- Let me see how these look.
Very, dad, you think this'll work?
- [Andrew] Can we not put my clothes as a hat?
(Lynn laughs)
I'm Andrew,
I'm the dad to a beautiful eight year old named Lynn.
I live in LA, she's out in Phoenix.
So every other weekend,
I'm driving out there or flying out there to see her.
I thought it would be cool, when I go back out there,
to do some things that are a little bit out of the ordinary.
We did the makeup challenge before
and I wanted to try something new.
So this time, I let her style me for a week.
(upbeat music)
I feel like I'm very stylish.
I'm pretty trendy.
I subscribed to GQ.
You know, I'm in the in crowd.
(Andrew laughs)
I was a little nervous letting her style me.
She now has an opinion about clothes.
I don't know what that's gonna translate for me.
So for the first two days,
I let her pick things out of the suitcase.
For the next three, I let her pick it off of Amazon.
I didn't know where this was gonna go.
(upbeat music)
What are we doing?
Day number one.
- Um.
- Arizona is a desert.
It's always hot so, my suitcase is pretty basic.
- You never feel like (Lynn mumbles).
- [Andrew] Some jeans, some T shirts,
and that's pretty much it.
So she didn't have a ton of options,
but I let her kind of go through and pick it out.
- Hmm, this is pretty cool.
- Lynn really built up the suspense
when she opened my suitcase, but she took her time.
She really combed through everything.
She laid out shirts to see which one would go together,
and things like that.
- I think I'm gonna go with this one.
Spider man!
- [Andrew] All right, that's fine.
That red shirt and those jeans?
- Yes.
- For the first day, it was very straightforward.
It was red tee shirt, blue jeans.
I had some sneakers already packed,
so it was a pretty cool outfit.
She knocked it out the park.
I'm on board.
Day one is going good so far.
Since she did the first outfit so well,
we then go to the mall.
You excited?
- Yeah.
- What store should we go to?
(tape rewinds)
(crickets chirp)
Game time decision, alright,
we'll see when we get there.
As we were walking to the mall, I was kind of getting a,
a temperature of her.
For the record, I wanna know that this little girl,
who dresses herself,
is gonna be the one styling me for a week.
So do you think she has style?
I don't know.
- Excuse me?
- [Andrew] I don't know.
Do you have style?
(Andrew laughs)
How'd you think you did?
I think I did amazing.
- You think you did amazing?
- Yeah.
- Weren't you the same one who was quitting
in the middle of the store?
You didn't want to go anymore?
- It gets boring at a point!
- It gets boring after a point?
- Well I also got this amazing NASA shirt so, amazing.
- She was supposed to style something for me
and she ended up going shopping.
- But that was after I shopped for him.
- Okay.
I was nervous when she,
when she showed me the outfit pick.
It's not anything I would ever look at,
anything I would ever buy.
But, I didn't wanna cheat with the challenge
so I just swallowed my pride and went to the cash register.
Home from the shop.
We got a bunch of bags.
Was about to add me some yellow parachute pants,
but luckily they didn't have the size.
So I avoided that bullet.
- They were good!
- Those were not good pants.
Those pants were terrible.
- I think I did amazing.
- You think your outfit's gonna be really, really nice?
- Yeah.
- I would say, you pick good clothes.
- Just like a bunch of clothes that I picked,
but he was like, I already have these clothes,
I was like--
- Like literally,
the same pants, the same jeans, everything.
Okay, day two.
- Day two.
- [Andrew] What are you thinking?
You did good job day one.
Day two had me a little nervous.
The first time she opened my suitcase,
she went right to the jeans,
the T shirts, and put it together, one, two, three.
(Lynn gasps)
This time...
- This one!
- I was not excited.
- I love this one.
- [Andrew] Those are swim trunks.
- Whatever, I love this one.
- I blamed myself for bringing the swim trunks.
It wasn't even that hot, I didn't even go swimming.
I could have just left those at home.
You got me there, Lynn, you got me.
