Hi , I'm Lily from Indonesia. A week ago I met my friends outside for a night chill and decided for the first time to use a long oversize pants and a hoodie. Usually I always used long skirt to make it polite. But when my friend said "You look tall and stylist", I started to think that I don't really know how to dress and pull my body structure. It was such an unimportant moment, maybe they have forget about it, but really changed me. Thats why I'm glad to watch this video and knowing you (even if I'm late ehe) coz entering 20s, is a real deal. Thank youu ^.^
I second the ‘Buy slowly’ tip! I got addicted to HIIT and lost a lot of weight that I went from wearing XXL to M. Got too excited and I bought a ton of clothes. Now, due to the style of training, I didn’t really gain muscle so when I switched my training style and started to gain some, my size naturally went back up and now I’m a size L. So now I basically need to repurchase my entire wardrobe since they don’t fit me anymore and it’s such a pain since some of them I can’t find anymore and the whole process is expensive.
Same! Lost 41kg in less than 8 months, and I kept buying clothes throughout... Wasted a lot of money, and right know I can only wear 2 pair of pants and 3 hoodies 😅 Nobody told me this was going to be a problem lmao
I can't believe there are people who throw their clothes on the trash. I've always given it to people who need them. And I can always do it because I take very good care of my clothes so even when I don't want them anymore they still look new
Thing is, unlike in your case, for many people, actually throwing their used clothes in the trash is often the least bad option. It's an environmental disaster, but donating just compounds it, and there are reasons for it besides just laziness. First off, most people don't take care of their stuff like you do. Reasons include ignorance, laziness and just general norms, but also - properly caring for & mending clothes is real work. It takes real time and labor and knowledge. For all those centuries when we think of women as just kinda not having jobs - that was a huge part of their job. In a household where everyone already works minimum 40hrs/week outside the home, and nobody grew up extensively taught how to do these things, that takes a lot of motivation to dedicate time and effort to. And as far as at least paying to have them repaired etc - while manufacturing these clothes new is done cheaply, automated and w/ sweatshop labor in low income countries, to get something repaired you have to pay a person in your own country that needs to make a living wage here to do it by hand. So it tends to actually be more expensive. Second reason: affordable clothes (affordable to working class & poor i.e. most people) have been increasingly manufactured to not hold up well for more than like 10-20 washes regardless. (Also increasingly true of most brands regardless of price point, but fast fashion tends to be the worst.) At the same time, the norms now say a perfectly functional sweater w/ pilling, or a slight discoloration or w/ever, is ratty looking and "disheveled". If it's not a very fancy brand or something, it likely won't go for even one $ at a thrift store, because there are just such mountains of it at this point. So. If your things are not in decent condition (OR otherwise desirable enough that they're worth repairing + possible to repair), it's actually better to throw them in the trash than to burden a charity-run thriftstore w/ them. Their by far biggest expense is the labor of going through the mountains of clothes donated. Yes we are doomed as a species.
Man all people I know who are into fashion won’t tell where they have their stuff from, scared of being copied and I just saw you included a link for each item. GOAT
This really thought me a lot. When I first started watching you a couple months ago, I basically overhaul my style. I had a bunch of clothes that I would probably wear only a handful times a year and that help me to pass those on to younger siblings or family members. There are multiple mistakes that you mentioned in this video that I definitely made and my goal is to work on them and become aware of how much money I'm spending and caring for the environment to not create waste. Although I have learned and made my fashion intentional, i found that I am still over buying because it's a deal, this video is helping me come back on the right path. Moving forward, I will try to incorporate all those given advice in my daily fashion life. Thank you very much Tim.
Thanks Tim! I've been listening to your tips for a few years now and they really help me get more comfortable with my own style and to have an 'upgraded wardrobe'. Until now your tips are still super useful and thank you again for sharing & inspiring us.
