I regret buying: plants, planners, planner supplies, lots of colorful pens, purses, my brand new car (paying it off tomorrow!!!!!), notebooks, craft paper, high end makeup, and Black Friday stuff. Ugh.
Same! Ive had so many planners, purses, wallets, and plants. I’ve stopped purchasing all of them but I wish I knew then what I know now. No thing will fill that void.
You are so mature. Furniture purchases are a big regret for me. I no longer allow people or the media dictate what I " have" to have in my house. I love the look of a room that's not so crowded with unnecessary furniture.
As a mom, I regret purchasing tons of baby items like a swing, bathtub, bouncer, crib, baby bullet etc. that weren't used. They took up so much space. We use reusable cloth diapers like you mentioned and it's the best.❤
I was told I’d regret not going to my high school prom since it’s just apparently such a pivotal and key moment in every teen’s life. Literally never even thought about it ever again past the day after it happened. I honestly just thought it was a pointless waste of money and time and energy. I’m not very social and didn’t know the whole school and i could just chill with just the people I actually knew later like any regular day. Many people acting and spending like it has to be perfect like their wedding day. I’m not making fun of those who take it seriously (do u) but goddamn is that thing overrated.
I regret buying a ton of scrapbook supplies. My infatuation with this hobby lasted about a year and in that time I spent literally $500 + on supplies and storage and traveling cases for it all. I hung on to it all for years because I spent sooo much money. Every time I saw it I felt guilty for not doing anything with it. But, I realized I wasn’t a fan of a scrapbook anyway. Not my style. That was 14 years ago and I have never regretted giving it all away.
I regret buying so many beauty/makeup products. At the end of the day, they expire before you can use them up. I have donated hundreds of beauty products and I plan on doing a no buy in 2020. I want to have a more simple/minimal beauty routine and collection.
In my early 20’s, I spent so much money on clothes. In my teens I worked at Ross & spent so much on clothes using my employee discount. I wished I had saved all that $. 😭
Same! Ross was my first job. I worked there for 3 years. It was a shopping spree every 2 weeks. It was even better working customer service and buying the returns that were .49!!
Love This! 💜 Also I went to Homecoming once and Prom three times and I never paid over $20 for any of the dresses. I purchased second hand or after the season was over for next season. I also donated them to a group home that had their own prom and needed prom dresses for their teens. I'm so happy they went to a great cause.
I regret buying sooo many clothes, both for me and my daughter. I used to work at Ross so every time I worked almost I would come home with something, it was bad 😩😩 now I’m slowly decluttering and trying to get rid of everything! I aspire to live a more minimalistic life and get so much inspiration from your videos. ❤️
i regret purchasing so many t shirts, i used to go to hot topic all the time and do the buy 2 get one free or whatever and ended up with way too many. i also regret anything i bought from bath and body works, i don't think all the scents are necessary anymore.
I regret spending so much on my wedding dress. You get wrapped up in the fairytale, but once the day is over that dress worth thousands has no other purpose except to collect dust in the closet. Its hard to resale a used dress.
We just took away our coffee table, and I am loving the space it created, plus our couch all the seats recline, and the coffee table was in the way of reclining.
I regret buying to many scented candles!!! It's just ridiculous! And also that I have so many decor and dvds! Thank you so much for your work ! I love your videos!
I'm still buying dvds now girl!!! Hahah but I'm a huge film fan...I actually rewatch films many times. I had over 1000 but I recently downsized to just a special curated library....many if the films I love are not available on streaming. Stuff gets added and removed off there constantly.
I like having hard copies of things. All of my digital stuff from years ago is gone somehow, even from iTunes or computers where an external hard drive wasn’t compatible between computers (even 32 bit to 64 but windows). Paying monthly for streaming services isn’t necessarily cheaper.
Any furniture you don’t need want get rid of it. The negative energy and the reminder does not do well. Our surroundings should make us feel happy and anything else must go!!!
I also regret purchasing fake jewellery back in the day. My friends and I used to wear so much of that fake crap, especially to parties and stuff as teenagers. I remember how those earrings and rings would make my ears and fingers go green. Such a waste of money! So glad I've grown to appreciate real jewellery, and I do love earrings and rings, so now I only buy small/delicate pieces that I really love on a very rare basis.
