Why You Hate Your Wardrobe

[@PicturedMind]

One of my biggest mistakes was buying items that are too similar. I'll just end up wearing the "better" one all the time while the other one gathers dust in the back of the closet. An example is jeans with a very similar wash and fit. Or a leather jacket in a similar material and fit. One of the two will fit and look better and I'll regret buying the other.

[@HarryHas]

Exactly! I do this too

[@aledominguez9173]

that's exactly how I feel, I always end up using just one, cause I find the other one just the same but worst

[@nwut]

Damn

[@stevedoherty239]

Don’t normally comment, but want to say love the content. Some of these other fashion channels are a bit over the top and just bounce from trend to trend. I love your approach of investing in a classic wardrobe so you can put together outfits to match the occasion. Keep up the good work

[@HarryHas]

Thanks a lot, Steve. Really pleased to hear that. Thanks for the support

[@fwoggangidk]

I completely agree with you! This channel is extremely relaxing and funny and the same time, as well as entertaining and useful! Good job Harry.

[@KidCracken]

My best tip to avoid impulse buys you regret is browse when you don't have money. Give yourself a couple of days - a week to think about whatever you want before you can actually buy it. I guess it's kind of the same as making a wishlist, a wishlist just doesn't work as well for me because I'm rarely after specific items. I'm more like "I need a blue sweatshirt" and then I'll just browse for that until I find the one I like most and buy that. Leads in to, don't get too attached to specific pieces. You just gets sad when it's sold out or don't live up to the dreams of how great it would be you had. Figure out what you need for your wardrobe by category and not by specific pieces. For example a blue sweatshirt.. There's probably 100's of nice blue sweatshirts out there. No reason to get overly attached to one. The same with brands. There's a bunch of brands I'd like to own something from, but don't just buy whatever because it's that brand. Figure out what you really want from that brand. And if you don't get the item, it wasn't meant to be. It's just clothes.

[@tylerrslays]

yeah i browse when i feel like it, take screenshots of the things i want, then wait a few weeks and go back to see if i still really want them😊

[@xjinbreb1405]

Great video again. Me and my girlfriend call sunday “Harry Has day” since we watch your videos regularly together. And we always say “see ya later” with you at the end of the video. We also really wish your videos were longer like 10+ minutes. We love you and see ya later 🖤

[@HarryHas]

Hahaha thats amazing. I’d like to do some longer videos but I get everything I need to say out too quick. Thanks for the support both of you. Means a lot

[@grouchos_tash]

I do the wish list method. I end up deleting things from it more often than buying! It’s great for ideas for my wife when my birthday and Christmas come round 😊

[@HarryHas]

Me too. It’s been really helpful this year for me

[@kaizerlikeshighfives]

I absolutely needed this video, for the longest time I’ve felt like my style and type of clothing just didn’t compliment eachother and now I feel a whole new mindset running through my head. Thank you❤

[@HarryHas]

Glad it helped. Thanks for watching

[@Imnathgriff]

Some bang on point here mate and ones I am definitely guilty of haha! I'm definitely due a huge wardrobe de-clutter.. Goodbyes are needed 😂! Great video as usual brother 🙌🏽!

[@HarryHas]

Hahaha thanks a lot dude. Have a good Sunday

[@Imnathgriff]

@@HarryHas you tooo brother 😀🙌🏼!

[@KoenRH2803]

Great video! My problem with the first technique is that I fall in love with a piece and want to take the time to think about it, but get worried that it will sell out and will not come back (which has seriously bummed me out before). Gets me every time

[@HarryHas]

Thanks mate. Yeah, man. I know that feeling. That’s the good thing about shopping in places that don’t change their stock around so often/quickly. It’s even better when brands have a permanent collection 👍

[@ethwang07]

I have similar problems-I find that (and this takes a ton of discipline), that as long as something isn’t final sale and you’ll find the time to return an item, it’s OK to purchase first and then make a long-term decision on whether to keep it.

[@caetano.santana]

Neutrals + simple + comfortable for your body + well made and quality materials. A wardrobe you won't regret.

[@TruthTriumphs786]

I like your simple and minimimal approach of choosing neutral color especially black and white. This two color minimizes any kind of impulse buying and one buys things only when it's absolutely necessary.

