Rating, roasting, & decluttering my thrift flips and self-sewn clothes

I've sewn and altered so much of my own clothes the last few years... but some of them don't really get worn and it's time to be honest about that.

That red dress with the buttons is gorgeous and looks so good on you! I think it'd look great with combat boots and a slouchy cardi

The grey top also looked black on camera and was really flattering. Could it be worth dying it a different colour?

And the white shein dress is so pretty! Could you add buttons to make the arms more comfortable? I feel that'd be a piece you'd regret getting rid of

And sorry for all the separate comments, the youtube app was absolutely not letting me edit my comments. But hey I guess it's good for the algorithm right 😅 ✂️✂️

I love that puffsleeve top, wouldn't a bow in the back solve the fit issue with the sleeves being loose? For me it helped with some of the puff sleeves tops that I have. You're sooo skillful. Would you bother doing a how to start sewing/ altering your clothes video? 😅 I only do some little handsewing projects now (mending, reattaching straps to be shorter) my level is ultra beginner.

Where exactly would you place the bow? I can’t quite picture what you mean haha I don’t have any plans to do “how to sew” videos outside of the few thrift flip videos I’ve done, it just doesn’t interest me and so many skilled people are already making that content. But thanks for the vote of confidence haha!

@@OutfitRepeater in the back upper side of the sleeves, so it helps to stay on, a lot of puff sleeves tops come with this design by default. Not the ones that only have a tie back, this can be only a small string above the back panel of the dress. Maybe it's not the best solution but I can move around freely and my sleeves stay put.

Interesting stuff 🙂 I hope you do find a way to remake the patchwork skirt. I think what you’re saying about the blue is right: it’s hard to tell on my phone screen, but it seems to be dominating the other colours. I’m guessing that they’re all in the Soft Autumn palette, but most of the colours are pretty close together on the colour wheel (analogous ish!) whereas the blue is further away (almost complementary). But again, it’s hard to see for definite.

Hi ,can i give some tips ? I think the black dress with the lace centerpiece fits well and maybe you can sew a black piece under the lace so that it is less revealing and the sleeves a bit shorter? furthermore, the skirt is very nice , but I would wear it myself with a t-shirt, simple top , otherwise it becomes too much of a good thing , gr Sigrid
