[@pedanticm]

What if y'all did a thing where you traded off and styled someone - from their own closet? Without buying more fast fashion, find interesting ways to breathe fresh air into a style they hadn't considered yet?

[@rocsiali4092]

Yes!

[@miranda01mi]

this is smart!

[@pedanticm]

You could even do a thing where every day of the week is a theme, and the people being styled could come up with what *they* would have picked before they were styled, and you can compare theirs and the styled look?

[@relitin]

Yeeeees!! This!! I was just about to write a comment about how I really like this type of a video but I can’t watch them anymore because I just think about all the unnecessary fast fashion that they need to get for these videos…

[@oooladip]

what a great idea!

[@maddiethegladiator]

did someone beat jazz at a fashion challenge!? both did amazing of course, but the outfit Mei picked for Jazz's night look was HOT

[@crubbythebeagle57]

Oh my FREAKING god the NIGHT LOOK ON JAZZ🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😭😭

[@AlexSmith-sz5ru]

yesss

[@HouseMDaddict]

Mei won the night look for picking out the PERFECT outfit for jazz. Omg it made her look SO good and confident! And Jazz won the day look for Mei! So they tie and it's clear they know each other enough to push each other out of their comfort zones while also knowing their style well!

[@alik5616]

I’d love to see a millennial and a gen z go thrifting for outfits for each other it’s more sustainable and a little harder to do but you can find some one of a kind gems

[@srishtihinduja6129]

Wow, Mei's night outfit is a night look, like it's night go and sleep 😂

[@Mia-sp8jc]

Mei' s night look is junior hi overnight camp - come on.

"Just because I'm scared of something doesn't mean I can't rock it." This honestly makes so much sense to me, and I think it's something that's really hard to remember

[@ru_archer]

So did Asos buy Buzzfeed? 'Cos it really feels like Asos bought Buzzfeed.

[@Noortje394]

Probaly sponsors or something

[@nkisikid]

Jazz is an Asos affiliate that could b y

[@tinivanmossevelde]

Jazz’s hair looks soooo good!!!

[@SolipsismRocksMySock]

'She's got cool mom vibes', I feel personally attacked. Any other millennials feel very much not old enough to be anyone's mom?

[@jediyarahim-danford7592]

I am a millennial mom to a five year old, and I was aghast by the comment. Like um how dare you ?

[@skitsot9046]

Yeah I was like “huhhhh”? I’m 27 and I’d love to be a mum but at the same time when she said that I felt attacked lol. “She’s obviously a millennial, but she’s cool” gave me “she can sit with us” vibes

[@xxarianahiltonxx5116]

Me! Lol

[@TheBermudiana]

Lol I have a 13 year old 😭

[@denisebautista580]

If you were born between 1990-99, you’re between 31-20. So yes, can be parents

[@emperorwai]

Jazz's choice for day look is basically the older sister from Thornberries but in brown and black.

[@DeesyDope100]

I literally said that in my head while she ordering it

[@magalybermudez6979]

The night look Mei picked out for Jazz is 🔥, now I want to own tops like that😍😍

[@QueerCripple]

Jazz: MeiMei is like my work wife! Mei: Jazz is like a cool mom. Ouch 🤣 (Edited for spelling after seeing the difference between captions and video cards)

[@QueerCripple]

Jaz pls style me omg 😍

[@OfficialCydtheKidd]

Y'all both ATE, but Jazz's night look won the whole video 🔥🔥🔥

[@TaraToonlay]

Jazz's night look.....holy 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. The shirt! Daaaaaaamn. I mean... Everything! They are both lovely and did very well for one another.

[@stickysteph]

Maybe instead of buying all this fast fashion, you could style each other purchasing on poshmark or thrifting....

[@VoiceDivine]

It’s not that deep. The world is built off of fast fashion and none sustainable things. The truth hurts

[@bethrose4853]

@@VoiceDivine wow. tell that to the little girls and boys in sweat shops making this clothing.

[@jazz7878]

Yess thrifting . Especially since they’re in Cali so the thrift stores would have nice clothes !!

