Strong agree about having the same decorations year after year. I remember being so excited as a kid to pull out the decoration box from the attic and see everything. I’ve been slowly developing my own collection, buying sturdy looking decorations from antique malls and such, building onto the base of my parents and grandparents decorations that are split between my siblings :)
Most of our holiday decorations are things from my husband's family when he was a kid. I love his little splotchy painted ornaments and stuff with his (no longer with us) mom's cutie-patootie little notes and messages written on them.
Yes!!! My family and I haven't bought any Christmas decorations since moving in 2018- most of them are from our first house move in 2004. I remember them from each Christmas and that's what makes them special! Though every year I spend hours re-stringing baubles 😂
Same!!! Some of it I’m making and others I’m purchasing as ornaments from parks or places I go to. Wish you best of luck for your decor dev!
I'm excited to inherit them!
The woman who started the gender reveal trend actually admitted to disliking how bad gender reveals have become 💙😢
The sad thing is, the original woman who started it, didn’t even do it to celebrate the gender of the baby. She kept having miscarriages, so she originally did it to celebrate having a pregnancy long enough to even find out the gender of the baby.
Why are gender reveals still a thing.. when later they say that genders are chosen by the child themselves and can be changed? XD This world has gone nuts XD
@@Nilfirithi question why the sex of a child even matters to their parents or family. shouldn't everybody be happy with a healthy baby of either sex?
I think it’s just something fun to celebrate and be excited about during pregnancy
@@amandak.4246 I totally agree tbh
Anti consumerism is one of the best things I've learned from your channel
Same
How I solve the Halloween issue. Be goth. BAM. my room in constantly Halloween ready and filled with vintage and thrifted finds
My skeledog is out year round, when I remember to I'll put a seasonal accessory on it, but given year round it has the glow ball my (live) dogs used when they were puppies it's kinda always spooky season
This! During this time of year I'm like: Finally! Some home decor I can enjoy! 😂🦇🕸
Or a witch
this lolol
YESSS!!! Am a witch, and Halloween is both my favorite season as it’s considered the new years, but also- SPOOKY! And the best decor comes out!!
Can't we all just collectively ban Shein?
Edit: oh and also Temu with all the additional malware and gambling ofc
and aliexpress
Yes! SheOut!
And Primark and Temu
it's the massive shein hauls trying to find a "costume" that fits properly for ONE night before they fly across the world, for me 😫😫. literally the paper towel of clothing
Oh, GROSS
I'm a cosplay nerd so I usually just wear a costume I already made, that isn't too annoying to wear all night. 🤣
Anti-haul buying a hunch of stuff for new crafts/hobbies constantly. It's become a point lf pride to "hoard" craft supplies you're never going to use, or buying a bunch of new stuff, learning to do something, then quitting it immediately afterwards.
I'm currently making a longtime dream cosplay of.mine purposefully to use up fabric and findings I already have!
I've also donated tons of great supplies to a nearby secondhand craft supply shop! 🥰
I grew up in the town next door to the town that had the Frye boot factory. We all had them in the 60's and 70's. They last forever! There were few styles but you could identify them easily.
Love my Frye boots! They last forever if you take good care of them. Not a trend in my world 😊
Yesterday I went to Marshall’s (TJ Max in USA I think?)…I just looked. Well I actually needed two things, however I only picked up what I needed. It was really nice to just look, appreciate the fall decor, mugs, kitchenware, clothes, etc. without bringing it into my home.
I'll buy something if I still want it two weeks later.
