Hi Ingrid! OG subscriber here (like 7 years !). I adore you, always have, always will - even though I'm one of those subscribers who rarely comments, but I feel like this is important. My comment is coming from a deep place of respect and love and appreciation for all the things you've taught me and showed me and inspired me with over the years. I gotta be honest, I've been feeling quite underwhelmed by the recent content. I feel like you're (probably rightfully so) very guarded about your day-to-day life and world. This tour was a combination of closely shot spaces with no overview of the place, we haven't had a career or life update: how are you actually doing? I've regretfully been skipping some of your recent videos because I feel like I haven't gotten any real oomph or depth from you. Again using that word but you seem incredibly guarded, and it's become harder and harder to feel connected to you and what you're creating. I don't know, might just be me, but you feel far away and disconnected right now, and I hope you still enjoying doing this. Big big hug from Toronto x
F Dombrowski I feel much the same. In my opinion, Ingrid is such a bright spark with so much intelligence, creativity and potential. But I just don’t see her having a space in UA-cam anymore. I wish she would move into more traditional media or pursue something different in media, advertising, or something else entirely. I feel like one is either ‘in’ UA-cam - committed to the intimacy of sharing oneself and one’s life - or they aren’t. But Ingrid has been trying to straddle this line of sharing and withholding, of creating these highly stylised and sterile videos that can look pretty but feel so lacking in depth, that I feel a bit sad watching them.
I feel the same, only appears doing sponsored video, repetitive, no joy, nothing new ... I miss the genial, spontaneous girl who use to do the best podcast: /
Is it just me , or could anyone figure out the layout of the place ? I have no idea how the place actually looks 🙈 But I'm sure , all these great pieces must look gorgeous together :)
I think it is for privacy. It would be fairly easy to figure out where this is considering that generally Brooklyn has small apartments and this in a newer larger apartment. I live in the area she lives in and the apartments are very unique and searchable.
xxYanexx totally agree! Also, a lot of this was already shown through her stories on IG. TBH, I still watched it because I am nosey and like seeing what people have.
It's sad how Ingrid has more than 3M subscribers but her views doesn't even go higher than 300k. She is the very first UA-camr I watched and liked. Her relatable personality is what I used to love. But I'm just sad. I don't watch her videos anymore lately because I don't feel the same love and connection. Take a break, Ingrid. It's okay. We miss your cheerful personality.
Watching Ingrid ever since her first year on UA-cam I always get a bittersweet feeling whenever she uploads. I remember her first apartment and how in love I was with it that I wanted to find a similar one(havent got any apartment at all myself). I remember nugget first days and the apartments that came after-or at least the ones we got to see. So I was very happy to see this video but realizing how much the UA-cam community and content has changed in general, how much criticism you might get for anything you post, how much more careful of yourself you've got to be.. it makes me sad. Also I'm realizing how much time has passed and I feel so old. So so old. Lol
Me too! I actually get really bummed out now when I watch her videos, but because I have been watching for SO LONG, I can't bear to stop. I probably should, though. I live in NYC, and this kind of content ends with me putting unfair pressure on myself to live this kind of lifestyle and question myself mercilessly "why isn't my apartment bigger?" "Why don't I make more money?" even though I do quite well already. I miss the days when my favorite youtubers were relatable, and I think thats something I need to let go of, because it is absurd for me (and for most of us) to demand of myself (ourselves) the same lifestyle of a millionaire who is part of the 1% (which is great for her! She has worked so hard!). Ugh, idk. Social media, man...
queeneva3 Your comment is so spot-on that it made my heart hurt because you placed my feelings into words. UA-cam has changed so much that it's depressing, and if you didn't change your content to match the "new UA-cam" then your channel got left behind in the dust. So many channels that have millions of subscribers get hardly any views or ads to help them make money. I wish we could go back to UA-cam 6+ years ago. I feel SO old now thinking about how many years have actually passed since the old UA-cam was around.
Love you Ingrid, always have. The reason I’ve become such a fan is because I felt so connected with you. I get why ur secretive about a lot of things since ur name has became so popular, just really miss that closeness u had with ur fans. Sometimes I feel like I’m watching a spokesperson :( still love and support you but just wanted to say that..
I agree.... I'll bet your apartment is beautiful. Allow the viewer to take the entire room in, rather than to just look at tiny little bits. Take a step back and let us see the big picture!
Worst apartment tour ever. "Here's my apartment. Look at my fork." You showed nothing. How about some wide angles? If you don't want people to see, WHY MAKE THE VIDEO??
Smiley Jpg okay jake Paul and Shane Dawson does it for views... she trying to pay her bills... she’s an OG youtuber she’s been doing this for YEARS.. don’t think it’s for the views
I think in your effort to have more of a balance between your private/public life, you’ve lost your sense of being relatable. I get not wanting to fully share your space but you’ve become so detached from your audience that is almost just feels like one giant commercial for the products you have in your apartment.
I feel like it's a really sanitized version of her personality. Like if someone were running for office, this is the version you would see of them online. No vulnerability or connection. I get that for some people it is difficult to open up, but viewers come to UA-cam to connect with the people they watch.
