What's sewing on everyone?
So I'm currently still dressed in my pajamas for reasons that will become clear in just a second.
So basically, I want to make a video where for an entire week
I wear nothing but handmade clothes.
So what you see here on this rack is everything that I have either made from scratch or
significantly up-cycled over the last couple of years excluding some of the more...
"Interesting" make-thrift-buy items,
and there's a couple of things that I haven't kept because I didn't wear them, but this is all the handmade
stuff that I like and have kept. I was actually pretty impressed. There's like maybe 30 or 40 items here
so I'm going to wear handmade outfits for an entire week excluding socks, shoes, and
underwear because I just I haven't made enough of those for an entire week's worth of outfits.
Things would get pretty grimy pretty quickly. And I am allowed to repeat items in outfits
and one of the main reasons that I'm doing this
is to see what my handmade wardrobe is missing, what items I need to make more of, as well as what items
I'm choosing to wear again and again. Items I should make more copies of in different fabrics.
Hopefully I can keep this up for seven days. Let's get started!
So today is Saturday, it's a kind of mild temperature outside 20 degrees.
It's been raining on and off and the sun's been coming out now and again
so I probably want to find an outfit where I've got like a light shirt
but also a sweater or something in case it gets colder later on. Okay, so
here's like a little brief flip through of my
handmade stuff. You'll get to see more of this in the coming week,
but I think I'm gonna wear today is this top that I-
no I'm not because it needs washing!
Okay, I'll wear that another day. What I'm going to wear today is this cute t-shirt and I'm gonna find some pants...
I really haven't made that many pants. I think I'm gonna find that that's something I need to make more of.
These are probably my favorite comfy pair of pants that I have made from a Tilly and the Buttons pattern and
I'm going to layer with this sweater in case I get cold and you know what?
I think this outfit would look cute with a beanie as well so. Gonna throw that in there as well.
I didn't sew it, but I crocheted it so it definitely counts. Okay. Let's see what the outfit is gonna look like.
[Funky music]
I'm mostly just working today answering some emails,
editing some videos, and this is a very comfy outfit-
This is a very comfy outfit to do that in.
These lounge pants are very good for lounging in. I also have not bothered with
makeup 'cause I'm not going out anywhere.
But if I do go out later
we'll do some matching makeup to my hand-made outfit and show you all. By the way
in case you couldn't see it clearly before this is what it says on the front of my shirt.
Yeah, I added this with fabric transfers. I don't know why but it works.
Hello. We're going out for dinner.
Mum: Why does it every trip out with you become a filming opportunity?
Annika: ...'Cause I'm just brilliant and creative!
Mum: Gets it from me.
Both: Laugh
Okay good morning good morning.
We have to pick an outfit. We're going to the markets today and it's going to be about 21 degrees
so we have to pick something warm and
comfy. Okay 21 is probably warm if you live in like England or something
but that's kind of cold for Australia and it's
15 to 21. 21 is the maximum so it probably won't even get up to that.
So I'm probably gonna wear something with tights.
Okay, so I have realized
that I am gonna be wearing this a lot because it's the only warm thing that I have actually made ever.
Yes, the only sweater top that I've ever made so I'm gonna wear that layered over
this is one of my favorite dresses that I've made which is from one of my tutorials.
I'm gonna wear this and finally I'm gonna wear this handmade beret
as well and I'm gonna wear some tights under the dress, too. All right, let's see how that looks.
[Funky music]
I decided that I'm gonna wear my fanny pack too 'cause that just seems like a useful thing to have at a market.
It's easy to access money and
because it's a food markets I'm going to bring my "hand"bag with me because it's just a big good-sized
canvas bag.
We're off to the markets woohoo! And I forgot to mention earlier
I actually handmade these earrings too.
I thought they were appropriate for food markets because they're little forks.
Oh my gosh- wah!
Are you the sweetest thing? Ah, I'm so happy right now!
Oh, you're gorgeous, yes you are.
What a successful trip.
Annika bought so much fabric didn't she Ella? She bought a whole bag of fabric. Oh no. Ohhhh no.
Morning everyone so um, it is Monday and it is raining a lot today, but it's kind of warm?
So I'm like, I don't know what I'm gonna wear. I don't- I haven't made anything that's waterproof.
So, let's see what I can pick out today to wear. I actually realized that I have a cardigan or two in here
so I'm not gonna have to wear the pink jumper every single day.
Although it is pretty cute, but that's gonna get a bit boring after a while.
Okay, so let's choose something to wear. Remember this make-thrift-buy?
It was like make-thrift-buy 35 or something?
I'm gonna wear this t-shirt today. It's actually not too cropped. So my belly's not gonna be freezing. Yay!