This is so nerdy, but in the US we have Marshall's, TJ Maxx and Home Goods, all owned by TJX. I worked at Marshall's so this useless knowledge is still in my head. LOL
I grew up in the 90’s, and it was the same box of decor every Christmas ( fall didn’t have decor other than the leaves outside 😂) But, I LOVED it 😍
Right?? My mom would decorate for Halloween when we got older because my brother and I were really into the grunge scene of the 90s. But no “fall” decor or outfits or anything. It was Christmas that was huge. We had the Mickey Mouse village and got excited even as adults for her to pull that out while we were at school. Come home to carols and cocoa and the fireplace going. I’m trying to recreate that now for my kids
I'll admit I do usually buy one or two pieces of new decor every fall specifically (Not big into seasonal decoration, *except* for fall) but I always buy from the thrift store. You can find some of the funnest, cutest, kitschiest stuff at thrift stores this time of year.
amen to stainless steel! It is very cheap!! I have worn an anklet every day for 2 years now that is stainless steel and it looks new :) I also have several piercings on my body and they are stainless steel and I've had them for over 10 years.. it is a great material and I really don't get why it isn't that popular..
So is titanium. Light and durable!
Silver doesn’t look good on me :(
I only wear real solid gold though 🤷🏽♀️
I wish I was into silver but nope, gold is what I prefer. 🥲
@@alexmcginness8859 stainless steel can be different colors.. even without painting them (it's a chemical treatment, by changing the oxide layer the color can change)
Totally hear you about TS! I'm American but I live in the UK so i saw her in London and made a point of telling everyone I LIVE HERE cause I completely agree it's absolutely wasteful how people are travelling to see the Eras Tour for a 3rd, 4th, 5th time across the world
I just helped my parents downsize, and since I recently moved into a bigger place, I got to take a bunch of my favorite holiday decor stuff from when I was growing up. And some of that is from my grandparents, my great grandma hand painted a ceramic christmas tree that I have now. To me that is worth so much more than whatever tf is at homegoods
Lol thanks
I absolutely love the homemade seasonal decor from my childhood and things that I’ve had passed down from my in-laws or my grandparents. It really does make it more special!
Gender reveal parties are such a wild concept, I don't think they even exist in Europe. The gender of your baby just doesn't seem like such an important thing to me to have a whole ass firework about it...
😭 this is so real! Just arrived to England, a few days ago…the culture here is honestly so much better than the US. My husband and I have both been blown away by the most simple things that we feel we should have in America and we can’t figure out WHY we can’t be more civil like the Brits!!! My gosh! I feel like they’re so much less fussy than ‘Mericans.
We’re in such a small town coming from DC and ATL, and it’s so refreshing to just experience a slower pace of living.
Unfortunately, gender reveal parties are becoming very much a thing here in the Netherlands too, so nope Europe isn't spared this nonsense! 😩
@@martastanwick Oh no 😮💨 Have they been a thing before or do you think it's because of this being a social media trend right now?
I'm not sure, but it's been gaining popularity for a couple of years now. Social media (and people seeing/hearing others have these "parties") must play a part too, like you said. I refuse to go, haha 😂
I’m in Scotland I’ve seen a lot of gender reveals in the past few years none of them have been extreme like the ones posted for likes.
We are making our own pumpkin spice syrup at home using leftover pumpkin from pumpkin bread recipes! It’s turned out even better than any other pumpkin spice syrup we’ve tried!
Secondhand jewellery is great because you can see how the piece is lasting over time. It’s also so varied and interesting. So many fashion influencers talk about developing your own personal style, but almost all of them wear those little gold disc pendants layered with another necklace. It’s so boring.
My best tip for buying nice jewelry affordably is buying it from pawn shops!!! All of my everyday pieces are from there and they are so unique and have lasted for many years! This is also how I got my engagement ring and wedding band:)
Even the “quality” clothing items that will last a lifetime are going to go out of style so less firsthand clothing purchases is always better. For example, if I bought skinny jeans, a chevron peplum top, and a statement necklace from slower fashion brands back in 2012, they’re in the same landfill as the fast fashion versions :(
Very good point! This is why buying into trends is a never ending cycle because there is always gonna be something new that is trendy. I will say tho, if you hang onto stuff long enough it will come back around. I kept a lot of clothes that still fit me from my youth, and a lot of them have become popular and trendy again thanks to resurgence of y2k
Use your better judgement to buy the clothes YOU like and would wear.
