1
What's good?
2
Today I'm going to recreate some of my old outfits and make them better.
3
How am I going to do that?
4
Well, I'm going to walk you through the whole process
5
and hopefully this video can help you learn how to upgrade your outfits as well.
6
Fashion is in the details and there are a few small
7
but intentional choices that you can make to elevate your daily style and make a huge impact on your overall look.

10
Now let's get into it.
11
If you look at all of these older outfits,
12
they all kind of have something in common.
13
What is that?
14
Well, one of the biggest fashion mistakes that I made in the past is not understanding fit and proportion.
15
And that's mainly because I didn't understand my body.
16
Now let me walk you through what I mean by this.
17
When I used to gather outfit inspiration from Pinterest,
18
I thought that I could just use any sweater or any coat as long as it was similar.
19
I also thought, well this girl is skinny and I'm skinny too so it'll look the same on me.
20
There's two gigantic mistakes that I made here.
21
The first mistake I made is not understanding fit.
22
The material, stiffness, and cut of a garment is what determines the overall look of a piece.
23
For example, a lightweight blazer is going to have a very different look from a wool blazer
24
because the stiffness of the wool creates a more structured look.
25
So if you see a Pinterest girly wearing thick plaid pants and you try to recreate the outfit with lightweight plaid pants,
26
you might think, oh, well, she's wearing plaid pants.
27
I have plaid pants, so it should work out.
28
But you're going to get a very different outfit simply because of the weight and structure of the fabric.
29
The second mistake I made is not understanding proportion.
30
And a lot of that had to do with the fact that I didn't understand my body.
31
Now, I used to think that I had super broad shoulders because when you objectively look at the shape of my body,
32
my shoulders are wider than my hips.
33
So I was like, yeah, I have broad shoulders.
34
But then I started coming across pictures of celebrities that actually had broad shoulders and I thought to myself,
35
hmm, maybe my shoulders aren't as broad as I thought they were.
36
And so I pondered on this for a very long time until I had an epiphany
37
and came to the realization that it's not that my shoulders are broad,
38
it's that my hips are really narrow.
39
This piece of information was invaluable to me because I was able to learn that different types of fabrics,
40
styles, and cuts will fall on my body differently than someone with wider shoulders or wider hips.
41
Another huge piece of information that I learned about my body is
42
that I have really long legs in comparison to my torso.
43
Now, some people have long legs and a short torso.
44
Some people have a long torso and short legs,
45
and some people are more balanced.
46
Regardless, clothing is going to look different on different proportions.
47
If you're going to recreate an outfit that you see someone else wearing,
48
you need to consider their proportions as well as your own.
49
For example, someone with a longer torso and wider hips looks very different from me,
50
even if we're wearing a similar outfit.
51
Now these two things are kind of why I'm reluctant to agree with that whole
52
is this a good outfit or is she just skinny sort of thing?
53
Because look, I see skinny people with terrible outfits all the time.
54
I mean, look at these.
55
The thing is that celebrities have stylists and stylists understand everything that I just talked about.
56
They understand fit and proportions and the way different fabrics drape around different body types.
57
Celebrities pay good money to look good.
58
Everyone has the ability to be stylish.
59
You do not need to be skinny to have good outfits.
60
You just need to understand your proportions and the fit and cut of the clothing that you're buying.
61
Make your closet work for you,
62
not the other way around.
63
Now that we've got all that covered,
64
let's put all that knowledge into practice and recreate some of my old outfits together.
65
Okay, so I can immediately identify why this outfit doesn't work.
66
The biggest one is that these jeans have way too short of an inseam.
67
Remember how I said I have long legs and a short torso?
68
Well, these jeans are too short on me.
69
Another thing I can identify is that the pant legs kind of taper inwards.
70
Because I have narrow hips and wider shoulders,
71
these tapered pants bring attention to the fact that I have very narrow hips,
72
and this makes the outfit look very imbalanced.
73
Let's swap out these jeans with these.
74
These jeans are longer, which is much more suitable for the length of my legs,
75
and they are slightly flared,
76
which balances out my narrow hips.
77
Having black on top and white on the bottom is way too much contrast for this outfit,
78
especially because my body doesn't have balanced proportions.
79
So let's switch out this black shirt with this cropped white one.
80
This is much more balanced, right?
81
Look at how big of a difference being more intentional makes.