[@HarryHas]

Pleased to hear dude

[@aurelienduprat512]

It's a pretty good idea to have a list indeed, especially whenever there is no "immediate" match with a specific item (I experienced it a lot with sneakers 😅)

[@BrunoOliveira-xn7yr]

Me too! Making a list was a miracle to my savings! Saved good money and got sneakers I really enjoy wearing

[@JimmyMacLegend]

Agree with your point about not getting sucked into buying more by social media. It can be really suffocating when you go on Instagram and see reels and posts from influencers with new clothes all the time. But I think it’s important to remember that a lot of these are clothes are gifted or sponsored ads. I’m in the middle of a big wardrobe clear out myself - change in style and size. Depop is becoming my saviour 😂

[@HarryHas]

I need to do the same. It’s starting going through it all that’s the hardest part

[@KidCracken]

And a lot of the rest of their clothes are borrowed or bought only to be returned after the pics are taken.

[@HarryHas]

@@KidCracken that’s not a bad thing in my opinion. It’s more sustainable than wearing them once and throwing them away. At least they can be used again by someone else.

[@KidCracken]

@@HarryHas I agree but it also adds to peoples feeling of having to get new clothes all the time, because they see influencers in new clothes all the time. And, I know it's probably not happening, but taken to the extreme you can make stuff seem trendy by lending the same pair of shoes or whatever to 50 different influencers.

[@HarryHas]

@@KidCracken definitely agree 👍

[@Salazar824]

Dude! Your video was godsend. This was me last week. My biggest mistake was that most of my clothes are sports related and the loud colors you referred to. Thanks for the video.

[@anderskrjberg3282]

I would love to see a wardrobe tour

[@HarryHas]

I moved house not long ago so it’s all over the place at the moment. Maybe when I get settled in

[@coopers1716]

Sitting on purchases really makes a lot of difference. I go for stuff I think I'll appreciate a year from now over stuff that's gonna activate a few more neurons immediately. It makes me buy way less but allows me to buy nicer stuff when I do, and waiting it out gives me time to consider if the purchase is filling a hole in the wardrobe or just an impulse.

[@Yoyie4]

Definitely felt that feeling many, many times. There's something so suffocating seeing so many unworn clothes piling up the wardrobe. It definitely changed when I started decluttering, selling some pieces, and only buying clothes when I need to -- not whenever I see something that catches my eye. Great Video, Harry!

[@HarryHas]

Thanks a lot. I still need a good declutter of my wardrobe. It definitely gets overwhelming

[@holdenmahlers4294]

I don’t normally comment, even if i am old subscriber, but your content is very conscious driven and mindful about every aspect. Thank you and keep the good work

[@HarryHas]

Thank you very much. That’s great to hear. Cheers for the support 🙏

[@Ray03595]

Excellent advice. I also do a wishlist and am always crossing stuff out that I realize I actually don’t need/like later. And for buying backups, our sizing can change all the time is another reason not to do this for pricey items. The jeans I fit 2 years ago don’t fit me now and the dupe I had would be useless to me

[@HarryHas]

Glad you liked it mate

[@Jollopukki2]

love your honest approach ! really, fashion bloggers and influencers are creating unrealistic perception how much clothes should be purchased !!

[@HarryHas]

Glad you like the content! Thanks so much for watching

[@TheJhtlag]

Love is the word. I like Marie Kondo's rules for organizing/throwing out. Put your hand on it and if you don't feel anything throw it out. and the same goes the other way, one really does need to set your tolerance pretty high: you need to love something, not just like it.

[@mrdereksutton]

I'm doing a complete wardrobe overhaul in about a month and your channel has really helped me think of what I want to change. Thank you for your videos!

[@HarryHas]

[@chingbrian9685]

thank you for your kindness, honesty, and organization, your advice is such important for youngsters like me who don't have a clue about anything. don't have money to donate and will definitely like, share, and keep updating your videos. Stay well!

Thanks for watching mate. Glad to help. Have a good rest of your weekend

[@jaajames]

Thank you for advocating for slow fashion while still being relavent! I absolute hate all those Shein/other fast fashion haul.

[@Marcus_009]

Awesome advice Harry, responsible and thoughtful spending

[@HarryHas]

Thanks mate

[@iancardona3719]

The fact that you uploaded this video rn while I’m literally declustering my wardrobe is crazy tho 😂 ive removed around 70% wardrobe its insane

[@HarryHas]

I need to do the same.

[@knot3d_]

Yep, I agree on all of these principles - However, at the same time I do like to play it less than safe as well, incorporating pieces that tend to generate some stares in public.

