was in like seventh eighth grade, because seventies vibes were
real big, like, and so I had a lot of
like the kind of like peasant tops that were like
certain patterns.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
And the what. Yeah, I don't know if I've know
this term peasant tops. Is it like the blousey?

fugliest patterns like Paisley's and like the ugly seventies.

Yeah, I wish either them back in the day they
were these m.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yeah, I mean shit like that.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
But the new modern ones have like the seam under
the boobs, and I'm like, I can't wear them.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
You know what, maybe when I we share this episode
in our social media stories, maybe I should put up
pictures of me in some of my Y two K fashion.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Yeah, and then let me pull out stuff I used
to wear. Okay, but I used to get yelled to.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
It's fine, how old were but you were tiny? You
were a baby in five Yeah, I was eight.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Okay, so your Kira's age so not really that tiny.

I remember you showing me a video of her and
You're like, look at how much taller she is.
Speaker 2 (03:57):

I'm genuinely real excited to do this Y two K episode.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
I bet you are.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
I'm coming back to my roots.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
But yeah, today we're diving into a nostalgic yet modern
trend that's sweeping the bridal world. Resurgent of Y two
K fashion. Yeah, so iconic styles that from the late
nineties and early two thousands are making a glamorous comeback
in today's weddings.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
From slip dresses to butterfly motifs, the white two k
era is influencing bridal fashion in unexpected and delightful ways.
So grab your butterfly clips and let's explore how you
can incorporate these trends into your big day. You know
how many butterfly clips I've bought for my daughters and
I was just like, we them, No, it's fine. They
wanted them, but they haven't really played with them. But also,
(04:51):
my girls have very thick hair like me, that we
break them easy. But I was just like, do you
want me to show you how Mammy used to do
her hair? And they're like, no, it's fine. The twist
legit corn rows. I'm like doing fucking corn rows. My
eighth grade picture is the worst thing on the planet.
And I had braces, I had corn rows, and I
had tried the sponge curlers, and my hair always goes
(05:16):
in curls with sponge curlers, so when I took it out,
I had a goddamn afro, which is why I put
corn rows in.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
But like, I'm a.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Pasty assue girl with braces. It is the worst picture
on the entire planet. I love that.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
And my girls are like, yeah, you don't need to
show us how you styled your hair with these, mom.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Ouch, Okay, can't blame them, can't wait to watch their style.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Come back.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Let me help you with your zigzag part.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I have a corn rows.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
On the top of your head, and those bobby pins
will give you the worst headache of your life. But
then we're gonna put a clip over to disguise, and
then we're gonna put a ton of glitter in your
scout because why not wait, and then we're gonna flip
your ends out.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Does this mean in the next five to ten years
we're getting bumpets back?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Uh? Probably?
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Oh dear, it's vintage. I was never able to get
those to work. Oh me either, but.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
My hair was too clean for them.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Also, I just have too much hair that I just
ratted the shit out of my hair and called it today. Yeah,
because you know, you know how many combs I broke
grouting my hair.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
I love that for you.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
So many, like literally right in half and it'd be
stuck in I.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Used to it brushes stuck in my hair. Yeah, not combs. Brushes. Yeah,
and I used to come upstairs crying. My Mom's like,
you need to not brush your hair like that, and
then would like rip my hair out that we have trauma.
I now have a hard head because of my mom
and sister. Yeah. Yeah, I could take a beating from
(06:58):
my four year old nephew. You can pull on my
hair and I'm not even filling it. All Right, we
digressed too much?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Are you ready? Yeah, to start talking about trend number one.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Slip dresses and minimalist silhouettes. One of the hallmark styles
of the y to K era was the sleek and
simple slip dress. Think of the effortless elegance that icons
like Kate Moss and Carolyn Bessett Kennedy showcased.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
My gosh, it's like this was written by me. I
was like, Carolyn Bessett Kennedy is the most iconic slip
dress wedding dress girl ever.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I have no idea who she is in the way
that I just pronounced that name. I'm glad I said
it right.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
She married, She married JFK. Junior.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
You know who died in a plane crash? No Jesus
Christ girl. Oh okay, I think I've seen her.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Megan Markle had said in an interview prior to marrying
Prince Henry Prince Henry.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Harry Prince, I said that was so much Henry the
third Prince, Harry, you went in full blazy. The confidence
that was behind that, you have no right. I know,
I can't believe myself.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Oh I promisely know his name Harry. Anyways, she had
mentioned in an interview it was after because I didn't
I haven't watched suits all the way through, but in there,
her character, I guess gets married, and so it was
after that episode. So there were right before something started
talking wedding dresses with her, and so they're like, you know,
the dress you wear in the show, is that kind
of like the style you would wear someday? And she's like, no,
I'm a lot more like Carolyn Besset Kennedy, Like I
(08:41):
would wear something like her. Okay, So when I was
taking bets with friends at fashion school, I was like,
she's gonna wear something minimal with no detail, and at
some point it's gonna be a sleek, fitted dress. And
everyone was like, nah, she's marrying a Prince of England,
She's gotta wear something frivolous, and I was like, no,
I don't. No, she's not meant to be queen. She
can't like overshadow, Kate.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
I mean, listen, if I was going into the royal family,
I would overshadow.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
You like watch this, Yeah, just you know, stir the
pot there, cass.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
But she did going into that family. Anyways, that's true,
so do it anyways, just.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Piss on the fellow.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Yeah, are you still looking?
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Are you looking up?
Speaker 1 (09:25):
The dress? Her slip dress is cute with that cow neck.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
It is an iconic and the one of him kissing
her hand right there, yeah, that is like the iconic photo.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
I've never seen it.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
That's why I I've seen. I feel like i've seen
her face before, but I've never seen the photos. So
that's why I'm like, I don't Yeah, I've never.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
Seen so Anyways, it's an iconic style, and Okay, I
hope we have more of that because I love that.
So these dresses are characterized by their minimalist design, often
made of satin or silk, offering a timeless and chic look.
