked BOMB on you safiya! you seemed really comfy in it too which is also a bonus!!
Origami Star TODOROKI
YES TODOROKI
ROKITODO
yes your pfp is bomb as well
THAT WAS WHAT I WAS THINKING! Like damn she looked better than the model
11:45
Older woman: shake it baby
Me: I agree
I don't know how comfortable you are with your body in real life, but just seeing you so confidently posing in front of the camera with a body similar to mine- so pretty healthy medium sized- makes me feel so good!!!
I know, it really helps me feel more beautiful when she's so fine with her body/sizing (especially the size 10 shoe)
Same! I'm so glad to see her so confident! Its hard to be confident with a medium size because the worlds puts out these bodies shape that are just unrealistic. Its a hard world. Sorry if i didn't explain it good, I struggle with explaining 😂

Evy moerman mhm okay
Sarah said who?I actually do
rant not really relevant to the video:
safiya and her editors (as well as tyler) are so genuinely talented.
not only is saf herself personable and charming, but the production of these videos is so high quality.
the cuts are well-timed, the content is well-dispersed, and everything is thought out.
many youtubers have at least a few videos that are made solely to gain views or keep up with a schedule-and it’s obvious. but i’ve never seen a video of saf’s that felt half-assed.
i’ve been watching her since her start at buzzfeed and it’s wonderful to see her talents truly applied without a corporate overlord filtering her content.
i love saf and can’t wait to see what she has for her audience in the years to come.
Wow what a positive feedback. ❤
I feel like a lot can be learned from Safiya. I adore her and love her videos! :D I wanna take a leaf out of her book and wish I could make my videos half as good as hers. lol
I love that way she talks and narrates her videos, it's so calming because I have auditory processing issues and because shes so articulate I dont actually have to work to understand and process what shes saying and it's a nice break.
I love listening to her videos while I'm doing idle homework, they're structured so academically (most of the time) that I dont have to focus too hard to make sense of anything.
Thank you so much Safiya!
Same! It's so much easier to listen to than a lot of other people.
Horrible customer service! their reaction on the sunglasses :o And the fact that you pay that much for next day shipping and it still takes a week, no wonder you thought the sunglasses were maybe still on the way. You made each and every outfit work though, so yay Saf!
Joyce Bosmans Totally. I’d never buy from Fashion Nova, just based on how hard they push their ads. Twice, I’ve had mail-order clothing stolen from my front stoop and each time, the company I purchased from sent replacements or just gave me a merchandise credit if they couldn’t replace.
When I ordered, my package literally arrived almost a month later and they sent me the wrong jeans :(
*casually spends 363 dollars*
yes i really did the damn math
pres ! Did you add up the tax😳
BUT SHIPPING THOUGH.
(and shipping BACK for returns&refunds?? the sunglass sham strikes me as the site being petty af)
BattyButtercup I think over 100$ it’s free shipping
It's pretty crazy I can't imagine just tossing out that much in one go like that... O.o
Don't most influencers return after they make the video?
I think you should make more of a deal of calling them out on the sunglasses thing. Charging for something and not sending is rubbish. Then not refunding or replacing it a total joke. It doesn't matter how long you took to report it, if they don't send it you shouldn't pay!
Tessa Avonlea was about to comment this, that’s some bs
Charging $25 for one day shipping and not going through with it is ridiculous too. I would demand a refund.
tasha b exactly fashionnova always seems to be sketch with the shipping fulfillment
Tessa Avonlea they don't give your money back they give you credit. I ordered about 300 worth and it was all junk. I've torrent things from China nicer than that. I had no choice but to use the credit ...was so bummed. Hate them forever. Rather pay more money for cute things at Nordstrom
Thanks for the heads up. I will be avoiding this company on the strength of this review. That kind of behaviour is shady and underhanded.
Saf: this is a sexy dress
Also saf: I look like the inside of a nice caskette
I was LOOKING for this comment!!! I was looking down when I heard it and fell out laughing. I just KNEW someone would not let this slide. I love Safiya's sense of humor. Me, Safiya, my daughter and Tyler could hang out. Probably wouldn't get anything done from laughing, but it would be a lot of fun.
