Before living an intentional life, I had a closet full of clothes I never ever wore. It was wasteful and truthfully quite pointless. When it comes to shopping, there's really nothing more satisfying than making my money's worth. I now really enjoy having a curated closet in which everything is put to good use. Let's build a realistic minimalist wardrobe (that makes sense) together. Clothes are meant to be worn after all xx

    As Always, Excellent Advice! And VERY Needed! Bc as you Mentioned, there are alot of Women out there that don't even think about those things you mentioned so they spend Thousands on Wardrobe Items that they aren't Utilizing or Even Wearing At All!
    A few months ago I watched another UA-cam Channel by this Young Woman who was Cleaning out her Hoard of Bad Choice Clothing, Shoes & Accessories! She must have had 60-70 Tee/Sweat Shirts, some which she dug out of the Floor of her Closet! She also had between 50-75 Pair of Shoes & Boots that were miss-shapen bc of improper storage! She could barely get into her Closet to even Clean it! She had bought all those things, wore them a few times (or Not at all) she Lamented all those Unwise purchases & felt she still didn't have anything Proper to wear!
    Thank You so much for the Great Videos, bc you always give such needed Advice! I've followed you for a few years now & I never miss one of you Videos! I'm 73 but I try to learn something New Every Day! And your Videos have given me such Wisdom about Practical Things for a Better Life! 🌷😊🌷👏 🇺🇸

      Thank you so much for your continuing support! I think our wardrobe is really an extension of how we do everything else, so I definitely like to be intentional xx

    Yes the care label and material content are a must for me. Love your new t-shirt dresses, the colors are perfection. Black is my most favorite color to wear. 💛

    I enjoyed the video! I loved 💕how you styled your new dresses. I love to see new ways to style simple but classic pieces and adding your jewelry/accessories just takes the look up another notch. Thanks for sharing.🥰

    I put my clothes in the dryer ( including silk, yes) for 5 minutes, they come out hot and wet and wrinkle free. Hang them properly and the ironing will be much easier or not even necessary

    I would love to see you style your clothes more as part of your video presentation. I always look at clothing labels for the fabric content and the care of the item. I try to avoid purchasing new items in my wardrobe that need dry cleaning. I stick to sustainable fabrics like cotton, wool, and linen. These were great tips, Eileen.

    Hi Eileen. What a great video. Your suggestions will help me remember to be thoughtful when I purchase anything to add to my wardrobe. Also, I need to remove the items that actually aren’t cohesive with any other items I own. Thank you.

    Thanks for the useful advices, esp. the Balmain tshirts, I own several ones and I agree that the quality does not justify the price tag, we simply pay for the logo!!

    I just got a Lady Dior bag in small size, in brand new condition but from a second-hand retailer at a great price. The price was so tempting that I finally pulled the trigger after eyeing on the bag for many years.
    However, I started to wonder how often I will use it. I love top handle bags but I seldom use my luxury bags in more formal and elegant style.

    What it is on IG was the elegant old money style, but for me I just want only to be "put together" wear what I want even it has a big logo or plain shirt, just wear what I want

    Hi Eileen. This was such a great video. It really made me think about my purchases. I love your style. I see the link for the t shirts in your description, but it takes me to the main page of Uniqlo but not to the actual t shirt. Would you be able to share what the t shirt is called? I’ve been looking to add some good quality t shirts to my wardrobe

    Love your take on minimalism!!! Could you please tell me the brand of coat you tried on in this video, the green with fur trim hood? I absolutely love it, and the way you looked in it, as well as how you styled it with your Hermes bag!!!

  • @flohough1870

    Love this video, so much good advice! I think you have great style sense and I agree completely with buying basic pieces, especially the part about buying in multiple colors if you like the fit/fabric/etc. Accessories make all the difference and knowing how to use them can change the whole feel of a single item. I recently bought a sweater in a neutral shade and I love that I can make it look casual or dressy just by changing the jewelry I wear with it!

    Love all the outfits and attention to quality. Are Grana cotton pre-washed? Will they shrink upon washing and drying in the machine? Thanks.

    • @ColourfulNoir
      @ColourfulNoir  Рік тому +1

      Not sure about pre washed but I did wash them all and I haven’t noticed any shrinking. There was however some creases which I quite easily ironed out with mid/low temperature xx