It's interesting because I've found Ingrid's stories on Instagram much more relatable than her UA-cam content, even though she's uploading videos on both platforms.
yeah this is why i actually unsubbed a few years ago. i felt like it was repetitive and i decided to check out her channel to see what she was up too and i can totally see where you are coming from as i am assuming a current viewer. i'm kind of disappointed to be honest because she used to be SO relatable and funny to watch, seems watered down now. idk her current situation thought if something happened in her life or what not, but i hope she is doing okay.
I love Ingrid, but I have to agree. Apartment/house tours are my absolute favorite videos to watch, but we hardly got to see any of the actual decor. And she's always done nice tours in the past. Just kinda disappointing. :( I don't know what would be in a house that would be so personal you don't want to show it? I mean, aside from like... sex toys...which would probably be safely hidden in a drawer any way, hahaha! ;P
I appreciate the idea of having your phone away from your bed, for sleep. But I recommend placing it away from the front door. If an intruder comes in the front door they are at an immense advantage with you being unprepared and now also without a phone. Consider the phone in maybe the bathroom near your room or in a more hidden area outside of the bedroom. Just food for thought. Love the space and your positive attitude
This was so painful to watch :( This zooming in made me feel a bit sick :P I get that u dont want to show ur apartment, but then either dont make a video or call the video " What i own" :P
CallMeCarolyn if it made you so sick, why did you watch? I guess it’s easier to complain about things these days than it is to hold your own self accountable for what you choose to do/watch!
Southerncharmed 411 well she was right though, she’s just giving a feedback. So if somehow ingrid decided to make another apartment video, it’d be better... Relax
I used to love your videos Ingrid and I understand that for privacy reasons you don't want to show the whole apartment layout but all this excessive zooming/focus gave me a headache! :(
this is not an apartment tour. It's a "things" tour😶 if you want to keep your spaces private then don't do apartment tour period😑 just watched this halfway and clicked out. Waste of time🤷🏻♀️
Personally, I LOVED this style of apartment tour. It felt raw and messy and just fresh. It wasn’t super saturated or overly energetic to the point of feeling fake, like a lot of videos are now. It was a good change of pace, and felt more relatable in a lot of ways, because although the products and space themselves are probably high end and expensive, it wasn’t complete, and it just felt natural and human. The place is beautiful, Ingrid, and i love seeing you so happy in this new chapter of your life. I can’t wait to see how the final product turns out!!
So much for an apartment tour! Don’t think I even saw the apartment but I did see flowers, counter tops, coffee maker, frigid, couch, some nick nacks, and the toilets. If safety is an issue don’t tease an apartment tour. Just do a “You want to see a stuff tour”.
This was.... an awkward video. I was hoping for so much more. You showed us a door knob..... It doesn't feel connected. I didn't get the feeling of connecting with you. You have become more closed off from you subscribers and we miss it. That is why we watch....
you know some you tubers have stalkers know??????????? I wouldn't wanna show my full house layout so that people could come in and find me....... some people are hacked out crazy and you never know what they're gonna do... and she's not even done decorating
How can someone find you by showing the INSIDE of your house? She didn't have to show the entrance or the view of the neighborhood. Hundreds of youtubers do house tours that actually show the house and had no problems with stalkers.
you don't know that !!!! and I've watched and I'm subscribed to a few people who have had stalkers...... and some people are mad smart and have WAY too much time on their hands..... you don't know, regardless of your comment,,, at the end of the day she's allowed to do whatever she's wants, I respect her decision, people today are CRAZY just take Christina grimmie for example.... crazy...
@@joseeriichard I agree that she may want more privacy, but in that case she didn't need to make a house tour video if she didn't want to show her house.
This is huge for an NYC apartment, great space but this must cost a fortune! I also agree with comments about not really seeing the place, just close shots of her stuff.....
Chris Carrillo hahaha it’s like “hi guys come see the junk I have in my apartment at the moment”... zero inspiration, zero organization... yea not cool lol
I know NYC apartments are typically small, so it may not have been possible to back up more or give us a better bigger picture, but I really prefer tours where they don’t cut the in-between walking or at least so a brief walkthrough in the beginning before showing us each room... to me it makes it less confusing about where each room is. A lot of this vid was filmed super close up instead. Just my personal preference :) but thank you for sharing this with us! The place looks beautiful from what I can tell!
I think I understand why she didn’t show the full floor plan. I know one of the Fowler sisters had people showing up to her condo a few years back. They found out where she lived by searching the floor plan online after she did a condo tour video. This filming style let us see the main feel, and awesomeness,of Ingrid’s apartment but keeps her safe.
elffan414 Damn! That’s gangsta!!! You can find someone by floor plan like that?! You’re making me reconsider doing a house tour for my channel! That’s crazy! That sounds scary af😬 UA-cam: LoveLaRieXO💕
James Og I would think that the A list celebrities who show off their houses live in gated communities, or they have full-time security. I’m sure there where many reasons Ingrid filmed the video like this, I just remembered the Fowler sisters condo thing and thought it might apply here.
