unused fancy planners should have their own support group due to rampant neglect
Im crying. Mine sing shantys under the bed, they could use a support group.
Can we add in the fugly ones made as corporate gifts? I have a lot of them that I've been trying to use up and cannot buy a fancy one, even though I actually use planners. At least a lot of companies are moving towards more sustainable marketing/branding nowadays.
I'll just use mine as regular notebooks or I'll rewrite the dates of the current year in certain sections if I need it and this does help me use almost all of it 😊
@@AceOfSpades6699 i received a notebook from a company that's reusable, it has plasticy sheets and you write with a fine tip erasable marker on it and everything can be erased with a paper towel and some alcohol. The cover isn't pretty but i leave it open anyways, i use it for work, i write lists daily and cross out things I've done but i don't need that info forever so it's great. Best corporate gifts i ever received :))
Hahhahaha
Because I'm a note taker and love these videos, and I'm sure a lot of you are too:
1. Popular jean styles (that don't flatter you)
2. Instagram cookware
3. Personalized vitamin blends
4. Instagram pop-up experiences
5. Shirts with weird/super trendy sleeves
6. Over-the-top social media foods
7. Very expensive house paint
8. Fancy planners (if you're not an established planner user)
9. $75 candles
10. Pre-packaged healthy snacks (you can achieve nutritional profile cheaper ways)
11. Canned vodka sodas
12. Plastic full-face visor masks
13. "It" bags/purses
14. "Especially formulated" skin and haircare - you know the types.
15. Finicky houseplants (if you're bad at taking care of plants)
16. Expensive workout clothes
17. Uncomfortable high heels
18. Shedding home decor (pillows, rugs, etc.)
19. Any product sold through a viral tweet
20. Non-machine washable rugs in a house with pets
Save your money, friends.
Thank you!

Bless you for this. Just what I was looking for!!
@@designedbyDSB no problem!!
The jeans thing is real. I'm now convinced that jeans shouldn't really go through trends. We should be able to get low, mid-low, mid-, mid-high, or high-rise jeans in different leg cuts whenever and wherever especially online. Also, there is nothing wrong with the color pink for grown-ups. There is something wrong with an expensive pan that gets bad reviews though.
Fact! All jeans all year round every year. We don't have time to be walking around looking ugly in trendy jeans. Thank god high rise skinnies look good on me, but I will die before you'll catch me in any other jean.
Cosign.
Seriously we're just getting old and no longer care about trends.
Wear clothes that are comfortable and make you feel good. I didn't feel good in low-rise jeans at 19 (always had a little belly, used to pull it up), definitely don't need them in my 30's.
I’ve gotten to the mindset where I’ve stopped watching trends because, oh it’s not in fashion anymore? Yeah give it six months. It’ll be back.
The mom jeans no matter how hard i try just never look good on me. I'm thankful when the high rise skinny became a trend, hoping it will always be available.
Agreed
Trend cycles are so short nowadays it’s ridiculous. I’m hoping that they get so short that they just disappear altogether and we enter an era of the height of personal style
Remember what happened after First World War: a huge change in women's clothing...I hope this pandemic will be the end of all ridiculous styles and modes. Let's get our own style!
@@gabrielaartavia2607 you can find it all at thrift stores, lol. Positive vibes from New Hampshire and remember to be kind to each other and yourself during this pandemic and social crisis
@J F start wearing them...people with their own style make me smile...and hats definitely add flair. I work in a college town and there's always a few kids who stand out...in a good way.
I hope so
This whole video is more of a "things I fell for in my 20s that I won't fall for in my 30s" and it is 100% correct.
$75 candles
"They should be illegal, that's my opinion"
I laughed so hard.
Shouldve seen my face when I found out there are many candles that cost around $200 😖
@@priscilamorales6997 there better be gold in those candles because WHY?!!!
yep. Anytime I see those ridiculous candles... I'm just like even if I was rich enough to buy none other than those I wouldn't they are just dumb.
You are literally burning your money when buying those expensive candles.
I think the only way candles would last is if you use a mug warmer after sticking your candle in the freezer
As a 31-year-old, the benefit of wasting money on “trends” in your twenties teaches you what you like and what you look good in in your thirties. Chelsea is speaking from 30s hindsight wisdom
Amen to that! I went through a ton of trial and error in my 20s to get to my far more rational and experienced 30s. I learned a lot about myself in that decade.
"Over my dead pear-shaped body," I actually snorted. Being a pre-teen/teenager when low-rise jeans were in during the 2000s was harrowing.
As someone with a short back and long legs, low rise jeans were amazing for me, because they fit like regular jeans on other people. I’m all for more choices for more body types
@@kimsward4065 money mo mo moo
Lolol
Me too and I wore them till 2010 when I tripped a little goin up the stairs in the subway and everyone behind me saw my thong. Freakin embarrassin!!!
I wore low rise when I was a teenager too but these days my butt is way to big for that. I would be full on spilling out the back. But I think every rise has a purpose so we really should be able to get all rises all the time instead of this stupid trend cycle. I personally only by high rise jeans but my mom has a much shorter torso and prefers mid rise. Someone with less booty and a short torso may really like low rise. Can we just stop with trying to squeeze our bodies into whatever is trending and just have access to different styles for different figures every year!
