00:00Jill Wallace of Little Black Boots.
00:02How did you come up with that name?
00:04To me, it's like the perfect accessory for any outfit.
00:06She's wearing little black boots right now.
00:08What are the classic Jill Wallace pieces?
00:10Bell bottoms, a lot of maxi dresses, tons of boots,
00:14really into crop tops, and then lots of hats.
00:16I feel like I'm kind of like boho girl downtown.
00:18So people have to get dressed every day.
00:20Some people are faster than others.
00:21How do you create an outfit really efficiently and something
00:24that you feel confident in?
00:26Start at the bottom.
00:26So figure out what skirt or pair of jeans,
00:30and then work from there.
00:31It's kind of like the anchor to it all.
00:32So now that we've gotten to know you a little bit better,
00:34can we go look in your closet?
00:35Yes, absolutely, let's do it.
00:40Let's say you're at a party.
00:42What would be your conversation starter piece?
00:44I would say something like this.
00:46Ooh, pretty.
00:48It is a loud print, which when you walk in the room,
00:51you're going to get noticed.
00:52The back of it is open.
00:54So yeah, it's kind of like a bit of a showstopper.
00:57Oh, totally.
01:01Next up, let's do a superhero outfit.
01:03So I'd probably wear something like this.
01:05Really amazing jumper.
01:07It kind of has the Ziggy Stardust vibe to it.
01:09I'd be the Julie Stardust version.
01:11Gives you legs for days.
01:12Super low on the front.
01:13So I'd probably wear it with some long necklaces.
01:15The fabric looks really aerodynamic,
01:17because if you're running really fast.
01:18Yeah, so when I fly, it's perfect.
01:23How about a classic Jill Wallace piece?
01:25Basically, every day I live in bell-bottoms.
01:27This pair is my current favorite right now.
01:30And then I also wear a lot of muscle tees.
01:32This one is really beat up, because I wear it all the time.
01:34Yeah, it looks very, very Jill Wallace.
01:36Thank you so much for letting me stay at your house for a day.
01:39And before I go, would you like me to take something to recycle?
01:42I have this really awesome vintage leather jacket.
01:45It's kind of one of a kind, but I can part ways with it.
01:49OK.
01:50OK.
01:50Bye.
01:50Bye, Jill.
