I had a real problem with clothes shopping and holding on to whatever clothing I had even if I didn't wear it! To the tune of four or five closets full! I've decluttered 12 bags of clothing so far and I'm down to two closets. Need to go through again and declutter more! Your videos are helping!

Your wardrobe looks really nice on you! It's funny because most of it is miles away from what i would pick out for myself, but on you it all makes perfect sense and looks so coherent and peaceful! Nice how you're showing people how good it looks when someone embraces their own looks, taste and values!
You are so thoughtful and intentional. The world could use more like you.
I share your point on wearing clothes for years. I do it too. I even have a sweater that my mom wore before I was born (I am in my late 20s) and it still looks better than some new items in stores. I have never bought something because it was fashionable at the time but because I liked it and my wardrobe consists mainly of things I have had for 7-8 even 10 years.

Thank you so much Ann! What you said really resonates with me. I think it's so important to care for our pieces to allow for years and years of use. Even the ones I bought from fast fashion companies years ago are still in good enough condition to wear. So I think it really matters how we care for our items. :)

My favourite is the “love all beings” t shirt, wish I could find one like that. I managed to get down to mainly clothes that I actually like wearing so I’m making progress :)
I liked the green on you. Green can be hard to wear for those of us with fair skin and blonde hair,but you picked the perfect shade of green. I love your pink sweater best I think. I finally gave up on inexpensive tee shirts that lose their shape after a few washes and added 5 nice black tops as my basic look. My body shape has changed, so rather than living in pajama bottoms, I invested in two pair of jeans that actually fit. Thank you for being the catalyst I needed to have clothes that fit NOW rather than waiting for the elusive day that my 69 year old body will look like it did when I was 30! It feels very freeing. Have a wonderful weekend, Vera.😇

I agree. I’m 62 and it’s so hard to find clothes that fit and match my age. It’s either young or real old with no in between.
I honestly love the white top!! It might be a "trend" piece, but I find the puffy sleeve shape to be so flattering and feminine and found I added several tops to my own wardrobe with them since I know I won't be able to find them anymore, soon. Honestly, I have always found your wardrobe so lovely--it matches your soft and calm personality, looks so put together, and inspires me to keep things limited to things I love. Helps we have similar taste! ;)

I thought I had paired down my clothing but now you really have me thinking about more items taking up realestate in my closet that can find a happier home. Post COVID shutdown more of my coworkers have commented on how comfort is key now in getting dressed and I agree. I need to re-evaluate also the "fantasy me" lurking in my wardrobe and will feel so much better to have more breathing room in my closet when it's all said and done.
Hello Vera! My clóset is based on comfort and life style...so, instead of jeans , I prefer leggins for Winter and dresses for Summer. Greetings from Argentina 💙
That mint green shirt looks fabulous on you! 😍 mint & lavender are two pops of Color I have in my wardrobe. I can surprisingly wear so many different ways! Also I’m the most comfortable in my ankle length skirts! I love wearing them to church on Sunday’s!

This is the first video of yours that I watched, but I just wanted to say how much I admire your style. It’s very classy, trendy, and fresh.
Thanks for sharing! Last time I checked, I was at about 65 items for all 4 seasons (which is a thing in Pennsylvania) 🙂 not counting undergarments. I have found that having less to choose from makes it much less stressful when getting ready for the day. I also have a lot of black in my wardrobe. Everything goes together now 🙂

Do make a video on how do you fit all essential things in backpack.
I really appreciate your video on your wardrobe. I wear scrubs to work during the week, but in my off time I wear jeans 90% of the time with either a sweater or sweatshirt or t-shirt. I loved your long grey sweater as I needed an idea of what to wear over a top with jeans, and that's a great idea! Occasionally I would like to dress up a bit and have 1 pair of black slacks that I can wear a tank top with, and 2 dresses. I also have a black pair of jeans to dress up a notch from bluejeans! I have 5 pair of shoes, and that's about it. I haven't formally minimalized - I just never liked buying clothes!
The white Lacey blouse was my favorite, a true classic. I can see why you don’t reach for the black denim jacket. It seems a bit harsh for your personality. The mint green one, you are unsure of. I don’t know why. You choose that color on your couch pillow, your flower pot, your background on your website screens, I think you like that color. I think you should wear it in a video and see what you think after you replay the video. I have a lot less clothes than I used to. I have downsized to two areas, office work, and weekend. This has helped me to keep them in separate places, this way, I don’t accidentally wear inappropriate clothing. That sounds funny, but it’s true. Thank you Vera ! I have been enjoying your content for over five years now. 🌞

