Thank you so much for watching! :)
Babe, what are these shorts that you got?
Oh my gosh.
Are you actually joking?
Oh no.
Another day, another vlog.
Son. Gabriel is a dad.
I'm really trying to practice to be a dad.
So I have to do like the double glasses thing.
No, people will think I'm pregnant if you say that.
Oh, whoops. No, he's just like being silly.
I'm just practicing just because for fun.
Just because. No, seriously though.
Like I'm literally walking around with like
the sunglasses here and then my glasses here
and then when I like have to go outside
then I go like this.
I'm just killing two birds with one stone right now.
I'm just doubling up.
Double or nothing.
I feel like that is a dad thing.
I'm literally, I'm, everyone's gonna look at me
and be like, ew, gross, unfollow, unsubscribe.
With that said, like and subscribe.
Oh, actually, legit, before we start this,
I don't, what am I doing?
Before we start this, I just want to say
and put this out there, no obligation,
but if you have Instagram,
you guys should follow us both
because we're both at 1.9,
getting very close to 2 million followers.
And if you enjoy Instagramming
and things of that sort,
which I'm guessing you do
because you're on YouTube right now,
and you want to help a brother and sister out
on their journey to, okay, anyway,
that's, you guys know what,
I'm getting to 2 million.
It's free.
It's, alright, I think that's enough.
We don't want to be annoying, so.
Hey, I'm the one.
Ha!
You're the self-plugger.
I have to,
because I don't freaking grow like you do.
Everyone follows you.
Go follow Gabriel.
She's about to pass me on Instagram, so.
Stop.
Help a brother out.
What's going on, guys?
Welcome back to Jess and Gabriel vlogs.
It's your host, Jess and Gabriel.
God, T.
Starring Jess and Gabriel.
God, T.
Directed by Jess and Gabriel.
Executively produced by Jess and...
So what are we doing today?
What are we doing today?
Yeah.
Getting a life, first of all,
because that's, okay.
We are doing this thing
that we like to call the...
The Rift Store.
Husband and wife Rift Store challenge.
Husband and wife Rift Store challenge
for each other with a limit of $20 each.
$20?
Is it? Is that it? $10?
We could do $20 or $30, I think.
$20?
$20.
So we're going to go eat some breakfast,
but then we're going to...
Mind you, it's also 2 o'clock again.
Like, every vlog that we tell you it's 2 o'clock
and we're going to eat,
like, not even joking.
Well, no, I'm going to have lunch,
but he's going to have breakfast.
2.12.
Not even joking.
It's always 2 o'clock when we go grab breakfast food.
Well, he loves breakfast food, but anyway.
It's the best.
Breakfast food is the best thing, so...
Golly.
Get a life.
Anyway, so we're going to go eat breakfast, lunch,
and then we're going to hit the Rift Stores
and just try and find each other cool outfits.
I'm really excited for it.
We're going to go eat.
See you soon.
Yo, we're back.
What's up?
Alright, we had some breakfast, brunch, lunch,
kind of dinner, close to dinner.
Anyway.
We ate, we've come to the Rift Store.
We're ready.
To go shopping.
Come on, lady.
Oh, my.
That guy just passed me on the bike so fast.
I got so scared while I was trying to talk to my girls.
My girls?
My girls.
Come on, ladies.
Yeah, we made it to the Rift Store.
We're going to split up.
I'm going to get Jess a dope outfit,
and Jess is going to try and get something for me
and, like, you know, whatever.
It'd be really great.
Okay, let's go.
Let's go.
Oh, no.
This is a disaster.
Oh, my word.
There is an ocean.
This is an ocean of women's clothing.
I wouldn't know where to start.
Jess, what do you think of this?
What do you think of this right here?
This is perfect.
This is the look.
This is an actually good outfit.
If I don't get one, it'll make me laugh.
Okay, I think we're making progress.
I found a denim jacket thing from Forever 21 in here,
so I think we're going in the right direction here,
but that's all I have.
That's it so far, so...
Jess, you okay?
I have found the next piece,
and I think this is slowly going downhill,
but we're just going to roll with it
because I don't know what I'm freaking doing,
and a striped tank top to go under the jeans.
Honestly, that looks like Hannah Montana
when she was actually filming Hannah Montana,
but I'm going to go with it.
Oh, yeah.
Babe, I think I found the perfect shoes for you.
Look at these things.
Those are rad.
I look really good in them.
Oh, you're going to look so freaking good.
Okay, so I think my biggest struggle now
is finding a pair of pants or jeans or something
that aren't boot cut
and just finding a normal pair of skinny jeans for Jess.
Fingers crossed that I'm able to do that
because boot cut seems to be the real trend here at Goodwill.
Okay, so I think I found good jeans,
but it's just looking too mom for me.
