Appreciate you actually giving advice with each piece and not just saying "a white tee shirt, good pair of jeans" you're explaining why and what too look for!!
ahh i work in fashion production & it’s so refreshing hearing someone speak in correct verbiage about the fit of clothes! i’m sure you learned so so much from owning & running uncle 🖤 keep up the amazing content & clothes
I really wanna buy some Uncle clothes, but bc of the price (of course, you pay more for sustainable and good quality), I'm a bit hesitant. Although there's a size chart, most of the pieces are modelled by ppl wearing sizes xs and small, so it's hard to gauge whether or not they'd fit me well. Would you guys be open to using more diverse-sized models in the future? Also, love you, Allegra!
Just want to second this! You'd think eventually it'd be in their goals to show a model with at least a size Large on..? But I know Allegra has said for sure that they are working on getting longs in the pants and I'm so excited I'm going to have to order.
Yes!!!!! Love capsule wardrobe videos! It’s all about quality over quantity. Not everyone has the budget or energy to keep up with constantly changing trends. Plus people forget it’s normal to wear the same items over and over again lol...
I bought the dark green uncle sweater last year and the shipping costs were crazy (I live in Germany) but honestly this is now one of my favourite pieces and I get compliments everytime I wear it so I am so glad I bought it😍
Some of these essential videos are kinda boring but I actually love how you went about it being very informative! And I really appreciate recommending the brands and specific pieces that work for you as well. Thanks Allegra!
This is so helpful, I was just thinking I want to get rid of a lot of my just filler clothes that sit in my drawer, taking up space, but that I never wear. Definitely more of a basics girl, so this is super helpful
This video came at the perfect time for me, because I'm currently changing my wardrobe into better quality basic pieces, but I'm still figuring out what I need and what I want. So thank you! Can't wait for part two! 😍
totally agree with tailoring jeans! i found a pair of black levis ribcage on clearance and got the leg taken in for a more straight leg fit... all together it was still way cheaper than paying full price and they look exactly how i want!!
I can tell that I only have Levis jeans and my size is 24 when I go to the store and simply buy it. But when I tried (vintage?) Levis from the 80s my size was 27. Maybe that is the reason behind the size differences when it comes Redone.
Janka Aisha Kovács totally could be! I love the redone jeans and I love vintage Levi’s but every time I order or thrift it’s different depending on style so I always aim bigger because then I can get them altered!
I always get so picky about my basics because I want it to last forever so thank you for the recommendations I’ve been waiting for your picks because I know you’re really honest.
I love this video and specifically love the collab! Found Mejuri from your channel and bought the same lil baby diamond necklace. Love that you collab with brands you actually really love. Authenticity is everything. 💞💞💞
*Likes the video once" Me : oooh this is such a great video let me like it *realising I already like it* over and over again... Such a great content 🙌🏻
It only took me 4 years to get all these basics 😅🤣😂🤣 First buy was the leather jacket. Just swiped the black blazer with a camel one. And went through multiple white sneakers until I found the perfect ones. I would add a striped top/ t-shirt/ sweater to the list, either black or white base. 🥰😘
Totally agree with the right type of jean. Love the ones that aren't too stretchy, and more so firm + the straight fit vs skinny ( i'm a thing girl so I like the fit of straight pants) Emphasizes my waist/hip area and less on my skinny legs lol
I would love a video on the pieces that you think make your personal style, like the fun statement pieces that you start adding when your basics are covered
Love this! I've been steadily paring down my wardrobe and really trying to focus on getting some solid basics. Just discovered Levi's Wedgie jeans (thrifted two pairs on Poshmark) and I'm loving them. Real denim makes a huge difference!
What size are you wearing in your turtle neck and white T-shirt? &Love all the clothing I have purchased from Uncle 💚 you can feel the material will last forever
You're totally right about looking for minimal to no stretch in jeans, but it's sooo frustrating to 'atypical' body types. For example, I have super curvy thighs when compared to my small midsection/belt loop area, but also quite a long inseam. At this point I'm convinced my perfect jeans don't exist. So I have to find companies that will do a long version but with a lot of room in the hips/upper thigh area...and I can't just go to plus sizes because then the waist is too loose and even the general fit is off. So confusing I literally haven't found any pair of jeans that doesn't have a major flaw in either the length/waist size/hip room... I don't want to be out here in skinny jeans or stretchy jeans. I'm tempted to just learn how to make my own out of denim fabric.
Actually...if anybody knows someone who will make custom jeans to fit the person, hit me up. Idk where to get that done, only ever used minor tailoring on dresses etc.
I love that you got your ears pierced in October bc I waited until I was 21 to get mine and I thought I was the only one who didn’t do it in middle school or earlier lolol
Is there anything you'd recommend in place of the white basics, i.e. white tee/white blouse for people that can't wear white? I have a pale skin tone and white washes me out sooooo badly.
what colour do you feel good in? how about gray? swap for that! if you want to keep it basic go for something without a pattern and not an out there colour so it lasts and you love it
Anyone else just miss fashion? And anyone you get “dressed” you feel sad because where are we going right now??
tammystiletto yup so i will love vicariously through youtube videos
Appreciate you actually giving advice with each piece and not just saying "a white tee shirt, good pair of jeans" you're explaining why and what too look for!!
the moment we all have been waiting for and it DID NOT dissapoint!!
💕

It is so cool to see Uncle Studios with so many different pieces now! They’ve grown a lot and I can’t wait for more from them!
Kudos to the team ❤️
means a lot 💛stay tuned for more!