I like how his suggestions are attainable and based in real life situations. I agree 100% on adapting your clothing style to your profession and keeping it as comfortable as possible. It doesn't make any sense to follow a trend or a particular style that might look very appealing at first but lacks comfort and functionality.
I'm a woman, a new subscriber, and love watching your videos! I'm not a style beginner, but everyone needs a refresher and reminder now and then. Plus, the production value on your videos is incredible and they're so aesthetically pleasing to watch 😅
One tip that wasn't talked about here, if you're in an area with extreme seasonal changes (like me in Canada), having staples for different seasons is really important! I wouldn't wear jeans, or sweaters when it's really hot in summer, but I also can't wear shorts in winter. Don't buy things in every colour really gets me, but helps. I found a pair of jeans that fits me perfectly, and I'd love to get more, like black ones, light wash ones, etc. But I like the idea of a slightly different style, I might go for a slightly different cut next time. They're also Levi's from a liquidation sale, so I'll likely never find a $60 pair of jeans down to $15 again in the style I want. I also sew, which makes it hard to resist the urge to use the same pattern in tons of different fabrics. If I do, like with my favourte summer pants style, I try to do something different, like a different waistband, slightly different shape, or different pockets, and very different fabrics. I did one with a denim inspired voile, and another pair with tie-dye in colours that match a lot of my clothes (I wear a lot of blues). I've also been donating a lot of stuff as I recently moved and took the chance to go through my clothes so I wouldn't be moving a bunch of stuff I don't want. I was surprised about how much stuff I had, that I hadn't worn in about 4 years! I got rid of a lot, including gifts that I didn't really like to begin with, but didn't want to offend anyone by getting rid of it. Moving just provided me with a good opportunity to go through stuff.
I love your content, it's super clean and helpful I'm a woman and I know your channel focus in fashion for men, but your tips are sometimes what I need
Crazy!! I‘m just wearing the same shirt every day… got it more than 10 times. And the same trousers, too! Just switching the shoes and it gives me so much headspace!
Bit of advice, if you have the time then start learning about investing money too. It's never too early and since you're young you can afford to make a few mistakes. :)
@@wafflewaffle8529 read up on ETF's (also called index funds or trackers). It's literally the easiest and best way of investing your money. In short: index funds contain shares of hundreds of companies in the industry you chose (= spreading risk). Buying individual stocks is a waste of time and carries huge risks. An incredible amount of professional investors (those with millions if not billions at their hands) fail to beat the market, so what are you gonna do with your budget? Trackers simply follow the market and these days it's very easy to purchase them. Just choose a few of them (it doesn't even matter, as your risk is spread very well in only 1 tracker even) and buy into them monthly. The initial time investment is the biggest and takes 6h max (finding and setting up a broker, finding etf's), after that you need 5 minutes every month to buy some more shares in your trackers.
Hi Tim! Ive binge watched and rewatched many of your videos numerous times for the last couple of weeks. Your way of presenting, explaining, showcasing is extremely entertaining and interesting to watch. Although I personally like any videos you post, a video idea for the future that many might be interested in, would be “the most expensive items i regret buying”. I personally would really like to see a short of you talking about your new rick owens shoes, in the sense if they are well made, comfortable and so on, so your general thoughts on the shoe
My OH MY, you are an eye opener! I have never gone through a video and felt so informative abt fashion in my life! I felt like this was something I needed to know as I am stepping into my 20s. Really love the last tip!
You are a breath of fresh air. Your channel is exactly what I needed in my life right now. It almost simplified my decision on what to wear. Thank you so much. 😊
I thought of organizing by colour but I didn't. For my t-shirt pile for example, newly washed ones go at the bottom. So I would always pick up those that have been washed for a while. This ensures proper rotation. If I really want to pick a color, I would still pick it but it would be the top most of that colour. Same goes for hanged shirts and pants where newly washed ones go on the left. Then I pick the right.
