00:00With this jacket that is kind of close to the body and this that is more baggy, a bit of

00:04a Kim Possible look.

00:06It's shiny, there's some texture.

00:36Hey, this is Melissa Boni from Ad Infinitum.

00:39We're in North America today in Chicago headlining for the first time and we are promoting our album Abyss.

00:46Today I'm going to take you through some of my stage outfits.

00:49So when I choose an outfit I'm trying to reflect both my personality and the music that we're playing on

00:54stage.

00:55So typically for Ad Infinitum it's going to be cargo pants, jackets or sometimes I like high boots.

01:06High boots.

01:09Yeah, and I like to try different stuff tour after tour.

01:14I kind of never redo an outfit for two tours in a row.

01:20It's both interesting and stressful but I like and sometimes I also like to craft some stuff at home to

01:26make everything custom and unique.

01:28I usually bring a few options but I always end up having a favorite and wearing this one most of

01:34the time.

01:35So this is actually something we found with Adrian.

01:38We went shopping at some point on the tour.

01:41I didn't bring this from home.

01:42So we went to this shop that had everything hair and outfits and we found two pieces.

01:50There's this and a trouser that goes together with it and it ended up being one of my favorite things

01:56ever.

01:57So I've been wearing it for many shows now.

02:00It's a simple crop jacket.

02:02Plain black.

02:04Very comfortable.

02:05Sometimes a little too warm though.

02:07We've had a few very warm and sweaty shows and this one definitely keeps you warm.

02:12I don't know this brand Dona.

02:16I have no idea.

02:19So we were at this boutique where actually I found a couple of pieces and lots of hair products and

02:27basically anything that is fun to shop when you're going with your friends on the day off.

02:37Yeah, I've never, I don't even know how to pronounce the name of that shop.

02:40It's Tyson or Tisan or something like this.

02:43Next, I have this overall at home and I've been using it as a trouser and I've been doing this,

02:50been doing this kind of to give a bit of texture here.

02:59And yeah, I've, this is, this is very cozy, very, um, it feels a bit like a cargo pants, like

03:08cargo pants.

03:10Um, and it keeps this, uh, with this jacket that is kind of close to the body and this that

03:15is more baggy, a bit of a Kim Possible look.

03:19A little bit of a, um, spy slash ninja.

03:25I don't know.

03:26Somewhere online.

03:28I usually, I spent many, many hours looking at different shops online and, uh, I found this piece.

03:35I, I have an entire part of my closet, which is like tons of pieces that I either found online

03:43or in shops and some, some of them that I personalized.

03:47Um, and very often I try to reuse some pieces, but combine them with different other pieces to create new

03:55outfits.

03:55So this is a piece we also found at this shop when we went shopping with Adrian Cohen.

04:01Shout out to Adrian Cohen from Seven Spires.

04:04Um, and I love it because it's shiny.

04:07There's a lot of texture, but I haven't worn it yet because I felt like with the pieces I have

04:14here, I couldn't pair it in a way that would not make me look like a country singer.

04:19So, but I think I will wear it tonight.

04:21I'll try because I really love, you know, it's shiny.

04:26It's, there's some, there's some texture, there's some volume and it could be, I think I would pair it with

04:33a crop top or a bundle or something like this.

04:37And probably, probably different pants.

04:41So right before this headline tour, we were on 70,000 tons of metal and I was wearing those cargo

04:49pants slash jeans.

04:53And again, I love having like, if I have a very close to the body piece, like top piece, I

05:00like to have more baggy pants to create some kind of different dynamic.

05:06Um, and those are really cool. They have a lot of texture. They have lots of, yeah, lots of things

05:13going on.

05:14Also something I already had at home that I probably found online somewhere.

05:18So usually when I'm trying to create an outfit for a tour, I'll have a vision of the whole look,

05:24both the outfits, the, the, the hair, the makeup, the, sometimes I have flowers on the face or something.

05:31I, I, I, I love to create something, create a mood.

05:35Um, for the previous tour, for example, I, I was, I really wanted something that shines.

05:41So I had, um, I have shoulder pads that were shiny.

05:45I had, I sew some, um, some shiny thread on some of the clothes to, you know, when the light

05:53hits it, it reflects.

05:54Um, and I usually find some, a mood, um, and then I create whatever I want.

06:03For example, it could be a very street look, or it could be very feminine, or it could be a

06:10mix of both.

06:12And, and, and yeah, I just try to have a vision.