82
Alright, three key issues with this one.
83
Number one, these are the same jeans that I was wearing in the first outfit.
84
They're too short.
85
Number two, tapered legged pants look better with a more narrow shoe.
86
These boots are too chunky for these jeans, creating an imbalance.
87
Number three.
88
It's kind of hard to tell with this lighting,
89
but this blazer is quite fit to the body,
90
yet the shirt that I'm wearing underneath is pretty loose.
91
This makes the shirt look super wrinkled because there's too much fabric that isn't accommodated by the fit of the blazer.
92
And it was honestly quite uncomfortable to wear because of that.
93
So let's fix this.
94
Let's switch out the jeans with the same pair from outfit one.
95
Now personally, when I wear pants and a shirt,
96
I like to show skin somewhere to break up that kind of solidness of an outfit and add more interest.
97
Otherwise, it can feel a bit overwhelming and uncomfortable like I'm drowning in clothing.
98
In the first outfit, I achieved this with a cropped t-shirt,
99
but in this outfit, I'm going to do this with a v-neck top.
100
Well, this is actually a bodysuit,
101
but you know the vibes.
102
Boom!
103
This is already looking way more balanced.
104
I'm going to keep the same color scheme here so I'm going to wear these black booties.
105
As you can see they are much more narrow of a silhouette than the other boots
106
and they're also a lot pointier which in my opinion looks more striking
107
and adds more visual interest so I'm going to put these on.
108
In the original outfit you can see that the blazer is quite snug.
109
This outfit is pretty casual and I want to feel comfortable in this outfit
110
so I'm going to switch out that blazer for this one that is way looser of a fit.
111
Also, I found that double-breasted blazers look kind of weird on me anyway.
112
I think it's because I have a narrow body,
113
so it's too much fabric for me and it makes me feel and look like I'm drowning.
114
With that being said, if you are trying to recreate someone's outfit,
115
consider the fit of the clothes that the person is wearing.
116
Okay, there's a lot going on here.
117
I don't know what I was thinking when I put this outfit together.
118
Like what was that about?
119
So let's fix it.
120
Now I still have this shirt,
121
but here's why I don't really wear it these days.
122
This shirt is very thin and flimsy.
123
Because of this, it wrinkles very easily and it clings to my body in very unflattering ways.
124
I mean, look at the way it's clinging to my bust area.
125
It's super uncomfortable when you have to constantly mess around with your clothing throughout the day.
126
Personally, I feel way more confident in my outfit when I know
127
that it looks good no matter how it's laying on my body.
128
With this shirt, I am constantly worried about it clinging in unflattering ways and I'm always messing with it.
129
On the other hand, let's take a look at this graphic tee.
130
The fabric is quite thicker and there's a little bit more structure in the shoulders,
131
so it doesn't cling to my body,
132
it falls on it like a hanger.
133
This is a much more comfortable and flattering type of graphic tee, for me anyway.
134
Now, keep in mind that these are both men's shirts and they're both the same size.
135
The key difference here is the fabric weight or density.
136
One clings and one falls.
137
Let's go with the more flattering option.
138
These pants that I'm wearing in the older outfit were trousers,
139
like a business casual trouser.
140
And I love trousers.
141
I wear them when I wanna be put together and I wear them even when I'm styling a streetwear outfit.
142
I just love the juxtaposition.
143
I love trousers.
144
The problem here is that these are not the trousers for me.
145
They're too short.
146
And once again, they are tapered.
147
Now, I don't know why I had so many short tapered pants.
148
Maybe it was the trend at the time,
149
but it was not the trend for me.
150
That's why it's so important to understand your body and have a personal style.
151
Because if you just follow trend after trend,
152
they might not work for you.
153
They might not look good.
154
You might not be comfortable and it'll be a complete waste of money.
155
But anyway, back to the pants.
156
We're going to swap these out for these trousers.
157
Wow, what a difference.
158
They're a much better length and again,
159
they slightly flare out to create more balance.
160
Plus, these are pleated and because I have narrow hips,
161
this little pleat detail adds a little more volume to my hip area,
162
making me look more balanced.
163
This color palette is all over the place.
164
I'm actually going to keep the red shoes for a pop of color,
165
but we're going to switch out this jacket for a black one because look,
166
that just makes more sense.
