TAYLOR! Girl, thank you so much for being vulnerable in this video and finally telling me that it’s okay to get rid of those clothes that are my “someday I will fit back into this” items. Feeling inspired to go through my closet and get rid of the things that don’t make my body feel good right now. You’re amazing. If you’re ever looking for a thrifting buddy in Southern Wyoming, Northern Colorado, let me know!
Taylor this is one of my favorites from you. Filming this took guts - kudos girl and so inspiring. I think women of all ages and sizes can relate. Also, the beauty of thrifting is that new, even better pieces will be coming your way soon. 💗💗💗
Right here with you re: the body changes over the past two years. But once I finally got my act together to donate the stuff that didn’t fit, I was excited to thrift again for replacements and MAN it feels better to finally have pants that I don’t hate again!
This is legitimately radical! I haven’t ever seen this experience shared online, but it’s comforting and empowering to watch and should start a trend. It was also nostalgic🥺 We remember animal print Taylor! I didn’t know that phase was over. She was an icon, a legend, the moment.
Taking a pause in the video to say you are amazing. Not only is your style fun and adventurous, but you are a kick ass, beautiful human! You’re doing an awesome thing tackling your fear. I wish I could like the video a thousand times 🙂
LOVED the "REAL TALK MOMENTS", it's SO NECESSARY in this day and age. We're here for ya girl 💓 ... as women our bodies change every few years and for a myriad of reasons and with 3yrs of pandemonium and MAJOR life changes, we have ALL felt or are feeling this. Also, now you have room for new looks, new energy and new iconic fashion moments!
I go through my closet all the time now to purge things, but way back when, one of the first times I did it, it was so hard accepting things didn't fit me anymore (both because I had grown a few sizes AND because some stuff I straight up had since elementary school). But once those pieces were gone and I didnt face them everyday, unable to wear them, I feel so much more confident getting dressed. And I basically have never "missed" a piece I got rid of. The process is hard but it feels so good once that stuff is OUT!!!!
Thank you for sharing how hard it can be when our bodies change over time. My body has been shifting because of a medical condition, and I can't wear my beloved jeans right now. You've really helped me to realize that I need to embrace a looser style of pants right now, and to enjoy the chance to try a new look. Your positivity and honesty are so helpful! You go girl!
So proud of you. This is a step a lot of us have to take at some point in our lived, and I'm thankful to have been allowed to witness you go through this. Thanks for letting us be here with you, friend!
So happy for you that you purged not only your closets, but your self. I went from a size 8 to a 14 during the upheaval and I know how hard it is not to feel incredibly self conscious. Keep loving the person you are whatever your body looks like at any given time. You are special.
I feel you girl. 27 and struggling with accepting that my body has just changed and refusing to go up a pants size even if I really should. Thank you for this video.
This one hit lady! I love all of your content but this one is so relatable to everyone who has undergone some transformation during the pandemic. I did a similar purge recently and it felt like I wasn't just getting rid of my clothes, but I was getting rid of the life I used to have and the person I used to be. I know that sounds dramatic, but when you are giving away all of your going out clothes because you don't see yourself going out much in the future, it makes you confront your new life. You are doing the nitty gritty of self-care, and it is so hard, but what you are really doing is making room for yourself to grow into a new person. Xoxo
The editing and intro were sooo good! And thank you for the realness. Over the last year I’ve let go of several clothing items that no longer fit me….however I haven’t been able to tackle my jeans. I have so many that I love that are not even close to fitting but I don’t want to part with. I relate to your struggle through this process!
Thanks for being so vulnerable with us! I broke my leg in 2020 and it led to my body completely changing in its shape and function and getting rid of clothing was hard at first for me too. It’s been a struggle as I’ve aged to gain weight and accept it, but it gets easier! I highly recommend the podcast maintenance phase, it will change you whole idea on your body and health and it’s really helped me on this journey of loving my body. I also bought your overalls since I just sold the pair I loved that was too small 😘
IMO you are so beautiful, and you are my favorite TH-cam thrifter! I think second hand shopping is so helpful for accommodating our bodies and the phases they shift through; it’s cheaper, more sustainable, and we can redonate when pieces have served their purpose.
Hi Taylor! You made my eyes tear up because I can relate to this video so much! I used to be super active until I had to have bilateral ankle surgeries. I'm still struggling two years later and this process has taken a beating on my body. I gained weight on some parts of it and I lost all muscle and strength on my legs. Plus I can only wear tennis shoes. All of this has made it really hard to get dressed because I cannot use/wear the things I used to but getting creative and accepting that my body is going through a lot has helped me feel better. Focusing on moving forward and on having a strong and healthy body is the way to go. I can see how hard it was for you to tackle this and I'm glad you did and you shared the process with us. Thanks for being so transparent with your followers and I hope that you feel better letting go of the things that just don't work for you at this time. 🤗💕
TAYLOR, YOU ARE MAKING ME CRY!!! Our bodies can change and thats’s okay! You are a stunningly beautiful person, inside and out…never forget that please! Kat
This was my all time favorite video from you. So real. So humble. So much of your raw and awesome personality poured into this one. Thank you for sharing. We love you!!!
