i LOVE boxy sweaters i distinctly remember crying in a dressing room when i got my first really nice one cause it just. cured my dysphoria

[@TheStitchess]

🥺🥺🥺

[@kayuliosborne4110]

As a plus size knitter I love that cropped sweaters are in fashion. Saves me a shit ton of yarn money

[@TheStitchess]

Don’t gotta pay for what doesn’t exist!

[@delicateghoul]

I love the word "frumpy". In my early twenties me and a friend invented Frump Goth. It sure was a look 😂

[@delicateghoul]

I forgot to add that sweaters were an integral staple of Frump Goth

[@avabedaque3984]

Frumpy goth is my favorite look for when I'm too sick to wear normal clothes but am pretending I feel fine. Frumpy goth is my jam

[@taltzi]

i feel like the light purple sweater would be so cool to possibly thrift flip since it's a really cool color and the fabric looks comfy

[@taltzi]

....oh shit i just realized she did kinda thrift flip it i meant like adding a collar and stuff !!

[@itsrey5475]

When you've never thought of tucking in sweaters and it comes as a youtube revelation that solved both your unflattering-sweater problem and your wanting-to-show-your-fancy-belt problem 👌

[@laura.elizaa]

I love turtlenecks. My tips for wearing turtlenecks are to find a mock-neck turtleneck if possible. It can look less oversized if it is mock.

[@petrichorbones]

regular turtle necks even in my size look so big on me lmao i wonder if my neck is just short, like the rest of me 🤣😭

[@sassyspaghetti7283]

I’m about to order my first lolita dress. So excited! You’ve really given me the confidence to explore this style. Thank you!

[@TheStitchess]

omg nice! I need to start actually wearing lolita on this channel 🥺

[@taltzi]

stitchess gives me bestdressed if she was a softgirl/kawaii chick vibes

[@MinttMeringue]

I used to wear sweaters all the time. Then I moved to Texas... with the summer heat in particular, I've finally been learning how to style short-sleeved shirts and such lol!

[@petrichorbones]

i have way too many sweaters and jackets for someone who also lives in texas 😪 this year i hoarded a bunch of lighweight dresses and rompers lol but then corona hit so i just wear tee shirts at home all day 😭

[@sophiehamrick7082]

We don’t share the same style but this does help me style my sweaters and even shirts thank you ☺️

[@lauravankins8290]

Watching this while wearing a pastel 80s knit sweater that was one of my best thrift finds ever

[@TheStitchess]

Vintage sweaters are some of the most fun pieces at the thrift store! ...but some of the hardest to style 😭

[@lauravankins8290]

@@TheStitchessYess... thanks for the good tips! ☺

[@funnygirl8070]

I honestly LOVE wearing a fully baggy, oversized outfit with jersey knit sweaters, or any oversized fit sweater. But, having guidelines for how to style a bulky sweater with fitted garments to get a great silhouette is super helpful!! Thank you :-D!

[@itsoktorisuyet]

ok i know this is a second comment but the yellow turtleneck with the aqua pinafore made me GASP that outfit is so pretty!!

[@ModernLifeisThrift]

Most of my wardrobe is natural fiber but there is a special place in my heart for acrylic mock neck sweaters

[@jaboi7709]

I'm desperate for sweater weather

[@elliotlakota8716]

Finally I can buy the sweaters I've always wanted and look good in them

[@enchantedluna111]

My eternal winter struggle loves granny vintage sweaters... struggles how to wear them with a bigger chest and short torso without looking like a ... box , but, ultimately feeling cozy usually wins. I became a fan of turtlenecks in the last two winters, so much easier to not get cold in the winter while using them. ^^ A yellow one i have I ended up doing something similar to that last one but made a tube and put a Lil bit of elastic inside. Such a great video and is making me miss autumn already xD 💖

[@TheStitchess]

When it’s summer I miss any season that isn’t summer...

[@caliginousangel3794]

i love sweaters so much, i wish i wasnt so sensitive to the heat.

