I am in my young sixties I have never let the fashion industry decide what I wear I can think for myself my style and colours I am not here to please other people only myself. 👍😁
Yes, but also no. For my work in healthcare there are certain restrictions on what to wear (no croptop or short pants/skirts for example). Which led to my wardrobe being full of clothes that are more practical for work than actually clothes I feel sexy and strong in. Don't get me wrong, I love the clothes I have for work, but it expresses little of my character. Outside of work I am experiencing with clothing. I noticed about myself that I have a lot of colorful tops, sweaters and t-shirts, but for me it sometimes feels hard to make sets out of it or to style it (It looks like multiple drunken rainbows partying in my closet). So I slowly try out more clothes that have a natural/earthy kind of color. So I'm more experiencing with clothing that expresses my character more and in which I find myself sexy and strong in, but it also has to be comfortable (I get cold very quickly). For tips I would say learning to change your mindset about yourself and the love for your body and do so in little steps if big steps are to scary. For example. I always hated skirts because of my legs, I have these little red spots all over the place which makes me feel very insecure (I believe its called something like strawberryskin?). So during the hot days I am forcing my mind and myself to wear these, because I know these skirts are comfortable in the hot days. So I start with just wearing them in the backyard and if I feel good I can go a step further, like walking the dog in a skirt or doing a quick run to the groceriestore. Little steps. But the process of learning to experiment in clothing, to feel comfortable in these clothes and in what we wear starts within ourselves, because society is not going to do that for us. Ladies (and gents), you all look pretty in whatever you wear. It's the energy that you radiate when you wear something you like or feel comfortable in. And that is sexy and strong! (wow this got way longer than I intended it to be)
Since my body changed after having a baby it's hard to wear what I want anymore. It seems like they don't make clothes that flatter my new body the way they did before. So, I dress much more casually than I'd like.
At the end, I was expecting you to say something like "you can find all the clothes I don't want anymore on that app for sell !" because it's usually what happens in every "closet clean-out" that I watch... It was SO REFRESHING to hear you say that you would like to give the clothes to someone really needing them. That's why I freaking love you Sissel ! 💚
I'm also going through that phase, being able to experiment with fashion without limiting myself because of what others might think of me. Usually I stuck to experimenting withing the fashion normality but I'm starting to do things for me and I don't feel embarrassed wearing things out 🥰
Something that really helped me and everyone should remember is that cloths should fit YOU and YOUR BODY. Please don’t believe that your body has to fit a certain size (especially because they vary arbitrarily) or that one size is better or worse than another. Find cloths you feel comfortable and confident in and you will look gorgeous in it! ✨
I agree so much on not having just one style. Because since 2020 I've been loving vintage midcentury/cottagecore clothing and shoes that has heightened my standards of styling in some situations but I also have more casual clothing with Nike af1s and old skool vans. After getting the vintagey pieces I've been thinking to myself that the casual clothing I have is too "basic" because the more stylised midcentury clothing/shoes is kind of my standard now if I want to prep myself up. Then I started to miss wearing casual clothing and incorporated the casual clothing and sneakers back again. I feel like it's nice to also be a bit more laidback in my styling, sometimes even mixing the pieces of the styles.
What you said about body types is so important! It is true that if you're looking for simple rules those guidelines can really help, but it also depends so much on styling and the manufacturer! Plus simple but small details like the cut can make a huge difference. For example I'm quite wide at the hips so I used to think only fitted pants would suit me compared to wide legged pants (as I looked boxier), but it really depends on the brand's cut of the leg and waist, as well as styling it with more fitted tops to show figure. Don't be discouraged if you try something new on in a local store and think the style doesn't suit you! Look at that style in multiple brands before you write it off.
Hi ! I'm from Paris, and I completely agree with the imitation is okay thing. I grew up with the same culture of "SHE found it first so I have to let it to her" and i love that you hightlight the fact that our sisterhood is (should be) so much stronger that pieces of fabrics ! Women in all shapes and moods rock
I deeply agree and can relate to so much of what you said, thanks for speaking up! I'm very petite (only 157 cm) and I'm bored of people telling me that I can't wear certain things just because of my height - excuse me, WHAT? Of course I can and I will! There was also a lot of talking behind backs about someones outfit choices if they were dressing just a little different than the 'norm' at the school I went to and stuff. I grew up in a tiny village as well, again, a lot of talking but I didn't care. Whoever might need a sign: This is your sign to just wear whatever you want to wear, whatever makes you feel comfortable and cute! NO RULES, NO GENDER!