Enjoyed this video! Thanks for the inspiration. Since your wardrobe is small, you know each of the pieces very well and you make sure they all get used. It was only in the last two years that I learned how much of a burden our clothes can be. The time spent shopping, the expense, choosing all the styles for the various aspects of our lives, the care, the space consumed, delivery, packaging...I love the mint green on you. Adds just enough pop of color, and that's nice to see once in a while.

Hi Vera! Love your entire wardrobe. My favourites are your pink sweater, your dress and your white blouse with flowers on. Great shoe collection as well.👌 Pretty happy with my own wardrobe although I'm still going to declutter a few items that I no longer love and wear. I used to have a way bigger wardrobe but feel like I have more to wear now. I do need a few basic items but I'm in no rush and will only buy when I really love something. Thank you for the video and have a great weekend ! ♥️

Love what you shared!!! I too feel like I have more options now, even though I have way fewer items :) Love what you said about not being in a rush and only buying something if you really love it!
Love your wardrobe. It suits you. My fav is your pink sweater and green winter jacket. I have been decluttering my wardrobe for 3+ years. I am down to 58 items from 120. Everything is comfortable, my colors and appropriate for my figure. I have learned so much from KZreadrs like yourself regarding proportions, quality, fit, longevity and personal style. Occasionally an item doesn’t work out, I immediately donate to charity even if I only wore it one time. This is the most satisfied I have ever been with my wardrobe. Thank you for sharing your life.
It made me chuckle when you mentioned that you get lots of compliments about your blue sweater because I've always loved the colour of that sweater too 😊. As for my wardrobe I pretty much have a 'uniform' which I stick to pretty much every day which consists of a long sleeve top over which I wear a plain t-shirt (think a less colourful/patterned and ethical version of what Sheldon Cooper from Big Bang Theory wears lol 😂 ) paired with either jeans, chino trousers or shorts. When it gets too hot for that outfit (yuk) I will wear a simple shirt. I also have a hoodie for when it's chilly - now if I could find a new one in the same colour as your blue sweater I'd be a very happy bunny - and a winter jacket. I do need a proper rain coat (I think the UK can't be that different from the Netherlands in that respect 🌧☔). And talking of jackets I think your casual off-green jacket looks really great. .

Hahaha thank you so much!! Ah when you mentioned the long sleeve over the plain t-shirt, I immediately pictures Sheldon Cooper but in a less colourful/patterned way hahaha. I actually really like that look as well. And yes, you get just as much rain as we do I think!! :) I'm so looking forward to the fall
Your point about not having formal things made me think of a coral pink strappy maxi dress I bought on holiday... it's so impractical and there's so much fabric that it takes up too much space in a suitcase. It's in the maybe pile!
The long sleeve that puffs out is called a blouson style. 😉 You have a very nice variety of styles for a minimalist! What a great role model!

I enjoyed your wardrobe tour! My wardrobe is filled with prints and vibrant color. Most of my jeans are colored as well, although I do have regular jeans too. I also have colorful shoes to match the jeans. I would say that I really love putting together an outfit that matches along with fun colorful jewelry is my aesthetic. I’m sure there are items I could declutter but the quality is better than what I’ve purchased in the last few years. So I hang on to them and wear them occasionally. It was fun seeing what’s in your wardrobe! Thanks for sharing, Vera. ☺️🙌

I'm retired so I don't need much clothing anymore. I have less than 50 pieces total and usually wear yoga pants at home and jeans when I go out. My two pair of jeans are both more than 25 years old and are faded but still nice. Since I live in Florida where it never gets too cold, I have a cardigan, a blazer and a vest but have never worn them. I have two pairs of nice flip-flops, not the typical cheap ones but nice. I have cute Japanese tabi socks to wear with them if my toes get cold. I have one backpack. Your wardrobe is very nice, well chosen and comfortable looking. I really like the green sweater for you. I really like the shoes and will be looking at them for myself. Thanks.