Same point as holiday decor. Don't jump on trends, buy timeless pieces that you genuinely love
I just don't worry about being on trend. If my old stuff from a decade ago (or more) still fits and is in good condition, I'm still wearing it if I personally like it.
If you have the storage space, keep it until it becomes a trend again in 10 or 20 years.
Back in the day, gender reveals were when your doctor told you the sex of your baby during an ultrasound…
A lot has changed…
I can't deal with gender reveals at all. I would never attend one. The important part is having a healthy baby. Who cares about the gender?
Right? So absurd and sad.
yeah. its especially upsetting that you can see disappointment in one parent in some of these videos. also gendering your unborn half baked flesh blob (affectionate) is weird projection at best lmao
The idea made my parents so visibly sad when I told them about it. They spent ten years and their life savings on IVF to become parents. When they found out it had worked, the gender didn't even cross their minds, they were just so excited- I can understand gathering your friends for a party to celebrate a new baby, but these over the top parties are weird.
I can relate to a thing like a cake filled with cream or berries of the color you want. You can still think it's stupid, but there's cake :-)
It's a bit strange concept...but as long as the parents are happy about both sexes and it's just a regular get together with a cake, why not :)
I’d love to hear your thoughts on the emissions of purchasing a new electric vehicle vs keeping an older vehicle! My jurisdiction gives tax breaks for buying new electric vehicles but no rebates for keeping older ones, and I’m not convinced buying a new electric vehicle is more sustainable than keeping an old one. I think this is especially interesting to consider in places where power is coal and natural gas!
That's a great idea, I'd love to see that video.
For jewelry-
I thrifted all of my jewelry and I actually found a bag full of jewelry on the side of the road on trash day that was parts and pieces so I grabbed it and put it all in a makeup bag and I make my own jewelry for myself, my bf, and for friends. I have all the hooks and clasp to fix if they do break and the friends I make jewelry for know to bring it back to me so I can fix it.
Michaels sells metal string and they sell the clasp and the beads to squish the metal together if anyone was interested in fixing their jewelry. 💕💕
you have completely changed the way I live! I’ve started implementing small changes since I found your channel last fall. I still have a long way to go but thank you for making sustainability approachable, easy to understand, and shame free 💚
Agree 100% with gender reveal parties, I personally find them cringy. It feels like the importance of knowing the gender of the baby goes above the importance of the baby itself, meaning that the baby's worth isn't acknowledged till its gender is known (like it is not enough the societal pressure over our genders already as to put that pressure to an unborn baby). I don't know how to better describe it.
If I were to make tiny hoomins, I wouldn't wanna know what parts they have. You're gonna find out when it comes out.
I have a friend whose baby shower started with revealing the gender and name at the beginning, but I think all they did was pop a normal balloon and little confetti bits fluttered out.
That last point is so real. I used to work at a chain retailer that sold seasonal decor and it always astounded me how many of those items we sold. Like, something like plastic Christmas trees. Those things are reusuable for YEARS and yet somehow there were always enough people buying them each year that we sold out. How many brand new plastic Christmas trees does the average American suburb really need each year?? What happened to the ones from last year??
I am so beyond allergic to real trees, so we always had a fake tree. The same fake tree. I'm 28 now, and we have had the same tree at my parents house for as long as I can remember. I'm a professional at setting that thing
Edit:maybe they're like my coworker that has like.... 12? Trees? One in every room of their 4000 square foot house
I've never thought about this, I am now astounded as well! I can't comprehend either
For the concert one, I've never been to a concert, but I plan to fly for one, of my favourite band. They just don't make tours in Europe, so I probably would never listen to them live otherwise.
That’s like a vacation, that’s fine!
Going for a once in a lifetime special opportunity is not the same as flying to see a concert you already saw much closer to you to begin with. Enjoy your trip!
