 Yo yo what's happening fellas welcome back to the channel serious question how are you guys doing spring is hitting a little different this year so you know let me know in the comments below how you guys are doing if you guys are doing all right I myself have been decent not the best but anyways one thing that's been keeping me from going insane is just putting outfits together you know I kind of treat it like nothing's really going on and it's really honestly kind of calling me down a little bit and currently it's beautiful and warm outside spring is here so that is why in this video we are going to be talking about my top spring essentials for 2020 now the tips in this video is going to be tips I've been doing for the past few springs you guys don't have to listen to me this is just what I do I try not to make my videos come off like yo you need to do this you need to listen to me I'm an expert don't listen to anyone I hope it doesn't come off like that because fashion is subjective you do you everyone has their own different tastes so you can take my advice for what is worth and before we get into it I just want to let you guys know that this video is sponsored by cuts clothing but we'll talk about them later in the video so I'm going to get the things that you guys hear the most out of the way first because I understand it can get a little bit repetitive but let's just get into it I've been doing it every year and that is bringing out the light wash denim throwing on a pair of light wash denim that's cuffed is just the definition of spring to me it's super casual it doesn't absorb heat so it's not going to be so stuffy when going out some brands that I recommend are express uniclo or even Levi's and pairing in with a pair of white sneakers you've got that light chill vibe going on and that is definitely a vibe especially during these rough times next up we have low top sneakers so don't get me wrong I'm still going to be wearing my high cut Jordan ones during the spring and summertime but I won't be wearing them as much because that's like equivalent to wearing you know like a turtleneck for your legs and that's probably going to mean stinky ass feet for you so for low tops you can never go wrong with a solid pair of white sneakers for spring whether it be minimal leather sneakers or canvas white sneakers are a great way to add some lighter tones to your fit because they contrast pretty much against any color making for a lighter vibe to your fits these are from new republic and these are vans authentic can't go wrong with either both are pretty much the same except the leather ones you can dress up a bit more and if you want something in between roll with the Nike Air Force ones the easy power phases and if you can't afford those you can just roll with the Adidas continental 80s now the classic vans old schools are definitely a staple as well but you also need a pair of runners I don't know about you but I'm going to be wearing a ton of athleisure this spring it's comfortable I'm gonna be going on a lot of walks and runs because I'm gonna go insane if I don't and so you need a solid pair of runners that are going to go with your athleisure fits as well as your regular fits so that is why I recommend something like the Nike element 87s or the new balance 997s both are comfortable and perform really well runners go great with a pair of denim and they also go great with cargoes and track pants for that active wear almost tech wear aesthetic incredibly versatile some other sneakers I recommend are the ultra boost if you guys are still into that and also the Nike airmax 97s and the triple white those are hot if anybody has a size 11 or 10 and a half send the DM and going off that athlete's revive the next essential I'm going to recommend are windbreakers so I'm sure you may see others online talking about how you need a denim jacket or a bomber those are definitely dope for this time as well but I find windbreakers to be more useful more comfortable and if styled right more fly see windbreakers do exactly what you know the name of it is they block the wind and it definitely gets windy during the spring you know the hot air is causing a lot of wind and all that but not only that there are a lot of windbreakers out there from the north face to Uniclo that offer waterproofing to keep you dry because April showers are a thing except only here it's only precipitated once and that was snow everyone's monsoon season is a little different in Mexico it's around June anyways you could stay dry whenever you're going out for runs and a windbreaker will definitely give off a more athletic look which I'm sure will probably be a little bit more common this year rather than you know a bomber and Chelsea boots personally I like wearing a windbreaker with cargo pants for that more futuristic dystopian look don't let that stop you though Marquez Brownley does wear it with his J's these are versus how AF especially during times like these where people aren't trying too hard to look fly next up we got lighter colors see for the fall and winter it was cool to go with the more darker colors now I'm still going to be rocking darker colors during the spring don't get me wrong but you know bring some life into your days flowers are blooming right now we got cherry blossoms why not throw some lighter colors to your fits so as mentioned earlier light wash denim and white sneakers beautiful but also don't forget about the teas combining light wash denim white sneakers and a lighter colored tea my goodness you hit spring gold and I want to be your friend so whether it be an oversized tee or a fitted t-shirt lighter colors that lean more towards that pastel color palette are perfect colors are recommended are salmon pink cream is always a clean color way and maybe something like an olive or light pastel green shirt I'd say those are a great start then you can move towards those you know stone blues and dusty purples and for me I've been trying to incorporate more fitted shirts into the fits because I feel like they suit spring time a lot more than the fall