babe wake up Laini just posted and is calling out chronically online-ness again
i am torn about wearing "weird" or "ugly" clothing to be considered fashionable. I get it, but sometimes it just doesnt feel genuine and its more like people straight up replicate what they see online. I feel like before social media being as popular as it is now people's clothing actually spoke about themselves, and you could get some idea about their music taste, etc. (for example emo, goth, western...??) but nowadays it is harder to read that becuase of the constant trend cycle. Not that experimenting with different styles is bad, but you know what i meannnn.
I know exactly what you mean. The first person wearing something unusual is being creative and playing around with style. But the next 10 people seeing the pic and replicating that same "experiment" without the intention behind it is really obvious and booooring
I didn't know there's some negativity towards tortoise shell buttons! However I majorly dislike large "gold" buttons, I think that often cheapens knitwear and blazers that would look much better with understated, neutral buttons.
also they’re almost always gold, I always wear silver jewellery and I think it can look weird with the big gold buttons
I think the reason people keep saying things like "my personal style" or "your personal style" is because the phrase "personal style" has become a collocation, sort of like saying "merry christmas" even though "happy christmas" means the same thing. It's so common to hear those words together that some people feel uncomfortable when they aren't together, because it feels half-finished. Basically, they're perceiving "personal style" as a single unit instead of two pieces. It's a really neat linguistic pattern!
You’re so right!!!
Maybe when someone says "personal style" they're injecting an element of humility into it. If you just said, "I have style," it sounds like you're bragging, but "personal style" is more like "I like it, but you don't have to."
yeah i feel like copying what other people are doing can still make u stylish and be like oh thats my style bc i wear it, but ur personal style is used colloquially to mean what YOU think looks good regardless of trends and popular fashion
I had no idea that people hated on tortoise shell buttons. I thought they were timeless lol
I love tortoise shell everything 😩
@@girlpaintsworldme too!! i don't get it
@@reykuadrat more for us 🤪
I actually hate so much when people use words as art at all times.. on clothes, as home decor (live laugh love) or as tattoos even. Words are meant to depict visual ideas, just use a symbol! Or at least pick a good font if anything.
I agree minus lyric tattoos!
I agree w you 100%. But when I lived in Japan, I thought, why is it that calligraphy as art is so beautiful when it's kanji and so dumb when it's the ABC's? Is it because we can't read it? Is it because kanji began as pictograms? I still ponder this.
@@thisismerying111 Unpopular opinion: even lyric tattoos make me secretly think the person's is uncreative, because they can't find a visual symbol/metaphor to represent the lyrics. Just using the words as they are feels kinda lazy, come up with a visual metaphor! Use your brain lol (PS. I would never say any of this to people with lyric tattoos, I'm only admitting it because this is an unpopular opinions themed video lol. )
@@chamomilde3140 I get that sometimes, but sometimes certain phrases and lyrics mean more to a person than an image would. Like personally, the phrase “I forgive it all as it comes back to me” means more to me than a visual image would if that makes sense
@@thisismerying111 I totally get that. Hmm if I were to think of an image to represent those words for me personally, I would get a tattoo of a tide coming in, as if it were coming back to me. Or a bird with a ribbon untied around his ankle, as if he were let free, and then it's his choice if he returns. I love thinking of visual metaphors for the words that mean a lot to me, it makes me feel as if my thoughts are art.
I hate when people say 'side profile'. It's just profile.
You get it
Theres actually a word for when you accidentally say the same word twice - it's a 'tautology'! People use it all the time and it drives me nuts - see 'PIN number'!!!!!!
What else am I supposed to use to get into the ATM machine? 😂
100%%%% for the graffic tees!!! I don’t understand why the pocket placement is so popular 😭
For me Is very practical to take off my rings and watch when i wash my hands or do dishes so i even added one to a t shirt 😮😂
@@calvarezfabio2415 The pocket doesn’t bother me as long as it’s not on the side haha I hope you added your pocket on the middle of your shirt 😂
The point you made about having to have something ugly in your outfit for it to be fashionable is just silly to me. Your wire glasses aren’t ugly
im dying bc i went on the EXACT same specific leather rant in my video thats coming out in a couple days. agree w so many of these. also lolling at the word-redundancy rant, i love it
i love the boderline ugly bit. I had a realization a couple years ago that not everything has to be pretty and sparkly. I can also like ugly pieces cause it's unique and silly.
I love writing on clothes oops like pls get me t shirt with I
Ash is in the house!! Everybody go follow her!!