I think it's fine personally if you make a vacation/trip out of a concert trip (i e. see the concert and look around the area), but I agree with Shelby's statement that if you are flying only to see a concert that you have seen before, than that is not the most sustainable way to go about things.
I am personally down to travel for once in a lifetime events such as solar eclipse and use that to explore different areas, I think it's a good way to combine lifetime experiences in one trip!
@@OshawattIsANinja it sounds very entitled . Some people just don’t have enough vacation days or money to make it a full trip
This couldn't have come at a better time. I have started to buy crap I don't need and its because I'm struggling with being mindful about it. Ive been having health issues so I cant be as active as I used to be and that has taken a toll on me. This video is the perfect reminder and motivation to keep it together.
So agree with everything you said. Re: fall decorating, I like to decorate with edibles, like pumpkins and squashes and cuttings from plants in my neighborhood.
My grandma made plastic canvas Christmas tree decorations for the family when I was little. She also had them on her tree. I still use them to this day, and plan on giving them to my kids when I die. I love them! They remind me of my childhood and moments with my grandma. I couldn't imagine having anything else on my Christmas tree. 💖
Fun fact, Apple products you can run Linux on them so they can have another life when Apple decides they want to make your computer planned obsolete.
Linux is garbage though
That’s a great idea! My MacBook is 10 years old this year and it’s getting really hard to use. I haven’t run Linux in a while but I used to be a Linux Mint user. What’s your favorite flavor these days?
I talked myself out of buying a for-purpose diaper bag. Some of them might have a few cool features, but I already have a variety of bags and a convenient travel changing pad from my first kid, that I realized I can just use bags/backpacks I already own and move the components around depending on the outing.
It sucks because I keep seeing ads everywhere for the company that I considered buying a mini diaper bag from and it’s SO tempting. But I’m holding strong so far.
My personal favorite trick to finding well-made jewelry, specifically necklaces, is to make sure the company you are buying from solders their links. When they do this your chain is far less likely to snap or come apart and most of the time they use better clasps with these types of chains as well. I personally link James Avery's chains and you can put whatever charm you want on them, it doesn't have to be from James Avery specifically.
I really enjoy picking out one piece of seasonal decor per year to create a collection over time of only items I really love. I also try to keep an eye out for thrifted items in the offseasons.
Just remember that you can either have the object OR the space in your home. You can't have both, so try to consider your storage situation & keep your treasures safe. 💖
Normally I'm a huge buyer of Halloween decorations but this year everything seems so cheaply made and I'm just over buying crap. I'm enjoying what I have and decided this year's new item is going to be making a Halloween banner with all this holiday material I've collected over the years.
I love using the same decor year after year. Something so special about it - I forget I have it all and love looking at it again! 😍
I’ve been wanting a heavyweight cotton plaid shirt for years now but they are often $50+ and I just couldn’t justify it. Last week I found a barely worn vintage one at the thrift store for $9 and I was so happy. The fact that it’s vintage also means it’s likely way better quality than anything I could buy new.
I’ve had my Frye boots for 20 years. They look brand new thanks to an amazing cobbler. I had no idea they are trendy again.
I found a little holiday decor tip, it's printables. You can thrift or buy decor frames and then switch out artwork for the holidays. Super low impact and then you can partake in trends.
My partner and I put off getting a Christmas tree for years because of all the decoration and hassle that goes with it. Things being made so cheaply too. But last year, we did buy one that will come to the grave with us. For an entire month before, I literally made every single ornament inspired by ones from my childhood tree that were just timeless. So our tree is a mix of yarn, kraft paper, and wood beads with the colour scheme of red, gold and white. Honestly brings me so much joy. Best thing about it, if one breaks or goes missing, I can easily replace it 🤩
I needed this today! Paydays always inspire me to shop. So please make these every two weeks please 😂
How does anyone buy that ghost statue for $500??? It doesn't even look like it's worth the $80 the retail places want for it.
I agree about seasonal decor - half the fun of seasonal decor is bringing out old things that have history attached to them!
