TOP 10 CLOTHING PURCHASES OF 2021

[@p0keDAmo0seyXD]

I would love to know how you launder & take care of your pieces! This is something I am so interested in knowing from more high fashion creators, if you launder your pieces every so often or wash particular items in a certain way. The bralettes, blazers, pants etc. :)

[@eatmyoctopus]

I have all my expensive blazers and pants and most of my knits and tops dry cleaned. I also hand wash a lot of pieces or put them in the washer on the ‘delicate’ cycle.

[@wondeborah]

I second this comment!

[@a_tots]

Great question

[@MilkyMinded]

I soak all my vintage "dry clean only" garments in an Oxyclean bath w/ warm water then rinse & let air dry (unless they are wool or silk). For wools- a basic, unscented white bar of soap and cool water does the trick. Also stretch it back to its desired shape & lie it out flat to dry (It will keep its shape better this way). And silks can be hand washed using Tides Free & Gentle or other basic detergents like it! In between washes, I'll dilute rubbing alcohol w/ water (or cheap vodka) & put it in an empty spray bottle to sprits my garments. This will kill all the odor causing particles/bacteria & freshen it up! I sell vintage and have acquired lots of garment cleaning knowledge along the way. Hope this helps!

@@MilkyMinded absolutely !!! Thanks so much !!! What about coats ? How do you care for them ? Must say sometimes dry cleaning doesn’t feel enough . Also a great tip for wool and cachemire is to never wring them by twisting them . But gently squeeze out excess water them lay them flat on a towel and gently roll . Them lay them flat to dry . Also washing with Luke warm water require a luke warm rinse, it is the temperature difference that can really shrink and damage . Great material require great care . I had some of my cachemire for a solid ten years !

[@jowiens32]

Such a great idea and super helpful too. The cashmere sweater is my favorite ❤️ I’d love an updated coat closet tour. You have the best coats!

[@MilkyMinded]

Damn girl! You need to start hitting the thrift stores. Blazers, basic quality sweaters, vintage mens trousers galore! I'd love to send you a whole "thrifted alternatives" package to the pieces you love in your wardrobe. Better yet, it would be so fun to go thrifting with you if I lived anywhere near BC! But alas, I call Florida my home. You have such great style, I just know how much you could be saving ( not only fiscally but environmentally) & it hurts me in my loins! XOXO Loving Lanmas!

[@msninachou]

You are forever my fashion icon. Everything you wear is just so chic and timeless and I love it!!! Also, for the tangled necklace, have you tried untangling it with two sewing needles? Sounds weird , but the sewing needles are small enough to get in the tiny necklace holes and it takes some patience but you gently pull it to find out where you can untangle it. Hope that helps!

[@valhoff3]

That’s what I do, too! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@allanaramaa]

This is the best tip thank you!!!! 😭🙏🏻

[@ronni7167]

I used two sets of pointed tweezers. Always worked for me. This sounds great too.

[@gillicu]

I always wondered about the comment total on a non Lanmas giveaway video, glad to still be here. Loved the cashmere sweater!!

[@TheSecretbysarah]

I’ve bought the Zara pantaloons too back then. Now have them in grey, black , brown and in a linnen too ! Thank you for the recommendation 😍

[@dania.d2897]

I loved this! I have a similar color-scheme in my wardrobe. Would love to see how you construct your outfits for different occasions/outings, how do you decide what to wear together and jewelery and whatnot 🙏🏼

[@Bella_yearsley]

I loved this type of video! Even if I can’t afford some of these items, it’s nice to get an idea for some staples that I can search for at a lower price point. Thank you for the endless fashion inspo 🤩

[@jamiekillian4965]

Love this! Me too!

[@TheRubyyy123]

This is such a good idea for a video!! I would love to see another single item styling video like you did for the white shirt, I watch that video all the time! 🧡

[@tracyc9021]

Loved this idea!!! Please do this yearly! Or maybe seasonly!

