When Lucy said, ‘let’s use more neutral language around this’ when Alex discussed her body - I was taken aback. What a beautifully phrased sentence to use with friends who may not be so kind to their own bodies. This is true queen energy ❤️❤️
Lucy is truly such a good friend and supporter. I love how you two can constructively banter and how she’s able to navigate those internal negative feelings into something helpful and so kind
This girl has obviously ripped thousands of people off charity donations. First fundraiser her new nose appears, wardrobe and house, second fundraising new boobs. I don't know why I'm the only one asking if she actually donated any of it. She wouldn't be making much off RU-vid. Also saying she has this many mental health issues and then being stable enough to elect majoy cosmetic surgery is a mockery
Alex im DYING at you two going back and forth saying "take it" "no you need to try it" "no take it" and dumpling is just on lucys head the whole time ITS HYSTERICAL
Hey Alex. I know you've said you've been struggling a lot, and I hope you're okay. It's nice to have our friends uppirt us in tasks that can seem to big to even attempt, and I always feel like a closet clean out is both a very nice trip down memory lane and a good marker for personal change and growth, as well as a way to feel like a fresh starts. Lots of of love from Austria! Also, yay for the call back to the super soft blue coat. It still doesn't have buttons 🙃
Getting rid of the hyper fixation coats is such a good step! Since you started talking about them with your NPCs, I finally understand what a hyper fixation IS and it helps me recognize when I’m having one and I’m able to fight them just a wee bit better. ❤
Alex, here's a tip on zips that come apart when zipped. Zip it to the bottom and on the right hand side of the zipper, take a pair of plyers and gently give the area where the zipper teeth goes in a little squeeze and try to zip it again. Do a little at a time until the zip stays. Works great as long as no teeth are missing and saves the cost of a repair.
Thank you for this. My main issue is that most the manufacturers that sell where I am use plasticy zips. They are rubbish. And don’t last. I can put zippers in normal clothes. I need to learn how to do it for coats. That’s what always breaks. I did learn that if there is a popper at the bottom to always do it up as that takes the strain. Must look for large poppers for the coats without them.
I love seeing Lucy poke the bear with suggesting things for Alex to get rid of. Although we want to be gentle with ourselves the issues we struggle with, we need someone to keep us accountable and not enable behavior that isn’t beneficial. Lucy is Alex’s accountant lmao. I’m going full par-asocial here and I want to be her friend 🕊🏠🕊🏠 we love a sponsored video!!
I’m so proud of you for posting this video 💙 I know how you feel about it after binging your second channel for days and days now! You’ve helped me so much! In fact I wouldn’t start this video until I’d tidied up and ran some errands first! You’re such a positive impact even when you feel like you’re struggling. This world is so lucky to have such a wonderful human being exist on it ❤And yay for the Lucy’s and Dumplings too 🎉❤ Stay strong, you CAN and WILL get through this season in life ❤
Lucy is truly an amazing friend:) it’s so sweet too see growth in a new direction of style but i can personally relate when it comes to getting rid of clothes i used to like but still attached to for sentimental reasons
I caught covid and I can't stand up straight for longer than like 2 minutes, let alone walk for longer than that, but I still have the immense urge to clean my room and get my closet ready for the colder seasons. I will live vicariously through this video to satisfy my needs. I managed to water my plants today c:
I love a good closet clearout. Love how you did this. Didn't feel a need to go through all the clothes (overwhelming) and the idea of trying on clothes is so important.
She Did Her Sponcership! 🎉 Good job Alex😁 (Lucy, we in the know know that without you this would not have been posted and hello fresh would still be on the shelf. Thank you)
I hope you can do a stuff going to the tailor video. It would be really interesting. Lots of love Alex and Lucy. Thank you for taking us on this journey with you. You are helping us more than you know.
Is this the video that Alex talked about on the side quest channel? I have been waiting for it! I always love watching these kinds of videos, and Alex knowlegde on clothing is really informative and fun to listen to
What to do when you don't have a Lucy: Pick a date you will remember, for example, 1 January. Take all of your hanging garments and put the hanger on the rod backwards. As you wear things throughout the year, wash and hang them, hang them right way. Then next 1 January, look at your closet. Anything still backwards you have not worn in 365 days, and can go buh bye.
