the cut off as you're listing out how people are going to be falling on their knees begging for you to tell them how to be cool is so funny

Love mixing boyish and girlish clothes in one outfit!! Gives it such an unique twist to an outfit 🫶🏻😊

Ah tysm!! Gonna pin this comment hehe 💞

[@oatmeal.05]

i was reading this because i didnt have time to watch the whole video until later but realized i already do all of these 😭

[@LifeofLucyLumen]

Totally agree with how much a unique hair cut or style can just totally elevate even an ordinary outfit and big yes to androgynous looks ALWAYS!

[@thrift-rat]

Glad you agree!! :) thank you for watching!

[@Demytybo]

Same here. I used to have a long hair and every outift looked of. My mum cut my hair in layers in a shaggy style a while later and the same outfits looked a lot better to me

[@lisalis5877]

Hard agree on incorporating bits and pieces you like of any aesthetic/core that fit *your* style! I also believe that most people’s personal style doesn’t fit into just one single aesthetic.

[@thrift-rat]

I 100% agree!! People with the best style tend to blend in different aesthetics. Thank you for watching!! (-:

[@PeachyXaesthetic]

GUYSSSS❗️❗️❗️ there is a thing called infinity bracelets, and they are bracelets that mean a lot to you, from friends, family, partners, ect and you NEVER take them off like once they’re on, they don’t come off, and yes, when you need to re-size them you can clasp them and unclasp them, but after that you don’t really take them off other than to move sizes, ect :)

[@jasmintea8825]

Heavy on the funky hairstyles, I always dye my hair for that reason, so even if I wear a basic outfit my personality is showing

[@user-nu5dw2sd1z]

Love this!! I especially agree with the wrong shoe theory, I'm butch/genderqueer + i just wear menswear but pairing that with weird platforms always looks so much cooler

[@thrift-rat]

The sickest pairing!!! (: ty for watching!!

[@miniamiiboo]

I draw a lot of inspiration from all forms of media I consume usually video games, anime and digital illustrations in general and I love approaching fashion in the same way ppl approach art bc I truly believe both art forms are best when you experiment with all the little ways you choose to express yourself. Not saying you have to go out in full cosplay everytime but personally I take every opportunity I can get to incorporate some sort of character design I like into my own outfits :p

[@joy0953]

Agreed on outfit repeating If it's slay for the first time, why doesn't it slay for the 2nd time?

[@lord_m0th]

I can proudly say that I actually do a lot of these things already💅🏻

[@thrift-rat]

which makes you effortlessly cool hehe

[@dirthmother]

A bold lip with the brows done a bit, the tiniest bit of mascara and some coverage for pimples (if you want) is one of my favourite looks ever

[@thrift-rat]

Yup! Looks good on EVERYONE :-)))

all this were good tips. Kinda already did a lot of them lol. I'm a dude and recently bought thighs and fish nets and good damn i love how they look!! also i love my shaggy mullet hairstyle i do by myself, and my black nails paired with my jewerly. You just gotta be yourself and your personality and aura will shine trough

[@outkast505]

I agree with this 100%. It's such a comprehensive list too AAA. I find it so cool when people rewear sentimental and statement pieces that represent their identity. It helps build personal style and a wardrobe that's quintessentially you. I also love how this video doesn't promote consumerism in the sense that you have to buy x, y, z. This is the first video of yours I came across and I can't help but subscribe already.

[@thrift-rat]

I'm so glad to hear that you resonated with my list! :-)) you're right! Didn't even realize that most of things can be found in people's wardrobes or be diy'd. Yay! happy to have to here, thanks for subbing

Tbh you just literally described me. I normally feel kind of embarrased about this stuff but you have just boosted up my ego so so much. Btw does a fanypack count as a bag? Bc I reall have no idea if it does, but I always wear a black leather fanny back were I have literally everything and my friends are so impressed yet scared as I always have what they need no matter how random it is (like for example I have a random plastic mini white lama???) lol it’s just the way I do things. I also wear all the jewlery that my friends and falily members give me so I have some stacked necklaces, I didn’t know it was a grend until one of my cousins fangirled over it.

