Thanks, Stamps for being so open and sharing your memories of your dad. For talking about your KZbin income and for sharing your tiramisu. It's all appreciated. I sometimes think you're a little weird. But, I'm a lot weird. So, that's actually a compliment.

[@JazzyCheeks]

I DO think there's a difference between trying to be eco-friendly and failing sometimes because of finances, and not caring about being eco-friendly and blaming the decision on finances. Not shaming anyone, just pointing out the difference. There are certain companies that I KNOW had/has horrible practices that I refuse to purchase from, but I only know that because they were exposed for it. Kudos to the people that do research to see where their clothes are being made. I don't feel like doing that, lol. Is it impossible for me to do that? No. WILL I do it? Also, no, but that's a decision I'm owning.

“Being able to shop sustainably and ethically is a luxury”. This is so damn true

[@LittleGreenPearl]

Kristy There are thrift stores!

[@caraarmstrong5341]

@@LittleGreenPearl true but not everyone has access to a nearby thrift shop

[@LittleGreenPearl]

Cara Armstrong If local thrift stores are a problem, there are many online second hand shops like Poshmark just to name one. Kelly said she sells on Poshmark! They’re nice pieces for a fraction of the price. It’s not much more expensive than Wish (comparing similar styles), and it could be much cuter and higher quality.

[@VainHarmony]

Thrifting is not for everyone all the time. Not everyone has the luxury of time. Not everyone benefits from an availability of certain articles of clothing they need in their size. Even with online thrifting, not everyone has access to the technology. All of these are obstacles to people prioritizing survival in a capitalist society. It's not that hard to admit that not everyone is privileged enough to accomplish ethical goals under capitalism. To assert otherwise is ignorant. If you know, you know. If you don't, then take the time to educate yourself on the hardships of others and hold those in power accountable for the cruelty they orchestrate. Depop is not the solution.

[@LittleGreenPearl]

VainHarmony Agreed. Thrifting is not for everyone, but it’s hardly inaccessible for middle class people. If you’re in a less than ideal place and need to pick up a Walmart something or other, that’s /fine/. My position is just that for people who can give up some convenience for ethics, do it. If not, buy the Walmart shirt that’ll help you work a job that’ll put food on the table. I don’t see why both our statements cannot mutually exist.

[@shaeb5820]

The responsibility for fixing the environment needs to be pushed more on the companies, not the consumer. Even if we all shopped sustainably most of the time, that effect is nowhere near what it could be if the corporations stepped up and did their part to make a difference. We should focus our energy shaming companies instead of individual people.

[@Lolikins]

Exactly. Like, I get the whole shtick about "if we all stop buying X product then there will be an impact" but the fact of the matter is we won't ALL stop buying that product for any number of reasons, some of which are what Kelly mentioned in her video: money. Shopping sustainably, ethically, organically etc IS a luxury that many people cannot afford, especially in these unprecedented times we're going through. I can stop buying h&m and using plastic straws all I like but if the majority of people do not and cannot, my impact will be non-existent.

[@islandtingles41]

I highly disagree with this. Should companies be ethical and sustainable? Absolutely. But they wouldn’t make any money if the masses weren’t buying their products. We vote with our dollar every day, and acting like we don’t make a difference is just an excuse to be lazy

[@HSZ_5]

Virginia Sosa completely agree. Putting pressure on these companies is needed, but taking away what they need (read: our dollar) plays a massive role. We need to push each other to do better and be better. ✊🏼💖 If anyone is looking for some great sustainable shopping apps: Depop (streetwear, vintage and designer), Vestiaire (all things designer and bougie in excellent condition), Good on You (a search engine that tells you exactly how sustainable any brand is), Vinted (UK), and Poshmark (US). 🌍💚

[@wontoms]

@@islandtingles41 Capitalism is the root of all evil

[@rapdancesing]

No one needs to shame anything or anyone but we have to face reality. Companies will never have an incentive to change if they can count on your dollar regardless. Consumers using their money as a political tool is the most practical way straightforward way to make change. Lord knows we can’t trust govt to take care of these issues.

Losing someone you're so close to like a parent is so hard. I know when I lost my grandmother a few years ago (she lived with us for quite a while and was basically another parent figure), I didn't deal with it because I told myself that everyone needed me to be strong and help them deal with everything. While I don't necessarily regret that choice, it is taken me years longer to deal with that grief and loss than I think it would have otherwise. Take care of yourself, and never be afraid to maintain your boundaries around that grief. And don't let other people (especially random strangers on the internet such as myself!) tell you how to process or feel.