I felt the plants one. I just don’t have the time nor the energy to look after a gazillion plants. I also really regret that I bought a ton of Mac lipsticks that I hardly got through and then stumbled on cruelty free beauty shortly after.
I regret buying nail supplies (nail polishes, cuticle cutters, etc) at Target, CVS, beauty supply stores!! I even bought the UV light for gel nails. I spent hundreds of dollars of the stuff and I only use maybe a clear top coat, one nail clipper, a cuticle pusher, and my crystal nail file. 😩
I regret buying a ton of thrifted stuff especially clothes instead of just saving the money. Thrifted clothes are cheap but after a while you outgrow them, and they are so boring.
Stephanie Nicole YES!!! I’ve spent a ridiculous amount of money on both, among other crap! It wasn’t until a few weeks ago when I was FLAT BROKE, struggling to get to payday, that I looked around at all of the new/unopened/excess of crap, that it’s all a waste of $$. I could’ve had that in my pocket when I needed it most.
I am like you when it comes to clothes. Idc about labels & brands. Someone once made a good argument about fake items. They said that anyone who has a real one will know right away when something is fake, if you post it pple with the real one's will comment & let you know, even friends will look up what the real items look like, so if you're ok with letting pple know it's fake go ahead but it you want to pass it off as real get ready to be embarrassed by someone. So nice of you to give them the dress for a low price. I gave mine's away to my cousin because she couldn't afford anything.
I definitely regret many things I purchased. Now that I have cut back a lot and pretty much do most of my shopping online, I feel super stressed when going to a mall or even Target. It’s just too much stuff. 😂
A lot of this sounds like growing pains, I feel like most of us have been there with the cheap and bright clothes, bags, makeup, etc, because teens and people in their early 20s aren't grown and the rational part of their brain isn't developed, so they shop and buy and keep up with trends... I stopped all of that by 26. I only wear black because it makes shopping (when I have to replace items) much simpler and I have adult money to buy quality items that won't rip to shreds after a couple of months. It's all apart of growing up :)
I am 20 years old and i want to have this type of lifestyle and im starting to get rid of my stuff to go for a better place and i notice i have wasted a lot of money. And i watch your videos and i love them! Thank you for letting me learn
a couple of months ago, I got a 12 cup camping coffee percolator for $13...not wanting to be preparing single coffee every hours...( I love coffee) so I thought ok, let me just get this.....UGH....coffee grounds spill all over so you are drinking cups of mud....just got rid of it but oh $13 gone....like you said, live and learn but I should have known better...keep these videos coming, any tables I have at home at the moment are all second hand....I would never buy things like that from a store new....except a couch and our neighbor gave us our couch...his gf had purchased it new, they broke up he wanted all evidence of her gone, so we got the couch :) and with my next move in March we are downsizing from 2 bdrm 2 bth to a one bdrm and 1 bth... I am donating 10 pieces of furniture I can't wait!!! :) If I lived alone I would be in a Studio....your apt is beautiful and huge
i regret all the purchases i made thinking it would make me a cooler person, like a french press when i don’t like coffee, short dresses when i’m not confident in my legs, or hair straighteners and blow dryers. now i only spend money on things that are necessities or that are high quality, last long and get used.
I literally paid $2 at THE DEB for my prom dress and then maybe $5 for the shoes. I didn’t like it but I didn’t want to spend money on something I was gonna wear once.
My favorite money saver/ eco-friendly swap has been reusable pads, menstrual cup, and a safety razor. I really regret all the makeup and eyeshadow palates I use to buy. Such a waste of money 😥
mayhem mayhem yes they got that right! I’ve only seen online shops like rent the runway. Nothing local to try it on. It’s still pretty pricey since they focus on high end brands which is not my focus at all. I’m not brand oriented. I’ll keep searching. I’d love to wear the dress tucked in tags and then return it afterwards but I know that’s an unethical solution.
