What to Retire for Spring 2021

[@helloimsara6364]

This very long torso of mine will never have to see low rise jeans again. I'll be keeping my high waisted ones. Much better proportions for me!!

[@sewaldodiy]

I almost did not recognized you because you are wearing a happy and bright color and I'm all for it!

[@amelitatoledo6657]

where did you get this yellow dress ?

[@michellybelly24]

Love you, but not retiring most of these things

[@soniahierro7403]

Thanks Kim. I love watching your videos. I love your personality, your style, your knowledge, your expertise and your kindness. You inspire me so much. Thanks so much for putting yourself up there for all of us. All the best, Sonia Xx

Ugh! Skinny’s look so good on me. Mom jeans 😭 hate me.

[@editharredondo9209]

I am not giving up my skinny jeans

[@grettasg]

@@editharredondo9209 same here, trends are always changing, so there is no point to follow them, especially the ones that are not what you like to were! 😬🌟

[@jesss2145]

Keep wearing them if they are your thing! They are still in style!

Ditto😹

[@bluevictory1010]

I only wear skinnies, love 'em and will never give 'em up.

[@vgilic]

When you find out that everything you hate is in style 😢 . .. guess I will just remain out of style until it all comes back again lol.

[@KimXO]

Lol!!

[@BethHurt2010]

Same. I can’t do it, I have to wear my skinnies, classic blacks and whites, and baseball hats. I can’t do any of this....I never wear bright colors, hate hate hate.

[@thalialoera1]

High waisted jeans and baseball caps stay for me! I love wearing my sport outfits And low waisted jeans look so awkward on so many people than high waisted.

[@KimXO]

Agreed!

[@lizzettealexis9790]

Kim this is the 1st time I have seen you in any color. I will embrace the wide pants I love them prior to the pandemic. They are great during the spring with some wedges. Head bands give me headaches. Love your videos.

[@KimXO]

Lol! Headbands used to give me headaches too! I found a few good ones I guess! Thanks for watching and taking the time to say hi!! Xo

[@pajamamama5965]

Such great and helpful content! I would appreciate a shop your closet style video for spring. In desperate need of ideas, its been winter for so long.

[@KimXO]

That sounds good. I’m pretty sure I’ve done one of these, but I’ll do another one for Spring. I can show you how to do this. For now, start with a clean up before I do this so you are ready! Xo

[@pajamamama5965]

@@KimXO wonderful! Thanks so much. I will work on a clean out. Now I am motivated!!!! Can't wait for that video 😘

[@sandiscalmanini8096]

helpful tips. Trousers are back. I am thrilled. but the headband? I need to cover up the big messy hair or shade.

[@altitudeiseverything3163]

A headband is *not* a replacement for a baseball cap! I’m in my 60s and my advice to young women is to *always* wear a brimmed hat when going outdoors. I’ve always been very careful about this and as a result have far fewer wrinkles and age spots than most of my friends 10+ years younger, who were more careless. And no, sunscreen isn’t enough, unless you’re actually going to reapply it to your face every couple of hours. Wear the damn hat! You’ll thank me in 30 years. 😉

[@lisar7206]

I have sooo many cute hats I'm dying to wear once it warms up here....wide brimmed, rancher hats, ones that I love wearing to wineries and boating...I think she still likes those kind of hats but maybe not specifically baseball hats. Preventing aging is definitely motivating for me too!

[@altitudeiseverything3163]

@@lisar7206 I love those, too! And fedoras! Living in Colorado, I do a lot of hiking, so baseball caps are a go-to, since a jacket hood can easily fit over them when it gets chilly, or rainy. ‘Hiking hats’ -though more protective- are pretty frumpy-looking, LOL! I do have to remember to reapply sunscreen to my neck when wearing baseball caps, though. We have the highest skin cancer rate in the US here, because of the altitude.

[@lisar7206]

@@altitudeiseverything3163 wow! So not good about the skin cancer. Agree on the hiking hats!! I just sold one of mine because I didn't reach for it for about 10 years! My main hat I have is the one from Aritzia that Kim recommended years ago!! (The vegan leather baseball cap).

[@melissad.2908]

Yeah - I’m with you! Sunscreen and a hat! Headband is not a replacement...

[@wendybrookes1878]

As a petite woman, don’t think I can carry off oversized top and bottom...thought the guideline was to have one piece fitted? Enjoy your videos thanks

[@floralaura2543]

I was thinking the same.

[@KimXO]

It really depends on the cut, material and fit on you. There is so many different variations, if you are interested definitely try a few on and see. You can send me pictures on my IG DM and I will help you xo

[@altitudeiseverything3163]

I’m only 4’11”. Last year J.Crew had jeans and slacks that were a “slim wide leg” cut. I took a chance and was surprised that they were perfect! They didn’t make me look shorter, and since they were a bit fitted at the waist and hips, they look great with a *slightly* oversized top, tucked in the front. Check them out; they may work for you, too.

