[@melanieemertaylor]

imagine being in your early 40s and suddenly all your friends are middle aged parents and i'm here chilling and sending memes

[@robinphillips4005]

Yes! Same. I turned 55 this week and I'm like whaaaat?! I feel like I'm 25, definitely not 55!

[@clairepurnell4961]

I teared up watching the part of you eating before your event❤ It feels so silly because that salmon bowl is SO healthy, but as someone around your age who grew up not having people actually say these things and developing an ED as a teenager, I just am so glad the younger generation has voices like yours! Love you Brooke!!!

[@karinaz8756]

You absolutely SLAYED 😮that red carpet look. You’ll have to share the products. Your hazel eyes POPPED, the dress was next level gorgeous. You totally looked like a A-list celebrity.

[@amynicholls814]

I appreciate these more real everyday chill vids

[@Maldives2025]

best advice - don't hurry engagement or marriage, im in my 40s and half my friends are divorced or on their 2nd marriage. Worst thing you could possibly do is get married when someones not ready or get married to the wrong person just because of random societal pressure, it definitely can ruin your life.

[@AnneHayes-y4h]

Thanks for your consistency in uploading! ❤ ur 40 min vlogs especially since i can multitask while watching.

[@MariahMacDonald]

There is truly no “write answer” when it comes to weddings. Everyone does things differently, everyone has different expectations & things are often a lot different now than when our parents were in the stage. As a 2024 bride & having been to a number of engagements, bridal showers & weddings this is how I approach it, engagement: something small but thoughtful, if I got flowers like you mentioned I would have been thrilled! Anything that shows you care! Bridal shower: personally I like to do the personalized gift here! Know your audience but I love gifting a necklace with their wedding date engaged! Wedding day: registry or check! I heard once when gifting a wedding present you want to do something that would cover the cost of your dinner! I thought that was eye opening & made a lot of sense!

[@aliciakincaid516]

Will for now on be referring to my morning coffee as a celebration of life 😂❤ you looked fabulous at the movie premiere as well !!

[@annielauriex]

Honestly it's so true what you said about the push for 2024 goals. Everyone goes 110% the first couple weeks and dies down shorty after the new year. Like they are 2024 goals and not just January and it's okay to eat that chicken sandwich girl! lol 🤍

[@samjosal]

brooke’s earring hanging on for dear life omg

[@robinphillips4005]

"You're getting out of bed, congratulations!" 🤣☕

[@BronwynAlexandriaa]

When you said coffee is a celebration of life…. I’m using that 😂

[@MrsKFord222]

I got pregnant with my daughter at 26 and I thought my parents were going to be mad at me…like no I was a full adult lol…and they weren’t mad 😂

[@nicolesmith251]

from now on...my morning coffee is a celebration of life 😄

[@samanthabissell22]

knowing that you mentioned that you made it seem or something like that to comparing yourself as seems like it happens to everybody as I too appreciate the chill videos

[@lenavonstein9671]

The fuchsia-hot-pinkish colour looks sooo good on you

[@natalienicolep]

You’re such a sweet person to care so much about the whole “Engagement/wedding” gift giving. I feel like a lot of people don’t care or think about it as much especially if they’re not engaged themselves. Thank you so much for making this a thing! Love it 🥹🫶🏼✨

[@mayap6623]

As a 2024 bride but also someone who plans a lot of events, I would say for weddings you don’t really give a gift when someone gets engaged - just a congratulations and conversations of how it happened or if you’re with them buy a drink or something. The gifts are mainly for the events as a thank-you. So mainly: 1. If they have an engagement dinner (buy a drink or their dinner or bring a card/bottle of something); 2. Bridal Shower: a fun gift or something specific for the bride or something useful off the registry; 3. Bachelorette: Fun little something or a group gift with the other attendees! (Doesn’t have to break the bank but this is the time to celebrate your friend!) 4. Wedding: A gift off the registry. You don’t want to waste money so make sure it’s not junk or throw away cute items, but something useful and personal! (Also, I know this seems like a lot but you can do it on a budget or not at all if it's your preference. Just don't complain to your bride friends about costs - cause they're probably gifting you a lot during this time and also paying for a WEDDING!)

