@samaraisnt 4 года назад

There are like, 10 million people in LA. It's just a lot of selection and they keep the good stuff. Celebrities don't donate their clothes like that bc creeps& paparazzi get it and can flip it so they usually sell it on ebay or to an auction house.....

@samaraisnt 4 года назад

@Arthemise Jean Not to be pedantic here but film studios have their own sales for their old costume and props, but only people who work in the studio and stylists can go... I wish I could, lol. DIY Designer went to one if you're interested. They just have really good thrift in LA.

@samaraisnt 4 года назад

I know y'all want to believe it's Hollywood fairy dust, but mostly it's just people's old clothes, like every other thrift.

@jennifermendez4492 6 лет назад

would you be willing to do some type of how-to series for people just beginning to alter their own clothes? I thrift a lot, but like you said, not everything fits correctly as it is thrifted, and I would like to learn how to alter my clothes accordingly!

@stonecat676 6 лет назад

Pleaseeeeeee

@beebuzz959 6 лет назад

There are plenty of people on here who know how to do it the right way that I'd watch them instead, and watch this channel for her fashion ideas. Nothing against her, but she doesn't know how to alter things properly, and even if she tries to learn, it will take a while. She isn't saving any time either.

@Jaimehopee 5 лет назад

pro tip: my mom has always been tailoring my jean shorts and pants for me for as long as I can remember because it is so hard to find affordable jeans that fit both my tiny waist and bigger hips and thighs, so what she does is by bringing in the fabric on the waist underneath where the belt loops are on both of the sides, so they are hidden, and there is no baggy area like at the butt lol

@zairazaira_ 5 лет назад

i have the same problem thanks for the solution!

@pointeshoeperfect8268 5 лет назад

@sophiafantauzzo7175 4 года назад

I'm going to attempt to learn how to alter jeans for my butt to waist ratio. I'm tired of hunting for the perfect curvy fit jeans for my exact dimensions and then spending so much money for that fit! I'll wish us all luck. 😄

@bri5033 4 года назад

You could just wear tights... I think other countries call them yoga pants? Something like that. They're comfortable and look fine in black or white. The ones I'm talking about aren't actually the type of pants you'd wear for yoga, though- they're stretchy, yeah, but they're also really itchy when sweating from any kind of exercise.

@mayeighteen2812 4 года назад

@@sophiafantauzzo7175 Topshop jamie & joni are my go-to! I'm 5'1 with 24" waist and 38" hips and they fit me like a glove and doesn't get saggy like the ones from other brands!!! I always thrift mine from online marketplaces ✌😜

Koala Memes Yeah but the problem with having a flatter stomach like Ashley is whenever you eat absolutely anything (like literally anything) it shows which I think is what she means by ‘food baby’.

@hatorigirl1202 6 лет назад

Those jeans are midrise, and just sat a little closer to low because they were too big. Low rise would not have had that much room in the crotch to pull them up that high.

@jesshothersall 6 лет назад

Still a good idea though if we find some great jeans? When I bought a pair of too big but fabulous (only one available) silk/cotton trousers, I hitched them in/up by sewing the centre back seam. I wish I'd seen this video first, and put darts instead, will remember for next time as I think it works better this way.

@Katherine-dp2ol 5 лет назад

Yeah I expected her to take out the crotch and sew it lower down instead of just hiking them up

Oh my gosh - this is going to sound so weird but I'm kind of glad to see someone else with gross thumbs! I have anxiety and I basically like pick and bite/gnaw at my fingers and thumbs (yeah it's disgusting but I can't help it - I do it subconsciously) and my hands always look so manky and I find it really embarrassing because I've never met anyone else who does it apart from my dad. I'm glad you showed your gross thumbs, thank you 👍

@moobaa420 6 лет назад

Puddles thanks for the suggestion! I am not a fan of the smell of play doh but maybe that will further encourage not to put my fingers near my mouth 😂 I'll try and find something to keep my hands busy.