This really put into perspective how excessive my current wardrobe is 😬 Thank you so much for your videos - they are so helpful as a recovering shopping addict. I would recommend Everlane if you are looking for a more formal coat! Just bought The Cotton Modern Trench Coat myself for this past season and highly recommend. It is sustainable and I'm 90% sure vegan as well, plus very easy to dress up or down (also on sale at the moment!). Also I love the turquoise color on you that you are unsure about, it looks really stunning with your skin tone and eyes! In general all of your pieces are timeless and such good colors on you... I'm guessing light summer seasonal palette? :)

On the subject of hoodies/warm jumpers it would be worth having a spare one to hand this winter, given that our heating bills will be increasing dramatically. I was going to declutter an old hoodie but have decided to hang onto it for the winter now in case it’s really needed.

Yes, great suggestion! I actually have quite a few things that are very warm. And I layer up as well :) So for example, I'll wear yoga pants underneath really warm pajama pants, and then a tank top, underneath a long-sleeved shirt, underneath a warm sweater. Then socks and warm slippers, and if I'm still cold, I'll curl up underneath a warm blanket. And only then, if I'm still cold, I'll turn up the heater a bit haha
I'm like you, I keep the clothes I enjoy wearing and feel good on my skin! The green sweater you are iffy about is a beautiful colour and should look great on you! Thanks for the tour!

I also think those shades look stunning and really harmonious on you. You can absolutely wear all the colours that you enjoy, I just think it's good to know these informations even if we don't follow it 🌸 How about secondhand fancy wintercoats?

TY Vera for sharing your wardrobe with us. I find your wardrobe so easy to mix & match pieces and that's what I'm working on! I can definately get distracted by buying too many patterns and that makes it difficult to match and make different combos which makes you buy more items. I am doing much better but you gave me some good ideas! My favorite item is your brown cable knit sweater and the pink fits your complexion perfectly I think. I do think the green/aqua color is fine on you but I like some of the others better on you. 🏵

I think my biggest problem is that I'm not particularly attached to clothing, but if I truly only kept what I loved or what I was attached to, I would have a pretty useless closet for my lifestyle. I'm forced to keep half of my closet for practicality reasons. Like you, I have clothes that are a decade old that I wear regularly, and if I wanted to, could keep wearing for another handful of years. Another problem I have is getting rid of older clothing that is showing its age (stretched/wrinkled/discolored collars, very faded, etc) but is still wearable because other people are unlikely to notice the wear and tear that I notice.
@SimpleHappyZen
Жыл бұрын
I can relate :) With the older pieces that are showing their age, perhaps just keep it simple and ask yourself if you still enjoy wearing them. If the answer is no, and you also don't need them because you have enough other options, then it could be time to let them go :)

I have between 50- 100 for all 4 seasons here in the Northeast of the USA, depending on whether you count undergarments, socks, and sleepwear. I tend to wear leggings and soft tunics and cardigans. I do have lots of socks because I got them in bulk, which was silly. Like you, when I find something that is well made and I love, I keep it. So eventually my closet will shrink even more. It’s lovely and peaceful to look at all that open closet space and know I have plenty to wear for years to come! Blessings and grateful thanks Vera 🥰💖
I liked the mint green shirt on you, you have such beautiful fair colouring that those colours are just perfect on you! 💚

I can relate to the all soft pink purses and bags looool. Been there. It's just a cute color, pretty neutral yet edgy and really goes with everything. Is soft pink the new beige? Maybe.
I got rid of black from my wardrobe and tend to go for navy or charcoal instead. I wear jeans and tshirts through winter ( it doesn’t get too cold here in Australia where I live) and I wear dresses through summer. Comfort is my top necessity, if it’s not comfortable, out it goes.

I totally agree! Comfort is everything :) Also, I see what you mean about switching out black for navy or charcoal
In the last year I’ve really tried to only buy clothes that fit well and get rid of ones that don’t. I feel you about purchasing skirts. We have a similar body type and it can be challenging to find what flatters!
I love the softer shades on you such as the pinks, mint and oatmeal.

