The Endless Quest for Fashion Inspiration: A Journey Through Outfits and Accessories

Did you ever wonder why humans always feel the need to point out when things rhyme that is not important anyway? Maybe we're just wired to appreciate a good rhyme, but sometimes it's hard to ignore. Take pairing a turtleneck under your dress, for instance. I know we already discussed this at the beginning of our video, but something about pairing a standalone fancy dress with a turtleneck just really loves it. Almost feels wrong like they shouldn't go together because one is fancy and one is casual, but at the same time, it also feels so right. Next to you could take any jeans, nice top, and plain jacket with some heels, this is kind of a cheater's way to make a warm yet fancy outfit. In that, the outfit itself is like decently casual, but if you ever catch me in heels, you know I mean business or I guess I should say a fanciness because I'm going out somewhere.

Last year, pairing a turtleneck under your dress became a thing, and it's still going strong. It's not just limited to fancy dresses; you can pair it with other tops and jackets too. The key is to balance the look and make sure it doesn't feel like an awkward mishmash of styles. A see-through top paired with a bralette is automatically a little scandalous yet warm, and screams for a night out. This isn't the best example because mine is short-sleeved, but there are tons of long-sleeve versions of this outfit that you could do.

To fight the sea of black wear in winter, we can introduce some fun and colorful pants to our wardrobe. I've been loving colored cargo pants all year round, and winter is no exception. You can pair them with a sweatshirt, a t-shirt, a crop top, or jackets in all scenarios, and you look fun, colorful, bold, and hopefully warm too.

Dressing pants are another great way to break up our winter fashion. They're not the most colorful but are fun and versatile. Most importantly, they aren't jeans, which can be a bit dull at times. Pair them with some black and a denim jacket or go full monochrome for a nice yet everyday look.

For those of us who have only carried around their phone in our back pocket for years, carrying around a purse is a whole new world. Whether or not you actually need to put anything in your purse, it can still be worn as an accessory. I absolutely love this all-black look with these very almost neon pops of color in the purse and the t-shirts gives me very slithering day out vibes.

This outfit is literally the opposite; the little pig purse mixed with the pale green and buttoned-up shirt creates a really adorable book. Fun fact: I got this purse in 2008 as a birthday gift, and when I thought it was blue and white like you probably think it is right now, but I didn't realize until way later that the white is packaging.

Another way to use your purse as an accessory is by matching it with your top. Okay, pause for small story time; this is a Michael Kors purse which you know is a pretty nice purse and when I got it, I thought it was blue and white like you probably think it is right now but I didn't realize until way later that the white is packaging. The purse is just blue anyway, I kept the white packaging in so I can pretend like I'm not an idiot for not realizing that sooner because I like it way better with the white.

You could also use your Polaroid camera bag as a purse because why not? You have to be a hipster piece of trash like me to own a polaroid and a polaroid purse, but they're really cute. Finally, I don't really love this outfit, but we may be like one or two outfits shy of 50 so I'm just throwing this one in so we can add another outfit to our video. I promise there are more good ones coming.

For our final category, I don't know what the heck these outfits are alright; jumping into this outfit screams patterns stripes plus floral. You know why not? In all seriousness, I actually oddly like this outfit; it makes me feel like after two hours of scrolling, I've landed on the private school side of TicTok aka rich talk and I'm here for it.

Don't have a jacket or a blazer well then you probably don't own a robe either but if you did you could wear it undone as a jacket. Try pairing a summery crop button-up over a turtleneck so you can re-wear your summer crop button-ups all winter long, and lastly, in this literally 1195 word essay of a video yes I counted I somehow managed to film and edit a 14-minute video without realizing till this very moment that in a disappointing spiral of events I only filmed 49 outfits so all I'm left with is a bunch of unedited footage.