That was a really bad apartment tour, don't actually have any idea of what the apartment looks like. I suggest renaming this video to maybe something like "little glimpses of my new apartment". It'd be great if you're looking for furniture ideas, but yeah for interior design or layout interests its not good at all.
That's all I could think about, but considering the locations she lived in LA it may be comparable to her rent here. I hope she invests well, but I'm thinking she must.
UA-cam! You tubers get like $1-5 per 1,000 views and she gets millions per video so do the math! Plus ads also provide income as well as speaking engagements and ad sponsors for products! She’s also an ambassador for brands which also brings in income!
I'm not a subscriber to you, but I love watching you from time to time. I really liked this apartment tour, I hope my comment gives you positivity in this storm of negative comments. Such as beautiful space and I loved your calming voice describing it all, love xxxx
I was a huge fan of Ingrid's vlogging channel back when she had moved into her cute little 1 bedroom apartment in Santa Monica. Her tours and other content were so entertaining! Eventually she changed, which is understandable - people grow and change all of the time. Her videos now just seem cold, like she no longer enjoys making videos. I could be totally wrong though, and I wish her so much happiness in New York! I check back in every year or so, hopefully one day the spark will return.
Thank you so much, Ingrid! This was so much more than an apartment tour. I love getting a glimpse into your home and learning ideas about how you live that help me essentialize and cultivate my own style. You are such an inspiring, soothing presence in my life. And also, I've been watching you say for years how much you love and appreciate New York and it is immensely rewarding for me to see your dream realized so elegantly. Love you tons.
It is so nice to have your own place and put in it the things you love, I call that a home. My mom lives with me and it is really hard to have things the way you want them when there's another person who keeps changing it. Enjoy it, glad it makes you happy.
Please make more vlogs and videos about some of your favorite NYC spots!! It feels like you rarely show us anything outside of the confines of you apartment!
I love how real this was instead of being all glossy and perfect. It doesn't bother me at all that I can't figure out the layout because I like the glimpses that I saw.
You are very lucky. The finishes of your apartment, from the door knobs, the bathroom fixtures, the marble backsplash, and the Gagneau fridge all indicate that this is not exactly a typical apartment. I hope you are enjoying it and are deserving of it which you seem to be.
So much negativity in the comment section.. I will be probably the first person to say that I actually liked this video :) I don't care if you show the room as a whole and then more in detail, or if you focus just on the details for whatever reason (privcy or your apartment not being completely finished).. I like the style of the video and the feel I get from it, and I completely understand your decision to show your apartment this way :) You are the one who is making the video so it's up to you how much you want us to see :) Nonetheless, if you are willing to, I would like to see another apartment tour once you are settled in and everything is in its place :) Thank you for this video, Ingrid, and I'm looking forward for another one :)
Such a beautiful apartment! Your new attitude towards perfection, mindfulness and patience is considerable and definitely a good example for everyone. I would love to see some videos about the rooms decoration process, like the before and after videos you mentioned on instagram! I wish you all the best in your new home ❤
Hi Ingrid! Beautiful appartement! I noticed that you have the Swiffer and just wanted to say that in Germany (I live there) there used to be several cases where pets have died from the chemicals of the tissues by Swiffer simply by licking theirs paws. I would recommend you to not use there tissues but use a more natural detergent from an irganic brand to clean your floors. Best wishes :)
At the cat rescue where I volunteer we clean everything with one part household bleach to 32 parts water. It's diluted enough to be safe but strong enough to kill things like ringworm, etc. I would recommend that solution to anyone who has pets and wants a really clean house.
I can't believe people are actually complaining about your video........ I wouldn't wanna show the FULL layout of my place so the whole world could see either, people today are crazy you never know what they're gonna do........and I LOVE your apartment xo
I’m so frustrated with this video. What’s with all the close ups and attention to details that don’t matter to the majority of us😫 the apartments seems to be really pretty but I cANT SEE
Itsya Girl ok you cannot “peer pressure” any UA-camr to spend hours making a whole fucking video, and then spend more hours editing and uploading it. That’s not a thing that happens. And FYI I’m not even a big fan of Ingrid, I wasn’t dying for a apt tour vid. But I saw this and remembered the first 2 NYC apt tour videos she made and thought, “oh maybe this would be what it says it is just like last time: a fucking Apartment Tour video.”
only reason why I'm saying this is cause I see so much hurt in her eyes I used to watch her years ago when she first started and she just looks so depressed now and I don't blame her, her whole comment section is filled with negative comments as if its gonna ruin their whole day like.. people are dying........
I was going to say the same thing. The first thing I thought was, “if someone broke in while she was sleeping she wouldn’t be able to call 911 and theyd also know she was home because the phone and keys are right there”
Probably her building has a porter and a lobby with a reception area, she has the money to live in a very secure building. This is not the usual anyone can walk up to the elevator and go up and knock on anybody's door.
Also, just wanted to say. I was having a really frustrating day at work and when you said, "I want to show you the calm/beauty of a work in progress," that really resonated with me
You have a really nice apartment. I like the decor. I was just watching an old video of yours when u moved into your first apartment when u first got Nugget and hung out with Joey.