Thank you for being so vulnerable! It’s not easy and takes a lot of courage to even talk about it, let alone to the whole internet. Know that this is normal and natural, we never stay the same our whole lives, whether it be our relationships, body, personality, where we live… nothing is permanent! We’re always changing and evolving and that’s okay! You’re always growing into the better version of yourself ❤️ sending you all the love!!
I went through this same thing starting last year and it’s still a battle. Growing out of my clothes physically but not mentally ready to let go. It’s really hard to go through but I’m really proud of you for doing what you did. You’re so courageous and thank you for sharing this journey with us! These are my favorite videos. And nothing feels better then a clean space!
Taylorrrr!! You did such an amazing job!!! You got rid of so much and I loved watching the whole process!! Every time I clean out my closet it literally takes all day too and I have several mental breakdowns.. you are not alone!! ♥️🎉
Taylor you are very relatable and inspiring, thankyou. What I’m trying to do is remind myself that my body is amazing because it is strong and healthy and gets me around to see this beautiful world. I recently lost my best friend to brain cancer and she didn’t, and no longer has, the opportunities that my body gives me. I keep trying to remember this when I feel bad about my body, that is one of the many lessons she has given me. 💚from Australia.
I really loved your videos and looked forward every time you posted them..I've watched you since the start and I've seen the changes of yourself especially since you moved to where you are now ..sometimes if you have a 9 to 5 job things get so hectic and you're on the go all the time the big difference when you stay home and do what you're doing now...I'm a 70 years old old lady but I liked watching young women keeping themselves trim and terrific..and it does feel good 👍
I feel you because i am getting closer to 40, not working at a skateboard teacher anymore, got thyroïd problems (gaining waigh for no reason and being exausted) plus the pandemic. I gain waight and had to change all my closet.
Taylorrrrr I'm so obsessed with you and your style!! Not only am I impressed with your courage and vulnerability, I'm blown away by your stamina!!! The fact that you brought us along for this journey is no small feat! You're showing us what strength is, inside and out!
I always skip the boring part in videos, you are genuinely entertainer, I didn't skip! Love seeing all your clothing archives. Love love love your videos ❤️ 45 mins of closet de cluttered video, so worth it!
I loved this so much! And I can totally relate to how difficult it is to let go of clothes that used to fit and that you used to love wearing and now...don't. So thank you for putting this out there, it's strangely comforting to know that this happens to other people to (just reading the comments here is amazing too!)
Taylor, I must say, you are a beautiful girl and please know all women go through this. I have done this a million times, and yes it’s hard. But we as women naturally change in-to-women when we get older. I admire you for having the strength to be vulnerable to your supporters. I watch you every week because you are FUN, funny, talented and so much fun to watch! Can’t wait for next Sunday! :)
I am 71 and love your videos as they are so relatable. I have gained and lost so much over the years. I tend to love buying clothes but I restrict myself to the stuff that are similar. As a result I have at least 10 pairs of jeans and dozens of tshirt...long sleeve for winter and short for summer. Over the last year I started buying button down shirts and sweatshirts. Ok then came the thrifted purses and now leather coats and jackets. Yes my clothes share 3 closets. I will need to do a clean out before spring and then again next fall. Thank you for the motivation. You are beautiful inside and out.
Wow well done! Extra tip if you need one…change all your hangers to be the same, I have thin velvet non slip hangers and everything looks a little tidier and you can fit more into a space. I did a huge clear out and try to regularly do one. I think lots of us have ‘extra pounds’ so thank you for sharing with us 💗
Getting over the ‘someday goal clothing’ was a huge step for me around body acceptance. Breaking that toxic diet culture shame cycle changed my life around my closet. I am so happy you are here. Also, great job. So much work.
I've just stumbled across your channel and subsequently this video. firstly, i'm definitely subscribing, i love your style! secondly, i've just done the same thing after gaining healthy weight over the past year and it was extremely hard at times! for me, fashion, especially thrifted, is such a passion of mine, but getting dressed every day was daunting because i knew i had so many clothes that didn't fit me anymore. getting rid of them was actually really cathartic and helped me fall in love with my closet all over again. I'm so glad this was a positive experience for you! something i've learnt that i thought i'd share with you - clothes are made to fit your body, you body is not made to fit into clothes!
