Your wardrobe looks really nice on you! It's funny because most of it is miles away from what i would pick out for myself, but on you it all makes perfect sense and looks so coherent and peaceful! Nice how you're showing people how good it looks when someone embraces their own looks, taste and values!
I had a real problem with clothes shopping and holding on to whatever clothing I had even if I didn't wear it! To the tune of four or five closets full! I've decluttered 12 bags of clothing so far and I'm down to two closets. Need to go through again and declutter more! Your videos are helping!
Vera, your wardrobe is lovely and well thought out. I’m impressed with the fact that you have cared for each piece, allowing for years of use. That’s commendable, esp. in this world of “fast fashion”. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much Ann! What you said really resonates with me. I think it's so important to care for our pieces to allow for years and years of use. Even the ones I bought from fast fashion companies years ago are still in good enough condition to wear. So I think it really matters how we care for our items. :)
I share your point on wearing clothes for years. I do it too. I even have a sweater that my mom wore before I was born (I am in my late 20s) and it still looks better than some new items in stores. I have never bought something because it was fashionable at the time but because I liked it and my wardrobe consists mainly of things I have had for 7-8 even 10 years.
I thought I had paired down my clothing but now you really have me thinking about more items taking up realestate in my closet that can find a happier home. Post COVID shutdown more of my coworkers have commented on how comfort is key now in getting dressed and I agree. I need to re-evaluate also the "fantasy me" lurking in my wardrobe and will feel so much better to have more breathing room in my closet when it's all said and done.
Love your wardrobe. It suits you. My fav is your pink sweater and green winter jacket. I have been decluttering my wardrobe for 3+ years. I am down to 58 items from 120. Everything is comfortable, my colors and appropriate for my figure. I have learned so much from RUclipsrs like yourself regarding proportions, quality, fit, longevity and personal style. Occasionally an item doesn’t work out, I immediately donate to charity even if I only wore it one time. This is the most satisfied I have ever been with my wardrobe. Thank you for sharing your life.
The white Lacey blouse was my favorite, a true classic. I can see why you don’t reach for the black denim jacket. It seems a bit harsh for your personality. The mint green one, you are unsure of. I don’t know why. You choose that color on your couch pillow, your flower pot, your background on your website screens, I think you like that color. I think you should wear it in a video and see what you think after you replay the video. I have a lot less clothes than I used to. I have downsized to two areas, office work, and weekend. This has helped me to keep them in separate places, this way, I don’t accidentally wear inappropriate clothing. That sounds funny, but it’s true. Thank you Vera ! I have been enjoying your content for over five years now. 🌞
I think a black or navy pencil skirt in a comfortable and not too clingy fabric that hits about mid knee would look great on you. It would pair nicely with your tops and sweaters. Your sneakers would look cute with it too!
Hi Vera, I‘m re-watching all of your wardrobe (decluttering) videos for the probably 20th time again cause I just love them so much😅 They just help me stay motivated and on track with my minimalist-ish wardrobe, are very entertaining but also relaxing and I just like your taste in clothing. So I was wondering if you could film an update video of your current wardrobe either a tour of it or a decluttering one? I love hearing you talk about why you like an item or not cause it helps me with making my own decisions when it comes to clothing and style😊 Greetings from Germany🫶
I've been wanting to minimize my wardrobe for months now. Yours is the first video I've seen on the topic that make it seem doable for me. Thank you for your great content!
I liked the green on you. Green can be hard to wear for those of us with fair skin and blonde hair,but you picked the perfect shade of green. I love your pink sweater best I think. I finally gave up on inexpensive tee shirts that lose their shape after a few washes and added 5 nice black tops as my basic look. My body shape has changed, so rather than living in pajama bottoms, I invested in two pair of jeans that actually fit. Thank you for being the catalyst I needed to have clothes that fit NOW rather than waiting for the elusive day that my 69 year old body will look like it did when I was 30! It feels very freeing. Have a wonderful weekend, Vera.😇
Oh I love that, you're amazing Karen!!! So happy that's working out for you :) Life is too short to have things we can't wear now :) You have a wonderful rest of your weekend as well!
Enjoyed this video! Thanks for the inspiration. Since your wardrobe is small, you know each of the pieces very well and you make sure they all get used. It was only in the last two years that I learned how much of a burden our clothes can be. The time spent shopping, the expense, choosing all the styles for the various aspects of our lives, the care, the space consumed, delivery, packaging...I love the mint green on you. Adds just enough pop of color, and that's nice to see once in a while.
My favourite is the “love all beings” t shirt, wish I could find one like that. I managed to get down to mainly clothes that I actually like wearing so I’m making progress :)
I really appreciate your video on your wardrobe. I wear scrubs to work during the week, but in my off time I wear jeans 90% of the time with either a sweater or sweatshirt or t-shirt. I loved your long grey sweater as I needed an idea of what to wear over a top with jeans, and that's a great idea! Occasionally I would like to dress up a bit and have 1 pair of black slacks that I can wear a tank top with, and 2 dresses. I also have a black pair of jeans to dress up a notch from bluejeans! I have 5 pair of shoes, and that's about it. I haven't formally minimalized - I just never liked buying clothes!
I honestly love the white top!! It might be a "trend" piece, but I find the puffy sleeve shape to be so flattering and feminine and found I added several tops to my own wardrobe with them since I know I won't be able to find them anymore, soon. Honestly, I have always found your wardrobe so lovely--it matches your soft and calm personality, looks so put together, and inspires me to keep things limited to things I love. Helps we have similar taste! ;)
That mint green shirt looks fabulous on you! 😍 mint & lavender are two pops of Color I have in my wardrobe. I can surprisingly wear so many different ways! Also I’m the most comfortable in my ankle length skirts! I love wearing them to church on Sunday’s!
Thanks Ronnie-Lynn!! I LOVE lavendar on others, but on me, I'm still not sure. I think soft pastels kind of wash me out. Perhaps the mint sweater works on me, because the color is quite saturated. Anyway, have a great weekend! 🤗💖
Your point about not having formal things made me think of a coral pink strappy maxi dress I bought on holiday... it's so impractical and there's so much fabric that it takes up too much space in a suitcase. It's in the maybe pile!
I really enjoyed that video! You look beautiful in all your clothing :-) I love that despite the fact that you have a minimalist wardrobe your tops are all very unique and different!
You look terrific in the new green sweater. It compliments your hair and skin tone beautifully. My most versatile skirt is a denim one with a little lycra/spandex in it for stretch and comfort. The fewer items i have in my wardrobe the better. When mine was much larger, I got overwhelmed and felt like I had fewer options...strange as that may sound. I did a Marie Kondo declutter several years ago, keeping only items I loved and then all the outfits I put together, I loved. In thinking about it now, I might have to get back in there and go through it again because I think it's grown a little since then.
