I would love to see you do a second round over your entire house and get rid of more stuff, because you never know how much you’ll change over time. Your closet is a perfect example
I've got a huge to do list. So, I'm going to sit here and watch you clean out your closet instead. Sounds like the most reasonable response to the situation. 😁
Just an idea- you can store seasonal clothing (like your pretty red dress) with your seasonal decorations. That way when you decorate next year you’ll pull it out and remember it! Love your series- I have twins too and you motivate me to stay on top of it.
I have truly found that decluttering a closet and finding your style is truly a journey. I have learned that a full closet is a sign that "it is time". There should always be space so the clothes can breathe and we can see our outfits. So hard to obtain. I will say I have gotten better at getting out of the fast fashion and sticking with basics that I can layer. Pinterest is a great place to find your style. Create a board and use that as a way to determine what you need to fill the gaps.
Hi Mai! My favorite fashion RUclipsr is Justine Leconte. She is a French fashion designer and has lots of videos on how to find which clothes look good on certain body types and skin colors. She has really helped me over the years find clothes that help me look my best and I absolutely recommend her for fashion advice!
I’m always convinced that when I clean areas of my house like this “I’ll keep It clean forever” “gosh, this sure feels nice having a clean tidy space, I’m gonna keep it this way no matter what, no excuses!” Then... time and kids happen. Annnnnnd we’re here 1 year later. 😅 ♥️ TY for these motivators!
Thrift stores are a great way to add new pieces! I know which brands I like & that fit well. It save me alot of money (especially when it's still in very good shape)
Good morning! I would LOVE to see you hit up your local thrift stores to find some new to you pieces! It could be a fun challenge, and also a great video!
I love these videos.You really get me in the mood to declutter all the time & im beyond thankful. Having two toddlers, crap piles up so fast. You help me manage it all.
Love your KonMai series and how you talk us through your thought process. Idea for your flow, windswept dress…I wear biker shorts under my short dresses so I don’t have to worry about the wind or bending over.
Great job! If you turn your hangers backward and then as you wear your clothing turn the hangers back to normal, then you can see what you're wearing and what you're not.
It’s probably too late but that first black dress looks beautiful on you. Great job with the closet! Sounds like you are moving towards a capsule wardrobe. My most worn outfit is leggings with merino wool tees.
I just recently did this but I forced myself to try everything on. It made me purge a lot more because it’s amazing to see how your style can change just within a year! I recommend doing that. Also for shorter dresses, bike shorts are amazing!
As a woman that is 5'9" and has been since middle school, I have never been able to buy body suits or jumpers that fit comfortably. Some people have told me if I buy higher end brands that the sizes vary more and its easier to find longer items but I just decided its not my style to wear any clothing of that nature. 😂
I’m only 5’6” but have a longer than normal torso. Last year I purchased my first one piece bathing suit. I was able to find long torso suits at Target and a number of other places. Reasonably priced and good quality.
I love watching closet decluttering videos but i always get mad over the fact that say that they never wear something but keep it ”just in case”🙄 I’m so happy to find someone who actually gets rid of clothes she doesn’t wear. And the video is over 10 min!!! It’s a crime if they are under 20 min. Thank you 💕
Mai these videos are so good! I’ve been totally inspired and have been slowly and surely Kon Mai-ing my garage, my kitchen and my living room. I can’t do the Kon Mari method, it feels too overwhelming and hokey. But Kon Mai is totally doable!!! 💕
Love your declutter videos...watching them as I clean today! I wasn't big into the cost of my wedding dress either! Mine was a $97 baby blue prom dress that fit my ideal wedding dress vibes! And sandals from the kids section..... oh memories!! That was 19.5 years ago....
Yessssss! So happy to see this! Can't wait to see what you accomplish😃 I've been needing to do this too but procrastinating knowing that clothes are the HARDEST for me to declutter. Thank you for motivating me to just do it already! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I am 72. I have fewer clothes than anyone I know. But you've inspired me to sell some jewelry I don't wear. I fill a box for Goodwill every week. Tina, Al's wife
Love this series! Instead of going straight to goodwill, you should check to see if your area has a Dress for Success Program or a Women’s Shelter as business casual clothes can go to a good cause as women get back on their feet!
I love every single video you put out. I like that you don't play distracting music in the background. I like when you talk about your favorites and dislikes. Keep it up. :)
Wonderful video! I think decluttering in the New Year is now a tradition for a lot of households! Keep up the good work! My fav places to find new clothing are thrift stores. In finding inspiration for nice dresses, keep in mind of the season or if it can be a transitional look. Don’t buy clothing based on a “special occasion”. As 5’4” height myself and in the 30 year old bracket, look for dresses that are knee length or maybe 2 inches lower. It will make you look more sophisticated. Another good tip is can this dress also incorporate your other clothes in your closet as well? I.E. Throw on the jean jacket on top of your dress.
Wow that's a really good declutter !! As much as I love to see how much clothes you're able to donate, I always hope to see you tossing whatever that can't be donated too even if it's often not much, those are by far the hardest ones to let go.
I feel like we would be friends in real life haha. I love how relatable you are and also a mom of 3 over here. Your videos always motivate me to get off my bum and get my ish together
Just a note to everyone.... your local hospital usually accepts WEDDING DRESSES as a donation, then they make them into dresses for stillborns. And dress the girls (different clothes are made for the boys). Our hospital did this for us back in 2018 when our daughter was stillborn. I still have the beautiful dress my little Olivia wore. I donated my wedding dress some a few mamas could have a beautiful dress for their babies. If you are wanting to get rid of your dress this is an awesome option to look into 💕
As always, I loved your decluttering video! My suggestion for a dress is to get one a little longer in length, it will serve you better than one you have to worry about raising your arms!
This is my favorite declutter video ever! It was so motivating and well done. I hope you will do more decluttering videos. By the way, I loved that first black dress on you.
,I hear you Mai about wedding dresses! I only paid $225 thru JCPenny's in the 80's for my dress - then added a bussle bow to The back & a few pearls. Definitely didn't wear it again!
Lucky you going to Sarasota. I've vacationed on the beach at Siesta Key. The white sands are beautiful! I can't wait to go back. Have a wonderful time! Loved the video. XXOO ❤️
Love your videos! You are an inspiration! A tip that I got from Cass (from Clutterbug) is to turn your hangers backwards and turn them as you wear items for easier future declutters.
I love your collective thanking and the commentary on things not bringing joy but still having a use. Your decluttering method is really useful. Did you watch your previous declutter before this to see if there were any items you were unsure of or storage solutions you were trying that you've maybe changed your mind on?
Omg mai I have that aerie wrap swimsuit too! It’s so comfy & flattering I bought it in a sage color!! Great Re-decluttering vid!! Motivating me to do the same!🥰👍🏻😘
mai, hyouc an put the shoes in a shadow box with the ribbon part from the dress flowing across the background. Hang it up in your closet and you can see it everyday when you get dressed or behind your clothes and you can see it when you're picking out your outfits or in your office
My absolute favorite kinds of videos! I just did mine again this weekend. I feel the need to go through my closet every 6 months 🤣 I just love the feeling of getting stuff out! You mentioned selling some of your items, do you have a Poshmark store?
Love these videos. They inspired me to start tackling pieces of my house and it’s been such a weight off my shoulders to declutter. So far I’ve done my closet, my shoes, our bathroom cabinet, linen closet and our attic storage. The kitchen cabinets are next on my list… need to build up some motivation because it’s so hard to declutter kitchen items for me. 😂
Maybe to get excited for clothing again you could start a pinterest moodboard and shop your dream wardrobe ❤ Capsule wardrobe videos on yt are also great!
Hey, you could have had some pieces altered. Like the blue dress, just take some fabric off the sides. Or the body tanktop, just cut off the lower part and hem it. It's super cheap to do that.
Hi Mai! I'm glad you are keeping the little bag! It's beautiful and you should take it to Serasota! (Sorry if that's the wrong spelling I'm from Australia!)
I would love to see you do a second round over your entire house and get rid of more stuff, because you never know how much you’ll change over time. Your closet is a perfect example
You make my Mondays! Please don’t stop decluttering I love these videos and they motivate me so much!
I def still got more to do!!! 😄😄
I've got a huge to do list. So, I'm going to sit here and watch you clean out your closet instead. Sounds like the most reasonable response to the situation. 😁