[@HarryHas]

Those are the statement pieces I talk about in the video. They definitely have their place in my wardrobe too. Thanks for watching

[@osareme2462]

Hear me out people he is very much spot on I started sitting on it em let’s say I am really hyped up I wait a month on two saving it in my cart later on a realize I don’t even like it like that and remove it from my cart

[@triple-aries]

I answer no to both questions you asked in the beginning of the video. I’ve been watching your videos since last year and have rebuilt my entire wardrobe. I’m still wearing everything I bought last year.

[@HarryHas]

That’s so great to hear. Thanks for the support too mate

[@mhmrules]

I'm totally digging your written wishlist idea!

[@HarryHas]

It’s helped me so much since I started it. I find most things I add I don’t end up buying

[@pepsi_baby]

I totally agree with what you said. For me one of the mistakes I make is buying clothes that don't fit me entirely. I'm supper skinny and most of the trousers are either too long or too wide. But when they're affordable, I end up buying them just because they're cheap. Also, whenever I go to a store I end up buying something I might not want due to pressure of staff or some other phenomenons. Shopping online is better, even though you cannot try everything on.

[@mightquinnable]

A wishlist is no joke, I start one at the beginning of the year and alternative it throughout the year. It’s maybe trends or just stuff o want from a brand. I even keep track of items I bought at the bottom of the list

[@alexboston343]

I find I do a lot of these things subconsciously, but sometimes I do make those impulse decisions. Thanks man

[@HarryHas]

Thanks for watching mate

[@jomni]

I'm practising the wish list method now and holding off impulse purchases.

[@yungjeddy]

one of the realest youtubers out there fo sure!! thanks for this my guy. Bless up

[@HarryHas]

Thank you very much mate 🙏🙏🙏

[@jamesehoey]

Looking forward to you reaching one million subs

[@HarryHas]

That would be crazy

[@Lasturner]

Great video Harry as always 👍 I screenshot items of clothing that I fancy at the time so I can come back to them at a later date to see if I still feel the same urge. It is a great tip for saving the penny's. The worst habit I have when buying clothing I love is not wearing them in fear of ruining the item, then eventually going off the piece or finding something els. Terrible habit I know but hard to break.

[@HarryHas]

I’ve done it where I don’t wear something for a long time, but at least if you don’t wear it, you can sell it and get a decent amount of money back for it.

[@aledominguez9173]

another thing that I feel with backups it's that when you buy the same item but in two different colours(not basics, let say a varsity jacket, one red and another green but the same one) you end up using it less because you find it the same regardless of the color

[@hugomeyers7391]

Great video. Better to have great quality, timeless clothes than impuls bought pieces that you only wear once.

[@HarryHas]

Thanks a lot 🙏

[@MarcoMoralesF]

Your content is different. This is smart content and educate us a lot. Thank you!

[@HarryHas]

That’s great to hear. Thanks a lot for watching

[@fwoggangidk]

For my case, I'm a teenager who just got into fashion last year and I'm still forced to keep the same clothes from 2 years ago bought by my parents. I have literally no white or black T-shirts, or even a light wash jean just to tell you of my situation.

[@riley-4205]

Seen that bedale on your wishlist, i have a beaufort and love the thing for rainy days. I think a navy or olive would look class in your wardrobe.

[@HarryHas]

I’ve been weighing up the Beaufort, Ashby and Bedale and thinking the Bedale might be the one for me. We will see!

[@tuffgongsg2984]

Harry Has! Have you thought about rocking the mustache? Great accessory for a little POP

[@TrustyWonder]

Hey Harry, Great video as always! Could you please do a video about taking proper care of your clothes and laundering? I have the feeling that I f.. up my clothes despite paying attention to the care instructions. That would also make a Good addition to this video. Best wishes

[@droidzoid]

That wishlist idea is pretty good! I should start one since I've been eyeing some items that I just want to buy right off first glance. Appreciate the tip.

[@TechVdot8]

I've done tip #2 for a long time (even for stuff that is limited availability i.e. supreme drops) and it's always served me well. Usually, if I can agree to wait that long to buy something then I probably don't need/want it. On the flip side of that, there are items that I simply can't apply this rule to so I buy them right away and I end up loving and using those pieces. Great tips Harry!

[@HarryHas]

Thank you mate

[@pjf2193]

I can relate because my wardrobe is all over the place. I need to donate and sell half of it.

[@mateusschaeffer9759]

Great video. Down-to-earth,reasonable contents and inputs on the topic. Really cleared things up a little about my shopping habits.

[@aisidapatrick2781]

For me though… getting quality clothes are expensive. I live in 🇳🇬 & most clothes sold are 2nd grade/fake. I try to buy from ASOS yearly but the items are few. I have to wear them regularly.