Thank you so much!! :) Yes, I totally get what you mean about feeling like you have fewer options when there is lots of stuff in your closet. Simple and minimal feels so much better!! :) Happy to hear the marie kondo method worked for you when it comes to decluttering clothing :)
Love the black long sleeve top on you with the jeans like that. You look good in navy. The oatmeal turtleneck sweater/sweatshirt seems like such cozy happy vibes. I also love the oatmeal sweater material tank top, the floral blouse, and the doc maartens
Hello Vera! My clóset is based on comfort and life style...so, instead of jeans , I prefer leggins for Winter and dresses for Summer. Greetings from Argentina 💙
Hello Vera! I have a big problem with my closet and my clothes. I struggle the last 2 years to minimize my clothing and started my journey in minimalism. As an hsp I'm trying to declutter also my home but the past 5 years I'm moving all the time and in different cities. Your videos are very helpful for me and give me strength to continue. Thank you so much!
I just recently discovered your channel and I love it! Your wardrobe is so beautiful, simple, and realistic. I love the way you are in touch with your lifestyle and your clothing needs. I also love to wear jeans, tops, and sneakers. I tried getting all of the "must haves" for a capsule wardrobe, and they never felt right. It's wonderful to be yourself!
I think you can feel good about the green top. It's a great tone and blends well with your skin. This was an interesting demo of your wardrobe, and alerted me to a new shoe brand. Thank you.
I enjoyed your wardrobe tour! My wardrobe is filled with prints and vibrant color. Most of my jeans are colored as well, although I do have regular jeans too. I also have colorful shoes to match the jeans. I would say that I really love putting together an outfit that matches along with fun colorful jewelry is my aesthetic. I’m sure there are items I could declutter but the quality is better than what I’ve purchased in the last few years. So I hang on to them and wear them occasionally. It was fun seeing what’s in your wardrobe! Thanks for sharing, Vera. ☺️🙌
On the subject of hoodies/warm jumpers it would be worth having a spare one to hand this winter, given that our heating bills will be increasing dramatically. I was going to declutter an old hoodie but have decided to hang onto it for the winter now in case it’s really needed.
Yes, great suggestion! I actually have quite a few things that are very warm. And I layer up as well :) So for example, I'll wear yoga pants underneath really warm pajama pants, and then a tank top, underneath a long-sleeved shirt, underneath a warm sweater. Then socks and warm slippers, and if I'm still cold, I'll curl up underneath a warm blanket. And only then, if I'm still cold, I'll turn up the heater a bit haha
Like you Vera, I go for comfort and don't currently own formal clothes as lead a casual lifestyle. I love all your clothes and especially your shoes which look so comfortable. I'm happy with my wardrobe as have condensed it to a manageable amount and make sure I wear everything.
I have created a uniform for myself to make getting dressed easier. Black pants, a solid top and a black or gray cardigan. It’s simple and comfortable for all the tasks I do as a stay at home mom.
Thank you for sharing your wardrobe with us. I only have essentials that is enough for a week. I worked out my lifestyle and how many times I do washing. I have dresses for hot months, but jeans the rest of the time 💗
I can relate to the all soft pink purses and bags looool. Been there. It's just a cute color, pretty neutral yet edgy and really goes with everything. Is soft pink the new beige? Maybe.
Thanks for sharing! Last time I checked, I was at about 65 items for all 4 seasons (which is a thing in Pennsylvania) 🙂 not counting undergarments. I have found that having less to choose from makes it much less stressful when getting ready for the day. I also have a lot of black in my wardrobe. Everything goes together now 🙂
On your jackets. I love the casual 16:51 green boxy one and I like the nice teal/green winter coat that is warm and water proof. I would probably add a wool coat to your wardrobe. I LOVE my wool coat cuz you can dress up or down and the style is always in. I’ve learned the best length wool coat is longer then a pea coat but not as long as to the knees. Mid thigh works! Cuz whether your wearing pants, dress or skirt the length works for all three! And it’s not too much or too short.
Hi Vera! I really liked the green top on you. And, I am a sucker for a white T-shirt, Jeans, and red shoes. It’s just a classic look to me, so that was my favorite! Have a great weekend! ❤️
Hi Vera! Love your entire wardrobe. My favourites are your pink sweater, your dress and your white blouse with flowers on. Great shoe collection as well.👌 Pretty happy with my own wardrobe although I'm still going to declutter a few items that I no longer love and wear. I used to have a way bigger wardrobe but feel like I have more to wear now. I do need a few basic items but I'm in no rush and will only buy when I really love something. Thank you for the video and have a great weekend ! ♥️
Love what you shared!!! I too feel like I have more options now, even though I have way fewer items :) Love what you said about not being in a rush and only buying something if you really love it!
Hi Vera, dank voor je mooie content! Vind je video's altijd fijn, ontspannend en inspirerend. In je video gaf je aan soms wat zoekend te zijn: staat dit mij en/of past dit bij mijn figuur? Ik heb een tijdje terug zo'n workshop gedaan waarin ze kijken naar wat voor figuur je hebt en welke kleuren staan je goed. Dit heeft mij onwijs geholpen in het maken van duurzame kledingkeuzes. Ik doe nu bijna nooit meer een miskoop, shop gerichter, draag echt veel wat ik koop en kan beter kleding kopen waar ik ook lang blij mee ben, omdat het past bij mijn figuur en teint. Een investering van tijd/geld die het dubbel en dwars waard is geweest voor mij. Wie weet is zoiets voor jou ook helpend! :) Nogmaals dank voor je fijne content!
New subscriber/fellow vegan/aspiring minimalist- love this video! Just what I needed before starting my 29th year teaching elementary Art ❤️🙏🏼🎨 getting organized is my biggest challeng with all the art supplies never mind my own clothes closet- your tips are incredibly helpful
Funny you mention the blue and pink sweater gets you most compliments! That's because you are a summer color type and these 2 shades (light 'cool' blue and light 'cool' pink) are 2 of your best colors 🥰😍
Thanks so much Julia!! Some other people also told me in the comments about me being a light summer type. So helpful to know! I'll definitely use that info going forward. Have a great week!
I think my biggest problem is that I'm not particularly attached to clothing, but if I truly only kept what I loved or what I was attached to, I would have a pretty useless closet for my lifestyle. I'm forced to keep half of my closet for practicality reasons. Like you, I have clothes that are a decade old that I wear regularly, and if I wanted to, could keep wearing for another handful of years. Another problem I have is getting rid of older clothing that is showing its age (stretched/wrinkled/discolored collars, very faded, etc) but is still wearable because other people are unlikely to notice the wear and tear that I notice.
I can relate :) With the older pieces that are showing their age, perhaps just keep it simple and ask yourself if you still enjoy wearing them. If the answer is no, and you also don't need them because you have enough other options, then it could be time to let them go :)
I got rid of black from my wardrobe and tend to go for navy or charcoal instead. I wear jeans and tshirts through winter ( it doesn’t get too cold here in Australia where I live) and I wear dresses through summer. Comfort is my top necessity, if it’s not comfortable, out it goes.
I can totally relate to not being able to find bottoms because we share the same body type! It's so frustrating whenever I have to replace a piece, so I take reeeally good care of everything I own.
My favorite has to be the flat shoes…. I have so much trouble finding comfortable shoes and those looked so pretty!!! Also, the pink shirt …. Perfect color for you !! Yes, I like the mint green … you look pretty in the color
Thank you so much Teri!! :) Just figured out (from someone's comment) I'm a light summer type in the color analysis model, and it totally makes sense. That type also had lots of lighter pinks, mints and oatmeal colors.