Try being a new mom. Even worse.
I will only buy high rise jeans. Never buying low riding jeans ever again, those Jr. High days still haunt me.
Omg, having to wear long t shirts just so I could move without showing my upper butt and constantly adjusting them. Never again!
My school had a tucking your shirt policy, and 100% I believe it was due to the low rise jeans
I can’t wear high rise jeans, they can’t handle my ass to waist ratio and I just look like I’m wearing a diaper lmao
I remember begging my mom NOT to buy them for me, but those were the only type available (sort of like how skinny Jeans are now. I have to really hunt for a pair that's not skinny). She felt so bad. BUT it did start the trend of me always having a sweater with me, tied around my waist. That came in handy with "female problems" in my friend group.
@@Rs-rq9fd have you ever tried american apparels curve high waist jeans? asking as a lot of women who share your sentiments swear by them (me included tee hee!)
The ✨BEST✨ TFD videos are Chelsea rants. And this one is 25 minutes of a Chelsea rant. I'M HERE FOR IT 🤩
Me too! Definitely my fave videos!!
Waiting on ads but this comment got me excited
oh my gosh I’m so excited to watch 😈
@@thefinancialdiet please make a video about the retirement crisis among women
I have my grandmother’s crock pot and cast iron pan. They literally lasted her a lifetime. I’m sure they’ll serve me for many years.
Same!!!! I feel that they were better made back then.
@@dani23dani85 they were. One example is toasters. They lasted life times during the depression and WWII times because as a society, Americans (as I have only really looked into it in America because of family history in America) did not truest believe in “disposable” products as what you had in this time period needed to last so you could keep using it. However, as more and more work was given to other countries and companies used more and more materials that were less sturdy and inflation, the value of a dollar dropped, the companies cut more corners, making things more disposable, which in turn made them more money because people needed to buy it more, so many companies made thing cheaper, sold it cheaper, making it more and more disposable, which lead to more buying of the product and more money for the companies. There’s more to than this, with inflation, laws, taxes, etc that were also factors, but I looked most into this little niche because it’s what I found interesting when I was doing a paper for my economics class. And this information is actually all based on memory from that paper (which was written a couple of years ago), so some information is probably not as accurate as it could be and I have no sources to offer, so take that as you will, and take my info with a grain of salt.
I have my gran’s cast iron Dutch oven and skillet, her Revereware (stainless with copper bottoms), and my Dad’s Sunbeam electric stainless electric coffee percolator. I had my original Cuisineart food processor for 20 yrs, but used it almost daily before it died. My KitchenAid stand mixer I bought used and have had it 14 years now, also gets a huge amount of use. They did build stuff back in the day. If something is manufactured in China, I’ll pass.
Yeah, maybe half the stuff in my kitchen is m mom's or grandmas. I used to actively replace anything that broke with vintage cookware made before I was born, but sometimes they end up having some traces of lead in them.
Got a food processor & a microwave that are older than me & probably work better than I do.
Another thing about the pot...sure maybe you do think you'll want a pink pot your whole life, but will your son? Because pots can last many generations if high quality and taken care of.
A fact that changed my life: Lowe's has a one-year return policy on any plant, even if it is fried and dead. If you don't have your receipt, they'll give you store credit. I definitely feel silly bringing back crisps of dead plants, but I do NOT feel silly when they hand me essentially a Lowe's gift card in return.
Thanks a bunch. I've been hit with the growing bug and even bought a macrame shelf and hooked uv lights to "help" my plants
Chelsea: “stop buying expensive planners if you’re not an established journal-er”
Me, sweating and crying
I've bought a planner almost every year for 4-5 years and still NEVER use it consistently 🤦♀️
@@JaydaSimone I was like that and then I "discovered" kawaii cute animal stickers and washi tape. Most days, the only reason I use my planner is so I can play with stickers and decorative tape. But it works! (for me)
@@themoneylibrarian You can also use the washi tape to cover over the dates & presto! Undated, always-current planner.
@@iloveprivacy8167 Ha! Genius!
@@iloveprivacy8167 exactly! When she said “what do I do with that 2019 dated planner” I immediately thought just cover the dates with stickers
THANK YOU for open shelving in kitchens and trendy cookware. Cabinets have doors for a reason. I am 60, and got my wonderful expensive set of cookware, 20 years ago, by asking my parents for it for Christmas. Mom has been gone 5 years now, and I think of her every time I use it.
Aww so sweet! Love this comment
Very sweet! I was gifted a kitchen aid mixer for Christmas & have it engraved with love mummy. I know I will have it forever & feel the same remembering her when that time comes as I have it on display. I spent so long deciding which colour but eventually went with a pastel pink because it suits me. I kept going back & forth with the should I get a basic/ neutral boring one but I am happy with my decision & always will be as I went with my heart over what others would think.
Same! My 30-year-old Paul Revereware is now collectible 🍳
Everytime I see an abundance of cute drinking glasses on open shelving on ig my first subconscious thought is always "damn they be collecting some DUUUST up there" xD
Down with open shelves! I live in a farm town, and cupboard doors are what the good Lord made to keep topsoil off the @&$%# mugs when the windows are open!