Taylor I just went through the same thing. I took a week off from work and had to organize my things.I cleaned out half of my closet because the clothes don't fit me anymore...I had some new clothes I have never worn either. Thank you for your honesty...that's just life. We go through changes and it's okay. It is a lot of work but it's all worth it at the end. You did an awesome job! Yes, be more kind to yourself! 💕
And Taylor! Thank you so much for being transparent and vulnerable. I am in my mid 20’s and have seen a bit shift in my body the last few years. In a way it’s a comfort to see someone else experiencing something similar. The last few years have been hard, and I try to remind myself to thank my body for helping me survive. But I also can relate to how difficult it is when favorite pieces no longer fit. So thank you for this video and being an inspiration!
THIS was the very best closet declutter I have EVER seen!!! You are reminding me of something I once read that said "the state of your bedroom is the state of your mind". Our closets are included in that!
Thank you for this video! I have gained weight and had a closet full of clothes and nothing just really made me feel good about myself. I am purging now and styling things that are actually making me feel better. ❤TYSM!
LOVED this video. Really appreciate your honesty- you are not alone. I’m surrounded by 5 garbage bags full of clothes that I don’t or no longer can wear that will be donated.
You look so great! I have gone through this after each kid. After my first baby, my body and lifestyle had changed so drastically that I had to get rid of most of my clothing, but I could only stand to do it gradually! Things were pretty bare bones for a long while after that, but I slowly thrifted a new wardrobe. Unfortunately, while I found some cute things- none of it was very special or flattering. After my second, my body changed more than ever, so I owned clothing in such an insane size range.Ot was all just thrifted basics and in a way I needed that simplicity, but I was missing being stylish in a big way. During the pandemic I finally started to branch out and get some style back in my life by trying out more modern styles and even some classic ones by purchasing items in my current size using secondhand resale sites. Unfortunately, I got very sick and then lost a ton of weight. I have finally regained that weight... and then some. It has been such a rollercoaster. I recently went through ALL of my clothing including bins of work wear from when I worked full time and maternity wear and clothes I might wear if I gain weight or lose weight. It was very emotional, but the remaining items are such a better reflection of my style, size and life now and I am so at peace just accepting where I am now and enjoying this phase. I hope that is true for you too!
It’s the most natural thing in the world to have your body change over the years, facing and accepting it, is scary but ultimately cathartic, I have been the same dress size since I was in my twenties, finally accepted I have gone up a size, over the years, it happens, and there is nothing wrong with it happening 🥰
I love that you were brave and showed your vulnerability. We all have those clothes we dream of wearing but don't because it makes our body uncomfortable. I am glad you show that it is time to declutter and remove pieces that don't make us confidence. It is better to our honor our bodies by wearing things that make us confident and making space for new pieces.
I think you're wonderful and brave. In our world it's not easy to admit we've gained weight. But it's a part of life. We fluctuate. But it's so hard to see it and clothes not fit anymore. Especially when you have such a beautifully curated wardrobe! But you are so beautiful inside and out and you will find many more treasures as you continue to thrift. Thank you for sharing your journey with us!
This is the first video of yours I've ever seen. I kept thinking that you look so good, just healthy, beautiful, and glowing! I've recently struggled with not fitting into my clothes too, but finding newer, cool pieces that do fit and make me feel good has been great. I also realized that even when I was smaller I kept trying to fit into clothes that didn't fit, which just doesn't make sense! Thank you for a realistic and satisfying video.
Girl don't feel bad! I need to purge my closet soon too. I have way too many things that I no longer wear or can't wear anymore. I gained 12 pounds of muscle in the last year and went from a size 2 to a size 6/8 in pants. Lots of vintage Levi's that I am sad to see go but alas It gives me an excuse to buy new things that do fit.
Your beautiful no matter your size, your just falling in love with some things in your closet you forgot you owned. Great video Taylor❤️ I know this was hard but you did a fabulous job❤️❤️❤️
This is the best closet clean out video I've ever found. thank you for being vulnerable. I feel the same way about my body and about my clothes, i love all my clothes and hate parting with them even if they don't fit. your video really made me realize i just have to accept my body has changed and i gotta let the stuff that doesn't fit me go. this was great to watch and it inspired me to clean my closet in a new way.
WOW, love this. I realize it’s an older video, but it was probably suggested because I watch a lot of declutters. The majority speed up the decision making to 5x over music. This is actually helpful. Great job!!
I know that every person interprets their appearance subjectively and, sometimes, nothing anyone says can have an impact, but I think you look amazing 💕
You have helped me so much I’m getting rid off stuff that doesn’t fit me anymore. I’m also putting outfits together so I have room in my closets. I’m amazed how much shoes you have you have beautiful clothes that you decided to keep. Thankyou for trying on dresses you have beautiful vintage dresses thankyou and I hope you continue to show more videos. I’m from Canada B.C.
OMG the dvf dress you're getting rid of, the zebra dress, and the leopard dress were my faves! I relate to your concern about size fluctuation. I had the hardest time letting go of my diesel jeans when I went from a size 4 to 8.
I've just been through the exact same thing, with cleaning out all my pants that just didn't fit me anymore. It was emotionally exhausting and I was left with only 3 pairs. What helped me was reworking the way I thought about it, from a loss to an opportunity - thinking of all the fabulous new pieces I can pick up now that I have the space in my draw.
