Get in line for your booboo kisses 💋💋💋

[@Bonnatella]

Wowee zowee! That blue dress was sent from the thrift lords! I'm seeing a bold rattan chair photo shoot in your future 🌸👀✨💜

[@KathleenIllustrated]

You’re so right, Bonnie! Thank you thrift lords 💙💕⭐️

[@TeriyakiDior]

Or in her furniture 😏😅

[@TeriyakiDior]

Don’t kiss me. I’m stinky 🫣😭

[@edidi5717]

i love the fact that you said “wowee zowee”, im stealing that😭

[@hero72127]

the baby blue gown is UNREALLLL

[@thehopper555]

your 2023 predictions video popped up in my recommended last week and I've been binging all your videos since then!! You're so fun to watch and have quickly become one of my favorite KZbinrs :D also the lady asking if you're cottagecore... SO CUTE

[@KathleenIllustrated]

aw whaaat i love hearing this, thank you so much! really glad to have ya. and RIGHT? it made my day 😭💓

[@botanicantics5909]

Same thing happened here!

[@franlevaillant6749]

Me too, the Recommended gods got me good!

[@Ester_Spackova]

That blue dress is gorgeous, but your hair?!! Breathtaking! ✨🤍🙌

[@KathleenIllustrated]

😭 that's too nice! thank you, esterka! super glad you're here ✨

[@theresastone8832]

That blue dress-GAHHHHHHHHHH! What a find!

[@KathleenIllustrated]

BIG GAH, TERRI!!!!! BIG GAH!!!

[@walkonthemumside4747]

Blue dress kinda ABBA esque. Absolutely stunning on you. 2 Ideas for the shoes 1. Stars and moon studs ( normal option) 2. sailor moon cat vibe with pompoms or just an actual felted cat (less normal option) .

[@KathleenIllustrated]

So ABBA! You're totally right. also.... I'm VERY excited about the idea of a 70s manga magical girl. YES.

[@Quathryn]

That blue gown is an ABSOLUTE GEM. But ALSO, might I had that your floral shirt with the criss-cross necklace and big poofy curls is an impeccable look. 10/10 🌟

[@KathleenIllustrated]

⭐u⭐ thank you quath!!! i felt very GROOVY.

[@jenniferbrungardt9439]

Love the boots! They remind me of Isabel Marant. You were right to scoop them up!

[@KathleenIllustrated]

ohhh LOVE that callout, jennifer! you're totally right 👀✨ (thanks for watchin'! hope you're doing well

[@joanwillison9922]

purple dress is amazing. Blue caped is definitely a bridesmaid dress. I wore one in the 70s with the classic 70s wavy hat with plastic thread that poked our heads the whole day. Lol. Good memories. Love the 70s

[@KathleenIllustrated]

LOL Joan your poor noggin! I bet you looked great, though. Thanks for watchin & sharing - super cool to know it’s most likely a bridesmaid dress! 💙

[@mikelobrien]

I wore a gown that looked almost identical to the light blue one you bought to my senior prom in 1976. That brought me back to some interesting high school memories!! 💙

[@KathleenIllustrated]

aw really!!! that's so special (& totally agree that prom invokes interesting memories!!! lol)

[@bnielsss2715]

First video I’ve ever seen on yours and your fashion knowledge with your quit wit and vast vocabulary made me fall in love with you LOL. So happy I found a fashion icon who’s into true fashion and not the hot new basics.

[@KathleenIllustrated]

aww what the heck! hiii welcome to the family! super glad to have you here & it brings me a million smiles to know you're enjoying yourself! ✨💓

[@maddielakeland5314]

'the internal scream i internally scrumped' HA i just found you hannel today and boy am i glad i did

[@KathleenIllustrated]

hehe! welcome maddie!!!

[@courtneyfaulkner2530]

Just found your channel yesterday. its just what I was looking for and I didn't even know it. ❤️

[@KathleenIllustrated]

That’s a huge compliment 🥹 thank you so much Courtney! Glad KZbin brought us together 🧡

[@tarabartlett2184]

That blue dress is Arwen energy. 🤩

[@standdownrobots_ihaveoldglory]

I can't wait to wear my dad's old leather bomber jacket with my new olive utility pants & black work boots plus an extravaganza of delicate scarves....loving all the inspiration.

[@CaseyMaura]

I think those last boots are AMAZING. But I’m also convinced my style soul is stuck in the 80s. 😂 (I’ve been looking at 80s cardigans this afternoon on Poshmark in fact…)

[@KathleenIllustrated]

Casey!!! I’m so glad you think so - you would DEF rock them with the vintage dresses n skirts you style so well. Thanks for watchin, friend. Good luck on the hunt!!

