All in favor of more Natalie in my videos say “I” 🙋‍♂

[@sunnycheeks4409]

"I"🙋‍♂️

[@mufasamouthwash]

I!

[@jorschachblatant1934]

That’s Aye, that do annoy me, but I.

[@bradjohnson8174]

👁

[@_lexsan]

🙋‍♀️ yes please! She’s hilarious

[@alexlillo7191]

Tbh I’m in love with Matt’s content. It’s so satisfying and simple. It helps me disconnect from the world. Never stop doing videos like this!

[@timothyevo]

Seriously! I've been transitioning to minimalism and wardrobe is the last area to tackle 🤞🏾

[@geemail369]

The very fact we actually _need_ to disconnect needs some attention too. ✌🏻🌱

[@shyu5249]

I wish more people watch Matt. Best minimalism and productivity KZbinr ever.

[@marvin2678]

simple?

[@viktorijamarozaite1408]

You know Matt, I gotta be honest. Most youtubers that I watch make me feel very bad about myself. And I know they don't do it intentionally, but it just happens. However, whenever I watch your videos I just get filled up with this warmth, kindness and motivation for life. You really show us the true you, you're very honest and transparent and you're not afraid to show your ups and downs. I really admire that and it just brings so much joy to me. I hope to meet you one day and thank you personally for the positive impact that you've had on my life. Thank you so so so much for just being you. ❤️

[@rebeccaoudt3522]

100% this. Eventough I'm not immediately interested in the topic Matt talks about, I just watch because I know that his video's never fail to make me feel good :)

[@chadbailey7038]

Same. 1 pair of jeans a years. Seldom wash. Works perfectly 👌🏾 …and cost effective

[@albaya1641]

I really wish Matt could do the same video for minimalistic woman wardrobe :)

[@Darksoulsnoob]

Ooh yes please!

[@kate880728]

Yessss! Maybe a collaboration?

[@Sundazs]

Yes!! I was about to comment the same.

[@amberkhan3692]

Omg yes

[@Meow-zu5si]

Same same same!!! That would be awesome!

[@nerygabrielnery]

A couple of notes on this video: 1. I loved it since the beginning when Natalie say 'no, they don't. Nobody calls you that'. 2. Matt really doesn't spare money on buying repeated clothes. 3. Matt is incredibly good at taping and editing videos. It is impressive how much work it took for him to put so many different clothes on just to show us his outfit, and then edit and merge all the shoots to create a concise and coherent video for us to enjoy. Congratulations, Matt!

[@beingmyself000]

I’m in my 40s and fashion was of a competitive nature ever since high school. When we were at our lockers in the morning we would actually see who was wearing the most money. New outfits everyday and making sure that you didn’t repeat for a while. It’s been that way ever since. You couldn’t imagine what my closet looks like. But things have changed since covid. I’ve been selling and giving away for the past couple of years. Priorities changed and I’ve been working my way towards a full clean out. Minimalist & slow living. Videos like this are a good confidence boost.

[@padmo1531]

My clothes are basically all from Uniqlo. I find them simple, affordable, and comfortable. My shoes are from new balance since middle school. I am a major fan, they are the most comfortable shoes I have ever tried. I really love the idea of a minimalist wardrobe spreadsheet. Gonna try writing one tonight. Love your videos!!!

[@malachigrindle7063]

Yep. When I was skinny I wore mostly uniqlo and target. Now it's just target lol

[@amberbiggs]

I liked the spreadsheet, I'll have to make one up for myself. I liked the idea of simply reordering the same thing, that you already know worked well for you in the past. For some reason, when a clothing item has run it's course, I never just automatically reorder the same item but feel the need to try and replace it with something else. It really helps to make sure you stick with brand's staple pieces, rather than go for whatever is trending that season.

[@Mariah-Blue]

I need a female version of this video asap

[@muatta]

Finally. Looks good Matt. Because of you I have also become a minimalist and an essentialist. Btw, congratulations on your long awaited wedding.

[@LoganNavarro]

Really love the minimalist wardrobe videos. I really have to make a spreadsheet for myself. Matt your intros are awesome, i can't imagine anyone eles pulling these kind of intros off 😅

[@gerihenry2261]

So good!! I feel like you shared such good reasons for why you own what you do. A lot of wardrobe shares don't do that, and for those us trying to downsize, it's great to keep in mind the reasons we want to own a certain item. So thanks, Matt! Will share with my husband and will also keep your tips in mind for my own downsizing.