[@symonewilson471]

There are some who do Poshmark for this and repurpose in their own closet too. But they’re dressing someone else this is more reliable

[@VoiceDivine]

@@bethrose4853 no…I do not have contact with those children. And not every brand uses sweat shops just a fyi. People always assume things on the internet.

[@salty_plebo7208]

oh my gowd i loved this with jazz ,jazz is so iconic so is mei

[@HerbieRey]

Ok but Jazz in her nightlook is giving me Morpheus from The Matrix energy and I am so here for it

[@thegoosegirl42]

Mei: I'm looking respectfully I swear I am, but I'm looking. me: same

[@sm1970]

Love you jazzzzz We are really missing Lindsay and jazz U guys are the best duo Please 🥺 come up for a video together

[@anekcm]

Mei is adorable tho. Love them both

[@AskaxXxTissaxXx]

They both are so supportive and so cute and I love seeing videos like this. I feel my confidence boost already. 🥰

[@Moondragon1821]

Oh. My. God. That corset top on Jazz. LOVE IT! I want one.

[@susanwilliamson6717]

Jazz' night look is straight up Matrix vibes. I was just waiting for the camera to pan mid leap and the beat to drop x

[@nerdygirl1984]

The captions said "jinzy" for "gen z" and I think that is just hilarious.

[@nancykuznetsov9372]

WOW, I just happened on your channel. So entertaining! So fun and "something" I cannot put my finger on but it makes me smile. Group HUG to all of you!

[@jeannebrdt]

Jazz looks like she about to conquer the galaxy

[@shananigans01]

Two of my fave buzzfeeders. Love this friendship 💛

[@tracyvo3]

this was sooo educational & fun to watch

[@TributesAndUnique]

Why is Buzzfeed so obsessed with generations?

[@nataliei.4114]

Right. They're overdoing it.

[@hannekekoolen8243]

For the clicks

[@r4ndom7000]

buzzfeed staff think that generations are a personality trait lol. it's the same kind of people who obsess over their zodiac sign. they don't have an actual personality so they hyperfocus on all these little "categories" they can put themselves in that tell them who/what they are. (not talking about the girls in the video here, just speaking generally lol)

[@Hazeydaze92]

For real, it's so weird. There really isn't that much difference in millennials & gen z

[@MysonEggAndHisbrotherCheese]

@@r4ndom7000 you are so right 👏

[@tuesdaywithjisoo8395]

Ok I just love Mei's name idk why it's really nice.

[@TyTLZacharie]

Omg I loved this for them. I think they both did right for each other for both looks.

[@AlexisZLigon-rr5yg]

I’m living for this!!

[@-streaminadream-5356]

theY ARE SO GOOD TOGETHER AHHH LOVE

[@yeppueda9028]

omg Jazz night look is so dope

[@jameshowlett8811]

Love Jaz last outfit she looks like a comic book hero from the 90s

[@pelinxxx8413]

Omg i Love the combo. Mei and Jazz. Yessssss love it

[@lizasmith9243]

5:23 Ahh those are the shoes mei had to wear in the date challenge too!!

[@venuslazo9667]

Love Jazzmyne's night look! fits her really well..

[@rosemarie8309]

Because Jazz,, Viv & Mei I've been pushing myself to wear things out of my comfort zone as a mom I've lost a lot of my confidence and have been trying to work on that

[@natalie_kendel]

This was such an uplifting episode.

[@godsangel1644]

Mei and Jazz looks were 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍😍. I definitely want to get that shirt from her night look but unsure if I can rock it as hard Jazz.

[@lilyanne9012]

mei and jazz are my absolute favorite people at buzzfeed! i hope there is more videos of them together.

[@crystaladams3160]

This is my favorite style swap video!

[@x0Mickey0x]

Love love love jazz night look

[@anifreak112]

I loveeeee this series ❤️

[@keiron.4612]

Love who Jazz has become! Obsessed with these ladies 💕✨

[@SergioMartinez-vn1qf]

We need more jazzmyn

[@jm2307]

Their dynamic is so cute. Four great looks!

[@phma192]

Jazz and Mei😍, yes more please.

[@tzyriajones4542]

I LIVE FOR the reactions

[@xoShannonNicolexo]

The day fit Jazz choose for Mei is giving Ashley Banks and I am here for it!!!!

