Oh god, say what now... I can believe Wetseal is vintage but intricate beading and line work?! Hunny this stuff was drop-shipped before it ever was a thing. You would find all manner of filth on these 4$ specials.
Wetseal is along forever 21 pricing scale. That beading is done by machine. I have seen people do beading with machine thats why wetseal was able to sell it for cheap prices back then.
Yes! I had this shirt when I was a sophomore in high school and bought it at TJ Maxx for like 13 bucks for a party my friends and I threw! My mother always said everything comes back in style and I’m definitely watching 90’s/early 2000’s coming back.
I'm really not into fashion, but the 'vintage' part made my day. I'm 43. I already knew that I was on the path to geezerhood at 27 when I didn't know how to respond to being told my tattoo was 'sick.' I saw my childhood games being called 'retro' in 2015's Christmas season. My high school music is 'classic rock' now. Now, the clothes that were popular in my high school years into my early 20's are 'vintage.' This is awesome!
Fr! It made feel old when she said that 😂 also the fact that it was like $30 is ridiculous. That’s probably more than it was worth originally for a forever 21 quality top.
That pink wet seal top has a green & lavender sisters that still hang in my closet 😆🫶🏼 They are too pretty to be thrown in a thrift store. They have beaded details ❤ Very feminine top that stands out & still fits me! 😘
Well, Wet Seal was incorporated in 1990, so it's almost 40 years old. And if something is at least 20 years old and represents the styles and era of that time frame, it's considered vintage. That pink top was definitely pretty 90s looking (I'm 44, so I was there, lol!)
@@danalove6868 vintage also means it has to reflect the time period its from (20-100 years old) which this definitely does, cheaply made, poor detail and butterflies lol
I still have some wet seal pants from 2010. That said, I got the cutest sandals from there at the same time, and they broke within a few months. I was so sad...they were ones that you would string tie up your legs.
Came here to make this exact comment! A Wet Seal top survived 20+ yrs?! It's vintage if it's at least 20yrs old, correct? Regardless, I'm surprised it lasted a month w/o beads falling off or the lace ripping 🤯😳🤷🏼♀️
My mom has one just like that one that I loved as a kid! I wonder if she still has it. It was black instead of pink and had a pretty beaded butterfly on the front. Now that I'm older it's not my style and definitely doesn't suit me but it was a very pretty piece.
Hahah wet seal made the cheapest tackiest clothes in the early 2000s I can’t believe it’s considered vintage now and that anyone would be excited about it 😂
@@the2gayrats It's not even remotely grunge. It is 100% something the Olsen Twins, Lizzie McGuire, Lindsey Lohan, Paris Hilton, or even your run of the mill 15 year old girl would have worn in 2003.
"Vintage wet seal" 😆😆😆😆 Girl, I have at least a dozen of those still in my closet because I'm vintage. Btw, wet seal was basically a step up from Shein.
@@Meet-beep right!?? It’s hysterical! The way Kim K wore Marilyn Monroe’s dress recently, it will be some new starlet wearing “vintage fashion nova worn by Kylie waay back in the ‘20s”😂😂😂😂
Fun finds, but I have never thought of embroidery being included as grunge. The embroidered pants would cost too much for someone who wore grunge clothing. It was really big with the trendy people that wore distressed clothing.
FOR REAL! I'm VERY into grunge fashion and that has to be one of the worst things I've heard called grunge. Every time someone misuses the word grunge I feel a part of my soul disappear.
I worked at WetSeal 06-08. There were several items in the $30-$60 price range. Many of their stores were split between a dressy outfits and then the other side was casual, lightly priced, and more simplistic styles and designs. &yes it's considered vintage! Some of those items can be up to 34 yrs old.
Wayment….she just said “Vintage Wet seal top” I kept listening for a beat, the words processed, my heart fell into my stomach and I ran to the comments!! There hasn’t been a single thing that made me feel old like this 1 line in this video. I’m shook!
when hear vintage and "wetseal" or even "delia*s" I remember that that was 30 years ago for me and I'm now in my 40s, lol, because I called the 70s bellbottoms I got from the thrift store in the 90s vintage even though it was only 20 years prior, not even 30, lol
I gave away tons of Charlotte Russe, Wet Seal, Body Central, Rocawear, Akademiks, and Jlo stuff to Goodwill and a local thrift store years ago. A lot of the urban wear was new with tags. I am crying about it now. My closet is mostly now Express, New York and Company and Naked Wardrobe. I am 38 years old.
I feel this, and I am the worst at letting go of things like this but you have elevated your style and probably look much more stylish and put together in your new wardrobe. (28 y/o millennial here who is also transitioning their closet) I still have like 4 bags of items to bring to the goodwill and I keep thinking I'm going to regret something in those bags but I'm about to say F it. Lol
Girl I love thrift stores and cheapskate stores they just have unique stuff unlike normal stores who have a bunch of regular name brand stuff and I found a cool outfit and a pretty outfit at a store called Plato’s closet
remember when wet seal had that sale and there was something like a $.99 rack that basically had all the last season things but it was just so crazy to me lol
I love how she calls the floral embroidery on the pockets of the last denim skirt “grungy embroidery details.” Those designs on the pockets were one of the most preppy things when that trend was popular lol
I remember my mom taking me on a shopping spree when I was 14 at wet seal. I think she spent $400 which felt like a million dollars. So many overall dresses. Late 90s and wet seal was so cool
The belt buckle details you’re mentioning were on everything in the 00s. 😅 While I do appreciate seeing some things come back, I also kinda feel sick 😅😂
Absolutely not hating on girls who just naturally have smaller body types, all bodies are beautiful and deserve to feel beautiful in whatever they decide to wear. Clothes should be made to fit all bodies, big or small. That being said, I can’t help but spiral a bit when I see mini skirts that small 😰 I wouldn’t even be able to get either of those skirts above my knees- 😭
"Vintage wet seal" and "intricate details" are words that I would have never thought to have heard about that store.
Probably because the top is neither vintage nor intricately detailed. Wet Seal clothes = trendy & cheapy.