I find that everybody realises that skinny jeans don't flatter them, but I realised the exact opposite. I think it really depends on what type of shirts people wear with their jeans. As someone who mainly wears oversized sweaters, only extremely tight pants look good on me lol. Oversized sweater + non-skinny jeans = drowning in clothing.
Me too! I honestly love skinny jeans, but it's because I have a short torso, so all shirts are long on me, so I prefer loose, long shirts instead of tight, fitted shirts because they look weird af on me. But a loose, flowy, long shirt and tight pants look good
@@princess_intell it's my aesthetic year round lol
I love skinny jeans, I’m tiny and skinny, so specially high rise skinny jeans make me look slightly curvy and style my very petite figure 😅
I hope they don’t disappear
I will be buried in my skinny jeans. I’m 5’4, with a short torso and chicken legs so anything not form fitting looks ridiculous and oversized on me.
As someone that is on the curvy side and fairly short, I find that skinny Jeans and mom jeans really accentuate my waits and flayer my figure. Flares/boot cut are cute to but wide legged really minimize the aspects of my body that I actually want to show off.
All for wearing clothes that make you feel confident not trendy. This is why I have been loving everyone discarded bell sleeve shirts, my ambition is to be a bat
Underrated comment and also, same girl same! 🦇
My inner alternative kid loves that look.
Admit it, one of the reasons is just so you say “I’m Batman!” Honestly though, that would be my reason.😅😅😅
For #12: As a healthcare provider, the clear face shields should be used WITH a mask. They are additional eye protection especially when your patient/client can't wear a mask for a prodecure. The fitted clear masks are for deaf/hard of hearing folks that read lips.
But wouldn’t they only work for lip readers if EVERYONE else wears them?
Exactly! I don’t know of anyone who considers these trendy.
Thank you!
@@katethemathnerd Yes wich is something deaf/hoh people have been talking about for a while during the pandemic. There has been a real struggle for them that isn't being addressed
Thank you I was here to say this, we also do this in food service when we have to approach a table shield and mask. They are not a waste if used in the correct settings.
Here's mine: *fancy lunchboxes* . Now that we're going back to work, those damn CUTE lunchbox and bento companies are TEMPTING MY SOUL. They know I can't resist a poppy flower lunchbox with color coded lids, dressing containers and cutlery. THEY KNOW I'M WEAK.
I think it's a great investment if it inspires and excites you to be making lunches to bring into the office!!
@@Fgurs Where I live there's usually no kitchen or canteen at workplaces, so most people cook their own food at home anyways and bring it to work. The 'eating out' lifestyle is very very uncommon in my country, but sure! If a cute lunchbox inspires you to bring homemade food to work, go for it ❤️ I'm just weak and will probably buy one anyways because THEY'RE SO CUTE
Yass!!! So much better than getting the pretty food at restaurants! Do it girl!
Buying a good, zrurdy bento box that comes with cutlery can be a life saver especially if you are used to eating leftovers or making lunch from scratch. Nut do your research

Hey, I love pink. I did before millennial pink and I will after. However, I'll be damned if I spend $145 on a pan that isn't oven safe.
It’s not oven safe?!?!?! 🤯 Will never buy it now, thank you!!!
Yep, the “wear jeans you like and not what others say are trendy” versus “ew pink why, it’ll be out of trend” thing kind of made me laugh. But I agree re getting quality cookware…regardless of color choice. ;)
YES and can’t be used on high flames!
@@taylorgayhart9497 they've come out with a pot that's over safe. I got the pan last year and don't regret it. I use it daily.

As an interior designer, I can tell, all that she's says about home decor/accessories/gadgets IT'S TRUE. Your home has to be a functional and then good look. At the end of the day, all those "fancy stuff" just elevate your budget and make your daily harder.
Not only did this video reaffirm my convictions against having a personal Instagram account due to the advertising, but Chelsea's level of snark throughout this video is giving me LIFE.
Yes, Sophia! I signed off Facebook years ago because it was too much of a time suck. Haven’t joined Insta, Snapchat, TikTok, etc., and I’m not going to. Unless you’re a celebrity, I think they take more from your life than they give.
Glad someone thinks it's cute.
Exactly 😄
“they’ve already told you everything you need to know about themselves. they’re dumb” chelsea is getting more and more fierce and i am here for it
Glossier is for people with perfect skin who don't have any skincare concerns, so their skincare is just like nice smelling soaps and creams without anything that stands out in it , and their makeup is so subtle and light that you can barely see it.
Yes and you can recreate the "natural" makeup looks with the ones you already have. Just don't put a lot of product. That's it.
Agree on the makeup but disagree on the skincare, it’s pretty good.
I have pretty not great skin and I use glossier because its the only “light” makeup brand. I don’t like being caked. Their skincare is pretty gentle too. I don’t need to hide my acne scars or dark circles, just a little blush and a tint. Its skin. It protects the rest of your innards. Let it rest. People are too obsessed with it.
@@devajaniborah9122 exactly it's light, and imo you can't recreate that look and feel with normal makeup.