I really need to make myself some non crop tops. What else am I going to wear?
[Funky music]
I'm not having a great day.
I'm soooo tired, but
you know what? These pants are great for layin around in. Lounge pants! I'm on the lounge. Mm-hmm. Oh, that wore me out.
Hello everyone, today it is Tuesday, and I just attempted to dye my hair purple, but I didn't have enough dye
so I diluted it a lot with conditioner and now it's very silver purple. I'm not sure if it's gonna work.
Anyway, I'm gonna choose a hand-made outfit.
It is...
The forecast said it'd be raining, but it is very warm and sunny. It's very nice.
So I think I'm gonna wear like a top like this. I upcycled this in the challenge I did
with April a couple of- last year? Year before that? And it would look pretty nice with this skirt.
So I'm gonna go ahead and throw that outfit on. I'll be back in a sec. Okay, sad news: the top is good
But this skirt hella doesn't fit since I changed weight. It looks alright. I tried to belt it up
but then at the back it's like all bunches up at the back there, which doesn't look awesome, so
I'm gonna change. I'll try and find something else that goes with this top.
[Funky music]
And just in case I get cold I'm taking with me this cardigan that I up-cycled for an art show a
year ago. It says the future is accessible on the back.
Quote made popular by Annie Segarra who is a disability youtuber on YouTube -
obviously. Well, okay my hair dye didn't work that well,
but my outfit's very cute, so I'm gonna go out and
sit in the sun somewhere because I need some sunlight.
Vitamin D. And here's what it looks like with the cardigan on. Cute cute cute outfit I think and-
sparkly shoes! Sparkly shoes!
Well, hello, it is Wednesday and it's time for another
morning of trying to figure out what to wear.
So let's try find something. Now, it's annoying because I've made lots of dresses but
It's only 23 degrees. It's not super warm.
I want to keep my shoulders covered but a lot of the dresses I've made do not have sleeves.
I'm definitely going to have to make more pants and more skirts and more dresses with sleeves.
That's something I am noticing. Ok.
I decided on a off-shoulder crop top, a white one that I made. I made a tutorial for this recently,
it's make-thrift-buy 65, and this floral pinafore, which I made for a make-thrift-buy like some years ago
And for some reason I have not worn this enough like at all.
So this is actually a pretty cute combo I think. And with the beret too - I like it.
And then to go full granny-chic because
it is forecast to rain today, I've got this floral cardigan that I can put over the top
so basically it looks like a granny cardigan over your grandma's couch.
[Funky music]
Annika: We are so cute!
Luci: Hey guys, welcome to Luci's vlogs,
the behind the scenes expose of Annika's real studio.
Who does she have in here making the clothes for her?!
[Annika laughs off-screen]
Hello everyone, it's Thursday and
I'm really grumpy today. I was in pain all last night and it's just put me in a real angry state
I've been listening to Nirvana and Rage Against the Machine all morning.
So I think today I feel like more of a
neutral-toned outfit, not something super pink and dolly-like, like yesterday.
I think I'm gonna put on something with black and
grey, I'm thinking maybe this.
This black lace singlet top layered over a shirt like this or another t-shirt. It'll be good. It'll be very...
angsty.
[Funky music]
I like this little sneaky boob alien kind of like poking out from underneath there. Like did I see an alien? Okay.
Here's my final
outfit for today, it's quite different from every other day's outfit, but it suits my mood, man.
I've got greasy-ass hair today, but I also decided that just goes with the aesthetic. I don't have to shower.
[Heavy metal music]
At uni.
Luci: Uni?
Annika: You-knee! I'm going to class now. Bye.
Luci: Byeee.
[Funky music]
I'm not grumpy anymore because I had a really good class.
Gooood morning! It is Friday, which means it is the last day of the challenge!
So initially
I thought this challenge was gonna be hard
But now I'm actually bummed about the things that I didn't get to wear including banana dress,
gingham dress made from bed sheets, popsicle dress, these overalls.
Today's gonna be a warm 27 degrees. It's hot. It's sunny.
I'm also on a bunch of extra medicines today because I'm having my wisdom teeth taken out tomorrow.
Yay! If this video is being uploaded the surgery went well.
Anyway, I want to wear something light, comfortable, colorful, and cute so -
Let's get the outfit!
[Singing] Da da da daaa! Remember this t-shirt from day one?
I washed it and I'm going to pair it with these shorts which we have already seen with an outfit.
But they're very comfortable and they have pockets so.
[Funky music]
Today I have done a lot of...
Hashtag laying but slaying. I'm not feeling great from the medicines, but that's okay,
and I feel like because I'm vlogging my week
I have to be busy and always doing things every day so that it's interesting -
but actually that's just my anxiety.
