[@catsboots803]

[@sesshomoru8347]

sailor moon 🖤

[@floramarzin6511]

Adibou was really a staple in my childhood

[@mimic-me]

webkinz and warrior cats

[@seliphoftheend]

Def Lego ninjago

[@GossamerAtara]

gus's little giggles after seeing how happy you were for finding those shoes, you two are so adorable

[@MLiesel]

I was just coming here to comment on how delightful that moment was. He was so happy for her, and that was so heartwarming!

[@brynnabailermango]

"I'm not problematic! I'm from Ohio!!" hahaha me every trip😂

[@KathleenIllustrated]

hahaha what is wrong with us

[@pippygoose]

My new moto 😂. Needs to be needlepoint, t-shirt, buttons, stickers. ❤

[@christinamann3640]

I’m pretty sure there’s a personality type that is known for that (pretty sure it’s mine) eg. someone says “happy birthday” and we automatically say, “thanks, you too” and the next second we hear the windows reboot chime in our brains 😂

[@AliFinNoble]

No shade to that vintage shop that you first went to but as somebody who specializes in fashion history and accessories I laughed out loud when I saw the embroidered purse labeled at 1800s. That absolutely is no earlier than 1930s and it's most likely from the mid 1940s. 😅 And that price woo doggy that's nuts. I wish places like this would hire somebody like me to just go over their stock and help them label and price things more appropriately ever few months.

[@gandhijis880]

This shop is known for being problematic…

[@encapsulated_nomad1359]

the way guys get's all giddy and excited seeing you get giddy and excited over finding a gem at the thrift store #goals

[@KathleenIllustrated]

hehe he’s the best hype man

[@mangospade]

Kathleen, your videos scratch the itch in my brain that Jenna Marbles videos used to scratch. thanks for that

[@KathleenIllustrated]

As a longtime Jenna fan, I’m so honored that you feel that way! 🥹

[@99cpZebralily]

I watch a lot of thrifting content because it's inspiring and really relaxing to me. But you have become my #1 favorite youtuber, ThriftTube or otherwise. You're so funny and positive and I love your colorful style! Best channel ever

[@adestiney]

I love how you still show us the journey through each store even when you don’t come out with any finds. It makes thrifting so much more realistic

[@shannonmain823]

Kathleen: "It's 1996. You're in preschool." Me: *cries in genX*

[@misosaltee]

Same 😂 every fashion channel our age is all about telling you what not to wear to avoid looking frumpy. I unfollowed all of those when I found Kathleens channel. I love how she’s more like “have a great time expressing yourself, and here are some fun ways to do that”

[@rochelle2758]

Yep. When I was four I was watching The Electric Company.

[@MelliaBoomBot]

Lol yes.. I was in third year of uni as a mature student on top of that 😩

[@christinamann3640]

1996: me in early 20’s and enjoying Buffy the Vampire Slayer as it first aired.

[@debbiedrawsfunny]

Yeah my gen x ass is always over here on youtube feeling elderly as hell

[@needsthesun]

Gus’s reaction when you found those shoes was so genuine! He was just as excited as you were! 🥳

[@opeitsmeganlee]

A couple months ago the Petz game nostalgia hit me like a TRUCK and my boyfriend helped me download a copy of Petz 5 onto my computer. It has been 10/10 GREAT VIBES since. Love the video!

[@lucylc6936]

OMG they made a computer game of the book Madeline that this just made me remember, you would go on all these adventures and make chocolate and ride a flying carpet I was obsessed. probably the year 2002. I’m gonna go on a full blown rabbit hole trying to find that now. Also that skirt is the most amazing purple

[@KathleenIllustrated]

I played that exact game with this same preschool friend!!!!!! 🤯🤯🤯

[@SamanthaBallard]

I had that game too and forgot it existed until right now so thank you hahaha

[@EileenMeehan-q4g]

My very favorite childhood toy was a Japanese doll that came with three different Kabuki wigs. My sister (who was a Navy nurse during Vietnam)bought it for me on shore leave in Japan and sent it all the way to Cleveland. And that is how old some of your viewers are!

[@nathanwackett7625]

I PLAYED DOGZ FOR THE PC!!! loved dressing them up and the garden…

[@saraluckhardt3927]

I was a Frogger girl in the early 2000s 🤣 but only when I went to my best friend Jennifer's house bc we didn't have a computer until I was in high school lol. After the computer version we would hop around her room with her little sister... good times

[@wlammy4ever]

Ahhh im always so genuinely stoked when a new Kathleen vid pops up😊😊😊

[@venlakirahvi]

I'm sosososo sooo happy your channel got recommended to me. I'm having so much fun here!

[@KathleenIllustrated]

aw hey you! i'm so glad we found each other!

[@Tackleboys]

PETZ shirt!? New hairdoo!? Kathleen is in her ELEMENT!

[@setodd2098]

Your thrift videos are my favorite but these travel ones are the cherry on top!

[@Deafkid97]

I LOVE out of the closet! So happy you thrifted in my city!