167
Now I was probably wearing that jacket because it was a little cold outside
168
so I'm gonna match the energy here and put on this lightweight puffer.
169
Boom!
170
To accessorize I'm gonna wear this red bag so that your eyes go across the outfit.
171
Without the bag your eyes go straight to the shoes.
172
You know what I'm saying?
173
So matching that bag with the shoes makes your eyes see the outfit as a whole.
174
It goes from top to middle to bottom as opposed to like just going to your shoes
175
Gee whiz what a terribly proportioned outfit Wowzers two main issues with this one one.
176
It's very top heavy I'm wearing this furry jacket thing,
177
which is huge compared to the bottom half of my body
178
Which is a terrible combination for someone who has no hips
179
This outfit is bringing attention to the fact that there are no hips there.
180
The other issue is the skinny jeans.
181
Now look, if you want to keep wearing your skinny jeans,
182
then you should do that.
183
I personally don't think that they are the most flattering type of pant for a majority of body types.
184
Again, if you're comfortable in your skinny jeans and you love them,
185
then you should keep wearing them.
186
But if you're like me and you only ever wore skinny jeans
187
because they were the trend at the time and not because they actually look good or are comfortable to wear,
188
then consider not wearing them anymore.
189
Explore literally any other type of pants.
190
And yes, I am talking to you, fellow millennials.
191
Once you release yourself from the chains of skinny jeans,
192
you will find fashion so much more exciting because there are so many different types of pants out there.
193
Now for me, the reason why I don't like skinny jeans,
194
especially in this picture, is because I have narrow hips and these high-waisted skinny jeans are not doing anything for me.
195
I also have really skinny long legs.
196
I look like a pair of training chopsticks.
197
So let's fix this.
198
Let's make this outfit monochromatic.
199
Boom!
200
Less contrast means that my uneven proportions are less pronounced.
201
We are also not wearing skinny jeans anymore.
202
We got flared pants on.
203
Look, lots of women don't have that perfect hourglass shape.
204
I would actually say that most of us don't.
205
I'm one of them.
206
I will never look like this,
207
but I can create an hourglass silhouette by making my pants flare out at the bottom to mirror my shoulder line.
208
This looks much more balanced, doesn't it?
209
Okay, I don't hate this outfit.
210
I think it looks alright.
211
But there are a few tweaks that we can make to make it an outfit.
212
You know what I'm saying?
213
Like right now, this is just aight.
214
But we want a look, you feel me?
215
Because right now I look like a Silicon Valley tech bro that just discovered what an overcoat is.
216
So let's start with the sweater.
217
Let's swap this out with a crew neck sweatshirt.
218
The original sweater was a turtleneck and I felt a little claustrophobic in it especially
219
because I'm wearing so much fabric in this outfit.
220
The lowered neckline of this new sweater feels a lot more comfortable for me.
221
The sweatpants in the original outfit are tapered at bottom and because this sweatshirt is a little loose fitting,
222
I don't want to be heavy on the top
223
and skinny on the bottom because this is going to create that same imbalance that I had in that last outfit.
224
I'm going to put on a pair of looser fit sweatpants.
225
I think having an exposed ankle with sweatpants can look a little awkward
226
so I'm going to swap out these low top sneakers for high tops.
227
This coat is nice.
228
I still have it but I haven't been wearing it as often
229
because I recently got another one that fits me way better.
230
This one is longer, so it harmonizes really well with my elongated body.
231
The other coat that I had was shorter,
232
and I don't know how to explain it,
233
but it was a really awkward length for how long I am.
234
In contrast, when my mom,
235
who is quite a bit shorter than me,
236
wears a coat with a similar length,
237
it looks more harmonious on her.
238
In my personal opinion, if you're on the taller side or if you're shorter but you have really elongated limbs,
239
a longer coat looks better.
240
This is just my opinion.
241
This coat also fits looser.
242
If you look at the beige coat,
243
the shoulder lines are closer to the collarbone whereas the darker coat has a more elongated shoulder line
244
and the armpits are positioned much lower.
245
This is great because it leaves room for any loose-fitting sweater that you wear underneath.
246
So while the original outfit wasn't necessarily bad,
247
it was kind of just okay.
248
This new outfit has a lot more flavor.
249
It's a little bit more stylish and those small changes that we made have a really big impact on the overall look.
250
So what do you guys think?
251
Do you think the new outfits are an improvement?

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