You're a Nova Babe in my book, Saf.
So they didn't ship overnight and didn't give you your money back for the glasses. Classy.
At 3:55 my dad came over, looked at my screen and said, "What is that?"
I then explained to him that that was supposed to be a dress, and he said, "That's not a dress, that's a series of ribbons!"
LOOOOLLLLLL
I'm dead🤣🤣🤣
W E L L
_He aint wrong_
I honestly love that your not super fake with your viewers and you don't kiss their ass and say "I love u so so much" like obviously you don't love someone you don't know, you just simply say thank you for watching. Cuz your real. And not fake. Love it. Love your personality!
I feel like when they say "I love you all so much" what they really mean is "I love that you're adding to my subscription numbers" lol
I think you can love that they're supporting you tho
Of course you can love that people are supporting you, but so many people sound so non-genuine when they express that. Saying "I love you guys!" just always sounds so flippant and pandering to me. I prefer it when youtubers say something like "Thanks so much for watching, it means so much to me that you guys are supporting my channel" or "I love reading your comments, thanks so much everyone!"
But that's just me.
Yes i agree, since that word gets thrown around so easily
Thatkitten Inthewindow lol true
fashion nova does not offer returns, only store credit, and they put that policy in FINE print. HARD pass. Also, they didn't send you sunglasses that you paid for and then refused to refund you because you didn't report it soon enough?! And did not provide you with the expedited shipping that you paid for?! Absolutely ridiculous. Poor excuse for customer service.
Jill Sarah G Exactly. They should have sent the glasses late and refunded her the $25 for shipping at the very least.
Right? I wish she had made a bigger deal of that in the video, it's kind of ridiculous.
After watching three of your videos i realized you’re the RUclipsr I’ve always wanted, but never asked for. You’re so much more realistic than the other RUclipsrs I watch and you don’t pretend you like clothes like everyone else. I don’t feel like I’m watching an ad I feel like I’m watching the truth which you deliver in a very entertaining way
cherlish gambo yes and at the same time she is not annoying .
Coz she be more a RUclipsr than a Model
Yes this is the second video of hers I’ve watched and I love her!
My favorite part was the older woman saying "shake it baby"
Mine too
safiya is literally such a genius youtuber/businesswomen, she knows how to push out intersting contents and also turn it into business and people wont even find it annoying, like it makes so much sense to make the frankenstine lisptcik into its own product bc ppl are curious and intersted, if the price is reasonablt (and i believ it will be) i think it def gonna sell well. not like some other youtubers just have merch all of a sudden and sell literally everything that are not relatable to them at all. Safiya has made herself a brand and she made it appear so smooth and lovable. i love it.
Julia Zhou and remember the time she got a sponsorship? everyone was so happy for her and excited as if it was them who'd be getting the money. never happens on other youtube channels lmao
honestly tho she's one of the most genuine youtuber I've ever seen so far on youtube
Julia Zhou I would totally buy the frankenlipstick. That was a cool color and concept.
Order arriving a week late when you paid $25 for shipping and they won't refund or replace a $6 pair of sunglasses? Maybe if Fashion Nova didn't spend so much money paying Instagram models to wear their clothes, they could afford good customer service.
Evil Cat Gaming oooh yes girl I agree
I totally agree, I was instantly furious with them and I plan on telling everyone to boycott the site.
She probably didn't ask to speak to a supervisor cause they woulda had me fuuuuucked up
Evil Cat Gaming honey, they are just broke. Fashion Nova is a bad business to get into. They get lots of clients but are broke. 😒 Period! 🙌🏽
They’re terrible, return policy is also bs. Only store credit and you have to pay shipping that you’re not reimbursed for when you send it back.
the fact that the one day shipping was actually 5 day shipping, and they didnt refund you for an item that never arrived.... already tells me no one should shop from here.
