styling UGLY old trends people HATE but i think we can make it work...?

[@sarahtracey1504]

i appreciate that when styling the tie skirt, you recognize that the trend is oversized blazers but you're totally right that they cropped blazer is the proportion it needs. it honestly turned out super cute :)

[@ReyBeltane]

I really love how your influences are EVERYTHING. You know current trends, past trends, film & TV references, anime, musicians’ looks…you just really study fashion from every angle and can wear SO many styles because of it. It also helps so many of us who wouldn’t have discovered certain things otherwise. (The K-pop music is really not for me, but the outfits are amazing and I wouldn’t have heard of or seen any of those bands without you!)

[@basket.8case]

[@nettao2122]

it might be just me, but my skinny jeans never left my closet....they're just so easy to pair and build

[@observantphantom]

I love me some skinny jeans.

[@RedPandaNinja6886]

Hard agree, skinny jeans look nice with pretty much every shirt i own. If i wear baggy/loose pants i need to be a lot more conscious of proportions because i tend to get lost in too much fabric

[@tuliptown9058]

I love straight jeans just cuz their very practical, comfy, and easy to style. Skinny jeans just so uncomfortable and for me make my legs look even skinnier so pretty unflattering for me, but i do agree they can be easy to style tho and look good in certain outfits and on some people.

[@casswashwash1070]

@@tuliptown9058same! I have tiny legs and they make me look like i skipped leg day. I do but like the world dont need to know that 😂😂😂

[@NinjaKittkatt]

Skinny jeans are great to pair with big chunky boots and looser fitting tops. Wide legs pants are better with crop tops or tight fitting tops. I think both have their place within your closet and should never be considered "out of fashion". But perhaps this is just my Zillennial ass talking since I feel like I exist in both worlds lol.

[@_silence_rina]

The wrap-around skirt in the Jamie Jeans outfit is very much giving 'hoodie tied around the hips.' Good old times

[@catis4]

How brave of the people being interviewed hating on the type of jeans that now is considered out of style. Truly groundbreaking!

[@georgieralph7025]

i feel like my cutest outfits are always a lil ugly or questionable. also i NEED a tie skirt omg

[@sapphic.flower]

Styling is knowing how to wear “ugly” pieces and most importantly, feeling good in it! Loved the fits as usual, I hope to achieve your level of maximalism lol

[@vickisigh2674]

THE VISOR BEANIE WITH THE BRIM!!! honestly iconic

[@jackalopexjackalope9870]

Unpopular I guess in that I still unabashedly like most of those items! I think it’s 100% normal to not like styles or items on a personal level, everyone has their own likes and dislikes! But I have always dressed however the heck I want regardless of what’s “popular”, and feel sorry for people who allow someone else’s arbitrary tastes to decide what’s unstylish or not for them. Genuinely sad for people to think they can’t enjoy what they like. It should not be normalized to declare certain styles are off limits or uncool now when they were average or cool two minutes ago and will be popular again soon enough. Some things get over-saturated maybe, but if you still like it, just keep wearing it! I love that you keep doing you and are fabulously fashionable in your own personal, lovely way. No other fashion content gets me hyped about wearing the things I love as much as your videos 🙌💕 I’m glad you’re out here just rocking your own style and hopefully giving people courage to just wear the dang galaxy print leggings if they love ‘em 😂

[@laurenmay2329]

I freaking love a mullet skirt walking in one makes you feel like a princess

[@artsytype]

You made all of those look great! If you hadn’t told us that the items were “ugly”/“out” I would’ve just thought that you found some throwback items at the thrift and that they look cute when YOU style them 😊

[@cozyninos]

lol i never stopped wearing skinny black jeans, Perfect with oversized band tees and leather ... it's a a wardobe staple for me

[@viccy2404]

girrrrlll your styling in the talking bits?!?!?!🔥🔥YOU ARE LITERALLY GLOWING!!! and your hairstyles??? SLAY

[@featheredskyblue]

I think the construction of tie skirts has a lot to do with their hated reputation. The quality of the sewing, the ties used, and the cut of the skirt can have a huge impact on the way the piece looks in the finished outfit. Back when they were A Thing in the early 2000s, I knew someone who spent the better part of a year scouring thrift shops and yard sales for ties in burgundy and brown, then made them into a tea length skirt. It was the right color palette for her wardrobe, she spent a lot of time thinking about how to arrange them, she took her time with construction, and she made sure the length was right for her. It ended up being a versatile piece for her specific wardrobe.

[@justme-qd6qb]

8:55 yes stickers would be very cute! Like that one solar fotoshoot were she wore a clear sticker skirt

[@CAT-2323]

I love hi-low skirts always did. I think they add so much flare.

I love the drama they bring to an outfit. Especially in occasion wear when you do your best catwalk impression♡

Wait, aren't late zoomers and early alphas discovering emo on TikTok now? And if so skinny jeans are coming round the mountain when they come.

[@thebettertee]

as one of those late zoomers (i think i’m late idk) who has been emo for the past four years, most of us are restyling the main tenants such as the belts/band shirts/eyeliner/colour schemes/ties/bracelets and sort of abandoning the skinny jeans. i think people getting into scene are getting more into skinny jeans tho :)

The striped skinny scarf you're wearing with the sneakers heels is so mid 2000's to 2010's! I vividly remember having one in middle school and high school.

[@sashisharma1241]

The way you made me actually kind of want capris again??? They look so good the way you styled them!