just want to say i have a ton of pieces from uncle studios, and i can tell you they fit very true to size and the quality is incredible.
@@inalykowska agreed and I wear mine a ton and they still look new
Yes!!!!! Love capsule wardrobe videos! It’s all about quality over quantity. Not everyone has the budget or energy to keep up with constantly changing trends. Plus people forget it’s normal to wear the same items over and over again lol...
totally. i'm always willing to spend more on a basic item because I know it'll get so much use

I would love to get Uncle! The shipping costs to Europe just make it quite difficult :( Love from The Netherlands!
Oh yes, I would really like to buy Uncle but the clothing prices plus shipping makes it too crazy for us in Europe 🤯
I bought the dark green uncle sweater last year and the shipping costs were crazy (I live in Germany) but honestly this is now one of my favourite pieces and I get compliments everytime I wear it so I am so glad I bought it😍
I feel the same! But it’s worse for México 😂
Liefde! I miss the netherlands!
Same for me!(I'm German)
Thank you for explaining all the details as to what specifically to look for in each item! It really helps 👏
I agree! Super informative video 🙂👌🏼
cannot wait to absolutely SPLURGE on Uncle!! been watching you for so long and definitely love and support absolutely everything you do! keep it up gf
Some of these essential videos are kinda boring but I actually love how you went about it being very informative! And I really appreciate recommending the brands and specific pieces that work for you as well. Thanks Allegra!
i'm glad you liked it! a white tee doesn't always mean it's your favourite. so many things to look out for
This is so helpful, I was just thinking I want to get rid of a lot of my just filler clothes that sit in my drawer, taking up space, but that I never wear. Definitely more of a basics girl, so this is super helpful
feels good to purgeee
I love that you have dresses as your staples! Adore feminine pieces! ❤️💚

Loved this! Would like to request a workwear office capsule wardrobe xxx

V A thanks so much :)

amazing!! so fun

so worth it
I love your style Allegra! So chic and effortless 🤩 thanks for the video!
Love Redone jeans! Tip though: they run SO SO small!! I am a 24 (4) in practically every jean brand, but at Redone I am a 27 it's nuts.
That’s so weird haha. Why are jeans like men’s jeans?? They literally look for their waist size and length.
I find the same thing. I’m usually a 26-27 in most brands, like Agolde, but in
Redone I find I need at least a 29.
I can tell that I only have Levis jeans and my size is 24 when I go to the store and simply buy it. But when I tried (vintage?) Levis from the 80s my size was 27. Maybe that is the reason behind the size differences when it comes Redone.
Janka Aisha Kovács totally could be! I love the redone jeans and I love vintage Levi’s but every time I order or thrift it’s different depending on style so I always aim bigger because then I can get them altered!
I think its because they're vintage! im usually a 23 and in a 27 in redone / vintage jeans!!
Your makeup looks so beautiful! Loving this video.
Best ‘wardrobe staples’ video ive seen so far. Love your style Allegra!😍🧡

L.O.V.E. the red dress!❤️
Totally agree with the right type of jean. Love the ones that aren't too stretchy, and more so firm + the straight fit vs skinny ( i'm a thing girl so I like the fit of straight pants) Emphasizes my waist/hip area and less on my skinny legs lol
That trouser is so good! 😫
Sincerely - Uncle is genius. I have yet to find the perfect white button down and can't wait for your bloomers to be back in stock.
😊
love this video!!
I would love a video on the pieces that you think make your personal style, like the fun statement pieces that you start adding when your basics are covered
The video I've been waiting for 🥰💛
love your fashion content !!

good find! ya definitely makes a difference

Super excited for a new uncle button up. The only reason I didn't get the white one last time was because it was sheer
stay tuned!!
What size are you wearing in your turtle neck and white T-shirt? &Love all the clothing I have purchased from Uncle 💚 you can feel the material will last forever
ughh love this video so much + so excited for the next outfit looks!! what size are u wearing in the uncle white t in this vid?
small!

jeans are definitely a tough one
The content I never knew I needed
Hahahah right???
My heart sinks a little every time you mention the missing jacket
same
I love that you got your ears pierced in October bc I waited until I was 21 to get mine and I thought I was the only one who didn’t do it in middle school or earlier lolol
yassss been waiting for this!! thank you!xx
Thank you for this video -- liked getting your perspective on a capsule wardrobe. I am shopping on the Uncle site and do not see BIPOC models -- why?
I requested this video a while so glad you did it yayyy
She knows her stuff! :D
Mix and match ;-)
Is the white Uncle turtleneck being restocked anytime soon?
loved this vid!! rlly need to work on building my basics, what size do u wear in the uncle tunic??
i wear a size small!
Wow! Huggies, Never heard that term before. In the states we call them studs
the huggies are a close fitting hoop. we can them studs also!
Is there anything you'd recommend in place of the white basics, i.e. white tee/white blouse for people that can't wear white? I have a pale skin tone and white washes me out sooooo badly.
what colour do you feel good in? how about gray? swap for that! if you want to keep it basic go for something without a pattern and not an out there colour so it lasts and you love it
Allegra recommended jeans --> purchased! haha xoxo
haha yesss
@@allegrashaw you were right about the ribcage :-) Got the bootcut and the straight leg and they fit so well!! xx
Allegra could you compile a list of your favorite eco friendly clothing/accessory brands??
good idea!
This is so helpful!
Allegra your lips look GOOD. I like the bottom honestly its subtle but I think it just kinda makes it look perfectly balanced!
thank you!!