Thank you so much Teri!! :) Just figured out (from someone's comment) I'm a light summer type in the color analysis model, and it totally makes sense. That type also had lots of lighter pinks, mints and oatmeal colors.
Your sweaters look amazingly cozy! I’m a sweater person, so I may have too many… thanks for sharing your wardrobe

Thank you so much Tania!! I'm a sweater person too haha. I actually talked about it in the video, but I cut that part out since it was getting too long. But yes, I don't really enjoy shopping that much for clothing, except for sweaters. So I'm always trying to make sure I don't go overboard with them hahaha
I enjoyed this very much Vera - you are so inspiring! I have too many clothes ... although I'm doing much better than in the past and I keep peeling away at it ... ! My favorite item you showed is your green/Khaki jacket - I just love that style and color!!!! I have a real weakness for bags, jackets and hoodies. It's hot here most of the time so I enjoy when we finally get to fall/winter so I can wear my favorite things. :) I do think I have a very deep scarcity "thing" when it comes to clothing ... so the progress I have made is good ... I'm so picky about the fabric, fit and comfort of everything and it can be such a challenge to find replacement items ... lol ... so when I find something that works well my tendency is to stock up ... especially athletic shoes and jeans. :)

Thanks for this video, I was one of the people requesting it. I really enjoyed seeing more dark blue or navy instead of just black and seeing some colour in there. It's a refreshing take on the usual minimalism wardrobes I see around. I particularly loved your brown sweater and your dark blue top with the details at the shoulders. I think dark blue is one of the most flattering colours a pale person with blue eyes can wear, it looks amazing on you. 💙 Do you ever wear the long sweater with leggings? It would look so nice and cozy with navy leggings and your navy boots. 🤩 I own a few more items than you do, but I'm very happy with the size of my wardrobe and I think I have what I need. And it comfortably fits in half of the wardrobe and half of the dresser, which was my goal all along.

On your jackets. I love the casual 16:51 green boxy one and I like the nice teal/green winter coat that is warm and water proof. I would probably add a wool coat to your wardrobe. I LOVE my wool coat cuz you can dress up or down and the style is always in. I’ve learned the best length wool coat is longer then a pea coat but not as long as to the knees. Mid thigh works! Cuz whether your wearing pants, dress or skirt the length works for all three! And it’s not too much or too short.

PS: I have a black one, and a cream one. I wear the black one the most.
Love your jeans collection!! I also have a hard time finding bottoms that fit AND look flattering. Story of my life 😅
Hi Vera, dank voor je mooie content! Vind je video's altijd fijn, ontspannend en inspirerend. In je video gaf je aan soms wat zoekend te zijn: staat dit mij en/of past dit bij mijn figuur? Ik heb een tijdje terug zo'n workshop gedaan waarin ze kijken naar wat voor figuur je hebt en welke kleuren staan je goed. Dit heeft mij onwijs geholpen in het maken van duurzame kledingkeuzes. Ik doe nu bijna nooit meer een miskoop, shop gerichter, draag echt veel wat ik koop en kan beter kleding kopen waar ik ook lang blij mee ben, omdat het past bij mijn figuur en teint. Een investering van tijd/geld die het dubbel en dwars waard is geweest voor mij. Wie weet is zoiets voor jou ook helpend! :) Nogmaals dank voor je fijne content!
The green blouse looks perfect on you. I like it

Hi from Ca! I’m fairly new to your calming channel and adoring the vibe. As a cozy Virgo, I strongly appreciate your closet selections. Your style is beautifully balanced and comfy. All of the pieces are no fuss and look made for your body. You asked if the green top works…I feel it’s not the right shade. I’m a Summer and you appear to be one too. That shade I’ve tried numerous times and it just never seems right. I say pass. Your green jacket however has a pleasant tone that totally works for you! With that said, your green jacket is one of my favs (especially for versatility), but it also ties with every single flutter sleeve top, with the flowered one being first ;)

Thank you so much for your knd words!!! And welcome to the channel :) I appreciate your thoughts on colors! Someone mentioned in the comments that I'm probably a 'light summer' type in the seasonal color analysis, and after googling it, I think she was definitely right. The colors for light summer seem to be a little different than for 'regular' summer. So I'll use that going forward :)