The two most important things I feel are how comfortable the item is and to try not to impulse buy all my clothes. It’s hard but it’s something I’m trying harder to change
Hey Tim, can u please make a video on just how u organize and fold your clothes? I fold my sweaters and tshjrts but whenever I go out to pick one, its hard not to mess up the pile and wrinkle the other clothes.. Is there an easier/better way to go about this? Or is this just something I'll have to deal with?
I just try to neatly lift the pile above the item I’m taking out. Don’t have some secret hack for you unfortunately, it’s just about being meticulous and organized with it :)
Some people store their folded clothes vertically, like books on a bookshelf, in drawers. Mind that if you go this route, you can only take out a few clothes at a time or everything will topple over.
Thank you for this so much! I am a bit of a masculine-presenting woman without a defined sense of fasion, and out of all the style tips I've seen so far, yours have resonated with me far more than anything else. I feel like I'm perfecting my outfits every day since I found your channel ❤️
Your videos are very, very entertaining and full of useful knowledge!! I find your jokes pretty funny and the bloopers at the end always bring a wide smile to my face :]
I wish this video was around when I was younger! My introduction to fashion was streetwear, especially sneakers. I got the confirmed app and went in on as many 350's drops as possible. Now I have 10 different colorways and have only wore 1 or 2 of them. At least I can resell them, but it was a good lesson to learn.
Absolutely agree with the last advice to avoid impulsive buy. Whatever non essential items, I write them in a list, if I still want it after few weeks or 2 months then I’ll probably buy it.
a thing I do is I keep the tab for the item open, keep it there until I make enough money to buy 2 and then decide if it was worth the work and that's when I make the choice!
Love your tips. I am very good at not buying stuff in the moment. I always think: "ok it looks pretty in the shop but will it look good at home?" and then I am rarely happy with an item.
Video well done Tim! I can tell you're passionate about fashion and after watching this video and feeling what I felt, I can tell that I am too. Thanks man
I came up with similar tips when buying watches. Saving it for a few weeks before you pull the trigger is a great idea. I've saved so much money doing this.
1. DON’T think there is one singular way clothes should fit 2. DON’T buy things in every color (this is what I needed to hear most) 3. DON’T buy into every trend 4. DON’T buy something just because it’s a bargain 5. DON’T keep clothing that doesn’t suit you (sell / give away your clothes!) 6. DO identify your wardrobe staples 7. DO put comfort above all 8. DO dress for your lifestyle 9. DO organize your wardrobe well 10. DO buy slowly and intentionally
Hard part w/ 3:36 is that the bargain aspect tends to warp your perception of how much you like it. Like, if it (supposedly) used to be $150, it just tends to look like a better thing at $40 than a similar thing with an msrp of $40. I once had a partner who would grab the item I was eyeing at outlet stores, hide the price tag and be like "JUST LOOK AT THE THING, WHAT WOULD YOU PAY FOR IT? WHAT IS THIS WORTH TO YOU" which was fucking brilliant and I think about it often when browsing clothes.
Honestly love the last 30 seconds of the video. Also, great advice will definitely use the 5 tips and one-week review when choosing clothes more often. (Will also prioritise comfort).
I got a shirt with many pictures of Ryan gosling in front of a fiery background and "My mom thinks I'm beautiful" written on top, so I think doing pretty good for myself
I think it's still fine if you still wear them often! his point on that tip is the amount of times you'll wear it. when it's uncomfortable to wear, you usually get hesitant to wear them often.
Yeah, if you're actually wearing it that's fine, unless it's something that will seriously f*ck up your body long term. Probably only applies to terrible shoes, possibly some bags. You're probably younger, as a 40-yo w/ a physical job & a crap body I say enjoy prioritizing looks while you can 😂
Having entered my 20s a few years ago, these are some really welcomed and helpful tips for someone who's looking to develop their personal style and build a wardeobe they like. Thank you Tim! As a side note, I know you listed an alternative, but I really need to know what those brown smart trousers are in part 6, or if anyone else knows?