I love how you showed an in-progress tour. Moving is so hectic so I appreciate that you showed what your space looks like as you are getting settled rather than showing it once it was picture perfect. Good luck getting everything unpacked and settled!
I really love that you choose to show the flat slightly unfinished, it's a great reminder that homes are for living and can be messy! Looks super pretty too
Wow, your kitchen is so warm and inviting. I think my dream kitchen now. The wood cabinets just speak to me somehow... love that you share the actual state of your home, something we can all relate to. I’m someone who takes time to settle in and get things situated the way I like them to be so I can appreciate that you’re getting it done but not putting pressure on yourself for it to be “perfect” right away by some people’s standards.
Wow! My apartment in FiDi is 900 sq feet closet and feels like a dump compared to this. Lol! I wonder where she got such a spacious apartment here in the city. I'm assuming she's probably in Brooklyn. Nice place and I'm so jealous of that fridge.
Oh, Ingrid! I'm so glad you were able to move cross-country with your dad's painting. When I moved to the West Coast a year ago, I had to leave my mother's paintings behind with family. Did the movers pack them in a special way, or did you ship them?
Wow! Not one positive comment. I am so surprised! I am just thankful that you opened up your home to us. Again, I look forward to the inner growth you are going through and hope you can continue to live a life filled with mindfulness and joy.
Your penthouse looks beautiful. I love the look of the wood grain tones and marble back splashes. It looks like such a nice luxurious space. Congrats Ingrid on your new place and hope it brings you lots of joy. I love New York and it’s architecture. Oh and the pizza to. I hope to revisit Brooklyn area again soon.
This is a silly question, but where did you get your slippers from? 🤣 I recently also moved into a new apartment with the hardest hardwood floors and so I'm definitely in the market for a pair! 😊
Congrats and welcome to NYC! Love that you are sharing the work in progress. I live in Manhattan and I’m so jealous of your washer dryer and amaaaaazing fridge! Lol
This was NOT an apartment tour?! It was like weird zoom ins on certain products that happen to be in your apartment but as the background beyond the products was mostly super blurry I have no actual concept of your apartment - layout etc?
It’s totally fine not wanting to show your place, the place you live in because it’s private for you and that’s ok . But then do not make a video called apartment tour of you are just going t show us your stuff. But I’m really glad you love your place
I never comment but I really appreciate this. I just made a big move myself & thought that I had to buy all of these things to complete it. And this just helped me realize that I don't need to do that. I can take my time. Love the apartment Ingrid!
Ive been watching you since I was in middle school (im in 4th year university now) you honestly were one of the youtubers who inspired me to create my own youtube channel! wishing you all the best xo
I hardly thinking giving an overview of each individual room would give away the floor plan enough to allow creeps to locate where she lives. This was pretty frustrating to watch - just a montage of tight frame product shots. If you want your space to remain so private, why make an “apartment tour” video at all
Hey Ingrid, I understand why you did not show your whole apartment, but maybe you could have done individual room tours. That way the clips would not be so zoomed in (which was kind of uncomfortable to watch), but you could still retain some privacy by not having to show every room or hallway. Also! Will you be doing a video about the process of moving? like more a sit down one talking about finding an apartment, boroughs, movers all that stuff? It might be helpful to a lot of people moving from far, especially because it kinda looks like you pulled it off well, so I would love tips :)
Just watched a 20 minute apartment tour but still have no idea how the place actually looks like xD

Both of you are spot on. Nothing more to add.
same
well said. Sterile is the word.
I feel the same, only appears doing sponsored video, repetitive, no joy, nothing new ... I miss the genial, spontaneous girl who use to do the best podcast: /
Is it just me , or could anyone figure out the layout of the place ? I have no idea how the place actually looks 🙈
But I'm sure , all these great pieces must look gorgeous together :)
Agree! I wanted to see wider shots to get a better feel of it.
That was probably on purpose.
This is probably safer though, correct? I’m sure she would appreciate some of the privacy that not showing everything would give her ;)
I think it is for privacy. It would be fairly easy to figure out where this is considering that generally Brooklyn has small apartments and this in a newer larger apartment. I live in the area she lives in and the apartments are very unique and searchable.
Yeah I was very confused about the layout - especially when I saw the stairs down to the bedroom. Killer space regardless
“Here’s the door handle” 🤷🏻♀️🙃
I meannnnn.....this isn't an apartment tour kind of just here is a few things in random places where I live
Cate M I agree
This is more of a what I have in my apartment tour than an actual apartment tour
xxYanexx as she mentioned, she wanted to keep certain spaces private as to protect the sacredness of them! ☺️
Jackie QB Wel that and someone could probably figure out her apartment location by the layout. People do that all the time.
xxYanexx totally agree! Also, a lot of this was already shown through her stories on IG. TBH, I still watched it because I am nosey and like seeing what people have.
true
Worst tour ever!!! 😞
Cute apartment!! I wish we would have been able to see more of the layout though, but for privacy reasons I totally understand
Madie Hart it was so close up and with the background blurred it hurt my eyes at times haha
I was very hard for me to don’t get dizzy watching the camera going up and down.
