everything is changing and i have never felt more liberated and empowered than I do in this moment. I hope you enjoy the video and follow along on this new journey
Do You feel many people will have regrets with the tattoo craze? I am asking for a friend?
So inspirational! Love this change!
Three stages of life …. Desiring stuff , buying stuff , getting rid of stuff
So true!!
En after that buying again. It comes and goes and comes again.
So true, but you get to another stage in life when you become an empty nester and start getting things again, but not to the extent pre kids. Lol
Exactly !
So ‘the stuff’ is just an illusion ❤
As a non-influencer, this is a refreshing shift. I’ve never understood the need for bigger, better, more or the need for ridiculously expensive bags or shoes. None of us is perfect, allow the changes, even if those take you back in the other direction at some point. Everything is cyclical!
MORE, MORE, MORE!!!! Makes sense ... I'm like... WHERE DO YOU KEEP IT ALL??? and whyyyyy??
So happy for you!!x
we are constantly changing as human beings. you don’t even really need to justify it, we simply change as we age
Yes! I agree! I’m in my mid thirties now & my priorities are shifting!
True
You can do a full 180 and that’s completely fine
It was such a great era and I low key miss the makeup days but as usual you always left us with those bags *preluxs*
I haven’t watched you in quite a while. You have grown so much as a person, this was a super refreshing video
this makes me so happy to hear. i have been on a self-growth journey and I finally feel like the disconnect I have been feeling from myself and the content I was creating finally makes sense. i am excited for this new chapter
@@NikiSkyHey Niki,' where are all your high end luxury things? You are not selling them on the site you mentioned. Where are your bags? Where is the Zimmermann and Chanel? Are you keeping them or selling them someplace else. I never saw you wearing cheap Zara crap but that is what you are selling on that site. I feel like you are scamming us and i have been a subscriber for years. So tell us the truth.
She’s allowed to keep her things that bring her joy. It doesn’t matter that they are designer. She is building a better curated life suited to HER lifestyle and values.
i have been going through this recently buying and buying and realising that these things don't make me happy at all and the moment i realised this i started to appreciate other things in my life and it has helped me so much mentally and i am so much more at peace. Social media can be so toxic for people's mental health and you should protect your peace always.
100%
So inspiring. I did a purge and downsized my home about a year ago. I have never felt more satisfied or at peace. This opened the door to further introspection and self discovery. It’s amazing that we can spend precious years of life allowing outer influences to dictate who we should be. I wish you the best on your journey, living your best life.
So proud and pleased to hear this transformation news! I am right here with you coming for the journey... Just started menopause I got the same feels that you do as a new mom, with realizing how disconnected I am from my own identity and find that I am building from the core parts of me as a young girl that are still intact.
love that, thank you for sharing
Me too. Also in menoupause and i feel the same. This is my year of decluttering!! Im so proud ofbhet!! For not just staying in it for pleasing her subscribers or anyone else.
My true personal style = my Pyjamas.
Wow. You are very brave. I have been a minimalist my whole life, but to see someone like you make this brave move (your audience will be shocked) is really amazing. I admire you .
I think there’s a lot more of us experiencing this at this time. I have been creating fashion content online for 12 years and these days I’m not interested in shopping anymore. Instead I am reconnecting with my essence, my dreams and passions. It feels amazing!
I hope you still make videos on styling! Your pregnancy style tips saved me. I think you are so creative and I love that your tips can be used on any budget and even with things that are already in your closet.
i will be! but they will be in a very different format that will empower you and help you align with your true self
I’m so happy for you! I’ve done this twice and you are right - it is so liberating!❤️ Well wishes on your journey!
Sooo refreshing- while I love fashion I was getting tired of being influenced into another item hauls shopping shopping shopping- I think the time for acquisition of things is coming to an end even on social media you’re one of the first movers. I’m surprised how some are not evolving. Let’s grow together 😊
thank you for the kind words and for watching this video xx
Very proud of you! So many of us can relate. Congratulations on your personal growth!
We are with you Nikki Amazing transformation, I'm here for it.
Most of us are just trying to make our mortgage payments on time LOL
Niki, you are a true inspiration! With Haute Curators, our aim was to assist influencers who find themselves inundated with items, while also fostering a circular fashion ecosystem. We are overjoyed and feel privileged to embark on this journey alongside you. Thank you, Niki! 💝
I don’t think I’ve ever connected more with a video…how impactful! Best of luck as you move along this journey ❤️
thank you so much for the kind words
What a lovely video, thank you Niki! Looking forward to accompanying you on this journal. I too went through a shift in my lift and my relationship to material things. The work I did was through the Inner Engineering meditation practice from the Isha Foundation. Totally life changing in all the best ways! Best wishes.
