Hello friends
and welcome to another video
This week I'm gonna be dressing like seven
different Youtubers
Now, as you guys may know,
I've done a few seven day outfit challenges in the past
Like dressing in different outfits that represent my
zodiac sign for a week,
dressing like different store mannequins for a week,
and even dressing like my boyfriend Tyler for a week
and I thought it would be fun
to try another one of these style challenges
but this time with the styles of other Youtubers
Just to see what it would be like to retire
my bat wings for a time
and try on some other Youtuber 'fits.
So I decided to do some investigative research
a nice way of saying
intense internet stalking
to see if I could come up with
seven outfits that capture the trademark
looks of these Youtubers
without one: just wearing their merch
or two: asking them for advice
None of them know I'm doing this
and I hope they're not mad.
Now, a couple of other prefaces
This isn't just a list of my favorite Youtubers
or the only Youtubers I like
Though I will say I do watch and enjoy
all of the following people's videos
so no shade to them
Or to anyone for that matter.
As a general rule, I chose Youtubers
that I think present a distinct, personal style
that I could replicate. So with that,
let's get to dressing like other Youtubers for a week
So for our first Youtuber outfit,
we went with Simply Nailogical
aka Cristine Rotenburg
HOLO
Tyler: (wheeze)
So Cristine's channel started off focused on nail art tutorials
and though she still does do those occasionally,
she's also branched out to a wider range of topics
including banana hacks
and spreading the message of "holosexuality"
aka becoming aroused by holographic stuff.
Cristine: "it's holo biiitch"
For this outfit I repped Christine's home and native land, Canada, pretty hard.
Tyler: Act Canadian.
Oh I'm Sooorry
Tyler: That's your Canadian impersonation?
That's my best Canadian impersonation.
Tyler: Very Apologetic.
Apologetic with an accent
With a sweatsuit and shirt from the Canadian brand, Roots
Which is a favorite of hers as you can see on her instagram and in many of her videos
I'M JUST A SENTIMENTAL SOCK, please, Roots give me a brand deal
Overall, it seems that Cristine favors comfy wear with long sleeves, long pants. And when she retreats fully into the hood of her sweatshirt
She calls herself a sock
Cristine: "I'm just a sock!"
Tyler: You look like foreskin
This is a different iteration of Sockfiya
It's Cristine Sockenburg
As for the shoes, we needed some item of holographic clothing
and I find that besides her nails
Cristine's feet are where she most often expresses her holosexual zeal
Cristine has like black adidas superstars that have holo stripes, we couldn't find those but these are more holo, so...
As I show off my nonpainted nails
In terms of accessories aside from her love of holo and socks
Cristine also loves tea and not just the metaphorical kind
So I feel like while I'm dressed as Cristine
Oh yeah
And her boyfriend Ben, brings it to her at seemingly any hour of the day
Cristine: BEYYN. BEYYN. Is that my tea?
BEYYN. Is that you?
Tyler?
Tyler: What?
Where's my tea?
(haha) Why did I sound like Cookie Monster when I tried to do that?
Tyler: Does Cristine sound like Cookie Monster?
I think there's also a hint of Yoda in my "Cristine asking for tea" voice
Tyler. Tyler?
Tyler: Alright, Imma spare the audience from hearing that anymore let's go get the tea
Tyler
So tea in hand and larynx thoroughly gargled,
the only thing we were missing to complete our transformation into Cristine
was a cat as lovingly harassed as her cat Menchie is
Crusty gang. Crusty gang. Crusty gang. Crusty gang.
Did I do it right?
Listen up Menchie,
I don't know if you're ready for this,
but, Crusty is coming for your whiskers.
So for my next outfit,
I dressed up like Casey Niestat.
So Casey Niestat is a daily vlogger from New York City,
who's often seen bouncing around the streets of Manhattan
either on one of his morning runs, or cruising on an electric skateboard.
Hey! Someone took my board!
He's also known for his signature camera work,
scenic time lapses, and montages.
How much do you think I need to film for it to be enough for a time lapse?
So for his outfit, I chose a black suit with a skinny tie, and Vans sneakers.
I would say that Casey appears very frequently in suits and tuxes.
