One of my biggest mistakes is buying an item that is similar to another item I am wanting. Instead of waiting for a restock or saving up a little more. I almost always end up regretting it.

I love fashion for this, even though my closet isn't that big, (at least the parts of it that I wear) I feel like every piece that I really fall in love with and joins my constant rotation becomes timless for me and my look. even if some people may still wear ultraboosts, they might only be doing so because they grabbed that trend years ago and never really came off of it. The closet of that person might not be what you consider timeless or aesthetic but they may have really found themselves in this active-wear lifestyle corner of the industry. I feel like you cant criticize someone for doing that and simply feeling comfortable with themselves.

That last rule should basically be THE rule for fashion. Knowing your individual style and what works for you will make things so much easier for you. I’m 6’10 and 340. Solidly proportionated but there are some things I just can’t wear and I know that lol. I think one last rule should be that whatever you wear, wear it with confidence. Because a lot of times, the person makes the outfit, not the outfit making the person.

The Samba comeback is beautiful and terrifying for me. I’ve been wearing them since I was 14 and have had a pair every year until I beat them. This year I got 4 of them and they are legit the low top shoe I wear most. But man when the trend goes away I’m sad that adidas will reduce the colorways that drop again.

Honestly, I agree with all your talking points for this video. Buying into trends used to waste so much of my money.

I’m 44 and still wear stuff I have owned since high school because I try to get things for the long haul… quality, fit and stuff I love authentically not because it’s trending, plus the stuff always cycles back so I get compliments on stuff that I’ve had for decades. Congratulations on 100k. Love your channel

It is always nice to buy something when it is the trend. It becomes a mistake/problem when you become too invested into the trend and end up having half your wardrobe being trendy. Personally I have a wardrobe of things i like which i consider to be timeless but have a couple pieces which are trendy, just because I wanted to spice up the fashion game 🔥

The analysis about the trend purchases topic is fantastic, even if it’s really, REALLY HARD to stay completely coherent to it, because of social acceptance and the amount of media that surrounds us and allow us to get influenced way way faster than ever. In addiction, I believe that, regarding the third point, we should learn to appreciate more and more styles we wouldn’t embrace if worn by others with great pieces, attitude and style. PVV: overall I can’t complain, bad days do exist but I’m managing to overcome them. Thx for asking, enjoy your 100K ✌🏼

This year really flew ! Congrats on 100k btw. I feel like I’ve heard you express it before but, trends are kinda what helped me find my style. Some trends can stick and become a staple in a wardrobe , and now thru learning fashion history I’m able to blend what I picked up from trends with like historical backing. I think fashions biggest lesson, whether it’s making the clothes or wearing them, is to find YOUR voice.

It’s hard to not look like you’re following a trend when you like certain things like say new balance and then they become popular and people start wearing them

I love how open you are about being in a transitional season and the value of slowing down and being in the present

Congrats for 100k such a great milestone! Also, love your take on the power of social acceptance. It is such a real thing to verbalize because so many of us can easily base our likes in fashion or life, not off individuality or what we truly like, but only on what we believe intrinsically will provide us acceptance from others. Love hearing what you have to say, consistently provides intersting insight and thought for my day in fashion and in life in general. Peace & Love homie

congrats on the 100k 👊 love watching your content and i’m super excited to always see what you have in store for us!!

i'm in high school, sometimes it's hard for me because i don't fit in with my classmates, i'm from brazil but i like the american style and i'm a girl who loves baggy clothes I'm trying to accept myself more, I feel good about myself but it's hard not to be accepted by others Thank you for the advice

Dude I am OBSESSED with your videos! I saw your TvT pt. 2 vid and got hooked. Love the content, love the vibes, keep it up brother!

Getting a measuring tape is super underrated advice. It makes online shopping SO much easier and opens a lot of doors for online thrifting and reselling stuff. I've been into fashion for a while but since I noted down the measurements for some of my garments, it's made it super easy to cross reference with stuff I see online.

So proud of how far you’ve come drew. Been here for 1+ year now and it’s been so amazing to see your growth as an influencer and person! So incredibly inspired by everything and I’d really hope to meet you one day!!!💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

I love your down to earth view on fashion! I'm guilty of falling for trends(shoes 😅) far too often, I'm looking for more timeless pieces to add to my wardrobe from now on. I've always believed fahion is subjective, & very personal as well. Congratulations on the milestone, heres to the next milestone! 🥃🥃

These are really helpful tips because I didn’t even know my measurements lol I’m gonna start watching more of your vids. I love your perspective on styling.

Love these Videos!👌 Could you make a video on how to decide on clothes that you consider buying? Especially when sth is a little more expensive and you're not 100% sure if it's the right thing to buy, like what should one take into consideration? I think a lot of people (me included) get excited abt sth and spend lots of money on it and then end up regreting it. A guide would be amazing!

i love your videos, i feel the passion you have for this and im here to appreciate it. much love drew🫶🏽

great takes. Love the way you talk about fashion overall after watching many of your vids.