I had a hard time getting rid of some clothing items because ‘in case of..’. Even with the good decluttering tips from this channel. Then came the war. Just 3 countries from where I live. When I knew that trucks were leaving for Ukraine with everything needed, I didn't hesitate. I was sure that people could use the items and that they ended up well (acquaintances went along). Now I am very satisfied with my wardrobe and I have a different view on the whole 'fashion/getting dressed' concept. Good look Vera with finding a nice winter coat!
In the last year I’ve really tried to only buy clothes that fit well and get rid of ones that don’t. I feel you about purchasing skirts. We have a similar body type and it can be challenging to find what flatters!
I'm like you, I keep the clothes I enjoy wearing and feel good on my skin! The green sweater you are iffy about is a beautiful colour and should look great on you! Thanks for the tour!
This really put into perspective how excessive my current wardrobe is 😬 Thank you so much for your videos - they are so helpful as a recovering shopping addict. I would recommend Everlane if you are looking for a more formal coat! Just bought The Cotton Modern Trench Coat myself for this past season and highly recommend. It is sustainable and I'm 90% sure vegan as well, plus very easy to dress up or down (also on sale at the moment!). Also I love the turquoise color on you that you are unsure about, it looks really stunning with your skin tone and eyes! In general all of your pieces are timeless and such good colors on you... I'm guessing light summer seasonal palette? :)
My wardrobe used to be cluttered. Yet in the last five years I have declutter many of my clothes. There are still some little things that I am a little skeptical on donating or not. I try to be very careful and mindful on my shopping. Little by little I have created the habit of NOT buying things that I don’t really need. I have to say that your videos have helped me a lot on this subject.
I am by no means an expert, but if you really want to find yourself a skirt that looks good on you, I would suggest looking into A-line skirts. Specifically one with a high waist since you like that in your jeans, I would guess you like that in skirts too. It will give you a waist, but then flare out around your hips and bottom and "hide" those in a flowy way. I personally really like A-line skirts because they don't restrict as much as for example a pencil-skirt would (even though, I really like those too!).
Ah great suggestion, thanks Daniela!! I've tried on a few a-line skirts, but I don't think they were the right ones because the waist was pretty low. So I felt like they made me 'even' bigger on the bottom half. But if the waist is higher, then they'll put more emphasis on my waist, and I think that would work way better. Thanks!
I have started to curate my wardrobe this year after beeing ill for several years and loosing lots of weight. I despratly needed a new wardrob as my old cloths were way too big. I found lots of old pieces in the addic and bought some new pieces to fill the blanks. I love it and havn’t felt as good in many years. I do keep one smaller box for each season stored away. And have plenty more pieces then you. But for each season it looks about like your wardrobe. I like the green sweater on you. Your pale colour looks nice with the light green. And last but sureley not least. Do buy a nice winter coat. I am also on the look for a winter coat. I hope you show when you find places to buy. I think that is the hardest! To find good stores!
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts Eva! I'm sorry to hear about your health problems in the past, but happy to hear you're feeling good now! Someone recommended checking out sustainable and vegan winter coats from Noize, and so far I like what I see! So perhaps that could also work out for you. :)
Thank you Vera for letting us peek in your closet. You have lovely taste and your clothes are all stunning on you. I have decluttered to what is a great minimum for me. I have between 50- 100 for all 4 seasons here in the Northeast of the USA, depending on whether you count undergarments, socks, and sleepwear. I tend to wear leggings and soft tunics and cardigans. I do have lots of socks because I got them in bulk, which was silly. Like you, when I find something that is well made and I love, I keep it. So eventually my closet will shrink even more. It’s lovely and peaceful to look at all that open closet space and know I have plenty to wear for years to come! Blessings and grateful thanks Vera 🥰💖
It made me chuckle when you mentioned that you get lots of compliments about your blue sweater because I've always loved the colour of that sweater too 😊. As for my wardrobe I pretty much have a 'uniform' which I stick to pretty much every day which consists of a long sleeve top over which I wear a plain t-shirt (think a less colourful/patterned and ethical version of what Sheldon Cooper from Big Bang Theory wears lol 😂 ) paired with either jeans, chino trousers or shorts. When it gets too hot for that outfit (yuk) I will wear a simple shirt. I also have a hoodie for when it's chilly - now if I could find a new one in the same colour as your blue sweater I'd be a very happy bunny - and a winter jacket. I do need a proper rain coat (I think the UK can't be that different from the Netherlands in that respect 🌧☔). And talking of jackets I think your casual off-green jacket looks really great. .
Hahaha thank you so much!! Ah when you mentioned the long sleeve over the plain t-shirt, I immediately pictures Sheldon Cooper but in a less colourful/patterned way hahaha. I actually really like that look as well. And yes, you get just as much rain as we do I think!! :) I'm so looking forward to the fall
Hey Vera, I loved this video, thank you for sharing your wardrobe with us! 💚 I loved the floral blouse and the white feminine lace top in your closet. Even if it's a little bit trendy, romantic light coloured blouses come into fashion every spring, so I think it can be considered timeless. I loved your cute oat coloured knit top as well. And those blush bags are to die for 😍 It's hard to say only by seeing you on screen, but I think that you're a Light summer in the Seasonal colour analysis world, and that's why you get a lot of compliments when you wear those pinks and blues. I also think those shades look stunning and really harmonious on you. You can absolutely wear all the colours that you enjoy, I just think it's good to know these informations even if we don't follow it 🌸 How about secondhand fancy wintercoats? They are usually easy to find, I thrifted mines and I get a lot of compliments on them.
Ah that's so cool, thanks for sharing the info about the seasonal colour analysis. I did some googling and I totally recognize myself in that. It'll make it so much easier to find new pieces that work on me :) Thanks!!
@@SimpleHappyZen I'm so happy that you find it helpful 💚 You can wear whatever colour you want of course but these colours will naturally harmonize with you, while with other colours you may need more make up to look good (for example a black top can look edgy with black eyeliner). And if the colour isn't close to your face it really don't matter as much. I like to nerd out on style that's why I know this but if it's not your interest this is the long story short version :D Have a great day 🌸
Hahaha happy you liked it!! :) Actually, that was from H&M... Bought it around 8 years ago. So yeah, not something I would buy again now :) But since I have it, I'll keep wearing it
Me too!! :) Too tiresome to keep up with trends that fade haha :) I think a simple, timeless look always makes you look put together. Hope you're having a nice weekend!
Hi Vera, great video! I have a pale skin tone and I always find richer colours tend to compliment me better than pastels, I think the red would look great on you and the jumper that is like a rust colour. 😁
Yes exactly, that's my experience too! :) People keep telling me to match my pale skin tone with pastels, but I find they tend to wash me out completely. Richer colors are also just more fun haha. Thanks Adele!