Lauren Poletti I’ve shopped there like 5-6 times and never had any issues with my shipping. I live in NYC and typically get my stuff in 4-5 days. So I’d say it’s worth checking out if you’re interested but definitely don’t bother with the next day shipping. That’s a damn joke
dinkyboss a DAM joke haha inside joke don’t judge
Fashion nova is the damn devil. Wasted my money paying for faster shipping, they refunded me a gift card instead of my money when they didnt actually have 2 things i ordered and a hand bag never came and they just seemed to not care.
I cant really stress enough not to even try them unless you have money you arent super attached too.
dinkyboss they don’t even refund you if you return your items. Just store credit so I wasted $200
earth star If you threaten to call your bank to file a complaint they'll refund you. Or if you claim you're a RUclipsr/instagramer with thousands of followers they'll magically act right!
We stan someone who calls out brands for making tiny arms! I’m sick of wearing long sleeves that restrict my range of motion because they expect me to have Barbie thin arms

Ok but same
Just placed my first fashion nova order and I cant stop watching this

Literally, same. Someone stop me.
omg same why are we like this
honestly, i rewatch her videos all the time lol. Her videos are just so fresh everytime.
“I’m a 90’s baby so why not advertise that above my chesticles” idk why this hella made me laugh
didn’t arrive on time after paying 25 dollars and didn’t refund or replace a 6 dollar pair of sunglasses? that would have been a massive fight. id want my 31 dollars back promptly. would never order from them just for that
That’s like something fashion nova is known for (never ever giving refunds) and it’s pretty fucking repulsive
i love how she just strolls around in crazy outfits..... kinda makes me wanna get in my granny dress and lounge in ikea
Mo R. Lol, you have a granny dress too?😂
Ally Fowler think of what stevie nicks would wear lol i mean it looks like my grandmas curtains 😂😂

I love how she just says all the sizes she gets freely without thinking anything of it. Anytime I'm put in that kind of situation I tend to freak out and worry what people with think. She is a real inspiration.👏👏👏
I thought the exact same, I never buy online because I don't have a credit card so I was like wait... Is it that easy to choose your size when buying online? I was shook
LOL THE OLD WOMAN " SHAKE IT BABY" Lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
what time
Megan Kelly 11:43 ish
Megan Kelly it was 11:45 I think
That was so great 😂😂😂
wtf older lady!!!!!
Seeing Saf face her fashion fear of bodycon dresses on Buzzfeed's ladylike to now seeing her rock the couldn't be bothered skirt (with the 90's baby shirt) makes me really proud of her. :))
this girl is so funny and her personality is gorgeous
suprhomre I want to marry her
She has a really pretty laugh to.
I think those two adjectives should be switched

"I think Adrienne might be a little shorter than I am..."
Safiya is 5'10" (I think) and Adrienne is 4'11".
Yeah, a little shorter is definitely right
Yeah, I was right to assume that she was a whole foot shorter than Saf.
The Amazing Cringey Nessa pppp
I didn't know she was so tall!
nessa rose here’s something horrifying and height related- Joni Siwa is 5’9 and that’s taller than Danielle bregoli and me and I’m 21
lol
ok but why is the intro such a bop
SweetTreats omg I literally see u watching all the same you tubers I watch I bet we would be great friends lol
true
You gotta bop your bussy!
SweetTreats yas
Lol she bought the intro song as part of one of her "I bought the first 5 things ______ recommended me" series.
I love Safiya's reviews. She's so honest and funny, but she doesn't take herself too seriously. Also I love that she tries on everything regardless of her or the model's size. Her confidence makes me feel confident.
The grey/silver hair is sooo Saf. That witchy dark vibe tho
She said chesticles, I’ve been waiting for someone to say this forever.
That's kinda weird
Who else thought of Miranda sings
That’s oddly specific.
old woman: "shake it baby"
😂😂😂
Omg as soon as i looked at the comment while watching the video, the part when the old woman said "shake it baby" came on lmao
That old woman is my spirit animal lol
@austinpowers??
ahahah
Legendary
I extremely love how Safiya moves around in public like there's nobody but actually many people look at her with a "what are you doing" face... She has so much confidence. Love you Saf!
