Love watching your videos. For the (skant-which is a skirt/pant) you can add a 2-3" slit on either outseam of skirt to allow for movement, great item

Totally agree... and with some heels you won’t notice it.

@whatwedeserve 2 года назад

Many cleaners have a tailor. Have them open the seams on either side of the skirt, add a triangle of fabric close to the color or a complimentary color. That will allow the skirt to hang properly over the pants. I love the concept of this pant/skirt combo. Would be worth seeing the outcome.

@gemqueen1866 2 года назад

great idea, I was thinking to open the side-seam on the skirt. I don't know what H&M were thinking to be honest!

@sewfax3292 2 года назад

Same page! If the pant goes all the way up the slits could be left open and sewn for a finished look👍🏾

@FayeDe_Lanty 2 года назад

Great minds! I was thinking to slice the skirt up both sides too but leave it like that...either allowing it fray or finish it off with a seam...I think the openness could add nice movement and flow...what do you think?

@pamelahowell2082 2 года назад

Maybe add panels to the sides

Exactly what I was about to say! You saved me typing it all. 😂

@judydening8128 2 года назад

Karen, I'm 60 and have been thrifting for 45 years! I would open up the seams on both sides of the skirt, creating side slits. The skirt would fit better over the trousers.

@ruthgibbins510 2 года назад

Love thrifted clothes! I buy secondhand from charity shops and refashion to look better- DONT get rid of the trouser/ skirt combo! Get some scissors and cut up close to the side seam from the front, right up to hip level or where you need more room. Then I would curve the front panel to round it off over the thigh. Either leave to fray or it could be bound by a dressmaker in a contrasting colour- orange or green! You could curve the back piece as well. I think it would look great!

@joje6984 2 года назад

Hi, Karen. When I shop preloved and vintage, I concentrate on coats and hand bags. You inspire me . Thanks.

@palidavera7495 2 года назад

For the skirt you can open the side and sew back only a half ( where your widest part at ) leave the hem outside rather than inside just to give a bit det. Hope you like the idea 😊

@imeldaramirez1703 2 года назад

That would work!!!

@MsMtz40 2 года назад

I was gonna say the same thing!! 😆 Yes just OPEN up the sides to the widest part of the hip. There are pants underneath so it won't matter. It would open up that area just enuf yet so flirty!! Then u have the "ILLUSION" of the skirt w the playful pants hiding everything underneath! Genius!!!

Always love your thrifting videos! I cannot resist vintage coats. I might have a problem 🥴 Tip for the Margiela: you could have an alterationist put a slip of matching (or not) fabric down each side of skirt to get that straight/flared look. Make them uniquely your own 💃🏾🤷🏾‍♀️❤😍

I've been shopping at ThredUP for over 4 years. I've redone my entire wardrobe with only clothes from them. They used to sell jewelry but stopped and they weren't trained to know what was worth a lot so I scored tremendously. I'm so pleased that Karen buys from them. Totally worth shopping there and easy returns too.

Karen thank you for speaking to sustainability...it's such an important style message that needs to get out there and as consumers we have the power to shift the way the industry works, simply by voting with our dollar for fashion that is kind to people and planet. Recycling, reusing and reimagining with brands such as ThredUp is a great choice. Like you thrifting is in my DNA and its a huge part of my life...in fact it's changed my life too. Thrifting has really reconnected me back to my closet, community, sublime story and helped me develop a unique personal style that is intrinsic to me...a total vibe right! x

@georgiapapadaki2209 2 года назад

Hi there Karen! As I’ve been watching you literally for years, I was really surprised by the fact that you are attending NY fashion week this year! To me that’s a sign of progress work wise, so congratulations and good luck! Your excellent sense of style and mix of high and low -which is what I subscribe to- is what differentiates you from the rest of the masses if you don’t mind my saying so. As for the Margiela skirt/pants, why don’t you try cutting it in the sides where the inside stitching is? It will definitely widen and given you the cut you want to. The best of luck with your next ventures!

@nanoukstore6432 2 года назад

Hi Karen, I think you can rock this skant and no need to make adjustments. It was designed like this and with your figure and styling it will look ingredable 👍

@J.gwenhwyfar 2 года назад

Hi Karen! It's been a while since I've been to Beacon's. Best place for handbags and accessories. I remember that coat and I'm still loving it! As for the trousers, they made the skirt way too small to fit over the fuller trouser. I think you can make it work with some alterations. For example, how about adding a strip of material on both sides of the skirt that would make it wider, with a more a-line flow?

@cerealoffender9530 2 года назад

@bsing101 2 года назад

Love the Black Blvck cap especially. Take a seam ripper to open one side of the skirt start from bottom going up parallel to the lowest part of the zipper. Try it on to see if you now like it. If you do, take it to a cleaners/seamstress for proper hemming as a side split.✨✨ You know I love that 🐫 coat. Thanks for taking us along. The music is so chill, hopefully you've got the name of it in your drop-down ✨

@RnR-Rebel 2 года назад

Hiya Karen! I immediately thought to ruche up the Margiela skirt/trouser combo so it looks more belt like; even ruche up one side, safety pin on inside or out, if you get a big one it’ll look like it’s part of the design. You could even use a funky broach! I like them, wouldn’t cut unless I was cutting, hemming the entire sides so it looks more like flaps, *maybe* leather inserts to make it into a looser more A-Line skirt. Just what popped in my head! Didn’t get that FAB patchwork shirt? Omg I want it😬! So weird how Greenpoint has changed, that’s where we had a house & I bloody hated it there but this was 21 ½ years ago when W’burg was just getting the “pioneers”. I actually prefer the old neighborhood even tho I hated it, it was one of those little unique neighborhoods which are quickly disappearing😞. Have a lovely weekend! Jet 🧡🎸🎶⚡️

@andreagascoigne6735 2 года назад

Hiya. Yes - I've had a similar idea to others below : a good seamstress might be able to put in a very tall, elongated triangle of fabric (thin end of triangle pointing upwards, obvs). So, it's a kind of panel, but it's tapered so that the lower half of the skirt will be wider (giving a straight- skirt look) ...and you'll also get more fabric to ease the tight hipline.... Coz I think you could really rock that look if you fixed the skirt : the trousers are a brilliant shape .... Xxxx

@joycemorrow5840 2 года назад

Oh how I also hate when I don’t try on clothes and they don’t fit. feel so comfortable thrift shopping. When I have a need in my wardrobe for a piece I’ll go to the thrift stores first. Since last year I’ve been shopping the mens section. I too have found some great blazers. Thank you for all the inspiration .

@antoniaMBTS 2 года назад

Hi Karen, I enjoyed this video so much...we all love going shopping with you!! As for the Margiella pants/skirt situation...just like everyone else is saying because we are all thinking alike here, cut the side seams to the hip area..I would just have the open seams stitched so they look finished but leave it open, I think it'll look great like that! You can definitely rock that look!!

I actually think the silhouette of the Margiela trousers is more interesting the way it is. If it is a bit tight, you can get it altered, I agree with the other comments. The Silhouette reminds me of when you combine a long sweater that tightens at the bottom with a wide skirt.

@yanagasan 2 года назад

The Margiela pants are a heartbreaker, I immediately scrolled to the end when you mentioned them. I don't think I'd be able to give them up even if they didn't fit right. Maybe let out the skirt seams a couple inches on either side to loosen the hip but still get the same look??

@elmyra1984 2 года назад

For the pant/skirt perhaps you can take it to a tailor and have the skirt altered to a more A-line fit. Or alter the pant so it is not as baggy.