Thank you so much Tania!! I'm a sweater person too haha. I actually talked about it in the video, but I cut that part out since it was getting too long. But yes, I don't really enjoy shopping that much for clothing, except for sweaters. So I'm always trying to make sure I don't go overboard with them hahaha
Hi from Ca! I’m fairly new to your calming channel and adoring the vibe. As a cozy Virgo, I strongly appreciate your closet selections. Your style is beautifully balanced and comfy. All of the pieces are no fuss and look made for your body. You asked if the green top works…I feel it’s not the right shade. I’m a Summer and you appear to be one too. That shade I’ve tried numerous times and it just never seems right. I say pass. Your green jacket however has a pleasant tone that totally works for you! With that said, your green jacket is one of my favs (especially for versatility), but it also ties with every single flutter sleeve top, with the flowered one being first ;)
Thank you so much for your knd words!!! And welcome to the channel :) I appreciate your thoughts on colors! Someone mentioned in the comments that I'm probably a 'light summer' type in the seasonal color analysis, and after googling it, I think she was definitely right. The colors for light summer seem to be a little different than for 'regular' summer. So I'll use that going forward :)
Thank you for sharing Vera I love your style especially tge boxy tops they are gorgeous and smart casual but also dressy I love your purse and backpack I think they should suite most of your clothes because they are not bright they are pastle you did an awsome job modelling the clothes you look gorgeous in every one of them I don't have anything dressy because I don't miss dressy I love my wardrobe and I have just enough 💜
I have more than enough clothes, I pretty much wear them all through the seasons and feel like I could still use more. More dresses for the summer, more sweaters for the winter. I go through my clothes every six months and purge what I don’t wear, like or worn out.
Very happy 4 shortsleeve black t-shirts+ 2 colourfull, 3 long-sleeved t-shirts +2 coloured, 4 jeans 4 summer cotton/ linnen trousers 2 stretch jackets (to dress up) 1 black dress and sorry 4 very old outdoor woolen sweaters in very different thickness that also are my winter coat 1 pair of shoes 1 pair of sandals 1 pair of heals Underwear for a week, yoga pants, socks😀 Most stay many years, if something is done I replace it, no sooner.🤗 So easy😅
I don’t have but one dress and 2 or 3 black skirts since I don’t go to church anymore. But I make due with them. Some day I might get a couple of dresses to keep on had. I don’t really have alot of clothes because my weight fluctuates. I’m happy with my wardrobe.
TY Vera for sharing your wardrobe with us. I find your wardrobe so easy to mix & match pieces and that's what I'm working on! I can definately get distracted by buying too many patterns and that makes it difficult to match and make different combos which makes you buy more items. I am doing much better but you gave me some good ideas! My favorite item is your brown cable knit sweater and the pink fits your complexion perfectly I think. I do think the green/aqua color is fine on you but I like some of the others better on you. 🏵
Thank you so much Joan!! Yes, one of the things I like about my wardrobe is that everything mixes and matches really easily. But I also really like patterns, I think they could be nice for keeping things more interesting in the long run haha :)
I have way too many clothes and I always struggle with what to wear and complain that I don’t have anything! Basically I think I might buy things and then realize they aren’t as flattering and then I wish I didn’t spend the money, but don’t want to get rid of it, because of the money. It’s a viscous circle.
Thank you for inspiring to have less clothes! 🤗I like that all your clothes items match each other and they look really nice on you. I am wondering, where did you buy this cute raincoat? I looked in HEMA in NL, but they don't have raincoats with warm lining like yours.

Hi everyone! What was your favorite item from the video?🤗👇
I love your black blue blouse and trousers. I have a similar pair of trousers, it is as comfortable as jeans, but has a stylish spark too.
Your green jacket!!!!!
Lots of contenders but I vote the white blouse with the floral print or the lace looking one
I also loved the shoes! 😍
You look lovely in the green sweater and the red, all of them! 🇨🇦
You are so thoughtful and intentional. The world could use more like you.
Your wardrobe looks really nice on you! It's funny because most of it is miles away from what i would pick out for myself, but on you it all makes perfect sense and looks so coherent and peaceful! Nice how you're showing people how good it looks when someone embraces their own looks, taste and values!
I had a real problem with clothes shopping and holding on to whatever clothing I had even if I didn't wear it! To the tune of four or five closets full! I've decluttered 12 bags of clothing so far and I'm down to two closets. Need to go through again and declutter more! Your videos are helping!
You've made so much progress, that's awesome!! Good luck with the rest of your decluttering goals 🤗🌼🌺
Vera, your wardrobe is lovely and well thought out. I’m impressed with the fact that you have cared for each piece, allowing for years of use.
That’s commendable, esp. in this world of “fast fashion”. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much Ann! What you said really resonates with me. I think it's so important to care for our pieces to allow for years and years of use. Even the ones I bought from fast fashion companies years ago are still in good enough condition to wear. So I think it really matters how we care for our items. :)
I share your point on wearing clothes for years. I do it too. I even have a sweater that my mom wore before I was born (I am in my late 20s) and it still looks better than some new items in stores. I have never bought something because it was fashionable at the time but because I liked it and my wardrobe consists mainly of things I have had for 7-8 even 10 years.
That's so awesome!! Wow, that sweater must be super high quality!!
I love the pink sweater💗 & the white lace "trendy" blouse!!!🤍
Yes, you look pretty in the light green top!🥰
This is the first video of yours that I watched, but I just wanted to say how much I admire your style. It’s very classy, trendy, and fresh.
Blue is a beautiful color on you. It really enhances your fair skin and brings out your blue eyes!
Aw thakn you!! :) I had an idea to look for more blue from now on. :) Have an awesome weekend!
I thought I had paired down my clothing but now you really have me thinking about more items taking up realestate in my closet that can find a happier home. Post COVID shutdown more of my coworkers have commented on how comfort is key now in getting dressed and I agree. I need to re-evaluate also the "fantasy me" lurking in my wardrobe and will feel so much better to have more breathing room in my closet when it's all said and done.
Love your wardrobe. It suits you. My fav is your pink sweater and green winter jacket.
I have been decluttering my wardrobe for 3+ years.
I am down to 58 items from 120. Everything is comfortable, my colors and appropriate for my figure.
I have learned so much from RUclipsrs like yourself regarding proportions, quality, fit, longevity and personal style. Occasionally an item doesn’t work out, I immediately donate to charity even if I only wore it one time.
This is the most satisfied I have ever been with my wardrobe.
Thank you for sharing your life.
All your clothes are so beautiful, cozy, and versatile for styling. I enjoyed watching, very inspiring. 👍😍
Yay, thank you so much!! :) So happy to hear you enjoyed the video
The white Lacey blouse was my favorite, a true classic.
I can see why you don’t reach for the black denim jacket. It seems a bit harsh for your personality.
The mint green one, you are unsure of. I don’t know why. You choose that color on your couch pillow, your flower pot, your background on your website screens, I think you like that color. I think you should wear it in a video and see what you think after you replay the video.
I have a lot less clothes than I used to. I have downsized to two areas, office work, and weekend. This has helped me to keep them in separate places, this way, I don’t accidentally wear inappropriate clothing. That sounds funny, but it’s true.
Thank you Vera ! I have been enjoying your content for over five years now. 🌞
I think a black or navy pencil skirt in a comfortable and not too clingy fabric that hits about mid knee would look great on you. It would pair nicely with your tops and sweaters. Your sneakers would look cute with it too!