I’ve been downsizing my makeup/ beauty products and it feels so good! I basically only use the same 4 items anyway. I put those items in my everyday cosmetic bag and everything else in other bags. Every so often I go through them to see what I have used. If I have not used it I get rid of it. My goal is for all the makeup items I use to fit into just one cosmetic bag. I’m almost there! I LOVE reusable pads. So much more comfy, saves money:)
I love your videos Kyra 💕 I regret buying a lot of things, but mainly movies, CD’s, and purses/wallets, and so much clothing that I didn’t need and a lot of times only wore for one occasion.
Last year I went HAM with the retail therapy and bought sooo many skincare items, only to be caught in a cycle of being able to figure out whats breaking me out! This yr im going back to simple stuff that works for me. I felt so obligated and almost stupid not trying new things they have at ulta. I realized thats what they want you to think!! I also have ~100 B&BW items I got for super cheap at their sale but still its so much! Silver lining? Im literally set for at least 2 yrs of smelling good hahaha
omg finally! i really hate big brand with big logo on their products because i feel like i'm being too into showing what i can buy with my money like wanted to show off how rich i am lol at the end, that kind of products is ugly tbh. sometimes it just not go along well with what you want to wear. for me, i regret purchasing eyeshadow palette. for now, i only have one! one palette is enough!! and i'm trying so hard to reduce my lipmatte. i can't find any product which is good for my lips including the color. i have a very dry chappy lips. once ive tried this fake lips product my friend own it, and it ruined my lips. i never try any fake lips product anymore. can anybody suggest me a goood lipmatte for dry skin? i do wear lipbalm but still i love lipmatte. talking about clothes. i live in a dorm (uni student) and i only have white shirt for my daily wear (not including clothes for classes etc) and i only have like 6-7 white shirts short sleeves. i'm a muslim so i need to wear long sleeves to go out. and it's very convenience to have only white shirt for your house shirt or room shirt or whatever we call it. easy to clean if there is stain because its white. so i dont have to worry about the color is ruined when i try to clean the stain. and i am on my way to wear only plain basic color to go out but its not easy because i love wearing color outfits. tht's all from me :)
I regret purchasing this cabinet for DVD player etc. I was just just looking at it the day before I watched this video and said I don’t want this anymore. I use it for a book container but you can’t see the books. I just hate it and I’m getting rid of it. I also have a crystal cabinet I don’t want anymore, but I also need to get rid of the crystal. I feel you, I understand. Thank you for helping me see what I need to do. Jean from Arizona 🦎🌞🏜🌴🌵🦂🐍
I regret buying a tiny Christmas pillow filled with balsam fir... just this afternoon! I had to have this thing, even though I had decluttered my Christmas decorations and didn't want any more. So I brought it home and kept squeezing the pillow and REALLY inhaling the lovely aroma, trying to convince myself I was glad I bought it. A couple hours later, I started to sneeze and my throat and lungs got really itchy and I thought what the heck... OMG I think it's the pillow! So I grabbed it and ran down to the basement and left it there. Within the hour, I felt completely better. I suddenly remembered that I had been allergic to fir Christmas trees when I was little. Now I'm spending my time wondering what I'm going to do with it...lesson learned! :-)
I regret purchasing CD's and DVD's, I barely listen to the CDs cause I'd rather use my phone, and I didn't even watch any of the movies ever. Also decor, especially when I kinda fell in love with Lego and Funko and would buy so many figures I felt overwhelmed just by thinking how much time it'd take me to clean everything up.
❤️❤️❤️ I’m in the very very beginning stages of this wasteful lifestyle. Everything you say makes sense like “home” to me... I do find myself loving my home decor... I have tons of fashion fake jewelry that I REGRET purchasing.., it’s pretty but reality is, I’m not comfortable with them on & I don’t know what to do with it all now. I don’t want to throw away. And YES, I always wear my neutrals over everything else, I like comfort over fashion Any day, Every Day, All Day❗️
this is so interesting! u find a ton of stuff regretful that i definitely use in my house. but this gives me a different perspective and i love it. my only question is do u not find walls to be too plain without decor and where do u put the plants you do have if u don’t use tables? thanks!
I regret purchasing Forever 21 clothes when I graduated high school and finally had a job where I can spend money on clothes. Their clothes are cheap and don't last long at all. I wasted so much money buying $10 shirts and jeans and I no longer own any of it. It was all wasted money. I'd rather pay a bit more now for quality.