Thank you so much for being vulnerable and sharing your honest thoughts during this video. I know how hard that must have been for you but you have no idea how much that speaks to your viewers, me included!! Loved this video💌
I really appreciate your heart to heart moment you had. Recently, my body has been changing more than I would care to admit and I have gained a decent amount of weight. It’s honestly been tough but I really needed that reminder that it is okay to gain weight and have a changing body :)
girl!! thank you x a million for this. I have probably 15 pairs of thrifted jeans from the last 3-4 years and almost none of them fit anymore. I dread going through and accepting that they don’t serve me anymore and you’ve given me the motivation to clean out my closet today!
Taylor, thank you for sharing your heart. Please know you are not alone in the fact of being scared to not fit in your clothes again, I too feel this! You are such a brave and beautiful woman and I am so glad I found your channel!
I went up a full size in the last 2 years not so much the pandemic but giving up smoking also I hit 61yrs so I had 6 closets like you full of stuff that no longer fitted, was not my style anymore and stuff that was just sentimental that I never wore. I had a major clear out I still have 6 closets but now they are only half full and the biggest boon is most of my stuff actually goes together now so it’s super easy to mix and match. I did do a big colour purge as well only keeping my favourite colours and that helped. Loved your video 😊
I'm beyond grateful that I ran into your channel. You had me crying in this video. My body change has taken a huge toll on my mental health as well so I really appreciate your vulnerability
LOVED this video! You rarely see this level of honesty online and it’s so refreshing. I recently had to do this too - our bodies will change multiple times in our lifetime and that’s okay. It doesn’t make us any less valid. Thank you so much for sharing. I love your channel and what you stand for so much. Sending love ❤️
Well done! Getting real, getting it sorted and getting it out the door for someone else to love! You get the exhilaration which comes with a reset and refresh. Not to mention falling back in love with your lost loves - hello cute straw and beaded bags!
Most of us gain weight as we age. If I could tell my younger me, "girl, don't be so hard on yourself" I would have been so much more ok with me. You look wonderful and thank you for baring all. You did good and you inspired me to get rid of the clothes I cannot fit anymore.
One tip I learned which works well. When you are switching out for the season, turn all of the hangers backwards. If by the end of the season, the hanger was not turned, it should go. The only exception should be dressy occasion outfits which you obviously wear less but you don't want to rebuy, especially if they look great on you and you have a wedding or event to go to.
This is your breakout moment. I’ve always enjoyed your videos but this one is another level. You stepped into woman status here. HILARIOUS. GENUINE. REAL.
Recently I went through a health journey that required a total overhall of my life. After surgery I went to put my jeans on that I havent worn in several months- nearly a year- and they didn't fit. My shorts from last summer- didn't fit. Peices I've loved forever- didn't fit. I went up two sizes in one year. I was devasted. Yesterday I did a closet overhall. I'm getting rid of everything that doesn't fit and starting over. Thank you for the video. It helps that I'm not alone.
This was therapeutic to watch. Great job on clearing out your closet and getting a positive outlook on where you are in your life and accepting your body.
You go girl!! I'm sure you've inspired alot of us women to take inventory of our own closets and of those one of these days pieces we hang on to for way to long I know you have given me inspiration to tackle that rabbit hole we call a closet....Thank you
Thanks for sharing. You deserve applause for going through all of it at one time. I find I just get too overwhelmed looking at a stuffed closet so have gotten to the point where when I open the closet, it is an easy and happy experience. While I May love something, it has to make my life easy.
Thank you for making this video-it really hits home for me a year and a half after having a baby and the wild and changing ride my body has been on. I appreciate your vulnerability and style! This video will surely touch many people struggling with changing bodies and thrifting.
❤ when you started talking about how hard this clean out was for you I immediately started crying. I know exactly how you feel and have a pile of clothes hidden away that dont fit me anymore but I love still. Thanks for making this video despite it being so hard, I may go through those clothes soon :).
Thank you so much!💗 This was the best closet cleanout I have seen in a while. I am doing the same thing, going through each item, trying them on and if I love it and it fits, I keep it. One thing that I noticed while doing this was that I have many more items than I thought I had. Donated 5 bags of clothes!
Thank you so much for this inspiring video. I have been dealing with body changes as well and you inspired me to do a clean up myself. Admitting is always hard and achieving like you did is amazing. Thanks girl
We women go through many body changes in our lives….after high school, college, marriage, kids, midlife, and menopause. it is hard but I believe we need to find those pieces that make us feel beautiful or at least better about where we are at while we pursue health. Hugs to you you are not alone!
Thank you for sharing your closet declutter and being so thorough in explaining your thoughts and feelings throughout the process!! You have a beautiful wardrobe!!