$29???? That wet seal top woulda been $15 new in the 2000’s. 😭😭😭
It was an original tag, meaning they put it for 30 but sold it for 10 or 15.

Not “vintage wet seal” lmao screaming 😂
If something is 20 years old isn’t that vintage ? In 2002 we thought something from 1985 was vintage , so …
Vintage Wet Seal is the funniest thing I’ve heard all day.

Same. The quality of that store was so bad. Crooked seams on every top.
Lol I felt so old when she said that, I modeled for wetseal back in the day lol
Yes 🤣
I came here to say this 😂😂😂
😂🤣 Wet Seal and The Rave were the kind of fast fashion you’d wear once or twice. We shopped for new tops every Friday and spent like $10 at most.
When you realize your teen wardrobe is now vintage 😂😂
Yeah I had that bag and those miniskirts.
Stop seriously 😂😂 thats what I was thinking.
Yep. Had that turtleneck ! Lol
We old.
This is seriously so confusing that teens now want to dress like this
Omg, I just died inside when she said “vintage wet seal top”! 😢
I died a little at "vintage wet seal" 💀
Same 😢😅😂😂
I know, right? She probably just could’ve come and dug in the back of my closet and found the exact same outfit.
I gasped 😮 "ATTACKED" is an understatement 😂😂

Good to know Wet Seal wasnt a fever dream! Havent seen that brand in forever...
It is a miracle that a wet seal top survived anything to get to the point of “vintage” 😂😂
Only because it was never worn...😅😅😅
*Bc it was never worn and contains more plastic than the Kardashians

I think garments over 20 years can officially be considered vintage, like how cars are (I think) 40…. However, I get it… 😂
Agreed it was the SHEIN of our generation haha
Vintage and Wet Seal are two things I never thought I’d hear paired together
"Grungy" that last skirt was more country😅😜
Exactly what I was gonna say..
i feel like it could be classified in “Y2K” or grunge aesthetic. i didn’t think country 😭