[@violetstuff7602]

I just found your channel! Your personality, style, and editing are all amazing! Can’t wait to see more ✨💗🌷

[@KathleenIllustrated]

oh what da heck thanks violet 😭 it means so much that you'd take the time to share your encouragement! so glad to have ya here 💓

[@AlicjaM6]

I'm so happy to have found your channel ❤ thank you . For the platform sandals you could add a gold buckle detail or bow for sure !!

[@magiciansarcana]

OMG I was in a super big fitting room once too, it's the most insane thing to be stunned about but as an autistic person... I love not feeling like a chicken in a cage when I try on clothes. It was actually like, double the width of the one you were in. Also, when I tell you I salivated over that square neckline top I mean it! It'd be so cute with a fun sweater jacket, utility jeans and a pair of white canvas sneakers. And it shows off jewelry so beautifully! Putting a square neckline shirt on my thrift wishlist rn. Edit: I just watched further and wow, that lavender dress is insane on u. It totally fits you and lavender is so your color! I personally hate it because it's not my color palette but I'd love to see you in more lavender things!

[@KathleenIllustrated]

Oh man, sorry it took so long to respond and thank you so much for watching!! I so glad you liked the square neckline - it’s one of my favs, too! Good luck finding one 🍀 💕

[@PurpleTechWiz]

that blue dress is what i need in my life. i think if i had a vintage dress like that i can be whole and die happy >w

[@pixiebeam]

I could see flowers, butterflies or stars on those black platform heeled shoes 🌹🦋⭐️

[@KathleenIllustrated]

oooo so sweet & cute! I love it, PB! Thanks for watchin’ :)

[@sleepyspacegremlin]

Gosh darn it, that baby blue dress! 💕🌈😍🎉🤩

[@magpie06]

Woot woot! That blue dress was absolutely MADE for you. Statement socks with those platforms! Kashi melts my 🫀.

[@KathleenIllustrated]

cindy!!!!! thank you! so glad to see your comment & i'll give kashi a lil boop for ya

[@summers_shelves]

I'm still stunned over the blue dress. What an absolute dream. Like are you kidding?

[@KathleenIllustrated]

i know. i try not to question how well the thrift gods treat me. there's GOTTA be a catch

[@DeadMelody]

I don't know if you already did something to the plateau heels but I think some colorful knitted "sleeves" covering the upper and lower straps would looks amazing and pop in combination with the black and the heel.

[@WillowTSquirrel]

Some of your best finds yet! I mean, that baby blue number? Come on!! But, i really came here to say that I am IN LOVE with the blouse you have on in this vid!!! You are rocking that crazy floral ❇️🌺🌷🌹🌸❇️🌹

[@KathleenIllustrated]

aw jessica! thank you!! you the sweetest (also that emoji combo is SPOT ON!)

[@izzyyrivv2761]

the blue dress is to DIE for omg

[@KathleenIllustrated]

right? RIGHT?! izzy, it's crazy!!!!! thanks for watching :)

[@beingintroubleisafakeidea]

So many great finds but that apple vest was my fave! Also your dog is so cute 🥺

[@KathleenIllustrated]

Aw tea! Thanks! I’ll tell him you said so 🥰🐺

[@lunamoth1638]

Hahaha “ you’re stinky that’s what I love about you” the best sign off of a video that totally surprised me I had to playback the video to hear it again ❤️🤣

[@KathleenIllustrated]

I love my stinky babies 🐀💕!!!!

[@mandyr5896]

Yay Kashi! Teeny wiggle. That lavender kaftan is so cool! That blue dress is so amazing

[@KathleenIllustrated]

Hehe he’s got the best teeny wiggle. Thank you for watching!! 🐺

[@jeanhodge9876]

Love the boots with the kitten heel 👠 😍 ❤

[@KathleenIllustrated]

[@claudiapcastelblanco24]

Love those boots 🥲

[@whatwouldjudydo_]

Love love that blue dress with floaty cape 💙! I’m would love to find a great dress with a peplum.. still looking 👀

[@tulipsalinger1410]

the boots have a cool shape!

[@withinbody]

obsessed with that blue dress, total score

[@KathleenIllustrated]

RIGHT?! thanks bella! appreciate you

[@MassielMancebo]

The blue dress is a treasure! And I actually really like those red boots lol, I find them super fun and easy to match. I would personally make a painting with some metallic paints on those platforms! 🤔💕

[@KathleenIllustrated]

thanks so much for watching, my friend! also, love your username. 💕 10/10!

