so today we’re trying out someone’s sense of fashion that’s been mentioned on this channel many times before: Matilda Djerf. What always has (and honestly still does) peak my interest the most is how Matilda’s the queen of simplicity but a fashion icon nonetheless, like??? How come she gets to have it all???? Anyways, as always, I had to put it to the test. Does her simplicity suit only her, or also a self-proclaimed-, not known but like some people know me-, and like I don’t look like her or have her closet but I’m really trying my best-person? Or is it something that will only ever work on her? Lets find out 🤠

“I’m a toxic friend to my journal. I only use it when I need it” is such a MOOD. I try so hard to be a journal/diary girl but alas, always forget until I am in full blown crisis mode.

[@iCharlyprime]

EXACTLY! Why would I question my own thoughts if I'm doing well... like..? 🤨

[@jmsl_910]

totally thought it was just me

[@kat_thefruitbat]

“If you’re judging me, you’re judging an innocent human being who’s just trying to enjoy themself.” 😆👌❤️

[@iCharlyprime]

Period 💅🏻

[@tessa4503]

I love seeing you recreate outfits without being so strict with the colours bc i often get stuck on the fact that i dont have the items in the same colours and this helps me to just try to go with the vibes and shapes!!

[@iCharlyprime]

I’m actually so so happy to read this because this *literally* used to be me and then I never tried out anything new! You go and enjoy your outfits with what YOU have, it takes off sooo much pressure I promise you 🥰✨

[@lorenzog9045]

Love how you put together prototypes of the outfits when you don't have the same pieces so you kinda have an idea if it will work or not instead of buying new stuff

[@iCharlyprime]

If the template doesn’t work, the end result probably won’t either I learned that it’s always good to try out first in order to know what suits *you*

[@b3rdlala]

As an additional note re: same outfit, different colors -- and I'm thinking specifically about Matilda's pink moto jacket outfit -- part of the reason such a simple outfit works is because the choice of colors makes the outfit seem intentional. So even if you don't have the same colors (pink, white, and grey), the outfit would still work if you followed the same logic (2 neutrals and 1 color in a similar tone)

[@iCharlyprime]

truuuue you're so right!! I've been trying to get better with my technicalities but I'm still so new to all of this, so reading such comments is SO helpful, thank you!! ❤️❤️

[@smoli2000]

Ugh you are such a funny and charming queen and like i wish you didnt talk yourself down so much bc often the maidens you look up to are such a snooze. And your charm makes you 100x more attractive. This compliment is coming from a 30 yr old whos lived and seen Things so that makes it valuable :3

[@smoli2000]

Youre high fashion editorial matilda or emma chamberlain are commercial. You have a je ne sais quoi. Also im a sag just so you know im speaking TRUTH

[@LenaIgrit]

I’ve watched every single one of your videos and girl let me tell you’re slaying so hard For real your channel is my new favourite thing in internet, I really laughed out loud while I was alone at home l Thank you so much for doing this

[@iCharlyprime]

As a person that was insecure about her humor for quite some time until she just decided ‘f this I’m gonna do whatever I want’, this is THE biggest compliment, thank you🥹❤️

[@juliet6200]

I love you so much for accepting the basic lol. I'm someone on the more... maximal side of the spectrum sometimes you get really caught up on trying to be more unique more different. It's just so liberating to wear something a little simpler time to time. You've really helped me with that. Seeing you wear simple things helps the rest of you shine. Definition of you wearing your outfit, not the outfit wearing you. Killing it, girl!🔥

[@iCharlyprime]

I can very much relate to trying to ‘one up’ in fashion being sooo exhausting, glad I can make simple fits seem less boring 🥰

[@ana-rz3tj]

yeah, matilda´s looks are great to learn how to play with basics and gain the confidence to start learning what you like and explore fashion! loved your recreations!