I really love this video. This is the second time I watch it, it's soothing. I agree with what you said, we should let ourselves explore more and get together as sisters
This is such a perfect timing for this video!! Last week i started changing my style completely and now i need to clean out my closet aswell, but i was too lazy to start… Thanks for motivating us and for making us feel more comfortable in our bodys!! 💕💕
I've been following and watching your videos for such a long time and it's so funny to think how people that we don't know personally can be going through the same things as you are and can help you "get out of your own head". Thank you so much for your last videos, it brought me back to the path that I've been going and gave me that little spark that was missing! Thank you so much for you help, you are amazing ✨
Your videos are such mood makers ! Now I am in urge to start cleaning my room and find my own style, I have been avoiding to find my own and feeling behind life lately.
Ugh not for the fact that I need clothes but i really wish one day I would be able to meet you. A little conversation with you would make me more and more accepting towards myself and others.. Keep Going Sissel, you are doing great!!! Sending love 💚💚
I'm currently studying fashion design and most of the time, I feel very comfortable with wearing what I want. I usually try to find a balance, if I'm wearing big baggy pants I pair it with a smaller, tighter fitting top, and try to match colours within the outfit. When I find this balance and coordination, it feels so satisfying and I find a greater joy in being out that day. This probably isn't the best thing, but getting compliments from my friends and even strangers at school really make me feel even more confident and comfortable. This really helps when I am wearing a piece for the first time 🤍 p.s. I've been finishing up lots of assignments this week and had all your videos playing in the background, after watching almost all of them I've moved on to your podcasts!! This is my first time actually fully listening to a podcast and I'm loving yours :) thank you and sending lots of love 🤍
I love your clothes. You definitely inspired me to try a certain kind of style I always wanted to try. Your whole aesthetic is wonderful and healing. I love the top at 3:00. If I could I would definitely want to go shopping with you since I find your taste immaculate!
After living in China and Korea for almost 3 years, my sense of style has really changed drastically. Although it was incredibly hard to shop for clothes as I am a much bigger size than most clothing being sold, I still had the chance to find new, trendy things I never would have been able to get living back home. It opened my eyes to different silhouettes, materials, prints, and gave me so much more joy opening my closet every day. As someone who's always struggled with body image issues, that joy was so new and invigorating! I've been able to pare down my wardrobe drastically since then, and I've never lost that joy when I go to pick out clothes. Another things I've found is how I organize my clothes in the closet and drawer really make a difference in mood. If I'm less excited about a shirt or dress, I put it in front of things I normally reach for, so I make an effort to see it frequently. That's tricked my brain to remembering why I bought it in the first place, by putting it in a place of importance, so I get excited to wear it. If it's been a while since doing that, and I still don't wear it, only then will I part with that clothing item. Seems so silly a little trick that helps :)
Hey, Sissel- word of advice- sunlight, both direct and indirect affects fabric color, causing it to change(fade) over time- your closet gets so much natural light, you may want to consider introducing some blinds(if not already there) to help preserve the condition of your favourite, long haul items
omg sissel, i’m so happy every time you post 😭🫶🏻! you’re my comfort person, i want to live in Seoul one day and your channel warms my dreamy heart (if that makes sense lol). you’re making me SO inspired, in one of your latest videos you said that you’re feeling “calm collected connected” and that inspire me for my portfolio 😫👍🏻💕 thank you for posting, love you✨🪐
Aaa you’re such an amazing human being Sissel. It’s literally shining happiness and love from you and every word you say. This truly inspired me! I’ve been wanting my own style for SUCH a long time and thought I had to “stick” to only one, but I’m not doing that. I’m going to make a folder on Instagram now and then play around in my wardrobe 🥰 thank you so much for being you💚
I would love to feel more confident in the clothes I wear...It's just that whenever I try to, my parents would find something in my body that is not perfect. I'm struggling to find my way, but soon I will move away from home and hope to start a new journey of self love and experimentation.
honestly I think that imitating people is seen so negatively while we all do it all the time and... it has lead to some great art, I mean, how many wonderful artists were inspired by others ? it doesn't make them worse, and we all know that they're good either ways so why would it be different with clothes? I think we're always influenced by other ppl, consciously or not, so what you said really resonated with me!!
