I didn't think I'd participate in this trend at all, then remembered I have a beautiful sheer black dress (with gold polka dots!) for that exact reason.
I got the Steve Madden boots for my birthday this year and I didn’t even know they were such a micro trend until after I got them! I’ve specifically wanted long buckle boots like that for years now and when I saw an ad for them I fell in love immediately. Regardless of them inevitably falling off I’m gonna continue wearing them for as long as they hold up!
I think because they are, at their core, just a black boot, they won’t be so jarring to wear when “out of trend”. Esp if they look nice quality. Those shoes are cute and look very nice objectively and aren’t some random weird thing so I think that makes them more wearable for longer
I'm glad the color red has been trending because I avoided wearing red for years and I'm not sure why. It's my mom's favorite color, it was my grandma's favorite color, my favorite color is already pink... now I'm wearing it more often, we all look GOOD in red lol🤷🏾♀️
i’m not on tiktok but it’s funny how my knowledge of a trend changes when i’m completely unaware of it. the visceral reaction to the house of sunny dress is *there* but those moto boots (the steve madden ones as well as the other ones)? i love them and had no idea they were a trend (save for i think you mentioning them in a video previously). i LOVE red. it’s my favourite colour but i also think it’s one of those special colours that looks good on everyone! also BOWS! you we’re definitely the one that made me fall in love with braids and bows again!
Omg Alexa PLEASE do another collab with Jenna!!! Learning to crochet!! 🧶🎀 I LOVED the last one!! 💛 Edit: I’m back 😅 But who’s been here long enough to remember when Alex HATED red?? 😂❤
The Frye Boot is great support for us older girlies….i wear them with shorts, dresses, jeans…..etc. Find I’ve been wearing the red pair lots this winter probably because I can wear thick woolies with that particular 25:01 pair. I have many pairs….the black pair can go formal.
I love these videos because I never keep up with any trends so I love when you tell me what’s been going on this year 😂 I was like BOXER SHORTS? I steal my husbands sometimes so I may have to try that as an outfit!!! Haha and I also love bows! I’m so sorry about your hair, I had a similar thing happen to me a couple years ago, I have naturally curly hair and it was so long but I bleached it and on top of other damage it ended up snapping off at work one day a few months later 😢 luckily I had a lot of wigs so I’ve been wearing them ever since! My natural hair is finally starting to grow back (slowly but surely) so I’m definitely going to buy some new bows to wear for when I wear my hair down! I used to love buying bows off of Etsy in high school but I was always too afraid to wear them, now I’m going to see what they have and make sure I do! Also those red boots are HIDEOUS 😂 loved the video Alexa!! You’re so freaking gorgeous btw! Hope you have a wonderful holiday season ❤❤❤
When I was 10 in 2001, my crush got black Sambas with white stripes and I loved them so much and I also wanted to impress him so I made my mom go to like 3 different stores to find them and I finally found them and I LOVED THEM!!! I played soccer and I loved how they look like cleats. I wanted to love them now that they’re back in fashion for nostalgic purposes and because they were actually a huge part of my style back then but I don’t think they would go with my style now, I like a chunkier shoe now. It makes me sad though because every time I see them I think of how integral they were to my style as a child, it was the first time I was able to pick out my own shoes so it was really the start of my style journey. Maybe I’ll find a way to style them that I like but I haven’t found anything on Pinterest or Instagram so far, maybe I’ll figure it out in 2024. I wish I could find pictures of little me in the Sambas! I always thought I was so uncool and it’s kinda nice to think that maybe I was just ahead of my time by like 20 years lol
I feel a similar kind of way about red Converse (or more likely Converse knockoffs?). Really wanted them as a tween, found them super versatile and wore them with all kinds of outfits but just couldn't buy them now even now Converse might allegedly trend again because I associate them so much with that time in my life.
It’s so funny how I had my own year of silver metallic shoes in high school, and silver metallic in general for one spring. We have our personal micro trends.
ok also, putting bows in your hair was life-changing for me as well! it just takes me back to when I was little and would put bows in my hair for special occasions and doing it now just takes me back to that happy, innocent, nostalgic place and im never going to stop doing it, even if the trend dies
I can't believe I haven't seen anyone mention the ugg-boots trend that has been going on the whole year!! I personally love the tasman style, any other not so much hahaha
i love off the shoulder tops! i have wide shoulders and they look really flattering on me. plus i love that i can incorporate my bra straps into the outfit because i can’t really go braless and i hate strapless bras. but yeah the fact that they tend to move around a bit is annoying. but some of them are sewn in a specific way that makes them easier to wear
I just started college and I've seen hardly any of these trends actually being worn. Most girls are just wearing leggings, yoga pants, jeans, or mid length skirts with coats now that it's winter. However, I just bought those exact same silver mary-janes at shown 16:37
I love these series of videos from you! Im from a european country and the trends are soo different! The only ones that are similar are the ballet shoes and red everything! ❤
I have a pair of vintage mui mui biker/buckle boots that I love but they aren't comfy. I don't really follow trends, I just wear what works for me.. I do find trends interesting. The off the shoulder thing, you are so so right because they never fit just right on ne.
I love the moto/racing jackets trend, I think they make an outfit effortlessly cool. I got into F1 last year so I've been eyeing the ferrari one for a while but, it's so freaking expensive like, it almost got to 200 dollars approx here in arg, so I'll admire it from afar
omg I have this same video going live tomorrow and we have so many of the same opinions hahah---but not all the same👀 Regardless I respect your trend opinions🫡🫡🫡
I'm really not a sneaker gal either. I'm a boot girl through and through. I have 1 pair of platform black converse and that's the only sneaker I like with my style.
Tabis are the trend that people are seriously going to be most embarrassed about seeing in their photos a few years from now. Fashion victim at a premium price. Honestly so much of designer fashion seems to be about finding out how much of a free-spending impressionable pushover their customers are.
I’ve been wanting the buckle boots so bad!!! They’re so cute to me (but I also have always loved riding boots) I’m kinda hoping people donate them soon so I can get them😈
your hair looks so cute like that!! :D love your videos a lot! I think you would like crocheting. repetitive motion activities are super good for the brain!
The sheer dress you showed by sheer clothing would be perfect to wear a slip dress under. Sheer clothing is nice for layering. But I also get that is not something everybody would love.
Fun list, happy almost 2024! I don’t follow fashion trends but it’s still fun to see them come back! I am old enough to recognize a lot of these trends from over a decade ago, and it’s so funny how things truly are cyclical. Though I don’t know if boxer shorts have ever been a trend to wear (specifically for women in public), that one’s definitely a surprise but maybe it was a thing before and I missed it 😂!
I love metalic shoes and I ve been waring buckled boots and booties since the 80s Of the shoulder sweathers are just unpractical here. Nice and warm but cold shoulders and neck is just weird and stupid I love the floral choockers and brooches, will keep waring them So happy Tapis didnt get in style here. I love your striped leather jacket Alexa I love bows too, might but cute bows on a fiew of my simple sweathers X
You just motivated me to pull out my bag of boots. Now that I have them out, I will wear them. Also, the best time to thrift boots in LA is summer. All my boots are thrifted.
*gets in my wayback machine* Def used to wear mens boxers to highschool circa '95 Generally they always had a sports logo tho. I never really thought this would make a come back. Lol, but its making me feel like maybe i was cooler than i thought.😂
Those stupid red monstrosities. There is a store that has a pair in the window that I think are just there to grab attention. I was around for the bows in the 80s and I gave them a pass.
Next time you should add a column for “leave it to Hollywood” like it’s cool if your famous but not practical for normies
This is a great idea !!
All the sheer stuff is really nice for layering in goth fashion, especially whimsy goth style.
I didn't think I'd participate in this trend at all, then remembered I have a beautiful sheer black dress (with gold polka dots!) for that exact reason.
Yesss. Im goth and at least half of my wardrobe is sheer stuff 😭
The ballet flat scrappy sneakers remind me SO MUCH of traditional Scottish dancing shoes so for that reason I love them.