About the jewlery I totally agree! I recently found a small business from Hawaii that only does stainless steel jewlery, its female owned, local, they have a lot of timeless designs. I really recommend it lol
I wore a stamped aluminum necklace by a local artist every day for 5 years. I still love it dearly but the hole for the jump ring is worn almost open, so I replaced it recently. I hghly recommend aluminium jewlery! Hypoallergenic, light weight, super durable.
I’m currently pregnant, and we announced the gender at our baby shower. We whispered it to our 10 year old niece and she yelled it to the rest of the room. She was so excited to be apart of it and getting to technically know first. It was sweet. I highly recommend announcing at your baby shower, if you want to announce, for several reasons. 1) you already have everyone together 2) you only have to decorate for one party 3) people will stick more to your registry because they can’t just buy you a bunch of overly gendered things. I specifically made my registry very gender neutral because I want these items to work for multiple children. Traditionally you’re really only supposed to have a shower for the first kid and use everything for the next one etc.
The “hair identifier spray” reminds me of the gua sha. Both those item I have considered buying into, but peach fuzz really is not a problem, and after researching gua sha, the actual practice was with a spoon before capitalism got to it 🤦
I just like listening to you speak sometimes. Your voice is so calming
I try to get stainless steel jewelry in a more timeless design (think signet rings, simple bands, paperclip chains, herringbone chains)! For something cheap and non-tarnish it's pretty unbeatable. At this price point I could get sterling silver, but I got so sick of having to polish that ish, and obviously gold or white gold is a whole other price point.
Silver is also softer and may not stand up to the abuse of some wearers. Steel holds up much better.
i always have thought flying abroad for a concert youve already been to in your home country insane. Like im from the UK, sadly a lot of bands i like do not come here, id understand flying abroad and making a holiday out of it but just to go and come back? excessive
Restaurants giving kids a reusable plastic cup! Some restaurants do it automatically even. Prior to us sitting down; we come to the table and there two plastic souvenir cups for our kids. Very annoying! Especially when the damn restaurant even use plastic cups for their normal drinking cups and most families don’t take the kid cups home anyways. Like, WTF!?
I have about 1 seasonal item I switch out every season that’s usually coupled with a candle to really make it feel homey. I cant imaging spending thousands for the hot trendy DECOR item that you can’t even use and sits in your house for a few months, how wild
Also, as a kid we had a (store bought) paper/light cardboard skeleton we hung on the door every year. Almost every year it would get torn a little bit and my mom would tape it up. We LOVED that thing and I remember being so sad and disappointed when my mom declared that it was too broken to be used anymore.
Loved your take on holiday decor! My friends and I have a Halloween party every year and I try my best to repair things that break and get creative with how to decorate differently with what we have, but my friends inevitably end up getting a few new things every year (and usually stuff we don’t need). I try to lead by example as much as possible because I don’t want my friends to think I’m too pushy or trying to micromanage their lives.
I agree 100%. I have a perfect example for following your first reaction. I started seeing the ugg short slippers things everywhere and they are not cute or useful. My mind started to change and I was wanting them… thats how I knew i had to get off tiktok.
This year I faced the problem of buying decor for the home, because my apartment is empty and I have literally nothing, because of the war I had to start life with a clean slate and a new country. But many people here help me and gift me something, give away unnecessary things etc. and I am very grateful to them for that. Your videos are very interesting and inspiring ❤
I have absolutely had it with the Shein vacation hauls!! When my coworkers go on vacation, they love to brag about how they bought a bunch of new swim suits and dresses that they only plan on wearing once and then throwing away when they get home, or even at their destination! I’m all for having nice vacation clothes, but I’ve been thrifting all of mine over the years so I have a nice selection when I go somewhere. It’s wild and infuriating that clothing has become disposable
Re jewelry: For me sterling silver is always my best bet. To my knowledge, "stainless steel" isn't a strictly regulated material, so it's contents/percentages can differ. I have sensitive skin so I have to be super careful about the metals I wear, but I also don't want gold since it's so soft. Sterling silver is something that can easily be verified if it is stamped with 925.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong about stainless steel.