[@thrift-rat]

Aw im glad, it definitely counts! Hehe I'm a huge fan of a bottomless pit bag. So cool! :-)

[@yeehaw-4532]

thank u sm for pointing out the white shirt under the sweater/crewneck, i always wondered why so many people looked cooler than me with them on lmao

[@thrift-rat]

Haha np glad I could help! (:

[@j4ne.d0e._.]

This somehow boosted my confidence, I am usually very careful with what I wear as I feel as if I need to live up to the standards/trends, now not so much? So thank you for this video lol 🫶 Also socks go so well with heels! mainly because in heathers the musical the heathers wear like a blazer and skirt (kind of like a school uniform but it's not) with knee high socks and heels, and the outfits are gorg

[@zendayaworship]

if you want tattoos but you're too scared/parents won't let you or something, you can always get henna or learn how to do it. it stays for about 10-14 days depending on how you take care of it, and it doesn't hurt at all :)

[@thrift-rat]

Great idea!!! (-:

my personal items that i wear every day are this necklace with a key pendant that i bought on an antique fair(?) from a really nice old man for 10 pln (so like 2.5 dollars) and a choker with an ankh that my mum used to wear when she was my age and gave it to me later. btw, i'm so happy that i found your channel, you seem like such an amazing and unique person

[@thrift-rat]

What a cute necklace combo! Even better that they have a little background story (: Ah tysm!! Means the world

[@PlushieMutant]

this is cute, fun video. i feel a bit iffy about baggy clothing being highlighted. its definitely aesthetic and i love seeing someone with that personal style, but i wonder how much of that appreciation hinges on our idealization of thin bodies and demonization of fat bodies. i feel like ill-fitting clothing is idolized on smaller people as a creative choice but considered lazy and shameful for larger people. i additionally wonder why clothes being too large is considered trendy, but clothes being too tight is taboo/trashy (less in the form-fitting, but more TOO SMALL).

[@thrift-rat]

Thank you!! (: Absolutely get where you're coming from! It's something that went over my head being "straight" sized so thanks for bringing it to my attention. Fashion should be about expressing yourself, no matter the size or fit and unfortunately like you said double standards continue to exist :///

[@snazzical]

i am a serial outfit repeater who loves customizing my everyday clothing items & bags so it came as a (happy) shock to me that some people find it stylish! i guess it's like being jon arbuckle (there are definitely more fashionable examples out there) but wearing the same iconic outfit once a week LMAO

Re: statement glasses- i recommend Zenni Optical, they're SO inexpensive vs traditional optometrists and have so many cute and fashionable choices! I have 4 pairs now including pink glasses when i wanna be fun and sunglass. You can choose to tint any frames u want :D Also, just wanna let ppl know that since Crochet is so trendy now, theres a lot of fast fashion versions out there, and they're to be avoided. Crochet can only be made by hand, and it can take hours even to make a small accesory. The ppl crocheting for fast fashion are getting paid next to nothing. Instead plz support small businesses, or learn to do it yourself, it's very fun

[@0vermyshoulder]

If you need to be told how to look cool or stylish, then you are not cool or stylish

[@thrift-rat]

You're entitled to your opinion but I'd argue that your statement assumes that being cool and stylish is an innate quality that cannot be taught or learned, which is not necessarily true. Many people develop their sense of style and coolness through exposure to different fashion trends, cultural influences, and personal experimentation. Seeking advice on how to enhance one's style doesn't negate someone's inherent coolness; it shows a willingness to improve and evolve.

[@0vermyshoulder]

@@thrift-rat yes that is my exact argument lol. Trying to force something like that just comes off as contrived and unnatural, like a cosplay. I’m not saying you can’t be influenced by things because everyone has an influence, I’m saying that purposefully seeking out how to look “cool” is just going to prove an opposite result