Lol right? The comment about has she tried the items on with the new baboobas had me giggle. I had to buy a whole new wardrobe when I got mine and will need to do the same when I get them out!
Yay the Hello Fresh sponsorship is here! I know a while ago on the side channel you mentioned needing a video for it. I used HF a lot when the panini first hit and it was a fabulous service. It was also so convenient not having to lug groceries to the top floor of my tiny old apartment building. Anyone out there considering it should def give it a try!
I had completely forgot when you came up with the idea in the vlogs from the Side Quest channel, but when I saw this in my notifs, I got really excited! It's truly a fun idea! And having friends who know you enough to help you get through that declutter feels like it's making the process (at least a little) easier and it's definitely more fun too. Now, part of me wwants to do that too, but the other part is resisting too hard for me to take any steps towards that end pfff
The white hello kitty top with the shredded sequins on the arm. How about you have it framed with that part of the sleeve tucked under the top and the good arm seen. Or have the damage flipped facing backwards. Framing it 1. Hides the damage. 2. Puts it behind glass so Archie can't damage it further. Then you can hang it in your office as a framed decor piece.
omg i need to clean and organize my closet so bad, i just moved into my new apartment and am about to make a video series about it too 😂 that’s really the only thing inspiring me to finally do it lol
this video is really helping me with cleaning my own wardrobe. I've been struggling with weight fluctuations and changes in body and taste and just recovering from financial struggles, so cleaning has become really overwhelming. Thank you for showing me I'm not alone.
@prettylittlepastel I do miss sooooo much your clothing hauls I use to buy great choice of clothes based on your recommendation as you are my size please please continue to do them again and I missed you ❤️❤️❤️
"New boobs"? In the Side Quest channel, Alex did call her chest extension pack so it made sense that there was modification done. But, never saw a video journey on breast implants. Will there be or does Alex prefer not to talk about it? The nose correction surgery could have been traumatizing so I understand if Alex didn't want to journal other surgeries.
Yayyy i love closet cleanout videos so much!! I need a Lucy in my life as i have wayyy too many clothes that dont fit and i need help and reassurance haha
I both love that I recognize so many prices from previous videos as I full on grew up watching this channel (even remember seeing the now removed really old ones) and seeing the change in likes and style with the removal of those pieces from your wardrobe. It's like leaving behind eras, it's cool. Also very much same Alex felt on so many levels both here and side quest just all of the "trying to be okay but I'm not but I'm trying" vibes very happy you have friends who love and care and can be there
This was such a lovely video! I’ve been putting off clearing out my wardrobe for a while… makes me want to clear it out now! 👗 Also that pastel tiered Black milk dress is one I’ve dreamed of 💖
So weird hearing you mention the things in multiple colours situation, because I had these boots I really liked and I got them in all the colours they sold at the time and now I'm like "BUT WHY" and when I think about it my need for multiple boot colours ended about the time i started my Daily Serotonin Beans XD
Been looking forward to this video because I know it's going to be so easy going and fun for you two. Happy to see you make content that allows you to take a break from everything else. Much love from the US ❤❤❤
I recently did a closet clean out and I specifically culled my «party dresses» many of them did not fit anymore and over the years my party days have been greatly reduced and the type of dress I would wear to a party now is quite different 😅 So yeah, many had awesome memories attached to them but I hope they will be worn to many more parties where other people can make wonderful memories in them ☺️ And yes, I did actually had a playlist playing with FOB on it 😂 Thanks for the memories!
I've been culling my wardrobe occasionally as I'm updating my closet to suit my preferred style. I usually buy a few pieces, and then get rid of a few pieces that don't work or suit my style.
I am 65 and I swear I am you from YEARS AGO..way over here in Colorado 💞 Red hair.. freckles.. nose issues.. bullied..and completely undiagnosed A.D.H.D...although I was diagnosed with OCD..
I don’t know how you do it!! So many amazing pieces. so many things so little time. If anything just open your own consignment shop at this point! I’d definitely come an check it out! 💖✨
I just had to do this recently. I lost 100lbs this year and my friend convinced me to throw out all the clothes that don't fit me anymore. Everything that was too big it was time to get rid of.
