Love it🎉🎉🎉

Congratulations on the great collab and haul of quality pieces, but that is a bonkers amount of pricey items. I wish brands would do more collabs in the style of 'one new piece a month for six months' which would be more relatable and approachable in terms of £ total and quantity, and consistent with the styling-over-shopping vibe of channels like yours.

I like those goals

Fabrique!! It's such a good find. Thanks

Great video❤❤🎉🎉🎉

Hey! I really admire your videos. Can I please get the links of Brown and Beige top?

I love your new Fabrique brown trousers and grey jumper, grey and brown go so well together. You are NOT petite! Try being 5 foot nothing or less!

Sorry but I think the rusty brown jumper does not go with your new chocolate brown blazer, too much tonal contrast. I tried to order from Fabrique before but they didn't ship to the UK

Deine Kleidung ist sehr elegant und wie für dich gemacht 👍

Perfect 💯👍

I have lots of material and sewing notions so I’m hoping to add to my wardrobe that way, as well as work on my sewing skills. I’m also going to try and create up cycled items from what I already have. I will buy underwear, because that’s beyond my skill level. 😊

Excellent idea, thank you! I initially was planning a low-buy year with not buying anything every other month, starting with not buying any clothes/shoes/accessories this January. I also put a limit of 1000 $ for the whole of 2025. Now I will add the rule of 5 items maximum -the fewer the better, going for quality versus quantity- but still allowing for the 1,000 $ max budget. Does this make sense? I do have so many wonderful clothes... Please, help us with more creative shop-your-closet videos. Thanks Gemma!

I try to keep myself buying only 5 things new and the rest secondhand but still keeping my low buy budget (monthly 100 €+ sales from Vinted - I can roll it ) and adding only 12 items in the year. Tracking is a great idea 💡 - you made me to realize that I have not updated my closet app for a while… (huge mistake 😅). I also want to go through items by items and reflect on each piece in my wardrobe…

One thing i want to do this year is to "make do" and be less than a perfectionist. This might even lead to more original outfits. For example, I would love a pair of short ankle boots in suede, but I have a pair of navy ones that are almost black and they will do, your outfit does not need to be perfect. But something I must do to look better in clothes is to lose the 4-5lbs I put on recently, now that is going to make clothes hang better, won't cost me anything and will elevate my style more than buying something new.

5 items of clothing is not realistic for me (I've already bought 4 in January, 2 quality basics and 2 Massimo Dutti jackets, one velvet and one wool in gorgeous browns) but I'm definitely planning a low-buy year because I already have a beautiful big wardrobe and I don't need any more. The only exceptions would be those pieces (grey jacket, navy coat, brown herringbone blazer, new trench coat) that I've wanted for years but haven't found yet, at least not in the flattering design/length that would suit my petite frame. Other than that, I have enough shoes, underwear/tights, basic t-shirts, knitwear, jeans, cords, scarves and accessories, etc. I love them all. I'm 58 years young and I'm definitely buying more quality pieces and hardly any fast fashion. My problem is that I'm petite and to be honest I'd rather not have things altered because I worry about alterations not being done perfectly and it's also expensive. I also find it really hard to find something that 1) I love; 2) it's reasonably priced; and 3) suits me perfectly, so I buy it when I see it, not necessarily when I need it. Strictly speaking, I don't need anything, I could easily get by with what I have already, and I think most of us are in the same situation, we have more than enough to wear. I've only ever bought modern classic pieces that literally last me for decades, not just years. I am aware of trends but rarely follow them, especially if they're everywhere - I like to be different. So for example this year I stayed away from animal prints and I never did oversize apart from a single pair of inexpensive wide leg jeans. I have more clothes and shoes and accessories than I've ever had in my life and I bought most of them in the past few years, especially last year, because I saw quite a few pieces that I loved. I am not crazy about the 2025 trends and I'm almost relieved as my wardrobe is pretty full and I don't want to feel overwhelmed. It's rare that I buy any summer clothes because summers are short in London and I don't go away on holiday. I struggle to buy 2nd hand to be honest because charity shops here are expensive and mainly selling fast fashion. However I bought a gorgeous midnight blue Zadig & Voltaire blazer from an online charity site and it was just £30, practically new and the retail price would have been around £500 so I'm hugely pleased with that.