Thank you for the succinct delivery on a topic I’ve been thinking a lot about recently.

Hello, just wanted to say hi and thank you from Sweden! It’s fun to see and listen to your thoughts from here! Hopefully you continue over time with these videos

speaking sum facts, it should matter what you like and how you wanna style yourself. always fw the vibe of the vids, keep it up bro

love how you always bring laini somehow into your vids she's my favorite

i love your videos they’re such a vibe every time

Love this video esp the end part find myself gearing my style to make my family friends and partner happy but I need remember what I like thank u and love ur channel ☺️

You always have the best fashion videos, just subscribed!

I'm glad I subbed to your channel and I came here from watching What's The Hype channel. Both of y'all make great videos. Trying to figure out what I wanna wear for the new year while I'm in Japan. Thank you!!

Wow I don’t know why but I got caught off guard when you asked how we’re doing. Honestly it’s been rough, still trying to move forward from my former long term relationship, but shit like this, finding my fashion sense and ultimately who I am as a person, how I want to really present is so important to me right now. So thank you for asking man, been watching you grow and you seem like an amazing, genuine person. I admire your perspective on fashion and it has not only helped me be aware of interesting topics regarding fashion, but also helping me go through some tough times. Much luv 💜💜💜✨

#pvv. I was not ready for that third bop haha. Congrats on 100k Drew! So proud of you

i get caught off guard whenever you reference other fashion youtubers that i also watch, it’s like woah you know about Laini too? so cool that you’re supporting other channels in your videos!

lol i truly still need that reminder about knowing my measurements- self-perception is tough without numbers sometimes! i'm doing ok recently, kinda stuck in my job search since i'm graduating in February but it's nothing urgent so i'm chill overall. congrats on 100k!! #pvv

I'm doing well, recently ive been getting into fashion and ive binged about 30 of your videos

I never cared about fashion until a week ago when i watched a video or 10 and started buying and wearing outfits with intent and man has it changed my outlook and everything. I felt more confident and ppl view me differently in a good way. I’ll see where my journey takes me and hope to come back to my comment in a year or so inshaalah.

Drew! I’m so happy to have found your slice of heaven on the internet. I’ve been working in fashion for a while and found myself getting sick of it all - in particular the endless trend, marketing, and sale cycle. Your videos remind me why I loved it in the first place. You and Alec Leach’s The World Is On Fire But We’re Still Buying Shoes. I’m off social media so I’m dressing for myself now - Margaret Howell, Studio Nicholson, and old fuddy duddy British brands like Burberry and Trickers. I notice that while my style doesn’t change too much, the silhouettes have embraced the times and right now it’s looser trousers and oversized tops. Been really fun styling outfits like this, feels more free! Love the videos, looking forward to many more ❤

Just found your channel, I never expected something like this to exist 😂 I want to encourage you in this, you’ve got great input! The format is super digestible with a relaxed vibe, and the info is top stuff. I feel personally validated in this because I’ve been wearing Sambas for years now 🤷‍♂️ Great stuff drew! Subbed.

PVV first off congrats for 100k thats just a result of the good energy and quality content you put out, you def deserve it. Im out here in a new city tryna make new friends so it can be tough sometimes but watching these vids helps out a ton in keeping my calm and style up lol. keep doing you drew✌️

I think the topic "the desire for a personal uniform" would make a cool video. I dont know about you drew but I´ve had that desire for a while now but I also realise that it will probably never happen for me. It would be interesting to hear what your take on that topic would be. PVV: Enjoying a new Drew Joiner video in the background as I´m wrapping up my master of architecture.

Congrats on reaching 100k subscribers, have been watching your videos for a while now, and I can't think of one video of yours that I haven't liked or i thought it could be better, all of them are at a pretty high level of video making. Personally I love your videos because I find that every topic that you bring is very interesting and also because of the great vibes, but I think there isn't a soul on the planet that can dislike your videos just because they are so well made and mostly because I think your able to put a smile on everyone's faces, and that's awesome. Keep grinding 💪

Just found your channel. You're amazing and you're going to get big. Keep going mans

#PVV Doing okay. Finding the next step in my life for next year. Been trying to move abroad now for about a year and its going slow and steady. There are some challenges to it, mainly applying for a work visa. I'm also 20 years old and never really left the nest so its a big step in my life. Been saving so much money that I really haven't spent the money I want to on my wardrobe (Finally found a style that I like to wear). I'm originally from L.A. but moved to Tucson, AZ for a more affordable living. I don't enjoy Tucson very much and I'm trying to leave ASAP. So I'm praying by summer of 2023 ill be out and in Europe! Keep doing amazing things Drew!