He used to wear them more for special events, earlier on
but now a days, he's wearing suits a lot.
So, I'm in a suit. Tyler: Yeah!
Safiya: And there's a plane by overhead.
How expensive is your most expensive seat?
And of course, it wouldn't be a Casey Niestat outfit without his custom sunglasses.
Which he's almost always wearing, rain or shine.
The reason that Casey says that he wears these sunglasses all the time,
is because he doesn't like looking into the lens or the viewfinder and getting cross-eyed
which I completely understand, because that happens to me all the time
so I actually like the sunglasses approach.
We made our pair by replicating the instructions in our tutorials.
Basically, you take some sunglasses, put painter's tape over the back lenses,
spray them down in primer, and then scrape it off in a haphazard manner with a popsicle stick.
I haven't taken the painter's tape off yet so I can't see anything.
Tyler: They look good though!
Safiya: They smell even better.
Tyler: They smell toxic.
Safiya: Ooo, yeah.
Safiya: Casey's hair is also a pretty signature part of his style
so there's absolutely no way I can actually replicate Casey's hair,
because he has naturally curly hair, or at least I assume that he does
and my hair is much longer and straight.
But he did have a man-bun phase.
So I'm gonna go for like, a crunchy bun.
This is Aqua Net hairspray which I still have from our 1987 video.
I don't think he actually uses Aqua Net hairspray, but I thought it would give my hair that kind of crunchy looking effect.
Did you just spray one spot?
Though I would say that the hair and sunglasses
are pretty consistent elements of Casey's style
Casey doesn't always wear a suit, obviously
He has a more casual office look
and also an active running look
Safiya: 7 minute mile is pretty good for me
Tyler: (hahaha) You've never ran a 7 minute mile
Safiya: In high school I ran a 7:49
Tyler: Get the f*ck out of here
Safiya: And occasionally, he wears a Youtube varsity jacket and snowpants
and gets dragged around in the middle of a blizzard
to the tune of Frank Sinatra's "New York, New York"
Start spreading the news
I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it, New York
Now I did this for quite a while
longer than I'm proud of
Tyler: Are we getting hit by a car? (laughs)
Tyler: I'm presuming you're going to heavily reference this video, right?
No. I'm gonna give no visual aids whatsoever
If you don't know the reference, get out
Though for Casey, I think it was more of a one-time thing
but I just couldn't help myself, I like Frank Sinatra
So for my next outfit
I dressed like LaurDIY
aka Lauren Riihimaki
I can't tell you for sure that that's how you pronounce her name
but you know, we're both part of the "hard to pronounce" club
so I feel like I get a little pass
As her name implies,
Laur does a lot of DIY crafts and hacks on her channel
And besides tutorials
She also posts DIY battles, an occasional music videos
such as the rap song "DIY Queen"
and weekly vlogs
which often times feature her boyfriend Alex Wasabi
Together, they have been dubbed "Laurex"
Tyler: Hey, Saf Safiya: Yes?
Tyler: What would our, like, uhhh.... Safiya-Tyler name conjunction be?
Safiya: Safty
Tyler: What about Safler. Safty?
Safiya: Like a little flaccid
Safiya: Filer?
Tyler: Filer! (hahaha)
So all the names are creepy
Lauren does experiment with her style a fair amount
But I would say that high-waisted jean shorts, crop tops, and midriff-tied flannels
are some key elements that she often returns to
Tyler: Yeah.
Safiya: So I'm just, I'm fidgeting
Tyler: Yeah, I feel like the midriff is a big focal point of this outfit
Safiya: So for this look
I went for a pair of black jean shorts
a striped halter top
a red flannel
a black bomber jacket worn around the elbows
white sneakers
and a pair of aviator sunglasses
Tyler: that's not very DIY Queen of you
Safiya: I'm DIY, uh, nose-picking
Laur does a few different things with her hair
But I chose this sort-of half-up baby top bun
which I clearly didn't execute very well
because it kept flopping around
Tyler: It's like an acorn
Maybe it could've used some of that Casey AquaNet
Because I kept having to redo it
Tyler: Kind of yeah. It's more scraggly. But it's more erect
It's not a "Safty"?