Okay, I have now found this Calvin Klein sweater thing
that I think is...
It's a large, which I think will work
because Jess likes those kinds of things baggy, I think.
I don't actually know what I'm doing,
but now I feel like you'd wear these with leggings,
and I have a pair of jeans,
so I'm going to go find a pair of leggings and a pair of jeans.
This is all just turning out great.
Found leggings. Come on.
Jess, I have a question.
Yes?
Are we picking out shoes too?
Only if you can.
Only if we can.
If it's my size and stuff,
but that's not the main thing.
Okay, to be honest,
shoes is a cool idea in theory,
but I found a pair of pilgrim shoes.
I'm going to keep looking and see,
but might have a little trouble with this one.
Okay, I found these shoes.
Not entirely sure about them,
but I think they'll work.
These are either a hit or miss.
They're going to be cute,
or it's going to be a disaster.
By the way, babe, I picked out shoes.
You did?
Yeah, you're going to have to...
Are they my size?
I think. I don't know.
I just kind of guessed.
We'll see.
I kind of guessed on everything.
Sorry, it's my turn now.
I've kind of already had a head start,
so don't look in my basket.
Okay.
You literally just looked in the basket.
I'm looking straight at your basket.
It's right in front of me.
You're like, oh, don't look at my basket,
and you tapped your basket.
I was like, oh, that one right there.
So it's my turn.
I've already had a little look,
and I've got some things in my basket already,
but I still need some time.
This is what I'm going to get for Gabriel.
I already have some shirts in there
that I need to go through,
and I get so shy vlogging by myself.
Yeah, I have a few shirts that I need to go through.
I think I found a really good...
What did you say? What happened?
I said I get shy vlogging by myself,
and I felt like, I like talking like this.
I feel like this groovy music
is going to outpower your whispering voice.
I think I found a really good shirt from Topman
for like $4 or something,
so I think that's the one I'm going to go for.
He's really difficult with pants
because he hates wearing jeans.
I'm trying to find like some joggers,
like some tracksuit pants that I might like.
It's a little difficult.
Sorry, I'll keep you updated.
I've just asked him to not look
because I just need to do something really quick.
Oh, that's...
No.
What did you just do?
I just measured them up against you.
I don't think I like them, sorry.
I don't get why this is taking you so long.
Like, it's freaking easy to look.
It's really difficult.
It's actually a lot harder than I thought.
So, I'm at the final destination.
He's been very patient.
It was actually really hard to do, guys.
Like, the pants...
I crushed it, just saying.
The pants section was really lacking.
I don't know if I have a full outfit.
I'm at the shoe section, so hopefully...
I feel like the guy's shoe section is going to...
Yeah, hopefully I find something.
I think I've gotten one good thing so far.
Really?
Yeah, I'm just looking at this shoe section here
and I'm just...
It kind of makes me happy
because I know I'm going to win this challenge,
so like, whatever.
So, yeah.
Get it.
Yep.
That guy was totally looking at me.
I don't care because vloggers.
Suicide.
Okay, these are kind of the nicest I can find,
but they look like they're my size,
so I think I'm going to take them home for me.
But it's really difficult.
Like, I don't know what to pick.
Okay, Gabe has told me to get these.
I'm just trying to help you out.
Like, there's nothing else better than this.
I don't know if they're going to go with my really cool outfit.
Okay, I guess I'm getting these.
Okay, I'm going to go through.
Gabriel is literally sitting right here.
I'm touching him, but he's not going to look.
No, no, no, you're not going to look.
I'm not going to look at what?
Okay, I'm going to go through everything.
Can you see it on the camera?
Yes, and pick my final outfit.
Don't look, Bobby, okay?
I'm not.
This I'm getting for me.
I think that's really cute.
Okay, so I like this.
Okay, I think that's what I'm going to do.
Okay, guys, really last minute.
I found these shoes.
I have no idea if they're going to fit,
but I feel like they'll suit better than these.
Oh, my gosh.
What?
I think I'm done.
Do they have hats?
What?
Are you ready to leave?
Yeah, I'm so ready to leave.
I think so.
Wait, Jess, are we done?
Well, I was looking for the hat section.
So we're done?
Oh, my gosh.
Hello.
It's the fresh air.
It's the sunlight.
It's finally hitting my face.
I feel like we were in there for so long.
Oh, my gosh.
What year is it?
You know what I realized now that we walked out of there?
That we totally did not stick to the $20 rule.
Yes, I did.
You did?
I think so, yeah.
Okay, whoops.
That's my bad.
I think I lost in that regard.
That's all that matters.
No, that's not.
Whoever stuck to the budget.
I'm just trying to pick you a good outfit, okay?
I was looking out for you.
And I also want to win.