I love these. Im going to go do my measurements right now! Lol when the video ended, I was like noooo he needs to post more! Also, very good point at the end. Ps: I love you!

Damn bro u speak faxx ! Love the video, ur voice is perfect to speak on what ever 🫶

Just subbed recently and I love your vids! Congrats on your success and may life bring you even more! I love fashion, I always wore carpenter pants and corduroy and now everyone has that in college lol, it makes me not want to wear them anymore bc so corny. But I truly love my pairs 😂

Talking about the PVV - I think that slowing down from the "regular" life of what is going on really helps the mental sanity of some people, me included. I find that working in certain industries and even trying to keep up with things on social media especially get tiring over longer periods of time. And coming into the end of the year it's good to take a deep breath, look at you done over the year and appreciate it for what it is. I feel at the end of the year people should relax a bit and take it year. Each year is good and bad but taking time for yourself is the most important. Also good shoes are important too.

always feel a little inspired after a drew joiner vid

Hey drew i really want to see some streetwear brand tier list. i want to hear your opinion on some of the “hype” brand that was in the past and current ones!

Congrats on 100k Drew.

Weekly Drew video... best way to end the first day of the week fr! #pvv Life's been good, my gf and I have been hella productive lately and it feels good to get shit done. Congrats on 100k again bro!

Reading fashion comments are so insightful and fire!

I feel like thrifting answers a lot of these problems, cause it’s a unique article of clothes, and I get to tailor it to me. And I can always try something new and if I don’t like it, donate it again or resell it. Also congrats on your KZfaq plaque! Been watching for about 3 months now, so excited to see your channel grow. Don’t worry about pushing the envelope, just focus on developing your voice and establishing your audience, but most importantly, writing vids on what YOU want to do. I love watching videos where the creator is passionate about what they have made, and chances are if I’m following your KZfaq channel and the algorithm pushed me your content, we have similar interest, and I will also enjoy that subject!

From Korea. I'm into fashion and actually doing fashion thing, and plus, I'm studying English. I wanna tell you that your videos all are really helpful to study English and get the foreigner fashion thoughts at the same time.

Appreciate your genuineness throughout your videos! My love for fashion has grown just by watching you because you've enabled me to be more confident in my choices while also being cohesive to my purchases and what would be worth it in the long run #timelesspieces #pvv

Congrats on 100k! This channel is great. #pvv life is going ok. I have senioritis bad.. one more semester to go.

Keep making such great videos. Love from Berlin:)

much better now because i was not expecting the 3 time!! i had my fist there on my screen ready for the pvv fist bump, but I was caught of guard

CONGRATS ON 100K!

Congrats on 100k! Been watching for a while and I always love your content.

Wearing what's right for you is so important, as I've been working on my wardrobe I realised how important that is. Whether that item is "trendy" or "classic" it's important if its a staple for you. #pvv honestly there is alot going on right now, working on new artworks which is scary and exciting at the same time. I completely understand that feeling of what's next... but I think what helps me combat that is remembering how far I've come so it helps me celebrate the wins a little more

Honestly another thing i dont see people covering alot is understanding different fits as in loose fit, regular, slim and so on. This might seem obvious but if someone is just starting out and they're trying to recreate a certain outfit of style in general they might get confused as to why they're failing and fail to see the details in clothes such as dropped shoulders that give off a certain vibe.

#pvv been a bit sick recently and had to miss a weeks worth of school but im hopeful that i can get it all done before the new wave of work comes in

Just a thought but I feel like when it comes to fashion I think it is so nice to go through phases because its fun to mark an era and I think a really fun aspect of it is that who you hang out with can influence you. Some may say that marks a lack of personal identity but I think it also helps us connect. Like when you connect with someone over music and you both wear an artists merch or matching necklaces or something. Also #PVV Just wanted to say that I found your videos when I was going through a really hard time and watching you brought me so much comfort it's been about a year since I found your channel. Also congrats on the little youtube trophy thing you deserve it I feel like even though we are different genders you give fashion advice that resignates with everyone.

i hear you on everything but like about the trend of sambas and adidas in general, i own a pair of sambas and i’ve always loved adidas’s stuff. So i just feel like most people should also just keep with what they’ve liked and eventually people will realize that and appreciate not everyone hops on bandwagons

Thank you 🙏 this was very helpful thank you 😊 ❤🇬🇧🙏

I went to a local antique/vintage market today and saw the black samba/parachute pant combo way too many times. When people buy trends it becomes boring, I like when I go out and see peoples variety of interests when it comes to clothes. When everyone has the same thing on it's pretty corny.

The pvv was even my favorite part of the video but the rest was also soo interesting

Love how you showcased Jadon Grundy !!