Can't believe we're going into 2024!
definitely get jorts for the summer. they’re comfortable and easy. especially in southern cali which i’m also at haha
I'm glad the color red has been trending because I avoided wearing red for years and I'm not sure why. It's my mom's favorite color, it was my grandma's favorite color, my favorite color is already pink... now I'm wearing it more often, we all look GOOD in red lol🤷🏾♀️
You influenced me to try the bow trend, and now it's part of my style!
The boxer shorts trend is crazy to me because I see people talking about it online but have literally never seen it in the wild.
That animal print top looks so good on you!
My top tier would be red, boat neck, and the moto boots. 😍
i’m not on tiktok but it’s funny how my knowledge of a trend changes when i’m completely unaware of it. the visceral reaction to the house of sunny dress is *there* but those moto boots (the steve madden ones as well as the other ones)? i love them and had no idea they were a trend (save for i think you mentioning them in a video previously). i LOVE red. it’s my favourite colour but i also think it’s one of those special colours that looks good on everyone! also BOWS! you we’re definitely the one that made me fall in love with braids and bows again!
i am living proof red doesnt look good on everyone but doesnt stop me from wearing it haha
Omg Alexa PLEASE do another collab with Jenna!!! Learning to crochet!! 🧶🎀 I LOVED the last one!! 💛

Boxers are so cute I have always loved them as fashion. If I were young I would try them with garters like Madonna did in Desperately Seeking Susan.

i think the leather/moto jackets will be timeless. they are practical but still so cool
yeees! 🙌🏻
ok also, putting bows in your hair was life-changing for me as well! it just takes me back to when I was little and would put bows in my hair for special occasions and doing it now just takes me back to that happy, innocent, nostalgic place and im never going to stop doing it, even if the trend dies

omg just wanted to say you look absolutely stunning! the makeup, the outfit, it's absolutely working on you
i love off the shoulder tops! i have wide shoulders and they look really flattering on me. plus i love that i can incorporate my bra straps into the outfit because i can’t really go braless and i hate strapless bras. but yeah the fact that they tend to move around a bit is annoying. but some of them are sewn in a specific way that makes them easier to wear
You’re one of the many RUclipsrs who started my passion for fashion and it makes me very happy to see us agree on these new trends
😊
Ah 💘 means so much!!!!!
Alexa, you got me into finding vintage, grandmacore, cottage core crewnecks while thrifting! Merry Christmas! 🎄❄️🎅🏻☃️
Yes!!!!!!! Omg hope you have found amazing ones!!!
Me tooo!!! Found an adorable basic editions vintagr one!