[@silent_day]

Woah, they both did great!

[@lizasmith9243]

Ahh yes we love to see the iconic gays in one video

[@Robinv0224]

what I wouldn't do to work for as/is it seems like such a loving and supportive company it's my dream job

[@natl9005]

Jazz's last OUTFITTTTTT 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@yvonne5322]

Jazz looked deadly in her night outfit

[@toyintoy]

She understood the assignment ✨✨

[@lady_xelas2441]

Yay fast fashion! Buzzfeed’s favorite, despite holding influence over so many people’s buying habits.

[@timceceliaevans3844]

Jazz dressed Mei for a night in and Mei dressed Jazz for a night out

[@tellemomma9780]

So happy to see Jazz! Fantastic duo today!

[@natalieclark1168]

like I understand they have some form of like affiliate deals with ASOS and Pretty Little Thing but it's so boring when it's the only places they shop

[@Hazeydaze92]

You need to realise that Buzzfeed is essentially an ad agency, they're always trying to sell you something

[@paryamin7340]

Best duooooooo ❤❤❤

[@RondyWooten]

I related so hard to Jazz gushing about Mei.

[@Itsjustash04]

I’m a millennial that needs Jazz to style me!

[@fallaciousjinx]

Does anyone know how old they are? To me, they don't look loke different generations, but maybe I'm just too old to recognize the differences 😃

[@BreathingYourLife]

Same here, they both look like they could be 20 something

[@vivianmartinez5121]

I know it’s not common but could you do a style video to let more common dress codes or not LA vibe cause I always feel like these styles wouldn’t work on smaller towns or areas that people usually just wear a tshirts and shorts or jeans. I would love to see how you can style up a quote unquote average 9-5 person who has to be a little more tames down but still wants to branch out. Maybe a day to night option as well. Love that you all love your looks but I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea and that’s fine. Also as a millennial I feel like the style was a little different or maybe I was just too poor to buy that stuff When i was younger so I feel like my style is more of a gen z style

[@courtneylawrence160]

100 percent agree. Most millennials I know fight crop tops.

[@hayleykitto6909]

LOVE LOVE LOVEREE

[@dikshyapokharel]

yayy!

[@MK-pj8wr]

I like that Mei actually got cool items for jazz and not just a t-shirt dress the way megan always does.

[@juliakim2399]

No shoes gor Jazz lol

[@christine2689]

Weird. The pink shoes you got for Mei has already been worn in a separate video released one week ago. Makes me wonder if you guys actually purchased the clothes or you just delayed the release of this video

[@myusikah]

ok but Jazz is thinking like Gen Z so I dunno how accurate this is xD

[@Tatycharmz]

Those pants are something I’d never buy but my bf would. Lol idk

[@aianegeremias]

Why Mei didn't buy any shoes for Jazz?

[@MayMay-cj2jb]

I think it's fair to say that Mei won this challenge with her picks for Jazz. But in turn, Jazz became our new crush. Like damn Jazzmyne girl pls try gen z fashion more often i am in love with u (respectfully)

[@Claireannette77]

My faves🥰

[@bird2933]

“I’m a cool mom” ????? Are we that old Jesus lmao

Not at all. Lol

Jazz in the night look. Excuse me mommy? Sorry- mommy? Sorry- monmy?

[@s.sarahhh]

THEIR OUTFITS-

[@millenialfragrancenerd94]

Mei gets major points for picking not one, but two outfits for a plus size person that not only fit well, they also look good 👌🏻 Edit: Mei's nighttime outfit gave me "middle aged summer bible camp supervisor" vibes

[@lavender1604]

I’m obsessed with both of those first looks, I want them for myself!!! This feels like the style I want to achieve but haven’t quite figured it out #teammillennial

[@evapabey9474]

Jazz u r a beautiful and funny human being and everyone could have a smile on there face if they where in contact with u

[@tarniaeugene4116]

Jazz in that leather peice is ready for fashion week

[@areebaakram897]

They should have picked a more Millennial-ish millenial because Jazz already has a bit of genz in her with the latest trends and all so seeing her in those outfits wasn't as big of a surprise or something new.

[@madisonashlee174]

i want them both to style me so bad