Modern brides are embracing the style for its under stated
beauty and versatility.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
It's perfect for those who want that classic look with
a touch of nostalgia. Plus, slip dresses are incredibly comfortable
and can be dressed up or dressed down with accessories.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
Yes, and we're very fortunate Amy Mayor that we carry
has the most beautiful silk slip dresses. We have two
pretty we got to in store yep. So if that
is an aesthetic you are going for, We've got to.
You can come try them on. They feel like butter.
They are just going to highlight your natural shape. They're
not going to overly accentuate in any way. So comfy,
(10:33):
super comfy that if you want to look chic, but
really comfort is the number one for you.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
This is the best way to do it. Absolutely, And
you can always do an overlay or you can she
customizes anything.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
So yeah, you can do a.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Really cool, badass like bridal cape.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
If you have on the overlay.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
You could do the dramatic fils like you know we
mentioned in our New York Bridal Fashion Week one.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
You can do the puff sleeves like they're we're talking about.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
We could do all sorts of fun things to slip dress.
But it's a good versatile one that you could wear.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Again absolutely cute sound dress because it's got some richy,
creamy ivory love.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
All right, guys.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
So trend number two is two piece ensembles, which Cass
is probably so happy for. Another why two kne spire
trend making waves is the two piece bridle ensemble. This
includes crop tops paired with skirts or pants, offering a
modern twist on a traditional wedding attire.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
It is so great for a way to showcase personal
style and adds playful element to the bridal look. Plus,
separates can often be worn again, making them a sustainable choice.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Designers are getting creative with this trend, incorporating various fabrics
and embellishments to cater to different tastes, which is really
fun because you could do an embroidered top with a
simple bottom. You could do a simple topp with an
on bottom fun bottom. You could do like sequins bedazzled stuff.
You could keep it all sleek, you know. I'm thinking
(12:02):
of like Jacquard fabrics could be super cool for.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
A top, which is a huge Another thing coming in
that is very y two k m hm.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Honestly, hear me out. I'm excited to see if like vests,
you know, how many.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Vests I wore.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Don't you dare give me a really good fucking vest again,
Don't you dare?
Speaker 2 (12:26):
My husband fell in love with me. Few pieces?
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Bring in a vest. No. When I was first hired
here the way that I was mocked for my two pieces,
and then they started to come in and I said, yes, the.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
Only thing I'm thinking is of that damn boho picture
from Pinterest or the girls in a two piece and
it's like an inch thick like waistband that looks like
a ridmond with a tool skirt, and then.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
It's the lace top.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
She's got like a bandoo bra on with like a
little lace thing and you say, the little scallop with
the eyelash fringe on her tummy and it's long sleeve.
I have seen that picture too many times in my
life to count, and I am just like, let me
tell you right now, you got any type of shape
to the top half of you. Yeah, those two those
two pieces are fighting fighting each other. They're not gonna
(13:19):
stay in place.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
Was it not pinned to it? I mean, I don't
know the done there or hell was made.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
And it might have just been something someone made at home,
but like and not that that picture was used as
inspiration for my sister in law's dress for Kirsten's black dress.
I did not totally was not no, but she liked
the long sleeve lace with a toll bottom. But I
had told her I was like the silky corset that
we're wearing because Homegirl had some boobs that like we
(13:49):
had to hold up the boobies, so like a band
doo thing, not.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Ideal if you got boobs.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
But because of how silky it was, the lace just
would move up and down, so I had to tack
it to it. I had to put it together as
like a singular right, But like that look is really
hard if you do have to have too much of
a like bust, and you've got to have the right
(14:15):
type of like darts on the side of bus to
like taper it in so it's not too baggy.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Logistically it's a thing.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
You just have to have the the quote unquote ideal
body tap to make I feel like certain two pieces work.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Well, there's other two pieces I've been seeing that like
what I think who had one? Tara Latour Latour has
one that just came out, Oh did she? It was
an ad I have seen super cute, and I think
(14:51):
it's gray pretty loved, and Barbara has one that I love.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Barbara.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Barbara does a good job with two pieces. I will
give her that that. I'm like with a lot of
these custom designers, you just get. What's nice about that
is the top can be a different size and the
skirt can.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Be different, Yes, which is good now, like it's not
fast fashion, yeah, that we're looking at his side. Note
if you heard us complaining in our previous episode we recorded,
we were complaining about tariffs because that's going to change
the whole dynamic of things. But too, Like conceptually, two
pieces I think is cool because it is there's versatility.
(15:32):
It just needs to be done better than what we
had done in the early hy two K.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Which I think Kim Kasos kind of started. Yeah, yeah,
the trend of doing it differently, Yeah, and in a
very cature way, which was really nice.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
So, and I think that's how I would prefer a
two piece, is that if it was a dramatic courset
to like really give me a ship so that I
felt like and then you know, changing out my skirts,
having the long skirt for ceremony, changing to like a
short skirt, having a nice pair of pants that I
could wear with it for like send off, send off,
(16:13):
welcome dinner time. So I'm not showing anything.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Okay, the hell is looking down there when you're eating dinner.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
But I'm just saying if it's got a good leg
slit Knowing me, if I was intoxicated all of my bit,
I would just bump in a chair, not greatly.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Don't we have a designer that was also doing body suits?
Who was that? Was it? In Nara?
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Anara had bodysuits that we saw on their side.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
It was also cool and different.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Yeah, as like a modesty thing that if you weren'
under a strapless dress or whatever, like it almost looked like.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
A leotard kind of stuff. That was interesting. It was
really cool. But yeah, yeah, fun stuff, really fun. So
now we go to trend three where we're getting butterfly
motifs and whimsical details. I just hear Maria Harry singing
when I think of butterflies. I love that.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
Also, I loved butterflies when I was younger, fucking loved butterflies,
like an actual butterfly, all the things like I wanted
all the cutesy shit covered in butterflies. I wanted butterflies.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
I was over here thinking like an actual, like live insect. Well, yeah, no,
I love those too, because I mean, growing up, I
remember those commercials where you could order them. Yeah, oh
hell yeah I wanted those.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Did I get them?
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Nope?
