I wear dresses everyday just like you. I'm so glad I found this video. I'm 5 months pregnant with my 5th baby and I really want to live more simply. I have decluttered a lot but I still have so much.
I loved when you said you were trying to live a simple life for the glory of his kingdom. That resonated with me so much because I spend a lot of time managing my things taking care of kids clothes and everything that there is to do.
I really want to live even more simply
Love the wardrobe! I secondhand all my clothes. I wear Maxi dresses everyday with a plain top for modesty and sandals (mostly barefoot). In the fall I just add a cardigan sweater and flats. And winter a waterproof shell jacket over the cardigan and some rain/snow boots. My entire wardrobe consists of 5 dresses and 5 tops that accompany it. 2 cardigans. Rainjacket. Sandals. Flats. And the boots. For over 2 years now.
I wear skirts or dresses exclusively. These I pair with a cardigan, vest, or jacket or blazer. As a classic, almost daily I use a belt, pearls (both genuine and costume) and a scarf to feel put together. I often receive compliments on my appearance. I enjoy the art of dressing in a modest and feminine manner. A simple black skirt and a simple black dress are the mainstays of my wardrobe. Then I love a bright pop of colour in the sweater or jacket.
I love dresses too!! Lovely and classy and comfortable! Thanks for sharing!
This was fun to watch. I don’t see a lot of capsule wardrobe that are 80% dresses and honestly I’m an all dress kind of girl. It inspires me to not box it in to much
Getting things secondhand is really important to me, too, even if it's "cheaper" to buy an item new from Amazon or Shein or something like that. My favorite things to wear are black denim shorts that I got from my neighborhood Buy Nothing group and one of the tank tops/t-shirts I got from my apartment building's giveaway area. Giveaway areas are pretty common in low-to-middle-income apartment buildings in New York City because folks declutter their spaces all the time, and it's easier to put stuff out for your neighbors to take than it is to transport it all the way to a donation center. Thank you for sharing your closet with us!
I am so glad you are back! I get so excited when I see the notification bell that a new video is up! I love that you don't try and make commission off of the items you show us, and that you have a true minimal capsule wardrobe and a heart of contentment and gratitude. you are so authentic and I truly feel like I am sitting with a fellow sister in Christ when I watch your videos. Please keep making new videos
Your comment does my heart so much good. That is my hope and prayer, that we are just friends sitting chatting together!! And I never want other people to think I am just telling you about something because I'm making money from it! ;) Thank you for being here!
perfect!
It looks like you have a beautiful life. Your daughter is stunning and you're so,lovely.
Love your channel Joy, it’s been a huge blessing to me over the last few years ❤
My entire summer wardrope is dresses I have 7 and rotate through them
Such pretty choices! I love dresses!!
These pieces are so lovely Joy! I am looking forward to seeing you in each. The one you are wearing is gorgeous- so elegant. I am gravitating toward blue as well. 👍 Thank you for the inspiration! Love you!!! 💛🤗💛
Hi friend! Thanks for always being an encouragement! I do love the one I am wearing in the video, it feels very Doris Day from the 50's but I love it!!! I always love watching your videos and you are so professional and calming. I loved your declutter of your closet!
Love all your dresses! I have never been a jeans girl either...just don't find them comfortable. I mostly wear dresses and skirts. I too have mostly blue, lots of navy and stripes. I feel most comfortable in polo style dresses. I have tried thrifting online but after a few didn't fit I stopped.
I love your dresses especially paired with the jean jacket. I started wearing dresses, often with leggings, throughout the year. I love dressing modestly and pretty. It can feel a little odd in some situations, but I love it, my grandmother always wore dresses and beads no matter what she was doing, and I tell myself it worked for her, and it will work for me. Prayers to you and your family. You are a joy.
Hi Joy, I was searching videos on contentment and came across your channel. I already watched them all. You showed me what true contentment is. I was always chasing after the dollar. Never having enough and getting so upset when I would lose y money in the stock market or miss out in gains. It ate away at me like a cancer. I have so much to be thankful for and God has met all of my needs. Can you do a video on how you save money!! I want to find a balance so money does not control me. God bless.you and your family.
As always I get JOY when I see Joy post!! Love your wardrobe.
I love that you wear dresses! It inspires me to incorporate more into my daily wear.🌷
Praying for Africa right now! Praying for your family!!
