    Actually I have developed a Migraine Today & I never thot about it, but Yes, I appreciate Eileen's Calm & Soothing Voice, even when I'm not feeling up to par Today!
    Thank You Eileen for your Beautiful Content & Lovely Voice!

    Love this! It's such good discipline to buy less and buy best you can afford. It feels luxurious, it will fit my shape and lifestyle better and help the environment too as it's simply more sustainable.

    I absolutely love your content. I think people think luxury means (in the materialistic world) owning everything but what it truly is, is loving everything you own and finding quality and peace in it. It could be anything from that point on… my mindset was already shifting and then i found you! Niche content. Since, English is not your first language (I’m guessing) you take good time to process your thoughts and speak precisely which I really like! After all, getting to hear precise thought process omitting excess blabbering is also a luxury in today’s times. Thanks.

      @@ColourfulNoir hehe.. one request.. just how consumerism can be an addiction.. I think once you start de cluttering it can eventually become an addiction too.. it feels so good to focus on the positive and get rid of physical possessions.. please do a video on how to not go overboard and keep the balance. ❤️

    Great jewelry tips 🥰✨
    I started on my wardrobe consciously, about 5 yrs ago. I think we dont get taught that as young adults. We kind of buy what we like randomly. I have so many options now. I dont feel overwhelmed because I actually bought timeless pieces that serve as building blocks. Im now teaching my sons to do that as well.

    😀Honest to goodness Eileen, you came through for me Love. Everything you say simply makes sense.😀 I love my tanks, camisoles & leggings too - All year round. I learned from you Love, basic colors make life so simple.
    Honestly, I can't tell you the last time I've used the community dry cleaners. I use DRYEL dry cleaning kits at home. So Much Cheaper. Yes, I wear my jeans several wears before washing....a couple of pairs I have that are slightly snug but truly fit wonderfully after a couple of wears...And in fact, I use Dryel to refresh them as the looser fit feels more comfortable. I TRULY APPRECIATE YOU EILEEN; YOU SIMPLE MAKE SENSE. Your wardrobe is rather impressive, clever & works so well together. You're Simply Smart which leads me to watching your videos more than once. My purging this time around is easier than ever before, and this video has helped. I don't need to keep all the tanks and camisoles I own, ONLY the basic neutral ones and 2 pops of color. I can't wear them all. My Life is going to be even more less stressful after this purge. Eileen, the space I have between my hangers now. 😁🥰🌷

    Yes, I learned about not washing the jeans recently! You're not supposed to wash them for at least 6 months! I'm on month 4, and truly the jeans are wonderful! They are becoming a unique pair, they stretched naturally and the fabric softened beautifully. Of course you have to be careful not to seriously stain them, but I think it goes without saying they we take care of our clothes and try not to spill things on them😆 I generally never washed my denim often, but I never knew about the first 6 months rule. And personally I find it helpful and see the reason behind it. Jeans need character, and character can only be developed with time👍

    Elaine, I thought about this when I started to create a small wardrobe and I created my wardrobe with varying price ranges and colors. I love blues so there is lots of blue and luckily so many things go well with blue. I live in the desert so clothes need to be cool almost all year round. Lots of natural fabrics. I would love to know how the denim recommendations go. I think I might try the SPANX jeans 👖 I tend to have problems with jeans fitting well. Right now my go to jeans are from Chico’s and they are fine. I would say the denim is middle of the road quality that still looks nice on. Later I would love to find a really nice high quality denim in a nice boot cut or flare leg…but it’s way too hot for that now ❤️‍🔥. Thank you for the nice video 🙌🏼

    I find it harder to consolidate my closet to a more minimalist state because I tend to be attracted to fun colors vs neutrals in everything: clothes, shoes, bags. And because of that it’s harder to match outfits, so it leads to larger quantities of everything. I wish I was a neutrals girl😊

    Love the black coat Eileen, Burberry or not, it looks elegant and well tailored.
    You are slim! What pear shaped? lol
    In fact, those tank tops look good on you since you have nice slender arms…hence I don’t think tank tops are for everyone (as staple pieces)…just my humble opinion…same goes for leggings…
    With jeans, give True Religion a try. I have few pairs of skinny jeans over 10 years old, still fit me quite well and don’t look dated either.
    You said “there’s no bad weather, just inappropriate clothing”, how true!
    Lately, I feel so uninspired with the latest fashion…styles are repeated with different patterns…different brands sharing the same styles…I learnt no matter how up to date you are, the next drop will roll out every 2-3 months…so when do we stop keeping up with the trend? Not only that, they are so overpriced!! So now, I say no to buying new clothes & just make use of what I have & loving them all over again…
    Pillowcases by Lily Silk are the only pieces I bought. So worth it…silkily soft…gave me restful sleeps, my hair doesn’t fall out & wrinkle free cheeks (I sleep on my sides alot)…would never go back to cotton pillowcases…