Same. I'm kind of thinking all her other videos she's had help filming and now she's doing it solo so maybe that could explain part of the problem.
I appreciate the need for privacy, but I wanted an apartment tour, not a ‘things I own’ tour. Still here for it though ❤️
That's not a cute apartment. It's a huge apartment by NYC standards. Wow. Congrats, Ingrid. It's beautiful.
It's sad how Ingrid has more than 3M subscribers but her views doesn't even go higher than 300k. She is the very first UA-camr I watched and liked. Her relatable personality is what I used to love. But I'm just sad. I don't watch her videos anymore lately because I don't feel the same love and connection. Take a break, Ingrid. It's okay. We miss your cheerful personality.
Her views don't go higher than 70-80k unless it's a tour. Sad.
Everything is so zoomed in
she just filmed with the wrong lens for sure.
Watching Ingrid ever since her first year on UA-cam I always get a bittersweet feeling whenever she uploads. I remember her first apartment and how in love I was with it that I wanted to find a similar one(havent got any apartment at all myself).

queeneva3 I remember when she moved in her apartment in California! Remember the pillow pet Pandadeep ? I love 🐼
I get so sad when I watch her with Tayto and remember Nugget!
Me too! I actually get really bummed out now when I watch her videos, but because I have been watching for SO LONG, I can't bear to stop. I probably should, though. I live in NYC, and this kind of content ends with me putting unfair pressure on myself to live this kind of lifestyle and question myself mercilessly "why isn't my apartment bigger?"

That's exactly how I feel :(
Seems more of a product / object tour rather than an apartment tour.
that's what I thought
Me too
I was thinking exactly the same thing and I scroll down and there’s your comment bang on ! 😂
I agree.... I'll bet your apartment is beautiful. Allow the viewer to take the entire room in, rather than to just look at tiny little bits. Take a step back and let us see the big picture!
you're new here
you literally filmed a whole scene of the ground
Aw I’m kinda disappointed. I was really looking forward to seeing a tour, but you really just showed us the items in the apartment. Still cute though.
Worst apartment tour ever. "Here's my apartment. Look at my fork." You showed nothing. How about some wide angles? If you don't want people to see, WHY MAKE THE VIDEO??
The Art Of War omg that’s soooo true!!
3.8 million people watching you....... wOuld you want them to know how to get into your apartment??
Itsya Girl then she shouldn’t be making the video in the first place if she’s worried about that. She just wants views and money that’s it.
seriously. it would’ve been better to just not do it.
Smiley Jpg okay jake Paul and Shane Dawson does it for views... she trying to pay her bills... she’s an OG youtuber she’s been doing this for YEARS.. don’t think it’s for the views

You could have just left without leaving a comment but you couldn't help yourself
CallMeCarolyn if it made you so sick, why did you watch? I guess it’s easier to complain about things these days than it is to hold your own self accountable for what you choose to do/watch!
Agreed
Southerncharmed 411 well she was right though, she’s just giving a feedback. So if somehow ingrid decided to make another apartment video, it’d be better... Relax
this is the most materialistic tour i ever watched
Wish I saw more of the apartment. You mostly showed zoomed in clips of things you have in the apartment.
@Jack-William Barotta what the hell why cant someone just take criticism 🙄🙄
I used to love your videos Ingrid and I understand that for privacy reasons you don't want to show the whole apartment layout but all this excessive zooming/focus gave me a headache! :(
this is not an apartment tour. It's a "things" tour😶 if you want to keep your spaces private then don't do apartment tour period😑 just watched this halfway and clicked out. Waste of time🤷🏻♀️
gem ferrer exactly
Personally, I LOVED this style of apartment tour. It felt raw and messy and just fresh. It wasn’t super saturated or overly energetic to the point of feeling fake, like a lot of videos are now. It was a good change of pace, and felt more relatable in a lot of ways, because although the products and space themselves are probably high end and expensive, it wasn’t complete, and it just felt natural and human. The place is beautiful, Ingrid, and i love seeing you so happy in this new chapter of your life. I can’t wait to see how the final product turns out!!
I still have no clue what your apartment looks like, but nice floor.
So much for an apartment tour! Don’t think I even saw the apartment but I did see flowers, counter tops, coffee maker, frigid, couch, some nick nacks, and the toilets. If safety is an issue don’t tease an apartment tour. Just do a “You want to see a stuff tour”.
and the newspaper don't forget the newspaper!
This was.... an awkward video. I was hoping for so much more. You showed us a door knob..... It doesn't feel connected. I didn't get the feeling of connecting with you. You have become more closed off from you subscribers and we miss it. That is why we watch....
you know some you tubers have stalkers know??????????? I wouldn't wanna show my full house layout so that people could come in and find me....... some people are hacked out crazy and you never know what they're gonna do... and she's not even done decorating
How rude!
