Thanks for the video I really liked your tips :) One of my method is to think if the thing that I want to buy can be teamed with at lest three items in my wardrobe or I can borrow some pieces from my friends then try them on for a while and later decide if I really need them and feel comfortable wearing them. I was wondering do you work as a stylist? How did you get into fashio in the firts place?

YES YES wear your special stuff. Heartbreaking to sort my mom’s clothes and find gorgeous cashmere she NEVER wore. Saved for a special day. But that special day never came. I wear everything…except the ballgown at the grocery store. Definitely something to ponder.

I slept in a cashmere sweater last night…it was not wasted. My sister always asked herself, “what would this look like if I slept in it?”. The sweater was a thrifted men’s argyle which I also wore to get pizza yesterday. Welcome spring….snow and freezing.

I wish I could wear my nicer clothes on a more regular basis but I will absolutely destroy them. I wore a silk shirt to dinner at my parents’ and managed to snag the fabric right away. Without doing anything more extreme than driving, walking, helping set the table and eating. Cashmere and wool I am pretty good with, actually wear those a lot to work. But I am learning that silk may just be not for me, though I love how it looks and feels.

@@metasymphony Different types and weaves/knits of silk wear very differently. You may not want to go with satin or some of the more gossamer silk weaves--they snag like crazy. I have several pairs of silk gabardine pants that I wear all the time, and no matter how much I bump into snaggable objects, they're fine. (I also thrifted them, so if something happens and they get destroyed, I'm not going to cry about it.) They're also hand washable, which I'm fine with.

@@sarahgelberg Ooh thank you, I’ll have to look that up! The shirt I wore was recycled sari silk so I thought it would be pretty resilient, but I think there are different kinds of sari silk as well.

The best thing I ever did for my style was pull my favorite items out of my closet and look at them together. Some very clear preferences became obvious immediately. There were just a few colors, cuts, fabrics and textures. Three words could definitely describe the vibe. And it was enough to put together a few days of fits that make me feel great. It felt like my true style was there already, but it was hidden in a lot of clutter. So I decided to wear only my favorites for now, and evaluate everything else one piece at a time at a pace I can manage. It has been rewarding so far! A few items went to consignment, so I have some store credit to use when I am ready. Friends wanted some pieces, and I am thrilled that they look great in things that were not working for me. A local organization was looking for specific items that I had, so I donated. The real fun is just beginning though--I transformed a couple of things into favorites with dye and small alterations that I learned with internet tutorials. I have at least ten more pieces that I plan to alter. My collection of favorites is growing without shopping!

I really had problems with the 3 words, because my style in summer and winter are very different. I have now decided to have 3 words for the warmer months and 3 for the kold months and suddently it works. Chick, comfy and casual for cold, feminin(flowy), Hippie light and easy for the warmer moths, my modyfyers would be edgy and dramatic all year.❤

The wrong shoe was the only tip that didn't resonate to me on the video. Or it did, but to reinforce exactly what you said: the wrong shoe actually feels wrong. I can feel awkard the whole day if I fell I picked the wrong shoe for the outfit.

Hi Christina, I really love your content, thank you so much! I live in Germany and it is so refreshing and inspiring to see your style ideas because it’s really different from what I see when I walk down the streets of the relatively small town I live in. One thing I actually learned from this video is that the ‘aspirational’ part of all the methods like the three word method, wrong shoe and so on is something I could use for my own style. I passed many years feeling ‘off’ in my clothes because I never dared incorporating items that felt too far away from what I am used to. Your ten tips from this video really help, because I realize that I could just be integrating this and that into my wardrobe to move forward and see what works..plus seeing the inspirations from your own wardrobe really motivates me!

I cant stop watching your videos. This makes so much sense. I think my words are somewhat like Artsy + Cosy + Practical.

Its interesting to hear you describe the black slip dress as feminine and pretty. I would have described it as sleek and sophisticated. But that's different interpretations leading to different looks, even with the same 3 style words.

Thanks, your videos are always great. But whenever I watch a creator showing an outfit, and changing it, is usually achieved adding a blazer, jacket, scar, etc. But what happens in a hot weather or even when you get to the place you are goin? Usually we would take it out and then the outfit gets back to its origins.

I like to use Oxford shirts as over layers usually and that’s when accessories hair etc come in

I think #10 is so important. If I’m still thinking about pieces of clothing a week after I put it on my wish list or longer then I know I actually am interested and it wasn’t just me being caught up in the moment.

Thank you so much for your honesty and transparency about your previous spending habits and problems. Far too many influencers out there peddling a fantasy that they have all this and can afford it so you should too, without baring the truth of sponsorships, so called ‘favourites’, free goods in exchange for their promotion, links so they make money off your spending, and ‘hauls’ that are promptly returned.

loved the bit about not saving the dressier clothes of the favorites for special occasions....rather wear and enjoy them. a big fan

I had fairly debilitating shoulder pain for years so I now have a lot of button down shirts and cardigans, decluttering anything that was polyester or acrylic. I'm not even mad about it because I discovered that those articles of clothing are not only practical but my personal preference for the long haul.

Hi Christina, so true for No. 8 why are we saving our clothes?? Wear your favorite clothes!😊 Great advice.