[@misosaltee]

Omg Kathleen, I love your new hair colour! Video games didn’t really exist when I was really little, so I was really into drawing and guess what: dress up 😂

[@Collectpeanuts]

OMG! That Snoopy shirt!

[@Collectpeanuts]

Two Snoopys? You spoil me! Also, did find me a man you finds me Snoopy, so we're both lucky!

[@rachelsmith3592]

The Catz and Dogz t-shirt unlocked a vault of memories I didn’t know I had 🥹

[@rhiannon8109]

Me and my sisters used to get up as soon as we were allowed and race downstairs to use the computer to play the build a bear game where you and your bear (or cat in my case) would just wander around the town and play games and go to the bank abd upgrade your house and hang out lol. I distinctly remember getting a motorbike and a garage and feeling like the coolest kid in town aha

[@emcatz]

Yay! Love the travel thrift with me’s!!

[@AntonWongVideo]

lol "I'm from Ohio" 11:50 omg core memory unlocked!!!

[@elvenafae]

I clicked so fast! You are my new favorite KZbinr for your style and thrifting videos. Coincidentally you’re local to me, we’ve both lived in the bay area, also love vintage clothing. It was nice seeing you go back to your old stomping grounds and for me to relax after going to the bins here on Brice for the first time ever lol

[@teetaloo]

so fun to see you go to vacation! my friend lives near coit tower so whenever i go visit her i go to vacation & last time i was there i had just started watching your channel and i saw this clown sweater that instantly reminded me of you, i wish it had still been there for you

[@MelliaBoomBot]

those black sandals, stunning. that purple skirt...gorgeous. kate bush did a song called Them Heavy People and she wears a shiny purple pencil skirt in that which is just mwah! top stuff K!

[@catherineb6565]

Found me a colbat blue tunic shirt with bits and harness 🐎 last week when thrifting. Snapped that puppy up and praised (in addition to thrift gods) your intuition on upcoming trends! 💗

[@bri.forcier]

Such a fun video, thanks for taking us along!! That silk skirt is so cool

[@Phaagraphic]

Awwww I moved to Scotland this year but fly back into San Francisco for a visit home on Tuesday and your drive and bike ride made me so excited and nostalgic!!! Love your vlogs so much thanks for taking us along!

[@morelemonpledge469]

You really do just give me the vibes of the big comfy couch girl I think that's why it feels like I've been watching you my whole life lol 😂

[@maya-gur695]

Hello, I came here from your collab with Luisa and have been binge watching your channel for the past few days. I really love your vibes.

[@fractalreverie]

"Waist cape" was my 80's Barbie's fave look❤

[@jmjanacek4335]

That was fun!! I really really loved the set you got on the last video!! So lucky!!❤❤❤

[@megansimonson]

If those shoes worked for you, imagine adding shoe clips to them for extra razzle dazzle! 👌💥 edit: THE FURBY BOLO!!!!

[@Blaire_Shoe]

Oh no, I thought the pets shirt was from a movie or something at first, but as soon as you said "game" a memory unlocked. Absolutely wild. What a game. What a time.

[@nattiemae]

You found such awesome stuff!!!! I think where I live seems to lack the good stuff! Loved the SF content so much!!! ❤

[@glamknittykitty]

Every time I watched you sit on the couches, I kept shrieking “BUT WHAT ABOUT THE BEDBUGS?!?” 😱😱😱 I love SF, my favorite thrifted items came from SF and would love to go back ❤

[@kittycrochets]

Wait a gosh darn minute. How did I forget about that game? You just unlocked some memories for me.

[@kayliewatchesthings]

came for the thrift content and goofy giggles, but the cat chat is what really keeps me 😍

[@christinamann3640]

That skirt is such a vivid purple it’s amazing.

[@floralspectre]

I didn’t think I played Catz and/or Dogz, but when I saw the footage a whole flood of nostalgia just hit me :0 new childhood memory unlocked!!

[@cloudgoose]

PLEASE bless us with a video about your favorite video games! it could be the farming sims or other games you’re playing now (would love reccs!!), or ones you loved in the past. I would just love to hear more about your gaming, as a fellow adult woman gamer!

[@christinefears5309]

I haven't thought about Petz since the 90s! Having memories of painting my Catz purple and green...

[@pixiebeam]

Wow you just unlocked a core memory of mine with the 90s pets game 😸✨Another game I loved playing was Kid Pix 🎨🖌️

[@0kieD0kiee]

Your music choices in this video are elite- BDG? Louis Zhong???? Yes. YES

[@KathleenIllustrated]

@@0kieD0kiee only the best of the best! 😎🎶

[@pottell]

I'm going to SF for the first time next month. This is the first time I've ever taken literal notes from a youtube video 🤓

[@DivestedConfessions]

Very interesting, enjoy and appreciate your style and perspective. I’m here in San Francisco since the 80s I’ve kind of giving up on thrift shopping💰 but in the past, I was an extreme Thrifter here It’s good to see the perspective of an outsider. I like buffalo exchange because I could clean up my closet make a few coins or pick out some fabulous goodies from their store. Vacation used to be in the dystopian Tenderloin I find the owners a little weird, but they basically got ran out of that district because of the looters and kleptomaniacs

[@Midnightpigeon666]

I can’t tell you have much I freaked out when you found this Cats and Dogs 2. Catz 2 was my Jam!! I’m so so happy to hear your childhood memories.