Summary: don’t pay for overnight, it won’t arrive, and look at the packing slip as soon as everything arrives and contact that minute if something isn’t there.
Or... just don’t.
Bottle Solvent Their return policy sucks (I haven't shopped there in a while so maybe not anymore). They give you Fashion Nova gift cards instead of actual refunds to your card!
Yeah if my item weren't included AND I spent almost $30 on fake overnight shipping I don't give a crap what they say. I'm getting my refund. I'm calling my bank, the BBB, and hell even my pastor and getting my damn money.
Did you guys order 1 business day? In that case, that means one week.
i dont get how not refunding is legal
they also “accidentally” run out of items after you have payed and instead of refunding your money (which even in that situation would leave a consumer angry) they send you a gift card. my first order of almost a hundred dollars in jeans was replaced with a gift card. absolutely ridiculous.
You casually saying that you got the items a week later and never received or got refunded for the missing sunglasses just completely proves rawbeautykristis point that this is a shady company that only gets hyped because they bribe influencers with free shit.
Fany Lorena I’ve ordered many things and never had a problem lol.
Lauren C just because you had a good experience does not take away the plenty of bad experiences others have faced, like good for you that is great, but do not pretend like they have not done shitty things to other customers 🤷
Yeah, that sunglasses thing was such a d move.
Lol if they are so shady why have I had zero problems with them and I've ordered from them for 4 years at least over 20 times. Mistakes happen with shipping lmao my ig is mermaidvibesonly all I wear is fashion nova 🤷🏻♀️
Yes mistakes happen but you have to make up for those mistakes, especially if you're a big business. My sister ordered from yesstyle and some of the creams were missing but when she complained to yesstyle, they sent her the cream with no shipping fee. Also customer relationship is one the most important aspect of a business. Good customer relationship helps with free promotion through word of mouth and thats very helpful to a business. Obviously fashionnova thinks it doesn't need to be good to customers because instagram bloggers have their back.
FashionNova customer service is literally THE worst. I personally will never shop with them again, but that’s me. That being said I still appreciate this video😄
Honestly!! I had to threaten contacting the better business bureau to get anywhere with them 🙄
That's what I hate about these sites.
Nalastasia They stole designs COMPLETELY like not even changing it a bit from omighty and deleted anyone who called them out, trash
**ps check out omighty, they have cool stuff, and were great on customer service for me.
Ive never tried them, but the way they handled saf's glasses was RIDICULOUS. How is 5 days 'too late'?
I agree There customer service sucks, but I still love the clothes
How does she always pull off every single look she does in these videos? She's also so wonderfully weird and funny and just so real and normal lol. She's not afraid to be herself and I love that the most about her! 🫶🏻
How is she so comfortable posing in public like that? Haha
Ra8az Probs used to it XD
Jazmin Garcia not necessarily self confidence
yeah the moment you realize that prettymuch 99% of the people give a shit, you can also pose like that and tbh i am a straight guy, testing this out,
i wore a normal outfit but had shiny red nail polish on, nobody cared, litterly nobody, yeah some looked but nobody really cared.
XD
and now i have nearly as much female tops as t-shirts, but serious crop tops are the best and look really good on men.
i don't like how they wouldn't replace your glasses when they never even arrived, on top of you paying all that money for 24 hour shipping and it ending up coming in 5 days. they seem shady af, i won't be buying from them
Scarlettlovesunicorns yea
True
*wouldn't
Lerd the Therd She was saying "I won't be buying from them" as in herself personally, not "I wouldn't be buying from them (if I were you)"
Yes, but if there was one, they should refund it. One day means one day.
Not only is Safiya beautiful and intelligent, she also has sharp wit and an incredible sense of humor! Total package ❤ No wonder Tyler always looks at her with heart eyes 😍
The biggest thing I learn from these videos is to never pick overnight/express shipping because it's such a waste of money lol
hello-b for real, I just got the free shipping from there and it got to me faster.
I love how real and awkward you are!!! And not afraid to be you please stay the same girl you’re awesome!
