    ❤️Hi there, I'm Eileen. As a luxury minimalist, I always try to maximise the value of my closet. For me, there's nothing more satisfying than using what I own, and owning what I use. Ps: as our collections pile up, we sometimes forget things are supposed to be used and enjoyed, so let's build a realistic wardrobe together xx

    Upon cleaning out my Moms house after her passing, I found items I gave her, never used😢
    It’s sad because I gave her those things to enjoy!
    I totally believe in utilizing what I have no matter how expensive because I also “pay” for it with decreased price per wear.
    I’d rather have fewer nice things that I wear repeatedly so I really appreciate the content that you share💝

      Sorry to hear that! I agree with you 100%, things are meant to be enjoyed. I recently read a book and the author says how his grandmother spent thousands on a leather sofa, but even on her last day, the sofa was still covered in plastic coating-- she wouldn't let anyone sit on it without. It made me think about the topic xx

      @@ColourfulNoir That’s so common, especially with people who came from low income families🙈My Mom was pretty poor as a child.
      It’s understandable because they carry fear of not being able to replace things, but we truly must transcend those “lack vibrations” & lean into gratitude.
      More often than not we have everything we need💝
      I still ask myself WHY I want something before I purchase it. Like what is the story I am telling myself this item will bring to my life. That’s why I love that you talk about being realistic regarding our lifestyle so that we have very few “special occasion” things that sit rarely utilized✌️
      Thank you for your work that helps to keep us mindful in relation to our things💝🙏

    As Always..You've given us True Words of Wisdom! One of the things about learning to live less Stressed & Caring more for our Health is to really consider not only cost, (can the money be better used elsewhere) but where you will put it, the amount of space it will take up, the maintenance of it (is it washable or does it need dry cleaned? etc) is it practical, will it suit my personality, will it look good on me, is it the colors I've chosen as my flattering colors, many things should be taken into consideration! Considering these kinds of things stops compulsive spending, completely!
    You are looking so good since you took your leave of absence! You look less stressed & more relaxed & rested! I think you enjoying your little recliner chair, cozy blanket & your reader with a hot cup of Tea is just the RX you needed! Especially after surgery! I hope that it will work out for you to be at home more & not have to get back into "The Rat Race" again! Cheers!🌷😊🌷🇺🇸

    Hi Eileen greetings from Melbourne. Every time you post a lovely vlog, I pick up something new and I can't wait to finally have everything all together to sort through and make changes. At the end of 23 my life is going to change significantly, I'm retiring and going to start a large house renovation so my everyday attire is going be construction boots and hi vis. I have so many classic pieces that are begging to see the light but are packed away ready for shipping. I can't wait to get home and apply All your lessons learned. Ps I love all your super organised draws I presume your inserts came from Ikea? Have a lovely week and I look forward to your next vlog.😊❤👩‍💼

    Precisely! My sister and I were at the point we felt we had nothing to wear and the wardrobes overflowing. It takes time, thinking and intentionality to compose a wardrobe. I‘ve learn’t that a little late in life but now getting out of the house and be prepared for all situations that come in life is easier.

    I forgot to comment on your previous video about you taking an break from work. I’m a fellow dentist and so pleased for you that you’ve found the space, stability and courage to take a break, however long it is for. You’re a person before a job title and taking time to enjoy your personal life is so crucial to living well. I took about 18months off after having our son and have gone back to work in a different capacity and role. It’s so energising now because I feel like I’m growing again.
    Wishing you a happy and growthful time during your break 😊

    No Storage: A good Minimal Wardrobe (with few exceptions) is year round layers. Tanks & Tees of summer are Camisol/ base layer for winter. Cosy winter sweater is topper for cool summer evenings. Parka & sandals being some exceptions Great vidi

    I go back to Longchamp time & time again! I love the zippered expandable totes with the shoulder straps. They’re harder to find but Nordstrom often did an exclusive one! I put a solid base shaper into mine & love them more that way.
    I also love the MZ Wallace bags, especially the backpack, tote & bum bag styles. They’ve performed beautifully for me & they’re very low key with a very minimal logo.
    Have you had experience with MZ Wallace?

    My problem is that my lifestyle or rather my deep desire is more 19th century than now. I could spend millions on wedding like princess dresses. I had so much fun during pandemic, evening gowns, heels etc. But I also spent a fortune in 2020🤣 I definitely should be on a red carpet all the time😆😅
