Makeover Mondays

Hey, beautiful people. Okay.

Tj with solutions by tj. And let me stand back a little bit. All right, so this has been an interesting week.

One thing that I'm realizing is you got to show up whether you feel like it or not, when you dedicate and make your decision to do so. And today is one of those days where, you know, I'm here, but I ain't all the way here. But I was so fresh and live today, I had to show y'. All. Okay, so this shirt. My sister bought this shirt from teu. Look how cute it is. Doesn't it fit nice? It has a little peplum effect, little sleeve effect. And then I paired it with these seven leggings from.

Costco. I love the brand. Seven for all mankind. And lucky, those are my favorite pants in the world because they fit so well. And then I already had these boots, and it was just a comfy look. Paired it with this purse, one of my Louis Vuittons. The inside is red, so I gave it a little bit of color. This is a look for the day with the jewelry, Liberty, the rings. Oh, and I have on a gold bracelet.

And that's it. Real casual look. Not doing too much. Not doing too little. The only thing that I did not wear out of all of my outfits this week was this little number. And I could have wondered if I were going somewhere.

Friday or Saturday, but it was. It got cold Saturday night. No, Sunday night last night. So I ain't wearing. All right, so this is what I'm wearing this week. I know that you guys saw this last week. This is another number that I did not get to wear, But I'm wearing it this week, probably tomorrow. And I'm thinking about what color jacket I'm gonna put on. So join my Instagram channel. And I'm gonna try to put something on here, too. I'm gonna make a reel or something out of the photos that I have, but I'm gonna wear this so that you guys can see what this stuff looks like when it's on. When I put it together. Now, I was talking about look at butter. I was talking about this outfit last week. It's real simple. It's a maxi skirt. But then this maxi skirt, baby gives it to you, honey, with this split on the side. Can y' all see this split? Let me. Where's the split? Oh, that is. Yeah, baby, that's split. Nice, nice, nice, nice.

And I'm gonna pair this with these tennis shoes and this shirt.

And it. It's gonna be cute. It's something that's real casual. I ain't trying too hard, too little.

But yeah, it'll have that little pop of orange in there. But these shoes have the yellow, they have a pink and they have a blue, they just don't have that orange. So I might pop little old bag or something with it to bring out that orange. But that's going to be super cute.

I also have for this coming week.

Let me put my bag down.

For this coming week. Let's see. So I buy all of my clothes.

Leggings and jeans and stuff. I probably could go down the sides. Let me tell you the old story about why I started buying my tight fitted stuff a little looser. So I was working at this company and boy, boy, boy, I had a pain that would not go away. I went to my auntie's house during the middle of the day, crying, laying on her couch and she kept saying, girl, what's wrong? What is wrong with you? And I was like, I'm too embarrassed to tell you. I can't tell you because you gonna laugh at me. And she just kept on asking what was wrong. So I told her, I said I had this pain. She was like, girl, what pain? I said, some pain going up my left coochie lip. I mean my left toe, all of my all went my right coochie lip. And she died. She died. She did not get herself together until I started looking like I was about to cry. So I, she said, okay, okay, okay. That's some tight pants you got on. The pants squeezing your thighs so hard that they making you hurt. So baby, I ain't worn tight pants since then. So these are large and even though I have to keep pulling them up, sweetheart, the pants not gonna give me like that ever again. Okay? So if you got a pain going from one of your toes to your coochie, baby, there's some pants and we used to wear skinny skinny. Oh hell no, I ain't wearing nothing skinny skinny. So these bubble gum leather pants, I'm give these a shot this week along with this button down shirt.

And this totem carry vest. Now this vest is just super cute. It has a whole bunch of detail and y' all gonna see how I pull this whole thing together. But it's gonna be like a bubble gum and royal blue type of thing and, and I'll show you. I don't know how it's gonna come together but you know, we don't see. I mean the pinks though. And I gotta do something cute with that shirt because it's an oversized shirt, so I got to tie it up somehow and play with it to make it look like I want it to look.

Not quite sure of what jewelry I'm gonna have on, but yeah, it's the pink on pink. And just to give you a little bit of an idea how this vest looks.

This is one of those vests. It's totem carry is the brand. And this is one of those things you wear when you go into a festival or something or you're traveling.

You can tighten this back up or let it out. And it has the. All of these pockets all around of it. Now, mind you, I ain't gonna put. Never putting them in these back pockets. But this is. It has this green polo. So I may rock, maybe a green purse. I'm not sure. Depends on how I choose to rock this shirt. But this is gonna be the look.

And last but not least. Oh, this thing, this totem carry thing. Look on Instagram for it. Look for totem carry. These things are at least. I don't even remember the price, but they are so well put together. It's by an African American male who makes these bags.

They're kind of a big deal, kind of expensive. Thrifted, this thing never worn before. Inside pocket. This is a large and it fits me well. And this was thrifted. Oh, this polo was thrifted too. These pink pants are from Fashion Nova.

This entire ensemble right here with this good split, baby. These are both from Akira. I got this shirt for 15, and then this had to have skirt was for 15 during their end of year sale. And they had a sale the other day last Saturday, 50 off of their already marked down stuff. So I know I wasn't supposed to buy none, but I had to buy. I did. I did. I'm just gonna leave it at that. I did.

Another thing that I'm going to wear this for my week. This. This is a halter. It's gold.

And it goes over your shoulder like that.

And it has the. You know, it's a. It's a bodysuit.