Affordable and intimate gender reveal idea - pancake day with family and the whipped cream is the gender reveal according to the gender. Very simple, fun and intimate.
Thank you! I really needed to hear that and a reality check these days. Things are getting out of hand on the internet, especially if you consume social media for way too long on a daily basis...
anti-haul buying extra food that will then go bad before you're able to eat it!! i think it's a balance that's hard to navigate, but SO much food goes to waste because of this
As a pregnant mom for the second time, I will, as I did the first time just get the gender from my doctor and tell everyone on a facetime call lol. That’s my big reveal
As a huge kpop Stan, I know fans who fly from state to state or drive from state to state to see two concerts in a row in both locations. Some fans are just die hard and know that their favorite bands are guaranteed to enter the country again for a long time, so they do all the traveling. Taylor’s from the US so I don’t get traveling out of the country to see her lol but I do know people that did.
I have a glass statue of a pumpkin that I painted. It was a kit but I hope it gets past down to whomever forever 🖤🎃
i collect vintage solid gold jewelry so i am very happy to see costume jewelry being anti-hauled. there is so much nice gold jewelry available, in every style you can imagine. buy something that lasts and sell it on if you change your mind someday.
I've noticed ghosts are HUGE this year for Fall/Halloween decor. It's not my style at all. Which is a blessing bc I'm not tempted to buy anything really this year. But also I've been enjoying slowly and mindfully adding to my decor of my favorite time of year and this year I don't think I'll be getting anything. But that's also fine
my mom still puts out my pumpkin/fall themed crafts from when i was 6 years old…. i’m 25 now :’)
If any of y'all like crocheting, my favorite fall decor piece is some leaves I crocheted and thumbtacked to the wall. I followed a pattern entitled "chestnut leaf table runner and placemats". I made like 4, using the same yarn but different hook sizes so I'd end up with different sized leaves. When they're not on my wall, they take up almost no space to store, about as much as a folded t shirt. In my case, I had received the yarn as a gift, but it's acrylic which I can't wear (the giver didn't know that). But the colorway was very autumnal, and that sent me looking for a leaf pattern to follow!
One of these days I'll get around to making something similar for winter, spring, and summer too, but like all crafters, I have many such projects on my "one of these days" list 😅
YES!!! I smashed the like button after the first one 😂
I absolutely love all your anti haul videos. I totally agree with the whole gender reveal thing, we simply told our family for all three of our children ranging from 2012 to 2023
Everyone is fighting over Hello Kitty Halloween decor...antihaul
Best gender reveal is waiting until the baby is born and the mother saying it's a boy or girl ❤
Will you make a video talking about the green party, how they came to be & what they stand for. Thank you for your content, I totally agree about how special it is to use the same decor every year
I don't know what kind of footprint it has, but all of my titanium jewelry holds up to being worn constantly
Is it just my phone, or is the audio really choppy??
Choppy, maybe a mic issue
Couple places almost sounds like audio skips for me
My gold filled jewelry SUCKS. Like it tarnished, and I dont wear it in water. I've been investing in 14k gold from costco, lol. Only bummer is no cutsey pieces, just classic ones
I love bringing out my fall and Halloween stuff!! I haven’t bought anything new in years-of course there are things I like but we can’t have everything!!!! 🤪🎃
costume jewelry is often made with nickel with you can develop an allergy to via exposure!
niobium is the best when you're shopping for a brand new piece because there isn't a legal definition for surgical steel, it also often has nickel in it
I unfortunately speak from experience, I break out in so many rashes looking for jewelry
I love your anti haul videos ty Shelbizzle!!
the most frustrating thing: swifties who come abroad to see the concert they’ve already seen, they are taking the tickets from “local” swifties…it’s already hard enough to get the tickets and it’s so unfair to other fans!