Just wanted to drop a comment on how relatable this video is from you. I’m currently also going through a huge closet change because of my body weight and have been feeling real shitty about it so it’s nice to see someone else who has a similar struggle. Also side note: I tried to do a closet clean out recently because the rod in our historic home LITERALLY broke off the wall…so I transferred all my clothes onto a portable rack AND IT ALSO BROKE 😂😂😂 my fiancé and I laugh cried for so long…anyway thanks for posting this it’s a great reminder to be kind to yourself!
Oh man... I feel you! The amount of times I have kept clothes in the hope I would one day fit again... Well done for tossing all that extra stuff you don't need. Hopefully you can enjoy your fresh cleaned out closet!!!
Real talk though... You're honestly so beautiful inside and out I know you're feeling self-conscious and vulnerable but you are gorgeous girl keep being you ❤️
Great job 👏 I’ve been through this many times, my weight is fluctuating a lot. it’s hard to let go of things that no longer fit but it also feels good to have only things you actually wear and feel good in!
TAYLOR! Girl, thank you so much for being vulnerable in this video and finally telling me that it’s okay to get rid of those clothes that are my “someday I will fit back into this” items.

Size 2, Size 4, Size 6, Size 8
It's you who we appreciate!!
No matter the size, your style rules!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I feel you girl. 27 and struggling with accepting that my body has just changed and refusing to go up a pants size even if I really should. Thank you for this video.
The metabolism really slows down in late 20s.
Exactly. I'm also 27 and was always slim. I could eat whatever I want. Now I'm struggle since 5 years with ups and downs. Still can't except my body.
Same I’m really going through it right now
This one hit lady! I love all of your content but this one is so relatable to everyone who has undergone some transformation during the pandemic.

Hi Taylor! You made my eyes tear up because I can relate to this video so much! I used to be super active until I had to have bilateral ankle surgeries. I'm still struggling two years later and this process has taken a beating on my body. I gained weight on some parts of it and I lost all muscle and strength on my legs. Plus I can only wear tennis shoes.

“I fall in love with pretty things, and I just have to have them” is literally the story of my life/wardrobe.
TAYLOR, YOU ARE MAKING ME CRY!!! Our bodies can change and thats’s okay! You are a stunningly beautiful person, inside and out…never forget that please! Kat
Ah man ... good job ! If only I could hit the like button 25 times ! A 45 minutes video ... what a treat. Now I want to declutter ...
This was my all time favorite video from you. So real. So humble. So much of your raw and awesome personality poured into this one. Thank you for sharing. We love you!!!
You're so funny and beautiful. Thank you for being vulnerable. I love that you wore the cherub top at the end 💕
Me too! ❤️
Thank you for being so vulnerable! It’s not easy and takes a lot of courage to even talk about it, let alone to the whole internet. Know that this is normal and natural, we never stay the same our whole lives, whether it be our relationships, body, personality, where we live… nothing is permanent! We’re always changing and evolving and that’s okay! You’re always growing into the better version of yourself ❤️ sending you all the love!!
I went through this same thing starting last year and it’s still a battle. Growing out of my clothes physically but not mentally ready to let go.

Taylor you are very relatable and inspiring, thankyou.
What I’m trying to do is remind myself that my body is amazing because it is strong and healthy and gets me around to see this beautiful world.
I recently lost my best friend to brain cancer and she didn’t, and no longer has, the opportunities that my body gives me. I keep trying to remember this when I feel bad about my body, that is one of the many lessons she has given me. 💚from Australia.

I really loved your videos and looked forward every time you posted them..I've watched you since the start and I've seen the changes of yourself especially since you moved to where you are now ..sometimes if you have a 9 to 5 job things get so hectic and you're on the go all the time the big difference when you stay home and do what you're doing now...I'm a 70 years old old lady but I liked watching young women keeping themselves trim and terrific..and it does feel good 👍
I feel you because i am getting closer to 40, not working at a skateboard teacher anymore, got thyroïd problems (gaining waigh for no reason and being exausted) plus the pandemic. I gain waight and had to change all my closet.
Taylorrrrr I'm so obsessed with you and your style!! Not only am I impressed with your courage and vulnerability, I'm blown away by your stamina!!! The fact that you brought us along for this journey is no small feat! You're showing us what strength is, inside and out!
This gave me the power to get rid of jeans that have moved with me five times but haven’t fit in five years!
I always skip the boring part in videos, you are genuinely entertainer, I didn't skip! Love seeing all your clothing archives. Love love love your videos ❤️ 45 mins of closet de cluttered video, so worth it!
I loved this so much! And I can totally relate to how difficult it is to let go of clothes that used to fit and that you used to love wearing and now...don't. So thank you for putting this out there, it's strangely comforting to know that this happens to other people to (just reading the comments here is amazing too!)