Despite the chaos that ensued, our journey through outfits and accessories has been an incredible one. We've discovered new ways to style old favorites, learned how to balance contrasting styles, and even found creative ways to use our purses as accessories. Who knows what's next? Maybe we'll start a trend or maybe we'll just keep on exploring the endless possibilities of fashion inspiration.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enso before we get into some of the cool and spunky winter outfits i have planned for this video i wanted to show you guys a little trick i learned from none other than tick tock on how to style outfits yes i'm 22 years old and getting fashion tips from tic tocs anyway let's talk the six to eight point rule basically when you're starting out you have zero points and each piece of clothing that you add adds one to two points depending on how bold it is like this floral dress is worth two points because it's bright it's patterned and it's acting as our bottom and our top because it's a dress then i'm adding tall socks and chunky sneakers for one point each this cute mickey sweatshirt for one point and some jewelry bringing us to our minimum goal of six points it's not a perfect rule but generally a good outfit like i said is between six and eight points if we wanted to hit the eight point maximum we could add a beanie or i'm not sure if hairstyles count but i feel like hairstyles are just kind of another way to accessorize and elevate your look so now we're at eight points with the beanie and hairstyle i honestly kind of liked the outfit better at six points so you can definitely play around with this model and what your goal points are going to be all right lightning round through a few more point examples we've got my non yeehaw overalls look the more wintry version of my non-yeehaw overalls look also as you can see this outfit is basically the same as the previous one but the dress is longer and i switch my docs out for white sneakers i did this to break up the heavy amount of black we've got going on the adult yet still very toddler turtleneck look the it's morphing time not to be confused with morphine time red jason lee monochromatic power ranger look wow that is a mouthful and lastly i don't have a name for this one but any bold essential piece to your outfit like this pullover raincoat that's pretty neon can really easily make any outfit a six because that one bold piece is gonna get you points layering is one of the most important words when talking winter fashion and we're starting off basic by talking a few different ways you can wear a simple black turtleneck i love pairing a turtleneck under dresses so you can wear any summery dress in winter especially if the dress already has some dark undertones like both of these it works a lot better transitioning it from a summer dress to winter and it works great with both flowy and form-fitting dresses another interesting way to layer with a black turtleneck is by layering one under a shirt with a plunging neckline i think this creates a really interesting neck area with the v-neck and high turtleneck mixed there is zero chance in southern heat that i could ever wear two long sleeves in texas so someone please wear this out about for me because i can never wear this now i know all the rage these days is layering with collars and that's exactly what we're doing here i paired this pink corduroy and mickey sweatshirt with a little pink collar popping out it really is the little details that count this is a similar concept and a slightly less cute version with a turtleneck instead of a collared shirt what's great about this is you can wear a short sleeve turtle or collared shirt for layering if you live in a warmer climate like myself so you don't have double long sleeves and my last layering tip is to make a super cropped sweater which the existence of in the first place makes no sense like when would you ever wear a heavy sweater that is the same length as your bra but anyway just add a cool lace tank under it so it turns into an only slightly cropped sweater lace combo now onto jackets the real actual practical winter staple first up i'm pairing this fun green jacket with what seems like a simple shirt and jeans but oh no what's that it ties in perfectly with a little green dragon on my shirt plus this green stitching matching little details like this creates a really subtle yet elevated look similarly this outfit just makes the matchy-matchy more apparent appearance with the switcheroo from jeans to a plaid skirt am i just making a boards at this point switcheroo is that real anyway we're now coming in hot with some subtle almost monochromatic looks matching your shirt and jacket almost to the t on shade i don't know if it looks great or just okay but it definitely makes it look you put some thought into your outfit for better or worse this puffer is one of my favorite jackets and it really illustrates that if you have a bold jacket you can really wear anything simple underneath and people will still think your jacket looks cool oh what's that you don't own a jacket well you're in luck try a blazer according to my pinterest feed blazers are all the new street fashion style these days you can dress one up with heels for more business meeting or night out look or dress them down with sneakers for some more street style vibes now you can't have a winter outfits video or any outfits video for that matter without a justin and britney denim on denim moments i found that the key is making sure your jeans and jacket are at least slightly different shades of blue and lastly you could just wear your jacket buttoned up as a dress or don't i i don't know but that takes us to dresses okay this is a much better version of my previous outfit grab a pop of color jacket and leave it unbuttoned over neutral dress for a simple yet fun look i also think the white crop tee under my dress helps add some extra layering and make this look a little more interesting now you absolutely can't go wrong with chunky boots and a simple dress i wear some form of this combo almost daily in texas winter because it's great for warmer clients clients it's great for warmer clients oh my god i did it again it's great for warmer climates but still feels wintery and really badass with the ladylike dress and chunky boots combo if you live in a colder climate try pairing the same look with a blazer to make it cold climate approved and i switched out my docks for white sneakers because we have a jacket it's obviously a winter outfit we don't have to have docks ducks are cute though but i really just wanted to go for a little bit of a different look with these sneakers tired of all the dresses in your closet try one from your boyfriend's closet or just the men's section of any store this is admittedly way too short for me so i'm gonna talk fast so we both don't get too uncomfortable but a giant hoodie or even a giant long sleeve can double as a cool dress assuming yours is a bit longer in length than mine so apparently the first official day of spring is march 20th which is crazy but you best believe i'll be swimming at a texas beach by late february so i'm gonna go ahead and prepare you for some great winter to spring transitionary outfits for those months where it's cold but not really starting off simple with a dress and jacket look was very spring yet still wintery about this look is you've got not one not two but three layers going on so it's warm but the yellow and the dress and the colorful socks make for a really springy colored outfit now this combo gives a whole new meaning to the word colorful but the floral maxi dress plus very colorful turtleneck makes for a really spring colored yet warm outfit similar to the previous one and it just really screams that february march time this is a similar concept but even warmer with a cropped tea on top yet your legarones are still covered on the bottom now cardigans are fantastic for an almost spring yet we're still stuck in winter look because they are long sleeve but pretty lightweight material you get warmth but not too much warmth you can also always wear a cardigan as a long sleeve shirt or unbuttoned for a different look you could also pair your cardigan with a skirt which creates an even warmer look because your legorones are exposed again also you can easily take off your cardigan and you've got a very warm look this to me is a great look for going out which brings us to what in the heck do you wear to a bar in winter or even a high school party if that's where you're at in life now i know it's corona and bars and parties are merely a distant fever dream but a girl can dream and plan for when this apocalypse is over a really simple one is pairing a dress with a similarly shaded jacket like our previous almost monochromatic look it's not the cutest ever but it definitely looks well put together did that rhyme i think he did also why do humans always feel the need to point out when things rhyme that is not important anyway a cuter but slightly less warm version is pairing a turtleneck under your dress i know we already did this at the beginning of the video but something about pairing a standalone fancy dress with a turtleneck i just really love it almost feels wrong like they shouldn't go together because one is fancy and one is casual but at the same time it also feels so right next you could take any jeans nice top and plain jacket with some heels this is kind