Tyler: No
(Evil witch laugh)
So for our LaurDAY
Get it? Day
We decided to try and recreate one of her DIYs
which required a little trip to the crafts store
Tyler: I feel like with the amount you like to eat stuff, I think you would die as a DIY-er
Though I'm not a big crafter, I do like stores
I found some googly eyes
I'm gonna go home and put googly eyes on all my plants
The craft we took on was a DIY galaxy phone case
made by painting a plain black phone case with nail polish
and buffing it in with a sponge stick
That doesn't look so bad! We gotta buff it like Lauren
though I wouldn't rate myself very high on the DIY scale
This craft didn't actually take very long
and I think it came out looking pretty "dern" good
It's kinda cute
Is it v cute? That's a high compliment Tyler
Overall, I would say it was a pretty productive day
I'm not sure I'm good enough at DIYs to be a DIY queen
But I could be, like, a DIY rook
So for our fourth Youtuber outfit
we went for Trisha Paytas.
I'm ready to mukbang Tyler: I am, too, I'm hungry
Trisha's channel is pretty much a mix of a few different formats
She does mukbangs, storytimes, vlogs, and music videos
Tyler: How many Trisha songs can you sing along to?
The only one I really know is "Thiccc girls are a boy's best friend"
But I would say that Trisha's glitzy, bold style is pretty iconic
This look, specifically, is a recreation of an outfit
that she wore on her Instagram earlier this year
as well as when she was caught by the paparazzi with Ryland Adams
It also touches on some signature elements of Trisha's style
Pink. Lace. Shiny. Comfortable. Gucci.
Or are they Versace?
Either way, hers are real and these are fake from Amazon Prime
In general, I would say that Trisha's outfits swing between
very casual and very glam
And we chose this look in particular, because it's kind of both
I also chose this outfit because I recognized the pants.
As we had bought literally the exact same pair in olive green
earlier last year to maybe make a video with, but we never did
Why couldn't I have bought them in pink
then I already would've owned these
So for our day dressed as Trisha
We thought it was only appropriate for us to experience
our first mukbang
So we decided we would take on a McNugget McMukbang
ala Trisha and Shane
What sauce do you want? Sweet and Sour Sweet and Sour, please
Alright, so we got 40 chicken McNuggets,
a large Diet coke and a medium fries.
Is this a business expense?
Definitely (Stuttering from Tyler)
And after receiving them, we took them home, plopped on the floor, and began to eat
So I just got all this stuff and then I've got, like, a giant thing of ketchup, too
Cheers to the mukbang
Hell yeah
Oh that's good.
Overall, I think I'm actually into mukbangs
So far this is fun
This is 1 of 4 boxes though
I have only eaten 1 chicken McNugget so far
And though I don't think I can scarf them like I used to as a kid,
The nuggets were pretty darn good
I feel like I'm having flashbacks to the last time I've had chicken McNuggets from Mickey D's
Just like *boom*
I know I'm like-- I'm 12
I'm smelling the plastic of the play place
There was always that one kid
That went into the play place like without underwear on
for some reason. Really?
Or you'd be like climbing up the thing and look up and be like: *Scarred Safiya
That chick's commando
That's traumatizing
It was
It was *Tyler repeats FOR NO REASON*
So dressing like Trisha plus mukbang A-check!
So for our next outfit
I went for, a superwoman
aka Lilly Singh-inspired look
What up everyone it's your girl Safiya
Good thing my name starts with an "S" so I can do this finger-thing, huh?
I don't think you're doing it right; that's a Z
What up everyone it's your girl Zafiya
Ah, okay
Safiya
There you go!