@@rosaliamiranda4808 I know, right?! The skin tint is pretty much just a very thin liquid foundation with alcohol added so that it evaporates. Not the greatest thing for your skin. You can add a drop of foundation to a moisturizer and get the same coverage/effect, with the benefit of something good for your skin. Their concealer is great though. It actually conceals and melts into the skin so that I don't need a foundation. But there are a million cream concealers out there that will do the same. Some cost more and some are cheaper.
I initially fell for the “girl boss pink pan” but because the waiting list was so long I cancelled the order and got my money back. I bought a ninja foodi pan for way cheaper and it’s much better quality. Great decision 😅
the our place always pan?? because i fell for that, and it was NOT worth the money!! coating gone in less than a year and replaced!
@@lowkeyrising yes ugh. Get the ninja foodi. It wipes clean with the soft side of a sponge or soft rag. Had it over a year and it is still working wonders for me! I believe it was like $90 off of Amazon.
The upside of trends is there's usually more than one brand competing so sometimes you can find something similar but less expensive and sometimes even better quality than whatever Insta is selling you.
With glossier I think they have their market, they are not a brand of make up you use to glam yourself up but to just look put together. To me their products are very appealing because I'm the kind of person who doesn't like wearing heavy makeup or any makeup at all but I'm still interested in my appearance and would like to look better than I usually do with just a bareface you know, but still look natural and not feel cakey 😂
When you showed that photo of you in the jeans, I realized, that I've always seen you sit down. It felt so weird to see you standing up haha
Same, I was like who is that??
what were those jeans tho? We need to know?
Right?! And looking great!
The level of spice today. I only thought I was ready. She's coming for you usualess trends that have been made up to separate us from our money
@The financial Diet eff off, fake acct. Reported again byeeeeeee
The burns that Chelsea makes so inconspicuously. " We've gotten way more into our plants, and that's understandable we have very few other friends these days..." I CANT💀
I don't necessarily go for very trendy things, but if I do happen to really like something that happens to be trendy I'm going wear/use it more than a year no matter how short the trend lasted. Part of not caring about trends also includes not caring if you're a year or 2 behind in updating.
I'm the same way. If I like a fashion item, I know from experience that I would like it no matter what year it came out. Updating isn't much of a thing for me anymore, but I think I stopped caring much about it soon after high school. It's just not me.
Same here. Not often but every once in a while something trendy will catch my eye and I'll go for it. If I like it I keep it forever and don't give a shit if it's "out of style" or "so last season". I'm here for a good time, not a long time.
"Show me someone with actual problems and let's see what Glossier does with them!" Hahahahaha I'm sooo with you on that one!
That amount of times I've seen skincare companies using a 20-something year old model to advertise their new miracle anti-aging cream 🙄
The prior owners of our house painted one of the rooms in Farrow & Ball Chappell Green. We had the same idea - color match it. Benjamin Moore color matched it to perfection. However, it just didn’t have the same richness and color depth. At night it looked muddy. So we splurged on the Farrow and Ball and repainted the room. Although the color is the same it looks soooo much better. We color matched another room, which was in a light blue color and that worked out well for us. I would say if you’re painting your walls a light/neutral color you really don’t need to splurge. However, if you’re painting your walls a deep/unique color it won’t look the same.
Karolina Zebrowska (sp?) just did a great video on the fleeting nature of style and beauty standards, and how following trends is just going to lead to lost time and sanity. Interesting stuff!
All hail Meme Mom
Luv herrrr! 💓
I am on the crazy sleeve train! But I’d also describe my style as “history bounding”, I basically wear whatever I like from the 13th century through WWI. And having shops that are selling late Victorian style blouses with these big puffy sleeves just means that I can buy them for once, and not have to make them.
It’s like for those who wear a lot of vintage style, and fit and flare dresses come back into fashion, so you stick up while you can, when it’s all very easily available, to get you through the lean times. Only because late Victorian blouses don’t come around anywhere near as often (the last time they were this ubiquitous was the 70s), you really gotta jump on that if that’s what you’re into! It’s like the jeans thing- buy what you like when you can. I happen to like historical clothing. If I could also find decent quality walking skirts… actually, I’d probably still sew them myself, because they’re actually really easy to make.
I think the advice to jot follow trends just for the sake of being trendy is good advice. That being said, my fashion is already at least 100 years out of date, so I don’t really care much about it anymore. But if there’s a nice ankle length prairie dress, a nice waistcoat, or a poofy sleeved shirtwaist, you can bet I’m gonna buy it if I can afford it. I’m still really sad that the only brand selling those cream sweaters with the massive leg o mutton sleeves to the elbow, then tight to the wrist, is far too expensive for me to buy. Which mean I’m going to have to figure out how to sew one myself, because I really want one. So don’t buy stuff that’s trendy just because, but if it’s something you already like, then it’s a great idea. Because sewing your own is usually not that much cheaper.
Even if you don't have a pet, get washable rugs. We're gross too, friends. We shed skin cells And have oily or dandruffy hair and sweat on stuff too. At some point they get nasty, so it's just nicer to ba able to wash them, like bed linen.