[@KellyStamps]

Thanks for the advice and sorry to hear about your grandmother! The grief comes and goes. The day he passed was the worst day of my life. the following days were even worse because I was inundated with paperwork and closing out his financials. I'm still doing that work and there are many loopholes and missing things. I noticed that staying busy today and filming a couple of video helps me not get too depressed, but I will certainly take a break if needed soon. The good thing about youtube is that I can film a lot in advance, take a break and just upload back to back when I feel up to it.

I felt the same way at 24... 11 years later I’m SOOO happy that I do not have any children. Best. Decision. Ever!

I bet!

“I will babysit your kids but you best believe I’m not pushing anything out my envelope”. Thanks Kelly. People need that reassurance. Everyone always looks down on women for unfair reasons

[@keira2378]

i didn’t even realize the video was 17 minutes long i could listen to her talk for hours

[@MAMAMIIMII]

I’m soo sorryy for your loss Kelly 💔 I know your dad is so proud of you ! You are such a great person 💙 #stampede

[@KellyStamps]

Thank you 💛

[@MAMAMIIMII]

Kelly Stamps 💜💜💜

[@stephaniefromtx9466]

She is me in another form. I like this girl. Damnit I wish she was my friend. It’s hard to find people like ourselves.

[@KB-oe3sb]

bold of kelly to assume we don’t want to listen to her for 10hrs. my deepest condolences about your father btw, he raised a great daughter.

[@NaomiIris]

Thrifting is better than buying sustainable. There are enough clothes on the planet fabricated to fulfil everybody’s needs if only we learned how to swap them between ourselves and reuse them

[@angelikabatwoman]

Yes yes yes! 🌺

[@pinkyamerlli]

We have this back in my home town. We put used clothes we dont want anymore in a big bag and than someone picks it up. They pick out what they like and put in what they dont like anymore. Someone comes pick it up and so on.

[@54hitpoints19]

I need to get into thrifting as well. Simple clothes for everyday use will go a long way, and they don't hurt your wallet compared to $50+ clothing pieces that are just like anything else. :/

[@tafidiy662]

Omg l totally agree with you. I’m trying to recycle/ upcycle my clothes and l show people how to do this in my YT videos

[@thesocialrant2528]

"I live like I am still broke because thats just the way to go" LOL I love this line.

[@hishamahmed21]

Girl! You’re literally making your dad SUPER proud right now by demonstrating his strength through you literally cracking jokes while making a video just to spread happiness! If my dad passed away I’ll probably will look like a zombie 3 days later 😂 Thank you for this video and thank you for being you and thank for everything that you do and for also being so transparent with your KZbin income, you’re incredibly inspirational and amazing and even more now after watching this video and knowing what I know now!❤️

[@steph.91]

OMG Kelly, I am so sorry for your loss. Your dad blessed us by being on this earth. Wherever he is, I'm sure he'll leave his mark there as well. Sending my love to you and your family ❤️

[@savannahrosella6557]

If you ever need to take a step back from everything for a little while for a break we’ll be here for you

[@KellyStamps]

@Himmarshee Street Live Not exactly, I actually upload regularly and see the feedback on my analytics to know. As long as my video gets high views in the first 8 hours and and gets clicked on often, it'll go to the front as usual. KZbin is rooting for me (literally go to their instagram 😅) I am resting though, I recorded a couple of videos today to schedule out in advance so I can just relax and focus on healing.

[@Nwachukrew]

Kelly Stamps wow hi kelly 🥺you’re my role model, I pray to become successful like you and your transparency is amazing , you’re going places gal! And making KZbin friends scare me too it’s really hard for me to trust people but thank god we ain’t in the beauty industry

[@Nwachukrew]

Kelly Stamps sorry for your loss, keep grinding your dad would be so so proud ! I love seeing my fellow black women thrive 🥰🤩

[@BEATSBYTHEMOB]

I’m sorry Kelly But I’m pretty good at this I see twins coming from you But I Also see overwhelming happiness from these twins Ok bye

[@tajashania]

just when i thought this day had gone to sh*t my queen kelly saves the day with an upload 🙌🏾 also i’m so sorry to hear about your dad, stay strong girl, sending my love ❤️

[@KellyStamps]

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

[@ericmanuel3789]

Gurrrrl, you answered those questions while showing beauty and grace with also elegance and taste!