[@Littlebluedynamite1]

Damn, thats a lot of events! In Poland usually we only have bachelorette party and then the wedding, i would be overwhelemed by the amount of parties if I had to have all 4 of them 😂😂 we also usually don’t have registry, for the most part people give money in an envelope which I think is more usable than gifts but to each their own 😁😁

[@mayap6623]

​@@Littlebluedynamite1 very true - it's a lot of events and overwhelming (especially for a bride, but not everyone does all 4). Money is definitely a super practical gift, but I'm a gift giver so I love the idea of a thoughtful gift that's also usable and will show the couple you put effort into thinking of them.

[@ozatanvi]

Obsessed with that gorgeous pink dress - you slay! 😍 Your Cute NYC days vlog brought so much joy to my day! 🏙 Thanks for spreading love & positivity, Brooke! 🥰✨

[@Tashas_Travels]

That woman at the back lol. 😂 2:00 , i felt like she was staring at me lol. I'm also planning and saving for an international trip.

[@cynthialeaf8358]

Your dark glossy hair is so gorgeous!

[@cathyjin7215]

I am still in awe of how stunning that pink dress looked on you 😍 excited to start my weekend with a Brooke vlog :)

[@BronwynAlexandriaa]

I got the hatch alarm clock DUPE on Amazon and it’s been incredible. It was $50 and it works incredibly well. And I do use it every single morning (except for the weekends lol) and my sound is the ocean

[@gabriellages]

Currently engaged and getting married in a month. I'm 33 and one of the last of my friends/family to get married. Gifting is my love language so I gave a ton of engagement gifts thinking that was the right thing to do, but I have received a grand total of ONE engagement gift since we got engaged a year ago. It was definitely eye opening and while I didn't give gifts expecting to receive them in return, I wish I would have known that it wasn't necessary because gift giving and traveling for weddings can definitely add up in your late 20s when it feels like you have a wedding all the time. But I agree that personalized gifts are unnecessary/clutter. I actually used to gift restaurant gift cards to my friends. My thought was it's nice to have a date night that you don't have to stress about paying for since wedding expenses are obscene. Date nights throughout my own engagement have been few & far between because we're paying for our wedding ourselves and I miss them :(

[@Falynamber]

There is so many things that I want to say throughout your video. I’m typically a silent follower, but I really relate to the comparing yourself. Ironically, I compare myself a lot to you. In my eyes, you, as well as Danielle truly very inspiring. As far as skin care goes, please look into Korean skin care. I have a Lotta recks. Retinol change my life as well. I also bit the bullet and went on Accutane a couple years back. I love you! Keep being ur most authentic self

[@Falynamber]

Stop overthinking by Nick Trenton is a self health book, if you will. Nonetheless, that one and the Subtle Art of Not Giving a #@%! by Mark Manson

[@LynnseeyDoee]

@falynwilliams47 What Korean skincare brands do you recommend??

[@elizabeththompson1525]

Car storage is such a great hack!

[@maurag17]

I’m reading Mystery Guest right now too!!

[@kathrynashtoncarter]

yes brooke with the broad city clip

[@mirandaalexis]

bro the realizations is legit me

[@eroemer13]

The child bride thing is so real! If I got pregnant rn (turn 26 in May) I would feel like it’s a teen pregnancy still. Definitely don’t feel my age but still feel the rush of the timeline aspects it’s just a weird mind game

[@rebeccamartinez2339]

As a pregnant 25 year old (turning 26 in July) i can confirm to you that i feel like a pregnant teenager. I tell people this all the time too 😂 but in reality I’ve been married for 2 years and I’m very much an adult LMAO… still feel like a pregnant teen tho

[@keyenakler]

this dress on you 💖✨🎀💋

[@delaneypetersen9882]

Red is SO your color!!❤❤

[@shawnaratliff4192]

It stinks though that those who don’t have a blue check mark by their name, don’t get the same service from companies. I’m glad they made it right for you though.