I've been going through a change in my style these past several months as well. I'm a huge baggy clothes fan (but only with tops, I wear the same pair of skinny jeans every day lol) and I always thought that was just my style but recently I came to realize that it stemmed from insecurity. I've been both working out and working on accepting the way I look and I've already thfited four shirts for the summer that I never would've worn last year! I also bought my first ever casual dress which... I'm still unsure about wearing haha. I still love my grandpa sweaters but I'm trying to learn to reach out and wear what I want without judging how it looks on me. The hardest part has definitely been trying to accept that I'm not as big as I make myself to be in my head... Yay for growth!
I always love to watch your videos and listen to what you talk about. I want to ask about where some of your clothes are from. 2:16 green shirt, 6:50 green dress, 7:51 orange/pink ish dress, 10:19 checkerboard print skirt and the last piece of clothes is your green pants. 💜💚😊 I just want to let you know, that you always make me feel better about myself, and more confident💚💜🇩🇰
So many amazing points made in this vid 💚💚💚 I think there's a huge gatekeeping issue in fashion, unfortunately. When I was growing up I hated seeing someone wear the same clothing as me because I thrived when I felt unique. But as an adult when someone asks where I got a certain piece of clothing I am si chuffed and excited to share that info because it means that person loved a piece in my outfit enough to ask where it's from. I wear whatever the hell i want. I'm introverted but when I wear an outfit I'm in love with.. as cliche as it sounds.. girls, boys wear that outfit with CONFIDENCE!!! that's the real last accessory. I get a lot more compliments when I look and feel confident in my outfits.
Sissel and open-back-tops: 🤝 By the way, next time I'm going shopping, I'm gonna try these stretchy pants too, cause every time I see them I LOOOOVE them but I tell myselt that my culotte-de-cheval would stick out too much. F**K it, Sissel told me I can wear what I want! 😂
Loving your confidence Sissel! Everything you said is so true. Women are so hard on themselves and this needs to change. We need more people like you who realize and are willing to share this message with grace and confidence
wooo sissel upload day!! im starting to start afresh for university (i start in sep!) and im going for a minimal, light street style that's been all over my pinterest and archive twitter. you really inspire me to have fun with it, not fretting so much about how it will look according to my body but how it will make my body and heart feel. thank u girl
I’ve been struggling with telling myself that certain clothing look different on me because of my body type and you speaking up about it really does make me feel better about myself. You are an inspiration to me as a person :D!!
I agree so much that we shouldn't limit ourselves to clothes that "fit" our body types! For the longest time I was afraid to get baggy jeans just because I'm short and my legs are thick, and people around me told that to me as well, until one day I tried a pair on and guess what - I looked great in them!
I've always been inspired by you, in terms of Fashion or just in Life. This video has definitely created that ✨SPARK ✨ i needed in my soul to feel comfortable in what i wear and I'm gon move forward and lit a fire heh. Thankyou for always being right on time Sissel. Love ya 💚
Right now I'm confortable with my own style. Before I was afraid of buying what I trully wanted to wear (especially skirts and dresses) but right now I just buy what I like and I dont try to follow a trend or an aesthetic because I like many different things, its more fun to mix them all! I also save photos of clothes that I like on Instagram and that helps me to see what kind of styles I'm going for. My closet its not 100% how I want it to be yet, but its going in the right direction :)) Thanks for this video 💚
as someone who is still experimenting with my personal style this video was really helpful. hopefully i wont splurge on unnecesary items, that i have been doing and always regretted it haha and be mindful about my purchases! loved the video xx
I have currently recognized a hoarding issue I have with clothing. I associate pieces I own with versions of me or periods in my life and I can’t bring myself to let them go. The nostalgia they hold is too precious. I’m going to be 30 and I can’t get rid of my outfit I wore to my 8th grade homecoming! I don’t know how to rationalize with myself at all… Also! That white sweater with the open/tie back! At 3:55! I am IN LOVE.