How can someone find you by showing the INSIDE of your house? She didn't have to show the entrance or the view of the neighborhood. Hundreds of youtubers do house tours that actually show the house and had no problems with stalkers.
you don't know that !!!! and I've watched and I'm subscribed to a few people who have had stalkers...... and some people are mad smart and have WAY too much time on their hands..... you don't know, regardless of your comment,,, at the end of the day she's allowed to do whatever she's wants, I respect her decision, people today are CRAZY just take Christina grimmie for example.... crazy...
@@joseeriichard I agree that she may want more privacy, but in that case she didn't need to make a house tour video if she didn't want to show her house.
This was a horrible apartment tour. Everything is so closeup . Nobody knows what your apartment looks like
All of her apartment tours seem to be like this.
Just watched this now but so rude. Your a horrible person if you comment this kind of stuff. Spread kindness instead of hating on people.
This is huge for an NYC apartment, great space but this must cost a fortune! I also agree with comments about not really seeing the place, just close shots of her stuff.....
Chris Carrillo hahaha it’s like “hi guys come see the junk I have in my apartment at the moment”... zero inspiration, zero organization... yea not cool lol
Less of an “apartment tour”. It was more of a ”here’s what I own” tour
Kinda click-batey because that is hardly a tour. More so, “Things in my NY apartment”
Brittany Michelle Or more so just an Ad for things. Sad
A big chunk of this was a "what's in my fridge" video, and I am HERE FOR THAT
I know NYC apartments are typically small, so it may not have been possible to back up more or give us a better bigger picture, but I really prefer tours where they don’t cut the in-between walking or at least so a brief walkthrough in the beginning before showing us each room... to me it makes it less confusing about where each room is. A lot of this vid was filmed super close up instead. Just my personal preference :) but thank you for sharing this with us! The place looks beautiful from what I can tell!
Fallon Moore , with the huge custom fridge, I doubt this is a typical tiny NY apartment.
I don’t think it is a small apartment, as she has three bathrooms.
That is not a house tour.this the "what objects/furnitures i have in my house"
Really hard to watch actually, including the filming quality
I think I understand why she didn’t show the full floor plan. I know one of the Fowler sisters had people showing up to her condo a few years back. They found out where she lived by searching the floor plan online after she did a condo tour video. This filming style let us see the main feel, and awesomeness,of Ingrid’s apartment but keeps her safe.
elffan414 Damn! That’s gangsta!!! You can find someone by floor plan like that?! You’re making me reconsider doing a house tour for my channel! That’s crazy! That sounds scary af😬
UA-cam: LoveLaRieXO💕
She always showed her other apartments
LoveLaRieXO I would think if you filmed it in segments it would be okay, ie show the rooms just not what floor they are on.
1stepcl0ser It’s entirely possible that I’m comply wrong. That she is just waiting till it was completed to done to do a full tour.🤷♀️
James Og I would think that the A list celebrities who show off their houses live in gated communities, or they have full-time security. I’m sure there where many reasons Ingrid filmed the video like this, I just remembered the Fowler sisters condo thing and thought it might apply here.
That was a really bad apartment tour, don't actually have any idea of what the apartment looks like. I suggest renaming this video to maybe something like "little glimpses of my new apartment". It'd be great if you're looking for furniture ideas, but yeah for interior design or layout interests its not good at all.
That shot of Tayto running toward you is the cutest thing I've ever seen.
I probably don't wanna know how much an appartment of this size in NYC costs.
That's all I could think about, but considering the locations she lived in LA it may be comparable to her rent here. I hope she invests well, but I'm thinking she must.
I’m guessing over $5,000 a month. 🙃
How does she make money ??
NYC+3 bathrooms + big kitchen + laundry room = $$$$$$
UA-cam! You tubers get like $1-5 per 1,000 views and she gets millions per video so do the math! Plus ads also provide income as well as speaking engagements and ad sponsors for products! She’s also an ambassador for brands which also brings in income!
Um, we barely see the actual apartment. What's the purpose of this video? Basically you uploaded a video just for views & money.
This video should be called “sponsor products in my NYC apartment “ 😕
I'm not a subscriber to you, but I love watching you from time to time. I really liked this apartment tour, I hope my comment gives you positivity in this storm of negative comments. Such as beautiful space and I loved your calming voice describing it all, love xxxx
Wow. Your apartment looks so nice and even a bit high end and large for a manhatten apartment. Must be expensive to rent.
I was a huge fan of Ingrid's vlogging channel back when she had moved into her cute little 1 bedroom apartment in Santa Monica. Her tours and other content were so entertaining! Eventually she changed, which is understandable - people grow and change all of the time. Her videos now just seem cold, like she no longer enjoys making videos. I could be totally wrong though, and I wish her so much happiness in New York! I check back in every year or so, hopefully one day the spark will return.
Thank you so much, Ingrid! This was so much more than an apartment tour. I love getting a glimpse into your home and learning ideas about how you live that help me essentialize and cultivate my own style. You are such an inspiring, soothing presence in my life. And also, I've been watching you say for years how much you love and appreciate New York and it is immensely rewarding for me to see your dream realized so elegantly. Love you tons.
