Bonus Giggly Hotline: stirrups, shoes, and stress

0:00Guys, we're so excited to be answering your fashion questions today. It's my favorite thing to do. And we're doing it with Depop, the home of circular fashion. I'm literally scrolling right now. Some influencers have been on it. I saw that. You get to make money off the stuff that you don't wear. And when it's really stylish, you can have another girl work it and style it in her own way. And I love how based on what I click on, they kind of decide what I might like. Yeah, gives you like suggestions of other things. Yeah, it's a lot of colored shirts, blazers and polos for me right now. Ooh, that's cute.

0:32and depop is where taste recognizes taste we're actually both wearing pieces from depop right now your deconstructed skirt and then this is like a little blazer what skirt oh your deconstructed shirt sorry i was like wait am i wearing a skirt and then i'm wearing this little like blazer dress that has like buttons on the side but i made it more like blazer than dress you love a button i do yeah well they're secure you can rely on them much more than they're not gonna lie to you Yeah. They're not going to go through your phone. They do what they say they will. Yep. And based on your outfit, it's perfect because we are doing some work wear questions and even some menswear questions.

1:11Well, one of my favorite things about fashion is being like a little bit more masculine dressing. Yes. Like I like an oversized blazer with like an oversized pant about. I love when you dress oversized. We like to play with the masculine and feminine. Yes. Also, I'm wearing like a Packers t-shirt that was like deconstructed. I don't know. That's what they say about food. You love anything deconstructed. I love anything deconstructed. But like. A cheeseburger, a t-shirt. Either or. I'm so excited. I love getting the fashion takes. The Gigglers are fashionable. Yeah. And there's a spectrum. Yep.

1:45And they always have an interesting problem that goes along with said fashion question. It gets a little dicey here. It gets specific. With that said. Let's get into it. Hi, Hannah. Hi, Paige. Long time listener. First time caller. so I know we're seeing a lot of like tailoring and suiting on the runways right now and I'm very much into this like menswear as womenswear trend but how are the fashion girlies hopping on this are we doing blazers are we doing I mean obviously Hannah's a trailblazer with the ties but I feel like I'm so close but I don't really know how to make it a fit you know what I'm saying so I appreciate your help.

2:28I did ties first. I just want to point that out. She's steaming from her ears right now. I did ties first. Okay. It was a Valentino tie. I wore it with a Valentino skirt, BravoCon, two years ago. Lock it. It's only been two years. It feels like a decade ago. I wish. Can I say something about what she said though? Yeah. Her worry is so valid because there's something about a blazer that makes me scared I'm going to look like a millennial going out. do you remember when we'd go out just wearing blazers like a fitted blazer yeah like to the club like i just don't ever want to look like a karen or like a mom like i get what you're saying so how do i make a blazer chic okay well i think what she's referring to on like the runway with workwear it was very ysl is like the brand that does suiting the best and they typically do match like an oversized blazer with a matching pan.

3:23I think oversized blazers are, I don't find them to be millennial at all, but I am a millennial. But you have to go oversized. Yeah, you're going oversized. You just have to make sure the fit is what you like. So like, yes, there are girls that are wearing super oversized pants, but you could also do like a more fitted pant. You can also do like a cigarette pant that's like kind of like a capri. I actually have a pair of leather capris that I'm like really loving and I wore it with an oversized blazer. the other night to dinner with what shoe I did a kitten heel I was actually gonna call the police I'm like where's Paige I do have to say one thing about these fashion call ins which is cool is that me and you also have different body types I'm bottom heavy you're just not heavy so I like to show my waist cause I can look very squarish yep so i like to add a belt to an oversized blazer yeah but remember belts like five years were like not good like five years ago if you wore a belt it was like choogy yeah where now belts are so in well i think you can do a belt on the pant which that will like since show that you're the difference between your waist and your like your top and your bottom but like ysl was doing it very literally like they were doing white button-ups with belts and like actual just like suiting you can also do like pencil skirts yes pencil skirts and like a oversized blazer and then like long leather gloves are really in yes so that's like a way to make it let's bring in like when you have a blazer putting a sweater over it actually that's a good idea over your shoulders yes if you want to go full preppy generational wealth but wearing you know a button up all the way to the top with a with a tie like i think like go full into it don't be afraid to go full 100 % business yeah and then do your hair in like a sexy way yeah like a Pamela updo or a tussled messy wave tussled tussled I think the word you were looking for but yes Grace next question ladies I'm grabbing dinner with two of my girlfriends and constantly I feel like they're looking chic, interesting, variety.

5:42And I am constantly wearing pants and a cable knit sweater, pants and a cable knit sweater, pants and a cable knit sweater. What do you need the men in your life to be wearing to compliment your look, to elevate themselves and just bring the right vibe? Pants and a cable knit sweater. All I want is my man to wear pants and a cable knit sweater. He's perfect. But I'm like bopping to that. Pants and a cable knit sweater.