[@iCharlyprime]

thank you and 100% agree! ☺️✨

[@bedhairismybae5480]

ok but the way i have been obsessed with your channel for the past week and i have been binging your content 🛐 i love this channel and its content so much

[@iCharlyprime]

Not the kneeling emoji hahahaha So so glad to hear you’re enjoying my stuff, these sorts of comments are truly the best reward 🥰✨❤️

[@andreabetancor2457]

i love the phill tshirt + maxi skirt + crocks so much in a not ironically way

[@iCharlyprime]

girl me neither, I love my cult victim fits 😌❤️

[@philippalech5825]

i love how you just put your own touch on the fits and still looked good and i loved the vest outfit

[@Michelle-ew5fq]

your content and titles are refreshing in the fashion niche here on the tubes, gworl KEEP UP THE GOOD WORKKKK

[@iCharlyprime]

I WILL QUEEN!! ❤️

[@haleeegreen]

the belt over the vest altered my brain chemistry it looks so good

[@iCharlyprime]

thank you fierce queen 💅🏻😌❤️

[@larissalourdes2836]

you are my new favorite influencer! I literally love your videos and have been bingeing them non-stop. love love love your style and your outfit recreations as a normie because I am also a normie who needs some inspo. KEEP DOING YOUR THING QUEEN, I LOVE IT!!!

[@iCharlyprime]

I WILL KEEP DOING THE THING THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT QUEEN!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@anthonyslay]

love the belt over the waistcoat in the last outfit!!

[@user-iw4yl7fp9p]

This was a great video and I'm excited to watch the rest of your channel! I like what you said about her style being great for beginners - I know what I like to wear in autumn and winter but always struggled with looks for warmer weather, so finding her style helped me find good 'outfit formulas' that I could recreate and make my own, and has helped me to develop my summer style

[@liebemale9047]

GIRL, you're so relatable and funny, I love your videos. Amazing video as always, loved the outfits and how you recreate them with your own clothes!!

[@iCharlyprime]

Thank you so much!! Glad I can entertain the people 😌❤️

[@juliaa35]

I love that you try to recreate the looks without copying them completely! Gives me so much inspiration

[@iCharlyprime]

aaah I'm so glad my creations can inspire others 🥰

[@taps_lock]

Your eyes and eye makeup look so radiant and pretty ❤️

[@divia121]

[@jmsl_910]

i was ready to start an lmm!! that's effing hilarious!!!

[@nicole-rb4iw]

ok ur channel has been popping up on my recommended for quite some time & i finally gave in & binged a couple of ur videos & i’m so glad i did bc u are so REAL . i love how honest u are on the internet & how blatantly u present ur insecurities ( something i’m not sure i could do lol ) . ur videos are soo comforting & the adidas samba one finally convinced me to buy them after thinking abt it for a long time so feel free to call urself an influencer 😘 also the pearl reference finally made me subscribe lol

[@iCharlyprime]

I looove reading such comments, not just bc I'm obviously glad to have you here, but also bc in the past I always thought insecurities are something to be covered up, but that was literally so tiring that I just stopped caring at one point and then did the 180 to just show it all bc like who cares? And now this is what people actually like when they're watching my stuff?? Like??? Truly couldn't ask for more 😌✨ (also love the Lorde profile pic)

[@jmsl_910]

she's a gem

[@nabilaap9450]

The phil dunphy shirt!! Always looove your videos, such an inspiration 🥰💖

[@iCharlyprime]

He’s my idol 😌❤️

[@ericalbrockway]

My favorite is the maxi skirt & Adidas outfit but you slayed them all 💃

[@annisashalihanurisman3882]

THIS IS VERY HELPFUL ILY SM

[@iCharlyprime]

GLAD I COULD HELP YOU LOVE YOU SM MORE!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@norak8080]

unpopular opinion incoming! this is a brave moment for me bc I never said this on the internet lol. to me, Matilda is just some guy. she's very beautiful and dresses well, but if I saw her on the street, I wouldn't take a second look bc she looks like any pretty, trendy girl with a style based on classic basics to me. she seems to be perfectly lovely and I'm happy for her success, but I sometimes feel like a crazy person bc I don't see what everyone else sees lol