It is so nice to have your own place and put in it the things you love, I call that a home. My mom lives with me and it is really hard to have things the way you want them when there's another person who keeps changing it. Enjoy it, glad it makes you happy.
Please make more vlogs and videos about some of your favorite NYC spots!! It feels like you rarely show us anything outside of the confines of you apartment!
We didn't really get to see "the space" you talk about at the end :/ just kind of a bunch of stuff
I love how real this was instead of being all glossy and perfect. It doesn't bother me at all that I can't figure out the layout because I like the glimpses that I saw.
You are my spirit animal and I totally get how this is done. I respect the whole privacy thing and the fact it's not fully moved in and decorated 👏
Your welcoming personality hasn’t changed in 5 years l love you!💜
What does the living room look like, a blurry kitchen, bedroom? We only saw the bathroom? What's with all the close ups?
You are very lucky. The finishes of your apartment, from the door knobs, the bathroom fixtures, the marble backsplash, and the Gagneau fridge all indicate that this is not exactly a typical apartment. I hope you are enjoying it and are deserving of it which you seem to be.
So much negativity in the comment section.. I will be probably the first person to say that I actually liked this video :) I don't care if you show the room as a whole and then more in detail, or if you focus just on the details for whatever reason (privcy or your apartment not being completely finished).. I like the style of the video and the feel I get from it, and I completely understand your decision to show your apartment this way :) You are the one who is making the video so it's up to you how much you want us to see :) Nonetheless, if you are willing to, I would like to see another apartment tour once you are settled in and everything is in its place :) Thank you for this video, Ingrid, and I'm looking forward for another one :)
Such a beautiful apartment! Your new attitude towards perfection, mindfulness and patience is considerable and definitely a good example for everyone.
I would love to see some videos about the rooms decoration process, like the before and after videos you mentioned on instagram!
I wish you all the best in your new home ❤
Hi Ingrid! Beautiful appartement! I noticed that you have the Swiffer and just wanted to say that in Germany (I live there) there used to be several cases where pets have died from the chemicals of the tissues by Swiffer simply by licking theirs paws. I would recommend you to not use there tissues but use a more natural detergent from an irganic brand to clean your floors. Best wishes :)
This! Be careful, it's happened here in the States as well.
At the cat rescue where I volunteer we clean everything with one part household bleach to 32 parts water. It's diluted enough to be safe but strong enough to kill things like ringworm, etc. I would recommend that solution to anyone who has pets and wants a really clean house.

I can't believe people are actually complaining about your video........
I wouldn't wanna show the FULL layout of my place so the whole world could see either, people today are crazy you never know what they're gonna do........and I LOVE your apartment xo
Love it, love it, love it! I totally have similar slippers, but mine aren't as nice and now I'm like... I need those slippers!! 💕
I’m so frustrated with this video. What’s with all the close ups and attention to details that don’t matter to the majority of us😫 the apartments seems to be really pretty but I cANT SEE
wanna know why?? with 3.8 MILLION PEOPLE watching you??? do you really want them to know how to get into your apartment
Itsya Girl then why film an Apartment TOUR in the first place? It’s pure click bait to get more views.
Sam maybe her “fans” peer pressured her and FLOODED her comments or dms with “omg plz film an apartment tour I’m dying for it”
Itsya Girl
ok you cannot “peer pressure” any UA-camr to spend hours making a whole fucking video, and then spend more hours editing and uploading it.
That’s not a thing that happens.
And FYI I’m not even a big fan of Ingrid, I wasn’t dying for a apt tour vid. But I saw this and remembered the first 2 NYC apt tour videos she made and thought, “oh maybe this would be what it says it is just like last time: a fucking Apartment Tour video.”
only reason why I'm saying this is cause I see so much hurt in her eyes I used to watch her years ago when she first started and she just looks so depressed now and I don't blame her, her whole comment section is filled with negative comments as if its gonna ruin their whole day like.. people are dying........
I’d keep your phone closer to you at night in case of an emergency! In my opinion.
Autumn Lininger great single female in the city tip!
I was going to say the same thing. The first thing I thought was, “if someone broke in while she was sleeping she wouldn’t be able to call 911 and theyd also know she was home because the phone and keys are right there”
Tea
@@TheSnowReport28 does her gf love with her? If she does she might have her phone closer
Probably her building has a porter and a lobby with a reception area, she has the money to live in a very secure building. This is not the usual anyone can walk up to the elevator and go up and knock on anybody's door.
Also, just wanted to say. I was having a really frustrating day at work and when you said, "I want to show you the calm/beauty of a work in progress," that really resonated with me
Oh my goodness the jeans rack is the best thing I've ever seen!!! Such a revelation! Thank you for that! 😍😍😍
You have a really nice apartment. I like the decor. I was just watching an old video of yours when u moved into your first apartment when u first got Nugget and hung out with Joey.
For the top shelf of the fridge, a lazy Susan makes it easier to reach items because nothing gets shoved to the back out of reach. Just spin and grab.
I love how you showed an in-progress tour. Moving is so hectic so I appreciate that you showed what your space looks like as you are getting settled rather than showing it once it was picture perfect. Good luck getting everything unpacked and settled!
