- This is yet another start. I find it so hard to part with things! Enjoy this full closet tour of all my clothes and watch my second step to closet minimalism. As you can see, I've had most of these items for *years*. I'm excited to keep moving towards making each piece in my closet long-lasting, meaningful and reflective of my style.
Becoming a Minimalist Part 1: • My First Step to Minim...
(I've also done other things in my life to move towards minimalism that I haven't filmed!)
Tips for minimalism always welcome! ✨
I hope this inspires someone to realise that you can wear and re-wear and re-wear again the same pieces!! In a world where fast fashion is rampant, I think we could all do with adopting a more minimalistic mindset 💛

To me, it's not about only purchasing sustainably, but rather choosing to keep your clothes for longer! Buy meaningfully and the world will thank you ;)

Casual Magic of the Day: I watched 3 episodes of the German series "Extra" with my brother Folkert, who is learning A Level German. At first I understood very little, but after only 3 episodes, I picked up so many phrases! There was definitely magic in just sitting with my brother and having him be the expert.

The first and most affective step towards minimalism is to stop buying new clothes and to appreciate what you already own. Great video Jade!
Yes yes yes! To me, it's not about only purchasing sustainably (which is often a privilege in itself!), but rather choosing to keep your clothes for longer. Buy meaningfully and the world will thank you 😌
Totally agree with you !
I’ve never seen something more true
@@UnJadedJade yes! There's nothing i hate more, than people becoming "sustainable" and swapping everything in their closet out for fair fashion instead of keeping what they already have...
I was trying my shirts for year 11... they don’t fit anymore (I just got gcse results today). Corona made me fat. I bought new ones and gonna keep old ones coz I’m planning on losing weight so I can’t do that lol
I feel like the irony of minimalism for me is that the reduction in stress I get from having fewer clothes etc. is cancelled out by the stress in trying to decide what to throw away hahaha
hahaha true!! short-term stress for long-term clarity.
Sooo true
Just don’t buy new things and get rid of clothes once they are worn out. Stress free solution
Just some food for thought: I can't fit into the clothes I wore 6 years ago. And that's okay! If you're like me and have had to buy different clothes as your weight changes, don't feel guilty about not being the most perfect sustainable person ever. Bodies change sometimes and that's okay. And if your old clothes do fit, that's awesome too!
YES! Last winter I put on a lot of weight, mostly because of OCs that were just not suitable for me (I changed them obviously, but the weight stayed the same). Not being able to fit into your clothes was awful and I felt so bad that I had to buy even more clothes, but now I am grateful for that size change, becauce the smaller clothes weren't really my style and I could create an updated, more minimal wardrobe . Plus in my case I was a bit underweight before, so now I feel a lot healthier.
Thank you for this, been really struggling with this lately 😅
I agree! I give clothes I've grown out of to charity shops to help keep the sustainability process going
I can’t fit in clothes from like 2 or 3 years ago, almost entirely because I went from being pretty short and large to being 6’2 and a lot thinner over like 2 years, which sounds nice I suppose but it isn’t cos I’ve had to buy new clothes way too often.
Don‘t get rid of too many winter clothes, German winters can be brutal and long 😅 layers are key!!!
Yes!! I love in Germany and I am cold very quickly so for me winter starts in November and ends at the end of April 😂
"My main issue with minimalism: Being in the UK" 😂 So true for my country as well. You automatically need so much more clothes and different jackets and stuff
Germany is like this as well!
Is it me or jade truly looks gorgeous in everything she wears?
Its bc she radiates joy haha
She does. The power fashion QWEEEENN
One tip that I learned when getting into minimalism is to focus on what you want to keep rather than what you want to get rid of.
Pull out all the things that you know you want and the rest is negotiable 💕💖
Love how slow fashion is starting to become acceptable? Kind of? Hopefully? Is it? Or am I just living in my own happy bubble lol
I think it was always acceptable, but yes, the fact that it's becoming more popular and trendy is amazing.
@@bilingualbasia9519 exactly! The only thing is sometimes theres a bit of a stigma about wearing eg. a dress to a couple of events, which is rly not good. Woooo
Yes, to people who have money. Or minimalists. Regular people want to have a fair amount of clothes, and not wear the same things every other day (bcs that would happen if they spent more money on clothes - they would have a lot less of it because they couldnt afford it). And I'm not talking about 50 dresses, I'm talking about 5. And those 5 are worth less than 1 from "slow fashion".
@@LL-wu5ui yep! Which is why minimalism benefits both the environment and society woooo 😊😊
@@loisbeasley9345 You probably misunderstood what I was trying to say, but it's okay.
I love that you actually admit that you have clothing from fast fashion shops, without saying that fast fashion is great and amazing! You acknowledge that you can like a top from there, and be minimalist but like shopping etc. Love your vids!
