I loved that this show had girls being smart and athletic while also keeping the fact that they were into boys and liked shopping. Growing up I thought that you could only be one or the other and this show was really an awakening.

[@valerykravtsova3345]

Omg, absolutely true 🙌🏻 💕

[@starstruck_sims]

that's one of the big reasons i loved that show!

[@tomokochan9128]

OMG YESSS!!

[@kingkooki7761]

i think i was too young for totally spies, but that belief annoyed me so much, and seeing my friends and i being stereotyped. like my smart friend was pretty so she wasn't actually smart. my athletic friend was girly so she wasn't actually good at sports. as well as some of the popular girls could literally run the world they were so pretty if they tried

[@teddies6549]

Definitely agree sam is the "nerdy girl" but she very stylish alex is also the tomboyish sporty girl and she's also very fashionable

[@Erika-xm2mi]

This goes to show how big of a budget Totally Spies had, it was one of the few (if not the only) cartoons whose protagonists wore different outfits every episode, their clothes also being a mirror of what was trendy at the time. I also have to give credit to the character designers because, even if the girls did have their own specific colors, they did sometimes put them in clothes that were outside of their personal color spectrum. If anything, Totally Spies was way ahead of its time.

[@Laurlxnbunny]

Yesss!! I absolutely loved it. It was such a diverse show yet at the same time they would stay true to its theme. Generally outfits don’t change for protagonist cause that can be quite complicated and problematic to keep up with, but this show beat that for sure!

[@swecheekypanda]

Alex was definitely my favorite as a kid but I rewatched it a few years ago and I relate more to Clover now as an adult and find her personality very entertaining. Also the outfits were definitely one of the things that made the show special. And the fact that the girls were so smart, clever and badass. It was really inspiring as a kid to see girls being praised for their intelligence and wit.

[@spectre9340]

I thought it was cool seeing cartoon characters change outfits every episode

[@blueberrymuffin113]

sam was my fav growing up since she was often seen studying but she didn’t miss out on any of the fun stuff and i‘ve always liked that balance 💚

[@candyc3314]

She was Rory Gilmore before GG became a thing. And when Rory isn't restricted to her school uniform, she has some similar fits to Sam. Especially when she's older and starts to wear more dresses and skirts.

[@princejellyfish]

wow what a good student, I liked Sam simply because she has long hair 😂

[@a.r.7885]

Sam was also my favourite !

[@eternalypissed]

I vividly remember pausing on looks I liked from the show and taking pictures of them as style inspiration on my flip phone! This show is pure perfection.

[@mosaselela6156]

me doing this rn

[@sonia0629]

How is this style called ??

[@QueenCloveroftheice]

I love that they wear different outfits every episode and that they aren’t color coded (Clover’s uniform is red, but she’s often shown wearing other colors like blue!)

[@trinaq]

Thanks for covering this show, Katie. It was practically my entire life back in the day! 💚💛❤️

[@Mariamox]

Yeah, I loved these types of shows like kim possible too

[@sellah3698]

I love totally spies so much!! You don't really see many kid-shows with female charachters who are both badass AND gentle, kind and compassionate as well as fashionable, pretty and smart and hardworking. The girls feel so realistic in that sense, and their friendship is so beautiful

[@mourninggirll]

I was definitely a Sam girly back in the day but I love Alex's confidence and personality!

[@novastarburst3939]

The blue outfit inspired by Sam really reminds me something Irma from WITCH used to wear in the comics. Both were my fave universes, as the girls all wear different outfits.

[@alexswan2975]

I love Totally Spies. They're the only cartoon that puts the effort in to animate each new outfit every single episode. Yeah there are other shows that do have more then one outfit (Kim Possible and Avatar: the last airbender) but it stays consistant throughout most of the episodes. Totally Spies have a new outfit every episode and most of them are pretty good too. They defiantly had someone in the fashion industry working on the designs for these girls. And a lot of money.

[@jemi_]

First of all I LOVE the dedication you put into this, from picking similar color combos and fits to even filming not 10 but 22 outfits!😍 As someone who's filmed lookbooks with over 15 outfits myself, I know that must've taken crazy effort but you kept every look absolutely stunning! And as a Totally Spies fan it was so great seeing my childhood dream outfits recreated 💜 I freaking LOVE your content!