Speaker 1 (17:30):
No I didn't either.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
It's fine, really wanted them.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
But I definitely am a butterfly person.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
But guess what, I'm.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
A millennial that does not have a butterfly tattoo.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
I'm so proud of you, thank you do. I have
roses absolutely and the moon and a moon, but I
don't know. I guess I don't know that's classified as millennial.
I'm just a weird witchy ladies. Wasn't there something we
had seen about if they're a taurus with a rose
moon tattoo rest like a nose ring, and I was like, wow,
oddly specific?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Ah, so good?
Speaker 3 (18:05):
All right, castle'll explain our cute butterfly motif and whimsy details.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
So who could forget the butterfly craze of the early
two thousands. This whimsical motif is fluttering back into bridal fashion,
appearing in embroidery, accessories and even veils.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
It's a symbol of transformation and new beginnings, making it
a fitting choice for weddings. Incorporating butterfly details can add
a touch of magic and nostalgia to your ensemble, whether.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
It's a subtle butterfly hairpin or a bold embroidered bodice.
This trend allows brides to infuse their look with their
personality and charm. I am so here for this.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Like I had these like really dramatic butterfly clips. Yeah,
and you had to like pinch the side to like
open the claw clip to get it in. But it
was like like it was so big and so three
D that like it would like move and they were
and then the edges of them were glitter covered, so
I had like blues and greens and pinks and purples,
(19:01):
and that's I don't remember. I think my mom got
them out like some house party something because there was
all those MLM parties too.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
But it was like, I love those things, but.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
Like they were obnoxious because you'd walk and you could
fill them like yeah moving because they were like on
springs almost.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
That's what I think. We had a bride who wanted
to do some custom butterfly pins in her and her
bridesmaid's hairs as well as is it Madeline White on
TikTok the influencer that.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
You would know influencers better than me.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Well, she had the butterfly shoes that as you walked,
they would move. They were very glittery. Oh h of
a kind, the one that's what the DJDJ?
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Yeah, okay, I forget that's her name.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
I think it's Madeline White girl. I don't know her name, right.
I can hear her voice in my head though, and
all of her videos you can see.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
That's fair.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
But yeah, that's fair.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
So trend number four is bold colors and iridescent fabrics,
moving away from traditional white. Some brides are embracing bold
colors and iridescent fabrics reminiscent of White two K's adventurous
fashion scene.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Absolutely think of Hugh's like icy blue, you did it,
you did it this time cast Ye, think of Hughes
like icy blues, metallics, and even vibrant pinks. These choices
make a statement and reflect a bride's unique personality.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
It's all about breaking the mold and choosing a dress
that truly represents you. Plus, these colors look stunning in photos.
We'll see I mean icy blue.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
I don't know how that's gonna I mean for us,
it's just not our undertone.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
But yeah, I will say like blue and pink. Why
it was like gender revealed party vibe. I went to
one of those, like I think it was a Yankee
candle party or Salt City or whatever.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
It was one of those candle parties because my mom
had a friend who sold them. Yeah, and I begged
my mom to let me get candles. Granted, wasn't allowed
to burn sid of candles, but I was probably Shanna's age.
I was like eleven when I went to this, and
I was just like, these are the coolest candles. And
it was like a two pack, and I was like,
please let me get I'm like single wick little ones.
One was blue and one was pink, and they were
(21:16):
baby powder scented.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Oh I'm spriad.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
This wasn't like sensy SENSEI wasn't a thing yet back then.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
I'll tell you what.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
I loved the smell of that candle. As a child,
I would take those lids off and I would just
sit there and just inhill deeply. But yeah, one was
blue and one was pink, but they were called baby powder.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Did it smell like baby powder?
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Thousand percent? It did, but it had also a little
bit of a florally undercent. All the things that I
hate now in the Son of a Candle was in
that candle.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Love that yep.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
So blue and pink.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Were just huge, like I know, it was like very bubblegum,
like very like I'm a little baby because it's cute.
Because like in the nineties, why the fuck everyone thought
it was cool to stuck on binkies when you were
like older.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
I mean, I know why they do it at raves.
Why do they do it at raves? For the people
who are rolling on certain types of drugs. They do
it so they're not chewing on their tongues and cheeks.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
That's probably where it came from, because you could get
the light up ones too to wear out and take
them to like classic skating.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Yeah that's wild. Yeah. I didn't learn that until like
when I started to go to festivals and people were like, yeah,
they're doing it, so they're not like so some people
will have gum or the binkies so they're not chewing
on their tongues or cheeks because it's like their endorphins
are so in heightened that anything feels good. That's absolutely
terrifying to me. Yeah wow.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
So anyways, yeah, blue and pink were huge iridescent. I
just think all the space everyone was like thinking futuristic,
you know, and so metallics were just everywhere.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
It's fun.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
One of my favorite outfits from limited to was it
had like the metallic threading in it, and it was
like a turtleneck with like a half sleeved in my
elbow and it was like a sweater. Yeah, but it
was like purple with the like iridescent.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Thread in it.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
And then it had a matching pair of plaid pants
that had the same aridescent in it. That's what I
wore in my seventh grade photo and I felt so
cool and I got my Bobby Brown eyeshadow that was
an aridescent purple to match.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
I've seen everybody lately wear these plaid short from early
two thousands, and I will never get on that trend.
They look awful.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Yeah, they weren't even cute then, No, but mine were
bell bottom pants, so it wasn't shorts.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Some short some pants that I've been seeing people wear
are massive wide legs. Well, yeah, they're wearing the old
Jinko jeans that I'm like, who's thinking they look cool?
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Skaters were those and then they had the deep pockets
to put all their shit in.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Yeah. Like, I was at McDonald's the other day and
this man came out with.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
The widest legs I've ever seen and like bright orange hair,
and I was like, the thought that ran through my
head of what SLC punk moving my car towards him
and cass.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
We do not take people out. Sometimes fashion police need
to be a rol thing. Uh did you see the
thing I sent you though?
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Real quick? Another tangent.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
No, Stacy and Clinton are coming back with a fashion
show and it's gonna be on Amazon Prime the end.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Of this month.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
They're not dead yet. No, they're not dead yet. Old
are they eighties?