[@AuthenTech]

I rock the 510's, they very nice. also good and cheaper option, plus great stretch, goodfellow skinny fit 💪

[@asifmuhd]

I thought I was not a minimalist but u showed me that I was living my life like a minimalist this long 😂😂

[@luis6589]

Really love your videos Matt! The way you treat the most daily tasks of the day it is simply inspiring. I also find stressful choosing my clothes, taking into account that you need to combine the colours, choose certain patterns or find the appropriate tonality. Sometimes you just want to wake up and get into the job and, by having preselected clothing, you can just recognise the appropriate clothes by looking at the weather or the place you are going to.

[@Nero-zq6ic]

I finally got my minimum wardrobe setup perfectly thanks to videos like this. Really helped stream line my life. Thanks for the content matt!

[@0000Ashley0000]

Love Nat!😂❤ We need her in all of your videos!!!

[@GyanPrakash]

His videos are so minimalistic that it feels unreal 🤗

[@omonteso]

This is nice, but nearly all the brands make you replace them every year or so. I’d recommend American Giant’s t shirts, 1620 foundation pants or Revtown jeans, a solid pair of boots (Nicks or Whites) and an all around shoe (samba). Add a Carhartt Detroit jacket or a thicker jacket from Carhartt or Patagonia hemp workwear. These will last YEARS! Get an automatic dress watch (cheaper per wear) than a piece of tech that goes outdated in 1-2 years.

[@raulxgallegos]

You inspired me to have a minimalist wardrobe. Keep up the great content.

[@Nefertsukia]

Quality, humor and consistency. Gotta love this channel! Also, I'd never heard of pockets within pockets. I feel like I'm missing out on some cool secret, but it's probably something that only some men's clothes have. Jealous!

[@mgdonor]

You never disappoint us , thanks a lot man for making this types of contents for us , we learn a lot of things through your videos 💗😍

[@GabeMillerMusic]

Your recommendation of J.Crew Factory t-shirts years ago was kind of a game changer for me... I'm a small dude who always has a hard time finding clothes that fit, and they ended up being freaking perfect (XS slim fit). And your closet looking like that of a cartoon character gave me permission to do the same lol.

[@VaydaladaVodalada]

He said J. Crew, not J. Crew Factory you poor ass.

[@goat8614]

Can you link which ones you get? Really interested in getting rid of all my super shrunk down shirts

[@lucy2steele]

Does Natalie have a KZbin? As a female, I’d love to see her perspective on a fashionable, smaller-ish wardrobe

[@victoriacarrington1125]

Matt! We need a women's version of this minimalist wardrobe - PLEASE!!

[@clioh_ethmenel]

check out Justine Leconte. her videos on how to build a capsule wardrobe helped me a lot in building my own minimalist wardrobe.

[@cag324]

Christina Mychas

[@vixikie]

There are other minimalistic youtubers out there, many who are women and does videos about it.

[@Noa......]

Define "women's" version.

[@PTRAINBOY]

​@@Noa......an actual woman.. you know.. not the cosplayer one .

[@imar4ok]

I like the idea of not owning as few items as possible, but to use everyone that you own. Good to see you back!

[@josafatmoya4067]

What you say at the end about inspiring is interesting as I've known you since 2018 and you gave me a prespective on life with minimalism and these days I'm rewatching your videos and you inspire me Matt, thanks for everything.

[@satxrnhimself]

As always, great and fun content from Matt

[@tx4realtor]

Just bought every single adult in my family cashmere beanies from Jcrew for Christmas, thanks for the idea, Matt!

[@josafatmoya4067]

I loved the video, I remember that the first one you made of your wardrobe was one of the first I saw on the channel and you inspired me, thank you really thank you for existing matt, minimalist hug.

[@junaidafzaal4460]

Thank you Matt for your great content. I am an admirer of your work from pakistan.It is very helpful and it has impacted my choices for good. It would be great if you could make videos regarding of some topics like 1- how do you manage your hygiene minimally like (managing haircuts and beard , skincare, shaving etc) 2- how do you manage your home (groceries and supplies , laundry ) 3- how do you manage your office like finding people, how do you pay them etc

[@kimeu_fred]

This dude can create great minimalist fashion content,wow

[@filvaliulin]

The king is back!

