[@dlwilson6486]

You're one of a handful of content creators that provides practical, relevant, and helpful information. I appreciate that. Wishing you/ your channel growth and prosperity. You truly deserve it!

[@melaniesmith1928]

Well said!

[@adriennemoore9172]

I have been gathered yet again. My hair is now in a bun, glasses are on, notebook out and I’m sitting crisscross applesauce on the floor! Educating the masses to shop with intention and I am here for it❤️

[@DeremiBordeaux]

I’ve been way more intentional lately. I’ve realized that I want to look like a drug lord from Miami at all times. Big shades, Silk tops/scarves and tailored wide leg pants with a bomb shoe, belt & bag to set it off 😭. I need to look like I have an operation movin keys for me while I lounge on my yacht that’s parked on my backyard dock. That’s my vibe 🤣😂🤣

[@PoliticsFashion]

I just spit out my coffee lmaooo

[@anav2083]

Wow I LOVE THIS ❤

[@qd317]

I needed this. I suffer from depression as well and I tend to overspend when I'm spiraling. I don't want to tell you how much money over spent in the past 2 weeks just off of emails. I went from very intentional spending to loosing my damn mind. My credit card is smoking right now. I'm gonna put all of your tips into practice RIGHT NOW!!!

[@SheIsFearfullyWonderfullyMade]

Same… I’m on meds for the last year. It helped the depression BUT when we have a big unnecessary shopping spree then it’s actually a form of bipolar. I’m going to start psycho therapy for it

[@MsRight-sb5ds]

I love your point about shopping when we feel the need to be creative. I recently watched a video on solo date ideas. When I feel the desire to shop, I need to read my list of ideas, pick out a fabulous outfit that I ALREADY OWN and plan a date! 💞

[@PoliticsFashion]

Love that!

[@breezluize3282]

I'm a lover of all things beautiful and yes, I am a shopping addict. What has helped me in recent years is realizing I don't have to OWN something to appreciate it's beauty. I can take a picture of it and look at it at later points in the future. Unless a piece is vital and urgent to my very existence, I can gaze at it on my phone. OWNING every beautiful thing one comes across and adores/appreciates is not mandatory.

[@Bellahberry]

I am being more intentional lately. I just save in my cart for two months before I make any purchase. I no longer buy duplicates because I end up only wearing the colour I actually love and the other pieces end up being an untouched collection.🤣🤣

[@inspiredbybeauti7997]

Another outstanding video Sis! I love that you take a wholistic approach to fashion. It's not just about the hauls but also about being thoughtful consumers. You hit the nail on the head when you said in most cases our need to shop stems from our desire to be creative. So true! Thanks for bringing some real depth to the conversation.

[@PoliticsFashion]

Thanks for watching sis!

[@HR-re6mr]

I’m here for the SAT prep words and a slay! Laughing out loud! I’m just rebuilding my personal style. I’ve decluttered my closet several times. It didn’t seem as drastic that way. This includes shoes and jewelry. So I think im going to start with a capsule wardrobe and build from there! This vid is right on time! Thanks sis! You look great and glowy!

[@PoliticsFashion]

thanks so much!

[@theresavinson6466]

Same here sis! Just decluttered my closet got rid of a lot of stuff. I am building a capsule wardrobe so I have replaced some things, but thank you for the reminder about the jewelry because I have not touched that and I really need to. During this process I can tell my style has change so much I got rid of a lot of things that I thought were my style but I have realized it’s not. Thanks for your comment like I said reminding me about the jewelry box, ugh! 😝

[@HR-re6mr]

@@theresavinson6466 Good luck sis

[@contentwithcandace]

So true about the emails! I’ve clicked on tons of them and purchased eventually. And you don’t purchase right away, the merchants keep sending you emails about the same items. Oh Lord, I love a deep discount! “Shop with Intention.” Love it! 😂 😊

[@ChrisNCamsMom]

These are all wonderful tips. I swear since joining the tribe last year, your videos and insight have helped me revamp my wardrobe. I literally repeat “shop with intention” whenever I consider a purchase. We appreciate you sis! 🙌🏾

[@niashap]

MA’AM you got me together once again! And gathered allllll my edges! In the past 10 days or so, I’ve spent about $400 triggered by emails I’ve been sent from stores having “sales”…. You encouraged me to unsubscribe!!!!!! And I DID IT! First time ever. I feel so free. I feel unbothered and like I’m not being influenced to give up my coins all day. So simple but truly makes a huge impact on life. Like you said, whatever I need or things that are meant for me to have, I WILL HAVE!!!! Thanks again Tashira!