Speaker 3 (24:47):
They're like in their fifties joking, But they're doing a
whole show again.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
I love it's called where whatever the f you want? Oh,
but back then you could not, God forbid if you
wanted to wear what you wanted. Back then, people they
would straight to your face tell you you're wrong.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
You look ugly as hell. Yes, not anymore.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
No, No, they don't get to be a hypocrite.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
I'm here for it, okay, all right? Tangent over Trend
Number five is statement accessories.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Y two K fashion was all about the accessories. Think chokers,
platform shoes, and mini bags. These statement pieces are finding
their way into bridle fashion, adding a playful and edgy vibe.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Incorporating these accessories can elevate a simple dress and make
it uniquely yours. It's a fun way to nod to
the past while keeping your look contemporary.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Just remember balance is key. Choose one or two statement
pieces to avoid overwhelming your ensemble.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
When are bridal belts gonna be a thing and we're
gonna throw those belts over our dresses?
Speaker 1 (25:55):
What are you talking? Like the belts that we have,
or like an actual belt.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
Like an act shoal belt, like you know, the big
wide belts that like serve no purpose. But we put
them on top of everything. And we'd wear the dresses
with the jeans underneath, and then you'd wear the pointed
shoe and you'd barely see the point of the shoe
because it's probably coming.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
It's probably coming. I mean I saw a lady walking
on campus the other day in a bedazzled belt, So
it's probably coming.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Yeah, I'm just thinking like big old medallion and there's
like the piece that goes around and then the other
one kind of like hangles hangs down, and it's probably
gonna be metallicky and have a bunch of beating on
its downy.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Mark my words, we're gonna see that before we know it.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Would I allow you to bring it in?
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Probably not, just because I don't think anyone here would
buy it? No, But do I want to.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Just be like eff and knew it? Hell? Yeah, absolutely,
I love that.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
That's so funny.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
But I mean we've been seeing little bits of chokers,
mainly scarves, yeah, because we had the.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Scarves to match every goddamn sweat. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
All my striped sweaters came with a matching striped scarf.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
The Infinity scarves.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Yeah, that was a little bit later.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Yeah, and that was like my your junior high years, right, Yeah,
that's when I was going out club.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
And yeah, we were wearing those. We do have one
dress that has a choker we do rather than a scarf,
which is super cute, and it's super cute. I love
a good choker. I don't think I've ever really worn one.
Oh really, Yeah, even grown up chokers are my favorite.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Like I'd constantly buy the like uncomfortable plastic ones in
the vending.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Machine, the weird like windy ones.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
I had those, and like all sorts of colors, and
then I had like little velvet ones that would have
something dangling from it, like a pearl or like an
obnoxious fake crystal.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
I don't I think most of my life, I think
I really fought against trends so you won't find me
and stuff like that. Oh, I very much wanted all
of it, the infinity scarves. I think it was until
like middle school, high school that you might see some
trends I incorporated. But that's funny. Yeah, I don't think
I was ever a trendy person.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
I would usually wear my own things, but I definitely
bought the trendy stuff. Like in high school, I couldn't
afford apple bottom jeans, so I didn't.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
Have those, which guys are coming back, we want something
so bad they are.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Definitely had boots with fur and several that I bought
at Charlotte Rous's.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Yep, loved them, absolutely.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Love Rude twenty one, what seal all of those but
I definitely liked the trendy stuff.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Which I still fight trends. I do.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
I do now only because I guess I'm older and
I'm in that weird stage where there are still women
who are my age wearing shit teenagers wear, and I'm like,
we are twenty.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Years over this, this is bizarre.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
But then there are also people my age wearing shit
that like sixty something year olds are wearing.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Yeah, not a good in between.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
There's not anything.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
That's why I struggle because I'm like, what the hell
does someone my age wear? Right, which, obviously you can
wear whatever you want, and I think it's great if
you're a sixty five year old and you want to
wear like hot, tight teeny bopper outfits, absolutely go for
it because your confidence shines through.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Yeah. I just I don't know where to shop. There
is like no middle aged No I'm not even middle.
Well it's either too young or too old.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
Yeah, I feel the same way, and I'm just like,
I'm a normal aged human.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
Yeah I feel that. So man, my two K fashion
is exciting.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
Just because I'm curious how it's going to be done,
and I wonder if it's going to be done. Then
it's like, oh, I see the excuse me, I see
the inspiration. Yeah, but it's not embarrassing or am I
gonna be like that is absolutely embarrassing and you guys
are gonna feel really dumb in like five years.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Like the Alfred Angelo's.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Honestly, I'm waiting for those I know you are, those
color like the colored ribbon trend, because we've seen little
bits like very thin like Vera Wane did, like.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Little thin belts.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
We've got thibs, but but we haven't gotten into the colors.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
I'm waiting for it.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
I'm waiting for someone to send me a goddamn swatchbook
of like one hundred different colors and being like, which
one you want? If anyone's gonna do, what's gonna be?
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Essence?
Speaker 5 (30:19):
Maybe we'll see, But I do wonder that I don't
something grandy would do it probably probably, but I mean, yeah,
any of the mainstream.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Yeah, probably will.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
But that's what I'm waiting for, is for something like
that where it's like you can personalize it, like have
a customized dress, but like on the right whatever was
considered cheap when that comes out because prices be changing.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yeah for real?
Speaker 3 (30:48):
So all right, well, should we wrap up with our
final thoughts because we had too many tangents on this one.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Yes, because I got to run to the restroom. That's unfortunate.
I'm gonna pee my pants if I continue to sit here,
So that's unfortunate for you, all right, guess so?
Speaker 3 (31:03):

Speaker 2 (01:46):
Him and his stupid ass affliction shit.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
And his hairl is because I was talking about Ed
Hardy and then our this episode is about Y two K.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
And then Cassa's like, well the Ed already I lied
came out a little bit later than that, and I
was like, okay, but like Ed Hardy is like Bond,
Dutch and Affliction and all the shit. Yeah, And you know,
I really realized when trends have circulated and I see
my oldest dressing and shit that I wore not much
(02:21):
older than she is now, and I'm like, huh. And
I remember my mom saying that to me when I
was in like seventh eighth grade, because seventies vibes were
real big, like, and so I had a lot of
like the kind of like peasant tops that were like
certain patterns.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
And the what. Yeah, I don't know if I've know
this term peasant tops. Is it like the blousey?
