I don't really buy anything. Yup! I don't like shopping. I am just 16 and i have no interest in buying anything, I just think that i am not good enough to carry them, that's why i don't even go out many times.I have many Insecurities.😑😑😑😢😢😢

Gift wrappers - use newspapers. Small pots - Reuse detergent cans, big water bottles. Floor cleaners - plain water with some salt will do. Organisers / Drawer separators - Reuse sturdy mobile phone boxes and other packaging materials. Thank you for inspiring many. I hope we all can make slight changes to make this a better place.

Nice Video 🤘 Here are the things I stopped buying :- 1. Expensive Printed Notebooks 2. Room Freshener 3. Body Mist 4. Candles 5. Magazines 6. Pop Sockets And here is what I think why keeping an extra pair of shoe is a must. There might come an event be it an interview / party / wedding, which is important and at that moment one might not have the money to buy a shoe that is why I believe, one must have at least one pair of extra shoe ( heel pumps) which goes with almost everything ❤🌸❤

Hey Helly, I have been watching your videos for a while now and I am totally in love with the content you are posting and the topics which you talk about. Couldn't agree more in this video, even I have stopped buying most of the things which you have mentioned here. One pair of shoes, less clothes, menstrual cups and so on. Your thoughts totally resonate mine. Thank you for making this must share video..👏 Keep rocking 👍😊

No matter how much I hate confessing this, but lately even I've stopped purchasing Sandals. I invested in a rose gold t-strap flat sandal in march 2018 and it is very versatile, it goes well with indian wear, western wear, party wear and daily wear. but other than I own flip flops for home and a pair of sketchers walking shoes that I got in 2015.

[@Dr.Doodle.]

I practiced minimalism even before I knew the concept of minimalism because you know poverty hits hard😁

[@miranda3]

As much as i agree with all the points but i do think it is necessary to have atleast two pair of shoes which goes with every outfit... and in case someday one of your shoes breaks, you have to be somewhere and you don't have time to go and buy a new shoe.. On those days it's better to keep another shoe handy.. 😊

It was an amazing vedio, especially for students and that too belonging to middle class or going through financial crunch. I myself have been in situations where I've been feeling inferior for not being able to buy certain things but then ended up realizing how unnecessarily I was depressing myself. Great work Helly! we need people like you coz hypocrisy is at its peak. I've met people these really elite people who are promoting capitalism by their personal activities and look down upon others and not interact with them for not belonging to their 'class' but would post huge letters criticizing capitalism.

There are so many things which we usually don't use but still we buy them, it is high time we all should focus more on enviornment because only we can save our planet. Reduce, reuse, recycle we all must inculcate 3 R in our lives, we don't need to do something big but our small efforts can bring great changes. Do not buy plastic packaged products, use water judicially, avoid food wastage, use public transport for daily commute, watch your electricity consumption, we can survive with less clothes and accessories and fancy items but we cannot survive in polluted enviornment.

I agree with you on most items although as a budding designer I think one should have at least 3 sets of clothes. One for casual,one for formal occasions and one hybrid. Including the shoes as these are most important if one wants to look put together. You don't need more than three sets but men should pay 5000 for these set with shoes costing not more than 2000.
