ur local goth guy here to give yall some more tips!!! if ur an artist (or even if youre not, you can always make stencils), you can get old black t-shirts and paint them with white fabric paint!! one of my favorite shirts (reverse bear trap on the front & the saw logo on the back) was one i painted myself!! another thing you can do to spice up your shirts is to cut the sleeves off/crop them especially if u like more masculine looking shirts!! along with that, you can use the extra fabric to cut out & make patches with!! patches can go on pretty much anything but i think they look best on pants, jackets, and bags. patches are always a great way to make things more your own, for example some of the patches ive made have been for my favorite bands & horror movies (little tip: you can look up patches online and if you see designs you like you can always re-create them with paint or markers instead of buying them or embroidering them yourself!). my style is definitely more alternative but i hope these help!!

another that i've been doing is equating the number of wears of an item to it's price when deciding whether to purchase it or not - for ex: if a top costs $15, i ask myself, will i get at least 15 wears out of it? obv it doesn't apply in all situations, but i've noticed that doing this has stopped me from purchasing super trendy items because ik i won't get much use out of them & has also forced me to invest a little more into pieces ik i'll wear again & again!

Also another tip I would like to add is that you can still use fast fashion (like SHEIN) and be sustainable. It’s all about how you utilize fast fashion, for example if you buy only a few pieces that you need in your closet and will wear and cherish, that doesn’t contribute to overconsumption. Only buying trendy clothes that will eventually expire in a few months & tossing it is contributing to overconsumption.

Using the fast fashion that you’ve already bought yes, but buying new ones can unfortunately never be called sustainable. You’re still contributing economically to an unethical and environmentally disastrous industry. Also, if you do take really really well care of your fast fashion, it will last you longer, but it has literally been made to not last so longer = still not a properly long time for it to be considered sustainable. That said, no one can be perfect and every single thing we do is better than nothing 💖

Love u!

I now wear a size smaller in clothes than I did before, and with graduating grad school I have to slowly transition my wardrobe into timeless, useful pieces that bring me joy but are comfortable and appropriate for the environment I’ll be working in. I used a lot of your advice when building my wardrobe, and now it’s nice to see tips on how to make the most out of it

Another tip! When you do go to buy things, try to stick with a few colors. I only buy blue, millenial pink, mustard, and white. That way, your clothes will work all together and you will have endless outfit opportunities.

The hair tip is so true for me! As an African American gal I’m constantly changing my hair by doing different styles to protect my hair and let me tell you, when my hair changes the whole vibe of my outfits change with it!

Yesss way too many thrift hauls these days and not enough styling what they already own. Here for it bestie! Also you are glowing ✨

Also, depending on how close you are to your friends you could trade clothes with each other. Not even something complicated. My friend and I traded old pairs of black leggings cause mine had pockets which I don't like and she wanted and hers had none which I like. Now we both wear them way more haha

I love this new direction for our channel with using what you have, optimizing your current wardrobe and consuming less which is very hard to come across for a fashion channel. You deserve more subscribers than you have! :) Keep it up Laini!

I just bought a bunch of thrifted clothes. I love them rlly and i think theyre fit for the new aesthetic im trying to build (goth/grunge/slight indie?) tho for the indie, i think i was pretty influenced. But i like the pieces i bought and i think i can style them my way. I rlly felt bad with my slight overconsumption but im trying to at least buy from thrift stores and small businesses more.

Ok I was about to buy that exact Marc Jacob’s x devon Lee Carlson set so I guess I’ll watch this first

I started keeping my ‘special’ pieces in storage boxes because I used to sell everything so quickly and often regretted it! I also started to buy more high fashion (second hand) pieces, because I buy them more consciously and less often (I’m earning minimum wage, trying to spend less on trendy pieces). When I’m wearing my vintage Burberry coat I feel like a million dollars and I get so many compliments on it! I also borrow a lot of my boyfriend’s statement T-shirts, so I never buy those myself :). Thanks for sharing your tips, we need more videos like this!! Hope everyone is doing well 🍀

Video idea: Style 3 different aesthetics with only 6 clothing pieces(unlimited amount of accessories).

Every once in a while I like to basically put my closet on shuffle and grab the first thing at one end and force myself to make an outfit with it. Then move it to the other end after I wear it

another tip! download the app 'acloset' to keep track of all of your clothes and see how many outfits you can use it in.

I’m happy the algorithm brought me to your channel, so many people do so many haul videos and they’ll show us their new finds but, to say they’re doing hauls so often, you’d think they’d have enough clothes to stop consuming for a second and show us how they style what they already own

Love the third tip! You not only get more wear out of clothing you alter, but also support small businesses by using a tailor and get a piece that is all your own. LOVE this type of contact; so refreshing in a sea of influencers always encouraging consumption. 😌

I remember in another video, you said you weren’t really likening your jaded Londons and now here you are saying you reach for them now haha love the realness and how much I relate to that!