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Yeah, they're kind of blousy, and they're usually like the
fugliest patterns like Paisley's and like the ugly seventies.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Oh, those the ones I can't wear because my boobs.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Yeah those Ah, I were a lot of those because
I had no boobs cast I could wear them.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Yeah, I wish either them back in the day they
were these m.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yeah, I mean shit like that.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
But the new modern ones have like the seam under
the boobs, and I'm like, I can't wear them.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
You know what, maybe when I we share this episode
in our social media stories, maybe I should put up
pictures of me in some of my Y two K fashion.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Yeah, and then let me pull out stuff I used
to wear. Okay, but I used to get yelled to.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
It's fine, how old were but you were tiny? You
were a baby in five Yeah, I was eight.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Okay, so your Kira's age so not really that tiny.
My eight year old is that she's a tiny old baby. Okay. Yeah,
I remember you showing me a video of her and
You're like, look at how much taller she is.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
That the rest of the kids.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Okay, just because she's my tiny baby's giant in height. Yeah,
I'm genuinely real excited to do this Y two K episode.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
I bet you are.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
I'm coming back to my roots.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
But yeah, today we're diving into a nostalgic yet modern
trend that's sweeping the bridal world. Resurgent of Y two
K fashion. Yeah, so iconic styles that from the late
nineties and early two thousands are making a glamorous comeback
in today's weddings.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
From slip dresses to butterfly motifs, the white two k
era is influencing bridal fashion in unexpected and delightful ways.
So grab your butterfly clips and let's explore how you
can incorporate these trends into your big day. You know
how many butterfly clips I've bought for my daughters and
I was just like, we them, No, it's fine. They
wanted them, but they haven't really played with them. But also,
(04:51):
my girls have very thick hair like me, that we
break them easy. But I was just like, do you
want me to show you how Mammy used to do
her hair? And they're like, no, it's fine. The twist
legit corn rows. I'm like doing fucking corn rows. My
eighth grade picture is the worst thing on the planet.
And I had braces, I had corn rows, and I
had tried the sponge curlers, and my hair always goes
(05:16):
in curls with sponge curlers, so when I took it out,
I had a goddamn afro, which is why I put
corn rows in.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
But like, I'm a.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Pasty assue girl with braces. It is the worst picture
on the entire planet. I love that.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
And my girls are like, yeah, you don't need to
show us how you styled your hair with these, mom.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Ouch, Okay, can't blame them, can't wait to watch their style.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Come back.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Let me help you with your zigzag part.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I have a corn rows.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
On the top of your head, and those bobby pins
will give you the worst headache of your life. But
then we're gonna put a clip over to disguise, and
then we're gonna put a ton of glitter in your
scout because why not wait, and then we're gonna flip
your ends out.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Does this mean in the next five to ten years
we're getting bumpets back?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Uh? Probably?
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Oh dear, it's vintage. I was never able to get
those to work. Oh me either, but.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
My hair was too clean for them.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Also, I just have too much hair that I just
ratted the shit out of my hair and called it today. Yeah,
because you know, you know how many combs I broke
grouting my hair.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
I love that for you.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
So many, like literally right in half and it'd be
stuck in I.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Used to it brushes stuck in my hair. Yeah, not combs. Brushes. Yeah,
and I used to come upstairs crying. My Mom's like,
you need to not brush your hair like that, and
then would like rip my hair out that we have trauma.
I now have a hard head because of my mom
and sister. Yeah. Yeah, I could take a beating from
(06:58):
my four year old nephew. You can pull on my
hair and I'm not even filling it. All Right, we
digressed too much?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Are you ready? Yeah, to start talking about trend number one.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Slip dresses and minimalist silhouettes. One of the hallmark styles
of the y to K era was the sleek and
simple slip dress. Think of the effortless elegance that icons
like Kate Moss and Carolyn Bessett Kennedy showcased.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
My gosh, it's like this was written by me. I
was like, Carolyn Bessett Kennedy is the most iconic slip
dress wedding dress girl ever.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I have no idea who she is in the way
that I just pronounced that name. I'm glad I said
it right.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
She married, She married JFK. Junior.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
You know who died in a plane crash? No Jesus
Christ girl. Oh okay, I think I've seen her.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Megan Markle had said in an interview prior to marrying
Prince Henry Prince Henry.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Harry Prince, I said that was so much Henry the
third Prince, Harry, you went in full blazy. The confidence
that was behind that, you have no right. I know,
I can't believe myself.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Oh I promisely know his name Harry. Anyways, she had
mentioned in an interview it was after because I didn't
I haven't watched suits all the way through, but in there,
her character, I guess gets married, and so it was
after that episode. So there were right before something started
talking wedding dresses with her, and so they're like, you know,
the dress you wear in the show, is that kind
of like the style you would wear someday? And she's like, no,
I'm a lot more like Carolyn Besset Kennedy, Like I
(08:41):
would wear something like her. Okay, So when I was
taking bets with friends at fashion school, I was like,
she's gonna wear something minimal with no detail, and at
some point it's gonna be a sleek, fitted dress. And
everyone was like, nah, she's marrying a Prince of England,
She's gotta wear something frivolous, and I was like, no,
I don't. No, she's not meant to be queen. She
can't like overshadow, Kate.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
I mean, listen, if I was going into the royal family,
I would overshadow.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
You like watch this, Yeah, just you know, stir the
pot there, cass.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
But she did going into that family. Anyways, that's true,
so do it anyways, just.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Piss on the fellow.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Yeah, are you still looking?
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Are you looking up?
Speaker 1 (09:25):
The dress? Her slip dress is cute with that cow neck.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
It is an iconic and the one of him kissing
her hand right there, yeah, that is like the iconic photo.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
I've never seen it.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
That's why I I've seen. I feel like i've seen
her face before, but I've never seen the photos. So
that's why I'm like, I don't Yeah, I've never.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
Seen so Anyways, it's an iconic style, and Okay, I
hope we have more of that because I love that.