I regret purchasing any clothing items that were cheaply made--what a waste of money. Now, I would spend a few hundred dollars on a well-made blazer that will last for years. As far as a wardrobe, I do not like wearing neutrals. Jewel tones look best on me. Black and white clothing items are my base, and then I throw in red, blue, purple, etc. You look great in the colors that you choose. Ruby red is my neutral.
My entire 20s I just wasted money. Clothes, mostly. Even lived in a musty apartment and had to throw everything out after (no amount of vinegar could help me). Had to build my wardrobe back up. Blah!!
I just did a whole house declutter, I filled my dodge journey to the brim with bags of donations. I donated anything that I didn't use or that didnt fit me. Jeans, kitchen utensils, dog toys, jewelry, If I didn't use it, it was gone. I regret thrifting/antiqueing and always buying somthing no matter if I really wanted that item or not. I wish I could have that money back!😫 At the the end of the day I learned a good lesson, though.
I relate to this so much! Especially #10 I had so many different patterns and colors that never went together and it was ridiculous! I haven’t been on RUclips for a while but I’m definitely turning notifications on for your videos because I forgot how much I loved them. Once I’ve spent $600 at Target on cheap clothes for me and my boyfriend and dog items. Silly me lol
I purchased mine from target in the college section. They have so many other neutral colors as well, and the price is very reasonable along with the quality 👍🏼 very warm.
I love Adidas I own one pair is all I need I'm also not a fan of alot of jewelry I only own one 14k gold chain and one pair 14k gold of stud earrings. And I also hate Logo clothing.
I'm with you on the diaper bag instead of a purse when kids enter the picture. Since I've had my son three years ago, that's all I carry when need be. I am not going to have a purse and a diaper bag. On the other hand, regarding DVDs, most of the shows I love (i.e. old sitcoms), I can't find on netflix or my android box etc., so I find myself having to buy the DVDs. I wish I could find them elsewhere, but I can't, so DVDs are my only option. And I watch those shows repeatedly!
My bank acct has a spending tab and I blew $15000 on mainly things I dont need. Ya I know, scary. I could have been so much RICHER rn if I didn’t practically medicate myself with shopping. This year is going to be different :)
I regret purchasing a ton of activity books when I was in elementary. Honestly I didn’t even use them and they were a waste of space in my dresser/drawer. And I kinda agree with you on the “colorful” clothing but for me, it’s notebooks, in my smiggle phase I purchased a ton of them with the colorful and complexed designed pages but i realized that I would rather go with neutural notebooks (especially the ones with lined pages).
I regret buying: plants, planners, planner supplies, lots of colorful pens, purses, my brand new car (paying it off tomorrow!!!!!), notebooks, craft paper, high end makeup, and Black Friday stuff. Ugh.
monica c I love my planner, cause I forget a lot of things.. glad I never forgot my name yet 😂
Same! Ive had so many planners, purses, wallets, and plants. I’ve stopped purchasing all of them but I wish I knew then what I know now. No thing will fill that void.
Ohh I feel you on the planner stuff. 😭
You are so mature. Furniture purchases are a big regret for me. I no longer allow people or the media dictate what I " have" to have in my house. I love the look of a room that's not so crowded with unnecessary furniture.
As a mom, I regret purchasing tons of baby items like a swing, bathtub, bouncer, crib, baby bullet etc. that weren't used. They took up so much space. We use reusable cloth diapers like you mentioned and it's the best.❤
I regret purchasing my prom dress and I regret going to prom it was boring lol
Faith Can See I didn’t go to my prom or graduation. I thought I could stay home & clean instead
I was told I’d regret not going to my high school prom since it’s just apparently such a pivotal and key moment in every teen’s life. Literally never even thought about it ever again past the day after it happened. I honestly just thought it was a pointless waste of money and time and energy. I’m not very social and didn’t know the whole school and i could just chill with just the people I actually knew later like any regular day. Many people acting and spending like it has to be perfect like their wedding day. I’m not making fun of those who take it seriously (do u) but goddamn is that thing overrated.
I regret purchasing makeup. I had so much it was ridiculous 🙅🏼♀️🙅🏼♀️
me too
Me too.
