  1. Great job on your first video! Cute outfit ideas.I like that you are not sizing down on the pants. I think the wide leg pants are much more flattering when the fabric is not stretched across the crotch area like I have seen with other bloggers. I think the fit is meant to be flow-y (if that is a word). One technical comment: The sound is a bit echo-y. A small area rug might help with that.

    1. Thank you Kathy!! Yeah the sound was definitely a challenge to me, I was too far away from the mic! I’m brainstorming some solutions for the next one. And I love your perspective on the pants, haha.

  2. LOVE the video format Andrea. You’re an absolute natural! For the sound, you can correct this slightly in post (that’s what I do), otherwise there’s a few different mic options.

  3. Love the video! Also I agree completely with your view on the looser fit of the wide leg pants! To me it looks so much better and I’ve been scratching my head as to why so many seem to prefer a snug fit. Just my opinion, but I feel they look ill fitting, that the proportions are off, when worn that way. It’s almost like trying to hang onto the fit of straight leg/skinny pants while venturing into wide leg territory?

    1. That is an interesting thought Caroline! I wonder if that’s why we’re all reluctant to go loose-fitting all the way. Great point! It definitely makes me think about my size choices. Thank you for the kind words about my video. :)

  4. Hi Andrea,
    The website says that the black shirt can be purchased a size down for a “relexed fit” verses an “oversized” fit in your regular size. Which did you go with here? I usually wear a 6/8 on top. Normally a medium. I’m wondering if this would be too oversized and I should go with a small? Thoughts?

    1. Hi Priscilla! I sized down to a small. The fit is beautifully relaxed on me, and I normally wear a 6 or a medium. So it sounds like a small might be a good fit for you too. Keep me posted!