So these dresses are characterized by their minimalist design, often
made of satin or silk, offering a timeless and chic look.
Modern brides are embracing the style for its under stated
beauty and versatility.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
It's perfect for those who want that classic look with
a touch of nostalgia. Plus, slip dresses are incredibly comfortable
and can be dressed up or dressed down with accessories.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
Yes, and we're very fortunate Amy Mayor that we carry
has the most beautiful silk slip dresses. We have two
pretty we got to in store yep. So if that
is an aesthetic you are going for, We've got to.
You can come try them on. They feel like butter.
They are just going to highlight your natural shape. They're
not going to overly accentuate in any way. So comfy,
(10:33):
super comfy that if you want to look chic, but
really comfort is the number one for you.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
This is the best way to do it. Absolutely, And
you can always do an overlay or you can she
customizes anything.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
So yeah, you can do a.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Really cool, badass like bridal cape.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
If you have on the overlay.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
You could do the dramatic fils like you know we
mentioned in our New York Bridal Fashion Week one.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
You can do the puff sleeves like they're we're talking about.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
We could do all sorts of fun things to slip dress.
But it's a good versatile one that you could wear.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Again absolutely cute sound dress because it's got some richy,
creamy ivory love.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
All right, guys.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
So trend number two is two piece ensembles, which Cass
is probably so happy for. Another why two kne spire
trend making waves is the two piece bridle ensemble. This
includes crop tops paired with skirts or pants, offering a
modern twist on a traditional wedding attire.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
It is so great for a way to showcase personal
style and adds playful element to the bridal look. Plus,
separates can often be worn again, making them a sustainable choice.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Designers are getting creative with this trend, incorporating various fabrics
and embellishments to cater to different tastes, which is really
fun because you could do an embroidered top with a
simple bottom. You could do a simple topp with an
on bottom fun bottom. You could do like sequins bedazzled stuff.
You could keep it all sleek, you know. I'm thinking
(12:02):
of like Jacquard fabrics could be super cool for.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
A top, which is a huge Another thing coming in
that is very y two k m hm.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Honestly, hear me out. I'm excited to see if like vests,
you know, how many.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Vests I wore.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Don't you dare give me a really good fucking vest again,
Don't you dare?
Speaker 2 (12:26):
My husband fell in love with me. Few pieces?
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Bring in a vest. No. When I was first hired
here the way that I was mocked for my two pieces,
and then they started to come in and I said, yes, the.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
Only thing I'm thinking is of that damn boho picture
from Pinterest or the girls in a two piece and
it's like an inch thick like waistband that looks like
a ridmond with a tool skirt, and then.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
It's the lace top.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
She's got like a bandoo bra on with like a
little lace thing and you say, the little scallop with
the eyelash fringe on her tummy and it's long sleeve.
I have seen that picture too many times in my
life to count, and I am just like, let me
tell you right now, you got any type of shape
to the top half of you. Yeah, those two those
two pieces are fighting fighting each other. They're not gonna
(13:19):
stay in place.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
Was it not pinned to it? I mean, I don't
know the done there or hell was made.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
And it might have just been something someone made at home,
but like and not that that picture was used as
inspiration for my sister in law's dress for Kirsten's black dress.
I did not totally was not no, but she liked
the long sleeve lace with a toll bottom. But I
had told her I was like the silky corset that
we're wearing because Homegirl had some boobs that like we
(13:49):
had to hold up the boobies, so like a band
doo thing, not.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Ideal if you got boobs.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
But because of how silky it was, the lace just
would move up and down, so I had to tack
it to it. I had to put it together as
like a singular right, But like that look is really
hard if you do have to have too much of
a like bust, and you've got to have the right
(14:15):
type of like darts on the side of bus to
like taper it in so it's not too baggy.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Logistically it's a thing.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
You just have to have the the quote unquote ideal
body tap to make I feel like certain two pieces work.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Well, there's other two pieces I've been seeing that like
what I think who had one? Tara Latour Latour has
one that just came out, Oh did she? It was
an ad I have seen super cute, and I think
(14:51):
it's gray pretty loved, and Barbara has one that I love.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Barbara.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Barbara does a good job with two pieces. I will
give her that that. I'm like with a lot of
these custom designers, you just get. What's nice about that
is the top can be a different size and the
skirt can.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Be different, Yes, which is good now, like it's not
fast fashion, yeah, that we're looking at his side. Note
if you heard us complaining in our previous episode we recorded,
we were complaining about tariffs because that's going to change
the whole dynamic of things. But too, Like conceptually, two
pieces I think is cool because it is there's versatility.
(15:32):
It just needs to be done better than what we
had done in the early hy two K.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Which I think Kim Kasos kind of started. Yeah, yeah,
the trend of doing it differently, Yeah, and in a
very cature way, which was really nice.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
So, and I think that's how I would prefer a
two piece, is that if it was a dramatic courset
to like really give me a ship so that I
felt like and then you know, changing out my skirts,
having the long skirt for ceremony, changing to like a
short skirt, having a nice pair of pants that I
could wear with it for like send off, send off,
(16:13):
welcome dinner time. So I'm not showing anything.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Okay, the hell is looking down there when you're eating dinner.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
But I'm just saying if it's got a good leg
slit Knowing me, if I was intoxicated all of my bit,
I would just bump in a chair, not greatly.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Don't we have a designer that was also doing body suits?
Who was that? Was it? In Nara?
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Anara had bodysuits that we saw on their side.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
It was also cool and different.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Yeah, as like a modesty thing that if you weren'
under a strapless dress or whatever, like it almost looked like.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
A leotard kind of stuff. That was interesting. It was
really cool. But yeah, yeah, fun stuff, really fun. So
now we go to trend three where we're getting butterfly
motifs and whimsical details. I just hear Maria Harry singing
when I think of butterflies. I love that.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
Also, I loved butterflies when I was younger, fucking loved butterflies,
like an actual butterfly, all the things like I wanted
all the cutesy shit covered in butterflies. I wanted butterflies.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
I was over here thinking like an actual, like live insect. Well, yeah, no,
I love those too, because I mean, growing up, I
remember those commercials where you could order them. Yeah, oh
hell yeah I wanted those.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Did I get them?
