EXTREME MINIMALIST | GETTING RID of Clothes | WARDROBE [ENTIRE CLOSET] 

A few side notes before the video description: Slight error towards the end, where the wardrobe list/ notes page appears, it should be numbered to 24. However, After 24, the numbers are out of sync. Automatic Typo. Furthermore at the end when I am discussing the £20 swap out mirror 🪞 I forgot to mention the reason we are downgrading in quality but not size, is we may decide to sublet our apartment for a while whilst traveling. So we still want it to look nice and light but not have the nagging worry of an expensive item being broken. VIDEO DESCRIPTION ⬇️ Lately, I have been on a mega extreme minimalist home decluttering journey. This has also transcended into me revisiting my extreme minimalist wardrobe and closet. I am also a mindful minimalist. It just also happens that I have very few possessions. The minimalism that I practice is not about the number of items. Rather the pragmatic reasoning of having less to travel with, pack, carry and take care of. I do not want to simply get rid of stuff to own less. I want to do so but keep my home orderly, stylish & aesthetic. Also keeping my personal style intentional, smart & practical. I will discuss why I am decluttering certain clothing items and what I am keeping. This is also a minimalist wardrobe and closet tour. It is a 24 item wardrobe. That is not a capsule. Further to these 24 clothing items, I have 3 outer jackets, 3 bags and soon to be 3 pairs of footwear. There are always still practical specifications to consider when decluttering. Such as functionality and lifestyle. What may or may not be useful to us may be useful to someone else and vice versa. I have also discovered that climate, is proving to be very impactive on the type of possessions we keep versus get rid of in extreme minimalism. Everyone’s lifestyle is different. Therefore may warrant a need for very different possessions. You can subscribe to my youtube channel for FREE below ⬇️or: MY RU-vid SUBSCRIBE LINK ru-vid.comh

whilst i was watching this, my toddler got hold of a bottle of ice tea and poured it over in the kitchen. this. is the only reason we have as much clothing as we do. i cannot wait until hes out of this spill/drop/throw stage. 🤣😫

This is what I call minimalism. A huge inspiration. Thank you for sharing your ideas and for letting us see your home. ❤ Ulla-Marie

I’ve gotten down to: 2 pairs of work gear 3 leggings 1 shorts 4 t shirts 1 dress 2 pj sets 1 winter coat 1 hoodie 1 going out jacket 1 work shoes 1 running shoes 1 everyday shoes It’s so much easier to handle, the only downside is I do have to do more washing (so it seems) but I can get everything in one wash load which saves more time in the long run

Your home looks so calm and inviting❤

I really needed this! I was down to about 35 items a while back (also in the UK) and it's ballooned a bit, particularly when I went up a size and I have been holding on to smaller stuff. So you've inspired me to get it back down again and to get rid of a couple of pairs of shoes. Thanks! Love the tour at the end, really looking great (though plants are the one thing I don't minimise as they give me too much joy!)

If you are going to a warm climate, a linen/cotton dress will be great.

I live in a climate that gets quite cold and hot. I no longer have long sleeve shirts because I wear a zip up hoodie (no stigma where I live) of varying materials over it anyway. So three quarter sleeves and short sleeves now. Reduces my wardrobe a bit.

I just bought on ebay a 100% merino wool top that is thermal weave (and in grey my fave color) so that is a great addition to my layering. I live in a place where it does snow so layering is important.

Love all your videos! If you hung white sheers in your bay window you could have privacy in the day but still be able to see outside pretty much, just an idea. Love your bed turned sideways!

Thus isn't my style of living, but I have been having a major sort out, and its very refreshing. Each to their own. I do very much enjoy watching your channel. ❤❤

Thoroughly enjoyed this video! Love a clothes declutter😊makes me evaluate my own x

Everything looks great!! Im so happy the hammock is back!

If I had to carry every thing I own I would own very little. My granddaughter traveled to Italy by herself and took two big bags/suitcases. One opened in the street and she said she was so tempted to walk off and leave it all.

Love these longer vids!

I dont normally count my clothing but I recently made a video of my wardrobe and I currently have 5 dresses, 1 cardigan, 2 pairs of shoes and 3 coats for my day to day wear. Then 1 gym outfit, 2 kaftans for holidays and underwear and PJ's. I live in the UK too so have to be considerate with climate also. I don't mind adding or subtracting, I base it on if the amount annoys me or not 😂

Wow you inspire me so much! I love how your place looks!!!

Great video, have you ever seen the small folding tables that you can have to eat dinner on, but you can do multiple things with them, me and my son play games, side table, you could use it as a mini desk for a laptop, they are great, I normally fold mine down when not in use. Think mine was £12 from argos, if you get on without it then thats great, but if not those tables are great without taking up much space

Great video

haha, I know that charity shop. I'm in that area, the week after next. I'll keep my eye out for you lol. this was an enjoyable video, thank you.

Great video, as always :) I'm curious what brand your linen scarves are? I'd love to add one of these to my wardrobe.

I appreciate your through explanation of how you utilize the remaining items in your wardrobe. I often want to go further decluttering but I always wonder how to deal with issues that arise from not owning certain things. For example- I often get rid of fancy/special occasion clothes right before I am invited to a fancy event and then I regret getting rid of those items.

Could you tell me where these amazing big scarfes are from? They look amazing! Love Eli🌼

Such a freeing life cleanse! Loving your capsule wardrobe update ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤….. ditto on wanting to know where you purchased your linen scarves from! Xx

wow great video i would love to live like you but i live with others that love stuff lol !

Where did you get the green patterned scarf?

This is fascinating, how do you wear a pair of pants as pyjama as well as a regular pants though? What I mean is that when you wear it out, you cant wear it to bed anymore before the next wash? And then what to wear in bed instead?

Not everything needs to be explained or needs labels. But it’s good to give advice and perspective and psychological reasons why we hold on to things

How much do you own in the kitchen? I find I have too much but I don’t know where to start with getting rid of things

Connie Riet is an extreme minimalist. I think you'll find her RU-vid interesting.

Don´t you ever use gloves in the north of the UK?

I really enjoyed your thought process/analysis of this declutter. I have to say, with your colouring, I would probably have made different decisions, but obviously that is not for me to determine! Whether you like a fabric or not is clearly going to influence whether to keep it, I can't stand some fabrics. The stigma on hoodies on women in the UK is ridiculous to me, surely that would depend on "how" the hoodie is worn and what kind of hoodie it is! Maybe you'd like to keep in mind that you're going travelling and that stigma does not exist elsewhere, at least not in Europe and probably not anywhere non-English-speaking. Thinking of the pink hoodie which probably really suits you, goes with so many other items in your wardrobe (eg over a black or green outfit). Personally, I find that despite everything, there is an influence from the environment I'm in; I will reach for different things when I spend whole summers away than in the same temperatures/weather at home, so again, if I were you (I know, I'm not!) I would be hanging on to some of those other items you've enjoyed but are culling for numbers' sake (3 of everything) in view of how you might feel in a different place...

did you just say a hoodie is considered scruffy over there? oh that is so sad