I am among the older crowd here maybe but some wisdom: Yes, the stuff I wore at 15 are trendy again (90s, y2k) and digging through my old room and wardrobe gave my current wardrobe a huge boost. So make sure you invest in high quality pieces - it will come back in style 😊

i’m really happy to see a video like this. With the influx of haul videos, and fashion videos in general, it really imposes this want in the viewer to consume more. But often I feel hopeless enjoying fashion but falling into the capitalist trap of being unhappy with what I have leading to overconsumption within my financial ability, so this is sooo so helpful. Also, you have such a great editing style making it super fun to watch,and you have a really wondeful presence . subscribed!

i love going shopping with my friends because they are there to tell me "that's so you!" or "that really matches your vibe," and then i know that its a good purchase

LOVE this new direction and you seem way happier with this kind of content 💖keep going, girl

I've started to think more before I purchase something like "How many pieces in my wardrobe can I wear this with?" if it's less than 3/5 then no I won't buy it/ "How many pieces do I have that are similar to this" if it's more than 2/3 then no I won't buy it. (I'm not an accessories person but I have been getting into berets which I wear one often and longer earrings)

Learning to sew is a great tip! I alter lots of my clothes and highly recommend it

love the series of conscious fashion

Just yesterday I bought my first oversized t-shirt and I love it, I was planning on buying something more today and this came up in my feed, perfect timing

Amazing video. And yes! Hair and makeup can make a complete different outfit even if your wear the same thing. A good way of giving identity to your outfits is also trying to tie your style with something you like that's unrelated to fashion. For example music, movies, books, etc. And try to put together outfits that remind you of that.

Love this video, I always find myself saying I have nothing to wear when I do, your vids are super helpful and fun to watch!!!

YUHH i'm obsessed with ur current vids bc i love recycling/reusing outfits and clothes and ur tips are actually so helpful

The 5 outfits hack is a great tip! I usually only think of one outfit or one item I can wear the piece with so thank youuuu :)

YES YES YES. This new content honestly is inspiring and makes me think instead of just like doing a haul ugh I love this

im going through a total wardrobe change right now and im so glad that i watched this video!! it helped me a lot with how i want to style clothes. thank you so much!

yea bc i was just thinking my closet needs a makeover 🧘🏽‍♀️

I have loved the concept behind your past few videos! I really appreciate how they're all geared towards reusing clothes and being sustainable

One tip I have is organising your closet by colour and category. For the last few years I've had all my blouses and button ups in one section, then all of my dresses, and a last section for all my outerwear. I then have each section organised by colour. You can go darkest to lightest, lightest to darkest, or in rainbow order (which is what I do). This means I can always find my clothes straight away and I can easily find contrasting or matching colours for outfits. I saw this tip on a KZread video and it changed my life. Sadly I can't remember who the video is by 😬

this has been so so helpful it’s stopped me impulse buying sm !!

I also appreciate this view that you have on fashion now and how you go about sharing it with us. Thinking of new ways to style the pieces that you already own gives them a new life in your closet. I can't wait to apply these tips to my own closet, thank you! 🔥🤯

Okay, these tips are so useful!!

You’re so right laini, personally I’ve gone from ginger to brunette and you wouldn’t believe how different outfits look on me now it’s honestly unreal, I’ve also been doing my makeup different recently it does make a big difference

I love your vibe and the vibe of this video 💜💜

Sis. I’ve been trying to be on the sustainability train for years but my clothing obsession couldn’t cope and THIS is the first video I’ve seen that gives actual SOLUTIONS. That I haven’t thought about before. Thank u❤️

The last tip was the one that got me! Thanks 😊

such a helpful video!! you have a wonderful energy!! ❤️

wowww thank you for this everytime i have something coming up I hop online to shop for it when my closet it already overflowing. I want to try to not buy any new clothes for a couple months and see how much I can save🌻

Congratulations 🎈🎉🎊🍾 on 175k subscribers.

Thank you!! This is honestly a lifesaver

sticking to a colour theme is handy!! i only wear pink, purple and neutral colours and it means i can wear any of my bottoms with any of my tops because they all match. xxxxx💗 oh and i love the accessories advice, will 100% be on the lookout for cute jewellery. thanks so much!

Yesss mix aesthetics honestly my room is basic but I do have a few things that are personalized to me

Loveeee your mindful fashion videos!!

It’s true 5 outfits seems easy to create, though the rule could only be applied to some basics or neutral colors I think when the item are more fancy or it’s printed and colorful 3 outfits it’s enough 😜 Also go for an optimal result by trying different vibe with the same piece then you will love ur new acquisition !!

u never miss w these overconsumption vids

I'm new to the channel and just saw this video it's amazing and changed my view of outfit making