[@falkon26]

Good points made,a few years ago i got bored of what i had and changed most of it,I found great new stuff in Next with the stag emblem,gd quality and decent price,plus some other leisure brands like NB/Canterbury and Loosheads.

[@davidhatred7275]

damn, i'm a back-up buyer! i've got three pairs of the same trews because they were on sale!

[@marioemma9818]

I’ll take pic of the item and cycle thru them for about 3weeks. Delete as I go, it’s like window shopping. Get to one or two and make a decision then sometimes I’ll be over it all by the end. Or one will make the team. It’s been working for me, taking a pic saves on data usage for me. Anyway good morning compadres, Salute!

[@HarryHas]

Sounds good 👍

[@anderskrjberg3282]

I have two sweatshirts from Ami Paris that i absolutely love, but they are quite expensive and I unfortunately haven't found a brand that makes hoodies and sweatshirts the same way as Ami, so I would love to see a video with some minimalistic high-quality alternatives to Ami

[@HarryHas]

One will be coming soon 👍

[@KidCracken]

Your name looks Danish? Norse Projects and Wood Wood make some decent quality stuff that are a little cheaper.

[@taylorcameronvfl]

With certain staples I always have to buy backups in case they stop making it

[@adrianhale7231]

I'm definitely guilty of that Backups sin 😂 I bought an oversized white sweater with a gorilla with a bucket hat on and I thought it was the coolest ever so I bought another one and a matching tshirt and now whenever I see it I'm like "What was I think?!🤦🏻‍♂️" 😂

[@MatthewHartsuch]

I always buy second hand and sales, so I don't feel remorse about having more than I need or getting rid of old clothes. Also I tend to have a small number of outfits that I wear to death and I just bring out old outfits when I want to wear something special. I also rotate shoes with my normal outfits to make the boring outfits more interesting.

[@HarryHas]

Sounds like a good plan to me

I sort of disagree with the statement pieces bit but there certainly is truth to your point. I find that having a variety of versatility works, but I do have the issue of like, certain things you just cant pair with other things which is were the neutrals come in like you said.

[@HarryHas]

At the end of the day, whatever works for you is the best option for you. Thanks for watching mate.

[@assadn5082]

What happens with me is I'll be interested in a pair of chuck 70's, for example, and find out they have a sale. I'll buy multiple pairs at an incredible deal ($20-$25 a pair) and justify it by saying to myself "Well I was about to spend $85 on one so I got 4 instead" lol This happens to almost everything in my wardrobe. I try to go minimal but fall into the trap of buying more on a crazy discount.

[@JamesLeung]

Very thoughtful video mate and points well made. I am guilty of a lot of these things, especially the buyers high!

[@HarryHas]

Thank you, James. Me too. It’s hard when you love clothing and it makes you feel so good buying it. I still do that one the most.

[@Theo-ul8qm]

Some solid points there! Personally, I’m lucky enough that I never really feel this way, and having a wardrobe that’s not too big is a huge part of that. I also feel like being picky about what you buy is important. Only buy something if you really like it and you can see yourself wearing it in many different outfits. Also, I really like buying clothing online, trying it on, and then sending it back if I’m not in love with it. In a store things can get rushed and stressful, and you can end up buying something just to not leave empty handed. Try things on in your home, when you have plenty of time, and try to style them with the clothes you already have. I think this is much better than going in and out of fitting rooms.

[@HarryHas]

I definitely prefer trying stuff on at home too. Thanks for watching

[@EthanRom]

I learned the hard way not to buy the same thing in different colors. If you suddenly decide you hate the style you basically hate like three pairs of pants all of a sudden and despite the color change, the silhouette is exactly the same. It's basically the fashion equivalent of buying all your furniture from Ikea. I eventually bought three different trousers from three different brands all varying in texture and color and they feel much better than having three of the same thing.

I'm just getting into fashion generally, and i already fall into this category. The problem being ,i shop online since i'm not from the West. So,i always buy many pieces all at once to save shipping cost and i just can't see myself buying one or two pieces at a time it has to be many. But at the end of the day i only like very few of them and the others I just wear once in a while and they mostly in the wardrobe collecting dust. What would be your advice? Considering the shipping fee and the time I'll have to wait to get them here (probably months) do you still think it's affordable to buy one or two pieces at a time? Most of the things available to us locally aren't good quality and over priced and to buy better quality once you'll have to pay like x3 hence I shop online.