I truly appreciate this process you've gone through. I am on a similar path to rid my closet and myself of things that are not 'me' anymore. Thank you so much for your honesty.
Love this immensely. This is so important for the future as a whole.
Wowwww! this is life changing video, thank you for making me confident for letting go things in the closet which I was holding on to for so many years. ❤
I am going through a similar journey. It is truly liberating. Thanks. I look forward to seeing where you go next!
Wow I’m just loving this!! So happy for you!!❤️❤️❤️
So proud of you ❤ minimalism at its best !
OMG I am so happy for you! ❤I am decluttering a lot of my stuff now and it feels so so liberating 😃 it’s a process and I love it
love that
Hi Niki,
I’m so glad to see the new journey you’re embarking upon. I too went through something similar during the pandemic.
I sold 247 items from my closet on Posh and eBay. Made enough to purchase a brand new Chanel lambskin mini and I’ve curated a closet I love. I own about 30 tops and 2 pairs of sneakers. I only bring home things I absolutely adore. Designer is a weak spot of mine so it isn’t always easy, but it feels freeing.
Please don’t feel the need to apologize about influencing. One of the videos you posted about shoes led me to sell my Manolo Blahniks but I miss them dearly. Going to repurchase them this weekend for my birthday gift. lol
I look forward to seeing your new videos🤍
thanks for sharing that with me! and thank you for watching and supporting xx
This is me to a T, only curate beautiful items you LOVE which are practical to you. I only own 3 pairs of heels, red, nude and black - the black is Manolo, they're beautiful and go with everything, I never wear heels except to weddings or events so I don't need plenty. I have 2 trainers, Veja (knock around trainers) and Jimmy Choo (more elegant trainers). then 3 flats - 1 Loro Piana mules, 1 ballerina flat, 1 massimo dutti mules. Again, few, practical and beautiful. I love all my items and get excited to wear them! but they don't take much space physically, mentally or from my bank.
I think this is what I needed to hear at this point in my life. Thanks for the inspiration Niki😊
This video is very much needed for many people who are dealing with the same.Thank you for doing this❤
wow, I’m going through exactly this! So thankful for stumbling upon this video and now knowing that it’s not just me.. 🙏
I am so so happy for you to hear that you reached this point ❤
Wow Niki, I’ve been going through an awakening since 2021 too but still haven’t found the courage to purge most of it yet. I’m almost in tears listening to this. You are so brave 🙏🏻
“I already am worthy”🔥🔥🔥🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I am a stylist and always loved your channel but never loved you more than right now. This resonates with me like u couldn’t imagine. You are so brave to go all in like on this journey. It truly inspires me. Can’t wait to see your next steps ❤
wow thank you so much for these beautiful words, i am so touched and appreciate it so much
I appreciate your honesty ❤️
I just did this recently, and now I have under 90 items of clothing. It helps that I am also going through some weight loss right now so it’s easier for me to get rid of more clothes. But the overconsumption in this world definitely needs to stop. Love the video
so happy you enjoyed, thanks for watching xx
This is the most touchable video ever, you are so right!! This is so inspiring, thank you so much for this beautiful video🙏❤️❤️❤️
This is the first video I've watched of yours and I'm already hooked. I'm going through a similar phase - can't wait to see your transformation.
So happy for you! Hope & pray that all your viewers go through your journey too and experience what you felt and realise n grow as well 💕🤗
thank you for your sweet comment and for watching this video
Thanks so much Niki .I'm 61 this birthday and I really needed to see your video and get that book and start to change my life thanks so much again ❤
Loved every second of this video. Congrats on your liberation and new journey ahead.
This is so INSPIRATIONAL! Love it! ❤
Yes, Niki!! Post pandemic, I think we’re all longing for true inspiration. It’s heavy lifting to purge all that stuff!! And all that stuff is SO uninspiring.. VERY happy that you’re making a deeper connection to uncovering your authentic self!! I am here for it!! Cheers to your new chapter in your life and in your journey 💞
thank you so much for your kind words and for watching this video xx
Of course!! & it’s definitely resinating… truly inspiring and thank YOU for sharing your journey.
❤ You are releasing Niki✨💯🙏🏻🦋 Next chapter it's on!! 🦋 best wishes my dear. I'm in baby steps doing it.
