My Big Sister YouTubers
I watch a lot of YouTube. Sometimes it’s good content, sometimes it’s just mindless videos (both are essential to make up all that is entertainment).
These are three of my favourite content creators who produce inspiring, quality videos and honestly act as some of my biggest role models.
Obligatory disclaimer: I get that their online persona isn’t an accurate reflection of their true selves, that I don’t know them through these videos, that they are humans who can (and do) make mistakes, that they shouldn’t be idolized, etc etc etc. My opinions hereafter are based on their YouTube content, not an assumption of knowing them as people. Also, I’m not trying to clump them together as one stereotype of Asian-American female content creators. They all produce unique content (as I’ll talk about) that appeal to so many things that I personally love, and they also all happen to touch on the Asian-American experience to which I also relate. Okay, moving on.
Anna Akana
youtube
I can’t talk about watching YouTube without mentioning the original icon that is Anna Akana. I’ve been following her videos for at least 6 years now (probably found her through the good ol’ tumblr days) and the style of her content has changed over the years-but then again, so have I. Without a doubt, many aspects of my own personality (comedy, interest in mental health and vulnerability) have been shaped by her influence. I watch her videos and take the messages along with me through life (even unintentionally, down to picking the style of my glasses).
Her videos cover so many things that I resonate with: becoming a better person, dealing with your mental health, building healthy relationships with yourself and others, going through the world as a (mixed) Asian person and as a woman, comedy, quality video production and just trying to express yourself through art. I never feel like my time is wasted watching her videos, and that’s intentional- most of her videos are under 5 minutes long. Of course, this might get me binging multiple videos in one sitting, but the amount of quality information that you get in such a short time prompts you to think about it far longer than the length of the video.
Rowena Tsai
youtube
Rowena’s videos are less about comedy and the entertainment world, instead leaning more on personal development, spirituality, self care and growth—regardless of your personal lifestyle. I’ve been watching her videos for about two years now and I always feel inspired by the calm and reflective aura that they emit. Whenever I’m in a productivity funk, feeling lost in life or out of touch with myself, I love watching her videos to remind myself of the things that matter. She also happens to be a skincare junkie, which is another added bonus to learn more about taking care of myself.
Something unique about her content (to me, in comparison with other things that I watch) is her depth in the “Asian” dimension of being Asian-American. She touches on the dimensions of relationships that she has with her family, the guidance of her spiritual background and other knowledge and resources taken from outside of the Western world. When I watch her videos, it’s not that something is “Taiwanese” and something is “American”—it’s all just part of her experience, with both cultures shaping her views. I always worry in the back of my head, in my own life, whether something is “too Asian” or “too Western”, but seeing others like Rowena embracing both sides without judgment encourages me to do the same.
Ashley (bestdressed)
youtube
Ashley is much younger than the previous two content creators (just a year or two older than myself), making her seem more like a friend than a big sister or mentor. Nevertheless, she has candid wisdom to spit and her experience is far beyond her years. I’ve been watching her on YouTube for probably about a year now and although she began as a fashion channel, I watch primarily just to absorb her passion, dedication to quality work, and experiences going through life in her early 20s. The fashion aspect is also amazing on its own too so although I don’t have that fashion “thimble” (or whatever the equivalent of a “green-thumb” is), I am still entranced to learn more.
Her lessons on life come from personal experience, of which she has plenty—graduating college in two and a half years, moving by herself from small suburban life to Los Angeles, now to NYC, and growing a YouTube channel for years (without her parents even knowing). She emits the energy of someone growing up in today’s age, doing the things that I am often too afraid to do. It’s a different type of inspiration that comes from someone closer to your own age and background (compared to those who might be just a decade older) and her life lessons wrapped up in quick humour and honesty make her story feel all the more real and all the more possible to achieve.
-
I’m lucky to be growing up at a time where I can consume media produced by people who look like me and who share my experiences. Though being a content creator is the butt of many jokes, I’m inspired by the messages that these women share and want to be able to do the same someday (whether that’s through videos, blogging or a different medium).
I spend a lot of time on the internet (arguably too much), but at least content like this can sometimes make it worthwhile.