Daisy Inostrosa same here she really stands out from the rest of the RUclipsrs
Love how this sounds like a back of the yearbook quote lollll
Meh. I think she makes a joke of herself as a coping mechanism. She doesn’t see herself as sexy, gorgeous and full of confidence. People who joke like that are usually pretty self deprecating on the inside.. they rather have people laugh with them being stupid, than to laugh AT THEM actually trying to look hot.
"I Got Groped by Wolverine" If she was anything like the click-baity RUclipsrs, she could have gone with that for te title
And this is why I adore you , goose chasing on high heel in the grass , definitely looks like something I would do 😂
Duuude I am living for Safiya’s personality. She is so positive and confident !
I’ve been looking at the Nova babes and often feel self conscious because I don’t look like them. It was so lovely to watch this video and see Safiya keeping her positive attitude. 👏🏻
Fran V: Same! I feel like they should hire more models with a variety of body types. Like, realistic body types. Not everyone buying their clothes has a body like an “Instagram model”. And I doubt their models are wearing a size Small like they claim in the product description .... like come on. The fabric must be extremely stretchy then if it accommodate their huge boobs and ass.
Nisa T. I totally agree, I can’t with them ☕️ . I feel like the pictures are fun to look at as inspo, but the positives end there, I’ve heard the brand is actually really shady
$25 for overnight shipping and it arrives almost a week later? Also the fact that they straight up didn’t send you something, and then refused to refund your money because you ‘waited too long to report it’? How were you supposed to report it immediately if the package was a week late? I’d raise hell if I were you. This place sounds like they’re scamming people, and getting away with it just because they’ve got celeb sponsors. If I ever considered giving Fashion Nova my money, that thought is dead.
They really do scam people
And the company is in California so you think they could have delivered it pretty quickly.
Happened to me before too! My order came in the day i left for vacation and a pair of heels i ordered was missing 39.99 and when i got back email them about it, got the exact response. Never again.
I’ve ordered from them a few times and never had an issue but it’s crazy how it took them a week to get her her items when fashion nova is L.A. based and she lives out there. I live in Palmdale (1 and a half hr away) and have always gotten my items within 3 days and never paid for overnight.
They said you waited too long to report it? Ummm well they took too long to overnight ship your items...so give this nova babe her nova money
Alex Q that confused me cause they tell you to wait if your item is late but if you wait too long then sorry can’t do anything for you
Bob Didlboc I guess that’s their master plan. To screw us out of money that’s not big enough to freak out about. It’s so wrong .
I’m absolutely addicted to watching your videos. I’ve been binging all of them for days now!
Love all your video genres, but my favorite are these buying and trying clothes ones. Your humor is definitely the best part of all of them!
Overnight shipping, delivered 5 days late. Glasses not delivered and they refuse to refund or replace them?
What kind of Cowboy customer service are they running?!
REPORT THEIR ASS TO TRADING STANDARDS!
especially with that hype. smh
I think that’s really interesting, cause I’m not too far from where Safiya is and I’m a loyal customer of fashion nova. I always pick normal 3-5 day shipping and I always get everything in 2-3 days
#GetSafHerSunnies
@@rachellamell7263 you know, that's fine, but they obviously didn't get her order right. She got her clothes not in 1 business day even though she paid 25$. They made a mistake and then they made her pay for something she didn't even get. I am glad that you like it and never had problems but the customer service seems to suck very hard based on Safiyas experience - and I hope nothing of your orders will ever be missing because I highly doubt they will treat you better.
Btw: Your comment seems like one of these "well I didn't notice something like this, so it wasn't happening", which is very small minded.
Rebecca S Oh gosh please know that wasn’t at all my intention. I was just thinking that it was interesting that it took that long since she and I are so close location-speaking. But no, you’re right, they did mess it up. That’s not uncommon with online shopping and has happened to me many times with various shops. Definitely did not mean to come across as small minded.
92’ Baby here! And that 90s crop top and pencil skirt was a loook ❤️❤️❤️
SpaceCoven ....... yea I just don't know how to feel about the shoes
loveddd it i need to recreate but perhaps without the shoes