Really I could. I already have a curated closet and dont really need any more things so it will have to be neccessities or something

I’m trying to limit myself to 10 clothes/shoes/bags this year. I bought around 50 last year so it’ll definitely be difficult

Thanks for the motivation Gemma! I am going to try to keep the purchases to 5 and I am already strategizing…🤔😉 Your channel is awesome, here’s to a great 2025. 👍🙏🏼

I’m doing a no buy year this year so hopefully it works but I will definitely try this 5 item for next year for sure❤️

My goal is 25 in 25. It sounds a lot less impressive in light of 5 in 25, lol, but for me it's going to be a challenge.

I started tracking my wardrobe last year and I just tallied up the number of items I bought in 2024 and I'm shocked +embarrassed at the #. I should definitely take your video into consideration. 5 is probably not realistic for me but I'm definitely up for a similar challenge.

Six items are ok. That means one item every two months. Completely fine!!!!!!

I love this idea, Gemma! I am going to try to only buy 5 items (new or used) this year. I have already bought 3 of my 5 items second-hand on ThredUp (technically purchased in 2024 but not delivered yet). In 2024, I bought some fabric from a local art store that only sells used or donated items to make a dress (wish me luck) so I will count that as my 4th item. I would be very interested to see what items go on your wishlistand a tour of the clothes you have made. You have become my fashion inspiration. Thank you for your beautiful and thoughtful content! The planet needs more creators like you!

I like this challenge but I’d need to include 2nd hand in the rules too. Do you have a plan for how to incorporate gifted pieces?

I like to put my winter/summer wardrobe away. When I get it back out it feels new because I haven't been staring at it all year

I like buying second hand clothes and making them into what I want. Whether that is shortening or taking in, adding embellishments or upcoming into something new.

I will try to do a 15 only items purchasing this year (clothing, shoes and accessories) trying to reduce the number of my purchased items from last year' s 29 that I ended up getting. I don' t mind if they are new or second hand (besides most of my clothes are second hand during the last three years). I will try to stick to my wishlist, that I have already formed and consists of my absolutely indispensable gaps in my wardrobe (a new white t-shirt, white tank top, flat sandals etc). I love your channel and your content and you inspire me to continue my efforts for less and more sustainable purchases. In general I am very satisfied by my wardrobe and I love it that I don' t struggle to get dressed every day. On the other hand I love clothes and fashion and I know how tempting it can get to buy new things every now and then. I' m trying to tackle that. Thanks for your inspiration.

Do you go braless under that sequined cami? It's really nice. I never feel comfortable sans bra. You have a lot of lovely clothes. The summer outfits are way easier to style.

Stunning 😍

Oooh I’m excited!!!!!! I’ve been listening to other people’s low buy plans/reflections from other years, and thinking about your channel and how you’re probably cooking up something on the topic yourself! 🤩

What do you wear under a satin skirt like this? A half slip?

No clothing...especially pants

Can you share your capsule wardrobe i think that would be great🎉🎉❤

First off.. remember that everyone shares their highlights at this time of the year, not many people are sharing the lows they experienced. Don’t compare your year to somebody else’s highlight reel ♥️ I had some great experiences this year, but I also had a lot of lows. I just don’t have any photographic evidence of those times, nor do I wish to reflect on them today. It’s a new year, a fresh start, and I have a good feeling about 2025 ♥️ Thank you all for your support this year, here’s to another year of mindful shopping, wearing what we own and feeling good in our clothes 🎊🙌

That leopard suit is everything!!!😍

Where did you get the cream mockneck ribbed sweater you're wearing with the velvet pants? Thank you. Susan

That leopard suit 😍😍😍

Yes I think Dad probably did have a watch like that. It’s gorgeous

I hope you're all excited for some down-time over the holiday season. I know not everyone celebrates, but for me it's more of a time for rest, a break from work, time to reflect on the previous year and decide what my focus is for the year to come; plus of course some much needed family time. This year I'm with my in-laws, who live near the sea, so a visit to the beach for some goal setting is high on my list. For anyone struggling this time of year, due to loss, grief, or just feeling unhappy, I hope 2025 brings you more joy. I'm also feeling the grief of 'what could have been' this year, so sending all my love to you if you're not looking forward to the holidays. Take care of yourself, set boundaries where you need to. And don't lose hope for a better 2025!! Thank you for all of your support this year, and for helping me reach 10k this week!! eeeekkkkk!!! xxxxx

What size you wear?

❤❤❤

Great video, I love slow fashion, I am so happy to find your channel