[@everythingeva4761]

Love this video. Definitely spoke to how easily we over spend on pointless items. Also don’t be influenced by the influencers. Don’t loose your personal style and pocketbook trying to keep up with the Joneses. If you over the age of 35 Sis you do not want that Clueless Payless looking Prada bag they keep pushing on IG…Sis put it down .. 🤣😂

[@gailbullard7312]

Omg this was wonderfully on point for me. Tfs. Such wisdom for this old lady. Because I can I do. I love you for this, I needed this so much, and on so many levels. Just cancelled 400.00 with 10% off cart on Saks, and 300.00 on Neimans . Yep I’m the one with tags still on things over a year or two old. Thank you young lady for your inspiration and insight, stay blessed.

[@karenmickens1239]

Yes sis! You are so right. I had to pull back many times because my late husband would say "don't you have that already" and I would be like, damn maybe.😂 It was rough. I moved back in February, and gave away at least twenty bags of stuff away and I'm still at it. KarenBritChick said she was a scarf ho,😂 well I'm a thrift shop ho. I had to stop.

[@TheFemmeCocoa]

All of these tips personally hurt my feelings and I feel called out! And that’s how I know they’re really on point 🥴 Thank you sis, I needed to hear this today 🤎

[@DemureDarlings]

😩👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@naleb2069]

This came at the right time, I opened and closed my cart today so many times. I keep telling myself you don't need it. I had to stop watching haul videos for this reason too. I like your channel because I don't feel the need to run and buy anything after 😊

[@nicoleychalmers]

I was shopping earlier today and found myself in the handbag section looking at black purses. I thought of you and what you said about shopping intentionally and said to myself “you already have a black handbag almost exactly like what you are looking at” and walked away. Then I come home and watch this video which reinforced what you said. I am trying to be intentional when I shop. I am also unsubscribing from those emails…again LOL! Thank you so much for making such great content to help us and doing it while always looking fly!

[@mobettadance2189]

This video also made me think of my duplicative black purses. 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@nicoleychalmers]

@@mobettadance2189 now I could use a nice chocolate or caramel colored bag 😁

[@Ife247]

So true…….I was in Nordstrom rack and saw a lovely pair of pants from Alice and Olivia but they did not have my size. For the entire day I was on the internet looking for the item and then it hit me…….why am I looking for a pair of pants that never existed before I saw it in the store. Got away that time, but there have been times I bought items without intention

[@gaeletchaffa1730]

Sis you are always speaking the truth! Let the church say Amen!🙌🏾

[@donnaherndon7431]

My name is Donna and I am a recovering shopoholic 🤣😂 I shop from one online retailer for petite apparel which has definitely curbed my spending & saving my money. Yeass shop my closet! I have clothes with tags on them, shoes that have never touched the ground, various accessories and that's after I decluttered. SMH Now I shop with intention. It has to be on sale & need before a want. ThankU for the video!

[@moonskumg1433]

You don't even know how much I needed this video ! It feels like sometimes I buy clothes even if I can't afford it because I'm trying to cope with my life problems 😔

[@jassfosterful]

This video just hit me at 19:50! "YOU DONT KNOW WHATS IN THERE"!!!!! SIS, I had to watch that part OVER AGAIN! I'm the people in the back! Say it Louder for them!!!!