Ah yes I have friends who say they feel like this too! Unfortunately I have absolutely nothing smart to say since I’m totally the opposite 🙊💚 The shirt is from a really old collection of zara 💚
I love listening to your advice🤍🧚🏻♀️ thank you for encouraging us to let go of only dressing on one style and „for our bodytype“! I wonder where a few of the clothes are from: The green crinkly too with back cutout at 5:20, your favourite green summer dress at 7:46 and lastly the white knit crop top at 9:18! Thank you so much for creating such uplifting and wholesome content 💚
I didn't ask you for permission, I just went and bought that same silk crop top in black! It't perfect and I love it so much!! In Norway the culture also was like that, you couldn't buy the same things as you friends or class mates. I actually got bullied at school, and it didn't help when I sometimes would show up in the same clothing item that somebody else got first. It happened a couple of times, and they thought I just wanted to become that person (because the person wearing it was "cool" and "popular"), and they were pointing out how impossible that would be for me because of x, y and z. So for the longest time I didn't buy anything that I liked if I saw somebody else had it. Or I wore it on vacation or the days we didn't have school, where none of them could see me.. But now as I've grown older (in my 20s), I've started to give a duck about that. And actually, some of my friends came up to me one time and said "I wish I could've bought that, but you have it soo..." And I said of course you can buy it, it't just cool that you like the same stuff as I do, and it's even cooler if we randomly match one day when we meet
Hi Sissel ✨ I watch your vlogs for 2 years now, and I wanted to tell you that I love so much your spirit, the ideas of freedom, growth and empowerment of women you share in your channel and the podcast (which is amazing btw), i think you’re such a good model for young girls in this world and I feel like if we knew each other in real life we could be good friend ☺️ send you love and support from France 💛🇫🇷 !
Am I the only one who was like omggg thats freaking cute on every piece of your clothing even the ones you took out and I can say for sure from Sissel's ig and vids she nailsssss everything she owns. Also ahhh bumped I don't live in Seoul. Anyway Sissel you rock on giving me and other people confidence💚
OMG perfect timing girl! I have recently been burn out and just over whelmed with life I guess, not knowing exactly where and what to do...I have been at home more and less active, which of course caused me to gain a bit of weight just in time for the hot Israeli summer 🤣 not exactly good timing with short dresses and all haha...but while I am taking care of it with going back on track with healthy eating and working out I also have just told my self to wear exactly what I want, and trying my hardest not to care with it all! because its not only looks, its for our physical and mental health first! its so important, and I love how your using your social media, videos and all for the greater good! I love your channel, you are lovely, stay safe and happy! ❤
Remember that a bit of weight gain isn’t something that should be “taken care of”, it’s your body in all it’s perfection none the less. This is a great opportunity to practice mirror work and to get closer to your body. I wish you all the best 💚💚
Omg I’m literally go through a style crisis rn. I keep wanting to get rid of my clothes and to start over since my fashion sense changed but I’m struggling to put together a decent closet, my goal is to have stable basics and some fun pieces. I hope to thrift most of my dream closet, and buy mostly second hand😄.
Your messaging is incredible as always, Sis! I truly don't have the courage to dress the way I want to or to fit my own aesthetic, because I hate the idea of attracting attention to myself (and also because I have some curves here and there, which I think won't look very flattering in the style I want). But I'm working on it and your message in this video inspired me even more : ) Thank you for that! x
I think it’s helpful to do some inner work and find out where this discomfort from attention comes from. This could help you work on it I’m sure. Sending you so much love 💚
I never liked these "who wore it better " pictures cause why would you say that one lady looks pretty and the other one looks ugly? I totally agree that this is toxic. Me and my bestie used to always buy the same clothes growing up and we had so much fun going out matching. I mean we don't do that anymore but still it's a sweet memory 💕 great topics were talked about in today's video as well Sissel👏✨
I'm in the same situation as u r! I'm trying to find my style and I am more confident now in styling myself. But the problem is i don't have enough clothes and colors of clothes i own. But I'll take it as an advantage to build my wardrobe the wag I want it to be. Thanks for your tips!
Literally was planing to deep clean my closet tomorrow so this video was the perfect timing !! But I love the skirt at 10:17 and was wondering where it’s from 🥺💚
Sissel you are my comfort zone. There is very little things keeping me sane and I am so thankful you are here and that I found you bcs I can just totally cancel world and feel relaxed for some time. Also, I need to know what brand is the white knit tshirt with open back at 3:58.