[@KellyStamps]

miss america has arrived

[@chaghetti]

... she’s miss United States.

[@danielacmoran]

When Kelly said that her day starts at 11 am.. I felt that. Employers do have high expectations of wanting us in so earllyyyy

[@flaskandpen]

I left full-time teaching to escape the 5 am wake ups! Now work 3 days a week for half as much and it is totally worth it 😆

[@danielacmoran]

@@flaskandpen girl go you! I aspire to quit my full time and do the same soon

[@flaskandpen]

@@danielacmoran Yayyy! Best of luck!!

[@FoxyRockerGamer]

Cheap clothing was being discussed on the TV today in the UK as well and thing is when it comes to clothing and even food that is ethical the price goes up by a ton. Everyone would make the switch if it was cheap, but it's not. My family can't afford that lifestyle and we are pretty average, so unless you have a high income you cannot be expected to pay those prices. I would love to do my part, but the industry betrays itself.

[@KaboodleDoodle]

FoxyRockerGamer I love our charity shops in the UK tho

[@lostmybadger]

kelly just said she makes 15k a month in the same video tho lmao

[@sjx5120]

Nah, educate yourself on it more, it’s very possible ! (Coming from a broke person)

[@KaboodleDoodle]

@@sjx5120 yeah tbf I'm a student and I never bought firsthand clothes, there were a few charity shops near my accommodation but I ordered most of my stuff secondhand on depop, it's not very hard to stop buying new

[@CeliaGercovich]

This setup is SO aesthetically pleasing. I'm going to buy a bamboo plant and tiramisu.

[@halibee7008]

I know this is an old video, but don’t feel bad for not wanting kids. I love mine but pregnancy is invasive and painful. It’s not for everyone and that’s okay.

[@levi_bernhardt]

Person: ‘Thoughts on sustainability ‘ Kelly: ‘Moves away her tiramisu in the plastic container’

[@austonr]

That's wild you gave the exact amount you make (maybe $3 off 😂) on youtube. I've never seen that even from some of the most transparent KZbinrs. They always give a wide range. That was inspiring! Thanks for that!

[@signeherdesang6326]

Hi I just became your 320 000 subscriber and it felt very pleasing, yes it did.

[@GM-ue2hw]

When she said that her dad passed away three days ago , my heart dropped. She’s such a Idk Strong woman yess MissKelly❤️

Tiramisu > crusty men....all day every day..and I say this as someone who's never tried tiramisu (yet) 😅

[@lamonochromatique]

It's the most delicious dessert. I highly recommend! 😍

[@SoFirmStudios]

I agree and I've never tried tiramisu nor men.

[@missrelaxed3872]

Please try it !!! You will love it!

Love men and tiramisu, but the failure rate of men is much higher. Give me that tiramisu!

[@angelikabatwoman]

@@KellyStamps I find it sad that you're being so bitchy about a topic that's really important, and no one even shamed you, they just told you

[@kaimontes]

[@hedarhee2002]

I never realise you were in the Air Force, that's amazing! You've achieved so much!!!

when she fed us some Tiramisu, I felt the love.

[@lenapetrova]

"I'm NOT pushing anything out of my envelope!" - LOL!!!!!!! Love it.

[@Sara_taylork]

Your ability to remain calm and stoic while speaking of your fathers passing shows your true strength and internal peace. He must be so proud of the woman you are. My condolences for your loss, Kelly. Stay strong & keep inspiring ❤️

[@ToviaOgun]

We will all choose Tiramisu because we need it for survival but we don’t need men for survival 😂😂😂I am planning on going to Italy just to go eat Tiramisu and tag Kelly on it

[@EllieEtanga]

If you come to Milan, I know a good spot😂😂🥰

Has tiramisu for the first time on my fiftieth birthday thanks to Kelly Stamps.

[@ToviaOgun]

Babo you should, it’s taste just right

[@averychaco8831]

The rich only live off about 30% of their income! Invest the rest into your channel and retirement! Make sure you're taking out your taxes out in advance from your KZbin paycheck so you don't get caught off guard next year! I hope your success continues! Take care of yourself and enjoy that well-earned tiramisu ☕🍰 (there's no tiramisu emoji on my phone im trying)

[@kalvin9027]

I tried tiramisu and filmed a KZbin video of it.... sis its not what I expected. YUCK