This vid came up randomly and im glad it did im currently going through a damn crisis with buying shit i dont need and i feel like i have a serious problem. Vids like this help me to realise i dont need to buy everything just because its new. Gona subscribe!
I have more appreciation for personal style and fashion now after becoming a subscriber to this channel. Always looking forward to your videos man! Sending love from the Philippines!
Hello Tim, I just recently discovered your channel, and I absolutely love it! This video was especially helpful even though I'm a woman! You give a lot of good tips that I can use too. I especially buy unisex business clothes like button-down shirts in the men's department. Keep up the good work, and stay blessed! 🙌
DO put comfort above all, I like this also because there are probably subtle ways our body will respond to discomfort, perhaps lack of confidence for example.
I really love your videos brotha it's helping me a lot for real especially since I buy shit that I feel I need and don't wear them and now watching this I figured out what I should have in my closet.
lovely vid! I recently decided to revamp my wardrobe so it made me feel super good thing i already started doing some of the stuff you covered before even watching this vid.
I'm a new viewer and I'm enjoying your content, I find it really helpful. I personally can't wear fitting shirts because I'm not too comfortable with how my upper body looks, so I appreciate the tips for oversized shirts and how to style them!
Tim, another great work from you. Love it! Could you make a video about body posture (sit, stand, walk, carry a bag) and how to pose in photography shooting? Would really appreciate if you could teach us.
A friend once told me that items of clothing either love you or they don't. If you find an item that loves you, wear it til it falls apart because you'll be guaranteed to be totally comfortable that way. It's the only fashion advice I've ever followed.
Cheers TIm 👌 the principle about dressing for your lifestyle is a key one, especially as you get older and your life changes. Also definitely need those last 5 rules to keep the spending slow and real 😅😅 very useful vid!
I did make the mistake to buy clothes that I weren't fully comfortable with and didn't thought about what items would fit with the clothes I just bought many times before. Especially the comfort problem is what I can completely relate to out of the things you mentioned in this video.
8:25 that's what I did.... I could have buy 3-4 jackets but I thinked carefully and save some more money and bought a $600 jacket... I am in love with it
also dont let someone else influence you too much. i spent so much money on clothes i bought because a friend (or even worse my mom) liked them/told me they’d look good on me. most of the time i end up not liking and therefore not wearing those pieces. but i also can’t get rid of them because i dont want to hurt anyones feelings (still working on that haha).
This vid made me realize i have to declutter my clothes cause i dont wear half of them and im currently struggling on how to manage every piece of clothing and finding good pieces to wear.
Many places have a public donation bin accessible a few minutes from their house. It's super easy for me to get rid of any clothes I don't want and even gives me peace of mind that shirts that are still in good condition for wearing are going to people who can use it.
I struggle most with letting stuff go. I always keep old worn out clothing for wearing around the house or getting dirty. But, it’s to the point I have little room for new clothing
in my early 30s finally discovering what last and truely suits me if only i knew also in my 20s lol its amazing how at 20 i really didnt think much about fasion outside of brands and going to the mall.
Organizing your wardrobe is one of the most fulfilling things right there. Once I did this I never went back
Recommendations for a closet organizer?
@@johnswan03 I am here in India, but something like this worked great for me.
YESSS it’s so satisfying and just having the feel of a nice wardrobe is so good
@@eav1846 especially when it's mostly curated peices and it's so satisfying to have everything organized by color and brightness 😍

Good for you though.
Lost 20 kg in my previous job, now i have to buy new stuff.
Hopefully i don't gain any weight again so i don't have to purchase new stuff again.
I can't believe there are people who throw their clothes on the trash. I've always given it to people who need them. And I can always do it because I take very good care of my clothes so even when I don't want them anymore they still look new
Word
only thing i throw away is my socks when they get holes in them. anything i don’t want goes to goodwill
Thing is, unlike in your case, for many people, actually throwing their used clothes in the trash is often the least bad option. It's an environmental disaster, but donating just compounds it, and there are reasons for it besides just laziness.