Me too
I regret buying a ton of scrapbook supplies. My infatuation with this hobby lasted about a year and in that time I spent literally $500 + on supplies and storage and traveling cases for it all. I hung on to it all for years because I spent sooo much money. Every time I saw it I felt guilty for not doing anything with it. But, I realized I wasn’t a fan of a scrapbook anyway. Not my style. That was 14 years ago and I have never regretted giving it all away.
Ditto, just gave all mine last month to a friends daughter. Hung on for a decade because of time and cost. 🤦♀️
I clicked on this video to hear you say "purchasin". I dont know why I just love the way you say it 😄
I regret buying so many beauty/makeup products. At the end of the day, they expire before you can use them up. I have donated hundreds of beauty products and I plan on doing a no buy in 2020. I want to have a more simple/minimal beauty routine and collection.
In my early 20’s, I spent so much money on clothes. In my teens I worked at Ross & spent so much on clothes using my employee discount. I wished I had saved all that $. 😭

Same! Ross was my first job. I worked there for 3 years. It was a shopping spree every 2 weeks. It was even better working customer service and buying the returns that were .49!!
You are wise beyond your years. So proud of you for not giving into the superficial stuff
Love This! 💜 Also I went to Homecoming once and Prom three times and I never paid over $20 for any of the dresses. I purchased second hand or after the season was over for next season.

I like these longer videos. Makes me feel more calm when it isn't rushed like on many other channels!
I like longer videos, too.
Ahhhh. Same here. 😌
Yeah me too
i regret purchasing so many t shirts, i used to go to hot topic all the time and do the buy 2 get one free or whatever and ended up with way too many. i also regret anything i bought from bath and body works, i don't think all the scents are necessary anymore.
I regret purchasing my tattoo. Now I‘m spending even more to get it removed.
Same with wedding dresses! I got a gorgeous Halston dress for my wedding for only $70 on Poshmark!
Decor items!! I thought I was the only one thinking that they’re dust collectors!😂
I regret spending so much on my wedding dress. You get wrapped up in the fairytale, but once the day is over that dress worth thousands has no other purpose except to collect dust in the closet. Its hard to resale a used dress.
I regret buying tons and tons of makeup that never got used much! I also wish I had all the $ back that I used to spend on getting my nails done!
Fast food! I still have a problem with it unfortunately🙁 (sighs) lol!
We just took away our coffee table, and I am loving the space it created, plus our couch all the seats recline, and the coffee table was in the way of reclining.
I regret buying to many scented candles!!! It's just ridiculous! And also that I have so many decor and dvds! Thank you so much for your work ! I love your videos!
You are so sweet for making sure that young lady had a Prom Dress. You have such a giving heart.
I'm still buying dvds now girl!!! Hahah but I'm a huge film fan...I actually rewatch films many times. I had over 1000 but I recently downsized to just a special curated library....many if the films I love are not available on streaming. Stuff gets added and removed off there constantly.
I like having hard copies of things. All of my digital stuff from years ago is gone somehow, even from iTunes or computers where an external hard drive wasn’t compatible between computers (even 32 bit to 64 but windows). Paying monthly for streaming services isn’t necessarily cheaper.
Walking around without a purse/ wallet makes me think of being a carefree child! I might have to try it! ☺
Any workout equipment. A jump rope, pull up bar, fascia blaster massager, and weights. Never use them, like ever.
Hahaha I loved the comparison of having extra furniture to place in your home with playing tetris 😂
Any furniture you don’t need want get rid of it. The negative energy and the reminder does not do well. Our surroundings should make us feel happy and anything else must go!!!
I also regret purchasing fake jewellery back in the day. My friends and I used to wear so much of that fake crap, especially to parties and stuff as teenagers. I remember how those earrings and rings would make my ears and fingers go green. Such a waste of money! So glad I've grown to appreciate real jewellery, and I do love earrings and rings, so now I only buy small/delicate pieces that I really love on a very rare basis.
I felt the plants one. I just don’t have the time nor the energy to look after a gazillion plants. I also really regret that I bought a ton of Mac lipsticks that I hardly got through and then stumbled on cruelty free beauty shortly after.
