This is EXACTLY how I have decorated for the last 35 years. My home is more vintage shabby chic, it’s not hard to find the stuff I like.

The hat is from an old Salvation Army uniform, I would guess back in the 20s or 30s. The general in charge of the Salvation Army at the time was a woman, and she actually rocked some pretty cool uniforms (in addition to being one of the most influential women in the world at the time).

Laura, after weeks of watching your videos, I have learned so much. I have been thrifting, and I have gotten so much better at it. I had lost weight right before Covid, and donated 3/4 of my clothing. Then lockdown happened, and I lived with less then 1/4 of my clothes. I have now been thrifting, and thrifted all my summer clothes, plus another tip I took from you is looking at off season clothing. I have thrifted the best winter tops, and now working on my winter wardrobe. I have saved so much money, beautiful pieces for a few dollars. A whole new world has opened up to me…. NO more fast fashion for me, I can’t believe the quality of vintage clothing… I’m ADDICTED… I have purchased everything from Goodwill and my local thrift store…. Yesterday I found a beautiful black leather mint crossbody for $4…. I just want to say Thank you…. I enjoyed your closet tour, I am drooling over your beautiful clothes, and accessories❤️

Thanks so much for sharing your collections. From one maximalist to another, never apologise for collecting and using the things you love.

Hi, I’m Dutch and I live close to Volendam. It is a little fisherman place, very beautiful and traditional... I wish you could visit someday... it is gorgeous... the girl in the plate is wearing the typical head dress from Volendam... the typical clothes and jewelry that belong to the women in the area are beautiful too, some of them they wear them still every day, they are very proud of their heritage. 🌷🌷🌷

My Mum was born in Holland, near Dordrecht but moved to Australia as a child. I've been to Volendam, it is beautiful. I've never seen a delft design like that, but would love to find a piece. Is there a particular name/ style that I can search for?

That multicolored clutch handbag looks like a "Corde" style or "corded embroidery" handbag, which were made from a corded/braided type of heavy thread that was sewn down on a fabric backing to create the design. This was a machine made product made from about the 1930's through the 1950's. It was meant to recreate the look of the hand crafted style of "tambour" embroidery. They often came in black, brown, navy, but also in "rainbow" which were multicolored. Several companies produced this type of bag. Some lines had wonderful Lucite zipper pulls and purse frames (these are my favorite). On another note, I would say your billed hat with a cross on it is an antique Salvation Army Uniform Hat... Lastly, I would say that anyone such a generosity of spirit and genuine enjoyment for what they do can never really be a braggart, just someone who really enjoys sharing t with others...

Your clothing, jewelry and household goods are like a walk down memory lane for some of us! Like great music, seeing certain items can take you back to a special life moment, a special event or a memory that makes you smile. Thanks for the theatre of the mind you create. As always, you are a blessing! Thanks for sharing.

The mutli color bag is a corde or cordé bag. They started to be made in the 1920's and were still popular in the 1950's. Your multi color or rainbow bag is rather rare, as most were black or navy. It is made from gimp rayon corde sewn to fabric. What a great gift!

Don’t apologize for your hard work. Regardless. You deserve it! I love your channel and you inspire me with every video.

It’s a collection; a time capsule of fashion. And I can see by how you touch each item that you respect the quality of the pieces. Good for you! Keep on shopping!

I just recently found your channel and have been binge-watching it for the last two days. We have similar tastes. Thank you for saying it's okay to not be a minimalist. Here recently the last few years there has been such a big push to be a minimalist not only in social media but it's influenced a lot of my friends and while that's their jam it's really placed a lot of guilt on me. and kinda ticked me off. To be clear I keep everything clear and clean but have been told if I got rid of my collections I would feel better because there would be so much open space and blank walls. As a person who has worked at thrift stores, and an antique store, and comes from a family of artists that's torture. Your closet was beautifully done and the trinket boxes and display bowls were a great inspiration. Thank you for the time and thoughtfulness that you put into your videos, they give the rest of us the opportunity to love what we have and not feel ashamed of it.