I LOVE that green shirt - honestly clothes should be there to help you express yourself, make you feel special, capable and powerful. Inspiring me to hurry and get on with some packing I need to do ahaha, will be watching this n packing at the same time!!
Read this comment at the exact same time as she pulled it out of the wardrobe! Sorry, little coincidences excite me
I thought i was the only person who didn't own a single belt 😂😂
Who even knows their style because I don’t lol
Saaameeeee omg !!!
Same, and I feel so lost :(
mine’s just what I wanna wear :)
Teigan Banks I know my style but it isn’t like one thing so it takes a while for me to explain it, haha.
I also don't ! I dunno it's complicated I like the cute colourful korean style but I'm also into black edgy stuff , in the past I used to wear the latter and lately I'm more into the former but I like both idk 😂
This is such a great video and it must have taken you AGES to find all the clips and photos of you in the different outfits. 👏👏 We love that hard work in content!
righttt, Jade alwayss slaying
Jades whole wardrobe is like what I’d pack for a week away 😂
I also think its important not to promote Fast fashion, to which we all know the repercussions!
Honestly the thing about being in the UK is so true 😂 so hard to be minimalistic when you have to be prepared for all weather! And I always keep a basic pair of jeans but rarely wear them because I feel boring in them 😂 but I always convince myself that I need them because they’re an ‘essential’. I’m trying to bring back some of my old items of clothing I’ve forgotten I had at the moment! Rather than buying new ones.
Well minimalism is about only having what you truly need. If you have four seasons you do need clothes for all four seasons. Obviously quite easy to only have 30 pieces of clothing when you live in L.A. and the temperature doesn’t really drop to freezing nor is it raining a lot. So no reason to feel bad about the things you do need
Lilian that’s very true!!
I am obsessed with watching minimalism clothing videos as a maximalist and comparing and appreciating the mindset of it. I truly admire it so much even though I could never fit into it myself.
I love how you think about what "role" a piece of clothing has. And how you dont need 2 of a very similar item
Someone I know changes the hanger around once they’ve worn an item so they can see what ones they wear time again and what ones are left in the wardrobe for no reason - this might help subconsciously show ya what you don’t need to keep! :)
Aw that fluffy pink jumper brings back memories from Interrail times!
Jade is always so motivational - I wanna declutter my wardrobe now!
you look like a character in a coming-of-age film you'd see at an indie film festival
Gurrrl, I literally just started planning capsule wardrobe and I’m getting ready to organize all my clothes. THIS is the sign that today is the day, thanks Jade🧡🧚🏻♀️
Every time I watch a video you post, it changes the course of my day. You inspire me to be more confident, productive, kind, reflective and overall happy. Ant it means the world to me. THANK YOU, Jade❤️❤️
I was literally just thinking how I needed one of your videos in my life and this showed up!! Thanks Jade for always brightening my day 🌞
I need to do this again 🥺 i really appreciate you constantly using your platform to spread positive messages Jade, you never cease to amaze me ✨🌱
"An organized mess" ✨✨✨
I love her sooo much!!💖💖
I LOVE THIS SERIES! I've been wanting to tap into minimalism this year and have made some small, slow progress. This is really making me want to go through my things with more intention.
I just watched Titanic and Jade is here to lift my spirits up
Titanic had me feeling sad for a week. 😅
I love your energy so much! I really feel like I've learnt so much from following you these past few months. Thank you for doing what you do!!
Can you please drop a 2020 1 week reset schedule?? I couldn’t for the life of me find your previous ones anywhere and your girl needs a reset
I did a closet clearout video a few months ago, moved country (couldn't bring all my clothes), now I'm *moving again and I realise how little of my clothes I actually wear!*
Love you jade. Whenever I feel lazy or unmotivated, I watch one of your videos and they help me a lot .❤️❤️
I find your style so beautiful and I love it. My style is straight legged jeans and a stripy tee and I love that too. I’m always so interested in people’s styles and what they feel most comfortable in and this video has helped me see that my style doesn’t have to fit the current trends, it just has to fulfil my preferences.
this has really got me thinking and I’ve decided to give it a go myself! just cleared out my book shelf and it’s already so satisfying!
Ok but jade is my role model 💗🎉 in every aspect of life , she just inspires me everyday, thx jade 🎉🥳💗
Also the fact that you supported eve by buying her hoodie (the millennial coffee club) we love a supportive , phenomenal, beautiful (inside and out) queen
I just can’t get over that cute, constant little side smile Jade always has. Just makes her look so chilled confident and happy.