[@wendybrookes1878]

@@altitudeiseverything3163 thanks...yes the tucking in will help..just so hard to find the right fit. I’m outside Toronto so returning merch to the US is a pain especially if I’ve already paid duty. Unfortunately during covid all the stores that I used to use, have left Canada, like Ann Taylor, J Crew, Loft and WHBM. They were my go tos... But...will keep searching.. I’ll look at the website and see what might work and try to find here. Thanks...

Do you mind showing us how to style non-skinny jeans with Sorel type winter boots as it’s still below freezing with lots of snow here.

[@janitapanos240]

Oh my, I am sooo happy you are advising us to retire skinny jeans, Kim!! I have sold most of my skinnies on Poshmark this winter and snapping up Mother jeans that are cropped and slightly flared. I’m loving this newer silhouette. BTW You look pretty in the yellow puff sleeve dress!

[@sandycosentino1042]

I have watched many videos of you now. Love your channel. Typically you wear basics. I haven’t seen any yellow lol. I would love a video on what jewelry is in or out (fashion pieces).

[@KimXO]

I will do an accessory video, great idea :) Apparently I wore yellow once in 4 years! Who knows when lol

[@kathyrae5574]

I think you nailed it… I feel like I’m breaking up with my skinny pants… Every time I look at them I think, no I’m just not pairing with you today! Loving my joggers, but still not crazy about wide legged pants. I know you wore a yellowish color, and I thought it was swimwear, but I looked back to June 2020, and you had on a yellow floral dress… And where I kept that information in my brain I don’t know?!

[@KimXO]

Bahhhhh!! I need to look that up June 2020. Now I’m finding you a prize :)) What video is that? That’s serious brain storage you have. I love it ‘breaking up’ with the skinny’s 😂

[@kathyrae5574]

OK it was a video you were doing about swimwear but you were wearing a floral type jumpsuit or a dress? I don’t need a prize… I just need you to keep doing your great videos! Plus I’m off to the mountains for a little R&R tomorrow🤗❤️... (I will probably be in warm athleisure wear 🌄)

[@ev7233]

Hey just wondering, can you do a video on how to wear the oversized trend if you have a larger chest? I have a larger chest and boxy/oversized shirts and jackets make me look straight up pregnant unless I belt them 😫

[@KimXO]

Great idea! I’ll put that in my notes now. I have a big chest for my size so I know how you feel. It needs to have an open v for sure and rolling or pushing up sleeves helps, belts and then balancing the bottom.

[@EnergizeVitalize]

Good idea... set items aside and revisit them in the future ... 🤔 Have a merino wool sweater that got many holes in it. I sewed up the holes with red dots, ladybugs all over it as I was thinking of my friend who was seriously ill... so her. Well that week I received the call that she had passed ... the sweater keeps getting holes and I keep sewing ladybugs ... not retiring as my remembering sweater 💓😉

[@myoldmanbaby]

I'm a pear shape and I LOVE wide leg trousers. They're my favorite. It accentuates my waist, and adds balance to my butt with the wide leg. I still look VERY pear shaped with them on, but I like that.

[@juliaskiles6661]

Yuuuuck!!!! Lol, although I like the items you suggest adding, I think I'd recommend adding these things in with the suggested retired items, and wearing both for more options 😉

[@LLisa180]

I’m an hour glass shape...over size just ends up adding size to me....I don’t think that’s a good look

[@KimXO]

You would need to belt the waist to not look dumpy :)

[@laurajunebaran8898]

My favorite pair or pants are super high waisted skinny jeans. I will try to find a new pair of loose pants though ;)

[@annlatham]

You can actually wrap a scarf around any headband ! I think I will wear a scarf under my hats ❤️

[@bodyandsoul17]

[@deniseyounger6004]

Today you are wearing yellow. I tried it but because I let my hair go grey it didn’t suit. Skinny jeans I have not problem retiring. Low waisted anything never going to happen I love wide leg but like it in flowing materials. I’m investing in good quality sporty clothes as I like to walk and workout. A dress a day in the summer.

[@jesss2145]

I am getting rid of most skinny jeans, because I have thick legs and all the other fits are so much better on my body type. Gotta keep a few for certain boots. I will keep high rise and will be going for looser fits! PS you showed really cute high rise wide leg pants and then said not to wear high rise immediately afterwards. I'm not clear on the message... Love all your videos! I always come away with something worthwhile! 😁

[@darlazoch1309]

[@esmereldahakk1660]

Sorry, but I will never wear one of those ugly big, padded, knotted headbands. They make people look about 12 years old, and although I prefer looking young for my age, I gotta draw the line somewhere. lol! I agree with several of the ladies, I'm not getting rid of my skinny jeans. Mom jeans look horrible on me and I am that pear shape that's hard to fit so many styles. I do, however, tend to keep just about everything. Trends come around again and again, so I just pull them back out when the time comes. Luckily I have a huge closet. It's called the basement. lol!!