And I'm going to wear it with one of these shirts. Not sure which one, but I'll show you what. What my thought process is in my head. You know, one thing that I'm learning is the difference between putting clothes on and styling clothes. You can wear clothes or you can style them. Wearing something is just taking something exactly as it is and putting it on, not adding or taking away anything from it. Styling clothes is actually thinking about what you're putting on and making it a full ensemble like so this may be it.

This shirt or I have, which probably will look better. I'm not sure. I'm gonna have to check it. But this button down shirt. So either way I'm gonna have on a white shirt. Let me just try it.

I'm have this white shirt.

With the button down.

This button down bust down number.

Baby. You talk about somebody being creative with some clothes. The funny part is I already had this stuff. It's just been sitting in my closet. So I need to do something with it now. I don't know how this is going to come out with this.

With this pocket right here. I really need a shirt with no pocket. But that's the look with these jeans and these jeans. Let me pull them all the way out for you. They are some wide leg jeans.

With a hole in the front. So this is gonna kind of be a street look for me.

With that.

And then I'm gonna put this good jacket over this. So you may not even be able to see that good pocket on the side.

And I'm gonna push the little sleeves up because my sleeves are white on the inside. So they're black and white.

Pop my collar and yep, yep, yep. You'll be able to see this little gold under there.

And it's gonna go like that.

All right. Can y' all see the vision? A little bit. And then.

Did I bring my shoes down?

I have some gold pumps. I don't see them. I always forget a pair of goddamn shoes. But I have some gold pumps that I'm aware with some socks. I've been looking at that gold with socks look. Ask me why that's so intriguing to me, but it is. So I'm wearing some pumps with some socks. You ain't gonna be able to see them real good because of the way these pants envelope my foot. But yeah, that's gonna be the look.

And I might decide not to wear this white shirt. I don't know. It depends on the weather.

Don't know. But I'll let you definitely see the final look to that.

And dang, I always be forgetting a pair of shoes because the shoes are gold like that. And so that's what's gonna bring that whole thing together. Here I go, pulling these pants up again.

All right, so that's my numbers. These are my numbers for this week. I have 1, 2, 3, 4 outfits.

I figured I don't go that many places, so all four of them probably won't get worn. Probably two. I know two. Well, you Know what? I have a couple of closings this week, so they might. They might. So we'll see. I'll let you know what I have, what I wear, what I don't wear. Stay tuned. Again, subscribe to my Instagram channel because that is where Instagram and TikTok. That's what I'm going to be showcasing the clothes. You can see the final looks with them on. I'm trying. Work with me because I'm still working on this editing software. I just don't have time to play with it.

So, yeah, it ain't perfect, but it's mine. Another thing that I want to keep you updated with. I have about 18,000 plus subscribers on YouTube. Join me on YouTube. I'm going in another direction with my channel and just with my. With me in general. I'm going to start teaching people how to make money doing what they love to do. Now, this doesn't have anything to do with that. This is just me and my love of clothes and me really being accountable. Wearing what's in my closet versus buying new stuff had not all the way worked yet. I'm wearing my clothes, but I'm still buying. So I'm working on that.

But it is getting me to wear my clothes. I also talked to a boutique owner and I think I'm about to start doing some lives and start doing some videos with her going and trying on clothes and just being kind of their spokesperson because she has. Oh, my God. Amazing. Everything in that boutique is my style. It. It gives rich, bish energy. Hello. So I love it. And I'm gonna go in there, fix up my hair, put on a little, you know, you know, and go in there and style the clothes and just have fun. This part is just TJ having fun. That's it. What are you doing? What's in your closet? What are all of these clothes that you just don't wear it every time you get ready to go somewhere, honey, you don't have nothing to wear. I promise you. Just this little bit of me figuring out what I'm gonna wear is actually helping me to wear my clothes. I pick it out for the week. It's here for you to see. I wear it during the week and then I ain't scrambling trying to figure out when the heck I'm gonna wear at the last minute. That gives me anxiety and makes me wear the exact same outfit every time. So even though I need to add a little bit to that, I need to go on and.

Integrate the whole look. I need to integrate the Jewelry, the shoes, everything needs to be here. I don't need to look for nothing when I put this stuff together. However, when I put it together, I'm actually trying different things. And I don't feel like putting on all these clothes all the time. So this don't have to be enough. And I'm going to put together what shoes I think I'm going to wear with it and then go from there, which I think. I think that's a pretty dope idea. I will post what I wore again later on on Instagram. But let me know in the comments what you think of my outfits. Let me know what you think of. You know, do you like putting on clothes? What are your favorite boutiques? I'm in Houston, so when y' all see these good boutiques, baby, it's gonna be cold. I know. I'm bringing some business to this one because they have some super duper nice stuff. And it's in river ropes, not very expensive. And it's real hidden, like it's a secret gym. You hear me? So, yeah, I'm excited about it. All right, let me know in the comments what you think. This is it. Thank y' all for coming. I appreciate it. Let me see who I have over here. Hey, Cindy, how are you? You see my co host, the dog notary giant. How are you? Hey, Janice.

I'm glad y' all showed up.

Yay, yay, yay. Okay, yeah, my, he finally sat his butt down. But baby, he be in the mix the whole time. So. Yeah, I'm gonna put my purses and everything with this and we'll see how it goes. All right, see y' all next time. I have another meeting at 6:30 30, so I'm not going to hold y'. All. If y' all have any questions or comments for me, please don't hesitate.

Please don't hesitate to ask on the stream. All right, God bless y'. All. Take care. Bye.
