It's giving
含义: It's radiating a particular energy, vibe, or aesthetic — used to describe the impression something makes.
It's giving is used to describe the vibe or energy that something projects. 'It's giving boss' means it projects boss energy. 'It's giving desperation' means it looks desperate. Used alone without a noun ('it's giving!'), it means something is impressive or serving looks. The negative form 'it's not giving' means something falls flat or fails to impress.