@@susanma4899 hahahah pls ur a sweet pea xxxxx
Having opinions that are different than the main stream does not make one a b*tch. YOU, Laini, are not a b*tch for having opinions that don’t align with the main stream.
Loved this video!! ❤❤❤
Tortoise shell is classy I love it
omg the bit about redundant wording is so funny but I totally get it, loved this vid!!
My dad never let me wear shirts with big graphics on the front of them like band tees, kids tees with big cartoons on them, shirts with words on them, etc. because he says they’re tacky and to this day at the ripe age of 27 I own very few shirts with big graphics on the front just because that’s now always in my head. The ones I do have are usually for sleep. I don’t mind other people wearing them but I hear my dad every single time I look at one 😅
i had that parent too!
i just turned 60 & have started collecting fun black t-shirts w graphics--MTV, Star Wars & of course Taylor Swift
I have absolutely loved tortoiseshell everything since high school, specifically glasses and hair clips. BUT I do not like the buttons for some reason lol
I feel this way. I think they just often seem like a random/easy choice. Love tortoiseshell everything else though.
lovee this video!! and about personal style, it is so much more than just clothes. manners, interests, hobbies, expressing our emotions etc. all of that is reflected on the outside.
Ugh Laini, the baby bangs are tempting me!
They are so incredibly CUTE on her!
Girl, we have very similar styles. Obviously you have your own unique ways of going about it. But when I hear you talk about fashion or see you put some outfits together I feel so validated. I’ve literally said out loud “EXACTLY!” While watching your videos 🫶🏻lol
i think some tortoise shell buttons can look cheap, and when they’re bad they’re really bad but i agree, i usually like them too!
IM SO ALIGNED W YOU ON THE T-SHIRT LOGO!!!! I see so many cute graphics on the back get ruined for me with the pocket logo on the front. HAAAATEEEE ITTTTT🎶
Hey Laini! I love your videos💕 i would love to see some baby outfit ideas, i think it would be sooo cute (ofc without showing the baby’s face - love that you respect their privacy)
Omgg I would love that too!! Trying to get ideas for my baby❤️❤️
I would love some baby content too! I’m currently 5 months pregnant and already can’t wait for the cute baby outfits 🤭🤭
I LOVED the “personal style” rant! Totally agree🫶🏽
Not you calling the glasses I wear every day ugly 💀💀🤣🤣🤣
BIG ON THE PERSONAL STYLE PAAAARRRTTTT it is redundant 😭 im not on ig, tiktok or pinterest and i hear it sooo much
i was literally shopping with my mum today for cardigans bc its winter here in nz, and i was like oh i love tortoise shell buttons, it adds so much character to a piece and honestly kinda gives me grandma vibes in a .. rlly good way! 🥰😌
your hair looks so so so cute
Something I hate about the internet is when it makes a phrase so popular it doesn't have actual meaning anymore. Like you said, what makes something a "personal style" and not just a "style"? I think it probably had a distinct meaning when people first started saying it but it got repeated so much it turned into redundant mush.
Band name: Redundant Mush
Hey! The bangs are back! They're so cute.
I hate the tourtise shell buttons because they are a symbol of fast fashion. They are the cheapest to manufacture because they dont require special pigments to be mixed in. They are generally a bunch of different plastic materials just melted down together, and they are not ACTUALLY shell buttons like they used to be. Real tourtise shell buttons are made form Keratin, but the ones you are seeing are made of a polyamide mixture which inherent makes them super cheap to manufacture and then look cheap while wearing because I have eyes and I can tell they aren't actually made of shell.
Seems to me that if a garment is poorly made, the buttons are really the least of your worries.
i could listen to you for hours!!!!! i have a sag moon so i love to hear all kinds of opinions so please keep posting these fun videos!!!
Tortoise shell buttons are so cute!
Had no idea there was any hate for tortoiseshell buttons?! I mean, what's supposed to be better? I personally am not a fan of metallic buttons. Sometimes they are okay, but if they're cheap...ugh. That kind of military dress uniform thing is not really my vibe. Fine for others, but not me. I also dislike buttons that look like literal pearls (except on a wedding gown). I've always found them v old lady, which I know is cool now, but when you actually ARE an old lady (like me) you don't want to dress like one.
where I grew up, patent leather was an acceptable way to wear dark colored shoes, handbags, or belts in the summertime. The shiny finish made it look less heavy and wintery.
laini i love you but that graphic of the pocket tee is so funny 😭😭😭
Laini this video was so refreshing and so needed
(PS definitely used the phrase "your personal style" in your recent lookbook, but I feel like you're so right about that one and now I may need to phase it out lmao)
U can do no wrong🫡
About the "not everything looks good on me": I think when you wear something outside of the lines that flatter you most, it gives an intense and particular vibe. That in itself is neutral, what makes it good or bad is how the vibe of the shape matches the clothes' vibe and how you want to draw attention to your body.