Jacqueline Colette the same exact thing happened to me with Mac and Maybelline! and I went cruelty free like 2 months later. Such a waste
Self-help books. I didn’t even read them! 😆
maryann papandrea read them 😂
Fitness gadgets, Sets of nail polish, Sets of lipstick, 10 pairs of black leggings. Pointless lol
I regret buying nail supplies (nail polishes, cuticle cutters, etc) at Target, CVS, beauty supply stores!! I even bought the UV light for gel nails. I spent hundreds of dollars of the stuff and I only use maybe a clear top coat, one nail clipper, a cuticle pusher, and my crystal nail file. 😩
I regret buying a ton of thrifted stuff especially clothes instead of just saving the money. Thrifted clothes are cheap but after a while you outgrow them, and they are so boring.
i regret buying purses and planners this year smh! 🤦🏻♀️
Stephanie Nicole YES!!! I’ve spent a ridiculous amount of money on both, among other crap! It wasn’t until a few weeks ago when I was FLAT BROKE, struggling to get to payday, that I looked around at all of the new/unopened/excess of crap, that it’s all a waste of $$.

Stephanie Nicole I have one purse and use a tiny planner . I forget so I use it for notes
I am like you when it comes to clothes. Idc about labels & brands. Someone once made a good argument about fake items.

So nice of you to give them the dress for a low price. I gave mine's away to my cousin because she couldn't afford anything.
I sold my coffee table last year. Best decision EVER!!
I regret buying so much expensive makeup.. just because it’s no different to affordable!
Lia Oldfield and makeup expires so fast
You make me want to donate my whole house pretty much lol! But where to start😂 such an inspiration love your videos!
I definitely regret many things I purchased. Now that I have cut back a lot and pretty much do most of my shopping online, I feel super stressed when going to a mall or even Target. It’s just too much stuff. 😂

How do you not feel guilty when decluttering items that you spent your hard earned money on or people have gifted you?
Gifts dont represent your love or appreciation for the giver
you thank them and you continue if they don't spark joy anymore ( marie kondo technique and it worked so well for me )
I am 20 years old and i want to have this type of lifestyle and im starting to get rid of my stuff to go for a better place and i notice i have wasted a lot of money. And i watch your videos and i love them! Thank you for letting me learn

I regret quite a few things I've purchased 🙄 But I do have alot of stuff Kyra would have a panic attack in my house 😣 HELP ! 🤪😂 lol
i regret all the purchases i made thinking it would make me a cooler person, like a french press when i don’t like coffee, short dresses when i’m not confident in my legs, or hair straighteners and blow dryers.

What about weddings I don’t want a new dress or more junk in my closet. Can I just not go? Lol
Are there rent a dress shops for females? The guys got the right idea, they rent a Tuxedo, look sharp for the day, and give it back.
mayhem mayhem yes they got that right! I’ve only seen online shops like rent the runway. Nothing local to try it on. It’s still pretty pricey since they focus on high end brands which is not my focus at all. I’m not brand oriented. I’ll keep searching. I’d love to wear the dress tucked in tags and then return it afterwards but I know that’s an unethical solution.
I regret purchasing home decor too! It's just a waste of space. Also, I'm a mom and I use a diaper bag for my things 😂
I regret buying so many clothes jewellery shoes. So many things lol merry xmas kyra
Replica Items! Fraudulent! Love your no name apparel and no luxury items stance. Real, carefully selected jewelry...yes!
I regret purchasing Paparazzi jewelry, lularoe clothes, lots of starbucks, fast food. All useless stuff! 🤦♀️
I’ve been downsizing my makeup/ beauty products and it feels so good! I basically only use the same 4 items anyway. I put those items in my everyday cosmetic bag and everything else in other bags. Every so often I go through them to see what I have used. If I have not used it I get rid of it. My goal is for all the makeup items I use to fit into just one cosmetic bag. I’m almost there!
I LOVE reusable pads. So much more comfy, saves money:)
Yeah decor is a big thing with me, I have issues
lol I regret my colorful shoes. I rarely wore them, compared to my neutral shows
I love your videos Kyra 💕 I regret buying a lot of things, but mainly movies, CD’s, and purses/wallets, and so much clothing that I didn’t need and a lot of times only wore for one occasion.