[@MassielMancebo]

Thank you! Love you channel and vibes! You remind me of a real life “summer” from 500 days of summer, I feel like this is the type of channel she would have if she had a channel 🫶🏽💕

[@KathleenIllustrated]

@@MassielMancebo gosh what a compliment. thank you!

[@walmartcouch]

i am SO happy to have ur voice on fashion youtube / fashion in general 💕💚💕 thank u for making these incredible vids ! i feel like it won't be long til there's a silver plaque on your wall 🪩

[@KathleenIllustrated]

oh what the heck shiloh that’s so dang nice!!! Really appreciate it & super glad you’re here!!! 🏆

[@LoveleeSweetDarlene]

Love the caped dress! Great find.

[@Amayzun1]

You literally have the best hair 😍

[@lindamiller3382]

Oh my goodness! Those boots! I am always looking for unique finds like those. Great buy!

[@KathleenIllustrated]

Ooh I’m glad you like ‘em Linda! 💃🏻 gotta love a statement boot!

[@icejadechica]

You have such a calming voice and I love your insights! 4:05 physically recoiled when you laid on the floor though but I guess I can't taIk bc I used to sit inside the racks at peebles and pick pins off the floor and give them to the sales people when I was a kid

[@KathleenIllustrated]

LOL sorry for being nasty! Looking back that was… a questionable choice 🤔hahahaha sounds like me & your kid self would have gotten along 💕 thanks for watching!! I appreciate you!

[@kass5361]

Your predictions are SO up my alley, especially the color block clothes! Great video!:)

[@KathleenIllustrated]

Kass!!! So glad you’re enjoying yourself here. Take care 💕

[@renbdesigns]

for the shoes - cover the block heel in tiny golf pencils

[@KathleenIllustrated]

ohhhhh my gosh. and add a lil golf ball to the front like a pompom? or is that too much? LOL thank you for watching!!!

[@renbdesigns]

@@KathleenIllustrated NEVER too much! love that idea.

[@freelancespirit]

Kathleen! Such good finds. I like that picture of Princess Di you included, that’s such a look for those boots! Also, the black heels are giving the pink Valentino shoes everyone wore in the fall! Maybe a hot pink shoe? Also, I learned on KZbin shorts that shoe clips exist. Women clipped them on their heels back in the day to add an accessory without buying a new pair of shoes!

[@KathleenIllustrated]

Ahh I’m glad you caught that lil Princess Di callout! She made everything look good 💔 and you’re totally right!! A super pink girly moment would be FUN! And uhhh YES I love shoe clips! So easy! Show clips walked (ha) so croc jibbitz could RUN. Thanks for watching, my friend!! Always love reading your comments

[@kirrisolly-slade1313]

Found you via your video last week and have been binging your content ever since - it has been great to be here! That blue dress looks like a dream on you!! Excited to see what you do with the shoes! Maybe you could see if you could thrift something that you can decorate the shoes with…. I’m thinking material section, maybe even the kids toy section could yield something cute! The possibility’s are endless!

[@KathleenIllustrated]

oh my gosh kirri THANKS! I'm so glad to hear you've been enjoying my back catalog! super happy to have you here. Also LOVE the idea of exploring the thrift store for materials. I bet there's some cool stuff in the homegood, as well!

[@misspeaches3866]

that blue dress!!

[@KathleenIllustrated]

hehe!!!! i can't say no to a good vintage blue dress they're the BEST! thanks for watching, my friend

[@identityshock]

the boots are unreal im obsessed !

[@KathleenIllustrated]

ahh glad you think so, isabel!!! & thanks for watching, my friend

[@atuvera9021]

That Digital Lavender dress... Oh my Gawd😱💜 so prettyyy... I'mma go faint a lil ✨ I'm back, i need this color in my life💜

[@KathleenIllustrated]

PHEW that was a close one. it's so good 😭✨

[@lorienpatmore3520]

The blue dress is fantastic! It reminds me of Florence Welch, she’s one of my style icons

[@KathleenIllustrated]

Oh my Gosh that’s exactly the vibe I want to go for with this! GREAT CALL (& great choice of style icon!) thanks for watchin Lorien :)

[@tracyhuckaby5876]

[@cremeuxkraft9019]

Mess it up? You mean give it the ol razzle dazzle? Pro razzles here!

