With so many people flipping thrifted items as a side hustle, unless your taste is so unique or esoteric or whatever, it's likely someone else will buy it.

@amara560 3 года назад

Same here! I'm planning to make a quilt from them. So hopefully I can re-use and still enjoy them that way.

@kslaney4161 3 года назад

That black dress/gown looks gorgeous on you! I applaud you for wanting to get rid of anything that you won't be wearing in the next few months. BUT! That being said, as someone who works retail, I have seen too many folks panic at trying to find a formal and flattering black dress under a time crunch. Having that in your closet will mean you're always ready for surprise formal events that come up on your calendar quickly and then you won't need to go out and buy one that might not feel as empowering.

@AJisreading 3 года назад

"If I can't bend and snap in it, it's not staying" is actually a standard that would work perfectly for me, so thank you for that!

@samiansley5740 3 года назад

Maybe one of the biggest adult lessons of my 30’s has been understanding and accepting that liking a thing (clothes, art, etc), does not mean it’s my style or fits my lifestyle. RIP clubbing dresses, LBD, excessively high heels (so we see a theme?)

@theoffkeydiva 3 года назад

For that blue dress with the missing button, you can move the top button down and either leave it without a top button or add a statement button at the top. It would probably be easier than changing the neckline

@nitzeart 3 года назад

She could also just change all 3 buttons. I don't think it will be that hard to find a style she likes.

How you feel about second-hand clothes is how I feel about plants for sale outside supermarkets (dunno if that's a thing over there, though.) Like, I know I have twelve other ferns, but if I see a sickly one outside a store that I know will just be tossed out at the end of the day like garbage, then I'm about to have thirteen ferns.

@speedyspeedgirl1778 3 года назад

Please, why did you have to remind me of my fabric collection 😲 And then sitting in front of a fabric that you had for 10 years, not able to give it away because surely the perfect pattern or idea will soon cross your mind. Even though this clearly did not happen in the past. 🙇

@anickamarie7145 3 года назад

Keeping some of your most loved pieces by your side while clearing out and putting them on periodically to remind yourself what an actually loved piece feels like is something I have discovered some time ago, and it WORKS LIKE MAGIC. I often get caught up and can't distiguish what isn't my style anymore when clearing out some beloved pieces from the past, and this is always so helpful!

It makes watching these videos a joy (and most likely ups the viewer retention which the algorithm overlords should love! :D) Also! When she does outfit changes in videos (e.g. The Women's Prize Longlist video) that fit the theme of what she's talking about it bring me so much joy.

With the black spotty top that has a tight bottom: If you have the time you could unpick/ cut off the bottom and attach elastic the bottom instead! There are plenty of tutorials online with different ways to add elastic to skirts which will work for the bottom of a top. I'm currently going through loads of my old clothes and reworking them so I have cool new items!