Do you think I'll like it?
I actually do.
I'm actually pretty confident that you're going to like it.
Really?
Yeah.
See you at home.
And we're back.
Okay, now we have to try on our outfits.
All right, babe.
Are you ready for this?
You ready to do it?
Okay, so how about we start with mine because I know you're not going to like it.
Okay, so you pull your stuff out for me.
I'll try it on.
And then I'll walk out and we'll do a big reveal.
And we're ready.
Milo's excited.
Yeah, he is.
Yeah, Milo, we didn't get you any clothes because you're not a human.
So this is my pile.
All right, babe.
Goodbye.
Babe, what are these shorts I got?
Oh, my gosh.
Are you actually joking?
Oh, no.
Babe, these are shorts I wore at work that my mom already picked out for me when I was like six years old.
No, don't.
It was so difficult.
Oh, the shirt's not bad.
Babe, I used to wear this all the time.
Babe, this could have totally been a shirt that I donated.
Are you serious?
This is so funny, babe.
This is totally the shirt I donated.
Hey, the shoes fit.
Yeah, but they're...
Hey, be nice.
You know what?
It doesn't actually look bad in the...
This looks great.
Bobby, the pants were so hard to...
Babe, this is literally the shirt that I donated.
You literally bought back the shirt I donated.
Well, it looks good, so...
Okay, everything fits, so I did a good thing.
You did a good thing.
Everything fits.
And I'm not too worried because I'm getting a whole new closet when we drop that new content clothing that's gonna be out real soon.
It's freaking fire.
We've been waiting months to release this stuff.
It's our biggest launch yet.
Wow.
So stay tuned.
He's such a plugger.
Okay, so what would you rate this out of ten?
The shirt is like out of eight.
I wouldn't pick this out for myself.
I'm not a fan of the zips, and I don't like this seam here.
I'm not a fan of like this...
He's so fussy.
Well, it's true, but it is a top man shirt, so good job.
The shorts are solid.
You know, there's some people who are like a really hipster that might wear these.
Babe, they don't look that bad.
I don't think we're seeing the same thing.
Like, I think my dad would wear them.
I'm just not even gonna respond to that because he's probably watching this live.
Dad, if you're watching, they're shorts you'd wear, right?
These are exactly shorts you'd wear.
Okay, what about the shoes?
Maybe I picked out an outfit for my dad.
That is exactly what you did.
I'm gonna go like a solid three.
Three.
Okay, I'll give you a four.
Four.
That's the highest I'm going.
Okay.
The shoes, like a five or a six.
Six.
Okay.
Okay, so what's that out of 30?
18 out of 30 for Jess Conte.
Okay.
Jess now has the rest of the clothing in that bag, which is her outfit that I picked out for her.
I'll be right back.
Alright.
I'm totally feeling this outfit, guys.
It's ridiculous.
Bubby, how's it going in there?
Hey.
How's the outfit coming along?
Oh, it's amazing.
Oh, isn't it?
I'm ready, Bubby.
Do you know about that?
And the reveal.
What?
Does this suck?
This is awful.
I think this would have been a lot better if you had gotten like black jeans and I would have like-
What?
Like put this in like that.
I literally had black jeans and put them away because I thought you'd wear leggings with that for it to be like a comfy outfit.
Well, it is a comfy outfit, but I wouldn't like wear it.
But you did really good.
The shoes, I don't enjoy.
What?
Yeah, that was a risky one that I was-
That was either like, it's either going to be a total hit or a total, you know.
If I had jeans that I could tuck this into, I feel like that would look nicer.
Okay, so I'm going to rate.
Top.
Go.
I'm going to give the top a five.
And a half.
Only because, like, I just don't think you really thought about it all together.
The leggings I do like, so I'm going to give them like an eight and a half.
Eight and a half plus a five and a half.
Where are we at?
Thirteen and a half.
Fourteen.
The shoes.
The shoes I'd give like-
Did you give me a three?
No, I gave you a six on these.
Even though I-
I did?
You made me give you a six on those.
I was doing a five to be nice and you said six.
Yeah, I'll give these a-
Babe.
Those are just as bad as what I have on my feet.
Yeah, I'd give these a five.
Okay, so-
What's that?
I have no idea.
What?
Fourteen plus-
I beat you by one.
Honestly, it's kind of a tie.
I think we both just completely failed.
I think we tied.
Okay, good job.
We tied.
No, I actually beat her by one.
But we tied.
Don't tickle me.
See, this is nice, you know?
Like, we both look good right now.
Yeah, we both look-
You couldn't even tell.
But then, like, you just start going down and just like-
It literally goes downhill as you go down our bodies.
We are back in our normal clothes.
Thank goodness.
But, with that being said, thank you guys so much for watching.
