I feel like the most important part of minimalism is not the decluttering itself, but not buying as much. Maybe do a no buy for a few months, I did it and it helped me so much to utilize the things I already own a lot more. Loved the video🩷
yesss i totally totally agree! i still love fashion and want to build a wardrobe i truly love but my mindset has changed a lot! xxx
Watching videos like "shopping my closet for fashion week outfits" or "costumes" are really helpful too for rediscovering and restyling. It get more use out of the items and stretches your creativity
Ahah your concept is called being poor and having no other choice than buying nothing 😂 Just kidding yes it is true, I declutter but yes buy a little I am trying to buy even less
I did no buy months out of necessity and finally used out all my clothes. I found out that high quality clothes really take a long time to use out. Recently I started buying new clothes to replace my old clothes. I feel so refreshed. 😌 these expensive, high quality clothes really pay off in the longterm.
@@meganshortthat’s awesome
"if this got stolen, would I be upset?" - changed my life
ahahaha me too i seen it on tiktok i think
“would I buy it now” is going to be my mindset next time I have a big clear out!! just need to throw my whole wardrobe away at this point😅
ABSOLUTELY!!!!
I've done plenty of decluttering over the last year....What finally worked for me was to do it in reverse. Instead of pulling out the items to get rid of (from your wardrobe etc), take it all out and put ONLY the 50 or however many you decide... back in. The ones left out of the wardrobe you can go through to find absolute declutters/donates...and anything that's still hard to part with, put in bins and store away from your room. Months later you can go through THOSE items or swap some out with the ones in your wardrobe to change things up a bit. It is SO amazing to have a smaller number of items to have to choose from each day! Enjoyed your video and hope you get closer and closer to the minimal life you want!
ooo this is soooo interesting!! thank you!!🫶🏼🫶🏼
I'm usually a silent viewer but I love minimalism / decluttering style videos like this - always motivate me to declutter every single thing I own 🤣
aw ahaha love that!! & your comment means a lot so thank you! 🫶🏼
Minimalism is hard… it’s not just about decluttering or getting rid of “stuff” it’s a mindset change..
You can clean out as many times as necessary but if you do t change your mindset and spending/buying habits then it won’t stop the cycle.
my problem isn’t buying at all i couldn’t tell u the last time i bought new clothes i just hoard old stuff! super mindful about my consumption especially after this! x
"I'm really just in the mood to own nothing" me when I decide I want to be an whole different aesthetic😂💕
ahahahha me most days tbh
Regarding tops and hoodies that you consider ugly but wear around the house all the time: keep them! They're being worn. Why get rid of something just for the sake of it? Now, that would be a huge waste! Thanks for this inspirational video!
i’ve been binging closet cleanouts and this is the first one that’s made me get up and actually do it! love them mindset of “would i buy it now?” and it helped me get rid of lots of clutter, thank you! 🥰
this video was actually super helpful for me. i struggle a lot with minor hoarding, especially with clothes. i often find myself asking "what if i regret it later" even if i haven't thought about it in months. seeing how you were also struggling to get rid of things, yet were able to change your mindset and persevere was inspiring. ❤️
It was so nice listening to your thought process. Love how honest and real you were and it was encouraging to see you get rid of things even though you like them
Your reasonings for each item was phenomenal. You did a really nice job describing how each item made you feel
Happy that I came across this! I’m moving in the spring into a new home and I honestly loved when you said that you don’t want to keep things that don’t fit you or make you feel good. I’ve gained weight since COVID and have gone up 2-3 dress sizes and I’m still having trouble with getting rid of my old clothes that I struggle to fit in. But this is inspiring to me just get rid of those clothes.
Try rotating clothes! If you have seasonal clothes you know you only wear in summer or winter try storing them away until it’s time to break them out again! It’ll help open up some space and make it feel more ‘minimal’ :)
Decluttering is a process. Not buying as little as possible over the months…. Or more lol of decluttering is key. I would declutter over and over again. And every time I did I was able to let go MORE that I really didn’t use. Also, finding your authentic tic style is KEY. And, that sometimes requires purchasing. But once you define that and say a big YES you will be content with so so much less. Continual accumulating is a silent statement of, I’m not content but don’t know what will make me content. So, defining style and aesthetic, in my 60 year experience is essential. And, of course. As you get older and change, so will your style. And that’s as it should be. But what I love now. What I am drawn to now, I can honestly say I have always been drawn to since my 20’s but flowed along with what the trends were so I never achieved it until now. Good luck. Love your video!!!
Listened to this on my way home from work. Got home and I've already got 7 dresses in the charity pile 🙌🏼
Literally decluttered my pj’s today after watching this yesterday!
they pj draw can get so dusty i had some bad tops in there 🤭🤣
The easiest part of my apartment to minimalize and curate was the bathroom. To me it was easy to only keep and re-buy the things that really worked for me. The overall set up of my bathroom also is rather minimal. And it works like a charm. That to me also includes skincare, haircare, bodycare and make up.