Thank you for always using some plus size models for your examples! ❤
I would love to thrift a top like the one you’re wearing, so cute!!
I’m wearing those buckle boots till the end of my life tbh 🥺 they go w everything
I love these series of videos from you! Im from a european country and the trends are soo different! The only ones that are similar are the ballet shoes and red everything! ❤

The red boots would come in handy being a cartoon character as a Halloween costume, but I can’t imagine any other time I would wear them
I think you were spot on with where you placed things! Love your videos
i loved this vid! also your hair looks so pretty!! 💗
I love the moto/racing jackets trend, I think they make an outfit effortlessly cool. I got into F1 last year so I've been eyeing the ferrari one for a while but, it's so freaking expensive like, it almost got to 200 dollars approx here in arg, so I'll admire it from afar

Omg cannot wait to see what your thoughts are 😍 I respect whatever smack talk you talk about my favorites haha ❤️
I'm really not a sneaker gal either. I'm a boot girl through and through. I have 1 pair of platform black converse and that's the only sneaker I like with my style.
The underwear as pants is just 80s superman 😂 It's not fashion. It's cosplay.
Lol. I think it's funny that everyone was into the boxer short trend this year because I remember doing that when I was 14 in 2005
Love your videos❤. Also your make-up and hair look amazing today.

I'm m on trend and didn't even know it with my 2 pairs of silver metallic shoes! My crow brain just likes shiny things.

The moto boots and moto jacket are my fave trend 😎
you look so good and loved the vid ⭐❤️
Love that darker haircolour on you❤ and it's always fun to see what's trendy in another part of the world 😅 it's so different from trends in germany
Love this :) (also that top looks amazing on you!!)♥
Thank you !!!! ☺❤
Why is nobody talking about vintage reworked quilt jackets? I think those are gonna be big next year
Good morning alexa happy Sunday morning and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing
I love metalic shoes and I ve been waring buckled boots and booties since the 80s
Of the shoulder sweathers are just unpractical here. Nice and warm but cold shoulders and neck is just weird and stupid
I love the floral choockers and brooches, will keep waring them
So happy Tapis didnt get in style here.
I love your striped leather jacket Alexa
I love bows too, might but cute bows on a fiew of my simple sweathers X
your makeup and hair in this video are SO GOOD
thank you !!!! 😭❤
You just motivated me to pull out my bag of boots. Now that I have them out, I will wear them. Also, the best time to thrift boots in LA is summer. All my boots are thrifted.
Omg!! Yes make-up is giving🎀🍎
Thank you for sharing !
*gets in my wayback machine* Def used to wear mens boxers to highschool circa '95 Generally they always had a sports logo tho. I never really thought this would make a come back. Lol, but its making me feel like maybe i was cooler than i thought.😂
PLEASE!! The red plastic boot things, they remind me of Olive Oil (from Popeye) for some reason and I agree with you. We should leave them behind…
I feel like 4 should be 3 instead on the ranking system
I agree
Yeah definitely should have put something else there because it definitely would make way more sense 😭
yes, I was gonna say the same thing. "Appreciate from afar" sounds a lot more positive than "go girl give us nothing"
We don't play baseball in the UK but we play football hahah, which is your equivalent of soccer!
I wore the h3ll out of my silver loafers. When I was 16. In 1986. 😆
The red boots are horrific. I don’t understand how anyone decided they were a good idea. 💀
5:44 those boots only work for cosplayers
I wear boxer shorts and a tank top for bed.
I'm so out of the loop with trends is really what you consume on social media 👍 where what you like ❤
Big difference in looking at pictures on social media and actually going out and observing what people wear in real life
Those stupid red monstrosities. There is a store that has a pair in the window that I think are just there to grab attention.
I was around for the bows in the 80s and I gave them a pass.
No, no baseball in the UK. We have cricket instead.
Live in NYC. Never seen anyone wearing boxer underwear as outerwear. Not trending in my world plus who buys used underwear
The red boots look like people have cartoon feet. No! And as someone who lives in a cold climate still NO!
Girl be careful with second hand boxer shorts
Why? Cos it's "icky?"
My my, has the year gone by so fast 🥲
isn't it wild!!
I feel like they were all negative columns except the 1st one 😭 lil harshh lol 2:29