[@jemforsyth]

I love your comfort yet stylish pieces. I am constantly in joggers and hoodies and on "dressed" days I still need to be comfortable. Great collection 👌

[@jessicarangel7200]

The Khaite sweater is a dream!! Such a classic piece

[@randacorkern5788]

Such a fun idea! You have such an “effortless, cool” style and I looooove it

[@hafsahtauseef391]

Favorite discovery was definitely COS. Their sweaters are to dieeee for omg 🥰

[@prachichawla8621]

Ah! Those pieces are so times less And fashionable. Love your style💕🥺 The khaite cashmere is something else♥️

[@stephmud]

💯 Agree on wearing trousers and jeans. Loved all your top picks but I'm SHOCKED there's no button down shirt in this list!!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@michellehiggins4657]

You have such a awesome unique style! I swear you could literally wear a potato sack and make It fashionable!! I love watching your clothing hauls and try ons! 🤍

[@renstout3594]

All the pieces you showed are such staples 🤩 I really do hope NA-KD makes the trench a core piece in their collection!!

[@KimberlinLuv]

If I guessed nothing else I knew the Abercrombie jeans would make the list haha. More fashion/styling related videos pleaseeeeeee I love them!

[@ShaoniRoy]

I believe that blazers can give anyone a sudden boost of confidence 😎

[@KKemmm]

Your style has been huge inspo for me this year. Love this style of vid.

[@carrieturcotte5078]

Body suits truly are life changing. Not having to tuck in a top under a sweater all day is the blessing I never knew I needed until I started wearing them.

[@OliviaNJackson]

Wee video idea 😊 would love to have a Vancouver favourites - doesn't have to be a tour, but restaurants, cafes, things to do that you recommend! Would be amazing

[@andreeanicoletabanu]

I loved this type of video! You just keep on giving us pristine fashion style and tips. 🙌🏻

[@danabirch4334]

Forever here for your dedication to a trouser because SAME

[@ashleyursic6047]

LOVE!!!! thanks to you and Dejan for all your effort this Lanmas 🥰

[@kimgreen7458]

Definitely learning to be more mindful of the purchases I make so they last me longer than the season they’re on trend. Love this video! I so so wish these brands made my sizes. I was to be chic and fab like Lan!!

[@hanna7070]

Ok, now I have to try bodysuits! ☺️ Thank you for your inspiration!! This year I started to rebuilt my entire wardrobe and focused on: - more neutral colors - better quality - what suits me the best - what is comfortable & suitable for my lifestyle

[@marielbetge3406]

Not surprised by your picks, lol 👍🏼 I've gotten into oversized shirts, sweaters and jackets. Can't believe how much I like how they look on me because I'm pretty short. But that's what I've been enjoying in 2021 😉

[@kindyskanvas]

I’ve commented this many times in the past but I live for your blazers forever. I love them being part of the background

[@amandabuccilli2979]

So excited for this video! My question for the Q&A video was tips/tricks to feel and style at an elevated, more sophisticated, way. This is so helpful. Though, I feel like that could be a full video. "things that make me feel sophisticated/timeless"!

[@shaiestrella]

I love this type of video! Would definitely want to see more. Maybe do top 10 of each category! :)

[@mmellyful]

I ordered a pair of dad jeans after your recommendation! Abercrombie should sponsor you. You landed them some sales. Love the grey collared v-neck cashmere sweater too! Love your style.

[@danidaily9056]

Loving the elevated basics! Gorgeous🎄🍷

[@mariacarpitella2286]

Hi Allana, just a tip. To untangle a necklace just apply an oil (baby oil works great) to the chain. Run between your fingers and just work the tangle out with either a pin or sewing needle. This usually takes a knot or tangle out of jewelry fine chains.

[@kimberlyayodele19]

I love the Everlane cardigan you are wearing in the video! So so cute and I love Everlane!

[@iristheron9739]

Love your capsule wardrobe/ neutral staples inspired wardrobe. 😍

[@meredithmacmillan8838]

Those cashmere sweaters are so chic! Love the casual look but elevated style

[@eileenboffo6300]

Great video, great picks! My favourite purchase was a white linen blazer.

[@jacquelinegarrow6203]

Blazers are so classy and look good all year-round!

[@TheKrswett]

I bought the curve love dad jeans and they should be here tomorrow! Fingers crossed! Jean shopping has been depressing lately lol

[@meredithann5737]

I just bought the Abercrombie 90s curve jeans! LOVE LOVE LOVE !!!!

[@peacefulpianissimo]

That Khatie sweater is beautiful, and yes- pricey. Love the Zara pants too.