5. DON’T keep clothing that doesn’t suit you (sell / give away your clothes!)
6. DO identify your wardrobe staples
7. DO put comfort above all
8. DO dress for your lifestyle
9. DO organize your wardrobe well
10. DO buy slowly and intentionally
These are actually good tips. Figured a few out myself through trail and error but fr I’d listen to this man
Not buying things on sale - fully agree.
making a bee line to sale section hoping for a bargain, leading to piles of unworn clothes as a result .
Last tip is a life changer! Thanks for the valuable info
Hard part w/ 3:36 is that the bargain aspect tends to warp your perception of how much you like it. Like, if it (supposedly) used to be $150, it just tends to look like a better thing at $40 than a similar thing with an msrp of $40.
I once had a partner who would grab the item I was eyeing at outlet stores, hide the price tag and be like "JUST LOOK AT THE THING, WHAT WOULD YOU PAY FOR IT? WHAT IS THIS WORTH TO YOU" which was fucking brilliant and I think about it often when browsing clothes.
I do appreciate this soundtrack. It’s so fresh and edgy! Also, always love your videos. Nail it every time
Great advice. Much more codified than I might have done but how you choose quality, carefully is good planning.
Honestly love the last 30 seconds of the video. Also, great advice will definitely use the 5 tips and one-week review when choosing clothes more often. (Will also prioritise comfort).
Great video ! The bloopers section was the cherry on top 😄
I got a shirt with many pictures of Ryan gosling in front of a fiery background and "My mom thinks I'm beautiful" written on top, so I think doing pretty good for myself

I still struggle with number 7. Even if the shoes or the outfit is not too comfortable, I still wear it because I love the way it looks.
I think it's still fine if you still wear them often! his point on that tip is the amount of times you'll wear it. when it's uncomfortable to wear, you usually get hesitant to wear them often.
Yeah, if you're actually wearing it that's fine, unless it's something that will seriously f*ck up your body long term. Probably only applies to terrible shoes, possibly some bags.
You're probably younger, as a 40-yo w/ a physical job & a crap body I say enjoy prioritizing looks while you can 😂
Tim Dessaint out here blessing my morning
I got you 👊
Having entered my 20s a few years ago, these are some really welcomed and helpful tips for someone who's looking to develop their personal style and build a wardeobe they like. Thank you Tim!
As a side note, I know you listed an alternative, but I really need to know what those brown smart trousers are in part 6, or if anyone else knows?
your editing still getting better. crazy to see the growth. appreciate ya Tim
Thank you for your kind words man! Appreciate you 🙏
Thank you for adding the lifestyle tip. I was worried I was buying to many training clothes 😅... but I go to the gym 4 to 6 times a week.
This vid came up randomly and im glad it did im currently going through a damn crisis with buying shit i dont need and i feel like i have a serious problem. Vids like this help me to realise i dont need to buy everything just because its new. Gona subscribe!
Your vids always come in the right time man, absolute bangers
i bought trousers online and had them hanging, not being sure. Thanks, Tim, i immediately returned them, think I was never gonna wear them ! 👏🏾
I have more appreciation for personal style and fashion now after becoming a subscriber to this channel. Always looking forward to your videos man! Sending love from the Philippines!
love your channel so much man
Hello Tim, I just recently discovered your channel, and I absolutely love it! This video was especially helpful even though I'm a woman! You give a lot of good tips that I can use too. I especially buy unisex business clothes like button-down shirts in the men's department. Keep up the good work, and stay blessed! 🙌
Hey Tim! Please make a video about bags, what type of bags are best with types of outfits! Been a fan of yours for months now!
Organizing your wardrobe is one of the most fulfilling things right there
DO put comfort above all, I like this also because there are probably subtle ways our body will respond to discomfort, perhaps lack of confidence for example.