[@spottedleaf4133]

The heart club sweater is so cute!! 💖

[@melmelrachel]

i love grandma sweaters so much. i got this really pretty purple sweater with beaded applique flowers on it from a thrift shop once, and it's way too big for me, but it looks so cute oversized and it's so warm and comfy! i love wearing grandma sweaters with mom jeans

[@digimaui]

It's grossly hot where I live atm but I'm looking ahead to fall 👀 can't wait to be fashionable in sweaters and NOT HOT

[@booberry8926]

if some body said i look like my grandma id say thank u so much 🥺

[@ericad7681]

Wow that cropped sweater looks legit! I need to try doing that sometime when I can go thrifting again

[@thegreenonions]

Yesss sweaters! Turtlenecks are my absolute fave, I have a growing collection of them as part of my winter uniform! As for the jersey knit type sweatshirts I have a few that are technically youth sized so they actually are naturally shorter and hold that waist-defining shape naturally without having to tuck it in to bottoms. They're still baggy enough to fit my larger chest, but I like that they're not long like most jersey sweaters!

[@TheStitchess]

Nice!

[@KiwiJJams]

I'm guilty of breaking the turtleneck rules (-.- ") I wear almost everything either cropped or oversized so I SWIM in my turtlenecks (I have a black one I just wear with jeans as practically as long as a dress, every part of it is massive) but I must say, the way you wear and style turtlenecks is INCREDIBLY flattering on you and looks so incredibly chic! I think I'll try adopt some of these suggestions in my styling and see how it plays out! maybe tucking and defining my shape would look better than wearing all my sweaters oversized and untucked.

[@caitlyntravelingcircusvtg938]

currently binging your channel. i live ONLY for grandma sweaters and florals

[@spooks7517]

I just thrifted a grandma sweater, kinda funny! :D

[@hwrencleaveland459]

I love big oversized sweaters so much and miss wearing them since I moved to Florida! I've been trying to find similar shapes in lighter or more breathable fabric to give the look without the bulk and extra heat.

[@chipmunkwarcry]

Echoing everyone else to say that this video was seriously helpful!

[@TheMeganExperience]

With my body shape, the older style sweaters are much more flattering that the draped ones now that inevitably look dumpy on me. This was a really good video and I definitely had some solid takeaways, you rock!

[@hellahapa6088]

The video thumbnail randomly came up on my feed, and I was like "I DONT CARE WHAT CONTENT IS (but also yes i'm interested), I WANNA BE FRIENDS". Wow, your aesthetic resonates with me. I'm in luvvvv ! subbed!

[@elliewellie_YouTube]

thanks for the sweater vid in July lol

[@gumfry2386]

I loooove turtle necks 🤤 I have a longish neck so I like what they do for me. I usually don’t layer the turtle necks though bc they tend to be really chunky considering it’s always cold. I’d love to get some thinner ones to style, cause that outfit you made was to die for

[@m0rior]

Aww my favorite type of clothing is grandma sweaters!

[@ysodora8030]

I love sweaters! It’s funny that you tend to mostly tuck yours in as I personally never do, maybe it’s cause with the sweaters I have they tend to look fine untucked, or else I fold up the tight band under the sweater to give the illusion of being tucked in without creating the bulk around my waist that often arises with the heavy knit sweaters I tend to need in the North. If all else fails I’ll use a Fanny pack at the waist to since in my sweaters. 😊😊😊💖💖💖

[@Katerina-kqkq]

They work great in Mori, btw

[@clairethomas608]

Oh gosh turtle necks are my jam - I love them so much. They make everything look better imo. I just wish those ones with no sleeves were more stylish because they are great for layering without getting to warm but I don’t see many people wear them.

[@EpiclyAverageGirl]

When you talk about layering them do you mean putting something over or under them?