Thanks for the tip Linda! I'm going to try and find something like that :)
Hi Vera, I‘m re-watching all of your wardrobe (decluttering) videos for the probably 20th time again cause I just love them so much😅 They just help me stay motivated and on track with my minimalist-ish wardrobe, are very entertaining but also relaxing and I just like your taste in clothing. So I was wondering if you could film an update video of your current wardrobe either a tour of it or a decluttering one? I love hearing you talk about why you like an item or not cause it helps me with making my own decisions when it comes to clothing and style😊 Greetings from Germany🫶
I've been wanting to minimize my wardrobe for months now. Yours is the first video I've seen on the topic that make it seem doable for me. Thank you for your great content!
Yay, happy you enjoyed the video! It's totally doable :) Good luck!
I liked the green on you. Green can be hard to wear for those of us with fair skin and blonde hair,but you picked the perfect shade of green. I love your pink sweater best I think. I finally gave up on inexpensive tee shirts that lose their shape after a few washes and added 5 nice black tops as my basic look. My body shape has changed, so rather than living in pajama bottoms, I invested in two pair of jeans that actually fit. Thank you for being the catalyst I needed to have clothes that fit NOW rather than waiting for the elusive day that my 69 year old body will look like it did when I was 30! It feels very freeing. Have a wonderful weekend, Vera.😇
Oh I love that, you're amazing Karen!!! So happy that's working out for you :) Life is too short to have things we can't wear now :) You have a wonderful rest of your weekend as well!
I agree. I’m 62 and it’s so hard to find clothes that fit and match my age. It’s either young or real old with no in between.
Enjoyed this video! Thanks for the inspiration. Since your wardrobe is small, you know each of the pieces very well and you make sure they all get used. It was only in the last two years that I learned how much of a burden our clothes can be. The time spent shopping, the expense, choosing all the styles for the various aspects of our lives, the care, the space consumed, delivery, packaging...I love the mint green on you. Adds just enough pop of color, and that's nice to see once in a while.
Oh you're so right about the burden our clothes can be!! I couldn't agree more :D
I feel that way , too !
My favourite is the “love all beings” t shirt, wish I could find one like that. I managed to get down to mainly clothes that I actually like wearing so I’m making progress :)
I really appreciate your video on your wardrobe. I wear scrubs to work during the week, but in my off time I wear jeans 90% of the time with either a sweater or sweatshirt or t-shirt. I loved your long grey sweater as I needed an idea of what to wear over a top with jeans, and that's a great idea! Occasionally I would like to dress up a bit and have 1 pair of black slacks that I can wear a tank top with, and 2 dresses. I also have a black pair of jeans to dress up a notch from bluejeans! I have 5 pair of shoes, and that's about it. I haven't formally minimalized - I just never liked buying clothes!
I honestly love the white top!! It might be a "trend" piece, but I find the puffy sleeve shape to be so flattering and feminine and found I added several tops to my own wardrobe with them since I know I won't be able to find them anymore, soon. Honestly, I have always found your wardrobe so lovely--it matches your soft and calm personality, looks so put together, and inspires me to keep things limited to things I love. Helps we have similar taste! ;)
Ah that's so sweet of you to say, thank you so much Liesl!!! 🤗💕✨ Enjoy the rest of your weekend!!
That mint green shirt looks fabulous on you! 😍 mint & lavender are two pops of Color I have in my wardrobe. I can surprisingly wear so many different ways! Also I’m the most comfortable in my ankle length skirts! I love wearing them to church on Sunday’s!
Thanks Ronnie-Lynn!! I LOVE lavendar on others, but on me, I'm still not sure. I think soft pastels kind of wash me out. Perhaps the mint sweater works on me, because the color is quite saturated. Anyway, have a great weekend! 🤗💖
I remembered something!
😊 less is more!
love your shoes and you look so great in your clothes.
Your point about not having formal things made me think of a coral pink strappy maxi dress I bought on holiday... it's so impractical and there's so much fabric that it takes up too much space in a suitcase. It's in the maybe pile!
I really enjoyed that video! You look beautiful in all your clothing :-)
I love that despite the fact that you have a minimalist wardrobe your tops are all very unique and different!
Aw thank you so much Amber!! Yes, no need to have a boring or limiting wardrobe if you want to go minimalist :) Hahaha
the mint green color looks great with your complexion. My fav is the floral blouse
Thank you so much Ann!! :) Love that one too :) Have an awesome rest of your weekend!
I love the floral one too
Do make a video on how do you fit all essential things in backpack.
Thanks, Vera, for your encouraging content. 😊♥️
@@heatherframpton9693 Thank you for being a part of this community and for all the good vibes!!! 🤗❤️🌱
You look terrific in the new green sweater. It compliments your hair and skin tone beautifully. My most versatile skirt is a denim one with a little lycra/spandex in it for stretch and comfort. The fewer items i have in my wardrobe the better. When mine was much larger, I got overwhelmed and felt like I had fewer options...strange as that may sound. I did a Marie Kondo declutter several years ago, keeping only items I loved and then all the outfits I put together, I loved. In thinking about it now, I might have to get back in there and go through it again because I think it's grown a little since then.
Thank you so much!! :) Yes, I totally get what you mean about feeling like you have fewer options when there is lots of stuff in your closet. Simple and minimal feels so much better!! :) Happy to hear the marie kondo method worked for you when it comes to decluttering clothing :)
Love the black long sleeve top on you with the jeans like that. You look good in navy. The oatmeal turtleneck sweater/sweatshirt seems like such cozy happy vibes. I also love the oatmeal sweater material tank top, the floral blouse, and the doc maartens
Aw thank you Abigail!! Some of my favorites too 😄
Hello Vera! My clóset is based on comfort and life style...so, instead of jeans , I prefer leggins for Winter and dresses for Summer. Greetings from Argentina 💙
Hello Vera!
I have a big problem with my closet and my clothes. I struggle the last 2 years to minimize my clothing and started my journey in minimalism. As an hsp I'm trying to declutter also my home but the past 5 years I'm moving all the time and in different cities. Your videos are very helpful for me and give me strength to continue. Thank you so much!
I love a good cardigan. I have a few, myself. Also, machine washable shoes?! That is so cool!
Yay for cardigans!! :) And yes, I know!! So cool!!
I just recently discovered your channel and I love it! Your wardrobe is so beautiful, simple, and realistic. I love the way you are in touch with your lifestyle and your clothing needs.
I also love to wear jeans, tops, and sneakers. I tried getting all of the "must haves" for a capsule wardrobe, and they never felt right. It's wonderful to be yourself!
I think you can feel good about the green top. It's a great tone and blends well with your skin. This was an interesting demo of your wardrobe, and alerted me to a new shoe brand. Thank you.
Thank you so much, happy to hear it!!! :) Have a great rest of your weekend
Your videos inspire me and calm me when I'm feeling overwhelmed by my belongings. My journey to minimalism is a tough, slow one but I'm persistent. 😃
Thanks Karisa, you can do it! :)
I enjoy all the items! However, I love the shoes! I’m all about recycling!