Tennis Skirts are underrated
Taken by Black J (a blackpink Jennie fansite) Pictured above: Jennie from Blackpink
Some of you may have noticed that tennis skirts are coming back in the preppy aesthetic that reminds me very much of what you’d see in a teen’s show about really any upper class students (cough *gossip girl* cough). Emma Chamberlain, who’d I say is a major fashion influence on the younger generation with such a large following who are around the same age as her (i think this is important to mention because since she is a teen (19) her style is adaptable for her main audience), has also worn it in her instagram posts. I’ll go into detail about preppy style later but I think for the majority of people from the west that is where they’re seeing tennis skirts return in pop culture.
Personally, I started seeing tennis skirts before they were a big closet staple in the west through korean fashion. Even before I became an army I really just loved the way that the typical korean style was cute and comfortable (my go to). Much of my feed was oversized shirts tucked into mini skirts or shorts and honestly it was like my perfect type of outfit. Simple, cute, and most of all easy to wear. That being said, I didn’t invest in a piece until my fashion icon (yes this is about ashley aka bestdressed- are we surprised) because I guess for me I thought it wasn’t mainstream enough for me to wear without people staring. I definitely suffer from the spotlight effect, which is typical for teens, but also I just genuinely like didn’t think I was cool enough-or fit- to wear them. Now tennis skirts are like my favorite item because of both the movement and also they’re just really cute. Like yes sometimes I feel like either a schoolgirl or someone’s anime crush but if I’m really anxious about it one day, they can be edged up a bit with some hardy shoes like docs. I also think platform boots would be dope (yes I still say that unironically- it’s a good word I swear) but I have enough of a height complex as is because everyone was really short at my school so I always felt like a giant. Anyhow, yeah I think more people should rock tennis skirts (I refuse to call them pleated skirts, Im sorry) and even though they’re trendy not many people wear it and I think they should.

Succulent - What are you looking forward to? - I don’t know! I’m going through a stage in my life where I seem to have no certainties anymore. I’m questioning my uni choice so i wouldn’t say i’m looking forward to my degree or a job ‘cause it causes me anxiety ahaha. Anyways I’m surely looking forward to a better time in my life where i can find people who can become important to me!!
Velvet - What is your style? - already answered but I said it’s a mixture of vintage and modern..kind of preppy style?? my icons are Ashley aka bestdressed and many more i can’t remember of now ahah :’
thank you so much ! ❤️ ❤️

Fashion Icons
Hey guys in this post I’m going to be talking about some of my favorite fashion icons.
First up is @ internetgirl on Instagram also known as Bella. She’s become a well know fashion icon by selling trendy clothes on her depop and creating her own brand known as IGirl.
Next is @ d.hoo_ni. He is mostly known for his streetwear and wearing high end designers and brands. He’s definitely one of my favorite male fashion icons.
Next is @ bestdressed on Instagram also known as Ashley. She has recently passed over 1 million subscribers on YouTube and I consider her a fashion icon because she works with a lot of thrifted and sustainable clothing items and reworks a lot of her clothing as well.
Lastly we have @ threadsobssesed on Instagram also known as Mellisa. She is also a YouTuber and she also sells a lot of her thrift finds on Depop. I consider her a fashion icon because she mainly uses a lot of thrifted pieces in her outfits and she gives me great outfit inspiration.

Alexa Chung, Stevie Nicks, bestdressed (Ashley) on Instagram, and honestly that's all i can drop by name I think??? Mostly if it looks like something that could be worn on a picnic in the Italian countryside or Paris in the fall then I'm into it tbh

My Fashion Story
Some of you may be wondering, “Noelle aren't you in university? Don’t you have homework you need to be doing?” And the answer is yes, creating a fashion blog for fun is definitely not how I should be spending my time right now but here I am anyways. If you were to ask me about how I would describe my style I would say it’s heavily 90′s inspired (ashley banks is still a fashion icon) mixed in with some modern trendiness inspired from ashley from @bestdressed on youtube (i’ll make a separate post about her later since she is my main fashion influence). However, if you ask my friends it’s a mix of hipster and VSCO girl (which I somewhat attest to but what can I say).
But anyways, I’ve been through all the stages: punk, preppy (i almost exclusively wore hollister and american eagle when i was in my first two years of high school), justice (shoutout to my fellow 2000s babies who were also bathed in sequins during middle school), athletic (you can see the exact point i started dressing myself at this stage---it was bad, and of course VSCO (but honestly oversized tees are so comfy and it’s great for when you literally don’t care about how you look)). Suffice to say I’ve been through a lot of different fashion identities. Even now I don’t think I have much of an aesthetic but I just like talking about fashion and trends and trying to predict them. Like idk it’s just fun for me. That being said this blog is kind of just a way for me to put together the things I like and see if maybe I do magically have an aesthetic (though that is doubtful) but also to interact with others who like the same thing! So yeah, let me know what you think about certain trends too and if you like any of the outfit inspo I’ve posted. Here’s to hoping this blog doesn’t die like dimpled-photos