I am on the thicker side and I have been told multiple times that pants like your green ones don't look good on me because it's meant for skinny people. But I choose what to wear, not them :)
I don't usually comment on videos. But now I just feel like saying that you really inspire me, I would really love to be like you♥️ I have watched all your videos, so I am a loyal subscriber and one of your devoted followers on Instagram too. I think I almost double your age, but I still would like to follow your steps. I feel you are so fortunate now: you have been able to create a wonderful life for you, in a country that is foreign to you (and at a very young age), and have been able to keep yourself disciplined for that. I admire your discipline, apart from your results. When I watched your videos about your routine, I thought "Wow, I would so much love to have the mental mindset to be able to do that: to record and document material, and then edit in such an aesthetic way and create beautiful emotions and interest for viewers". I am very responsible when it comes to my job, and right now I love it. But I also wanted to try my luck with social media and I was awful at it. I got appalling results and that demotivated me tremendously. I went to Korea, an experience I loved, but I felt I was not able to make the most of it, so I felt so guilty... I would like to come one day and tell you "I have been able to overcome my negative emotions and reached my goals". If that happens, it will also be thanks to you and the inspiration you give me♥️
Hey Sissel, I've been a faithful subscriber of your channel for a few years now and I'm loving the mature and introspective turn your content has taken
Hi! I'm curious about the top at 05:19. It's a dark yellow color with a green hue and a circle cut out. I think it has matching bottoms as well at 11:14? Thank you so much, Sissel! :)
Sissel, you're so sweet and your style shows your inner self for 100% and omg this virgo top... ugh im in L O V E , where can i buy it? love and lots of inspiration to u 💚
I haven't been that confident over the past year because I live outside of Seoul. I found that when I wear exactly what I want I get stared at even more 😭 My friends and I often categorize clothes as "for Seoul" and "not for Seoul" 😂 but this year I want to change that! I want to be more confident in what I wear no matter where I am 😊 I'm going to get stared at anyway so might as well look good lol
Are you comfortable with wearing what you want? 💚
If yes - share your tips girl!
If no - why so?
No i feel like I don't experiment with my style .... Im always wearing basic clothes and scared to try new options:)
I am in my young sixties I have never let the fashion industry decide what I wear I can think for myself my style and colours I am not here to please other people only myself. 👍😁
Yes, but also no. For my work in healthcare there are certain restrictions on what to wear (no croptop or short pants/skirts for example).

Y-day I actually spent an hour scrolling on my phone looking for a cute bodycon. Time to embrace me a little more.

It was SO REFRESHING to hear you say that you would like to give the clothes to someone really needing them. That's why I freaking love you Sissel ! 💚
Awwww 💚 I always want to give back 💚
Ugh perfect timing! With spring just around the corner there’s no better feeling than dumping out the old and giving yourself a fresh start. 💜
Aaaaaabsolutely!! 💚
I'm also going through that phase, being able to experiment with fashion without limiting myself because of what others might think of me. Usually I stuck to experimenting withing the fashion normality but I'm starting to do things for me and I don't feel embarrassed wearing things out 🥰
I love that!! 💚

Another things I've found is how I organize my clothes in the closet and drawer really make a difference in mood. If I'm less excited about a shirt or dress, I put it in front of things I normally reach for, so I make an effort to see it frequently. That's tricked my brain to remembering why I bought it in the first place, by putting it in a place of importance, so I get excited to wear it. If it's been a while since doing that, and I still don't wear it, only then will I part with that clothing item. Seems so silly a little trick that helps :)
Hey, Sissel- word of advice- sunlight, both direct and indirect affects fabric color, causing it to change(fade) over time- your closet gets so much natural light, you may want to consider introducing some blinds(if not already there) to help preserve the condition of your favourite, long haul items
omg sissel, i’m so happy every time you post 😭🫶🏻! you’re my comfort person, i want to live in Seoul one day and your channel warms my dreamy heart (if that makes sense lol). you’re making me SO inspired, in one of your latest videos you said that you’re feeling “calm collected connected” and that inspire me for my portfolio 😫👍🏻💕 thank you for posting, love you✨🪐
Aww thank you love 💚
my click was faster than light ❤️🤩
Hahaha I love that 💚
SAME hahahahah😭😭😁😹😹😹
Aaa you’re such an amazing human being Sissel. It’s literally shining happiness and love from you and every word you say. This truly inspired me! I’ve been wanting my own style for SUCH a long time and thought I had to “stick” to only one, but I’m not doing that. I’m going to make a folder on Instagram now and then play around in my wardrobe 🥰 thank you so much for being you💚
I would love to feel more confident in the clothes I wear...It's just that whenever I try to, my parents would find something in my body that is not perfect. I'm struggling to find my way, but soon I will move away from home and hope to start a new journey of self love and experimentation.
honestly I think that imitating people is seen so negatively while we all do it all the time and... it has lead to some great art, I mean, how many wonderful artists were inspired by others ? it doesn't make them worse, and we all know that they're good either ways so why would it be different with clothes? I think we're always influenced by other ppl, consciously or not, so what you said really resonated with me!!
i love your message about the copying of fashion and outfits! so so so true!!!!
This is such a beautiful initiative, to hand out the clothing like that. ❤️ love love love!