[@slena]

riiiight she truly gives nothing but born with privilege to me which is why it's so hard for me to be impressed by anything she does lol

[@amorosavintage]

Literally the other day I went to the Djerf Avenue site and immediately realized I could most definitely NOT afford even 1 thing from that shop LOL thank you for this vid 💕

[@iCharlyprime]

glad I can save the people from financial ruin 😌✨

[@gabsskates2004]

Oooh love the green leather jacket and skirt outfittt!! Honestly feel like those colours look cooler anyway ❤❤❤❤

[@mynameisvika]

Luvvvvv your videos!!!❤

[@mayvanhalm397]

Love your own versions of the outfits! 🥰 I think the reason why the outfits look so good on her is because she's a Kibbe 'soft natural' and those pieces work really well for that specific body type. Maybe another good topic for a video in the future? Question mark, question markk

[@iCharlyprime]

Truuue! Thank you for the idea ☺️✨

[@anagb9325]

SAME with the travel outfits

[@honeyteababy]

girl you’re already a fashionista!!

[@iCharlyprime]

Omg thank you 🥹❤️

[@chlo_mo6739]

I love you and your channel! 💕These vids are so inspiring for recreating outfits with your own personal spin. ☺️ One of my faves was the cardigan/white maxi look! I can see you sitting outside at a cafe 💁🏼‍♀️ With the black mini dress/white button-up fit, I was thinking it might work better with a shirt the same length as the dress? Just a thought!

[@iCharlyprime]

Truuuue I’ll def try that out, thank you for the suggestion!! ☺️❤️

[@kiaray00]

“I don’t look like a cult leader, I look like a cult victim” LMFAOOO😭😭😭

Also, “I’m like sort of a toxic friend to my journal…” too relatable!

I requested this under the Bella Hadid video, Thank you so much for doing this Charly ❤

[@iCharlyprime]

Thank YOU for suggesting it! 😌❤️✨

[@celadonangel7985]

NI? omg hi! so weird to have an internet person that I follow know where that is! , I totally agree that some of Matilda's outfits can come across business casual and I know if I wore them they might make me look a little too mature for my age, but you pulled everything off so well! ❤✨☘

[@iCharlyprime]

Thank you!! And yes Northern Ireland! ❤️🍀 You guys have a *beautiful* country how can one not know this place exists??

[@celadonangel7985]

@@iCharlyprime It is pretty beautiful (when it’s sunny) hope you stay for and enjoy st.Patricks day!!! 💖

[@hang1iderswing]

Why do I feel like that Shrek horoscope meme is one of your core memories. Now I understand your fashion so much better- it's not about beauty. It's about layers, like an onion.

[@jaym3694]

'So I went into my local store' - is that a Tedi?? Do you live in Germany? I'm confused 😂 Anyways I love your takes on the outfits, a lot of them I really prefer to the original (especially the first one) 🔥🔥 I love your content, keep up with the great work!♥️

6:10 Girl...BEST LOOK

[@aleio8233]

Matilda dresses according to her body type/vibe. That's why it looks different on other people. That's it.

[@aleio8233]

Also the way these pics are taken play into that.

[@aleio8233]

That said, none of these outfits were original or interesting.

[@yuzan3607]

honestly I don't understand the obsession with Matilda Djerf. She's kinda ugly.

[@iCharlyprime]

I agree with what you said, which is what I try to prove in more of a fun and positive manner in most of my videos so that people know they themselves/ their bodies aren’t the problem, it’s just that pictures are merely that: well taken pictures 😌 Thank you for pointing it out again ☺️

[@MacWitch]

"so then I jumped the fence and then I was spongebob" 💀💀