But my wardrobe? Hell, what a nightmare! I am on it now though. I even got my colors done to make it easier for me (and no, I do not fully and only stick to my "best colors", but it made it easier to choose a color scheme for me that I really liked and can actually work with). I already know what body type I am, what Kibbe ID, what essence blend according to Kitchener's system, and my style roots, but I needed to tie these together in order to make it work for my own lifestyle and personality. I already have a small capsule for special occasions/events and that contains really just everything I need to dress up, if I feel like it or need to. But my everyday wardrobe... it's a mess. Mostly because I never really knew what I REALLY wanted to wear and tried so many different styles, fashion looks etc.
I'm getting better and I can see progress, but it's still a lot of work to be done for me.
Meg the thumbnails recently have been top tier, love this one!!! Smashing it xxx
appreciate it a lot !!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼
Your thought process when decluttering is very relatable. I'm trying but it's hard to make these decisions sometimes.
I just love being a woman! Just chilling, watching other women decluttering their wardrobe is my therapy!
ahahha love this
I did my reorganise earlier as well! Autumn clean > spring clean. Broadcast girly ❤
love that for u!!!! also hey hehe
I’ve been subscribed for yeaaars but TH-cam stopped showing your videos for me! The 100k part made me tear up lmaoo. Glad to have you back on my feed 🫶🏻
awww no way! well thank you so much, so happy to have you back!🩷
been saving this for my chill tuesday and so happy to watch this! you look stunnningggg I have to say, hope you’re doing well x
means the world thank you so so much!! hope you’re doing well also!! xx
i saw the green jacket and immediately thought of the grinch 😭 i have toooo many clothes that looked cute in the store or online but then they just rot in my closet
loved this megan. watched you for years and im sure ive seen you in all of these clothes! all stunninng outfits, ive taken so much inspo of you! the end of an era! Loved this xx
thank you so so much!! that’s so funny hehe really is x
For me, it really helps to stick to ‘my’ colours. I only wear black, blue denim, black/white stripes, grey and the occasional green. It makes getting dressed so easy! Also making pics of your outfits and saving them in 1 album on your phone. That way, you always have some basic outfits on hand.
I need to declutter for when me and my bf move in a few months, I love doing it but it’s the thought and motivation 😂
it’s such a perfect video for me right now! thank u megan!!
i’m so glad!! hope you love it!🫶🏼🫶🏼
i loved it! i literally started to declutter my clothes while watching, thank u for the inspiration queen!!
It really is so freeing to let go ❤ i am so freakin proud of you!🎉
I did a clear out a couple of months ago and now I have such an urge to do it all again 😂 this vid has inspired me hahah
why does it feel SO good
You did such a great job!!!🎉🎉❤
I'm going thru this now, although tbh, I'm about to turn 55 (so a lot older than you lol) and want only things I love to be in my life. ❤I'm tired of holding on to the "well they are a nice whatever so I should keep it". I'd rather do without than keep only things I half-love just to have something. 😊
Please keep in mind minimalism is often for those who have the privilege to throw things away so easily. Or have the ability to just buy new things, especially of higher quality. Many people will hoard items or wear things until they are falling apart because they can't afford to buy anything else. A key part of minimalism is being a more conscious consumer as well. Just a personal perspective!
I’ve never clicked on a video so fast in all my life, love a good declutter 🤗
oh my god yay!! hope u enjoy!!!
Favorite or Get out. Good easy rule to follow. Our body language and facial expression shows us how we feel about a garment
this earned you a new subscriber and me a melt down because decluttering is so tiring! anyways this motivated me its the best when you get everything sorted out!
oh my god it’s truly the BEST feeling ! 💘 also thanks for the sub and my deepest apologies for the melt down :(
I cleaned out 15 13gl bags of clothing and gave then to my Neice, looking at my closet, I know I have just as much still to clean out. After browning up with nothing, it’s hard to let go. I’m not messy and nothing is thrown around, but it’s becoming an eye soar as there is just so much stuff. I want to minimize, but there’s always that “ I’ll wear that with those jeans”. I too have tried to sell on line and did pretty well, but what doesn’t sell just sits around.
I can totally encourage you, to try packing up EVERYTHING accept of 30 clothing items. You don't have to get rid of everything, but experiencing the less really, helps to know, why you are doing it
I’ve been waiting for this one!!! 🤩🤩
too kind !!!!
I ordered from ur Vinted the other day hahaha! Absolutely loved this video they’re my fave type. So satisfying
oh my god love that !!! glad u enjoyed
@meganshort hi, what's your vinted name please? :)
Absolutely loved watching this video :) Love a good declutter - thank you for sharing! :)
thank you!!