Love your videos Jade ✨
I love how grateful and intentional you are with your clothes! Definitely something I need to work on a little more. :)
I have watched all your declutter videos recently but this one just hit me I have been thinking about it since you uploaded a lot and now I have had a total change in mind set of buying stuff and the clothes I have and just feel so much clearer it is hard cause I’m a crafter ,sewer and very sentimental but all other areas I can practice this ! Thank you absolutely loving your videos at the moment as school related ones don’t apply to me any more ❤️
This was my first video from you, it was in my recommendation but honestly this video alone made me subscribe. Your smiles are contagious, love your personality and style.
Omg the intro is everything 😂 I aspire to cut down on stuff but I’m such a hoarder it’s very difficult! Jade I can’t say it enough, you have changed my life and I am so invested in all your content, it helps remind me to better myself. Something I’ve been manifesting is being selected for your weekly call, it may sound sad but I’d love to have a conversation with you 💕 With every lifestyle video you upload I take one action related to that video, so after this video I am clearing out my wardrobe. Thanks for all the positivity, sending all my love xxxxxx
Look at the Konmari method
Jade! I´ve been loving your content so incredibly much!! Please never stop inspiring young girls!! Love you
Great reminder for us who need to sort out our clothes hehe! Here's a tip: I think the KonMari method advocates for more of a direct all at once ruthless attack to declutter while some like to take their time and declutter one at a time. A good middlepoint is the Minimalism game, where you start with decluttering one thing, then declutter two the next day, and keep adding until the end of the month. Good luck to all of us trying to minimise and optimise!
Yay been waiting for this! I’m loving the minimalism videos!
♥️ thank you for spreading positive vibes. The world needs some!
Thank you Jade once again for motivating the untidy 👌❤❤ "organised chaos" should be a sticker on my wall 😂 I appreciate you, love all the content you have blessed us with recently xx
Omg I love you sm!!! Please keep doing this minimalism series !! I loveeeee it 🥺🥺💕💕💕💕
Thank you Jade, I really need to take a step towards minimalism! ❤️❤️ ( getting rid of highlighters Is my main problem😂)
this is the energy I need in my life
So it took 2 months to mess up your minimalism. That’s an incredible achievement in itself. Takes me about 10 mins.
Mess up?
Isabel Wagener the process of something becoming less tidy - I imagine you don’t have that problem
@@ChrisBL oh okay
I'm amazed that clothes from several years ago still fit you. I'm skinny, can't gain much weight but my figure changed so much during puberty and even during the last year (I'm 21 now) that I had to give away several summer dresses this year because I couldn't even pull up the zippers on them anymore. I don't feel bad about my body changing, I'm just sad about those dresses 'cause I really loved wearing them.
i so need to do this but i swear every time i try to de-clutter clothes my mum comes in and starts telling me 'what if you need this piece for x/y/z occasion' i swear :/
Love your healthy outlook on weight fluctuation, very refreshing 😊
your energy in your videos is so inspiring !!
Yesss this is the motivation i need. Your energy is the best!
Jade thank you for being so transparent about so many aspects of your life. It’s truly inspirational. So many teenagers should I aspire to be like you! Thankyou for inspiring me to just give life a go and just Chuck myself in at the deep end and enjoy the process. I’m starting uni next month and I’m going to be vlogging it on my channel :)! X
I totally relate to trying to keep items for weight fluctuations! Its hard when you want to be really minimal but there's no point in a wardrobe that only fits you sometimes!!
I would LOVE a video on other things you have done to move more to minimalism!
hey jade your videos always manage to cheer me up, keep doing what your doing
Hi Jade I just wanted to say that I love your videos and they are so helpful! Thank you so much for making them!!💜💜
I am so happy to find your channel. The algorithm actually did me good cuz I absolutely Iove your channel.
This is what I need right now!! Thank you Jade! Love your videos, and your energy🤗❤
Jade always inspiring and uplifting as per usual
jade you have changed my life so much thank you
Thank you for this video. Everytime I try to clean my clothes I only think about practical side and how much it cost. And I have huge amount of clothes which I don't realy like but I can wear it at home like my mom always say to me. That point of view that I should let clothes which I feel great in, love and feel good energy, feel like it's me, it is so amazing!
I just saw the notification and almost screamed. Ahh! I missed you Jade! Thanks for another video
any video that starts with Jade hiding in her wardrobe is guaranteed to be a good video ;)
What I found to be useful to minimize my closet with that many different types of weather (as we have in the Netherlands), is to use layers. So I have this white short sleeved blouse that I can wear by itself in summer when it's hot and during the winter I can wear a blazer over it. The blazer can then dub as a coat in the summer for chilly nights :).
Jade really is just BLESSING us with all this content huh ✨
YOU ARE SO LOVELY 🌸
your videos are always so inspiring!!!!! i love ur content a lot thank u for putting so much effort into ur videos! they're really refreshing and nice!!