Pru-Pruh, all rugs are washable, meaning they can be cleaned with water and a mild detergent. (Just not in the washing machine). But if you really want to keep your house clean don’t wear shoes in the house.
"What the hell is this? I mean, what the hell is this?" Chelsea, you are a treasure.
I've bought all of my kitchen supplies, including pots and pans, at TJ Maxx, Marshall's & Home Goods for years. The prices are great and they hold up so well! My current favorite is my 3qt mini stock pot that has the strainer built right into the top. I use it constantly!
I have my grandmother’s iron skillets🥰and still using my stainless steal pots from our wedding 30+ years!
“...Over my dead pear-shaped body!” Yesss! 🙋🏻♀️ 🍐
When you said "fancy paint" I thought you were coming for my prized for my sherwin williams paint... Apparently I was unaware of the existence of fancier paint 😂
Same! I've gone to Sherwin Williams like 5 times in the last year to buy paint for different rooms in my house. I had no clue they were just normal priced and that people were buying high end paint lol
@The financial Diet can you stop? What gratification do you get out of (very poorly) posing as TFD? Reported
#16 - For workout clothes, I have two baskets - one is for stuff in good condition (usually wear this for studio classes); one is for stuff in poor condition (usually wear this for bouldering as I will often scrape or rip stuff on the wall). A lot of what I wear (except leggings) is from charity shops - have picked up a few good pieces including Lululemon.
Laughing so hard!! Glossier drives me crazy, the models always look like they are soaking wet. Thank you so much for all the wonderful work you do. You have really helped me get my finances back on track after some silly spending decisions.
As a minimalist, I agree with all of these. I’ve saved so much from not making impulse purchases like these! 👍🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is what I needed to talk me out of buying the “always pan”. 😂
Haha omg I was so tempted to buy this pan as well xD
Do not buy it, I was so upset when I asked for it for my birthday and it lasted not even one month. The pan I bought from target to replace it for $30 is going strong 6 months later
@@ingridm4910 oh my! What happened? Did it stop being non stick? For some reason all reviews I see are great, but again, almost if not all are sponsored 🤷🏻♀️😑
Yea I almost bought one too but so many people said they didn't last at all. Surprisingly low quality product. Stay away!!
@@Jess_Bishop the pan cracked from the bottom and the ceramic coating literally caught fire as I was using it. I’m very suspicious of all the positive reviews because it’s clearly a very cheaply made pan. The non stick function is great, but whatever they coat it with to make it pretty is not high quality. Chelsea is right, get yourself a nice pan from a store that the restaurants use.
“I actually set myself on fire accidentally during our New Year’s Eve fondue party” is the most succinctly perfect story ever told.
Next time could we get an hour long version? Chelsea rants are FANTASTIC and I cannot get enough of the shade!!
“Girl boss pink.” I died. 😂😂😂 Will not be buying the always paaaahn.
Lmaoo you got the way she says it down! Pahhhn. I love it lolol
I got the always pan. Not in pink. Let me tell you. It’s good looking, but not worth the price.
Lol I listen to the ad every time because I love her voice it's so soothing
Her annunciation is brutal. WHY. WHY name your product SO CLOSE to a feminine hygiene product (Always Pad).
😂😂😂😂 paaaaaaahn!!!!
Can we get more Chelsea Rants, please. We, (yes, I speak for most) love them!
And when she cracks herself up it too cute lol
I absolutely love when Chelsea gets all sassy and has fun critiquing "trends"!! I've been laughing the whole video...while learning of course. You're so right in all of this! And the funny thing is sometimes we don't even realize we actually DO NOT need any of that crap. Thank you Chelsea
I think Chelsea has the most contagious laugh! And the fact that she constantly cracks herself is so hilarious to me too 😂
This is exactly the things I've been learning since entering my 30s. My own version of this list: no. 1 & 3 are together under trendy clothes that only look good on tiny social media pre-teens.
Also, as far as possible, I try to only buy clothes that are machine washable and anti-wrinkle. This girl ain't got time for the dry cleaners or an iron.
I dump all my laundry into the washing machine and wash it on cold. I take out a couple of items and hang them up, then put the rest in the drier. If anything gets ruined then I shouldn't have bought it in the first place.
I’m obsessed with pink, but I wouldn’t waste my time and money on something that has one job that it can’t do.
Omg finally someone else hates glossier!! Not only are they unrealistic for most real people but if i wanted a hint of color on my lips I'd use a high pigment lipstick dab it and add lip balm or gloss. That's so much more affordable and gives you more control on color versus buying some overpriced deluted makeup child makeup. Glossier honestly reminds me of those free samples you'd get in tween magazines but with an insane price tag.
Thanks so much Chelsea! This is a great detailed and organized video, and I must agree with all your points. Since I started my minimalist journey years ago, I have learned of great ways -- without spending money -- how to care for leather = shoes, boots, jacket, purse, etc.; Plants = compost, seeds, water, etc.; cleaning supplies = homemade cleaning mix. If you or anyone makes their own research - you can make some or all even hand lotion, or face mask at home (I have done it and I'm acne-free). If you are willing to do research and make it yourself, you can save up so much money by taking care of your clothing, home, and your health and pets if you have pets. 🌼
Ok I realize I’ve been accidentally making white claws in bulk for myself by buying a large bottle of flavored Bacardi (v sweet) and adding a shot to a la croix- it is honestly hack of the year
I don't care if things are "of the moment" or if something is "so 2017" If I like, I wear/use it. Don't waste time worrying about what other people think.