Love this transformation! Looove seeing more and more people awakening and going through such awakening- transformation! ❤
So happy to see people awakening ❤ You Go Girl 🌞
So unexpected, and refreshing from a fashion content creator. Thank you for being bold and brave and speaking your truth. We are forever evolving and this is beautiful example of growth, liberation and deep inner transformation.
thank you so much, your words mean a lot xx
Super inspiring and such authenticity - thank you ❤✨️🫶
thank you so much, i'm so glad you enjoyed
So happy for you. I too have been looking inward and recognized this same need for change. Growth is upon us!
This was beautiful, congratulations!❤
You had me until you talked about re-building your wardrobe. Didn't you get rid of everything so that you wouldn't have all the clutter?
Hypocrite for sure🤦🏽♀️
😂😂😂😂
Exactly!!!!
Just confused. As many of us were, and are 🌺
@@shushuwu
And now challenge yourself: four months not buying anything for yourself.
So proud of you to share this transition in your life, in a world where everything is buy ... buy... buy. Not easy to do in a materialistic culture, however we all need to look within (for me it is to look to my creator) and discover our true purpose and destiny!
I love this 💕 looking forward to your future content
I really am proud of you and I totally understand. You are young, much younger than I am, but we go through phases in life and how you feel about things that does not make you who you are is another phase. I don’t have kids, but age gives us wisdom and I feel exactly the same. Having said that, I am glad that I did what I did in the past, because, body changes, mind changes, priorities changes. Things that I did in the past and bought in the past does not make me happy anymore. Enjoy your motherhood and new phase of your life. Warm regards, Ferial from San Francisco.
thank you for sharing that with me and for your kind words xx
Hi, it's my first time coming across your vlog. I want to applaud you for going against the grain of consumerism. Your vlog is REFRESHING and freeing. It is healthy and I admire you for putting your convictions into action. All the best of luck. I look forward to seeing you GLOW and radiate from being released from the shackles of buying. I love how you're finding JOY in being genuinely YOU. You shine! 😁🤩
So super proud of you! Wish more young women were like you.
This is so beautiful! I’m so happy for you
We go through phases when we become so obsessed with some pieces. Then time passes, and that particular piece doesn't seem so appealing and tantalizing as it was when you first bought it. It's completely normal.
Niki, that’s so inspiring! Once I will finish my house refurb, I’m going to follow your steps to clean my wardrobe. You are amazing inside and out, thank you for sharing this new approach with us!
thank you for the kind words and for watching this video xx
I have been subscribed to your channel for some time now and I must say, this is awesome Niki. Shadow Work is not easy, but sooooo worth the journey and necessary if we what to reach our highest potential and true selves! Blessings to you. Im excited for this new season.
thank you so much, i agree with my whole heart
CONGRATULATIONS in discovering your TRUE SELF!!!!
Love you so much for this. I bought the book while listening to your previous video, life-changing. Literally. I wanted this Nikki since the day I started following you. Thank you for your courage. Thank you for your bravery. Thank you for the sisterhood.
omg your comment truly warmed my heart! i'm so beyond happy you bought the book and it has impacted your life so profoundly
Absolutely love this! I am going through a similar journey as a mom! Trying to prioritize financial and mental stability and experience over possessions ❤
I love this wave of awakening that we are seeing! Don’t worry Nikki, your journey will be great no matter what you decide. ❤💛🙏
Children really bring you back to your true being it’s amazing how much you learn from your babies while guiding them, you question everything you do. It’s definitely a journey and I wish you the best because it will be for the rest of your life. ❤️
So many people don’t have children and go through the same lmao is a personal thing no kids related.
@@swanthequeen2144 LMAO ….. Okay
I am so happy for you and your inner growth. ❤
thank you so so much xx
This is beautiful
Been following you for a while and happy to be on the similar journey as you and rediscovering you ❤
love that. thank you so much for watching xx
You nailed it. It has become a overwhelming and trends are changing now ever faster than a blink of an eye. And the truth is we don't need all of it .
Congraculations!! This is some type of awaking.
This is a really great video because we all hit these transitional times in our lives . I am now middle age, and I am realizing that what I used to like, I no longer like. My body and my lifestyle have moved me into a new phase of life. I can't wear stilettos any more, and I won't miss them. Now I choose from all the great sandals and sneakers out there. Just as you are now a new person being a mom, I am in the next phase (the one that comes after kids are grown). I am embracing it, and will be doing exactly as you are -- emptying my closet! Cheers to us and our next chapters. 🥂
i love that, thanks for sharing and for watching xx
Your decision suits you very well. Thank you for this brave step, I'm with you! ❤😊
thank you
What a relief this video is. Thank you ❤
Congrats on a new chapter in your life, go girl!