I've been immersing myself in your videos. I'm quite a bit older, and I recently lost 80 lbs. I like the wearing of sneakers with dresses and boots with jeans. I do feel it is important to dress my age and minimalist. I'm finding out how I can jazz up these efforts and still be comfortable. I did buy a few investment pieces. You are right, I shouldn't save them for special occasions. Thanks for the videos🎉🎉

Delaying gratification is really working for me. Within a small amount of time, when I go back to my cart, I don't want the item anymore. Most of the time, I delete the items from my cart.

Whoa, #10 was a surprise! And it shouldn't have been. The moment we forget what brought us to success is when those habits start creeping back. Thank you for holding the line... Now excuse me, I have some items I need to return. 😊

It’s tough on me when I’m trying to evolve my style sometimes. I’m trying to get out of my comfort zone of t-shirt and jeans with sneakers. I enjoy your styling tips. Seeing a look and turning it to my own can bring up challenges. Thanks for the advice.

Thank you! I love the opposites hack and wrong shoe theory. Gonna apply these this week to achieve more balance!

Thanks for this great video! ❤ It really helps using these tips and tools. I am still searching for my style and especially for spring what my essentials are. I keep reminding myself it takes time. Have a nice day!

I find your videos such eye opening. Thanks.😊

Many good and practical points to use!

Very interesting video! I love to play with textures, so i almost always wear pleated skirts and unique shoes and different (mostly found in secon hand shops) blouses. It's so pleasant and makes the outfit mysterious, flexible or something else. Just interesting!

Taking notes! Great video, thank you:)

Clothes are my life and I love to follow the second hand influencers. I really think I got it all down but once in a while I hear a really fabulous tip from an influencer just here or there. I feel like this video has gleaned the best tips I have ever heard into one video. Kudos and congratulations! I love your style!

This video is solid! Thank you!!

Love this! Your videos are so full of amazing knowledge. Thanks so much! ❤

Another lovely video and the red t shirt looks great. I’m planning to add one in a cool red because I miss having one- it’s a staple for me. So are a bluey-green v neck t and sweater Those aren’t likely to appear on most people’s lists of essentials but they are for me.

Such great advice!

Christina, I've been following you since 2018 and I have to say I love your transition from being a shopaholic to consuming consciously and also getting out of debt. I am on a similar journey and I so appreciate you being vulnerable and sharing this with me/us! I love your new style cheers to evolution!

I'm really glad that you touched on how a person's upbringing can impact their sense of style, because honestly, I find that my style doesn't rely on outliers a whole lot. I like to keep things casual and I live in Tennessee.... traditional could be one outlier word that I would use. I also know that femininity is definitely starting to become a thing in my style even though my personality leans more on the masculine side at times.... It's a fun process to see you putting this exercise into practice, so I appreciate this video very much 😊

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Every point is an absolute gold nugget!!! Love ❤️

Started watching this and couldn't even stop or finish the video before perusing my closet for all the maybes I've been keeping in the mix. Count 'em, 12 tops -- almost 25% of what's there! Thank you for helping me to take action on what I've already felt weighing on my mind when getting dressed. Delayed gratification has worked SO well for me, and I have only mastered the practice by pinning everything that grabs my attention. Doing this has allowed me the space not to feel pressured "because I might forget it or where I saw it" but also sometimes I'll go back and be like, "Wow, that was definitely a passing fancy, glad I didn't buy that!" 😂 Not sure if you'll see this, but can you tell me where your black tank top came from that you wore in those clips toward the end of this video? Love the interesting and elegant scoop back!

Great tips! Fun sweatshirts are my wardrobe essential and I loved your gray hoodie. Do you mind sharing where it is from?

I was so excited for this Indyx thing, but unfortunately I don't feel represented by the styles offered at all. Like, I just don't ever wear high heels and I don't shop or desire specific brands. But I love this tibi colour wheel! I want one!

Your parents sound really fun! Excellent video, as always. Thanks so much!

Thank you!

I'd love to see an in depth video about rule #8 😊

I always thought that I must wear skirts and dresses with feminine shoes and I didn't like the vibe so I decluttered all my dresses and skirts 🙈 I started to slowly add them in my wardrobe again and now I only pair them with converse, oxford shoes or doc martens boots, and leather or denim jackets. I don't feel like me if I am all too feminine. I never thought that one of my words could be "sporty".

Yes! More about this ❤️ I have been heavely inspired buy you, Signe and Alyssa. The only thing I can’t nail down is my three words as I both like to dress classical and bohimian but not together. So I have more of two different styles living in my wardrobe side by side. Is it possible to have two sets of three words? The bohimian style I have in dresses but only dresses. So I still can combin most things. I find that I have lots of words describing my cloths and that is confusing.

I've really had to delay gratification until I can figure out my 3 words. It's tough because I like elements of styles that are so different from each other -- ex. cowboy boots and turquoise jewelry but I also like East Coast prep, classic French style, Southern preppy, and flowy, feminine skirts. But also I'm a stay at home mom of multiple kids, so my beloved blazers or crisp button ups aren't practical for everyday wear, but I'm enjoying the challenge of melding everything into my own style and elevating basics to fit both my lifestyle and style.

Hi Christina, what is the difference between 3 style words and modifier? For e.g. my style words are youthful, eye catching, comfortable. Then what would be examples of modifiers for my style?

Wish lists are great tools if you have a certain type of clothing you need or want. It also helps when sales do come up and that saved item is up to 50% off. I never pay full retail for clothing. There must always be a discount or perk. Also since I'm no longer corporate I do not feel pressured into buying a certain type of apparel.

Can you please recommend a classic black belt with gold hardware like the one you were wearing? Thanks