Hi Joy! I was thinking about your contentment videos this weekend when I felt discontent with my closet. I revisited your videos and got out of that rut in a snap. Happy Monday and hugs from Puerto Rico!
Hey Joy! I love all of your dresses (especially the navy with the think, white stripes). I love wearing dresses too but I am working hard on not worrying about my 'squishy' arms and my 'had 10 babies' tummy. I wonder why I am always surprised by the areas of my life that I need God to help me with (spoiler alert: everything). It is great to hear from you. i better go check and see if I have any other videos of yours to watch. It is nearly 7 am here so little Murphy babies will start coming out any minute. Have a wonderful day and thank you for unintentionally encouraging me to wear more dresses (it is winter here though and cold, rainy and very windy). Finding warm dresses is VERY challenging.
Your wardrobe is so pretty! Thanks for showing us! In the winter my uniform is black paper bag pants and a black top. In the summer my uniform is black linen style pants and a black tank top. I love how different styles work for different people!
And hi Sanyu! 👋 💛🌻
This is the first time I am seeing your channel. I love your style and all of your dresses are beautiful. This year I have been on a self discovery journey, I have decided to let my gray hair grow out, no longer dying it, gone through my makeup to choose the best colors that look good on me, and I have decided to stop wearing pants and only wearing leggings to the gym and just mostly wear skirts and dresses since I feel the most comfortable in them. I buy most of my clothes from Shein, but I am trying Bloomchic, at times its hard to find the style that I like and fits my apple body shape.
I love your wardrobe!! Could you please do a what’s in your handbag video too? Love your content!
Miss your sweet spirit on here, Joy!❤
Love seeing your wardrobe and that it’s almost all thrifted! And your sweet little girl is sweet as sugar!!!
Blue is your color, Joy!🥰 I've discovered this past year+ that I am half classy/dressy and half casual...so, dark jeans with a blouse or sweater, or conversely, a crisp, white T-shirt with a beige skirt. I mostly love neutral colors, and fairly modest. I bought 2 pairs of skinny jeans (not REAL skinny jeans, but on me they are fitted) this winter on sale...and then the styles all changed and fitted jeans went out of style.😭 Since I always wear them with a longer cardigan, sweater or blouse, I will continue to wear them. I will proudly be out of fashion, until they wear out!😆 Very inspiring video.♥️🇨🇦
I just found your channel, and watching all of your videos. So helpful and inspiring!! I am sad to see that you are not filming anymore though 😭 much love, and thank you for wonderful Christian content ❤️
Very nice! The lined striped reminds me is the Pine and Smith.
Ok...comment number 3...I wear jeans and crew neck t-shirts in different colours. It isn't my favourite thing to wear. It is just what I wear. We are in lockdown again but when we aren't I go to Vinnies or Salvos and sometimes Savers. I LOVE to thrift! Now I am really going haha
How wonderful to see you back on RUclips. Greatly impressed by you, as always.
I have to comment again on the black dress!! You look SO good in that! It's a shame that it is hot to wear.
Listening again...loved this refresh on the ten item wardrobe. Thank you💕
I so enjoyed this! Thank you for sharing.
Joy
Thank you sweet friend! Thanks for understanding my need to step back from IG. I love being here on RUclips, and I'm trying to keep up with the comments because every single person here feels like family! ;)
I have been into blue too. So funny! Lovely wardrobe and inspiration.
Love all of your dresses and shoes ♥️.
I mostly wear skirts and dresses. My current favorite is a knee length kakhi skirt with a flowy flowered shirt. Hope asked me to say 'Hi!' to Sanyu. Thanks for sharing.😀
Love them all! The linen blue stripes from Target is my favorite ❤️
Your fans are waiting, Joy! 😘
I KNOWWWWWW!!!! AAAACCCKKK! My life! I don't know how you get so many great videos up! I am struggling!
@@JoyForney Hey friend. I just wanted to encourage you today. What you share is so valuable to so many people al around the world. Seeking Jesus and His ways can seem so hard when I keep looking at al my failings I am reminded (by people like you that les looking at myself and more at Jesus and God's Word) are what will really satisfy my soul (now....how about those videos you have edited?) xx
I clicked on this video so fast!
You are so kind! Love to see you here!!