I really love your videos brotha it's helping me a lot for real especially since I buy shit that I feel I need and don't wear them and now watching this I figured out what I should have in my closet.
lovely vid! I recently decided to revamp my wardrobe so it made me feel super good thing i already started doing some of the stuff you covered before even watching this vid.
Really useful advice there, Tim. You taught financial management as well as personal fashion. Touche, my guy
I'm a new viewer and I'm enjoying your content, I find it really helpful. I personally can't wear fitting shirts because I'm not too comfortable with how my upper body looks, so I appreciate the tips for oversized shirts and how to style them!
i actually needed this type of content thank you so much
Really like the editing ! I don't know if you've changed things up recently but it's striking me as so much cooler and original ! Good job 👌👌
Thank you! We’re always evolving and trying to improve the production quality at every video. Glad to hear it’s not going unnoticed!
Tim, another great work from you. Love it!
Could you make a video about body posture (sit, stand, walk, carry a bag) and how to pose in photography shooting?
Would really appreciate if you could teach us.
Great efforts man!!! Thank you so much❤❤
Wow the Sweater from 8:06 looks amazing, I would love to get one for myself. Also great videos, keep it up ^^
A friend once told me that items of clothing either love you or they don't. If you find an item that loves you, wear it til it falls apart because you'll be guaranteed to be totally comfortable that way. It's the only fashion advice I've ever followed.
I love the placement of the 'X' and 'checkmark' in your thumbnail to this video. Oh my!😁😂
You’re the best Tim.
Just found your channel, the second definitely help me a lot!
bro i think you should upload weekly. we are obsessed with your content
Cheers TIm 👌 the principle about dressing for your lifestyle is a key one, especially as you get older and your life changes. Also definitely need those last 5 rules to keep the spending slow and real 😅😅 very useful vid!
I love your aesthetic! It really fits my style in my 40s
I'm a major homebody but i like to "dress to impress" when i go out.
I like to leave an impression
absolute huge help. thanks tim!
If only I had this video 10 years ago 😢😂! Great work as always Tim.. Ps, table tennis rematch needed soon 😂!
Let’s do it 🏓
I did make the mistake to buy clothes that I weren't fully comfortable with and didn't thought about what items would fit with the clothes I just bought many times before. Especially the comfort problem is what I can completely relate to out of the things you mentioned in this video.
8:25 that's what I did....
I could have buy 3-4 jackets but I thinked carefully and save some more money and bought a $600 jacket... I am in love with it
comprehensive and well explained . Thanks Tim
Quality content. Love this channel.
all of this was great. i find it interesting that light-to-heavy is right-to-left in my head
also dont let someone else influence you too much. i spent so much money on clothes i bought because a friend (or even worse my mom) liked them/told me they’d look good on me. most of the time i end up not liking and therefore not wearing those pieces. but i also can’t get rid of them because i dont want to hurt anyones feelings (still working on that haha).
Well said 📌.
Thanks for the Tips 😌💯
a little late on this one but great advice on this video as always keep up the good work tim!
This vid made me realize i have to declutter my clothes cause i dont wear half of them and im currently struggling on how to manage every piece of clothing and finding good pieces to wear.
Many places have a public donation bin accessible a few minutes from their house. It's super easy for me to get rid of any clothes I don't want and even gives me peace of mind that shirts that are still in good condition for wearing are going to people who can use it.
always like a chill video!
Congratulations on 1 million
I struggle most with letting stuff go. I always keep old worn out clothing for wearing around the house or getting dirty. But, it’s to the point I have little room for new clothing
subscribed for life. this one video man. all I need to say.
in my early 30s finally discovering what last and truely suits me if only i knew also in my 20s lol its amazing how at 20 i really didnt think much about fasion outside of brands and going to the mall.
very clear video, thanks Tim❤
Those tips are great man, thank you
