[Kelsey sighs]
- Nothing like unbranded water.
Keeps you humble.
It's fresh.
Cheers, baby.
What's up, you guys?
I'm Kelsey Plum, and these are my 10 essentials.
[upbeat music]
So this right here is obviously, it's gorgeous
it's a GSTQ Blazer.
GSTQ is God Save the Queen,
a clothing line with Dany Garcia.
I'm fortunate enough to be an ambassador with them.
We all know like women that are working, we put on a blazer
maybe we're at a photo shoot here, something,
then we go to a meeting, then we get on a plane,
we go to a dinner.
It's versatile.
It's something you can wear in all different facets.
It's cute, it's chic.
It's definitely like a staple in the wardrobe.
And the whole point is Dany makes
clothes for women by women.
So I think there's a little bit more of attention to detail
when it comes to the fit and feeling,
you know sexy and fitting in the right ways.
And so this definitely,
this is a way that, you know, accentuate the curves,
I guess.
My next essential is pretty new.
It's called the SlipSpeed by Under Armour.
I'm really excited about these
'cause you can fold 'em down
and obviously like wear 'em around like slip-ons, right?
And then if you wanna train, which is kinda more my style,
you put 'em up
and then you lock 'em in [clicking tongue]
and you're ready to go.
I mean, who doesn't wanna crank in, you know?
Crank in, crank out.
You know, why not?
And the coolest things about this is put 'em in the bag
wash 'em, you know, 'cause everybody get a little stanky
even if they don't wanna admit it.
So yeah, nah, this is dope colorway,
pretty sweet, pretty comfortable to train in.
So I'm excited about these bad boys.
All right.
My next essential is something really special to me.
So it's the Olympic rings.
My college teammates actually got this for me
after I won gold in Tokyo in 2020.
I wear it pretty much all the time.
I would've worn it with this fit.
It didn't really go with the fit
but it's a proud moment for me in my career.
You know, when I wear this,
I feel like I represent a lot more than myself
and I'm just proud.
Like, we might not all love basketball
or soccer or gymnastics, but when the Olympics comes
there's like a unity involved,
and I think more now more than ever, as unity is needed.
I'm not very sentimental, heart of steel.
No, I'm kidding.
When I did get the necklace, I teared up a little bit.
People went out of their way to just show love
and I love my teammates, wouldn't be here without 'em.
These are some of my favorite.
I don't know if you have heard
it's called the "Little Words Project".
You can get anything you want, like custom made.
I'll go with the first one.
The first one says, "Faith".
I wear this very proudly.
You know, I think in a lot of things
whether you're a spiritual person or not
you have to have faith in your life.
Faith in what you're doing.
Faith in yourself
and faith in the progress you're making every day.
So for me, like I look at this a couple times a day
while I'm training,
while I'm, you know, hanging out with my family.
The other thing that I'm proud to be is a dog.
That's what this bracelet is.
And I think it's just a reminder, you know
to have that dog mentality, to stay hungry,
to stay, you know, true to myself, you know,
regardless of how my world grows,
I'm always gonna keep that.
That's what I was born with and raised with
and that's who I am and will always continue to be.
Gotta talk about the Google phone.
Essential.
You know, I think for me the biggest thing is the picture.
Like, the quality.
It's just different.
If I were to take a selfie right now
it just picks up everything.
That's good and bad.
But-
Okay, here we go.
I'm pretty good?
Google phone is different.
I challenge you to at least just give it a try, you know
try not to be like sheep like everyone else.
Okay, so this is my favorite bag.
It's not like super bougie and that's how I like it.
It's Celine, but it's super easy.
You know, just like put it, put it around head to the mall.
I like to dress a little bit sporty sometimes.
And then I also like to dress up.
I feel I can go with both.
I try to make investments like once a year in a purse.
And so this is my investment this year.
And definitely an essential, definitely worth it.
[package crinkling]
Okay, now we get to like critical things here.
I think I've eaten more macro bars in the last year
than I'd like to say out loud comfortably
because they're so good.
We got protein in there, the healthy fats in there.
Shoot, what do we got?
It's gluten-free, vegan free.
But it's not one of those bars that tastes like,
like tree bark.
Peanut butter, chocolate chip.
This is the flavor.
Are you hungry?
Okay, come on.
What have we got here?
I think that you should take a bite.
- [Producer] Oh yeah. - Yeah, yeah.
[crew members giggling]
Did we hear that?
[Kelsey chuckling]
That's a good rule.
Okay, who doesn't love Chapstick?
I was in Türkiye playing basketball
and I got this in the airport.
It's the best chapstick ever, as you can see.
It's very, very highly used,
but there's like a little bit of color into it,
so it gives a little, you know,
it smells good.
It smells expensive.
So anyways, this is definitely an essential.
Oh yeah, I live in Las Vegas.
If you don't put Chapstick on in the morning
in the afternoon of the night,
you're gonna be looking like SpongeBob out of water.
There's people that have shame
and there's people that don't.
And I don't have any shame.
I'll floss any time of day or night.
It's important obviously.
But these things, I don't know what it is.
There's like a mint flavor, game changer.
Essential, essential.
Like top five essential, you know
I usually break it.
That's how I stop flossing.
So-
Again, I guess we're staying on the faith train.
I read this every morning.
It's like my devotional, just a way to spiritually connect.
It's not too long, it's like maybe,
maybe a couple little paragraphs in there
and I just kind of start my day with it, meditate on it
focus on it, and then kind of go about my day.
I just know that I'm so much of a better human
when I'm grounded in something bigger than myself.
Well, I'm not gonna lie,
sometimes I read the Bible and I'm like,
I don't know what I just read.
So I feel like this is kind of like a bible for dummies.
You know, we're just breaking it down a little bit.
It's in a language that I can understand.
It's super easy to pick up on
and like remember throughout your day.
Thanks for watching.
Again, I'm Kelsey Plum and these were my 10 essentials.