[@clairethomas608]

I usually put them under but over might be cute too! I like to put them Under dresses to add interest 🥰

[@EpiclyAverageGirl]

@@clairethomas608 Thanks for the new idea of what to do with turtlenecks. I'll have to see if I can get my hands on a sleeveless one🤔

[@clairethomas608]

I’ve only found them at thrift stores so far, wishing you good luck 🥰

[@ThatOneLadyOverHere]

It's funny that you said that one of the cons for the chunky knit sweater is that they look weird if their too long because I have found that on my body any shirt needs to come well past my hip dips or it just looks weird. So it will probably be the opposite for me: the longer the better! (tucking at the waist is fine, but I have to have the right skirt or pants so my butt doesn't look long.)

[@Layla-tg2qe]

But... but what if I want to look like a marshmallow peep?

[@digimaui]

Follow your marshmallow peep dreams!

[@TheStitchess]

Then you’ll know not to tuck your sweater in ;)

[@barbiisaurus]

gotta love the yellow sweater, also i never thought about using something on top rather than below it :o that´s a good idea. I personally love turtlenecks because i´m always cold xD

[@chey261]

I love this!! I have a mix of Jersey and misc. Sweaters. I got my favorite one from kohl's for like....15 bucks and it is this dreamy pastel tie dye sweater that kinda gives me candy vibes 💕💕

[@isaacs5887]

SCREAM i need that honey light sweater!

[@zanegarglezsehmen]

thanks i really needed this! ( i didnt know what to comment i just wanted to boost your engagement so we keep getting videos like this :)💖 )

[@miiol7018]

really nice video yet again! I don't do mich commenting but I just wanted to pop in and thank you for the content you put out. I've been marathoning all of your videos all morning, I've been having a bit of a rough time lately and your videos really help me to feel better. So thank you, keep up the good work

[@Shaabun]

Yet another adorable video!! Thanks for the cute content 💕💕

[@toof13ss]

sometimes if i wanna crop something but not forever or i just don have the time to crop it i'll take a shoelace/belt, tie it where i want it cropped and pull all the excess fabric up through where i tied the shoelace/belt its prob my fave thing to do esp in norcal where every season after summer is not actually what its supposed to n the days seem to contain all the seasons at once

[@TheStitchess]

Love that indecisive weather

[@taltzi]

sameee i remember seeing it in a bestdressed video and i've been doing it forever

[@xDeydeyxtartelette]

That's such a great and complete guide, thank you! 👌

[@amby1269]

4:02 what do you call that thing on your neck? Its really cute and i wanna buy one! ^^

[@lucamannstein2587]

Love this! Very helpful as I'm in the process of reshaping my wardrobe :) In your wardrobe basics (i love those videos) you mention statement pieces and basics.. How do i decide what is what? I kinda have a grasp but not really.. ^^

[@TheStitchess]

It depends on your style as what might be a basic for me could be a statement piece for someone else - but essentially a “basic” is an item that can go with anything (a plain white t-shirt is considered a universal basic for example) and a “statement” piece would be an item that maybe only goes with a handful of items. Statement pieces are usually the focus of an outfit, paired with basics to build a full coordinate.

[@lucamannstein2587]

@@TheStitchess thank you! That helps a lot :) keep on doing your lovely videos

[@almosthumanjessi9799]

Hey, I was wondering if you had advice about oversized cardigans? My grandmother got me this chunky, knit cardigan that's about two sizes too big for me, but the color is lovely. I was wondering what could be done to make it more wearable?

[@EeeKayBees]

I just found your channel and i am in love! I love your style !

[@lolli8083]

You are so adorable!! I love how you style everything 🥰 But also I'm literally begging you...can you tell me where you got that "Honey Light" sweater and if you thrifted it do you know the brand? 😭💗

[@TheStitchess]

It’s by a vintage brand named Spumoni (like the ice cream flavor).

some can be but a lot of them are smaller

@@froggychair9371 ah okay thanks. I wondered cause the ones I saw in Germany where I live are normally not even half the space.