Love your series- I have twins too and you motivate me to stay on top of it.
Perfect timing. The bar in my closet just fell down from too many clothes. Just the inspiration I needed.
Having hangers in all the same color makes all the difference ....I loved those dresses you got rid off...so cute 🤩
You're the most fierce declutterer that I have watched. I love watching your videos and admire how unattached you are to things.

Thanks. I have no taste in anything and have no idea about anything clothing. 😕

This comment is my exact internal monologue and also the exact eventual life outcome 😅😅

Honestly, you’re one of the most underrated youtubers! I love your videos!

Same with the bloomers! I used to use leggings as a kid, then cheer shorts, then yoga shorts 😎
Great job! If you turn your hangers backward and then as you wear your clothing turn the hangers back to normal, then you can see what you're wearing and what you're not.
"Thank you everyone" 😂😂🥳 I love it! 🥰🥳

My green closet is an awesome account to follow ... Great video Mai
I’m honestly shocked that the last closet declutter was a year ago! It really felt sooner than that, time flies. Love these declutter videos!

Yesss! Just do it!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
That blue maxi deserves to be more then a beach cover up it looks so amazing on u
I love the windswept dress... Worth the trouble to keep it from blowing up ☺️
Yes, just wear bike shorts under it!
Yeah!!! I was just watching your old videos in desperate need of your clean out videos! 😂
Yay! Happy to finally post this then! I filmed before Christmas and finally got around to editing it :)
I LOVE how real you are!!! I might be a little obsessed with your declutter videos lol - thanks for sharing - ok breaks over, back to MY closet ;)
I am 72. I have fewer clothes than anyone I know. But you've inspired me to sell some jewelry I don't wear. I fill a box for Goodwill every week. Tina, Al's wife
Omg I love the target ribbed tees I had no idea they had them in long sleeve, they are my go to shirts
You did such a good job making this the wardrobe that you actually use! Love the way you edited the video too! :)
Best RUclips ever! Love your honesty and humor!!