Could you do a whole video on masc styling ? It’s soooo hard to find good masc fashion inspo so I feel a bit lost but you always have good ideas for masc/ androgynous outfits and seem to somehow find the best masc fashion inspo sources so Id love to know your secrets !

You are such a styling genius like you hold something up … and I’m like how are you gonna make this look good and then you do !!

[@jemi_]

I don't know how you were able to change my mind on some of these trends, I was so sure I wouldn't like them. The tie skirt look is so cute, even though I don't like tie skirts themselves. 😊Goes to show how using personal style to influence trendy/"outdated" clothes can completely change their look.

[@rascaljoy]

You are extremely creative with your styling, I love how you pull influences from different eras that I honestly never paid attention to in the moment, but still I can at least agree on the polarizing aspects of most of them. 😂

[@ilymahi]

the twice performance reference!! so real ive been obsessed with it too

[@maddieinglis4138]

Skinny jeans are still so popular in my universe lol. They're basically a staple of emo/alternative subculture and have been for a fairly long time. I think that as the emo kids of the late 2000's to early 2010's start to grow up, a new generation of alternative music/culture (and a general decline in the socioeconomic state of the world) will spawn a new batch of little emos and we will see skinniy jeans become mainstream again!!🧘‍♀️

[@humpusbumpus5559]

the stickers on the plastic shirt is actually such a sick idea???? that would rule so hard

[@brokenrealities513]

I HAVE AN IDEA. Have been thinking about my love of fictional characters styles and why some are so iconic. I think it has to do with colour palette, signature pieces and re-occurring items. I'd be so curious on your take of "How to Create Your Own Iconic Character Style" with ideas similar to a capsule wardrobe and numbered items (example 4 bottoms and 5 tops and 2 jackets) but more fun and random and creative. Kind of formula guide to making an iconic memorable style like the way fictional characters have. Thank you love your videos hehe

[@imveryanxious]

the key smini keychain on your belt MMMMM girl you ate i love key soo much

[@salviaexpedition]

Maybe you can make the plastic shirt to a set decoration with the stickers you mentioned or something. Could be a fun.

[@lili-cl1zx]

oh lord i remember wanting the sneaker heel so bad, having a pink bedazzled paper boy (?) hat and slaying skinny jeans in middle school, what a throwback lmao but this video is honestly so cool, i love how creative you get with every styling!! definitely taking inspiration to try and style some of my old items i can't let go of but never wear

[@RedDrowned]

Tbh skinny jeans are still a moment in my opinion, even though I primarily wear a looser fit

[@rainhay9937]

I think that the main issue with skinny jeans/ disco pants right now is that layering is very in style which is why i think it works with textured materials or accents (zips etc) or chunky boots with lacing (the layering aspect is also why I think one leg tucked into the boot and one out looks appealing).

[@camdelg1]

I actually like your output on skinny jeans. I have a pair of boots like that. I might give it a go.

[@nynaeve]

i would actually love to see hi-low skirts come back with patterned fabric (like plaids) or with a super dramatic gathered gothic kind of look… like aespa at mma 2023 but more wearable?

[@fridajohansson4320]

You should add a lot of stickers to the plastic shirt and hang it as a decoration in your room! I think that would look sooooo cute 💖

[@bltotrs92]

14:45 the plaid Jacket looked the best!

[@amber_sw3846]

Any time Katie uploads I get a boost of serotonin

[@rascaljoy]

They asking the wrong people, I love my skinny jeans and shall never let them go. 😂 Don’t get me wrong, I have quite a few wide pants now, too, but if I want to look nice, I default skinny jeans. Because you throw on an oversized top of any kind, and it instantly elevates the look versus baggy on baggy. (And yes, I know tight tops and baggy bottoms are a thing and they are CUTE, but in the summer, or with the wrong bra/desire to skip the bra, or basically any other opportunity I may sweat, I HATE that fabric sticking to my skin and bunching in my pits. Like, there are so many more opportunities for a tight top to go wrong than a tight bottom. At that point, I’m usually wearing shorts anyway, and I’d much rather a baggy top.)

[@coolchameleon21]

that tie skirt is amazing! also, i love capris and still wearing them a lot in the summer when i don’t want to wear shorts

[@Tinyturtletwo]

the first outfit with the capri and the third pink top and the dainty heels is giving me Sabrina and the teenage witch vibes like it so goes with Sabrina's style in that show the 90's whimsical vibes and i love it

having always been a ‘fashion girlie’ like you, i have also witnessed all of these trends come and go, and can say that i wore almost all of them too 😄 in my opinion, nothing has an expiry date so you can wear whatever you like whenever you like. i would still wear all of these looks 😊 p.s. i love those ‘tacky’ print tops, they’re so fun!

[@nannaxie9405]

I just thrifted a floral capri and made a flared baggy out of it - the only way to redeem this thing's existence

[@McJusti]

The bold printed T-shirt would have looked sooo good with the blue skirt! (But keep the skirt on top, sorry not sorry, I absolutely hate wearing shirts over skirts, it destroys the whole sillhouette and strips you of waist accentuation, plus it makes your torso look super long and out of proportion)

the hard thing to get right about skinnies is getting the correct inseam, if it's too short, it looks dated and tacky, getting an inseam an inch/1.5 inches too long AND a very STIFF denim is ideal to get the manga-esque bunching on the ankles you referred to.