All I know is that you would love my closet and the things I collect, because I love yours! We have a lot of the same taste. I’m almost total boho in the way I dress. Been dressing that way for close to 35 years. I have 100 pairs of boots, umpteen crochet vests and crochet/lace cardigan type toppers, boho skirts and I am a total jacket ho. I’m an animal print addict too. I need to do a video showing my clothing, boots and jewelry. Most thrifted. I was thrifting before it was acceptable. Now I can’t find crap because everyone is doing it. EBay is my friend. 🥰😉

Please! Please!!! Show the kimonos to us! I’m a collector as well and I absolutely love to see other beautiful vintage kimonos♥️

My closet contains a lot of black items and brightly colored kimonos, Dansko shoes and boots and a few hats! I love anything embroidered too. All thrifted. Of course I'm twice your age and wrinkled and you are as cute as a bug's ear...... Thanks for sharing Laura. We're living proof that you don't have to live in leggings!

Thank you for opening up your closet & sharing it with all of us. You are a true inspiration. I'm going to change my unused spare bedroom into my own closet/make-up room. I have so many beautiful coats, purses & pieces of jewelry that are all in boxes & plastic totes. I never really get to look at them or enjoy them. It's time to unlease the awesomeness. You got me so excited. Thank You Laura.

Oh my gosh I swear you and I were standing in line together way back in some other lifetime when they were giving out souls, because everything about yours sings to mine 🖤

I'd love an in depth episode about vintage and mid century jewellery designers that inspire you

This video validated me 🤣🤣 I sometimes feel like an oddball with a huge closet of amazing vintage finds because “minimalism” and capsule wardrobes are so big. But I love all my special pieces! And even if I skip wearing something for a while (like your hat) I almost always come back around to it, if it’s truly great. More stuff like this please!

I think it’s a testament to how much we love the pieces and selective we are that we can skip a year (or two) and come back and still love them and be excited to wear them. Instead of loving for one season and then feeling like they are already “dated” my the next season.

You are not bragging about what you have. I think it's awesome that you took the time to show us your closet! (btw it's fabulous) I was inspired not only to reorganize my closet but to get back to my love for shopping vintage. With all that we have gone through over the last year, you have sparked joy with a rainbow at the end to get us through! Keep spreading joy by sharing! : )

The First bag you showed is probably an Aigner bag. German brand or at least her well known here. The owner was an apprentice at Hermès and the old bags have impeccable quality because they used saddle leather

Yes! I love your thrifting videos but one of my favorite videos of yours was "Thrift With Me: Goodwill Fashion Haul," from 3 months ago. I loved how at the end you modeled the clothes you thrifted mixed with clothes you already had at home. Very inspiring! I definitely want more like that! Thanks, Laura.

I have great respect for those that respect items and don’t just discard them! And the way you show your collections translates your respect for the items!😊

This was so much fun! Thank you for sharing your closet. The way you organize is inspiring. Don’t be concerned about how much you have collected…more is more, when it’s beautiful and gives you pleasure…and you can share. I enjoyed seeing similar items that either I have had or still have from the 60s & 70s. I’m 75 now and still enjoy all the vintage finds.

I do enjoy seeing what other vintage resellers keep for themselves. Lovely closet and such great taste Laura!

Your necklace holder was a men’s tie display rack in department stores many years ago I believe.

That jewel box with the bird on it that you have the Scottish brooch in is a Chinese Shard Box. When a precious antique piece of porcelain was broken they would take the pieces and rework them into trinket boxes.

During the Chinese cultural revolution of the 60s and 70s it was considered illegal to be in possession of antique porcelain, so much was broken and thrown away...later in the eighties a Chinese family began a business collecting and making the broken pieces into shard boxes...I also have one and I love knowing that there isn't another like it, as no two are the same. Most of the 'shards' are hundreds years old, some thousands. Rather sad when you think about it, but I'm glad that these pieces of history get to have another life and be appreciated for how beautiful they are 😊🖤

LOVE your closet!!! You convinced me that I should start looking at used boots. So I determined that Saturday when I go thrifting I would begin. So today I stopped at the thrift store by my house and meandered over to the shoes. Found a pair of vintage Dan Post leather boots for $6.99! WHAT?! The sad part is they aren’t my size but I can sell them and keep looking for more!!! Thanks you!!!

Your closet is on par with some of those pricey boutiques. But your clothes are way cooler🤗. Girl you rock!!
