      Cara Armstrong If local thrift stores are a problem, there are many online second hand shops like Poshmark just to name one. Kelly said she sells on Poshmark! They’re nice pieces for a fraction of the price. It’s not much more expensive than Wish (comparing similar styles), and it could be much cuter and higher quality.

    • @VainHarmony
      @VainHarmony Před 4 lety +47

      Thrifting is not for everyone all the time. Not everyone has the luxury of time. Not everyone benefits from an availability of certain articles of clothing they need in their size.
      Even with online thrifting, not everyone has access to the technology. All of these are obstacles to people prioritizing survival in a capitalist society. It's not that hard to admit that not everyone is privileged enough to accomplish ethical goals under capitalism. To assert otherwise is ignorant. If you know, you know. If you don't, then take the time to educate yourself on the hardships of others and hold those in power accountable for the cruelty they orchestrate. Depop is not the solution.

    • @LittleGreenPearl
      @LittleGreenPearl Před 4 lety +11

      VainHarmony Agreed. Thrifting is not for everyone, but it’s hardly inaccessible for middle class people. If you’re in a less than ideal place and need to pick up a Walmart something or other, that’s /fine/. My position is just that for people who can give up some convenience for ethics, do it. If not, buy the Walmart shirt that’ll help you work a job that’ll put food on the table. I don’t see why both our statements cannot mutually exist.

  • @shaeb5820
    @shaeb5820 Před 4 lety +596

    The responsibility for fixing the environment needs to be pushed more on the companies, not the consumer. Even if we all shopped sustainably most of the time, that effect is nowhere near what it could be if the corporations stepped up and did their part to make a difference. We should focus our energy shaming companies instead of individual people.

    • @Lolikins
      @Lolikins Před 4 lety +20

      Exactly. Like, I get the whole shtick about "if we all stop buying X product then there will be an impact" but the fact of the matter is we won't ALL stop buying that product for any number of reasons, some of which are what Kelly mentioned in her video: money. Shopping sustainably, ethically, organically etc IS a luxury that many people cannot afford, especially in these unprecedented times we're going through. I can stop buying h&m and using plastic straws all I like but if the majority of people do not and cannot, my impact will be non-existent.

    • @islandtingles41
      @islandtingles41 Před 4 lety +25

      I highly disagree with this. Should companies be ethical and sustainable? Absolutely. But they wouldn’t make any money if the masses weren’t buying their products. We vote with our dollar every day, and acting like we don’t make a difference is just an excuse to be lazy

    • @HSZ_5
      @HSZ_5 Před 4 lety +17

      Virginia Sosa completely agree. Putting pressure on these companies is needed, but taking away what they need (read: our dollar) plays a massive role. We need to push each other to do better and be better. ✊🏼💖 If anyone is looking for some great sustainable shopping apps: Depop (streetwear, vintage and designer), Vestiaire (all things designer and bougie in excellent condition), Good on You (a search engine that tells you exactly how sustainable any brand is), Vinted (UK), and Poshmark (US). 🌍💚

      No one needs to shame anything or anyone but we have to face reality. Companies will never have an incentive to change if they can count on your dollar regardless. Consumers using their money as a political tool is the most practical way straightforward way to make change. Lord knows we can’t trust govt to take care of these issues.

I can really identify with many thing you've mentioned in your videos, like being single (and bored), having just a couple of very good friend, being an introvert etc. I like how you encourage through your videos to just have a good time alone. I feel like many youtubers just showcase their super social life, and it feels fake sometimes. Your videos are genuine and honest!

That's to say, you haven't allowed all the things the world throws at you nor your gradual growth and changes in style and taste to tamper with the core of what makes Kelly Stamps, Kelly Stamps.
    I'd like you to know that your journey thus far has been such an inspiration for me and even with all the excuses I keep making for myself I'd very much like to become a content creator and influencer as amazing, transparent and genuine as you someday. Also, you have my deep condolences for all you're going through with the passing of your father, and even with how much we enjoy the videos I hope you still ensure to take enough time for yourself. You're awesome, keep doing you.
    Yours Truly,
    A Member of the Stampede.

Idk maybe if these sustainable and ethical brands didnt cost a fortune I'd probably shop there. Sis is on a budget!!!

    Losing someone you're so close to like a parent is so hard. I know when I lost my grandmother a few years ago (she lived with us for quite a while and was basically another parent figure), I didn't deal with it because I told myself that everyone needed me to be strong and help them deal with everything. While I don't necessarily regret that choice, it is taken me years longer to deal with that grief and loss than I think it would have otherwise. Take care of yourself, and never be afraid to maintain your boundaries around that grief. And don't let other people (especially random strangers on the internet such as myself!) tell you how to process or feel.

    • @KellyStamps
      @KellyStamps  Před 4 lety +34

      Thanks for the advice and sorry to hear about your grandmother! The grief comes and goes. The day he passed was the worst day of my life. the following days were even worse because I was inundated with paperwork and closing out his financials. I'm still doing that work and there are many loopholes and missing things. I noticed that staying busy today and filming a couple of video helps me not get too depressed, but I will certainly take a break if needed soon. The good thing about youtube is that I can film a lot in advance, take a break and just upload back to back when I feel up to it.

It's not necessarily about the sub count, more about views...however with sponsors CPM and sub count matters.

    I DO think there's a difference between trying to be eco-friendly and failing sometimes because of finances, and not caring about being eco-friendly and blaming the decision on finances. Not shaming anyone, just pointing out the difference. There are certain companies that I KNOW had/has horrible practices that I refuse to purchase from, but I only know that because they were exposed for it. Kudos to the people that do research to see where their clothes are being made. I don't feel like doing that, lol. Is it impossible for me to do that? No. WILL I do it? Also, no, but that's a decision I'm owning.

Everyone would make the switch if it was cheap, but it's not.

      @Himmarshee Street Live Not exactly, I actually upload regularly and see the feedback on my analytics to know. As long as my video gets high views in the first 8 hours and and gets clicked on often, it'll go to the front as usual. CZcams is rooting for me (literally go to their instagram 😅) I am resting though, I recorded a couple of videos today to schedule out in advance so I can just relax and focus on healing.