For me, I like to draw attention to my shoulders and make them more pronounced, it feels so fun and powerful to go into that androgynous vibe, esp with slightly dainty clothes.
But the culture my mom was brought up in is very different - she never gets these outfits (she thinkss I look to manly), and that's totally fine :)
I do hate it when people say "waist belt" and "trouser pants." Talk about redundant, ugh.
I love this video because its really inspiring. But also so fun to hear you talk about these things. I laughed so many times
I love your fashion insight videos 🙌
Whenever I feel too sick of alexasunshine83 positivity "you do you", Laini comes out with the hating to balance things out. And whenever Laini gets too hatey, Alexa is there to say kind things. Balance
Love your videossss !!!
i have been thinking the same thing about tortoiseshell buttons for so long 😭 like i love them why am i afraid to wear them
you talking about the "no more sharing" thing made me think that you should do like an outfit building telephone game
Omg
Keep sharing your opinions! They’re YOUR opinions! Also, it’s very refreshing/interesting to hear alternative ideas and bit just the same ol shit!
I had no clue people were beefing with tortoise shell buttons??? Who are these people 😂 where are they 😂
You’re giving Dakota Johnson vibes with your style today and I loveeeee it ❤
i LOVE a good tortoise shell button! i do think there’s some that look cheap specifically on fast fashion clothes butttt tortoise shell buttons overall are classic and i will always love them lol
You've voiced my thoughts exactly on many things. This whole time, I thought I was insane. 😅
I did not find this video to be negative at all! You were just sharing your thoughts! As for the tortoise buttons I personally do not like them on myself, but thats because when I was younger I would buy any item on clearance at the mall without thought so it reminds me of how I was wasteful in buying clothes I would never even wear.
The personal style thing is so true and it can become redundant. I agree that it is just style. It does not have to have personal in front of it because the word style already is individualistic.
Also, the take about the links I agree soooo much. It is way better when we allow people to develop the skills needed to search for themselves. Its good when they can use the description you provide of the item to find one that is unique to them instead of having the exact same thing!
7:53 I WOULD NOT LIKE IT HERE OR THERE I WOULD NOT LIKE IT ANYWHERE 😭 I’m dying this is so funny but real !!
100% agree on the point that there are some colours, cuts and fabrics that just don’t suit certain people and if we know each other fairly well I will probably tell you. I will however also tell you why it doesn’t suit you and opinions how to fix it. I think we should be more honest with each other 🤷🏻♀️
ive been trying to get over wearing graphic tees all the time because wearing words on my clothes is suddenly giving me the ick and i think it's bc of you 😂
u are so pretty
the “my personal style” is like people saying “in my personal opinion”
drives me NUTS
(english teacher here!)
The problem isn't with tortoiseshell itself
it is with how it is so often used as an inexpensive default option with no thought being given to how it suits the garment...not even any thought given to which tortoiseshell button to use, gloss or matte, flat or rimmed, pale or dark, the scale and contrast of the mottling etc. There's no intention there.
i can always count on your opinions to be sound and well argued!!!
Lmao! that sheet dress is from BR and I love it😂 I tried it on in store and it was so comfy
Love your top
Hm 🤔 sometimes I do make a distinction between „I would…“ and „I personally would…“ . If a friend asks me what shoes I would buy I would answer „I would buy the brown boots „ when I am referring to what I perceive as their style and what I think would fit their wearing habits and wardrobe best but I would say „I personally would buy the red crinkle leather heels“ because I might like them better for the outfit and in general but I would also know that my friend might not wear them too much 😅
omg ive never been here this early, not even 10 minutes. Love you Laini.
okay yes about tshirts on your neck
love you the tortoiseshell button rant made me laugh. agreed
11:20 reminded me so much of miuccia prada's ugly chic, love it
Omg the shirt you’re wearing 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍😍
Tortoise shell buttons make me nostalgic for high school lol
what bothers me with tortoise shell buttons is when they’re ONLY on the white or cream color of the sweater. all the other colors will have matching buttons except white or cream and it doesn’t look as sleek imo
I "hate" when ppl say "for me, personally" NO! just say for me, or personally 🤭
I think the exception to text on clothes is I ❤ “ “ shirts for example I just ordered a shirt that says I ❤ submissive men and I do think that is fashion
you look like miranda from lizzie mcguire , ur honestly so pretty
This is a banger damnnn
Love this one!❤
MISSED YOU 🥰
Yes I'm so glad you're defending tortoise shell buttons!! I don't understand why they're getting so much hate, I definitely prefer them to normal buttons
I frikking hate patent leather too, it looks so cheap always, I feel seen.