[@manalel9806]

The video we didn't know we wanted, but that we always needed

[@laurahinton9221]

I'm so not a fashion girl, so I love seeing these videos because it gives me ideas of where to shop! 🙌

[@a_tots]

Oh, the menswear Zara pants, the white crop top and the jacket is a look I drool over! So so good! You are always my inspiration when it comes to clothing, your style is so classy and timeless! 🤍🤍🤍 EDIT: And the most important, everything looks so COMFY

[@lidiagonzalez919]

My fav is def the KHAITE cashmere sweater 🤩. Indeed theres affordable options available…I’m truly in love with that type of sweater. I have them in different colors and have them as kinda polo style for summer ugghhhh it’s amazing. The KHAITE one looks gorgeous 😭

[@AbrilP96]

Your fashion sense is chef’s kiss ✨

[@shi.rin.m]

THAT coat!!!!!! It makes my heart beat! I want it in black though! 😍👌🏼

[@smaxwell96]

oooooommmmg I was influenced by these Zara pants, and I actually ADORE them and also wear them all the time

[@maryk5520]

I’ve had a few surgeries this year and I’m having trouble finding a new style to conceal the tummy area. I am only able to wear dresses and like watching videos like these to motivate myself to keep dressing well.

[@asialowe1334]

I am obsessed with the wardrobe nyc blazer!!

[@lorrainenicolekeane]

Love your style so much, such an effortless classy lady vibe!

[@AmandaDawn87]

Loved this video! You inspire me to dress better which helped me so much after a tough year xx

[@ruthwilliamson796]

Your style is so chic & timeless. Really stunning pieces, definitely knew some of the pieces shown would be in todays vid! X

[@pinkstartwilight]

I loved this video!!🤍 my faves would be my oak & fort trousers, my basic Zara muscle ish tees, and my oversized stripped jumpers!

[@piajergens4116]

every clothing item in this video is just chef's kiss 👩🏻‍🍳😍

[@hannahjuliot7313]

This was so fun to see! Love clothing videos from you

[@TheClassicTeeV]

Love all your picks! Wish I had got my hands on that coat! She’s a beauty🥲

[@susanloncar5863]

Thanks for letting us in your closet. Because of your previous video I purchased 3 pairs of the Abercrombie jeans. I love them. ❤️

[@keefswims]

Another option for the zara crewneck is the jcrew 'cashmere crewneck boyfriend sweaterI got it in a bunch of colors last summer and it is PERFECT. perfectly oversized but not too hot and ideal for layering. Highly highly recommend! I aspire to someday have your incredible blazer collection. the wardrobe NYC one .... i must have it

[@joanneblakely2498]

Allana I love your style and all of your picks this year. You are very unique and make everything your own, I love that about you.

[@jenk4142]

My grandma taught me a trick….take a safety pin and poke the pin into the necklace knot and sort of just jiggle the pin. The knot will come right out.

[@stephess2165]

Great video! I’m definitely lacking some staples though, will have to find some of those „timeless“ pieces 😉

[@dawnclements9644]

Love seeing the evolution of your personal style. C’est chic!

[@valhoff3]

What a beautiful look on you with the black top! Truly striking - and I think your fair skin works well with the look. ❤️

[@marliarneson8786]

Take a pointy tweezer or something similar, try and stick it through the knot in the jewelry chain while it's laying (so that the tweezer goes through and touches the surface beneath) and then kinda shake it around, it usually loosens the knot for me, and then I use the tweezer to untangle it once it's loose!

[@hannahzantvoort9654]

I cannot wait for my curve love jeans to come!! Thanks for the recommendation!!

[@JenAlguire]

I’m going to be buying some new jeans in the new year, and I’ve already started scoping them out on A&F from your show and tell of them during Lanmas!

[@Jehniferj_4063]

That coat is absolutely perfect! Your entire top ten is insanely gorgeous! I absolutely adore your style & have given me inspo for sure Lan!! Thanks so much for sharing xoxoxo 🤗❤💚❤✌. I for sure am checking out those jeans too!

[@isabellamartini9653]

Also fell in love with the Abercrombie curve love jeans this year 🙌🏻 SO AMAZING! The 90’s style is my fave 😍

[@teresawilliams1201]

Excited to see tomorrows video for the makeup. It look so nice! I love when you do fashion videos ♥️

[@gladysarellano2471]

I love this video, your style is gorgeous, I especially love your blazers cause I'm a blazer girl as well, I loved them all !!!