Thanks so much Jenn, me too! Really happy with the shoes 😊😍
I enjoyed your wardrobe tour!
My wardrobe is filled with prints and vibrant color. Most of my jeans are colored as well, although I do have regular jeans too. I also have colorful shoes to match the jeans.
I would say that I really love putting together an outfit that matches along with fun colorful jewelry is my aesthetic.
I’m sure there are items I could declutter but the quality is better than what I’ve purchased in the last few years. So I hang on to them and wear them occasionally.
It was fun seeing what’s in your wardrobe! Thanks for sharing, Vera. ☺️🙌
Happy you enjoyed the video Dawn! Your wardrobe sounds very fun and colorful :)
On the subject of hoodies/warm jumpers it would be worth having a spare one to hand this winter, given that our heating bills will be increasing dramatically. I was going to declutter an old hoodie but have decided to hang onto it for the winter now in case it’s really needed.
Yes, great suggestion! I actually have quite a few things that are very warm. And I layer up as well :) So for example, I'll wear yoga pants underneath really warm pajama pants, and then a tank top, underneath a long-sleeved shirt, underneath a warm sweater. Then socks and warm slippers, and if I'm still cold, I'll curl up underneath a warm blanket. And only then, if I'm still cold, I'll turn up the heater a bit haha
Like you Vera, I go for comfort and don't currently own formal clothes as lead a casual lifestyle. I love all your clothes and especially your shoes which look so comfortable. I'm happy with my wardrobe as have condensed it to a manageable amount and make sure I wear everything.
Thank you so much!!! And happy to hear you're also happy with your wardrobe :)
I have created a uniform for myself to make getting dressed easier. Black pants, a solid top and a black or gray cardigan. It’s simple and comfortable for all the tasks I do as a stay at home mom.
I love love you're wardrobe. All the pieces are beautiful on you
Aw thank you so much!! :)
Thank you for sharing your wardrobe with us. I only have essentials that is enough for a week. I worked out my lifestyle and how many times I do washing. I have dresses for hot months, but jeans the rest of the time 💗
Sounds very simple and practical! :)
I can relate to the all soft pink purses and bags looool. Been there. It's just a cute color, pretty neutral yet edgy and really goes with everything. Is soft pink the new beige? Maybe.
I think the mint top looks good but with darker denim worn in the spring or summer.
Thanks for sharing! Last time I checked, I was at about 65 items for all 4 seasons (which is a thing in Pennsylvania) 🙂 not counting undergarments. I have found that having less to choose from makes it much less stressful when getting ready for the day. I also have a lot of black in my wardrobe. Everything goes together now 🙂
Sounds great!! :) I share that experience haha, much easier to get dressed with less going on
On your jackets. I love the casual 16:51 green boxy one and I like the nice teal/green winter coat that is warm and water proof. I would probably add a wool coat to your wardrobe. I LOVE my wool coat cuz you can dress up or down and the style is always in. I’ve learned the best length wool coat is longer then a pea coat but not as long as to the knees. Mid thigh works! Cuz whether your wearing pants, dress or skirt the length works for all three! And it’s not too much or too short.
PS: I have a black one, and a cream one. I wear the black one the most.
Hi Vera! I really liked the green top on you. And, I am a sucker for a white T-shirt, Jeans, and red shoes. It’s just a classic look to me, so that was my favorite! Have a great weekend! ❤️
Aw thanks!! Happy you enjoyed the video! :) Have a great weekend
Faith and Flour washes her shoes like that pretty cool.
Hi Vera! Love your entire wardrobe. My favourites are your pink sweater, your dress and your white blouse with flowers on. Great shoe collection as well.👌 Pretty happy with my own wardrobe although I'm still going to declutter a few items that I no longer love and wear. I used to have a way bigger wardrobe but feel like I have more to wear now. I do need a few basic items but I'm in no rush and will only buy when I really love something. Thank you for the video and have a great weekend ! ♥️
Love what you shared!!! I too feel like I have more options now, even though I have way fewer items :) Love what you said about not being in a rush and only buying something if you really love it!
Hi Vera I love you whole wardrobe. Love pink but I also think you look beautiful in the green.❤
Yay, thank you so much Cathy! Have a great rest of your weekend! 🤗🌱
Hi Vera, dank voor je mooie content! Vind je video's altijd fijn, ontspannend en inspirerend. In je video gaf je aan soms wat zoekend te zijn: staat dit mij en/of past dit bij mijn figuur? Ik heb een tijdje terug zo'n workshop gedaan waarin ze kijken naar wat voor figuur je hebt en welke kleuren staan je goed. Dit heeft mij onwijs geholpen in het maken van duurzame kledingkeuzes. Ik doe nu bijna nooit meer een miskoop, shop gerichter, draag echt veel wat ik koop en kan beter kleding kopen waar ik ook lang blij mee ben, omdat het past bij mijn figuur en teint. Een investering van tijd/geld die het dubbel en dwars waard is geweest voor mij. Wie weet is zoiets voor jou ook helpend! :) Nogmaals dank voor je fijne content!
New subscriber/fellow vegan/aspiring minimalist- love this video! Just what I needed before starting my 29th year teaching elementary Art ❤️🙏🏼🎨 getting organized is my biggest challeng with all the art supplies never mind my own clothes closet- your tips are incredibly helpful
Thank you so much Shannon, and welcome to the channel!!! That's awesome! :)
Thank you for sharing your wardrobe with us. It's highly important to use what you have until it's worn out.
Funny you mention the blue and pink sweater gets you most compliments! That's because you are a summer color type and these 2 shades (light 'cool' blue and light 'cool' pink) are 2 of your best colors 🥰😍
Thanks so much Julia!! Some other people also told me in the comments about me being a light summer type. So helpful to know! I'll definitely use that info going forward. Have a great week!
I think my biggest problem is that I'm not particularly attached to clothing, but if I truly only kept what I loved or what I was attached to, I would have a pretty useless closet for my lifestyle. I'm forced to keep half of my closet for practicality reasons. Like you, I have clothes that are a decade old that I wear regularly, and if I wanted to, could keep wearing for another handful of years. Another problem I have is getting rid of older clothing that is showing its age (stretched/wrinkled/discolored collars, very faded, etc) but is still wearable because other people are unlikely to notice the wear and tear that I notice.
I can relate :) With the older pieces that are showing their age, perhaps just keep it simple and ask yourself if you still enjoy wearing them. If the answer is no, and you also don't need them because you have enough other options, then it could be time to let them go :)
I got rid of black from my wardrobe and tend to go for navy or charcoal instead. I wear jeans and tshirts through winter ( it doesn’t get too cold here in Australia where I live) and I wear dresses through summer. Comfort is my top necessity, if it’s not comfortable, out it goes.
I totally agree! Comfort is everything :) Also, I see what you mean about switching out black for navy or charcoal
I can totally relate to not being able to find bottoms because we share the same body type! It's so frustrating whenever I have to replace a piece, so I take reeeally good care of everything I own.