6:06Pants am I a big fan of that men wear vulnerability listening their listening ears um I think men should wear more bombers wait that's so crazy because I was about to say I don't want them in bombers I feel like bombers are too try hard well because here's the thing when I think of like what's my ideal man wearing jeans and a t-shirt yeah gay men can wear bombers because I know it's their choice when a straight man does it it's like someone cooked here okay here's one thing i want to tell him so they're modernizing they're redoing the rugby so like you're gonna you're seeing like a lot of collared shirts that have like four buttons you're buttoning all those buttons up and it's like a sweater you're tucking it in that's like a different play on a sweater yeah um so like horizontal stripes are really big like a traditional rugby but you can also do like a cashmere rugby what about a cardigan love a cardigan i could see him in a card just like a t-shirt and an oversized card yes and then like a fun jacket and a scarf and it's like boom boom boom layer layer let's have fun with scarves i like when men wear scarves especially gay men um i hate when a straight man does a scarf yeah yeah i'm like you're probably gonna strangle someone you don't need a weapon you don't need a weapon sir have a cold neck unless you're blindfolding me then i'm into it i don't want to see you okay so i'm i'm i think he'll be okay what about a leather jacket i'm just i'm weary of a leather jacket on a man are you weary of a leather jacket because you're afraid they'll just go full danny zucco i think a leather jacket holds too much power for a man it's like unless you're in a full biker gang which is on its own problematic Or you live in France.

8:00It's not real. It's not real. All right. Stirrup leggings. Are they chic or giving horse girl? I bought a pair and wore them with heels and a long sweater. What's the chicest way to style them, if at all? What's a stirrup legging? I'm obsessed. One, that Chris read it. Two, that you're so like unbeknownst to me what a stirrup legging is. I love it. a stirrup legging is when it has like the foot thing that goes around your foot let me show you a picture of it oh so it doesn't go around your toes no like you wear it with like a ballet flat yeah or that's like an 80s aerobics thing yeah okay yes okay okay I personally would wear it with a ballet flat or with a um would I do a full pump with it a pump might be like 280s I would say like a kitten heel the molecules in your brain are working so hard they're working overtime because I'm like there is a world where there is a pump that you could use yeah yeah well the good news is with a lot of this trendy stuff I love to find them on Depop because you get them at an affordable price also this trendy stuff that people bought then decided I'm not into this trend yes and you'll find it there so I like to buy stuff on Depop that's trendy okay that's actually so perfect because it's like yeah stirrups were trendy at some point they've come back they're recycling which means they're they are gonna go out so you don't have to spend a lot of money on them and Depop is perfect for a stirrup and also Depop is perfect for an oversized sweater like she said she styled it with I think that's how I would also style it what colors would you get I would do all black See, because I'm afraid if I did like a green, I would look like Peter Pan.

9:46Yeah, I think it's something that like you're doing. It's a legging. You're treating it as a legging. So if you're wearing black and you wear black leggings, you do like a different colored sweater if you want or all black. I'd either do an oversized sweater or I would do like a like a waistline like black bomber or like a waistline jacket. Sorry, I'm just crying because I envisioned you running in with stirrups going, are these the audition?

10:15I love stirrup leggings. Can you say it? I'm sorry, is this the audition for Pippin? Does Pippin wear red stirrups? I don't even know what that musical was. All I'm capable of right now. Also, one of my favorite things about Depop is like, it's winter. So, you know, there's like a couple of things that you're like, wow, I need all new sweaters. I need all new like jackets. depop has such a good selection of sweaters because i feel like that's that one thing that you're like i wore this sweater all last year i can't wear it again this winter like i gotta get rid of it sell it on depop sell it on depop you always need new turtlenecks each season so go crazy i love a gay man in a turtleneck i don't like a straight man in a turtleneck and i will not be explaining further and that is what she's running on there's also no seller fees.

11:07I've tried to sell stuff in the past where I'm like, did I lose money from this interaction? I love that Depop has no seller fees. They make it so easy and the app is so curated for people to find your stuff. Hey Paige. Hey Hannah. It's MC. I noticed a lot of peep toe shoes shown on the runway at fashion week. I was wondering if y 'all think they're coming back. Are we wearing our dogs out to the office? I'm worried. I'm concerned. I feel sick. Please let me know. I mean, I love her voice. Peep toes are so back and I'm so here for it. Can you define peep toe for me? So. Because she lost me. When, okay, you know, when you put your foot into a pump and you don't see your toes because it's either, it's like a pointy toe.

11:51Yeah. Peep toe, it has like that little hole where you can see like the first. Like right where my toes are becoming like numb. Yes. Like the first two toes you can see them. They're back, well, back to like our stirrup leggings. You could wear them with those. I personally think they're more of a summer shoe yeah like I think you're gonna see it more like I started wearing them at the end of this summer I think you're gonna see them more like spring into summer but yes peep toes are back I'd like a peep toe because sometimes I don't like all my toes showing yes yeah like you're like oh cover up sorry I'm a little bit of a prude like let's start slow with a little peep toe um I like that but her question is are you wearing them to the office I don't know what your office vibe is Because I would advise maybe no.

12:38Because unless like in the summer, if you go to your office and you wear like open toe shoes, then okay. It's just like, I don't know. I don't know. Yeah, I think. I think if you're wearing like a flare pant, you can wear them. But maybe it's not like the whole main show. Oh, my God. Quick story. There was a girl in a good flare pant in Soho. And I walked by her. There's nothing more than a girl in a good flare pant. No, it looked so. Because it was like a statement. and she was standing there like taking a picture of herself and I was like okay like she clearly likes her outfit and I just decided to be like so thoughtful and nice and give her a compliment and I said I said I love your pants and she just looked at me and said thanks and I was like well I'm never complimenting anyone again yeah that's sad if a girl and this is the thing yeah she said thanks but if a girl doesn't look at me and say oh my god thank you that's the nicest thing you ever said where do you want like then now I'm like I'm gonna fight with this girl I'm like I I actually take it back.

13:32I actually take it back. But anyway, there are good flare pants on Depop that I'm probably going to get. Thank you, Depop, for making this hotline bonus episode possible. We love giving the Gigglers advice. Depop is the home of circular fashion. Where taste recognizes taste.