I to enjoy a good dress. I try my best to search first at our thrift stores and don't always have "luck" unfortunately then I go to clearance/sale items. Love your dress you're wearing, the color is beautiful on you along with your dainty earrings. So classy!! :) And Hi Sanyu I really like your dresses the butterflies are super cute!!!
Thank you for sharing, Joy! Say hi to Sanyu for me!💕 We love and miss you all. Hope to see you guys soon!
Your videos always inspire me! Beautiful dresses, I looove your style. Thank you for sharing, God bless you ❤
Hi, I just found your Channel and now I am wondering where you are? Hope you and your Family is doing Fine. Greetings from Munich ❤
Love your videos Joy!! 😍
Hi sweet girl! She is just precious!! Love the haul and it is inspiring me to cut my stuff down. 💜☺️ for me it is becoming casual dresses and dainty earrings.
Hi Joy!!! 💐
All of your dresses are so pretty! I love dresses too. I mostly wear dresses with an occasional jean because my husband likes jeans also. I live in Florida and dresses are so much cooler. God bless you and your family 🌸
I wear dresses or skirts mostly. If I do need pants I like wearing palazzo pants. I find my clothes at thrift stores or Thread Up.
Your videos are my favorite and I look forward to them so much! I LOVE to thrift both online and in store. ♥️
Love all the blues! Blue has been a favorite of mine for years! Your choices are all classy, summery, and beautiful, sweet friend... and my daughters are the best thrifters and they are teaching their mama. =)
Skinny jeans aren’t cool? Oh no, I didn’t get the memo!😂😂😂It’s all I have! Love your wardrobe-fellow dress lover here!
hahah! There was some TikTok video that circulated that said that skinny jeans and side parts were no longer cool! ;) I don't buy it! But it was funny
I was just wondering (I know it is off the topic of the video lol) if you do Bible Journaling? Could you show us if you do? Or could you do a Bible study video. I think your viewers would enjoy those kinds of videos too.
You’re such a sweetie Sanyu!!
I’d love to see a try on! I’m a dress girl too and then a necklace that has meaning, so one gifted by one of my children or husband, one with a spiritual meaning or one of my necklaces from Amazima!
Beautiful!!
Thank you!!
Heeeey Sanyu❤️ Yes please do a try on! I love the simplicity of your closet, this is my dream closet & I’m working on it. I love to wear a Tshirt, jeans & flip flops. I’m on no buy right now but I find my goodies at Ross ☺️
I love your videos!
I mostly were skirts & dresses in summer, but where I live in Canada 🇨🇦, the temps can vary A LOT! Saturday was 35C and today it was 12C when I left the house for work. So I do keep a couple pairs of slacks and a couple cardigans for summer wear.
Hi Joy! My capsule wardrobe is 95 % dresses this fall winter and in the summer spring it's always 100%. I just made a capsule wardrobe for my daughter too!! I'm not sure while I waited years to just do it ...Anyways great video and thanks for sharing!
I thrift a lot too!
Nice capsule. I would imagine that you also wear aprons when cooking or doing “messy” work to help keep your dresses clean. Your dresses are lovely. Best wishes🤗
Yes, I do always wear an apron for all my cooking and messy cleaning!! I wish I had a pretty apron to show you, but sadly mine is pretty utilitarian blue with white stripes. ;)
I just stumbled upon this video and I really hope you start uploading again!! I love your content and you seem like someone I would honestly be great friends with in real life! I’m a stay at home mom to 1 my 6 month old and I love your style
I own way too much but pretty much just wear dresses as well!
Such a fun peek into your wardrobe! Mostly dresses are my uniform along with leggings and tunic-length top on occasion. I found that they work best for me a little over 10 years ago so they have become my signature. I'd like to wear jeans again one day but I usually find them uncomfortable and too hot. I think they look amazing with a nice blouse and heels though. I prefer to purchase most of my clothes off of Thred Up too. That way, I can buy quality items but for a lower price. I've had mostly good luck.