0:47 everything you said there also 100% applied to me! I stopped growing when I was like 13 (I was that one tall girl my entire childhood but I'm 1m70 so that's quite average now that I'm an adult) so I still own so many clothes from when I was 13 that still fit and aren't damaged but I'm 20 now and it really doesn't feel like me anymore. I also don't buy a lot of clothes because I have social anxiety and shopping is ACTUALLY my worst nightmare I hate it (which sucks because I do love fashion very much and find it so interesting, and online shopping doesn't interest me either). I've done a lot of growing and reflecting since I turned 20 at the beginning of this year (I know it sounds stupid but it does actually change you) and I know more about who I am, I want that to reflect in my clothes. But I also don't have a specific style, I'm the same as you, I dress like a modern hippy but at the same time, I'm also into dark academia and the moody preppy school girl vibes! (since now we're with 2 people that's a group and we can officially call it a style haha). I've done a little closet clean out and thrown out the things that just aren't wearable anymore or that I just really don't like (mostly clothes I got passed down by family members). I've been trying to go to secondhand stores and I'd like to go to vintage shops but as long as the current situation doesn't calm down I would be much to anxious to go. I think I'm going to start just like you in this video, and say goodbye to the clothes that don't fit who I am anymore. I know it won't be easy because I put so much emotional value in material things, but I'm trying to stop doing that so much.
Are we the same person lol, I’m 1.7m too and I still wear a denim jacket from when I was 11
I seriously love your minimalism videos
Hi! I am from Romanian🇷🇴 and is the first time i see you on youtube and I'm already in love with your energy and your personality! You're truly amazing😍❤❤❤
I’ve been doing the same thing! Trying to find more sustainable, longer lasting items that I LOVE and that are 100% my style.
I spent a lot of money on cheap, fast fashioney clothes during my first year of uni because I needed a lot more clothes and that’s what I could afford but now I’m hoping to build up my wardrobe with better pieces 💖
every time i watch one of your videos i feel so much inspiration to make myself or even the world better. in your instagram post you talked about how we should control our feed to only people and things that make us happy and lift us up which is why you are on my feed! 💗💗 btw i LOVE your style!!
this means SO much, thank you! 🦋 and you're so right. We often fall victim to social media and blame it for feeling low, forgetting our power in carving that online environment. Glad it resonated!!
I love your videos Jade, you are such an inspiration xx
When choosing clothes it better be, "Hell yeas!" or "No." There is no in between.
It's better to use more money on less ( but high quality) rather than to use less money on more.
@@StudyWithShreyality You're so welcome
Please read...
I know I’m late but I am rewatching all of your videos! I love them! Anyway, with the light brown, off the shoulder long sleeve top, you look really great in it but I agree it’s a bit impractical. Another thing, you have really inspired me to do 3 things: deep clean and organise my room,
Throw out the clothes I don’t wear ,and study more for longer periods. Thankyou ,Thankyou so much❤️❤️❤️❤️
Would absolutely love to see a video about u manifesting the new pieces to fill the gaps that u want in ur wardrobe. Just think it’d be interesting to carry on seeing u develop your personal style and show how you’d shop for them e.g charity shopping vs more expensive sustainable shops. Lovely video!! Really impressed with how much u got rid of
I really love your personality! You inspire me so much in different ways :)
Wow I am inspired! Thank you so much for this - a minimalist wardrobe can create such a clear mindset xx
I genuinely decluttered yesterday! And now I want to Declutter again😍
I met Jade at the Deptford market and I secretly ~really~ wanted those jeans but boy am I glad she got to them first because they look amazing 🥰🥰🥰
Only yesterday i asked myself when part 2 would come. Yeay🎉🎉
You are GORGEOUS GIRLL❤️ love ur vids
yessss, you can literally motivate me to do anything
was legitimately one of the best intro's I've seen in a long time
While watching this video I started decluterung my closet!! No better company would I have asked for than jade’s :)
Your hair is amazing love!!❤️❤️
Also a good tip is to put the things you want to sort out away somewhere a certain time to see if you miss one of the things and if you do you can bring them back
New youtuber here!!
Excited to be part of this community😀!
i love this channel your videos ahhhhh we need more jades in the world
I love your new hair cut! (I hope it’s new). It goes with your transitional part in life from HS education to the big world. Love your videos Jade x
I am MOTIVATED🤩 about to go to my wardrobe and do the same. Loved this xx
I really need to sort out my wardrobe too! Fantastic video as ever 💕
this was so satisfying to watch
You are so inspiring. Love your videos 🥰
You never stop Decluttering. It's just part of the process. Don't feel bad about it! Of course it's still important that you learn not to bring the wrong stuff into your life in the first place, but in the meanwhile, don't beat yourself up about it too much.
Ahh I was literally just wondering about when you were going to do a second part :))
Oh my god your hair is stunning!!
