Why You Have Nothing to Wear | Erin Elizabeth
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Hi guys - today's video I'll be sharing my wardrobe insights with you on why you might struggle picking out outfits from your closet and you feel like you have nothing to wear! It's so frustrating when you have a closet full of clothes but you feel like you still have nothing to wear, and getting ready in the morning takes you much longer than it should.
I've linked some of my other videos below including my major closet cleanout, and my series for building basics and starting your own time capsule wardrobe.

Really useful tips, especially about not buying too many similar pieces... I'm so guilty of that!

Ellen Rose That sounds like an awesome idea but I live in Europe, so I'm not sure if we have that here. I'm slowly trying to embrace the thought of a minimal wardrobe by mixing and matching what I already own to create new looks, but I still end up buying a new piece every 1-2 months.

My favorite closet organizing tip is asking yourself, “would I buy this now?” And is the answer is no, say goodbye to it. It’s helped me tremendously! I now have a closet full of things I LOVE!

If you ever need a video idea do you think you could make a lookbook where every individual item is under $40 or maybe $50? I love your style and I'm trying to look more put together instead of just wearing sweaters every single day haha

Blew my mind! Even though I got into French style before discovering your channel, this still blew my mind. These couple of days is when I’m just realizing after adding the classic French City Staples I can incorporate items I didn’t know how to wear before now, and then you said it! Wow! And thank you!
Love this! Super helpful and it's helping me turn my wardrobe around 😊
This video was so useful and inspiring! ✨I've seen lots of videos about this particular topic (cause yes, I'm always struggling with the "i've got nothing to wear" thing) but your tips were so original and useful! ❤

Love the advice of making a list of things you don't have. Also this advice might make me sound like a slob. But I have 3 washing storage and I've realised. I only end up washing items at the top. If some folk do that too. Then look at that pile dived it to keeping and donating. Then wash and keep or donate. Also to collectors I use to like collecting thick indian traditional scarfs when I was a teen. I'd wear a different one each day. Now I'm 25yrs old don't wear scarfs some are in good condition. If you have clothes in good condition sell them.

It's helpful
This was really helpful for me I finally realize that I have no basic clothing I I really need to buy some
This year, I studied a lot about clothes and what looks good on my petite frame. I realize I don’t wear most of my clothes because most of my blouses are a little too big for me...the shoulder seams don’t even fall on my shoulder. But then again when I buy the smaller size they’re suffocating. I’m usually between XS or S depending on the material and design. I feel bad when I look at my wardrobe thinking if only some pieces are smaller or bigger...it’d be perfect. I even made this mistake with the clothes I purchase 1-2 months ago and only realize it now. Oh well, I didn’t know back then. 🤷🏻♀️
The title of the video seemed very promising, however, the entire video was talking. It would have been more helpful to actually pair basis key pieces with a in trend piece to keep your wardrobe trendy. Perhaps a piece of jewelry, scarf, clutch etc. This is important as not a lot of people have a lot of extra money to constantly update their wardrobe. Thanks for listening.

Thanks for the feedback. I actually have a lot of style guide videos if you're interested in something more visual, as well as my building basics series where I show pieces that I feel are timeless and you can build multiple different outfits with them and keep these pieces for many years. I'm not a person who follows trends heavily because I don't like to constantly update my wardrobe either.
For me is having too many clothes, you forget what you have, I solved it by creating an actual inventory using an app, is a lengthy process but TOTALLY worth, you can save outfits and label them by occasion so everyime you go out you already know a lot of premade outfits
The app Pureple is useful to assess all that you have and to help when shopping so that you can check if don’t have too many of that piece and to make sure you have something that can go with what you already have.

Haha I know the feeling! It's so hard not to when you have a certain style you really like!
Few things... One...I wonder how to budget to rework our wardrobe. I struggled to let go of pieces, now that I don't struggle to let them go anymore I feel like I don't have enough (really, like 5 casual shirts and I am ready to let go of 3 of them, bec I don't feel like I like them anymore ant the one I really love can't fix). Two... Funny thing, I worked slowly on my basics but then I lost a little weight and they dance on me. I don't wanna loose the money... How can I then budget realistically but fast enough to really enjoy the pieces. I remember when I was a teen I had a set budget of $X and I shopped on summer and that was it. Jus in cases when I needed something specific bec of a party or something. Otherwise I shopped once. What's your take on this? Or anyone?

I like to make a list of things I want / need for my wardrobe! That way I can slowly add those things to my closet. Also a lot of my favourite pieces are from stores like Forever21 or H&M that I didn't spend much on but the fabric is nice and they've lasted a long time!
I definitely keep buying too many similar items. I was putting away online purchases yesterday and found wayyyyy too many striped tees!

Unfortunately, if you live in a place where you have all 4 seasons, chances are it's normal to not see a good portion of your wardrobe for a year. It's now warmer weather and I'm seeing old favorites since I can put away the heavy sweaters.

I have so much clothes i dont know how to make multiple outfits. Then when i get rid of stuff it becomes a trend.
My closet is full of basics, actually that’s all I own because I’m a minimalist and I’m bored of it, it’s so simple and pointless sometimes
ah u look like amanda cerny just more elegant !
why i have nothing to wear? its because im broke !
When I mean nothing I literally mean nothing My clothes are either small or big and there's literally nothing to wear can't even go shopping coz I don't have anything to wear loo
Great video tip! One suggestion: use less of "so…" in the beginning of a sentence. That makes the speech weird and dragging.