Thanks so much for sharing your space with us. Looking forward to seeing more progress as you settle in.
your place is amazing 😍
I really love that you choose to show the flat slightly unfinished, it's a great reminder that homes are for living and can be messy! Looks super pretty too
The hanging mops and brooms .. great idea.. loved it
Wow, your kitchen is so warm and inviting. I think my dream kitchen now. The wood cabinets just speak to me somehow... love that you share the actual state of your home, something we can all relate to. I’m someone who takes time to settle in and get things situated the way I like them to be so I can appreciate that you’re getting it done but not putting pressure on yourself for it to be “perfect” right away by some people’s standards.
Sorry Ingrid this isn't an apartment tour. If you want more views title should match the content.
Sad. Seems like a beautiful apartment we didnt really get to see.
Aw I love Tayto's happy little wiggle at the end!
Pusheen! ❤️ Your dog is adorable. I want everything in your place! Thanks for sharing!
Wow! My apartment in FiDi is 900 sq feet closet and feels like a dump compared to this. Lol! I wonder where she got such a spacious apartment here in the city. I'm assuming she's probably in Brooklyn. Nice place and I'm so jealous of that fridge.
Oh, Ingrid! I'm so glad you were able to move cross-country with your dad's painting. When I moved to the West Coast a year ago, I had to leave my mother's paintings behind with family. Did the movers pack them in a special way, or did you ship them?
Wow! Not one positive comment. I am so surprised! I am just thankful that you opened up your home to us. Again, I look forward to the inner growth you are going through and hope you can continue to live a life filled with mindfulness and joy.
Your penthouse looks beautiful. I love the look of the wood grain tones and marble back splashes. It looks like such a nice luxurious space. Congrats Ingrid on your new place and hope it brings you lots of joy. I love New York and it’s architecture. Oh and the pizza to. I hope to revisit Brooklyn area again soon.
This is a silly question, but where did you get your slippers from? 🤣 I recently also moved into a new apartment with the hardest hardwood floors and so I'm definitely in the market for a pair! 😊
Me too. Would love to know where she purchased them.
I think I found them! Isotoner on amazon www.amazon.com/ISOTONER-Womens-Slipper-Outdoor-Comfort/dp/B00KYPPL14
That's them!
Ah! Thanks so much! :)
It’s nice but it’s doesn’t compare to the other apartment you had in nyc. That one was amazing. And the view!!!!
Congrats and welcome to NYC! Love that you are sharing the work in progress. I live in Manhattan and I’m so jealous of your washer dryer and amaaaaazing fridge! Lol
I love how you kept your room to yourself I love the sacred place you’ve made your room ! Awesome !!
This was NOT an apartment tour?! It was like weird zoom ins on certain products that happen to be in your apartment but as the background beyond the products was mostly super blurry I have no actual concept of your apartment - layout etc?
It’s totally fine not wanting to show your place, the place you live in because it’s private for you and that’s ok . But then do not make a video called apartment tour of you are just going t show us your stuff. But I’m really glad you love your place
It looks amazing!! Your decor is so cute!!
I never comment but I really appreciate this. I just made a big move myself & thought that I had to buy all of these things to complete it. And this just helped me realize that I don't need to do that. I can take my time. Love the apartment Ingrid!
Everything is so beautiful, your apartment, you and plants ..😍😍❤❤ more power to you Ingrid
Ive been watching you since I was in middle school (im in 4th year university now) you honestly were one of the youtubers who inspired me to create my own youtube channel! wishing you all the best xo
That kitchen... amazing 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Beautiful space Ingrid! Wow that fridge is pretty awesome too! I'm so happy you guys look super happy in NY 😊🐕💕
I love how artsy it looks ❤️
This was like a 20 minute multi-branded ad. No house, no tour. Just stuff mega zoomed. Im Super dizzy now.
You have such a calming presence. Thank you for sharing your space with us
I’m so happy to see you so happy! This move seems so perfect for you, so perfect for your journey. Enjoy it all
I hardly thinking giving an overview of each individual room would give away the floor plan enough to allow creeps to locate where she lives. This was pretty frustrating to watch - just a montage of tight frame product shots. If you want your space to remain so private, why make an “apartment tour” video at all
Apparently it happened to one of the Fowler sisters a few years back from showing off thier condo
What a perfect space 🙌💗😘
That closed jar plant is amazing 🌿👌
Hey Ingrid, I understand why you did not show your whole apartment, but maybe you could have done individual room tours. That way the clips would not be so zoomed in (which was kind of uncomfortable to watch), but you could still retain some privacy by not having to show every room or hallway.
Also! Will you be doing a video about the process of moving? like more a sit down one talking about finding an apartment, boroughs, movers all that stuff? It might be helpful to a lot of people moving from far, especially because it kinda looks like you pulled it off well, so I would love tips :)
Apartment goals! Love!
I didn’t see anything guys 👀🤦🏼♀️
Does anyone know how she's able to afford this???
Omg...I so want a Ginormous Frig like this...lol....and I also like your dining chairs as well.
I always love how you decorate your space! Giving me great ideas. :)