is short sleeved but there are tons of long sleeve versions of this outfit that you could do next we're going to fight the sea of black wear in winter with some fun and colorful pants if you saw my last video you know i've been loving colored cargo pants all year round with winter as no exception you could pair them with a sweatshirt a t-shirt a crop top and jackets in all scenarios you look fun colorful bold and hopefully you're warm too because it's winter alternatively dress pants are a great way to break up your winter fashion they're not the most colorful but they are fun and most importantly they aren't jeans pair them with some black and a denim jacket or go full monochrome for a nice yet everyday look now you may be like me and have only ever carried around your phone wall in your back pocket for the last five years but no fear whether or not you actually need to put anything in your purse you can still wear one purely as an accessory i absolutely love this all black look with these very almost neon pops of color in the purse and the t-shirts gives me very slithering day out and hogsmeade vibes this outfit is literally the opposite the little pig purse mixed with the pale green and buttoned-up shirt creates a really adorable book i also fun fact literally got this purse in 2008 as a birthday gift another outfit featuring an authentic 2008 purse is this colorful look alternatively you could use your purse to be super matchy matchy with your top okay pause for small story time this is a michael kors purse which you know is a pretty nice purse and when i got it i thought it was blue and white like you probably think it is right now but i didn't realize until way later when i went to actually use it that drumroll the white is packaging it's it's packaging the purse is just blue anyway i kept the white packaging in so i can pretend like i'm not an idiot for not realizing that sooner because i like it way better with the white and the blue okay moving on before this gets really embarrassing you could also use your polaroid camera bag as a purse because why not you have to be a hipster piece of trash like me to own a polaroid and a polaroid purse but they're really cute and lastly i don't really love this outfit but as you'll realize at the end of the video we may be like one or two outfits shy of 50 so i'm just throwing this one in so

series of what the heck are these outfits try pairing a summery crop button up over a turtleneck so you can re-wear your summer crop button-ups all winter long and lastly in this literally 1195 word essay of a video yes i counted i somehow managed to film and edit a 14 minute video without realizing till this very moment that in a disappointing spiral of events i only filmed 49 outfits so all i'd like to say is thanks for making it this far if all else fails a simple jeans long sleeve and beanie will also do for this winter season psych we've got a 50th outfit double psych we don't okay bye i feel like i made it more disappointing with that double psych anyway see yaso before we get into some of the cool and spunky winter outfits i have planned for this video i wanted to show you guys a