Sometimes I go to Phoenix, it's a hundred degrees.
So I have swim trunks.
Sometimes I go to Phoenix, it's 60 degrees.
So I have a hoodie.
- This one!
- [Andrew] This one.
(Andrew laughs)
Okay.
She thought it would be a good idea
to put those two things together.
- Hmm, hmm?
- [Andrew] Are you mad at me?
Why (laughs), what's up with this outfit?
- It looks good.
- I had so many jeans, so many T shirts,
and she skipped through all of them
to get the two extreme things and put those together.
And this is me in the Arizona heat wearing swim trunks,
and Vans, and a sweatshirt.
It's, yeah.
So on day two, before I left,
I had to make sure that she could style the other three days
when I'm not in there
and she's not able to access my suitcase.
I wanted to keep it pretty tamable
so I booted up Amazon for her,
I kept her in that 20 to 30 range and it was very,
very nerve wracking.
What are you thinking so far?
- I don't know.
I really like this lined outfit that's 20 dollars.
(Andrew exhales)
Hmm.
- We could be pondering that.
I was thinking of all worst case scenarios.
- Wow! - [Andrew] I swear,
kids know technology better than we do, these days.
It was surprising how quickly she picked up Amazon.
So I might've shot myself in the foot there.
(Andrew laughs)
Thanks to Amazon Prime and one-click shopping,
she was able to add it to cart, deliver it,
have it sent to me.
- Okay, I think I'm done.
- [Andrew] You think you're done?
You got it. - Yeah.
- [Andrew] So you have two days worth of clothes?
- Yeah.
- [Andrew] Alright, can I see it?
- No. (laptop closes)
- [Andrew] It's truly amazing
that she can buy a whole outfit on Amazon for 30 bucks.
I don't know what I'm gonna get in the mail,
but I was sitting on pins and needles,
waiting for those shipments to come in.
Why are you smiling so much?
- I don't know.
- [Andrew] So, onto day three.
I'm wearing the first outfit that Lynn picked out, today.
It's a bit bright.
I was wearing the outfit that she chose at the mall
and that was the green casual slacks and the yellow T shirt
with the pink, purple emblem in the middle.
I guess Lynn was attracted to this because of the red
and the yellow, she really likes colors.
The pants didn't really fit me right.
They were a bit droopy.
I think the shirt was long, but it wasn't tight.
I felt like I was kinda almost flopping around a little bit.
I mean, it's not a terrible outfit.
It's different, it's a little bit out of my wheelhouse.
We're gonna see what sneakers
I can throw together with this and put an outfit together.
It was definitely adjustment.
Getting to work, I was a little nervous.
I had this bright yellow shirt, these puffy green pants,
and I was expecting people to drop their coffees
and turn and look.
(laughs) But ultimately, it was good.
The reception to the outfit was nice.
- I like the outfit, I like the shirt, summer forever.
It's a great thing.
I talked to one of my coworkers and they told me I had a,
a youthful energy to me.
- It kinda looks like you just came from, like, a concert.
You know? - Okay, okay.
- Or, you're a camp counselor.
(Andrew and Jada laugh)
- I guess yellow and green is an interesting pairing.
But I feel like the color combo is a little camp counselor.
(Andrew laughs)
- [Jada] Thank you!
- And a couple of people said they couldn't tell
that I was styled by eight year old, so that was a win too.
- Aw, that's cute. - [Andrew] She styled me
for this video.
- She did a great job. (Andrew laughs)
She did a great job, she is a talent and a rising star.
- Alright, glowing recommendations all around.
So far, so good.
So I FaceTimed Lynn right before she went to bed
and she was just smiling.
She was kind of proud of herself.
And her mom was in the background, being like,
oh, that's a nice shirt, good job, Lynn!
That gave me assurance
because I felt like Lynn is doing a good job.
And maybe I could get through this challenge okay.
Day four, the first Amazon package came
and this was interesting to say the least.
Yeah, so for the next outfit, we have boom,
dadacorn shirt, it's pretty dope.