Yes, I find it can definitely be frustrating at times :) Yay for taking care of what we already own! :)
Hi Vera! Your sweaters are beautiful! The color of green sweater looks pretty on you! Keep it!!❤️🤗
Thank you so much Lucy!! :) Have a wonderful weekend
My favorite has to be the flat shoes…. I have so much trouble finding comfortable shoes and those looked so pretty!!! Also, the pink shirt …. Perfect color for you !! Yes, I like the mint green … you look pretty in the color
Thanks so much Susan! Yes, I'm really happy with those flats 🥰❤
I love the softer shades on you such as the pinks, mint and oatmeal.
Thank you so much Teri!! :) Just figured out (from someone's comment) I'm a light summer type in the color analysis model, and it totally makes sense. That type also had lots of lighter pinks, mints and oatmeal colors.
I had a hard time getting rid of some clothing items because ‘in case of..’. Even with the good decluttering tips from this channel. Then came the war. Just 3 countries from where I live. When I knew that trucks were leaving for Ukraine with everything needed, I didn't hesitate. I was sure that people could use the items and that they ended up well (acquaintances went along). Now I am very satisfied with my wardrobe and I have a different view on the whole 'fashion/getting dressed' concept. Good look Vera with finding a nice winter coat!
The green top looks good on you. It would really pop if you pair it with the dark blue dress slacks that are in your wardrobe.
Oh that's a good idea!! I'll try that out :)
In the last year I’ve really tried to only buy clothes that fit well and get rid of ones that don’t. I feel you about purchasing skirts. We have a similar body type and it can be challenging to find what flatters!
I'm like you, I keep the clothes I enjoy wearing and feel good on my skin! The green sweater you are iffy about is a beautiful colour and should look great on you! Thanks for the tour!
Aw thank you so much!! 🤗🌱🌷
The sneakers are gorgeous, they suit you so well!
Aw thanks Lea!! :) I love them too!
This really put into perspective how excessive my current wardrobe is 😬 Thank you so much for your videos - they are so helpful as a recovering shopping addict. I would recommend Everlane if you are looking for a more formal coat! Just bought The Cotton Modern Trench Coat myself for this past season and highly recommend. It is sustainable and I'm 90% sure vegan as well, plus very easy to dress up or down (also on sale at the moment!). Also I love the turquoise color on you that you are unsure about, it looks really stunning with your skin tone and eyes! In general all of your pieces are timeless and such good colors on you... I'm guessing light summer seasonal palette? :)
Thank you so much Erika, glad you enjoyed the video! 🤗🐝❤️ Also yes, I'm a light summer 😄
I love the oatmeal knitted summer top. Looks great on you
Thanks Myriam!!! It's one of my faves, so comfy :)
My wardrobe used to be cluttered. Yet in the last five years I have declutter many of my clothes. There are still some little things that I am a little skeptical on donating or not. I try to be very careful and mindful on my shopping. Little by little I have created the habit of NOT buying things that I don’t really need. I have to say that your videos have helped me a lot on this subject.
So happy to hear that, that's awesome!!! :)
love all your wardrove! All looks good to you!
Thank you so much! 🤗🌷
I am by no means an expert, but if you really want to find yourself a skirt that looks good on you, I would suggest looking into A-line skirts. Specifically one with a high waist since you like that in your jeans, I would guess you like that in skirts too. It will give you a waist, but then flare out around your hips and bottom and "hide" those in a flowy way. I personally really like A-line skirts because they don't restrict as much as for example a pencil-skirt would (even though, I really like those too!).
Ah great suggestion, thanks Daniela!! I've tried on a few a-line skirts, but I don't think they were the right ones because the waist was pretty low. So I felt like they made me 'even' bigger on the bottom half. But if the waist is higher, then they'll put more emphasis on my waist, and I think that would work way better. Thanks!
Love your sweaters ❤️
I have started to curate my wardrobe this year after beeing ill for several years and loosing lots of weight. I despratly needed a new wardrob as my old cloths were way too big. I found lots of old pieces in the addic and bought some new pieces to fill the blanks. I love it and havn’t felt as good in many years. I do keep one smaller box for each season stored away. And have plenty more pieces then you. But for each season it looks about like your wardrobe. I like the green sweater on you. Your pale colour looks nice with the light green. And last but sureley not least. Do buy a nice winter coat. I am also on the look for a winter coat. I hope you show when you find places to buy. I think that is the hardest! To find good stores!
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts Eva! I'm sorry to hear about your health problems in the past, but happy to hear you're feeling good now! Someone recommended checking out sustainable and vegan winter coats from Noize, and so far I like what I see! So perhaps that could also work out for you. :)
@@SimpleHappyZen Thank You so much for answer! I will check that out! 👍❤️
I looked at Noize and I think they are great! Thank You so much for letning me know!! 🥰
@@evalindell2757 🤗💕
Great video, may I ask what brand is your oversized sweater (shown around 10:46 min) please, thank you in advance
Thanks!! That sweater was from Cos... So definitely not something I would buy again now. But it's already very old :)
Yes the mint green sweater looks great with your coloring.☺️
Thank you so much Jeni!! :) Have a great rest of your weekend
Thank you Vera for letting us peek in your closet. You have lovely taste and your clothes are all stunning on you. I have decluttered to what is a great minimum for me. I have between 50- 100 for all 4 seasons here in the Northeast of the USA, depending on whether you count undergarments, socks, and sleepwear. I tend to wear leggings and soft tunics and cardigans. I do have lots of socks because I got them in bulk, which was silly. Like you, when I find something that is well made and I love, I keep it. So eventually my closet will shrink even more. It’s lovely and peaceful to look at all that open closet space and know I have plenty to wear for years to come! Blessings and grateful thanks Vera 🥰💖
Love the green on you! You can wear it with confidence
I have too many clothes. I can definitely down size my wardrobe
It made me chuckle when you mentioned that you get lots of compliments about your blue sweater because I've always loved the colour of that sweater too 😊. As for my wardrobe I pretty much have a 'uniform' which I stick to pretty much every day which consists of a long sleeve top over which I wear a plain t-shirt (think a less colourful/patterned and ethical version of what Sheldon Cooper from Big Bang Theory wears lol 😂 ) paired with either jeans, chino trousers or shorts. When it gets too hot for that outfit (yuk) I will wear a simple shirt. I also have a hoodie for when it's chilly - now if I could find a new one in the same colour as your blue sweater I'd be a very happy bunny - and a winter jacket. I do need a proper rain coat (I think the UK can't be that different from the Netherlands in that respect 🌧☔). And talking of jackets I think your casual off-green jacket looks really great.
.
Hahaha thank you so much!! Ah when you mentioned the long sleeve over the plain t-shirt, I immediately pictures Sheldon Cooper but in a less colourful/patterned way hahaha. I actually really like that look as well. And yes, you get just as much rain as we do I think!! :) I'm so looking forward to the fall
Hey Vera,
I loved this video, thank you for sharing your wardrobe with us! 💚
I loved the floral blouse and the white feminine lace top in your closet. Even if it's a little bit trendy, romantic light coloured blouses come into fashion every spring, so I think it can be considered timeless. I loved your cute oat coloured knit top as well. And those blush bags are to die for 😍
It's hard to say only by seeing you on screen, but I think that you're a Light summer in the Seasonal colour analysis world, and that's why you get a lot of compliments when you wear those pinks and blues. I also think those shades look stunning and really harmonious on you. You can absolutely wear all the colours that you enjoy, I just think it's good to know these informations even if we don't follow it 🌸
How about secondhand fancy wintercoats? They are usually easy to find, I thrifted mines and I get a lot of compliments on them.