It's my first visit to your vlog. I was intrigued by the fact that you own so few clothes. I'm amazed but now that I know you like wearing dresses and you live in Uganda it is certainly more doable. I too am trying to simplify but it is hard for me to get rid of perfectly good items and I find I need a lot more because I live in place where we have 4 distinct seasons. I keep buying more too as I've lost weight. I always buy on sale and though I buy other things at the thrift I do not buy clothing. Perhaps one day I will find something I like but I go so seldom. Favourite or daily items to wear include comfortable trousers and a long sleeved pullover top and possibly a cardi/hoodie/jacket of some kind depending on the cold. In summer much the same with short sleeved tops and lightweight trousers. I also wear far more dresses in summer and dressier tops. I look forward to checking out more of your videos.
Hi!! So last year when I was in the States I still did a ten item wardrobe, but adjusted it for the season there. If you have lost weight, yes, of course you need to buy different things! You shouldn't feel guilty! If it was me I would make a list of what you want/need for each season, color palette, how many items you want/need, and go from there! It sounds quite fun to make a new wardrobe over time. I'd love to help you if you want the help!! ;)
@@JoyForney Wow, I might take you up on the kind offer one day. It may not be for awhile because I'm currently decluttering and trying to downsize possessions and do minor DIYs. Clothing will be the last item on my list of things to downsize. In the meantime I hope to lose more weight too. God bless you.🙌
I'm enjoying all of these new videos! I originally found you through the Pyne & Smith FB group:)
I feel the most like myself in dresses or a skirt and tee. Most of my wardrobe is thrifted with a few handmade items.
I make the vast majority of my clothes because being just 5 foot, not even petite sizes fit well enough.
Missing your content on here and IG! Hope all is well! Blessings!
Thank you Michelle! I hope to begin making content again soon. Thank you for the encouragement!! Much love from Uganda, Joy
All of these dresses are so beautiful, and I love how cohesive your style is. I would love to add a different color to my wardrobe, almost all of my dresses are black. One of the biggest issues I’ve had is finding fabrics that I like. Clothing can be such poor quality these days and the fabrics often feel very cheap.
On an unrelated note, how has the pandemic affected you and your community in Uganda?
Finding fabric that I like has been a big issue for me as well! It is difficult to find the fabric that I like! Lockdown in Uganda has not been easy. 2020 was rough for most Ugandans as we were locked down from even driving for 5 plus months. We have just entered another lock down here in UG which isn't as tight as before, but I worry about the community here not being able to work or go to school
Recently I’ve been wearing dresses and a few skirts almost entirely at home. I’ve even found a few good camping skirts for my tee shirts. Love love love the simple wardrobe and the blue. I’m actually wondering how dresses are going to work out during fall and winter here in South Eastern Kentucky 😕
Ohhh you live in Uganda?? That's good, I love your video
wow.. am Ugandan.. glad to meet you
where in uganda do you buy your dresses?
What about work out clothes, I think I recall you jog? Thank you for sharing! :)
I do have one pair of leggings and one exercise top (and some thrifted Nike's) I wear them every day to walk (no longer jogging at the moment) and then I wash them every 3 days.... not too exciting, but gets the job done!! ;)
Thanks just subscribed 💕
Nice wardrobe, what happened to your beautiful white frilly blouse?
I love your videos. I have too much clothes, but have a hard time letting go.
Love your videos, God bless you Joy.
I’d be very interested to know what items you got rid of and why.
I enjoyed your video and am wondering, do you have a house dress or wear an apron? How do you protect your clothes when working and cooking?
So I just found your channel.
This might be tmi but what about underwear and bras? Am at such a dilemma to pay more for my underwear/bras than my entire wardrobe lol!
Super helpful to see! Wondering where the Pyne & Smith dresses went? Do you prefer more budget-friendly items now?
Love your wardrobe!! Wanted to try out the slip dress, the link seems to take me to another product unfortunately.
Oh Im so sorry! Let me see if I can fix the link. :)
Thank you!! That would be helpful 😊
@@kinenebuna1639 I fixed it!
@joy forney do you have a link for the swimsuit you like?
Sure! I usually order one of these high neck tops.

Hope that helps!! :)
I happened to see that your shoe size is an 11. Me too! I have a few pairs of shoes that I would love to send your way. How do I send them to you? Address?
Just wondering if you're planning on posting any more videos?
Why did you get rid of your lovely Pyne and Smith dresses? 😭 those were high quality to last many years. I admired them, but they are very expensive.
I think she donated them to local friends
Ahhh your wardrobe is fabulous! Simple, beautiful, curated just for your life…absolutely perfect ❤️