This video resonated with me so much. I just discovered your channel and really appreciate your content.
Your second baby's cherub chubby little legs are the cutest...the cuteness is overwhelming
Well done ❤ this feels so authentic
Im over seeing this trend- where alot of UA-cam fashion influencers who made it, brought a house, brought a bunch of nice exterior item, is settled financially. Same with Josie, Anna Bey, Lillian Elise Millen, they go thru a period of being more homey and the previous items in their life don't suit their lifestyle anymore. This is a trend itself
sorry but this is not a "trend" for me. this process has been an awakening and a transformation process i have been going through for the last few years. everyone has a unique process and journey, and it is not fair to label everyone as the same. i actually had no idea that this was "trending"
Beautiful just beautiful!! Niki thank you so much for sharing. I look forward to following your journey, rawness and self alignment xx
I feel like I’ll be following this process along with you as I am on the same path and have just done a major purge of 51 bags of clothing xx for me this video couldn’t come at a better time xx much love ❤xx
i am so so happy to hear that! thanks for the love and support xx
Ty so so much for making this video. It was exactly what I needed. Many times I felt that if I bought this certain purse,shoes,etc. it would make me happy. You are so right when you say the high last 5 minutes and then I was in the hunt for another purchase. It truely is An addiction. My husband has bailed me out 3 times already with credit card debt. Hopefully your video will help me🙏. Thank you for pouring out yourself to all of us who needed this video. I always loved your style but now I admire you for yourself and inner beauty💛
thank you for sharing that with me and for watching this video xx
You are amazing 💪🏽💯 feeling the same way being a mom of 2 kids under the age of 3 I also reset my entire mindset and lifestyle. Guess a new kind of freedom 🙌🏽Thank you Niki for your honesty. Can’t wait to see more of your journey.
Congratulations on your beautiful , courageous and freeing transformation !
thank you for the kind words xx
Congratulations sweet girl!! You Go! 🙌
wow..., so proud of you! i usually don't follow fashion influencers bc of the way the promoted consumerism. but you're so inspiring. i agree with everything you said, i hope you find true happiness with being your most authentic self 💚 you have a new subscriber :')
thank you for your beautiful comment and i truly appreciate your support
Thank you for your honesty and vulnerability. Life is about reflection and being the best version of ourselves. Keep the focus on you and your family and everything else will fall into place. Your share gives me hope.
I can so much relate. So proud of you. 🙏🏼
I feel you. Children are awakening, healing and exhausting all in one. I went through a radical shift aswell when I became a mama. So glad you are on the healing journey, it isnt an easy one. Which is why not many people do it. LOVE Dr. Shefali!
YAY! Divine timing, thank you for stepping into your light.
Sending you lots of love 💕 you’re helping others.
thank you so much, i really hope so
You are so refreshing!! I am so glad you made this video ❤
Thank you so much
This was such a refreshing video considering what we typically see from content creators. One of the many reasons I continue to follow you, your content inspires me!
thank you so much for the kind words and support
This video is so important Nikki! I want to learn the business side of you. My husband and I live in Stouffville with a small business but it’s still a struggle to pay our mortgage.
thank you for watching and for your request. i would love to share more about my businesses in future videos and hope i can help in some way
Cant say enough how much I loved and needed this ♥️
You are growing and changing and becoming mature. Motherhood brings the best in you. Embrace it x
love this honesty
what a awesome mom! you are setting a great example for your children, and others.. This is great motivation. Love your authentic self🌼
I'm so here for YOU!
Here for this chapter, Niki! So happy for your personal growth. 🙏
I love cultivating a personal sense of style, so I follow a lot of people in this space. However, I've grown deeply disturbed by our consumerist culture. It feels damaging to my soul, and our collective mindless consumption contributes to blatant human rights and environmental horrors that the fashion industry actively brushes under the rug. I now unfollow people who do hauls or LTKs.
Thank you for using your platform to advocate for discernment. ❤
thank you for your kind words and i agree. there is so many controversial topics i would live to bring to light on my channel
This video came to me in the best moment. Thank you. That’s what I needed!
I am thankful for this video- it definitely sparked some inspiration in me
You just gained a new subscriber!
Omg. You are amazing! Congratulations on your self discovery.