I realized wouldn’t buy or wear camo print, even if I think the piece itself looks cute, because my mom once told me she doesn’t like it (because it looks like a military uniform) when I was like 10.
When I was 12 or 13, my dad looked at me and said to my mother, "make her go change" ... I still remember what I was wearing... Yellow fishnet stockings, a sleeveless striped top and yellow mini skirt, white patent leather Mary Jane shoes. I am now 69. In my closet includes a wedding dress, a batman t, a vintage boy scout shirt, numerous kimonos, high top laceup to knees vintage converse, a kid's Barbie purse... Shall I go on? 🤣
i’ve been hating for the last couple years tops & cardigans that have string ties in the middle ! the strings just sag and look so poorly made i would rather have a button or it stitched on the inside yall know what im talking about??
My observation about t-shirt logos: in the 70s they were just starting out and not trying to be too creative about it. In the 80s it was all about HUGE graphics, esp words--like Esprit or Gitano, etc. In the 90s there was a backlash against that--the small graphic in the center near the top was such a 90s thing. After that I lost track. I guess anything goes these days. But yeah, weirdly positioned on the b88b bugs me.
no babe I LOVE tortoiseshell buttons I agree
Idk if someone else feels the same but I have a slightly different style depending on events or people at them. A watered down version, a more acceptable version. And I can imagine people with strict parents, school uniform/work uniform or who by policy have to exclusively wear certain colours/styles/fabrics cuts would probably back me on this: the acceptable version of me has less to do with me and more with societal pressure. I am also a cold-ish weather (autum or early spring) type person and both my summer clothes and winter clothes are a very poor representation of my taste (in the cold because of the huge jacket, in the summer because i can't wear any jacket because I am very bad with heat and sometimes pass out. Most of the time when people talk about personal style they talk about what clothes feel like you, what gives you a day long dopamine/confidence boost to wear. What is something you actually love wearing for yourself not because it is expected of you.
I'm with you all the way 💯 ❤
1. tortoise shell buttons look ugly. Don't like the swirls.
2. Idk, both are alright.
3. Yup accessories matter, I'm trynna work on that.
4. Idk looks cute.
5. Its a vibe, I like it!
6. Sure
7. That's a smart idea!
8. Animal skin/print on accessories, not clothes.
9. Eh whatever.
the repeating music is so baaaad :'''D Im sorryyy
what lipstick are you wearing?
Does anyone know the exact model of the Vivienne westwood shirt at 8:06 ? I bought the black orb Peru shirt but it’s not as short as hers and the material seems to be thinner so now I wonder what her model is.
personal style is such an ick of mine for the last 10+ years. like the insistence that some people have it and some people don’t. everyone has “personal” style if they dress themselves. stupid phrase.
These critical thinking videos are why you are great ❤
Does anybody know where the red cardigan with the colourful buttons at 05:20 is from? Thank you!!
when are the strawbaby tees coming back??
On everyting isn't for you comment I feel it's also a vibes/personality thing. A lot of times I'll see things at the thrift and be like 'oh there is a certain type of person with a certain type of vibe that would LOVE this'
hi laini
agree i really dislike croc and snakeskin
Ive never been this early!!?
the fact that there are debates on BUTTONS??? pls XD
I have this same rant about the phrase “in my personal opinion” 😂 it’s redundant bestie. But in all seriousness, I think people use the word personal as a qualifier to stress that they’re not pushing their opinion on anyone else.
That’s so true!!!
Does anyone know what lip produt she is wearing? Its so beautiful
She has a video from 5 months ago where she shows her makeup routine so it might be there.
But I have an identical lip look and I do brown lip liner topped with Hourglass’ Phantom volumizing glossy balm (i use the shade Lure but they’re all beautiful).
@@spacebar9733 thank you :)
there’s a little bit of hater-ation in this dancery but it’s okay cus it’s ✨b a l a n c e✨ lol 💗