I remember my mom spending minutes digging around in her purse looking for stuff, honestly that's just a hassle, I use a wallet.
I hate rings too. I have one ring my grandma gave me of a bear and it’s so small and doesn’t get in the way and I’m never taking it off haha
I experience lighter period with reusable pads too, I just thought it was due to my age or something 🙃
Same and I am 21 years old!!
Plus they are so comfy 😂🏃♀️
Last year I went HAM with the retail therapy and bought sooo many skincare items, only to be caught in a cycle of being able to figure out whats breaking me out!

I don't remember what I regret to buy, but everyday I have been learning how to buy better
omg finally! i really hate big brand with big logo on their products because i feel like i'm being too into showing what i can buy with my money like wanted to show off how rich i am lol at the end, that kind of products is ugly tbh. sometimes it just not go along well with what you want to wear.
for me, i regret purchasing eyeshadow palette. for now, i only have one! one palette is enough!! and i'm trying so hard to reduce my lipmatte. i can't find any product which is good for my lips including the color. i have a very dry chappy lips. once ive tried this fake lips product my friend own it, and it ruined my lips. i never try any fake lips product anymore. can anybody suggest me a goood lipmatte for dry skin? i do wear lipbalm but still i love lipmatte.
talking about clothes. i live in a dorm (uni student) and i only have white shirt for my daily wear (not including clothes for classes etc) and i only have like 6-7 white shirts short sleeves. i'm a muslim so i need to wear long sleeves to go out. and it's very convenience to have only white shirt for your house shirt or room shirt or whatever we call it. easy to clean if there is stain because its white. so i dont have to worry about the color is ruined when i try to clean the stain. and i am on my way to wear only plain basic color to go out but its not easy because i love wearing color outfits. tht's all from me :)
I regret purchasing this cabinet for DVD player etc. I was just just looking at it the day before I watched this video and said I don’t want this anymore. I use it for a book container but you can’t see the books. I just hate it and I’m getting rid of it. I also have a crystal cabinet I don’t want anymore, but I also need to get rid of the crystal. I feel you, I understand. Thank you for helping me see what I need to do. Jean from Arizona 🦎🌞🏜🌴🌵🦂🐍
I regret buying a tiny Christmas pillow filled with balsam fir... just this afternoon! I had to have this thing, even though I had decluttered my Christmas decorations and didn't want any more. So I brought it home and kept squeezing the pillow and REALLY inhaling the lovely aroma, trying to convince myself I was glad I bought it. A couple hours later, I started to sneeze and my throat and lungs got really itchy and I thought what the heck... OMG I think it's the pillow! So I grabbed it and ran down to the basement and left it there. Within the hour, I felt completely better. I suddenly remembered that I had been allergic to fir Christmas trees when I was little. Now I'm spending my time wondering what I'm going to do with it...lesson learned! :-)
I regret buying so many books, Oracle decks, makeup hauls, self development courses ( some of them ), food I don’t eat, things I don’t use !
I totally agree with you on the purses I see reason to have one
I regret purchasing CD's and DVD's, I barely listen to the CDs cause I'd rather use my phone, and I didn't even watch any of the movies ever.
Also decor, especially when I kinda fell in love with Lego and Funko and would buy so many figures I felt overwhelmed just by thinking how much time it'd take me to clean everything up.
I regret too many purchases to count but I am trying to change and I think that’s what matters at the end of the day
I regret purchasing clothes, bags, skincare that i just saw online.
But I am recovering/stop from purchasing it now. 🤗
❤️❤️❤️
I’m in the very very beginning stages of this wasteful lifestyle. Everything you say makes sense like “home” to me... I do find myself loving my home decor... I have tons of fashion fake jewelry that I REGRET purchasing.., it’s pretty but reality is, I’m not comfortable with them on & I don’t know what to do with it all now. I don’t want to throw away. And YES, I always wear my neutrals over everything else, I like comfort over fashion Any day, Every Day, All Day❗️
this is so interesting! u find a ton of stuff regretful that i definitely use in my house. but this gives me a different perspective and i love it. my only question is do u not find walls to be too plain without decor and where do u put the plants you do have if u don’t use tables? thanks!