[@noellevogel2469]

Love this video! I’ve always been a Sam girl myself, but always loved the style of all the girls! This show has me dreaming of lasers disguised as lipsticks to this day lol

[@emmasutton2688]

Absolutely amazing and incredible all the outfits were stunning and creative. Katie always makes amazing outfits and works hard and seen though the outstanding videos that she makes. Here is a video idea creating outfits inspired by album eras for example folklore by Taylor Swift or thank u next by Ariana grande.

[@siohead9021]

These were all such awesome outfits, and I love how you show 'wearable' and 'original' versions of different outfits - you put in so much effort and its super fun to watch you and plan my own looks :)

[@jadehull5777]

I’d love to see a Michiko and Hatchin look book, most of the characters have really nice outfits.

[@queenb2450]

I usually watch "What are people wearing in....Paris,NY" for fashion inspiration, but your videos ALWAYS give me the same inspiration because it's so creative. No one is doing it like you!

[@natalieko3468]

Went absolutely FERAL when I saw the video title!!!! I knew you would do such a good job covering this series (as you've done snippets before) but omg you've outdone yourself. I'm so amazed at your talent for outfit building, color theory, layering, balancing between costume/wearable, translating from a cartoon to real life. And you FED US SO MUCH. 22 looks???? My favorites were probably Look 3 (Clover's pink and red hearts), Look 5 (a surprising black and white casual slay from Clover), Look 8 (Mandy's purple Step On Me look, and the corset/top laying? Genius), Look 10 (Alex's red and blue skater fit), Look 12 (Nickelodeon Girl, lol), Look 14 (Sam's blue look, SO good, love the layering, idk how you did all the different blues and patterns together and it just WORKS), Look 21 (Yes, just YES, Clover's pink kitty cat look). Other cartoon girls from this time period that were serving looks were definitely the Hex Girls from scooby doo, and had a similar color-coded wardrobe. I would have watched an entire spin-off series of them. Ty for all your amazing content

[@gisela_oliveira]

I wish some company decided to make a spies live action series and have fans of the show work in the wardrobe/costumes, obviuslly with a lot of thifthing. It would makke it perfect

[@dreampinkreel]

This is the content I’m happy to coincidentally stumble upon. Everything is appealing to me, from the Totally spies nostalgia to the platform shoes galore - not to mention Kep1er’s Up! reference. If I could I would recreate look three since I’m keen on lovecore and your recreation was so pretty!! I think the only cartoons which are more fashionable are Monster High and Winx

[@greengrapesarebetterthanpu94]

As a kid I related to Alex cuz we were both shorter POC, but also cuz I took the most style inspo from her and still do, honestly. But I tended to like Sam’s color schemes more often and related to Clover’s boy crazy and shopaholic attitude and still do😭😭😭

[@pinkmilk1591]

These outfits were all so cute!!! Gosh I miss this show! Alex were such a damsel in distress too, I loved her!

[@sandral5588]

Loved the video! Jem and the Holograms was also a super fashionable cartoon in my opinion, just with 80’s fashion instead 💕💝

[@janne9582]

this is going to be so amazing for some insanely cool everyday inspo

[@jillibean7231]

May I just say that the shoes slayed in every outfit… 😮‍💨👌🏼

[@lorraine9841]

That pink Crank skirt with the kitten on it from Look 21 was also worn by an Apink member during their most recent comeback! (Not sure if it was on Chorong or Bom but it’s either one of them)

[@proseandcons7730]

you are a fashion queen! what you do is an art style and not everyone has the spunk, ideas and vision when dressing up! keep it up! i'd love to see more outfits inspired by cartoons/sitcoms/anime/disney etc.

[@evybb8718]

you literally have the cutest pieces ever! I don't think I've ever seen you wear a boring outfit

[@larissanascimento1035]

The vivid Y2K aesthetic! I love the character Sam! 💚

[@nehavasu8452]

[@katarinak9557]

Oh gosh I can’t pick a favorite outfit I just can’t all of them are so so good! I’m so thankful I’ve found you, you inspire me so much - you remind me to find inspiration everywhere, to be happy to get to dress myself every day and to be brave enough to express myself freely and confidently! You remind me how if I saw someone dressed like you in real life, I wouldn’t be able to stop thinking about it for probably weeks and wishing I could be their friend, and that’s kind of an amazing way to exist. You always make me feel like I’ve been transported to a colorful, happy, positive chick flick and I appreciate that little gift whenever you give it 💖🦋🌸 Sending you lots of love and happy vibes 💕💕💕💕

[@taeoppa04]