Zafiya
Okay now you just go between them
So Superwoman's channel primarily features
scripted comedy videos
sometimes showcasing mainstream celebrities
and also her rapping talent
And amongst her large portfolio of videos
is her series of her parents reacting to pop culture moments
We found a little less evidence of Lilly's
full outfits on her Youtube channel itself
where she's often in character
and you actually rarely see her bottom half
But we did find a lot of photos
of her looks on Instagram
I feel like Lilly has a pretty varied style
Though I would say her outfits usually fall
into three categories
Red Carpet Lilly
Bawse/Office Lilly
and sort of a Canadian casual Lilly
which is what I'm taking on today
This outfit, specifically, includes
distressed jeans, which actually do
make the rare leg appearance on her channel
chunky Timberland boots
and an acid-wash denim jacket
worn casually around the elbows
I think that one thing about Lilly's style
and some of the elements of this outfit capture it
is that she's definitely marinated in a little swaggu
Yeah, it's kinda like
my jacket's not really on
but I don't care
I'm also sporting a Toronto vintage Raptors jersey
This outfit is brought to you by the Toronto Raptors
And the Raptors brought to you by Drake
Yes, as I insinuated
Lilly is Canadian
as well as sort of like a Raptors super fan
and she can often be seen at their games
wearing an assortment of their merch
This jersey in particular is a Vince Carter jersey
and Vince Carter is a very prominent player
for the Toronto Raptors Was *Tyler corrects*
Was a very prominent player
He was cousins with Tracy McGrady
He was a cousin of Tracy McGrady
Well, he is a cousin of Tracy McGrady
He still is. One more.
Uh, he went to UNC (Tyler is just a "sport encyclopedia")
He went to UNC
Number 3 overall pick (Why....)
So he's not even Canadian? *genuinely surprised* No
Does Drake know?
As we mentioned, Lilly can also be seen
dressing up like her parents in her videos
who have pretty iconic looks of their own at this point
Coincidentally
I also have an Indian mother to dress up like
who in all likelihood
would also be shocked by Nicki Minaj
What? Safiya!
Lilly! Lilly! Lilly!
My dad, however, is Danish
and I would honestly be very surprised
if he had any opinion of Nicki Minaj at all
Why is it so loud?
We're watching Nicki Minaj Quiet
What's up with your hair? Quiet, quiet, quiet
(hahaha) what else can you say?
So next up for my penultimate outfit
I took on Jenna Marbles
aka Jenna Mourey
My name is Safiya I'm 26 years old and I have a basketball game tomorrow
Tomorrow's Thursday
There's nothing wrong with Thursday
you can have a basketball game on a Thursday I guess you're right
So Jenna has been on Youtube for quite a while
and over time, her channel has evolved
from shorter comedy videos
to longer, unscripted videos about her dogs,
her boyfriend Julian, life, makeup,
and the trials and tribulations of her eyebrows
Oh yes, and the basketball thing.
Amongst the many memes of Jenna Marbles,
I believe at some point last year
she began imitating a Vine about a boy named Trey
My name is Trey I have a basketball game tomorrow
It's unclear if her basketball game ever arrives
but she's brought it up many times
Hi my name's Jenna I'm 30 I have a hamster and I have a basketball game tomorrow
Hey guys
it's me
I have a basketball game tomorrow
Anyway. I would say Jenna's style in general
is pretty laid back and layered
and we get a good sense of how layered
she is in her podcasts
as she seems to be gradually turning into a human blanket
which is a good vibe, overall
but for the middle of July in Los Angeles, it was a little tough.
it's so hot! It's toasty
I'm hot
2008 hot. Ba-dum-tsss hahahaha
As for this outfit, it includes
a black Twitch t-shirt
which is often repped by both Jenna and Julian,
a black hoodie
and blue and white flannel tied around the waist,
black leggings,
and black fuzzy slides.
Now there are only two examples of her fuzzy slides that we could find
But the one time that I met Jenna at Vidcon in 2017,
she was wearing similar fluffy sandals
So I can only assume she wears them all the time
Jenna also often wears a "Neat Dude" beanie
At first I actually thought this was her merch.... it turns out it's not
and almost always wears a dark black plastic tattoo choker
She's also usually surrounded by her dogs
Now we don't have any dogs
but we do have a cat
Yyyeahhh, we do
So Jenna's dog Kermit has a thing for Irish spring soap
But when we presented our cat Crusty
with a few bars of this stuff
he seemed thoroughly unimpressed
Immediate dismissal
But like Jenna's dogs,
he didn't seem to like being put in a costume either
now to finish off our day as Jenna Marbles,
I decided to do the unthinkable
and play tomorrow's basketball game today
This should suffice for my basketball game
look at how many there are There are a lot *Tyler agrees, unenthusiastically*
So I warmed up with some dunking
Is this regulation?