Anyway, my outfit's very cute, and I look very cute and I'm just gonna lay here and
then I'm gonna have some dinner and then I'm going to watch a movie
and that's all I'm gonna do tonight. And that's okay.
Here's my outfit. It's very comfy for laying around in. [Laughs]
Looking back at the items I chose to wear for the week
I have realized that I mostly wear things that either have no pattern on the fabric
or just a subtle pattern on them, like these
plaid pants. Now,
this is at odds with most of the things in my handmade wardrobe,
which are covered in patterns and novelty prints.
This suggests to me that I should be making more things out of plain fabrics
or at least using more subtle prints that go really well with a lot of other colors.
So no more making things out of bright obnoxious statement fabrics,
at least not as much because I won't wear them.
I also chose to wear this pink sweater two out of the seven days
but I would have worn it more if I wasn't worried about it getting boring.
I love this sweater. It's really easy to layer
so I'll probably make more sweaters using this pattern, which is a self drafted pattern.
I also think that I need to make more outerwear in general.
I'm gonna get a head start now for winter, which is a whole eight months away for us here in Australia
so I've got plenty of time to work on that.
I also think I should make more pants with this pattern (A Tilly and the Buttons pattern). Again,
I wore these pants two out of seven of the days and I would have worn them a lot more if I'd have them in
other prints. The subtle tartan print on these pants goes with a lot of different outfits
so I need to make another pair or two or three using fabrics that are similarly versatile.
Also, I rediscovered how cute these shorts are!
I made a pattern for these shorts almost two years ago
And I'm totally gonna use it to make more of these shorts
maybe with a pastel pink or a subtle plaid or gingham fabric.
Because they're super comfortable and most importantly - they have pockets!
I also noted that I mostly chose to wear clothes that were loose-fitting
and comfortable so I should continue making things that are
loose-fitting. I shouldn't be adding any tight-fitting things to my handmade wardrobe.
Oh and I need some more tops. As much as I love crop tops, I need to focus on making some tops that are
not cropped. I really need to make myself some non crop tops. Oh also more fanny packs!
I definitely need to make fanny packs in colors other than pink.
This one only goes with a few different colors of outfits
But I want to make a wider range in different colors
because they're really handy and they also I just really like how they look
So this challenge has allowed me to figure out what clothes
I actually like and wear the most which has been really enlightening
because now I know what I should focus on actually making.
I always thought that I was someone who really loved
novelty prints and loved wearing novelty prints
but now that I know what I know, I should stay away from the whole novelty fabric
print section at the fabric store or
the thrift shop because while I am drawn to them at fabric stores, in practice
I actually don't wear them that much-
always learning things about myself!
And now a message from our sponsors. In the spirit of learning something
new, learning more about yourself and what you can do,
I have a sponsor to bring you today who aims to do just that -
which is to teach you a new skill. Whether your passion
is in fashion and design or something totally different like animation, film production, music, illustration,
crochet, photography, social media, running your own business,
Skillshare has the resources to teach you how to do it. So here's a fun fact about me:
I have learned pretty much everything that I know about sewing, about fashion, about design from the internet.
I have never taken a course or a class.
I am totally self-taught. What I like about Skillshare is that it takes the work out of searching for
different quality tutorials
online and instead it brings all the resources that you need to learn a skill into the one place on its website and that website
is called Skillshare! What I really like about Skillshare is that it is not
expensive. A premium membership is just under $10 a month
which in most countries is literally thousands of times less than enrolling in a college course to learn essentially the same skills.
It's also flexible. You can do it in your own time at your own pace, which is another great thing about it.
They even have some free classes on there too! I believe strongly in affordable accessible quality
education and that is what Skillshare believes in too.
Education is a really empowering thing and Skillshare can give you the skills and tools that you need to unlock your
opportunities and do the kind of work that you want to do. So Skillshare has given me a link so that the first
500 people who use it will get not one but two free months of premium membership.
So that gives you access to all of the videos on Skillshare
for free for two months so you can try out Skillshare
totally risk-free. You can cancel at any time for two whole months
All you got to do is click the link in the description box below to get started.
Thank you so much to Skillshare for supporting this video and thank you so much to all of you for supporting the companies that support
this channel so that I can continue to bring the internet free fun and mostly educational content.
I'll see you all in my next video, which I promise will be the make thrift try challenge!
Thank you to everyone who entered for being really patient with me while I got that video up and running.
I am very excited to show you all of the super cool makes that this community has made. That's it for me.
I hope you enjoyed this video and I hope you're all having a really good day.
Bye! Thank you to all of my supporters on patreon and Ko-fi for making this video possible.