I love your videos sissel... They're just so beautifully prepared and edited😭i love you 💚keep growing
That makes me so happy, thanks for saying that 🥺💚
I've been going through a change in my style these past several months as well. I'm a huge baggy clothes fan (but only with tops, I wear the same pair of skinny jeans every day lol) and I always thought that was just my style but recently I came to realize that it stemmed from insecurity. I've been both working out and working on accepting the way I look and I've already thfited four shirts for the summer that I never would've worn last year! I also bought my first ever casual dress which... I'm still unsure about wearing haha.
I still love my grandpa sweaters but I'm trying to learn to reach out and wear what I want without judging how it looks on me. The hardest part has definitely been trying to accept that I'm not as big as I make myself to be in my head... Yay for growth!
How I wish I was in Seoul rn just to have coffee with you 🥺💚
dear sissel i love your videos, your vibe and thoughts that you share with us… this is a free therapy, thank you 💗
I always love to watch your videos and listen to what you talk about. I want to ask about where some of your clothes are from. 2:16 green shirt, 6:50 green dress, 7:51 orange/pink ish dress, 10:19 checkerboard print skirt and the last piece of clothes is your green pants. 💜💚😊 I just want to let you know, that you always make me feel better about myself, and more confident💚💜🇩🇰
2:16 Open Product
6:50 Raive
7:51 Verge Girl
10:19 Zara
Green pants are from Remain by Birger Christensen
💚
Love seeing people wear their style and not what the fashion industry provides. 👍🥰
💚
So many amazing points made in this vid 💚💚💚 I think there's a huge gatekeeping issue in fashion, unfortunately. When I was growing up I hated seeing someone wear the same clothing as me because I thrived when I felt unique. But as an adult when someone asks where I got a certain piece of clothing I am si chuffed and excited to share that info because it means that person loved a piece in my outfit enough to ask where it's from.
I wear whatever the hell i want. I'm introverted but when I wear an outfit I'm in love with.. as cliche as it sounds.. girls, boys wear that outfit with CONFIDENCE!!! that's the real last accessory. I get a lot more compliments when I look and feel confident in my outfits.
Sissel and open-back-tops: 🤝
By the way, next time I'm going shopping, I'm gonna try these stretchy pants too, cause every time I see them I LOOOOVE them but I tell myselt that my culotte-de-cheval would stick out too much. F**K it, Sissel told me I can wear what I want! 😂
Oh yess💚
uuuuh I love your videos! and also your talk about different body types. you are such an inspiration! ❤️❤️❤️
Loving your confidence Sissel! Everything you said is so true. Women are so hard on themselves and this needs to change. We need more people like you who realize and are willing to share this message with grace and confidence
💚✨
wooo sissel upload day!! im starting to start afresh for university (i start in sep!) and im going for a minimal, light street style that's been all over my pinterest and archive twitter. you really inspire me to have fun with it, not fretting so much about how it will look according to my body but how it will make my body and heart feel. thank u girl
I love that 💚
I’ve been struggling with telling myself that certain clothing look different on me because of my body type and you speaking up about it really does make me feel better about myself. You are an inspiration to me as a person :D!!
💚
i love you so much sissel! your video always makes me feel so calm and peaceful, i really needed that right now so thank you so much
I agree so much that we shouldn't limit ourselves to clothes that "fit" our body types!
For the longest time I was afraid to get baggy jeans just because I'm short and my legs are thick, and people around me told that to me as well, until one day I tried a pair on and guess what - I looked great in them!
I really love your videos! 💚 fully inspired by your comments on how to wear confidently! :)
I’m currently in a phase which I’m no longer comfortable with my personal style and this video just came at a perfect timing. Thank you sissel 🥰💖.
I've always been inspired by you, in terms of Fashion or just in Life. This video has definitely created that ✨SPARK ✨ i needed in my soul to feel comfortable in what i wear and I'm gon move forward and lit a fire heh. Thankyou for always being right on time Sissel. Love ya 💚
I love that so much! Wish you the best 💚
Right now I'm confortable with my own style. Before I was afraid of buying what I trully wanted to wear (especially skirts and dresses) but right now I just buy what I like and I dont try to follow a trend or an aesthetic because I like many different things, its more fun to mix them all! I also save photos of clothes that I like on Instagram and that helps me to see what kind of styles I'm going for. My closet its not 100% how I want it to be yet, but its going in the right direction :))
Thanks for this video 💚
I love that!! Good luck love 💚
as someone who is still experimenting with my personal style this video was really helpful. hopefully i wont splurge on unnecesary items, that i have been doing and always regretted it haha and be mindful about my purchases! loved the video xx
Ugghh in love with your thoughts ❤️❤️💕 such a positive presence.🥺
I have currently recognized a hoarding issue I have with clothing. I associate pieces I own with versions of me or periods in my life and I can’t bring myself to let them go. The nostalgia they hold is too precious. I’m going to be 30 and I can’t get rid of my outfit I wore to my 8th grade homecoming! I don’t know how to rationalize with myself at all…
Also! That white sweater with the open/tie back! At 3:55! I am IN LOVE.