That red pijama set is so cute
Well done! You could only keep similar black hangers and get rid of the others. 😊
yeah i think i will! xx
Good job. Keep things that make you happy. Also socks 😊
Where is the art print from in your bathroom? I love it so much ❤
The amount of tags there where 🤯
Do the no buy challenge ✨ it helps 💅🏽
I love the question: if this got stolen, would I be upset?
Would I wear this rather than sth I already own?
that are really helpful declutter questions
yesss! & would i buy it now! xx
PLEASE also think about your consumption to help keep things at a manageable level :)
This was a great declutter but not a ruthless one. In your wardrobe you kept so many things were you said I don't love this but i'll keep it ahah. if you don't love it it has to go! the one were you said i need to get things to style it with. this is the opposite of minimalism. i think you made great progress but you could go so much deeper
Loved this video! I am also currently decluttering everything and it is so motivating to see others go through it as well and see how you take decisions about keeping/tossing. Random question: Which mic do you use? I feel like the sound quality is pretty good even though sometimes you're in front, sometimes in the back of the camera - my mic doesn't do that 🤣
i feel like this closet will never look good and minimalistic if you dont use similar hangers. Its less but still looks like pure chaos. I also wouldnt put shoes on my closet since shoes are dirty and might smell.
arent you missing the point of minimalism
... its a lifestyle, not a one week reset. 🤷🏻♀️
ahahah no i totally get that
amazing vidoe i enjoy cool looks awesome pretty stunning queen
Found your channel today through this vid! heeeey! new subbie lol. also totally going against the theme of this vid... where are your red and white polka dot PJs from? ty
aw amazing thank you! primark :)
7:40 Would I wear this over buying something I already owned? What does she even mean? 🤭
Motivating
I decluttered so many stale snacks and the snacks I actually eat daily no longer have to live on the conter
commenting again because I love this video
ahahaha ily
Just because you have the space doesn’t mean you need to fill it up that’s what I realized. it’s OK to have empty space in your closets and cabinets etc. I want to have things I love not just like
Only just started watching this vid so you may mention it but - whats your vinted? Xx
Omgggg where are both your nose piercings from? ❤️
claire’s always! the best
I'll take the converse shoes you don't want
So sad the bathroom declutter is goneeeee
Is the pink jumpsuit sold?? 😥😍😍😍
yes sorry !
Where is your cream puffer from? I need one!!
urban outfitters last year but zara have a super similar one this year xx
It appears you purchase bottle green and then don't wear it but love those pieces...
broadcast girlies ftw 💕
girls that get it get it
I think some stuff are not worth it. If you can only style one outfit, then it’s not worth it
“Come November”
It’s November
this was filmed in september aha
What’s your Vinted username? Xx
Has anyone told you that you kind of look like Maisie Williams?
You did do a good job but there is no point to this if you are just making room to buy more.
You also said you do this every 6 months? How is that possible?
This world has become crazy.
Wars are fought and meanwhile young privileged people are complaining about feeling exhausted while clearing out tons of redundant goodies….
Sorry, is just very disheartening to me.
I know you are trying but I feel younger generations so often want to be Vegan or a Minimalist because it is yet another trend to hop on. I so hope you figure out who you are instead of trying to be who others are.
This is a wonderful world and it is filled with young people, and older people, looking for a direction, I hope you keep finding yourself to be an example.
But mostly, I hope your work on here leads to you making this a better world and that you will be happy.
Have a lovely day everyone.
These are the videos I live for, straight up FaceTime vibes 🫶🏼
awww love that thank you sm xxx
Girl ur ganna need more natural colors If ur ganna be a minimalist 😂
Personally I think minimal colours do fit really well with that clean uncluttered look. But I do think it comes down to having less stuff and not so much about the aesthetic 😊 plus I think if she's someone who naturally loves a lot of colour she shouldn't change that just to fit in with the minimalist aesthetic. Just as an example I've seen people get rid of colorful clothes and decor because they think they have to to be a minimalist, only to realize that it's not their style and have to buy stuff again and redecorate, which isn't very minimalist 😂
I seen you walking past market street today you was wearing green pants and had your head phones on you look smaller in real life
ahahha i’m a small gal
@@meganshort... you look fabulous in the dark green sweatshirt in this video. I think you really need more of this color in your wardrobe (shirts), because it looks great with your eye color. Get rid of a couple pastel colored tops to make up the difference. You would look great in vibrant jewell tones!
hello Beautiful 😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️
lol 😂 your goal is followers on TH-cam
The green jacket is awful, respecfully hha
You were never began, plant based and vegan are two different things
@@lucievelyn4866 Vegans are ppl against animal explotatiion....You would never see an ex vegan. Plant based is someone who's eating plant based due to diet preferences. They don't care about the animal suffering. This is done just for the fact eating other sentient beings isn't healthy either comes with consequences
Straight from the insta group chat ❤❤❤
you’re a REAL one 🫶🏼🫶🏼