[@sdaniel6027]

Agree. The blue check and or large social media following offers better customer service sometimes. That would be a good reason to message them on social media versus email. Nice perk to have. 😊

[@carlottasilos7662]

if you’re referring to the Hatch, I’m not an influencer but I DM’d them a couple months ago asking if I could get a particular sound on my original Hatch, and they offered to upgrade mine and sent me a Hatch 2 for free😊

[@tamiabrown1781]

Worked for me too… I just set my new one up today

[@nadaleon3706]

A little commotion for the dress 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Also totally agree with your rant on the hatch, you pay your hard earned money and a year or two later the technology is obsolete or phased out.

[@nicoleashley8235]

I’m 44 and got married at 39. The more time goes on I think people should wait until at least 30yo to get married. So much growth is still happening in your 20s IMO. But you’re right, everyone’s paths different.

[@DheandraNicolette]

I’m turning 30 this year and very much single so this was comforting to read. I agree - you grow so much and get to know yourself in those vital years. I’m looking forward to more growth in my 30’s! 😊

[@Greenmonster1977]

"Congratulations, you got out of bed."😂

[@ashleystrayhorn3047]

We read all the same book! I’m finishing the second book now

[@emilychamberlain9033]

As someone who got married last month, the amount of stuff that your gifted is OVERWHELMING. I typically find it best to stay away from anything that says "Mr. & Mrs" and super niche customized stuff. Just becomes clutter imo but, definitely know your audience. Love the vlog Brooke!

[@billiehicks6587]

So happy for this informative and fun video❤🎉

[@karinaz8756]

Maybe do a podcast on wedding culture. I’m lost. I have 3 weddings as well and one is a destination wedding.

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

Hi Brooke happy new year to you and your loved ones and I hope you having amazing day today and I loved your vlogs and your Dress is sooo cute

[@marisatalarico8912]

Can you link the pink dress and your black workout top when you were at the gym ! So cute

[@brookemiccio]

here is the sports bra!!! bit.ly/3U0hXkH - use code BROOKE to save $$!! also put pink dress in the description

[@beyoutify31]

yes yes yes about the 2024 modern thing in movies ugh

[@TherealMyshow]

Please I need the link for the cheetah pants I’m obsessed

[@macyhanson]

love this vlog!! 🩷

[@ellynrebecca621]

I’m 28, one of my closest friends got married in August 2023 and she is 27. Her family are friends with our family and we were at a Christmas party and she was travelling down - her dad said to us, oh her and her husband.. and my brain just could not compute that. It felt so weird!!!

[@chi2om]

Need that castor oil. I have very fine natural brows. It’s probably good for edges too

[@Abbysnilloc]

Can you get us a discount code for the new hatch? That’s crazy about the premium sounds but I want one !!!

[@kristenelise]

My bf and I watched the same Pokémon show and we were so sad it was so short 😭😭 WE NEED MORE CUTE POKÉMONS

[@Nheynei]

The month in your video is "December" not "January", thought you should know. Btw, love your look in the Mean Girls premiere.

[@Nheynei]

@@AllisonIntheCity same, then I saw here fixing her Xmas tree then I thought she probably forgot to edit the dates.

[@brookemiccio]

Thank you!!! I didn’t even catch it

[@clairepurnell4961]

FELT🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@liviu589]

hey brooke where did you buy this watch? from 21:45

[@iammarccolomayt82094]

Cute NYC days vlog!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@wam6465]

DO NOT FORGET MOISTURIZER ON YOUR NECK!!!!!!!!!

[@CarolineBloomer97]

You look amazing in hot pink/dark purple 😻P.S. I liked you bringing up being on your own path. I’m almost 27, been married since I was 22 (married young!) and I get asked almost weekly when I’m having kids. I’m just not ready quite yet, and that’s ok! Just like you with getting married. Literally everyone is on their own path so don’t feel the pressure if you both just aren’t ready yet! 🫶🏼

[@liviu589]

nice vlog brooke

[@leahbarton6680]

Sugar. Increased sugar makes your cramps more intense.