and winter personal opinion by the way I haven't stopped wearing them completely as some of you guys may think Johnny I thought you stopped wearing fitted clothes you made a whole video about it well maybe you should watch it again they do get a few wears a week and if you guys also like fitted clothes I want to recommend you guys the sponsor of today's video cuts clothing so as you guys know the t-shirt is a must have in any wardrobe you can't be sure this all year round come on that's crazy and throughout my years of starting this channel I have had my fair share of shrink shirts bacon necks and just overall terrible quality t-shirts in general I'm sure you guys can relate what I like about cuts clothing is their modern take on a t-shirt as you guys know I've been incorporating fitted teas more often in the wardrobe and my favorite part about cuts and what makes them stand out is that they allow you to pick your favorite designs in a t-shirt you could go with the crew neck v-neck or henley and or you can choose your cut from elongated which I recommend for taller dudes the split hem which is my favorite choice or the classic curved hem and that's why I took on cuts clothing to sponsor this video because I feel like that makes them stand out and for me personally I like having a little bit of options when it comes to the cut of my shirt and for reference I chose a crew neck with a split hem in a size medium and I'm 5'7 at 156 pounds so I hope that helps some of you guys out they've got a variety of colors that are perfect for the springtime and they come pre-shrunk wrinkle-free and will hold its shape over time I've already watched these shirts plenty of times and they haven't shrunk at all and they still feel brand new what I also like about them is they lean more towards that lifestyle wear so I can wear this when I'm lounging at home or whenever I'm going on dates you know at home and everything in between I even wear this when I work out because you know they really nailed the fit so guys go ahead and click the link in the description you guys will see that they got plenty of cuts plenty of colors for you to choose that'll also suit anybody's taste and if you guys want to save some money you guys can use the discount code johnny underscore tie at checkout and I really appreciate your guys' support and also thank you cuss clothing for sponsoring this video so next on the list we have shoulder and tote bags so to me shoulder bags or tote bags give off this smart casual vibe that I find perfect for the warmer months when going out was a thing I'd always meet up with people wearing a backpack those can get a little bit bulky and it's just a little bit too much for just a casual meetup but tote bags and shoulder bags will have plenty of storage and honestly can serve as a backpack replacement and it really can elevate your look now for me I try and stay away from the really thick leather ones because it can come off looking like a purse and there's nothing wrong with that it's just not my preference there are exceptions though and some of them actually look really good but I would lean more towards that grandma made this out of her Danish cookies bin full of sewing materials rather than your loud Trader Joe's type of crunchy material now apc is my favorite place to go for tote bags they've got the leather ones that I like and the cloth like ones as well I'm sure there are plenty of other brands but apc just have my favorite ones if you're not into tote bags I'd recommend the shoulder bag that I got from Uniclo this definitely can be rocked with minimal smart outfits but also more techie outfits that normal tote bags can't it's waterproof and very simply designed one of my favorite pickups this year and is a great start to bags in general as tote bags I find is more for a certain fashion base next up we got accessories shoulder bags and tote bags do count in this little category but I feel like they deserve their own point so I don't really want to ramble on this too much since it is getting warmer though you can't really utilize layering to add complexity to your fit so our fits are naturally going to be a lot more simple and basic and so to compensate for that you're going to need some accessories so of course a watch bracelets rings and you know a necklace these are definitely a year-round thing for me fall winter spring summer then on to other things like tying a bandana around your belt loop throwing on a belt chain to add a more edgy punk vibe to the fit and because of the things that are going on right now a face mask is definitely an essential along with hand sanitizer and clorox wipes which you can keep in your tote bag or shoulder bag those are just a few of my recommendations but it's totally up to you last but not least is nothing related to fashion at all it's entertainment I really hope you guys have been doing well I myself have been struggling a lot creatively even though I am still working out and still working from home my life hasn't really changed too much which I'm super grateful for but because you know you can't go out and you have to social distance it's taken quite a bit of a toll on me you know because I am an extra rid but that's first world problems and nobody really cares but getting back to it as much as I land in the boats of you will never have this much time you should really be pursuing the things you want to pursue you also want to balance that hustle and skill development and also the media with some form of entertainment for me skateboarding definitely really helps I also play scrabble with my girl and also play animal crossing on my switch for you it might be Disney plus a puzzle maybe some photography or watching my videos and smashing the like button for the youtube algorithm because at the end of the day clothes are clothes they're really nice to have and it's actually kind of fun you know putting together some outfits but getting through this while staying sane is much more important so that's it guys spring is a lot different this year I hope you guys found this video helpful if you