It looks like something an eight year old would pick out
so, I'm not wholly surprised.
I think it looks good, though.
It was cute, it was cute.
She likes unicorns, dadacorn.
I'll be a daddy unicorn for my daughter.
This is fine, this is fine.
She bought it also with these black jeans,
they're pretty simple, stretch jeans, nothing crazy.
It's an all black outfit and I wear all black a lot.
I have a bunch of sneakers.
The dadacorn shirt is a bit cheesy, it's corny,
but being a dad is corny sometimes
and I'll play my part when I have to.
I was nervous wearing it into the office
because it was one of those kinds of novelty T shirts,
every shirt is an XL type of deal,
but I wore it proudly.
What do you think about my outfit?
It was styled by my eight year old daughter.
- You look great, she did a good job.
- [Andrew] Did it look like an eight year old styled it?
- No.
Like, like had you not told me that,
I wouldn't have thought so.
- [Andrew] Boom.
So I got through most of the day,
a lot of my coworkers kind of gave me the aw
and they were treating me awesome.
And then I run into Lea and Destiny.
- I love the unicorn shirt. - It's so cute!
- It's so cute!
- Thank you.
- Is that supposed to be you, the big unicorn?
- I guess.
- You're not buff enough to be that unicorn.
- Thanks for that, thank you.
I feel like I am buff, I work out.
(Destiny laughs)
I'm not, I mean, I work out, I work out, but I'm not,
you know.
- Okay.
- Okay, dadacorn.
- On brand with the dad brand.
(Andrew laughs) 'Cause you're a dad.
- (laughs) On brand with the dad brand.
(Andrew laughs)
So day four wrapped up without a hitch
and the package arrived for day five
and I wasn't ready for it.
This is the last one,
so let's open up this bad boy.
Let's see.
What...
(Andrew laughs)
Yo, she's not serious.
Wow.
We were doing so well.
This is why you can't give kids leeway,
and you shouldn't teach them how to use Amazon.
Yeah, so.
Great job, Lynn.
You shouldn't open that laptop back up.
Yes, a taco costume.
I guess after the unicorn shirt,
she was in the novelty costume section
and somehow, I ended up with a taco.
It was a curve ball I was not prepared to hit.
I had to walk out with a taco
and it's funny 'cause I was actually getting a ride that day
from my roommate.
On my way to work,
hanging out with my favorite, my right hand, man,
my favorite guy, my roommate, Josh.
He can't even talk, he just like, hides his head in shame.
So I was already feeling judged
and I haven't even gotten out my front door yet.
So I just knew that this day was gonna be,
it was gonna be a long one.
- [Man] Hey bro, that's cute.
This father daughter relationship, I'm all for it.
- Fun fact,
when you have a taco costume,
everybody wants to talk to you.
- [Man] Oh, it's a taco!
(man laughs)
- You know what?
I would absolutely rock a taco costume
because I support tacos.
(Troy laughs)
Team taco!
- [Andrew] Team taco?
Thinking back, I don't know how we went from black shirt,
black jeans to taco costume.
In two clicks, you can change your Amazon life.
Alright, picked up my baby, fresh up out of school.
How're you feeling?
- Good!
- What did you think about the outfits?
- The taco one was amazing because it was very, very silly
and you know me, I like silly.
(Andrew laughs)
And the dadacorn, that was just amazing.
It's dad plus unicorn, I mean like, how could you not?
- How could you not?
I would definitely recommend that every parent
lets their kids style them at least once.
You might find some new combinations,
they might add some new color,
or you might end up in a costume, who knows?
Dads come in all shapes and sizes.
We do a lot of crazy things.
If my new way of connecting
is me looking like an idiot for my daughter,
I'm here for it,
I'll do it again,
I'll sign up a hundred percent of the time.
Love you, Lynn.
(tranquil music)
- I have an idea, maybe you could style me for a week.
- If I could style you for a week?
- Uh huh, Makeup included.