Taylor, I must say, you are a beautiful girl and please know all women go through this. I have done this a million times, and yes it’s hard. But we as women naturally change in-to-women when we get older. I admire you for having the strength to be vulnerable to your supporters. I watch you every week because you are FUN, funny, talented and so much fun to watch! Can’t wait for next Sunday! :)
I am 71 and love your videos as they are so relatable. I have gained and lost so much over the years. I tend to love buying clothes but I restrict myself to the stuff that are similar. As a result I have at least 10 pairs of jeans and dozens of tshirt...long sleeve for winter and short for summer. Over the last year I started buying button down shirts and sweatshirts. Ok then came the thrifted purses and now leather coats and jackets. Yes my clothes share 3 closets. I will need to do a clean out before spring and then again next fall. Thank you for the motivation. You are beautiful inside and out.
Omg!! Loving the intro so far and haven't finished and already liked it
Thank you so much 🤗
Wow well done! Extra tip if you need one…change all your hangers to be the same, I have thin velvet non slip hangers and everything looks a little tidier and you can fit more into a space. I did a huge clear out and try to regularly do one. I think lots of us have ‘extra pounds’ so thank you for sharing with us 💗
Getting over the ‘someday goal clothing’ was a huge step for me around body acceptance. Breaking that toxic diet culture shame cycle changed my life around my closet. I am so happy you are here. Also, great job. So much work.
I've just stumbled across your channel and subsequently this video. firstly, i'm definitely subscribing, i love your style! secondly, i've just done the same thing after gaining healthy weight over the past year and it was extremely hard at times! for me, fashion, especially thrifted, is such a passion of mine, but getting dressed every day was daunting because i knew i had so many clothes that didn't fit me anymore. getting rid of them was actually really cathartic and helped me fall in love with my closet all over again. I'm so glad this was a positive experience for you! something i've learnt that i thought i'd share with you - clothes are made to fit your body, you body is not made to fit into clothes!
Taylor I just went through the same thing. I took a week off from work and had to organize my things.I cleaned out half of my closet because the clothes don't fit me anymore...I had some new clothes I have never worn either. Thank you for your honesty...that's just life. We go through changes and it's okay. It is a lot of work but it's all worth it at the end. You did an awesome job! Yes, be more kind to yourself! 💕
And Taylor! Thank you so much for being transparent and vulnerable. I am in my mid 20’s and have seen a bit shift in my body the last few years. In a way it’s a comfort to see someone else experiencing something similar. The last few years have been hard, and I try to remind myself to thank my body for helping me survive. But I also can relate to how difficult it is when favorite pieces no longer fit. So thank you for this video and being an inspiration!
THIS was the very best closet declutter I have EVER seen!!!
You are reminding me of something I once read that said "the state of your bedroom is the state of your mind".
Our closets are included in that!
Thank you for this video! I have gained weight and had a closet full of clothes and nothing just really made me feel good about myself. I am purging now and styling things that are actually making me feel better. ❤TYSM!
LOVED this video. Really appreciate your honesty- you are not alone. I’m surrounded by 5 garbage bags full of clothes that I don’t or no longer can wear that will be donated.
You look so great! I have gone through this after each kid. After my first baby, my body and lifestyle had changed so drastically that I had to get rid of most of my clothing, but I could only stand to do it gradually! Things were pretty bare bones for a long while after that, but I slowly thrifted a new wardrobe. Unfortunately, while I found some cute things- none of it was very special or flattering. After my second, my body changed more than ever, so I owned clothing in such an insane size range.Ot was all just thrifted basics and in a way I needed that simplicity, but I was missing being stylish in a big way. During the pandemic I finally started to branch out and get some style back in my life by trying out more modern styles and even some classic ones by purchasing items in my current size using secondhand resale sites. Unfortunately, I got very sick and then lost a ton of weight. I have finally regained that weight... and then some. It has been such a rollercoaster. I recently went through ALL of my clothing including bins of work wear from when I worked full time and maternity wear and clothes I might wear if I gain weight or lose weight. It was very emotional, but the remaining items are such a better reflection of my style, size and life now and I am so at peace just accepting where I am now and enjoying this phase. I hope that is true for you too!
It’s the most natural thing in the world to have your body change over the years, facing and accepting it, is scary but ultimately cathartic, I have been the same dress size since I was in my twenties, finally accepted I have gone up a size, over the years, it happens, and there is nothing wrong with it happening 🥰
I love that you were brave and showed your vulnerability. We all have those clothes we dream of wearing but don't because it makes our body uncomfortable. I am glad you show that it is time to declutter and remove pieces that don't make us confidence. It is better to our honor our bodies by wearing things that make us confident and making space for new pieces.
Taylor, so many of us are in the same boat. You are correct, IT IS OKAY. Thank you for being so brave, authentic, and so so so BEAUTIFUL 🥰🤩😘 much love
Such a wonderful video! Be kind to yourself is such a take away! We all need to remember that!