Yeah trying to be trendy or timeless is such a wild concept to me. I'm just going to wear what looks and feels good. I'm also not going to worry if my tastes change over time.
I'm old. 2017 feels like yesterday anyway 😆
Yea, there's no such thing as timeless in fashion. Even cuts of t shirts and blazers change. If I like something trendy, I will buy it and use it till its worn out even after it's trendy. I don't care what other people think because I bought it because I like it and it flatters me, not because it was trendy.
Yeah...it is very freeing to finally get to the mindset where I'm dressing for me. I still have some flared sleeve tops that I will continue to wear because they fit really well and I actually prefer how that sleeve feels vs a cuffed sleeve. Too bad if someone else thinks I'm five years out of style.
Same. "Girl boss" pink makes me happy and I don't care if anyone else likes it.
Girl, I bought some Old Navy workout gear a few years back on clearance at an outlet. It's some of the best and most supportive workout gear I have!
Instagram cookware ?
75 $ candles ?
personalized vitamins blends ?
instagram pop-ups ?
canned vodka soda ?
Holy smoke, I didn't even know these things existed !!!
That's a blessing lol
My friends and I are getting these ads and they are falling from them. I'm trying to discourage them but they just get upset. Then... suprise suprise... the products are bad but I have to hold back "i told you so". I feel like trying to prevent scams is hurting my friendships.
I've finally come to a point where I'll let my low wage friends waste thousands of dollars without me saying anything or trying to protect them. But I'm loosing respect for them ...
@@amdl270 omg I'm so sorry to read that. I totally understand what you mean, marketing is a powerful tool.
Everyone is making they own choice and you are obvisouly doing the best you can do : talking with your friends and protecting yourself against these scams. I hope you'll live a wonderful (finencial) life ;-)
What ad-blocker do you use? You could not write a better ad for them than your comment. 👍
@@Draggonny oh, I didn't know I had so much power 😂😂😂
How dare you judge my desire to cook my grandkids breakfast in pink cookware. 😂 ngl, I've never felt so personally attacked by Chelsea.
Maybe one day that pan will have the same nostalgia value as brown 1970s tea sets and 1950s ceramic mixing bowls have for me now. 🙂 Things that remind you of family always have a special place in your heart.
Lol I def know people who are going to cook for their grandkids in a pink pan. And, that's totally endearing! Some of this stuff is like... you need to leave room for individuality in spending. An all pink kitchen would bring some people intense joy & should be pursued.
@@katebader3103 agreed!
@@Draggonny yeah, for sure!
“smuggling bags of fruit out in their jeans” 😂😂😂 I feel you girls those jeans do nothing for me either ❤️
But the deep pockets😍😂
They look good on really skinny people and people with longer torsos.
I used to like how they looked with a wide belt looking at them in 90's fashion, might buy one eventually when I work my way up to transitioning out of yoga pants.
They work for me, but I have a straight shape, and when I gain weight it goes other places. Very much an individual thing.
I ended up getting most of my kitchen stuff secondhand! Plus a vintage Revere Ware set that I got as a house warming gift! The old stuff is good and will last forever while also not breaking the bank! Be willing to check out Goodwill, Thrift Stores, and Antique Malls to find good quality and sometimes really CUTE kitchen stuff!!
Hi Chelsea, I laughed my heart out when you mentioned the bell sleeves back in 2017, same year went to a conference and during lunch the hotel has a buffet service and I remember vividly coz I was surprised when I realized a gentleman was holding my sleeve like it's some train while I'm scooping my lunch.. I was embarrassed but now it's too funny .. 😂🤣
M'lady
This immediately reminded me of the time my friend and I went to this popular restaurant in my area. They are known for their smoking alcoholic drinks (dry ice). I ordered a drink which sounded good (and it was!) but it was cheaper and did not have dry ice. My friend really wanted the fancy drink. Everything was good; the drink foamed when poured and it was a very instagrammable moment. However, when my friend took his sip, a few moments later he made a face. It turns out the dry ice had a bad after taste (we confirmed with the waiter). Now my friend was stuck with a $36 drink that he didn't like.
Reading the price did hurt a lot, considering you could get a nice bottle of wine for that price
Yikes! I know my view is somewhat skewed by living somewhere where cocktails are reasonably priced, but there are very few drinks I would pay $30+ for. It better be a pretty nice whiskey or something if I'm shelling out that much. There is a local bar near me that has some dry ice drinks, but they're more like in the $5-10 range.
I said "36? Not bad." But I'm a foodie and if I ever spend frivolously, it's when dining only. All other scams don't work on me, but I'm willing to try something weird once lol.
List
1) jeans that are trendy but don't flatter your body shape(ergo you probably won't wear it for long)
2) Instagramable cookwear.
3) personalized vitamins
4) Instagram pop ups
5) weird sleeve shirts. (Totes impractical. Our Chelsea was on 🔥!)