[@denden9848]

Sis…..do we know each other??? Cause you just described me to a T!!! It’s embarrassing to admit that my “map” has no direction😔! I’ve been working on finding my style & not buying random pieces. I’m definitely applying all of your tips and making changes! Thanks so much for the advice & the love you show to the “Tribe”. 💕

[@naturalcaramelbeauty]

Sis!!!! Your channel alone has elevated my closet. Now in preparation for fall/winter I have my list of intention that only has a few classic pieces that's going to add to the value of my style. Keep them coming sis.

[@theresavinson6466]

Great advice, let’s see where I am: Declutter - ✅ Unsubscribe - ✅ - nervously 😬 Trust my style swag -✅not the email Shop my closet - ✅ Capsule wardrobe-in progress almost done Apps deleted from phone today: H&M, Aritzia, Mango, Free People- didn’t use them much anyway - kept Nordstrom, Banana Republic, NA-KD- Honestly I didn’t know what was in there until this week, but I know now honey cause a lot of it is gone OK. I have replaced a few things now don’t get it twisted, but not much. Thanks girl!! Needed this!! 😝

Yaaass boo!

[@jennifercarey9714]

Did you have to come for me like this?!? Whew! When you mentioned the need for creativity vs shopping you NAILED IT! I’m definitely going to play dress up in my closet the next time I feel compelled to shop. Anthropologie has me in a choke hold!

[@939nchs]

Love your impeccable taste! Indeed, good taste is acquired and not something with which one is born. Your studies, observations and obvious inquiries, have proven your success. Thank you so very much for your fashion critique and highly appreciated commentary on buying, proper selection, and just plain common sense! Kudos to YOU.

I recently purchased my first pair of Angela Scott shoes. I had them on my wishlist for months and I created a sinking fund for them and was waiting for a sale. The shoes were regularly $650 and got them for $450. I was intentional about my purchase and I didn’t move hastily.

I have discriminating taste so when I do find a piece that suits me, I grab all the colors. 🤣

My Goodness.... I so needed this reminder! The comment about the black handbags and loafers touched my soul lol!

Stop it girl….. you so got me on this video! When I find something I like that’s works for me…I’m in! I will buy two just to be sure I will always have it but somehow it usually works for me!

[@gallivantingchrissy]

Great video. One thing I’ve noticed to piggyback off the sale tip is often times the brand will increase the original price and the “sale price” is significantly cheaper except it’s actually the full price you’re still paying. So now when I get sale emails, I do some research to see what the full price is normally. I’ve become much more savvy when shopping and it’s partly thanks to you and these kinds of videos. Keep it up! But let’s be clear, you told us about this pixie shirt months ago and i dam sure snagged it and it’s been one of my favorite bad bitch items in my closet!

[@theadavis9510]

LIT-ER-AL-EE, as I am watching this, I am listing the colors and prints in my wardrobe along the left column and have additional columns across the top of the page identified as pants, shirts, skirts, outerwear and shoes. I am planning my next season's capsule with the goal of no more than 50 items to wear for the next three months (my take on 333...I had to be a realistic...333 became 345, then I remembered, it's bout to be cold and I said I was going to accesorize...so...50). Loved the tips!

[@dianes.3583]

You brought the heat and told the truth even if I wasn’t ready to hear it. I’ve watched this video multiple times and finally got rid of my duplicate items-two trash bags and three copy paper boxes full of perfumes worth! And I heard your voice when I was “browsing” the Pat McGrath fall sale and almost bought two palettes that I fr fr ain’t into solely because they were on sale. Thanks to you I successfully avoided wasting $160. I’m not ready to unsubscribe to emails yet but I can admit that I’m a work in progress.

[@aliciawilson5871]

Loved,loved,loved this video! Watched quite a few times so that not to miss anything and even watched prior to me going to mall to take care of a return. After all my studying of this video and beginning to practice theses tips........ this occurred to me,MOST if NOT all of my shopping addiction comes from watching my choice influencers!!!! Not willing to stop watching you and a few others, so HELP!!

[@_thechefskiss_]

Wonderful content, not at all the same tips that thousands of other content creators have shared. I really enjoyed it per usual.