Love the Kon Mai method! It's so much easier, faster and more practical than Kon Mari. Thanks!!

You inspire me to clean out me closet! Tomorrow!!!
The speech to your clothing makes me feel like you would be a great actress. You had me laughing!
You did great. The purse is tooled leather. When I put the keep away I make a second pass and make myself try every thing on.
Wow! Great job, Mai! I love watching you!!! We seriously could be besties.
I feel like we would be friends in real life haha. I love how relatable you are and also a mom of 3 over here. Your videos always motivate me to get off my bum and get my ish together
That Kate Spade is a collectible and worth a good bit too! You should hang on to it for sure💙🍀💙🍀

This was an awesome one. I love a good declutter. 😊
This series is so inspiring.
As always, I loved your decluttering video! My suggestion for a dress is to get one a little longer in length, it will serve you better than one you have to worry about raising your arms!
I love your wardrobe! I wish i had that many clothes. Or at least a nice variety
Good job! It always amazes me how much clothing people have 😳 huge footprint.
I like Cato’s clothing.
This is my favorite declutter video ever! It was so motivating and well done. I hope you will do more decluttering videos. By the way, I loved that first black dress on you.
,I hear you Mai about wedding dresses! I only paid $225 thru JCPenny's in the 80's for my dress - then added a bussle bow to The back & a few pearls. Definitely didn't wear it again!
this was beyond satisfying !
Lucky you going to Sarasota. I've vacationed on the beach at Siesta Key. The white sands are beautiful! I can't wait to go back. Have a wonderful time! Loved the video. XXOO ❤️
Same fave underwear and good job decluttering!
Cougar town was the best! I think we are similarly aged, (I’m 38) so I am with you there!
I love your decluttering videos, I’m so happy you did a new closet clean out!
I have that Aerie suit in a really pretty royal ish blue and love it! They make Tall sizes and I just love their line reverently!
Recently * 🤣
Totally with you on the pocketed leggings. There is NO other way to go.
I just did my closet and I am so surprised how much stuff I had. Thank you so much for the inspiration ❤️. I have more then half of my closet empty 🙂
Love your videos! You are an inspiration! A tip that I got from Cass (from Clutterbug) is to turn your hangers backwards and turn them as you wear items for easier future declutters.
I sold my wedding dress as well! I have my vail and it is special to me. 😊
LOVE these videos!!! Could you please link the divided fabric storage bins?
This was great video. I really enjoyed watching it!
Amazing! Great job Mai! I'm jealous. My closet is a disaster and really needs me to do this.
Just celebrated my 41st wedding anniversary and I still have my wedding shoes. Never get rid of them 😀
I love your collective thanking and the commentary on things not bringing joy but still having a use. Your decluttering method is really useful.

Wooww what a satisfied video! Loved it!
Hi Mai. LOVE this video. TYSM for this video. AMAZING!!!! Love you. Please stay extra safe and hydrated. God bless. HUGS
My absolute favorite kinds of videos! I just did mine again this weekend. I feel the need to go through my closet every 6 months 🤣 I just love the feeling of getting stuff out!

Same I hate decluttering the kitchen! Best way I got it done was I did one cabinet or drawer a day .
Maybe to get excited for clothing again you could start a pinterest moodboard and shop your dream wardrobe ❤ Capsule wardrobe videos on yt are also great!
Declattering starts after 7 min. Thanks 💕
Amazing declutter pile
Hey, you could have had some pieces altered. Like the blue dress, just take some fabric off the sides. Or the body tanktop, just cut off the lower part and hem it. It's super cheap to do that.
Hi Mai! I'm glad you are keeping the little bag! It's beautiful and you should take it to Serasota! (Sorry if that's the wrong spelling I'm from Australia!)
Have you seen 'A Small Wardrobe'? She is a minimalist that talks a lot about her wardrobe. Maybe you will like her too.
My favorite videos of yours!
🤠🎉🎉 Those cowboy boots!
New to your channel,loving your vlogs, , hi from the UK
Great video, Mai! ❤❤
In suggest to try to change your mindset this year. From how to declutter best to how to by less.
Lol, you are the first person who mentioned they also have period panties, i thought i was the only one😄
Great job on ur closet
The closet looks great!
Great job! You can always hang your leggings like you do your jeans!
Fantastic declutter!
Excuse me!!! I LOVE Cougar town!!! I've actually got the whole show in DVD!
PENNY CAN!!!
Keep your short dresses Mai, they look cute, just add some short bike pants with them. Awesome job decluttering!!!!
Loot for "A small wardrobe"!
I love leggings with pockets, too. Great video!
OMG! You have to go to get some crème puffs from Choulala’s in St. Armand’s Circle, Sarasota! They are SO GOOD!! Banana Fosters was my fav. ❤️
I love that purse!!!😍😍
Loved this video! Looks AMAZING!
great video😍i did a full declutter last year. so my resolution is to buy only key pieces to ward robe this year. good luck to me🤣
I love your videos,kisses from Greece