6) Social media foods/ foods that look Instagramable but are impractical when you try to eat them. (That burger gave me anxiety.)
7) expensive paint. ( Why are you buying farrow and ball 😭)
8) Fancy planner. ( Paper is paper)
9) 75$ candle. (You are a fool of you buy one.)
10) prepackaged healthy snacks/ fancy snacks.
11) canned vodka soda. ( Wtf! Who even pays for this)
12) Plastic masks. ( Bit** if you do this just disappear from society )
13) It bags.
14) personalized/ formulated skincare.
15) finniky house plants. ( You'll just kill 'em
16) expensive workout clothes.
17) uncomfortable heels. Looking at you louboutons
18) decors that shed
19) viral marketed items
20) washable rug
I agree with all of them except the weird sleeves and fancy snacks. Being pear shape, like I also am, the weird sleeves help balance our figures by adding details and often volume to your arms (though the bell sleeves that get tight at the wrist are definitely way more practical than typical bell sleeves). And cold shoulder sleeves are great for anyone who runs warm or if you're self conscious about your upper under arms (bingo wings lol).
To add # 20 is non-machine washable rugs.... Get the washable kind.
Yess my favorite kind of Chelsea video!! I swear if I see one more ad for those freaking pans... Never going to happen. We have stainless steel and cast iron. They last forever.
I do have to say, I love glossier. I actually just made content talking about dealing with acne and how their light coverage allowed me to accept my skin as I worked with a derm to heal it because I wasn't putting on a full mask of makeup that made me feel terrible when I took it off. The sheer tint glossier provides allowed my standards to adjust so I felt more comfortable wearing no makeup. I totally understand your point, like seeing "anti-aging" products used on a 30 year old model. However, they don't claim their makeup offers a huge transformation. It's to celebrate natural beauty. They use young, attractive models like everyone else, but they do a lot better in diversity. Just wanted to share because I feel that their beauty philosophy really helped me accept my skin.
I LOVE videos where Chelsea complains the whole time lol. It oldly leaves me with a sense of higher self worth
Hahaha they're great!
Saaaaame! Plus I finally have someone who agrees with me about scammy companies or concepts.
Most of my co-workers and friends fall for companies like glossier because of their marketing and when I gently point out the flaws or make a joke they get sooooo defensive. Even if they agree on one or two, they rarely agree on more.
I mean at the end of the day to each their own but it feels good that Chelsea's is pointing out the exact same money grabs, flaws, and marketing techniques I've been seeing.
Yeeeesss! 😄
Yes to the jeans! Honestly, I'm all for the straight leg jeans coming back because I've been wearing them for years when they haven't been "cool" since I hate skinny jeans haha.
3:54: "over my dead, pear-shaped body are low-rise jeans back!" - Chelsea, you are so awesome! Thank you so, so much for both the much-needed wisdom and the much-needed belly laugh!
Chelsea going on a roasting rampage about all the things she hates is so soothing to my soul
"You do not need to be welcoming things into your home that are just an excuse for constant vacuuming."
Well, that's also because I have my own hair for that already.
I should be bald with all my hair I have to cut out of my vacuum
Haven’t had a haircut cuz pandemic and it’s down the the small of my back and my poor tiny vacuum is like dude I can’t do this lol
“These vitamins look like the pan” was great lol
Patiently waiting for Chelsea's separate channel devoted to rinsing past fashion trends. Low Rise Jeans Over My Dead Body is forever a mood
For plant lovers, honestly sprouting an avocado from a seed is the most satisfying thing I’ve done and it cost me no additional money after I bought avocados (a pot yes but I didn’t have pots laying around) it’s easy to do and you just need to water it twice a week
Marshall’s for workout clothes. Very good quality stuff for excellent prices. Home Goods for kitchen wares. Keep quantities down to what you actually need. You don’t need twenty of everything, it just creates clutter.
Amen to only buying good jeans!! So glad boot-cut / slightly flared jeans are back - stocking up to make it through the skinny jeans/mom jeans fads!
I found my favourite jeans on sale last week - brought 2 pairs... I live in them..... paid the same for them as I'd normally paid for one.... I've found they go on sale once a year - always buy then....
I love this video so much! Felt like I was talking to a girlfriend who is talking me out of buying unnecessary shit💕
#8 fully agree, I am a better journaler because I started with the spiral notebook and figured out what I needed for myself. When I moved up to fancy Leuchtturm I felt confident and I easily keep up with my journal.
We're here so early no one has made a convenient list in the comments
Would be appreciated.
Hannah R. made one ⬆️ an hour after your comment! 😄
On the paint issue, I’ll say that the pricier version from Sherwin Williams is worth it over the cheap. I bought the “cheap” line for some colors and the more expensive for others and the difference in coverage (which dictates how much paint you have to use) was noticeable. Also, Trader Joe’s has the best candles.
Yea I never thought I’d buy lululemon, my brother got me my first pair years ago, I still wear and love them. They are the ONLY workout pants that stay up through my workouts.
LOL...the commentary in this video was giving me life! Great list....I did purchase 2 pink skillets recently and I absolutely love them. It wasn't something I saw on tiktok though. I just love pink...even at my old age.