Ah yes I have friends who say they feel like this too! Unfortunately I have absolutely nothing smart to say since I’m totally the opposite 🙊💚
The shirt is from a really old collection of zara 💚
I love listening to your advice🤍🧚🏻♀️ thank you for encouraging us to let go of only dressing on one style and „for our bodytype“! I wonder where a few of the clothes are from: The green crinkly too with back cutout at 5:20, your favourite green summer dress at 7:46 and lastly the white knit crop top at 9:18! Thank you so much for creating such uplifting and wholesome content 💚
I didn't ask you for permission, I just went and bought that same silk crop top in black! It't perfect and I love it so much!! In Norway the culture also was like that, you couldn't buy the same things as you friends or class mates. I actually got bullied at school, and it didn't help when I sometimes would show up in the same clothing item that somebody else got first. It happened a couple of times, and they thought I just wanted to become that person (because the person wearing it was "cool" and "popular"), and they were pointing out how impossible that would be for me because of x, y and z. So for the longest time I didn't buy anything that I liked if I saw somebody else had it. Or I wore it on vacation or the days we didn't have school, where none of them could see me.. But now as I've grown older (in my 20s), I've started to give a duck about that.
And actually, some of my friends came up to me one time and said "I wish I could've bought that, but you have it soo..." And I said of course you can buy it, it't just cool that you like the same stuff as I do, and it's even cooler if we randomly match one day when we meet
I’d love to see an overview of everything you kept in your entire closet after the clean out!
Our wardrobes look quite similar...LOTS OF GREEN!
Always so nice of you Sissel. Hand over clothes is very suweet. Guess I luv you for a reason😉🥰
Hi Sissel ✨ I watch your vlogs for 2 years now, and I wanted to tell you that I love so much your spirit, the ideas of freedom, growth and empowerment of women you share in your channel and the podcast (which is amazing btw), i think you’re such a good model for young girls in this world and I feel like if we knew each other in real life we could be good friend ☺️ send you love and support from France 💛🇫🇷 !
Aww thank you for saying that love 💚
Am I the only one who was like omggg thats freaking cute on every piece of your clothing even the ones you took out and I can say for sure from Sissel's ig and vids she nailsssss everything she owns. Also ahhh bumped I don't live in Seoul. Anyway Sissel you rock on giving me and other people confidence💚
I just love you so much, your opinion and the way you articulate everything you think 💚
me and my best friend are alwys fangirling about you 🤣
Awww haha 💚
Absolutely love that you are giving away the clothes that no longer serve you to those in need!
Thank you Sissel! A nice calm, peaceful video and motivating video. Beautiful Sissel
So happy when I see notification from you 🥰
💚
OMG perfect timing girl! I have recently been burn out and just over whelmed with life I guess, not knowing exactly where and what to do...I have been at home more and less active, which of course caused me to gain a bit of weight just in time for the hot Israeli summer 🤣 not exactly good timing with short dresses and all haha...but while I am taking care of it with going back on track with healthy eating and working out I also have just told my self to wear exactly what I want, and trying my hardest not to care with it all! because its not only looks, its for our physical and mental health first! its so important, and I love how your using your social media, videos and all for the greater good! I love your channel, you are lovely, stay safe and happy! ❤
Remember that a bit of weight gain isn’t something that should be “taken care of”, it’s your body in all it’s perfection none the less. This is a great opportunity to practice mirror work and to get closer to your body. I wish you all the best 💚💚
@@sisselab 💚💚 thank u for ur lovely reply, true of course, i agree. I will remember 💚💚
Omg I’m literally go through a style crisis rn. I keep wanting to get rid of my clothes and to start over since my fashion sense changed but I’m struggling to put together a decent closet, my goal is to have stable basics and some fun pieces. I hope to thrift most of my dream closet, and buy mostly second hand😄.