I’ve thought about it over the years and decided to minimize seasonal decor as much as possible. The only seasonal items I currently have were either nostalgic decor or things gifted to me 😊
Being from another culture, just the thought of seasonal decorations besides a christmas tree is wild to me XD
I love shopping and buying crap I don’t need so I take myself to the goodwill bins and fill a cart for $50. You’re not buying anything new and you know it’s the last stop for everything before the landfill so it feels morally correct to take home as much as you can 😂
I do not get gender reveal party at all!! No help from me.
YAS preach to the choir girl. Finally someone with sense
anti haul stanley cup accessories. we dont need to clip a whole purse to our water bottle when we are already carrying a purse...
The Halloween Hello Kitty merchandise at Marshalls is insane right now. If people wouldn't buy from the resellers, there would be no reason for people to buy up all the stock and resell it for an insane amount of money..
I’m a soon to be 50yr old swiftie ! I have no money so even seeing her locally is never gonna happen .. I only go to concerts I can get to in a hour or so. Saw the Pixies this summer ,we brought refillable water bottles and ate vegan burgers before we went . It was still amazing!
This time of year is hard on me because it's soon after my birthday and folks give me gift cards and cash.
I just have to be mindful of what I do with it, consider it "Meal funds" or "repeat-buy funds" for dishwasher tablets, shampoo bars etc. Thanks for the content.
Devastated by that ghost dog walking statue, because I have a tattoo of almost exactly that, which I've had for over a year. Now it looks like I got a trendy Halloween decoration tattooed 😭
Ive been trying to go 84 hrs (3.5 days) a week without spending anything so that way in a year it equals 6 months of not spending 😊
If you sleep for eight hours, you already have four months of no spending. So ten in total 😜
(Don't check this calculation too thoroughly 🤣 )
@@jochenkraus7016lol I definitely account for the sleeping hours in those 84 hrs 😴
Can you please make a video of where you buy your jewelry from? You could mention sustainable brands you recommend as well as how to find good quality pieces at the thrift store
There is an asterisk to the concert one. A lot of people don’t live in a touring country, like Asian citizens not in Japan or Singapore. I flew to LA from Portland to see a double show for an indie artist and visit my bff, but people are traveling to multiple countries to see one artist? Good God.
or Canada cuz we get very few tour stops
@@T-bear73 As someone in Portland, I’ve experienced artists just skipping the PNW or at least Portland. With Canada, big artists often make a stop in Toronto and call it a day.
I think one of the things ive been enjoying about not buying is just recreating them at home
Like making halloween decoratings from clay
I understand flying to a show and making a little trip of it… at the same time, once I went to a show in my city and the bartender asked where I was coming from, and when I was like “? Here?” he replied “I just met someone who flew from Sweden bc they missed the show there.” I’m in the US so it seemed crazy to me.
Also, could you put your earth pendant on a different/better chain?
Ok, so my frye boots are at least 10 years old and I've had them repeatedly resoled. In the fall/winter I wear them all.the.time. 10/10 I would love to see more people making it a trend to go to your local cobbler and make your shoes last longer!
I have to constantly talk myself out of gimmicks foods. Like Star Wars and black pink Oreos. I’ve done really good but I have gotten so close 😂to
If it doesn't have chocolate, I usually try 'em.
If I could afford to fly to Portugal for a concert, I would for sure make a vacation out of it. Bucket list type of life experience.
I'm a longtime follower of yours & am also a huge Taylor Swift fan who flew from the US to London for the Eras Tour after having already been! Just wanted to share my perspective. To make the long trip over more worth it, I went to more than one show & then stayed in London for a week to do more exploring of the city. So, my trip ended up being a bigger thing than just going to a concert & I made a trip out of it. For me, it was an opportunity to hit two birds with one stone (see an artist I love & explore a place I've always wanted to visit). That being said, there are definitely people who fly places for the sole purpose of seeing a show & for no other reason and I agree that it's wasteful!