[@jennifert9402]

Would love to see this be a Lanmas yearly round up

[@amnaayub9974]

I love your style!!! So classic and beautiful!!!!

[@krystal6874]

Your style is so stunning! I could never 😩

[@AnnasStyleDictionary]

Such beautiful looks! Keep up the good work 🤍

[@graciedavoren922]

Love this video!! It’s a great staples video, really want to focus on creating a staple, cohesive wardrobe in 2022. I’m definitely lacking key staple pieces

[@kateshapcott1785]

Not only a top 10 purchases, but also a perfect capsule wardrobe 😍

[@taywills94]

The AF jeans!! Big fan as well. 😮‍💨

[@jacquelyne8542]

Suggestion for your knotted necklace…take 2 needles or unfold paper clips and use them as “fingers”. Holding part of the knot with one of the needles and using the other to wiggle and pull apart the knot. (Definitely need to do this on a countertop, smooth surface) It many take a bit but it has worked for me in my retail days when the necklaces would end up a hot mess. Hope this helps❤️

[@RevampastryBlog]

good clothing choices Allana ..... I have some inspirations now for my wardrobe, thanks sweetie

[@sophiebella]

Hello gorg Lan 🥰 loved the video. You can really tell that you are a fashion lover, mixing luxury and high street rather than buying for the brand/logo 🙌 And I'm *here* for abercrombies comeback, these jeans are so flattering on me as a fellow 'larger-legged' gal haha! 😂 Sending lots of love to you and Dejan! ❤ x

[@evapottie3182]

Yes please to all your clothing choices 👌✨

[@melanie-1027]

Zara trousers are a new discovery for me and I am in love. As far as a white bralette goes, Aubade makes a line called Bahia and it is stunning in white. 💖

[@maryannmaciver3002]

Your wardrobe is so classic and cool. That grey Khate sweater 😍 I sometimes wish I had a job that required me to dress up a bit, though I have no excuse really for my days off, and life after work. Leggings and sweats all day, every day ✌🏼Though I must thank you for showing me the way of the bodysuit. I never really considered them until I saw some of your looks with bodysuits, and oh my god, they are the best!

[@ladorada3276]

How in the world did you narrow it down to 10?! Your Reformation plaid coat, that you didn't mention🤔, is my favorite!

[@Cinnamxnstick]

Love this video format! You have the best style!

[@lisawirz]

I loooove the Love Curve Jeans! That recommendation was God sent 🙏

[@jesseniafleming8219]

Love LOVE clothing haul (or any clothing) vids…especially when they include brands I can afford 👍🏼😂

[@coreychatman6332]

Love your outfits and your makeup. Thanks for sharing this sweetie.

[@mro6479]

Love your style!! I'm doing a major closet cleanout and these are great ideas for refilling what I am missing 👌

[@dafnabreines301]

Love this video - so much fun. And tutorial on that makeup look, please.

[@moranac4240]

I love your picks. Those bralettes are specially stunning.💕

[@emmaw_e]

I also added a beautiful blazer to my collection, can't wait to wear it more in 2022 !

[@jessicaday9009]

I love the cashmere sweater. 😍

[@anajovanovic1102]

It was so interesting to see that a lot of your favs were also my favs (different price points, but the same styles), I would also like to add to my list all my leather boots from Zara that I got on sales (yay me!), I'm such a sucker for boots... Also I got a vintage Versace blazer that I know I will have and wear forever! oh, and vintage levis 501's are my newest obsession, the only jeans that are flattering on my curveless figure :D loving the vlogmas! ❤

[@user-uk8mb7ur6f]

Fantastic idea, loved this video!! The bodysuits are my favourite!! I need them too in my wardrobe!😊

[@lalucyinthesky1]

This is a great concept for a video! Loved

[@caleighng8813]

I get all my inspo from you and you have truly helped me find my own style. I love your comfy esthetic so much! My favorite piece you bought had to be those Zara menswear pants. I would love to grab a pair for myself as they'd be perfect to where to the office. I also love that Khate sweater. I found a beautiful salmon colored one just like it at Marshalls and am obsessed with it so far. Love that style!