Love your content, great work!
I regret purchasing Forever 21 clothes when I graduated high school and finally had a job where I can spend money on clothes. Their clothes are cheap and don't last long at all. I wasted so much money buying $10 shirts and jeans and I no longer own any of it. It was all wasted money. I'd rather pay a bit more now for quality.
I regret purchasing any clothing items that were cheaply made--what a waste of money. Now, I would spend a few hundred dollars on a well-made blazer that will last for years.
As far as a wardrobe, I do not like wearing neutrals. Jewel tones look best on me. Black and white clothing items are my base, and then I throw in red, blue, purple, etc. You look great in the colors that you choose. Ruby red is my neutral.
i was cleaning out am old purse to sell and i found 5 us dollars, 5 euros and 50 pesos and a bunch of change
Where is your cardigan from 😍
My wedding dress .
I regret stockpiling planner accessories that I never use.
Online marketed supplements. For some reason I bought it and end up not consuming it.
You are not the only one who regrets something you have bought. I have that too and the most regret is Android phones and my wedding dress
I wish they still made mid range phones like in 2007-2010ish, ha
I regret getting a planner, I can do all my plannings on my computer now I don't know what to do with it lol
My entire 20s I just wasted money. Clothes, mostly. Even lived in a musty apartment and had to throw everything out after (no amount of vinegar could help me). Had to build my wardrobe back up. Blah!!
I just did a whole house declutter, I filled my dodge journey to the brim with bags of donations. I donated anything that I didn't use or that didnt fit me. Jeans, kitchen utensils, dog toys, jewelry, If I didn't use it, it was gone. I regret thrifting/antiqueing and always buying somthing no matter if I really wanted that item or not. I wish I could have that money back!😫 At the the end of the day I learned a good lesson, though.
I relate to this so much! Especially #10 I had so many different patterns and colors that never went together and it was ridiculous! I haven’t been on RUclips for a while but I’m definitely turning notifications on for your videos because I forgot how much I loved them. Once I’ve spent $600 at Target on cheap clothes for me and my boyfriend and dog items. Silly me lol
Hi Kyra! Where did you get your bed comforter? I'm looking for a neutral like that.
I purchased mine from target in the college section. They have so many other neutral colors as well, and the price is very reasonable along with the quality 👍🏼 very warm.
I feel the same about colouring clothes! I regret buying them.
Love your videos! 💕

I regret buying lots of things but mainly makeup and decor!
I love Adidas I own one pair is all I need I'm also not a fan of alot of jewelry I only own one 14k gold chain and one pair 14k gold of stud earrings. And I also hate Logo clothing.
I'm with you on the diaper bag instead of a purse when kids enter the picture. Since I've had my son three years ago, that's all I carry when need be. I am not going to have a purse and a diaper bag. On the other hand, regarding DVDs, most of the shows I love (i.e. old sitcoms), I can't find on netflix or my android box etc., so I find myself having to buy the DVDs. I wish I could find them elsewhere, but I can't, so DVDs are my only option. And I watch those shows repeatedly!
I regret buying lots of makeup, stationery, colorful clothes, furniture that I don't need
I retreat purchasing pads now because I seriously had no idea that reusable pads exsist
My bank acct has a spending tab and I blew $15000 on mainly things I dont need. Ya I know, scary. I could have been so much RICHER rn if I didn’t practically medicate myself with shopping. This year is going to be different :)
I regret purchasing a ton of activity books when I was in elementary. Honestly I didn’t even use them and they were a waste of space in my dresser/drawer. And I kinda agree with you on the “colorful” clothing but for me, it’s notebooks, in my smiggle phase I purchased a ton of them with the colorful and complexed designed pages but i realized that I would rather go with neutural notebooks (especially the ones with lined pages).
I am binge watching your videos today. ♡
I regret purchasing junk food & high end Make up
Make up I hate wearing it, purses that I just gave away, and books. I love books but I am not using the library because I love turning the pages !
Totally agree with you🙌
I regret purchasing high end make up that wasn't even cruelty free or vegan
NOTE BOOK PAPER! I have way too much school loose leaf paper 🤦🏽♀️