Ah that's so cool, thanks for sharing the info about the seasonal colour analysis. I did some googling and I totally recognize myself in that. It'll make it so much easier to find new pieces that work on me :) Thanks!!
@@SimpleHappyZen I'm so happy that you find it helpful 💚
You can wear whatever colour you want of course but these colours will naturally harmonize with you, while with other colours you may need more make up to look good (for example a black top can look edgy with black eyeliner). And if the colour isn't close to your face it really don't matter as much.
I like to nerd out on style that's why I know this but if it's not your interest this is the long story short version :D
Have a great day 🌸
Watching your videos makes me want to water my plants and make a green tea matcha latte green 🍵🌿
That makes me so happy 🥰💕🥰💕
AHHH WHAT NAME BRAND IS TYHAT WHITE FLORA T SHIRT?! I LOVE THAT!!!!!!!
Hahaha happy you liked it!! :) Actually, that was from H&M... Bought it around 8 years ago. So yeah, not something I would buy again now :) But since I have it, I'll keep wearing it
You look beautiful in all of your clothes! Great job Vera. Hugs from Canada.
Aw thank you so much Sarada 🤗✨ Hugs back, have a great weekend!
I love a simple, timeless look. 💖
Me too!! :) Too tiresome to keep up with trends that fade haha :) I think a simple, timeless look always makes you look put together. Hope you're having a nice weekend!
I liked the mint green shirt on you, you have such beautiful fair colouring that those colours are just perfect on you! 💚
Aw thank you so much Carla!!! :) Have a great rest of your weekend!
I love all of your sweaters!!!
Thanks Karen!! Sweaters are my favorite thing to shop for hahaha. Always need to make sure I don't go overboard with them :)
Where did you get your gold crescent necklace from? It's gorgeous!
Thank you Jenn! It's from Ana Luisa jewelry 😄
Hi Vera, great video! I have a pale skin tone and I always find richer colours tend to compliment me better than pastels, I think the red would look great on you and the jumper that is like a rust colour. 😁
Yes exactly, that's my experience too! :) People keep telling me to match my pale skin tone with pastels, but I find they tend to wash me out completely. Richer colors are also just more fun haha. Thanks Adele!
Your sweaters look amazingly cozy! I’m a sweater person, so I may have too many… thanks for sharing your wardrobe
Thank you so much Tania!! I'm a sweater person too haha. I actually talked about it in the video, but I cut that part out since it was getting too long. But yes, I don't really enjoy shopping that much for clothing, except for sweaters. So I'm always trying to make sure I don't go overboard with them hahaha
Your hair looks gorgeous in that braid! And great video, as always 😇
Hi from Ca! I’m fairly new to your calming channel and adoring the vibe. As a cozy Virgo, I strongly appreciate your closet selections. Your style is beautifully balanced and comfy. All of the pieces are no fuss and look made for your body.
You asked if the green top works…I feel it’s not the right shade. I’m a Summer and you appear to be one too. That shade I’ve tried numerous times and it just never seems right. I say pass. Your green jacket however has a pleasant tone that totally works for you! With that said, your green jacket is one of my favs (especially for versatility), but it also ties with every single flutter sleeve top, with the flowered one being first ;)
Thank you so much for your knd words!!! And welcome to the channel :) I appreciate your thoughts on colors! Someone mentioned in the comments that I'm probably a 'light summer' type in the seasonal color analysis, and after googling it, I think she was definitely right. The colors for light summer seem to be a little different than for 'regular' summer. So I'll use that going forward :)
Hi Ruthie. I’m a Ruthie and a Virgo too 😀
@@ruthiemill Hey, I like your vibe 😉. Nice to meet you!
Thank you for sharing Vera I love your style especially tge boxy tops they are gorgeous and smart casual but also dressy I love your purse and backpack I think they should suite most of your clothes because they are not bright they are pastle you did an awsome job modelling the clothes you look gorgeous in every one of them I don't have anything dressy because I don't miss dressy I love my wardrobe and I have just enough 💜
Aw thank you so much for your kind words Deborah!! So happy you enjoyed the video :) Also happy to hear you love your wardrobe!!
I have more than enough clothes, I pretty much wear them all through the seasons and feel like I could still use more. More dresses for the summer, more sweaters for the winter. I go through my clothes every six months and purge what I don’t wear, like or worn out.
All of the bags are pink, lovely ❤️
Very happy
4 shortsleeve black t-shirts+ 2 colourfull,
3 long-sleeved t-shirts +2 coloured,
4 jeans
4 summer cotton/ linnen trousers
2 stretch jackets (to dress up)
1 black dress
and sorry 4 very old outdoor woolen sweaters in very different thickness that also are my winter coat
1 pair of shoes
1 pair of sandals
1 pair of heals
Underwear for a week, yoga pants, socks😀
Most stay many years, if something is done I replace it, no sooner.🤗 So easy😅
Sounds very minimal, functional and fun!! 😄👚
@@SimpleHappyZen I still think I have more than plenty😂😅 have good week!!
I don’t have but one dress and 2 or 3 black skirts since I don’t go to church anymore. But I make due with them. Some day I might get a couple of dresses to keep on had. I don’t really have alot of clothes because my weight fluctuates. I’m happy with my wardrobe.
Happy to hear you're happy with your wardrobe, I would say that's all that matters right? :) Have a great rest of your day
Hi Vera! All clothes are good on you, but i like the grey cardigan the most ♥️
Definitely also one of my favorites! :) Thanks so much, have a great weekend!
TY Vera for sharing your wardrobe with us. I find your wardrobe so easy to mix & match pieces and that's what I'm working on! I can definately get distracted by buying too many patterns and that makes it difficult to match and make different combos which makes you buy more items. I am doing much better but you gave me some good ideas! My favorite item is your brown cable knit sweater and the pink fits your complexion perfectly I think. I do think the green/aqua color is fine on you but I like some of the others better on you. 🏵
Thank you so much Joan!! Yes, one of the things I like about my wardrobe is that everything mixes and matches really easily. But I also really like patterns, I think they could be nice for keeping things more interesting in the long run haha :)
I have way too many clothes and I always struggle with what to wear and complain that I don’t have anything! Basically I think I might buy things and then realize they aren’t as flattering and then I wish I didn’t spend the money, but don’t want to get rid of it, because of the money. It’s a viscous circle.
I used to do that too :) A good-old shopping ban combined with rigorous decluttering can be just the thing :)
Thank you for inspiring to have less clothes! 🤗I like that all your clothes items match each other and they look really nice on you.
I am wondering, where did you buy this cute raincoat? I looked in HEMA in NL, but they don't have raincoats with warm lining like yours.
Hi Vera, you look great in the burnt orange colour 👍x
