If you've been working on trying to be more intentional when shopping, have been trying to figure out which trends and aesthetics you *actually like*, perhaps have been working on curbing impulse shopping, or maybe just want to really get to the heart of your personal style, today's video is for YOU! I'm sharing the 12 shopping rules that I've been using to help me spend less and buy more intentionally, catering to *my* personal style, lifestyle, and what works for me :) And if you have any rules or checklist items for shopping, please share them below!! 🫶
Something it took me ages to learn is that I don’t need an outfit in the exact same colors as the inspo I saw. Maybe the person has a slouchy pink sweater and black pants but I have a slouchy blue sweater and grey pants. Unless the outfit is 100% about the colors, I can usually recreate something very similar using things I already own.
You're glowing in this video! Something I like to keep in mind too is color. I've noticed that I may like a color, but the tone isn't working for my skin tone as well as it could. Clothes are kind of like the makeup of the body
This video was SO well done! I was a huge shopping addict (still recovering.. still have my moments 😭) and I consider a lot of the rules you apply. Two that are super important to me and more unique to me: Will my chest fit in this? If it does, will it be “too much” for the situation I’d wear this in? Does the item (in my size) have a zipper in the back and will it actually zip up because of my chest? If it hurts my eyes because the pattern is too wild (usually smaller checkered, not traditional gingham lol I have it very well identified), even if I love it, I can’t have people’s eyes hurting when they look at me 😅
Ahh thank you so much!!! 💖 I love your checklist items; those are both great ones to consider 🙌 and i totally feel you on the 'too much' for the situation hahaha
Where you been? Good to see you back. I turn 61 this January and I trying to do more intentional thrift shopping, but I have been doing pretty good last year of not shopping thru September to November and finally did some shopping in December for Christmas presents for Granddaughter. I can relate to the girls big time because I am a 34H (😤) and it kept me out of a lot of cool finds. My goal is dopamine dressing this winter because I need the mood swing. I am trying to not save statement items for special occasions or events but figure a way to wear them to the grocery store if need be. Thanks for sharing and blessings to you and all in the new year.
Great advice Jess! I just bought an expensive jumper from Everlane after reading great reviews. My verdict is that it’s itchy and there’s fluff falling out everywhere. I’m sending it back for a refund! If it’s not comfortable and just sits in my wardrobe there’s no point in keeping it!
😊 I was wondering where were you yesterday, like “I haven’t seen anything from Jessica in a while” 😅 and i just needed this video, i’m tired of buying on impulse, i’m full on clothes i don’t wear at all… i’ll follow these rules and control myself 😅
Yeaaah it had been a while 😅 I probably should've shared a little update on my community page, but I took a pretty hefty social media / creating break for the holidays that ended up extending into most of January. I really wanted to figure out what I wanted the direction of my channel and what I wanted to create and share as we headed into a new year. I felt like I had to completely step away to figure out where my passions and interests were laying these days, and it's so hard to break out of the style and the type of content I had *been* making for the last few years, so I thought a big break where I could brainstorm, get reinspired by the world around me, and really think on it all would be good :) And I think it really was SO NEEDED. I feel so excited about all the ideas and the new changes I'll be sharing in my upcoming videos and I can't wait to share them all with you guys :') But anyways!! That's my little update on where I've been hahaha. I'm so happy this video came right when you needed it! I hope it helps on your style journey!!! 💛
Jessica, this is a super great video. These questions are very helpful and really allowed me to put my spending habits into perspective. I think I am very easily influenced to buy something because I like the model/photograph/styling/image and I never realized that until this video! Mind blown! ❤
Yaaaay your back! I follow all those rules you suggested! And if I still can’t decide if I should get something I call my mom😂 I’m 26 but she has great style and I trust her opinion. So you can always phone a friend/person who’s fashion opinion you trust!
Sitting over here really convicted because I know I have a black dress Sitting in my closet with the tags still on, "just in case" I have to attend a funeral 🙃
I tend to buy a lot of things that I’m on the fence about. I’ve been trying hard lately to only buy something if it’s 100% a yes! If there’s a reason to be unsure, then it’s a no
Should have seen this video 4 hours ago when I was taking clothes out to put in a box to donate. The clothes I thought I was going to donate are still in my closet. 🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️ my closet is still full, even though I took a lot out. Oh well. 🤷🏼♀️
The breasts are the biggest issue for me, I feel very limited for not being able to wear many designs because they don´t fit well in my bust because of their size, that´s sad.

Not shopping but decluttering. Give myself a time frame 6mo - 1y to wear it. If no, bye! I rotate drawers and switch hanger directions to delineate
Sitting over here really convicted because I know I have a black dress Sitting in my closet with the tags still on, "just in case" I have to attend a funeral 🙃
I think a black dress is one of the only exceptions for this!! They're so practical for a variety of occassions ❤

I tend to buy a lot of things that I’m on the fence about. I’ve been trying hard lately to only buy something if it’s 100% a yes! If there’s a reason to be unsure, then it’s a no

Hey just wondering if you are okay, your voice sounds a little different?
I'm okay! :) I've been trying to be more casual in my videos and not stressing about trying to make everything sound 'perfect', so maybe that's it??
@@JessicaNeistadt I'm living for the new change
The breasts are the biggest issue for me, I feel very limited for not being able to wear many designs because they don´t fit well in my bust because of their size, that´s sad.
My rule is if I can’t pay for it in cash then I can’t get it.