Your messaging is incredible as always, Sis! I truly don't have the courage to dress the way I want to or to fit my own aesthetic, because I hate the idea of attracting attention to myself (and also because I have some curves here and there, which I think won't look very flattering in the style I want). But I'm working on it and your message in this video inspired me even more : ) Thank you for that! x
I think it’s helpful to do some inner work and find out where this discomfort from attention comes from. This could help you work on it I’m sure. Sending you so much love 💚
Thank you so much for your tips Sissel !!! Love you 💗 and God bless you ✨
Please do more fashion videos! Your style it's to die for 💚
I never liked these "who wore it better " pictures cause why would you say that one lady looks pretty and the other one looks ugly? I totally agree that this is toxic. Me and my bestie used to always buy the same clothes growing up and we had so much fun going out matching. I mean we don't do that anymore but still it's a sweet memory 💕 great topics were talked about in today's video as well Sissel👏✨
I so agree 🥺💚
I'm in the same situation as u r! I'm trying to find my style and I am more confident now in styling myself. But the problem is i don't have enough clothes and colors of clothes i own. But I'll take it as an advantage to build my wardrobe the wag I want it to be. Thanks for your tips!
I love the face you make when you put pieces in the "no longer serves me" pile
Literally was planing to deep clean my closet tomorrow so this video was the perfect timing !!
But I love the skirt at 10:17 and was wondering where it’s from 🥺💚
It’s from Zara 💚
Thanks for sharing, it's was inspiring 💜
Thank you for sharing such positive and important thoughts 💛
Sissel you are my comfort zone. There is very little things keeping me sane and I am so thankful you are here and that I found you bcs I can just totally cancel world and feel relaxed for some time. Also, I need to know what brand is the white knit tshirt with open back at 3:58.
Aww that makes me so soft in my heart to hear 💚 the shirt is from Zara a year or two ago 💚
I am on the thicker side and I have been told multiple times that pants like your green ones don't look good on me because it's meant for skinny people. But I choose what to wear, not them :)
thank you for another amazing video Sissel 💗
Loved the video 💚
Where's the green dress 7:45 from ?
I don't usually comment on videos. But now I just feel like saying that you really inspire me, I would really love to be like you♥️ I have watched all your videos, so I am a loyal subscriber and one of your devoted followers on Instagram too. I think I almost double your age, but I still would like to follow your steps.
I feel you are so fortunate now: you have been able to create a wonderful life for you, in a country that is foreign to you (and at a very young age), and have been able to keep yourself disciplined for that. I admire your discipline, apart from your results. When I watched your videos about your routine, I thought "Wow, I would so much love to have the mental mindset to be able to do that: to record and document material, and then edit in such an aesthetic way and create beautiful emotions and interest for viewers". I am very responsible when it comes to my job, and right now I love it. But I also wanted to try my luck with social media and I was awful at it. I got appalling results and that demotivated me tremendously. I went to Korea, an experience I loved, but I felt I was not able to make the most of it, so I felt so guilty... I would like to come one day and tell you "I have been able to overcome my negative emotions and reached my goals". If that happens, it will also be thanks to you and the inspiration you give me♥️
Beautiful video and it's so motivating! Thank you for sharing!📷✨🥰🦋🌿🎨
❤️Good luck and success
Totally agree with you. Thank you 💚
Your new content is so good!
Hey Sissel, I've been a faithful subscriber of your channel for a few years now and I'm loving the mature and introspective turn your content has taken
LOVE your makeup and style 💚!!
Thanks ! 💚
Hi! I'm curious about the top at 05:19. It's a dark yellow color with a green hue and a circle cut out. I think it has matching bottoms as well at 11:14? Thank you so much, Sissel! :)
Not you using the word cozy insted of hygge I feel you

10:42!! 🥺
Expired Girl💚
omg I love your new positive videos and I love you
Great video!
Another good video
I haven't been that confident over the past year because I live outside of Seoul. I found that when I wear exactly what I want I get stared at even more 😭 My friends and I often categorize clothes as "for Seoul" and "not for Seoul" 😂 but this year I want to change that! I want to be more confident in what I wear no matter where I am 😊 I'm going to get stared at anyway so might as well look good lol
Yessss, to hell with what other people think! I’ve really come to enjoy wearing what I want here the past year 💚
You are literally my style inspiration lol.
More trips to art supplies stores please 🥰
3rd💜🏃♀️
jake affected you very positive way!
Such a nice video, getting sister vibes from it💕 where is the green checkered blouse from at 0:05 ? Love you💕
Please come to Japan if you have a chance!
