  • Hello friends! This is the first of many videos in my new Moving Series where I'll be taking you with me in prep for our move! In today's video I'm decluttering my clothes again, this time focusing on my MAYBE PILE and off season clothes I didn't wear. Are you decluttering? Let me know!

    On Friday I was honoured to help my friend to declutter his late wife's clothing. He felt ready as it was bringing back sad memories to have her possessions everywhere, but he needed some support with it. He kept some clothes which she made herself or which were particularly special, he gave me a small number of items, and the rest will go the the charity shop for the hospice where she died. The shop have said that anything which can't be sold in the shop can be sold for rags.
    Luckily my friend is able to see this as a step towards having visitors more easily as he is gradually creating more space.

    Good job!
    I used to love wearing jeans. I had a big collection when I was younger. Now, I just own a couple of them, and barely reach for.
    I don’t like the constricting feeling of denim pants . Now my thing are dresses. I find it easy to style, comfortable, and favorable for my athletic hourglass figure.

    Great video, Christina! It popped up for me just as I was considering a declutter, which could be a sign ;) I really like the tips you gave in the video, like the fact that there is no timeline for storage, and that you had the chance to wear things but just never did. I'll be holding that in mind when I do my declutter. Thanks for sharing 💖

    Thank you for this! I am slowly de cluttering the entire house 😅 I feel all our stuff is taking up way too many space which isn’t necessary. But with clothing I am in a funky space right now since in the past 3.5 years I completely changed jobs, started studying again and got two kids. So everything changed and I am still figuring out what my style is right now. But I definitely do not this many clothes! Planning on doing a big de clutter in the summer holidays 😊 This video was definitely inspiring!

  • @clary7661
    @clary7661 Před rokem +1

    Another really great video Christina! I have noticed the same thing too - when I really like an item and I buy it in another colour, I almost never wear that other colour. Now I just don't buy a second colour, but it did take me a while for me to notice my own behavioural patterns.

    Some thing I didn’t entirely understand when I started working out, was that my body was going to change… A lot. Many of my favorite pieces of clothing no longer fit and won’t again because the way my body has changed and the muscle I have gained. I would rather be strong And I appreciate my body so much more now. I do miss my clothes but they are just clothes. It has actually given me opportunity to change my style a little bit to be more me. As I shop for things that do fit. Now going through a third pregnancy… I put a pause on shopping, except for things that need to fit in my maternity body. It will be interesting to see how my style involved as I continue to work out, grow a baby, and go through postpartum for a third time.

    I have been finding that its getting easier and easier to get rid of my work clothing now that I've retired -- it was so hard in the beginning because they are pieces that were lovely for work but don't really work in my everyday life now...but once I get going I"m almost worried that I"m too ruthless...this was a good watch!

    I have two closets. And I really need to go through the closet in the guest bedroom. It’s full of dresses, blazers and handbags. My granddaughters went through a lot of my bags. So there is a lot less of them. I keep my good ones in my bedroom closet. They don’t get to touch them. Plus, I keep pillows for when all the grandkids come to stay. One time we had six grandkids and one of their live in boyfriends here. I live in a small house now. We downsized a lot when we moved the last time. We went from a three bedroom two and a half bathroom bilevel house to a small ranch three bedroom two bath home. We have land now. But the house is small. It’s okay for my husband, me and our dogs. But not for all those extra grandkids. Now my oldest granddaughter and her boyfriend just had a baby. So when she comes without a baby she brings at least three bags. I can’t imagine what it will be like with a baby.

    I've gone through various declutter phases in my life for the past 20 years -- books, music, recordings, dishes & kitchen items, clothes -- and one of the tools I use to help me decide "stay or go" is a pendulum. I'd still be sitting, deciding whether or not to keep this item if I didn't use a pendulum, and by now I'm pretty good at it. A pendulum helps me see, on the outside, what my gut knows. Over the years of using the pendulum I've gotten better knowing how I feel inside and what my inside is telling me. At first it was seriously hard to tell. I rarely regret something I'm giving away or feel I've made a mistake when using the pendulum.
    The green shirt -- even though small and doesn't take up much space, I don't think that's "your" green. It's more a grass-green, summer green color. Your green is a winter green.
    So sorry to hear about the Gucci shoes. You would think they would have figured out how to make comfortable shoes by now.
    Last week Frederique Bros did a video on the fast-fashion manufacturers and the consequences of their practices, apologizing for her own videos over the years. Uniqlo is on the list of manufacturers to avoid. I rarely shop directly from stores, mostly go second-hand, and don't buy from Uniqlo, but I'm going to watch and make sure not to even buy from these brands, second-hand. It's an eye-opening video that she did. Something to think about.