I think you're wonderful and brave. In our world it's not easy to admit we've gained weight. But it's a part of life. We fluctuate. But it's so hard to see it and clothes not fit anymore. Especially when you have such a beautifully curated wardrobe! But you are so beautiful inside and out and you will find many more treasures as you continue to thrift. Thank you for sharing your journey with us!
This is the first video of yours I've ever seen. I kept thinking that you look so good, just healthy, beautiful, and glowing! I've recently struggled with not fitting into my clothes too, but finding newer, cool pieces that do fit and make me feel good has been great. I also realized that even when I was smaller I kept trying to fit into clothes that didn't fit, which just doesn't make sense! Thank you for a realistic and satisfying video.
Thank you Taylor for your honesty and vulnerability in this episode. You go girrl!
Girl don't feel bad! I need to purge my closet soon too. I have way too many things that I no longer wear or can't wear anymore. I gained 12 pounds of muscle in the last year and went from a size 2 to a size 6/8 in pants. Lots of vintage Levi's that I am sad to see go but alas It gives me an excuse to buy new things that do fit.
Your beautiful no matter your size, your just falling in love with some things in your closet you forgot you owned. Great video Taylor❤️ I know this was hard but you did a fabulous job❤️❤️❤️
This is the best closet clean out video I've ever found. thank you for being vulnerable. I feel the same way about my body and about my clothes, i love all my clothes and hate parting with them even if they don't fit. your video really made me realize i just have to accept my body has changed and i gotta let the stuff that doesn't fit me go. this was great to watch and it inspired me to clean my closet in a new way.
WOW, love this. I realize it’s an older video, but it was probably suggested because I watch a lot of declutters. The majority speed up the decision making to 5x over music. This is actually helpful. Great job!!
I know that every person interprets their appearance subjectively and, sometimes, nothing anyone says can have an impact, but I think you look amazing 💕
You have helped me so much I’m getting rid off stuff that doesn’t fit me anymore. I’m also putting outfits together so I have room in my closets. I’m amazed how much shoes you have you have beautiful clothes that you decided to keep. Thankyou for trying on dresses you have beautiful vintage dresses thankyou and I hope you continue to show more videos. I’m from Canada B.C.
OMG the dvf dress you're getting rid of, the zebra dress, and the leopard dress were my faves! I relate to your concern about size fluctuation. I had the hardest time letting go of my diesel jeans when I went from a size 4 to 8.
I've just been through the exact same thing, with cleaning out all my pants that just didn't fit me anymore. It was emotionally exhausting and I was left with only 3 pairs. What helped me was reworking the way I thought about it, from a loss to an opportunity - thinking of all the fabulous new pieces I can pick up now that I have the space in my draw.
This video is so special. Thank you for being vulnerable and strong. I definitely need to take care my closet and face my weight gain.
Super video, feels so honest, full of nice little stories about the pieces and the evaluation.
Very inspiring. Good work!
Thank you so much for being vulnerable and sharing your honest thoughts during this video. I know how hard that must have been for you but you have no idea how much that speaks to your viewers, me included!! Loved this video💌
I really appreciate your heart to heart moment you had. Recently, my body has been changing more than I would care to admit and I have gained a decent amount of weight. It’s honestly been tough but I really needed that reminder that it is okay to gain weight and have a changing body :)
girl!! thank you x a million for this. I have probably 15 pairs of thrifted jeans from the last 3-4 years and almost none of them fit anymore. I dread going through and accepting that they don’t serve me anymore and you’ve given me the motivation to clean out my closet today!
2 pairs of jeans 👖 that fit is better than 15 that don't!!!
Loved this. Loved that you showed most/all of the pieces and talked about them. Was great
This is one of my favorite videos of yours. You were so fun and relatable. Thanks for sharing 💗
Taylor, thank you for sharing your heart. Please know you are not alone in the fact of being scared to not fit in your clothes again, I too feel this! You are such a brave and beautiful woman and I am so glad I found your channel!
I went up a full size in the last 2 years not so much the pandemic but giving up smoking also I hit 61yrs so I had 6 closets like you full of stuff that no longer fitted, was not my style anymore and stuff that was just sentimental that I never wore. I had a major clear out I still have 6 closets but now they are only half full and the biggest boon is most of my stuff actually goes together now so it’s super easy to mix and match. I did do a big colour purge as well only keeping my favourite colours and that helped. Loved your video 😊
More power to you
This was honest and real
A big well done
I'm beyond grateful that I ran into your channel. You had me crying in this video. My body change has taken a huge toll on my mental health as well so I really appreciate your vulnerability
LOVED this video! You rarely see this level of honesty online and it’s so refreshing. I recently had to do this too - our bodies will change multiple times in our lifetime and that’s okay. It doesn’t make us any less valid. Thank you so much for sharing. I love your channel and what you stand for so much. Sending love ❤️
Well done! Getting real, getting it sorted and getting it out the door for someone else to love! You get the exhilaration which comes with a reset and refresh. Not to mention falling back in love with your lost loves - hello cute straw and beaded bags!