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Nope?
Speaker 1 (17:30):
No I didn't either.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
It's fine, really wanted them.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
But I definitely am a butterfly person.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
But guess what, I'm.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
A millennial that does not have a butterfly tattoo.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
I'm so proud of you, thank you do. I have
roses absolutely and the moon and a moon, but I
don't know. I guess I don't know that's classified as millennial.
I'm just a weird witchy ladies. Wasn't there something we
had seen about if they're a taurus with a rose
moon tattoo rest like a nose ring, and I was like, wow,
oddly specific?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Ah, so good?
Speaker 3 (18:05):
All right, castle'll explain our cute butterfly motif and whimsy details.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
So who could forget the butterfly craze of the early
two thousands. This whimsical motif is fluttering back into bridal fashion,
appearing in embroidery, accessories and even veils.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
It's a symbol of transformation and new beginnings, making it
a fitting choice for weddings. Incorporating butterfly details can add
a touch of magic and nostalgia to your ensemble, whether.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
It's a subtle butterfly hairpin or a bold embroidered bodice.
This trend allows brides to infuse their look with their
personality and charm. I am so here for this.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Like I had these like really dramatic butterfly clips. Yeah,
and you had to like pinch the side to like
open the claw clip to get it in. But it
was like like it was so big and so three
D that like it would like move and they were
and then the edges of them were glitter covered, so
I had like blues and greens and pinks and purples,
(19:01):
and that's I don't remember. I think my mom got
them out like some house party something because there was
all those MLM parties too.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
But it was like, I love those things, but.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
Like they were obnoxious because you'd walk and you could
fill them like yeah moving because they were like on
springs almost.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
That's what I think. We had a bride who wanted
to do some custom butterfly pins in her and her
bridesmaid's hairs as well as is it Madeline White on
TikTok the influencer that.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
You would know influencers better than me.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Well, she had the butterfly shoes that as you walked,
they would move. They were very glittery. Oh h of
a kind, the one that's what the DJDJ?
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Yeah, okay, I forget that's her name.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
I think it's Madeline White girl. I don't know her name, right.
I can hear her voice in my head though, and
all of her videos you can see.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
That's fair.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
But yeah, that's fair.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
So trend number four is bold colors and iridescent fabrics,
moving away from traditional white. Some brides are embracing bold
colors and iridescent fabrics reminiscent of White two K's adventurous
fashion scene.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Absolutely think of Hugh's like icy blue, you did it,
you did it this time cast Ye, think of Hughes
like icy blues, metallics, and even vibrant pinks. These choices
make a statement and reflect a bride's unique personality.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
It's all about breaking the mold and choosing a dress
that truly represents you. Plus, these colors look stunning in photos.
We'll see I mean icy blue.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
I don't know how that's gonna I mean for us,
it's just not our undertone.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
But yeah, I will say like blue and pink. Why
it was like gender revealed party vibe. I went to
one of those, like I think it was a Yankee
candle party or Salt City or whatever.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
It was one of those candle parties because my mom
had a friend who sold them. Yeah, and I begged
my mom to let me get candles. Granted, wasn't allowed
to burn sid of candles, but I was probably Shanna's age.
I was like eleven when I went to this, and
I was just like, these are the coolest candles. And
it was like a two pack, and I was like,
please let me get I'm like single wick little ones.
One was blue and one was pink, and they were
(21:16):
baby powder scented.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Oh I'm spriad.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
This wasn't like sensy SENSEI wasn't a thing yet back then.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
I'll tell you what.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
I loved the smell of that candle. As a child,
I would take those lids off and I would just
sit there and just inhill deeply. But yeah, one was
blue and one was pink, but they were called baby powder.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Did it smell like baby powder?
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Thousand percent? It did, but it had also a little
bit of a florally undercent. All the things that I
hate now in the Son of a Candle was in
that candle.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Love that yep.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
So blue and pink.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Were just huge, like I know, it was like very bubblegum,
like very like I'm a little baby because it's cute.
Because like in the nineties, why the fuck everyone thought
it was cool to stuck on binkies when you were
like older.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
I mean, I know why they do it at raves.
Why do they do it at raves? For the people
who are rolling on certain types of drugs. They do
it so they're not chewing on their tongues and cheeks.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
That's probably where it came from, because you could get
the light up ones too to wear out and take
them to like classic skating.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Yeah that's wild. Yeah. I didn't learn that until like
when I started to go to festivals and people were like, yeah,
they're doing it, so they're not like so some people
will have gum or the binkies so they're not chewing
on their tongues or cheeks because it's like their endorphins
are so in heightened that anything feels good. That's absolutely
terrifying to me. Yeah wow.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
So anyways, yeah, blue and pink were huge iridescent. I
just think all the space everyone was like thinking futuristic,
you know, and so metallics were just everywhere.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
It's fun.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
One of my favorite outfits from limited to was it
had like the metallic threading in it, and it was
like a turtleneck with like a half sleeved in my
elbow and it was like a sweater. Yeah, but it
was like purple with the like iridescent.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Thread in it.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
And then it had a matching pair of plaid pants
that had the same aridescent in it. That's what I
wore in my seventh grade photo and I felt so
cool and I got my Bobby Brown eyeshadow that was
an aridescent purple to match.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
I've seen everybody lately wear these plaid short from early
two thousands, and I will never get on that trend.
They look awful.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Yeah, they weren't even cute then, No, but mine were
bell bottom pants, so it wasn't shorts.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Some short some pants that I've been seeing people wear
are massive wide legs. Well, yeah, they're wearing the old
Jinko jeans that I'm like, who's thinking they look cool?
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Skaters were those and then they had the deep pockets
to put all their shit in.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Yeah. Like, I was at McDonald's the other day and
this man came out with.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
The widest legs I've ever seen and like bright orange hair,
and I was like, the thought that ran through my
head of what SLC punk moving my car towards him
and cass.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
We do not take people out. Sometimes fashion police need
to be a rol thing. Uh did you see the
thing I sent you though?