Literally just threw away a 5 year sentence a day journal that I filled out for 12 days in 2016.
A year in sweatpants/yoga pants..that sounds like heaven. - Love from MS where few places actually shut down and work from home was refused by most employers.
Commiseration from Florida 😩
Positive vibes from New Hampshire and remember to be kind to each other and yourself during this pandemic and social crisis
I feel this.
Adding to the sleeve discussion - this past year I bought multiple trendy tops/dresses with the skimpy tied up straps. Very cute for an Instagram but the LEAST practical thing to wear. Impossible to keep up on your shoulders and the excess string from the ties just fly around everywhere! Regretting those REAL BAD!
The Hong Kong candle from Diptyque is amazing and not duplicated anywhere. Worth every one of the $75.🥰
I will die on this lululemon hill 😂😂😂😂 they really are just the best that I’ve found for my workouts. They’ve held up in the weekly wash session beautifully for me. But I never dry them.
However the rest of this video 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I hear that the company is kind of sketchy with workers and materials so may be worth checking out
I have a buddha belly. I love mom jeans because it's like a "eff you" to body standards. I feel good not hiding my body the way that it has always been and will always be.
This makes me so happy and inspired! You go!!!
I love mom jeans because they are the only ones small enough in the waist but with enough room for my thunder thighs and butt. The only type of jean I don't have to take to the tailor to get the waist taken in.
Chelsea’s zipper cover is stretched- go up a size!
I, too, will only wear mom jeans. Give me an elastic waistband and stretchy material any day.
Your so real and witty, I love it! I have found a peer that I can aspire to be as successful, happy and healthy as! Thank you for being so authentic and insightful in your videos! Also the edits and structure was 🙌
As a clinical DieteticTechnician, I really appreciate you PSA about the vitamins. You were completely right. Thank you for sharing correct information
18:07 Actually those face shields (with a face mask) are required when going outside here in the Philippines.
Again, not as an alternative to face masks, but to reduce exposure to the eyes. (I don't necessarily agree with that but it is very important when with a patient)
In Peru they are also mandatory to go some places
many healthcare people wear it as well.
The one pictured didn't cover the eyes - it was lower-half-of-face only (& I've seen one in the wild that covered even less, being wide open at the sides).
Yes, a full-face shield can nicely supplement a mask, but there are definitely some out there that exist with no higher purpose than malicious compliance.
Thanks for pointing this out.
You kinda offended some people there, Chelsea. I love you and TFD, but that one was kinda below the belt.
It's not like some people have options in wearing those face shields. You'll get kicked out of a store or a public transpo if you don't wear one.
Yeah, I love this channel and Chelsea for all she and the team do. I understand that she may be referring to people who wear the face shields INSTEAD of a face mask (I agree with her there) but still, as a supplement they help. (even if they seem stupid to walk around wearing, sometimes).
My country has just reached the 1 million mark in number of cases so I definitely wear both a mask and a face shield when interacting with patients.
Ha! Finally heard someone say outloud how I feel about Glossier and all the extremely overpriced makeup that is only for people who look great WITHOUT MAKEUP!
Open shelving sounds like such a lifesaver for people like me with ADHD organizational struggles though and I'm jealous of being able to see more of what I'm organizing...
Chelsea was on a roll there! And basically all she said was: be a grown-up, think before you spend your money and be real with yourself.
As a mom I'll tell anyone that mom jeans are essential. Gotta stuff that postpartum belly AWAY lol
RIP my little tummy I always complained about before. 2022 will be my year of mum jeans 🤣 Can't complain for the exchange of a sweet little bebe though ❤️
Hey mommas be gentle with your womanly softness...you grew a human in there. Positive vibes from New Hampshire and remember to be kind to each other and yourself during this pandemic and social crisis
Im not a mom and have been wearing mom jeans my whole life. This trend has been absolute heaven for me.
I am into low rise but really midrise is where it's at. High rise feels like it digs into my stomach. Also i maintain never buy jeans new. Second hand stores are full of high quality jeans barely worn dirt cheap
I thought I was the only one who doesn't mind hip huggers. Those of us without an hourglass shape are denied entry to high rise jeans.
Not where i live, the jeans in thrift stores are my 7th grade nightmare coming back to haunt me 😂
I have mid rise skinny jeans that I LOVE. They have stretch and a nice thick stretchy band around my waist that conforms perfectly to my body, no gaps. I wear what I love and feel good in. I have 4 pairs of said jeans in different washes and can literally wear any top/sweater with any of them, fancy, casual, whatever I am going for. Best money I ever spent and still going strong after 2+ years!
Thank you for the “especially formulated” reminder. My eyes are wandering and I keep having to slap my hands away. I can’t be strong forever without a reminder!
Bell sleeves have been around forever and will stay bc it's a classic. Wear them in the spring or summer so you won't have to worry about wearing a jacket on top of them if you get cold. Or bring a scarf.
Otherwise, everything is spot on. Love all your videos!
Omg the mom jeans are my NIGHTMARE I could NEVER wear them and be confident in my body. Totally agree with you, clothing should be what makes us feel comfortable and confident, not what the latest trend is.