Most of us gain weight as we age. If I could tell my younger me, "girl, don't be so hard on yourself" I would have been so much more ok with me. You look wonderful and thank you for baring all. You did good and you inspired me to get rid of the clothes I cannot fit anymore.
One tip I learned which works well. When you are switching out for the season, turn all of the hangers backwards. If by the end of the season, the hanger was not turned, it should go. The only exception should be dressy occasion outfits which you obviously wear less but you don't want to rebuy, especially if they look great on you and you have a wedding or event to go to.
THANK YOU TAYLOR❣️ You are awesomely courageous and I admire you👏
This is the most entertaining closet clean out of 2022
This is your breakout moment. I’ve always enjoyed your videos but this one is another level. You stepped into woman status here.
HILARIOUS.
GENUINE.
REAL.
Recently I went through a health journey that required a total overhall of my life. After surgery I went to put my jeans on that I havent worn in several months- nearly a year- and they didn't fit. My shorts from last summer- didn't fit. Peices I've loved forever- didn't fit. I went up two sizes in one year. I was devasted. Yesterday I did a closet overhall. I'm getting rid of everything that doesn't fit and starting over. Thank you for the video. It helps that I'm not alone.
This was therapeutic to watch. Great job on clearing out your closet and getting a positive outlook on where you are in your life and accepting your body.
You go girl!! I'm sure you've inspired alot of us women to take inventory of our own closets and of those one of these days pieces we hang on to for way to long I know you have given me inspiration to tackle that rabbit hole we call a closet....Thank you
Thanks for sharing. You deserve applause for going through all of it at one time. I find I just get too overwhelmed looking at a stuffed closet so have gotten to the point where when I open the closet, it is an easy and happy experience. While I May love something, it has to make my life easy.
Thank you for making this video-it really hits home for me a year and a half after having a baby and the wild and changing ride my body has been on. I appreciate your vulnerability and style! This video will surely touch many people struggling with changing bodies and thrifting.
Thank you so much for this video. It was so relatable. I know this must have taken a lot of courage to be so open and honest. Thank you so much xx
Thank you for being real and vonarable like this, most woman get it girl. I had to get all new jeans recently because I gained a little weight❤
Welcome back again and great huge closet clean out, Taylor!❤️❤️
❤ when you started talking about how hard this clean out was for you I immediately started crying. I know exactly how you feel and have a pile of clothes hidden away that dont fit me anymore but I love still. Thanks for making this video despite it being so hard, I may go through those clothes soon :).
Life is so short and yet we waste so much time on worrying about our waist sizes.
Just starting the video but I already know it’s going to be great! Thanks for your hard work on this one!!
That purple cherub top is to die for! Ugh, you're so lucky to have it in your wardrobe. You did an amazing job decluttering.
Thank you so much!💗 This was the best closet cleanout I have seen in a while. I am doing the same thing, going through each item, trying them on and if I love it and it fits, I keep it. One thing that I noticed while doing this was that I have many more items than I thought I had. Donated 5 bags of clothes!
Thank you so much for this inspiring video. I have been dealing with body changes as well and you inspired me to do a clean up myself. Admitting is always hard and achieving like you did is amazing. Thanks girl
We women go through many body changes in our lives….after high school, college, marriage, kids, midlife, and menopause. it is hard but I believe we need to find those pieces that make us feel beautiful or at least better about where we are at while we pursue health. Hugs to you you are not alone!
Thank you for sharing your closet declutter and being so thorough in explaining your thoughts and feelings throughout the process!! You have a beautiful wardrobe!!
Just wanted to drop a comment on how relatable this video is from you. I’m currently also going through a huge closet change because of my body weight and have been feeling real shitty about it so it’s nice to see someone else who has a similar struggle.
Also side note: I tried to do a closet clean out recently because the rod in our historic home LITERALLY broke off the wall…so I transferred all my clothes onto a portable rack AND IT ALSO BROKE 😂😂😂 my fiancé and I laugh cried for so long…anyway thanks for posting this it’s a great reminder to be kind to yourself!
I had to stop the video to comment , and tell you that you are beautiful and real and I love your style 🥰
Oh man... I feel you! The amount of times I have kept clothes in the hope I would one day fit again... Well done for tossing all that extra stuff you don't need. Hopefully you can enjoy your fresh cleaned out closet!!!
Real talk though... You're honestly so beautiful inside and out I know you're feeling self-conscious and vulnerable but you are gorgeous girl keep being you ❤️
Great job 👏 I’ve been through this many times, my weight is fluctuating a lot. it’s hard to let go of things that no longer fit but it also feels good to have only things you actually wear and feel good in!
I love how long this clean out video was and how real it was too 💖
Haven't seen any of your other videos but would like to say you are delightful!! I actually love your vibes so much