[@wendydaniels8618]

Thank you again for a helpful, informative and downright free-ing video. I have gained 25 lbs over the course of the pandemic and I've had to purchase new clothes. I intend to lose some of the weight, but I'm not stressing over it but trying to live a healthy and fit life. While I strive toward that goal, I often forget what I've purchased and buy similar items. You are correct. I need to review my entire wardrobe and will be purchasing your book. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and sharing it with us. ❤️

[@jeanellreynolds7291]

Yup sis, another great video. I am a recovering addict. I get emails like crazy. Now I'm shopping with intention. I knew it was a problem when I purchased the same jeans twice because I didn't realize I had them.

I actually spent the majority of the morning unsubscribing to all of the stores and websites ! I will now move to deleting the texts as well. Thank you for the caring and loving way your videos and messages spread knowledge over these internets! I receive it! Continued Blessings and Success to you!!!

[@mobettadance2189]

That tip #3 😬 you did not have to pull my card like that. That one hit me squarely. Absolutely food for thought for me. It’s also why I feel like my closet is lacking when I keep addressing the same need (duplication) and then don’t have pieces needed to satisfy other wardrobe requirements. THAT.WAS.A.WORD

[@danielledefreitas2021]

This one was for me. HONEYYYYY! I feel attacked lol. Ok so I am a shopaholic I have know this for years and as my money grew over the years so has the habit. My closets get larger and larger and some how i never have room and constanlty running out of hangers. I am the type who has identified my sense of style and instead of getting rid of the items that no longer apply, I buy more things and hold onto old things telling myself "I might wear it down the road" the road that NEVER COMES LORDT! I'm going to do better and I want to make a point to by the end of this year I purge this damn closet.

[@brendaflowers6632]

Haven't anything help me curb my shopping habit. I love your analogy about the map. I'm watching this video twice so I can fully digest the information.

[@AlannaTaylor-Green]

i just came to the realization today and talked myself out of not proceeding with my cart over items on sale... its gonna be there its not dire to have it now. THANK YOU

[@autumnzellers3855]

Thank you for this video. Since decluttering my wardrobe I’ve been trying to shop with more intention. I’ve found myself doing the first three things even after getting rid of stuff! While watching your video I unsubscribed from several email lists and I’m trying to identify why I’m shopping in the first place. Typically I find I’m bored and I start poking around in an email or online. Going back to what you were saying about most purchases coming from an email I think it is tied to a dopamine hit, we see the email, usually something is on sale and then when we purchase we get that dopamine rush. Thanks again for helping us live with practicality and mindfulness. Wishing you all the best!

[@sharonbrown388]

I am also in recovery and I did find a lot of your tips to be very helpful. I did unsubscribe from emails. These truly were luring me in and the next thing I knew, I was ordering something that I did not need so this was the #1 tip for me. Tip #3 was very helpful as well. I will definitely keep this in mind when I find myself purchasing a duplicate item of something I already have when the item I have will serve the same purpose. Thanks Sis.

[@lolitafalana]

This comes as I contemplate a fifth cropped cardigan of the same kind from Ganni and I wait for my hundredth silk shirt to be delivered. I buy duplicates of basics, which I consider a plain cardigan to be. This is also why I snatch up any silk shirt I like as long as it's on sale...and also why I will shamelessly buy variations of a black legging pant with ankle slits at the front, inner or outer ankle at varying rises and with different cuts to the waistband. With that said, I work remotely and have no social life. Why am I buying clothes? 😆Not to mention that I think it'd be more rewarding (so to speak) if I bought fewer things that were unique to my closet than packing it with more of the same. I unsubscribed from e-mail lists over a year ago and while it helped, it's almost pointless because I still visit retail websites too! And remarketing is REAL. Those ads show up on my work computer the very. next. day. I think it's kind of dangerous for shopping to be an interest. Shopping should mostly be for necessity. I also believe that if you're shopping too much then maybe you (and I) need to spend less time on the computer. I just stopped doing hot yoga, so now I'm creating a new routine to run during my lunch hour AND go for a walk after work. That's tires me pretty well.