[@rachelkhampton]

I started being more intentional about what I buy clothes wise since I travel for work now. I definitely made a list of things that look good, but can be paired with just about everything else in my closet. I don't try to specifically limit what I have, but I very much agree with the intent of the purchase before going through with it.

[@itsblakematthew]

always pushing me to make better videos. Thank you, sir! 💪🏻

[@SackundHodie]

When I was 17 or so I thought wow this guys life is so Organized, I want mine too be just like his. Now I think „this guy keeps an excel for his wardrobe? .. tf“

[@SackundHodie]

(No hate I love how this lifestyle fits too him but it’s just not for me)

[@thenewtheory]

@@SackundHodie it's actually a very smart thing to do: makes one conscious about what they have, what they need and what they want.

[@angelaaunzo6058]

I love it! I’m going to start doing it 😊😂

[@akhisalaam]

Ever since you showed your Hanes black briefs about 4 years ago, I only buy those. They are still holding up to this day. haha

[@bilalahmad2402]

Love the new/refreshed video style!

[@reaper3264]

Loved that intro 😂😂😂 keep it up man

[@annarasko]

Quality is super important when you only have a capsule/minimalist wardrobe. Your clothing items get used and washed so much more often.

[@cringesh1t427]

What kind of material would be best for the constant washes? I own mostly all cotton and they fade pretty quickly after 3-4 washes

[@annarasko]

@@cringesh1t427 polyester materials hold up better, even cotton lasts longer if you let them air dry!

[@angelortega9091]

Hey Matt, i definitely enjoy your videos. For the last few years I've been improving my wardrobe, so these recommendations come in handy, thanks. I'd like to create content like you, i admire you. Keep up the good work and great intro by the way.

[@andreaescobar6551]

You literally put a link for every single item. This is actually amazing 😀

[@gustavomarques2997]

Here's what I did to simplify my clothing: there is a concept called "capsule wardrobe" which helps you create a minimalistic wardrobe. If you know how to create that and if you know which color season you belong to and only wear those colors, you actually can create a basics wardrobe that suits you and isn't all white, grey and black. Knowing your color season is simple, just check if your skin is warm or cooled toned and if it has high or low chroma (forget about hair and eye color, those are a myth). You will ALWAYS look good on that group of colors and since all the colors belong to the same color season, everything you put together will match, so decision fatigue also does not happen. Knowing your color season and buying clothes with just those colors (usually you choose 3 neutrals and 2-3 accent colors, all from that season), you can pretty much mix and match everything and not have a wardrobe that looks like a bar code ahah. Example: I'm an autumn, I have warmed toned skin and low chroma, my neutrals are charcoal/warm black, tans and off whites and warm browns, while the accents I choose are teal blue, rust and army green. I also have some red and mustard yellow hoodies, but I almost only wear those colors. Then, all you need to do is to buy basic, timeless and simple pieces of clothing in those colors.

[@D_Jilla]

Having a l capsule warbrobe is the best bang for your buck. It's best to have clothing pieces that are interchangeable

[@gustavomarques2997]

@@D_Jilla yes, it's very economic too!

[@jmarjeta]

Thanks for great vids and inspiration. I am currently trying to down size my wardrobe by wearing pieces out and not replacing them if possible. Living in Finland the base collection needed is quite a bit larger, but the principle is the same, only buy what you are going to wear. All new items should also follow similar rules as you mentioned for matching etc Keep up the good work!

[@gunner0213]

You've come a long way since the last one of these videos! Been a subscriber for a long time and still enjoy your content very much. Congrats!

[@cameleoncom]

Great video, wished I could buy some of those items as the womans version, but of course most of the time they only have other not half as simple and useful hoodies then. As a woman I sometimes feel cut off minimalism in this style cos its all cropped or colored or oversized etc. So it is much more already designed for you to buy more "special" stuff as its much more difficult to find just "normal" simple clothing. So just in case you ever consider to find like the women version of your wardrobe and do a video with that I imagine a lot of women would be really happy 🙂

Thanks for the info. Excited to try my own version of this!

[@D_Jilla]

Haven't watched the whole video, but when it comes to minimalist style the best advice is stick to timeless classics: A well fitted T-shirt, suit coat, bomber jacket, chinos, wool trousers, V Neck sweater, Oxford dress shoes, white leather sneakers, derby boots etc. These classics are things that will never go out of style and you will never change out unless they wear out; so don't go cheap and take care of your clothes.