Sure
No way, that looks really high
Or at least dunk attempts
What can I say? I've got hops
Now I never said I was good at basketball
In fact I don't think I've touched one since my sophomore year of high school
But I will say, I made a lot more shots than I thought I would
Catch ya on the flip side!
I didn't make any over my shoulder, though
Catch ya on the flip side!
*Tyler wheezes* (Are you okay?)
Alright, I'm gonna quit while I'm ahead
Ahead?
I'm not sure Jenna would be proud of me
but maybe we'll see her at the game tomorrow
and we can ask her then
and finally, for our last Youtuber outfit
we chose the King of Trash, Shane Dawson
Me.
Now Shane has been posting on Youtube for like 10 years
and both his video style
and his personal style
have changed a lot in that time.
Currently, he's been producing a lot of long-form investigative videos
Often times in multi-installment series
with a healthy speckling of his classic conspiracy theory videos
Now I'm not exactly sure
where the Shane referring to himself as trash
meme began.
(sings) I'm not a girl, I'm just a trash bag
But I thought we couldn't wear his outfit
and not go on the search for some garbage
The top won't open
Ugh, me
Oh, hello
That's you after a few drinks
I guess in a sense
Shane wears trash cans
though more often he kind of resides inside of them
I've got it
I'm gonna do a three-part series
on luxury trash cans
TanaCon?
*more wheezing*
But besides trash cans
Me.
I would say Shane's style is pretty simple
and can be defined as a shirt
That is to say
he tends to find one shirt that he likes
and wears it for extended periods of time
Currently his shirt du jour
Or i guess du on
Is his "Oh my God" pig merch shirt
which I paired with black jeans
and black running shoes
And if you hadn't noticed, we're also at Taco Bell
Hey, look, I'm here
Now I tried to avoid
just wearing people's merch as their outfits
but with Shane, I was left with no option
Ooooo, that's their new merch photos
put me on Amazon, Shane
just put me right there
From what I can tell,
the only exception to this one shirt rule
is his conspiracy theory shirt
which is kind of like the shirt I'm wearing here
but this is just a dupe
Because Shane's actual t-shirt was very difficult to track down
So difficult, in fact,
it was almost like it didn't exist
so when looking for Shane's actual conspiracy theory shirt
I found two clues.
One was a listing on the website The Hunt
which linked Shane's conspiracy theory shirt
to a Poshmark listing
for an American Eagle Tribal printed Baseball t-shirt
But when I went to buy it
it was sold out
The second clue is the first appearance of the shirt
on Shane's channel
From what I can tell,
this shirt was first featured in the thumbnail
for a video called "Reading Dirty DMs From Fans"
published on January 29th, 2015
Now to try and find the thread to connect these two clues together
I tried to look for images
from the American Eagle 2015 catalogue
But the only image I could find
was this one
of their showroom in October of 2014
Now there's no sign of Shane's shirt here
But if you look closely at this hoodie
There is a similar horizontal tribal print
So it was probably an American Eagle t-shirt
that Shane bought in late 2014 or early 2015
and I may have overreached a little bit
A lot
But, hey
that's just a theory
sorry, wrong Youtuber
Okay,
so those were my seven Youtuber outfits
I really enjoyed trying to piece together these looks
especially the ones that were really far away from my own everyday style
and it was fun kind of
vlogging a day in the life of some of my favorite channels
I'm sorry if I permanently ruined Frank Sinatra for anyone
I'm not sure that this experiment
says a lot about how Youtubers dress in general
Because if I had chosen a few different creators
I could've easily ended up in all Gucci
which would've been not only different
but also very expensive
But overall,
I would say that most of these
Youtuber outfits
were pretty casual and pretty layered
Even if they did have their own
unique or glamorous flairs
with the exception of Casey
who's outfit was pretty dressed up
But that might be a New York versus LA thing
Although I guess Cristine
does live in Ottowa
so we'll just leave her up there for now