[@KathleenIllustrated]

HAHA. This made me laugh. Thank you. This is officially a Pro Razzle Community (the candy included)!!!

[@Zullala]

I want to expand my wardrobe... But I only have 4 fabric cubes worth of clothing space. My poor sweater cube is busting at the seams haha. Normally I would just get rid of some clothes so that I can try out new ones. However I have gone through this process enough that I now love every item I own... But I still want to try out new looks. I thought about just going to the thrift store and trying out items there, but I know myself. I'll buy them haha. Especially since dressing rooms never opened back up here. I'm thinking maybe to get a bin to slide to the back of the bed.

[@KathleenIllustrated]

ahhh that's tough, especially when you love everything you have! ✨ thanks so much for watching!

[@fitnessocelot123]

I have that purple dress! It's one of my most favourite things (and that's high praise, considering it's not vintage 😂)

[@RubyCoughDrop]

I gasp/gulped when you put on the blue dress

[@KathleenIllustrated]

SAME! 🧚‍♂️ pure magic!!! Thanks for watchin, Emily 💕

[@summers_shelves]

I just got to the purple dress and my eye is twitching in utter admiration. I'm so. happy. for. you.

[@KathleenIllustrated]

AHHH it's so dreamy ✨ I hope you're able to find your own purple dream dress so your eye can stop twitching hehe thank you so much for watching, summer!

[@charlottemundloch7033]

[@LeopoldWinsley-qw2yl]

so off-topic, but I adore your hair! 😭 it makes me sad about my own thick hair that would never curl in a billion years; I envy your hair so much. 💕

[@KathleenIllustrated]

Whaaat 🥲 no YOUR vibes are immaculate!! So glad to have you here!

[@erika1750]

Your dark brown curly hair mixed with the blue vintage dress is the vibe of Padme from Revenge of the Sith if George Lucas had started Star Wars with the prequels back in 1977 instead of episode 4 😄

[@janemahan2663]

The blue dress is stunning on you.

[@KathleenIllustrated]

Thanks Jane! I appreciate you watchin’ 💙🧡

[@lulucestmoi]

🥹 what da heck you’re too kind! I’m so glad you’re enjoying all the THINGS!!! 🧡❤️⭐️

[@FurikoMaru]

I don't wear heels, so I only appreciate them as objets d'art, but in that spirit I say find a bunch of really cheap colourful comics and some Mod Podge and go full Roy Liechtenstein. Don't forget to finish it with a waterproofing spray so all that work doesn't get ruined in the first rain you get caught in.

[@KathleenIllustrated]

omg! i happen to share a birthday with mr. liechtenstein so maybe it's fate 👀 thanks for watching!!!

[@knowdanielle]

That blue gown reminds me of The Virgin Suicides

[@KathleenIllustrated]

[@KathleenIllustrated]

Hope!!! Welcome!!! So glad to have ya 💕 & I hope you enjoy working through the back catalog - there’s plenty to catch up on 👀✨

[@MelliaBoomBot]

Hell I like some squiggly wiggly as well. I remembered from other stuff Ive seen that the emphasis maybe on the actual heel of shoes this ye but that might affect the structure of the shoe if you start drilling or something lol but food for thought.🐧

[@KathleenIllustrated]

haha! i hadn't thought of actually BUILDING something (or removing something??) from the heel. I like the way you think, my friend!!! Also squiggly wiggly fans UNITE

[@wlammy4ever]

The 80s boots are so beautiful!! Who says they are ugly!? Imma punch them

[@KathleenIllustrated]

[@lisas5245]

I love the shoes! :)

[@KathleenIllustrated]

YES I’m glad! 💃🏻

[@graceisonline]

"The internal scream I internally scrumpt" - yes. Very much yes to this. I found a vintage Loewe pussybow blouse yesterday, and let me tell you - the internal scream that I internally scrumpt? Deafening.

[@graceisonline]

Oh, also - subscribed.

[@KathleenIllustrated]

oh my gosh you did NOT find loewe at the thrift store what the actual heck!!!!!!!!! (also hi new friend thanks for being here!!!!!! let us internally scrim in a heavenly chorus!!!!)

[@KathleenIllustrated]

That’s a GREAT idea Wayne! Thanks friend 💙⭐️

[@pattimcfarlane8504]

I say, take the vibe you've got going on with your mike and transfer that to the platform shoe. What does "feedback" look like? aaand go!

[@KathleenIllustrated]

okay I'm pickin' up what you're puttin' down, patti! I like this idea!

[@gothhankhill69]