06:15Sometimes I draw, um, the, the piece, uh, on, on my iPad and I'm like, okay, I have, I've created

06:22this, um, project where I've drawn different, like I've drawn me.

06:27And then I have different types of boots, of tops, of shorts or skirts or whatever.

06:34And then I can change the, I can, you know, show, make appear whatever piece I want.

06:41So I can create the outfit and then I can, if I have new ideas, I can draw a different

06:45piece.

06:46And yeah, and I create this and then I, and I, then I spend way too much time online.

06:51So sometimes I will sew, um, some extra stuff on it, uh, extra textiles, extra decorations.

07:00I will sometimes, you know, there's this glue textile, textile glue.

07:04I will glue some decorations, some, especially shiny stuff.

07:07I like when it shines.

07:08I like when the lights hit the outfit and then it goes like a disco ball.

07:13Um, sometimes I will cut some stuff.

07:16Um, it really depends because sometimes I have a very clear vision, but I don't feel like it.

07:21I find exactly what I want online.

07:22So instead of, of not having exactly what I want, I'll just take this in my own hands and try

07:29to, to make it happen.

07:30I think it's kind of similar what I wear every day, but just a little bit more cozy and practical.

07:39What I wear on stage is more, it's an accentuation of my character or who I am or of my

07:47personality.

07:48Um, but it's still very close.

07:52Like, it's not like you would see me, uh, grocery shopping and you'd be like, what?

07:57Who, who is she?

07:59It's kind of still, still, um, well, you can see, um, I, I could maybe go on stage with this,

08:06but put some extra glitters or something that makes it more like a stage outfit.

08:11So when it comes to footwear for this tour, I have boots like this.

08:16Um, I went for flat ones because I think with, with the outfit I have with those cargo pants and

08:23this kind of, um, more street look, it, it just goes well.

08:28Um, I would easily also wear heels, heels sometimes, but for this, for this tour, I just thought that this

08:35would be the vibe and I, I just love them.

08:38I, I've been wearing them for a few tours now and they are some of my favorites.

08:42They go with a lot of stuff.

08:43They go with, for example, sometimes I have shorts and, and, um, body, body suit and like more, for more

08:51feminine look.

08:53Um, but this still goes well with it because it has this, you know, it goes until here and there's

09:00the laces.

09:01And so I, I really love those.

09:03Yeah.

09:04Dream pairs.

09:05I don't remember where I got them.

09:07I think I might have ordered them from Amazon.

09:10First of all, this is my favorite palette ever.

09:14It's, uh, from cosmic brushes.

09:17And I mean, I don't know if you can see, but all the colors are very, very beautiful and pigmented.

09:25And also there are those that have kind of two colors in one.

09:31And like I said, I love glitters.

09:34So I like to have, um, kind of easy, um, soft eye look like this would be, I would go

09:44on stage like this, but to have some little glitters here.

09:48Um, I'm not very good at eye makeup, I think.

09:53So I go pretty natural with this, with, um, you know, eyeliner, uh, some color along the eyeliner, a bit

10:03of a, a bit of depth here with, for example, a color like this, a bit of this to create

10:09the base.

10:09And then I went with this for most of the tour to have a little shiny, shiny thing going on.

10:17Um, so yeah, that's, that's my go-to for this tour.

10:21Um, it's beautiful palettes.

10:23I love it.

10:24One of my favorite lip products is this from Satu.

10:28Um, it's a lip stain and basically you put it on and after a while you peel it off and

10:36it stays the whole night.

10:37And it's perfect because very, very often I've been wearing lipstick and, you know, with the microphone.

10:42Then at the end of the show, I had lipstick here, lipstick here.

10:45And with this, I don't have this problem.

10:47So this stays forever and then the little gloss and I'm ready to go.

10:54This is currently my favorite blush from Too Faced.

10:57It has a kind of pink orange tone and it's the shade Tequila, I think.

11:07Tequila sunset.

11:08I was in such a hurry to pack for this tour because it was, I had my release party.

11:14I had the cruise and then the tour and there were so many things to bring that I forgot all

11:19my accessories, necklaces and whatever.

11:21But, once more, we went shopping with Adrian.

11:25Adrian.

11:27And, um, I found this.

11:38This necklace for the stage in Montreal in a shop called Diabolique and I think I'm going to wear it

11:47tonight.

11:48It's going to be the perfect accessory for my look.

11:54Yeah.

11:55I also like to wear, sometimes, stones like this.

11:59It's very much me.

12:01Thank you so much for watching.