[@belindahearn6404]

I have watched this video four times, with this being the fourth. I am going to keep watching and sharing until I get it. I appreciate you talking to us about fashion but also giving us the reality of spending too much on things we do not need. I have gained weight and now and back in the working out world at first I said that I would not buy anything until I lost substantial weight but that does not work because I am a working professional, a friend a wife, etc, I need clothing that I can wear and feel good in but what I decided to do is taking those pieces out that I know I may lose weight and get into but am I really gonna wear it? So I am selling (the money can go toward new items) and donating because when we prep ourselves to receive from the LORD or the universe it will come..LOL. I appreciate you and appreciate your style, humor, and beauty. Be well Sis and see you in the next video.

[@jeweledcookies9680]

This was very helpful!!!! I’ve been saying that I want my wardrobe to have a color scheme so most of the pieces can be mixed and matched into different outfits. And then I ended up just buying a bunch of athletic sets from old navy for summer. Lol But this fall we gone be intentional! We building from scratch and we gone make it count!

[@keannaivey8046]

Great video. First, I love your approach on fashion. This even applies to thrifting. I will take this advice and go through my closet because I too suffer from not having a plan. A closet full of clothes and nothing to wear. As Iyanla says, the vision will pull you forward.

[@litfashioncurator3764]

Thank you for another great segment! I am guilty of shopping overload! I am a mall rat. Love malls! But I did something new for me just over the weekend - I went through a mall & shopped with intention. I was looking for a specific item & didn't find it. So, instead of buying up a bunch of things I didn't need, I didn't buy anything (but some food at the food court). I need to declutter. I need to shop my closets. I need to figure out my fashion style. It keeps changing.

[@yayablake8963]

I feel you sis, on your style keeps changing! What I have discovered is that I really do like a lot of different styles BUT I am also aware of what actually looks flattering on me! Sometimes, I like the concept of an item but it's not practical & I'm probably not going to wear it but it's cute though😄 Also, maintaining a capsule wardrobe helps with everyday styling & then keeping a list of thing's I am looking for with me at all times, that way I shop with intention & not spending money that could go towards something I really like or need. Anyways, good luck to you sis!🥰🛍👗👜👠

[@TheNattygyrl]

You are such an original and I love that! Shop with intention--the goal for the last 2 years, it will eventually stick. Now goes to look at the clothes in my closet with tags (ouch!).

I heard you in the back sis. As someone who has worked in retail, you are spilling the secrets. I shop my closet all the time so that the math is mathing.

[@maryo8511]

You are so right about the marketing techniques of claiming something is on sale, but they've already marked it up to end up with maximum profit after the so-called percentage off. I go by my knowledge of knowing what the average cost of any item is whether clothes, food, decor, etc. is, and if I find it a good 30-50% off the average price then I know I have a decent deal. I think we duplicate to show off that we can "afford" every brand out there, even though we in debt up to the wazoo. Lol. I quit trying to impress to sleep better at night. 😁

Okay I have multiple piercings like you and always wear hoops in my first hole as well. Dior has a pair of earrings similar to the chain one you have in your second hole. I didn’t buy them because I wasn’t convinced the two would look good together and then you showed - yes indeed it will LOL! I needed one more pair of gold earrings and then one more pair of silver to complete my collection, so I’m going to snatch up the Dior ones for my gold pair thanks to you ☺️. Do people really struggle to not shop and spend over their budget (asking seriously)? Who cares about these emails and sales?! My Dior earrings and Rose 31 perfume from Le Labo is it for me for luxury purchases for the rest of the year period! I will have reached my budget.

So originally, I was watching because I thought I have a shopping problem- however, I find myself buying things online that I legitimately have a need for- online food orders, or things I collect for the sake of growing my luxe collection (nice shiny baubles in different colors and slightly different styles)- or stuff I just don't have in my closet- especially because buying clothes is not something I typically do. Truth is- I feel like this shopping problem will taper off a bit when I become more grounded and feel more comfortable- especially when I feel like I've replaced what I lost.