I feel like I'm blessed just knowing what I want, obviously I take from trends, but I never need this internal reflection to find out why I'm buying something and how it'll hold up in my style(s). There used to be cases where I'd get tired of stuff I bought that excited me at the time, maybe it was stuff I saw others pull off that I just didn't have the wardrobe for in the long run, but that hasn't happened for the longest time now. Even when I make a hasty purchase and don't like the fit of a zipper hoodie after all, I'll just under-layer it. I get the appeal of a clear and trimmed down closet mostly consisting of solid all-rounders, but by instead holding on and seeing if I can support those pieces of clothing as I expanded, I've managed to give them great life after all. As a result the combinatorics are absolutely crazy, I put on cohesive fits every day and have never had to repeat one fully, the clothes last very long with how little I wear them since I frontloaded quite some purchases. This is risky, I'm overal for picking stuff up deliberately and thus usually slowly, as adviced by most, but in my case doing this once and doing it well has payed off, and now I just have this crazy framework to go off when slowly picking stuff up as usual from here. I feel like every purchase lives up to it's potential, and I no longer get bored of my selection, it really is a constant creative process again. For an analogy, I used to have a small but cool selection of paints, they'd all run out pretty quickly and simultaneously, so then came the new season of colors to work with. Now... I do what all painters do

Congrats on the plaque man, seeing you grown has been dopeee. If they sleeping on you now they gon regret it later, truss me.

Well expressed vid as usual!

Just wanted to say thanks for the great videos. You’re always entertaining me. I’m from Germany but your videos are an interesting inside into the American fashion scene

#pvv So crazy you asked this because right before the pvv started I was like, "I wonder how Drew is doing?" so thanks for asking and thanks for telling us how you are doing. I'm doing well. I also feel like I'm gaining success in things I've been working towards for years and wondering what's next. I'm trying to less and less associate my personal satisfaction with my level of "success" and productivity. Trying to find new hobbies and things that I enjoy doing just because. I hope you don't get too caught up in the success you have here and can love fashion just because you love it. You have created such a positive community here that I've enjoyed so much since subscribing. Sending good vibes and positivity your way.

so great video ❤

another banger from drew

been watching nothing but fashion vids recently but your vids are pretty relaxing

omg i love your videos! i only recently started watching and you always explain things in a really sophisticated yet easy to understand way! so thank you!! i think my biggest fashion mistake is impulse buying and not really considering if i like a piece or if i have just attached a personality/scenario to the piece !

this channel is blessed, you have a wonderful energy

Hey drew, I’m starting a fashion club at my school… if you were in my situation what are some key pillars you’d include and some of the things you’d want to prioritize?

Glad you do read the comments, but love your channel and vibe bro keep up the good content!

Man this fashion homework/projects are crushing my sleep, but these videos keep me company 👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽 bap3x lol

your vids are mad refreshing

your channel is awesome. discovered him like two days ago and i already watched almost every video. actually i thought you were a huge channel with millions of subscribers because of the quality of your videos. really glad i found you!! love your channel!! ps. sorry for spelling & grammar mistakes. english is not my first language

Ngl this is the best fashion channel out there

Timeless* is definitely a factor for seasonal gear for me.. #pvv better now that I found Drew! Many thanks for following your bliss.. BIG BOP for you 👊💥 these videos inspired me to pay more attention to what I wear, which is a compounding interest factor in self care. Congrats on 100K, Keep it moving!

Another thing to consider is location, there’s trends on a micro and macro level. Something maybe out of style somewhere but completely hyped somewhere else. Certain cities around the world have been doing certain trends for the last 10+ years and you’ll see It just catching on elsewhere.

Congratulations On 100k Drew! To be honest, there is little to no consistency when it comes to sizing in the global clothing industry. While you can know your measurements (and you should) there’s a good chance what you get won’t fit you exactly if your body shape isn’t represented in the stores. So if you have sewing skills or access to a tailor, get your clothes adjusted for that perfect fit.

Greatly deserved that 100K plaque, can't wait to see that mil plaque, love.

Sensational video.

Whoo, Cape Town! :) - Lovely video Drew, congrats on 100K!

Love that outfit! Where’d you get that hat? Vintage right? Who makes the fleece? I love it

Congrats on 100k!! 🎊

#pvv thanks Drew I’m doing great and congrats on 100k KZfaq play button

Im new into the big fashion game and I have to ask for any tips on finding your style.

My favorite fashion is anything vintage I’m addicted to getting heavy weight items at the thrift hard to find things that fit correctly tho

You should talk abt trendy colors. Like beiges together and neutrals are super in, colorful crochet, I know red is a rising fall color trend. But yeah like are any of these particularly trendy, or timeless

I don’t know, I just love his energy and vibe, could listen for hours💕

the thread connecting #2 and #3 is the mistake of always thinking if you love it you need to have it. so i wouldn't say they contradict, theyre related since its necessary to be realistic about whether what you love will be timeless for you. if not then its totally okay to appreciate it from afar.