[@kristavall]

I’m 26 and got engaged in august and I literally am a child bride, like what’s going on

[@brendathompson4939]

I'm 50 and on the pill...not because I can possibly get pregnant, but it's because I want to save lives....I'm a raging lunatic if I go off of it.

[@leahbarton6680]

A lot of commercialised skin care products are just a waste of hard earned money. The golden five skin care needs that work are; 1. Black Jamaican Castor Oil 2. Red Bean Water Gel (use as a serum and moisturiser) 3. Green Plum Refreshing Toner 4. Concentrated Vitamin E cream 5. Yanagiya Hair Tonic I have combination to oily skin and have suffered from either psoriasis or dandruff for a number of years. It wasn't until I did some more research and switched to these 4 years ago that my world changed. I no longer get breakouts, no scalp issues AT ALL and my hair has never grown so fast. Not only has it grown so fast but it is so much thicker, noticeably thicker.

[@lovingnicole4]

My coworkers and I are 26 and we consider a pregnancy right now a teen pregnancy 😂

[@missholidaygolightly5566]

I really enjoy vlogs like this 😊

[@Sheena27]

People need to stop asking people when they getting married and having kids its not the end all for everyone so they need to drop it.

[@theyallknowjojo]

the Hatchet alarm rant was so REAL I hope I spelled the alarm name right it's my first time hearing the name of it but I've definitely seen it before. I agree! hate when technology companies limit AND when they purposely have older versions deplete in functionality quicker than usual because they launch a new version and WANT you to upgrade! it's all a money game I say continue to voice concerns! Constructive criticism is so valuable these days! In the age where people literally provide fake reviews! This was honest and made me want to give it a try just because of that!

[@lozanosa89]

My mom was 27 when she had me and I didn’t even get married until I was 30 lol

[@Billy33753]

Enjoy the premiere

[@alexacase4993]

What’s the Pokemon show?

[@judykhaleck8034]

Have you ever heard of an influencer name Alexa Luria? She is from Boca Raton, Florida and currently she lived in Los Angeles, California. She has a foodie account called Girl With A Gourmet Palate. 🦋💚🌱😋🤤🍴

[@laurasouza1434]

I like when you tap products with your nails. Please don't stop.

[@beyonceturner661]

looks like your still in the month of December 😂

[@nanao22]

I had like 7 weddings this past year, my own included and I’m 23 😂 tbh I’ve never understood the attitude of people in their mid to late 20s feeling “too young” to be married, or calling themselves “child brides”… but that’s just my opinion lol

[@Alyssaa948]

People are just so different! My sister got married at 21 and had her kids at 22 and 24. But I’m 28 and I would feel like a child bride or teen mom haha I’m the best aunt ever!!

[@nanao22]

@@Alyssaa948 yea everyone’s different and to each their own… but why do you feel like a child/teen at 28? at 28 you’re closer to qualifying as a geriatric pregnancy (which is 35+) than you are from qualifying as a teen pregnancy (17 or younger) not judging I’m just curious

[@brookemiccio]

Totally agreed i don’t think it’s even a measure of maturity i think it’s just overall how you feel relatively. I feel like I have a lot more experiences I need to have to feel older and more set in my ways/stable

[@judykhaleck8034]

Have you ever heard of a KZbinr name Michel Janse? She is from Texas born & raised. She now lived in Oceanside, California with her now fiancé Jordy Searcy. They will be getting married in February. 👰 🤵 🐕 💒 🎩 🎊

[@patrickgabrielmendy9337]

Awesome

[@laurine5756]

Brooke I usually love your videos, but I didn't like the whole section on the Hatch alarm. Getting a product for free, not liking it, complaining, and then getting another one for free and dedicating an entire part of your vlog to it (essentially giving them publicity anyway) even though you don't like the product is not the move...

[@makayla6410]

Live laugh love Brooke miccio

[@judykhaleck8034]

Off topic question for anyone in the comments section. Have any of you who lived in NY or visiting NY when to see the broadway musical Spamalot. 🎭

[@wam6465]

You look great…. How have you lost the weight?!

[@billiehicks6587]

Excellent about the info of the new clock; all the rave with Influencers.❤😂