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Real quick? Another tangent.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
No, Stacy and Clinton are coming back with a fashion
show and it's gonna be on Amazon Prime the end.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Of this month.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
They're not dead yet. No, they're not dead yet. Old
are they eighties?
Speaker 3 (24:47):
They're like in their fifties joking, But they're doing a
whole show again.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
I love it's called where whatever the f you want? Oh,
but back then you could not, God forbid if you
wanted to wear what you wanted. Back then, people they
would straight to your face tell you you're wrong.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
You look ugly as hell. Yes, not anymore.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
No, No, they don't get to be a hypocrite.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
I'm here for it, okay, all right? Tangent over Trend
Number five is statement accessories.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Y two K fashion was all about the accessories. Think chokers,
platform shoes, and mini bags. These statement pieces are finding
their way into bridle fashion, adding a playful and edgy vibe.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Incorporating these accessories can elevate a simple dress and make
it uniquely yours. It's a fun way to nod to
the past while keeping your look contemporary.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Just remember balance is key. Choose one or two statement
pieces to avoid overwhelming your ensemble.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
When are bridal belts gonna be a thing and we're
gonna throw those belts over our dresses?
Speaker 1 (25:55):
What are you talking? Like the belts that we have,
or like an actual belt.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
Like an act shoal belt, like you know, the big
wide belts that like serve no purpose. But we put
them on top of everything. And we'd wear the dresses
with the jeans underneath, and then you'd wear the pointed
shoe and you'd barely see the point of the shoe
because it's probably coming.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
It's probably coming. I mean I saw a lady walking
on campus the other day in a bedazzled belt, So
it's probably coming.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Yeah, I'm just thinking like big old medallion and there's
like the piece that goes around and then the other
one kind of like hangles hangs down, and it's probably
gonna be metallicky and have a bunch of beating on
its downy.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Mark my words, we're gonna see that before we know it.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Would I allow you to bring it in?
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Probably not, just because I don't think anyone here would
buy it? No, But do I want to.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Just be like eff and knew it? Hell? Yeah, absolutely,
I love that.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
That's so funny.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
But I mean we've been seeing little bits of chokers,
mainly scarves, yeah, because we had the.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Scarves to match every goddamn sweat. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
All my striped sweaters came with a matching striped scarf.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
The Infinity scarves.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Yeah, that was a little bit later.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Yeah, and that was like my your junior high years, right, Yeah,
that's when I was going out club.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
And yeah, we were wearing those. We do have one
dress that has a choker we do rather than a scarf,
which is super cute, and it's super cute. I love
a good choker. I don't think I've ever really worn one.
Oh really, Yeah, even grown up chokers are my favorite.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Like I'd constantly buy the like uncomfortable plastic ones in
the vending.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Machine, the weird like windy ones.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
I had those, and like all sorts of colors, and
then I had like little velvet ones that would have
something dangling from it, like a pearl or like an
obnoxious fake crystal.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
I don't I think most of my life, I think
I really fought against trends so you won't find me
and stuff like that. Oh, I very much wanted all
of it, the infinity scarves. I think it was until
like middle school, high school that you might see some
trends I incorporated. But that's funny. Yeah, I don't think
I was ever a trendy person.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
I would usually wear my own things, but I definitely
bought the trendy stuff. Like in high school, I couldn't
afford apple bottom jeans, so I didn't.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
Have those, which guys are coming back, we want something
so bad they are.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Definitely had boots with fur and several that I bought
at Charlotte Rous's.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Yep, loved them, absolutely.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Love Rude twenty one, what seal all of those but
I definitely liked the trendy stuff.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Which I still fight trends. I do.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
I do now only because I guess I'm older and
I'm in that weird stage where there are still women
who are my age wearing shit teenagers wear, and I'm like,
we are twenty.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Years over this, this is bizarre.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
But then there are also people my age wearing shit
that like sixty something year olds are wearing.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Yeah, not a good in between.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
There's not anything.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
That's why I struggle because I'm like, what the hell
does someone my age wear? Right, which, obviously you can
wear whatever you want, and I think it's great if
you're a sixty five year old and you want to
wear like hot, tight teeny bopper outfits, absolutely go for
it because your confidence shines through.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Yeah. I just I don't know where to shop. There
is like no middle aged No I'm not even middle.
Well it's either too young or too old.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
Yeah, I feel the same way, and I'm just like,
I'm a normal aged human.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
Yeah I feel that. So man, my two K fashion
is exciting.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
Just because I'm curious how it's going to be done,
and I wonder if it's going to be done. Then
it's like, oh, I see the excuse me, I see
the inspiration. Yeah, but it's not embarrassing or am I
gonna be like that is absolutely embarrassing and you guys
are gonna feel really dumb in like five years.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Like the Alfred Angelo's.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Honestly, I'm waiting for those I know you are, those
color like the colored ribbon trend, because we've seen little
bits like very thin like Vera Wane did, like.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Little thin belts.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
We've got thibs, but but we haven't gotten into the colors.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
I'm waiting for it.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
I'm waiting for someone to send me a goddamn swatchbook
of like one hundred different colors and being like, which
one you want? If anyone's gonna do, what's gonna be?
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Essence?
Speaker 5 (30:19):
Maybe we'll see, But I do wonder that I don't
something grandy would do it probably probably, but I mean, yeah,
any of the mainstream.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Yeah, probably will.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
But that's what I'm waiting for, is for something like
that where it's like you can personalize it, like have
a customized dress, but like on the right whatever was
considered cheap when that comes out because prices be changing.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yeah for real?
Speaker 3 (30:48):
So all right, well, should we wrap up with our
final thoughts because we had too many tangents on this one.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Yes, because I got to run to the restroom. That's unfortunate.
I'm gonna pee my pants if I continue to sit here,
So that's unfortunate for you, all right, guess so?
Speaker 3 (31:03):
The resurgence of Y two K fashion and bridlewear offers
a blend of nostalgia and modernity, allowing brides to express
their individuality in fresh and exciting ways.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
Whether you're drawn to a slip dress, butterfly motifs, and
bold accessories, there's a Y two K inspired element that
