In this video I give you my tried and true tips for closet clean outs, style journaling, wishlist planning, and most importantly, shopping.

1. Writing a list of your most common occasions
2. Find some ideal outfits for each occasion
3. Write out items in those outfits and cross out the ones you already have
4. Items you don't have are your wishlist, the most frequent ones are your priorities
5. If you find something that's not on your priority list don't buy it
6. Know where you can find which item more easily, go to stores in more mindful order
7. Be patient !!
8. Don't buy things just to cross them off your list, whishlist is your guideline, not pressure
9. Don't rush, go with less people or alone, focus on YOUR style
10. When you don't know if you love it, isolate it from it's environment: will it look good with your wardrobe, would you buy it if it was in a different store, would you love it anywhere
11. Don't buy something if there's something else you want more
12. You don't have to cut down on time spent shopping, but just cut down on unnecessary purchases
Loved the video!!🩷
I agree so much on the last point. In still struggle a lot but, I saw a coat on Vinted for 80€ and I keep asking myself how many other things could buy with the 80€ that I love more. Also I started selling my clothing that I don’t wear. And for the first time ever I feel like I learned what a pain in the ass it is to sell clothing so when I buy something new now, I’m asking myself is it worth it when I don’t like the item anymore to sell it to someone else.
Omgggg so true I rarely sell anymore bc of how much of a hassle it is - which is deff a motivator not to buy as much
It's the casual days I don't have clothes for. I find I love shopping for the "going to work" outfits or "going to church" outfits which I absolutely do not need any more of. But here it is Saturday,again, we're just having a regular day, and I only have workout clothes. It is the hardest category for me to fill. Dressy clothes are easy. Comfortable but stylish (to me) casual clothes are so hard for me!
Okay, I’ve always scratched my head about the obsession around the *LUYBAG* book totes and their practicality, but this one is adorable!! Congratulations
wow this video was so helpful!! I've been trying to fill the gaps in my closet and never thought about the technique of making occasion uniforms and sorting out priorities of what clothes would best fill those gaps, excited to try this out
Ok I just made a new youtube playlist just to save this one video. The playlist is called "GOLD"❤
Because it's gold! Thank you so much this is super helpful!

what an amazing and practical video. you've summarized so elegantly everything that i have been thinking about for years of shopping. Even now I have not yet created the perfect wardrobe and, just like you said, struggle with "i have nothing to wear" syndrome a lot. Which is ridiculous cause i have so much clothes. thank you for gathering all the things that might help, i will be righting all of them down as well as what i really need to by before going shopping

I just watched this video three times because I need to retain this information. I swear every other video I have watched on the topics recommends buying either more basics or more classic style. Thanks for this 😊
This is so helpful, the ocation based wishlist and "if you saw this in your favorite store" is so valuable. I tend to shop thrifted pieces, just like you said, just because its the best piece in the thrift. Well, going to make a ocation based wish list now
yayyy it’s a very satisfying activity 👏🏽
Looking piece off-context tip is really helpful. Here in Finland i think brick and mortar shopping is kind of a sad and desperate thing. In our capital city there are few nice shops and also nice 2nd hand/trift stores, but malls... nowadays full of bad guality fast fashion stores filled with too much stuff (even fast fashion used to be better guality 10+ years ago and we had also some of these mid end clothing stores with nice stuff for younger people) OR these mid end stores with sad and ugly devil-may-care grandma stuff. When you find something decent that remotely reminds something you have thought buying at some point or you don't hate but don't truly love either or have really even thought you wanted before, it feels like a gem :D
This is so true, I’ve started to feel this exact same way about most brick and mortar shopping - especially malls. I used to love going to the mall with my mom when I was younger and now it just kinda makes me feel icky:/
This video could not have dropped on my lap at a better time 😅 I’m definitely doing the priority list! So helpful!
The priority wishlist is such a great idea! I recently bought some basics and they've really made getting ready so much easier.
Just subscribed! Fresh way of approaching shopping. Great content! Glad the algorithm helped me find your channel!😊
Great video, I do something similar. I started keeping a wishlist in my Notes app and it has helped me so much with impulse shopping and planning out purchases. It’s a basic spreadsheet with two columns, one for the item, one for the price. I’ll put everything there from a $20 mug to a $150 sweater to a $2000 furniture piece. And as time goes by I’ll cross things off, but I always have to scroll past that mattress and think “Remember you want a new bed. No more shoes” or whatever it is. It seems small, but really does help with prioritizing. And seeing everything I’ve bought in one place can also be a reality check lol
Lovely video. I've always had a list but I never considered making priorities of things. Can't wait to implement it
I had so much fun recently, making many collages for different categories of things on Pinterest. I’ve been curating my wardrobe for the last 3 years and it’s almost perfect. I have so many inspirations for outfits. Howeverrrrrrrr I have no where to go 😂😂😂. Well, I have very few places to go. When I started working on my wardrobe I was single living alone. Now I’m married with two babies and no time. I basically go to the grocery store and my mom’s house. 😂😂 oh man. When I had places to go I didn’t have the clothing options I have today and today I do but have no one to watch my kids so my husband and I could go on cute dates and stuff. 😅
These were really completely new approaches to questioning and changing your own shopping habits. Thank you so much for that!
The intro was so funnn
THANK YOU she’s new 🥰
This is THE best video on the topic. Love it!
I soooo needed this! I love shopping but my wallet doesn’t and this helped me think of shopping in another way. I had an all or none mindset before… like just stop shopping vs get it if you like it. Neither would lead me to feel good about something I love to do. I will be checking out more of your videos! Big Thanks from the fashionista in me & my wallet😅
Instant subscribe, I resonated so much - this is actually a video that I have also been wanting to make, but saving for later because I'm still in the data-gathering stage 😂
I feel like I will come back to this time and again 😊 tysm
I'm so happy this video got recommended and continuously watched all your videos while i was deep cleaning the house, very comforting and enjoyable like i'm hangingout with a close friend, i love your though processes. Can't wait to watch more of your videos 😚