[@vanillapod1]

I was obsessed with dogz 5 and you’ve unlocked this core memory for me so thanks! Now I’m about to go down a petz rabbit hole

[@allison3460]

Core memory unlocked oh my goddddd! I spent hours playing the Catz and Dogz games as a child I was obsessed!! That was such a deeply rooted memory I completely forgot about, I feel like I got whiplash just seeing that t-shirt! I'm quite jealous of your amazing find!

[@TheChroniclesOfYarnia]

The Hugabunch Movie changed the course of my life, literally life changing cinema.

[@kaykerns2287]

When I lived there my whole wardrobe was vintage ❤

[@shelliblah830]

Purple! 🎉 I like the skirt. It’s cool you found those epic leather shoes too ❤

[@Elliecharlie]

Thank you for awakening a memory I didn't know i had, Dogz and Catz game was seriously S tier.

[@sandymileski5486]

I loved that you found those leather sandals you’d been wanting.

[@tanyajohnston8262]

I bought a 70’s couch and chair because they gave me nostalgic vibes from when family members owned the same couch and chair. I’ve had a few eye brow raises as it not not everyone’s taste but it also appears cozy to me. Was thrifted and not expensive but comfy.

[@jillianallen4340]

Wow cats 2, you unlocked a precious memory. Ty 🫶

[@ItsNatashaFFS]

I FREAKING LOVED THAT GAME! Oh my god you unlocked a deep childhood memory for me.

[@Angelinewoof]

omg you just unlocked a memory with the dogz and catz games.

[@Rayne_Storms]

Did anyone else play Someone's In The Kitchen? It was one of the best cooking games of all time and you got to taste test your stuff on the dog. My brother and I were obsessed.

[@sandrab5477]

I completely forgot about cats 2 but I was obsessed!!! In 1996, I was 9 and I spent so much time playing with this game. I also played a lot to Pandemonium (a platform PC game) with a Jester and a magician girl. And in 1997, I spent too many time composing music on Rave Ejay.

[@Rookiewompus]

The noise I made when I saw that Dogz and Catz shirt was absolutely unholy oh god

[@evermateo6166]

I wasn’t sure about the long purple shirt- ❤ it how you styled it with the green blouse. Very chic! I ❤ your style.

[@zuziaszadziul8367]

Not a rare game by all means but I remember being absolutely OBSESSED with the Sims as a kid. I would have to place a clock next to me when I started playing because I would completely loose track of time in real life 😅

[@karyne4067]

Omg girl memory unlocked with Petz 😃 I had it too so fun!! Wow! ❤😅

[@Eurazba]

Man I do remember Dogz and Catz, my friend had both on her computer and I remember us playing all the time whenever I'd go over to her house for sleepovers.

[@OKLynnie]

My sister and I played Dogz so often. That was the main purpose of our family computer at one point in time. It's crazy to think back upon those times.

[@jilliancapewell7845]

hearing "pf magic" unlocked something in me

[@kaykerns2287]

I read The Hobbit and it changed my life. Also watched original Star Trek

[@teenygozer]

Y'all are so young. Pre-videogame, I used to play Dark Shadows with my sister and friends when I was that age. We would throw on one of my mom's flannel nightgown with ruffles and lace for a makeshift colonial costume. I always played Angelique. Ask your grandma!

[@kaykerns2287]

I watched the show

[@agentesper5779]

I loved Catz and Dogz five when i was young and im equally jealous i dont have it and so happy that the shirt even exists for those games.

[@christinemichele2318]

Love your finds. Really love the purple silk and the furby!

[@kckazcoll1]

the Catz and Dogz tee shirt was nostalgic for me, because my daughter was crazy about that game as a very young child :)

[@finassm]

4:23 ahhhh is that an authentic Gunne Sax dress?! Those are so hard to find!!

[@madiseeeen]

i go to the out of the closet in orlando alllllll the time, it was so cool seeing the sf location!! so much more clothing!!!

[@sharonwhitley2951]

I just discovered your videos. You are so refreshing! I’m gen x over here 😂. I loved watching Care Bears, heath cliff and muppet babies. I wasn’t much into video games.

[@katealbee3626]

Ok so not only Dogz & Catz, but also the Aladdin and Lion King games from 90s Disney that were essentially just a bunch of sick mini games. And Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego!! Would literally live at my neighbors house because my mom wouldn't let me get it. It gave me creepy nightmares at 7yo but I was also obsessed with it and couldn't stop playing.

[@KathleenIllustrated]

YES! I remember playing a lion king game that had a matching game with REALLY satisfying sound effects (pretty sure you were flipping over stone tablets?) and I lovedddd the Carmen San Diego games! I still remember random facts about the world from those games 😂

[@nikkilee7359]

Kathleeeeeeen at 4:20 you found a GUNNE SAX omg I would have def inquired about the price on that one!

[@oliviamay614]

You've been really helping me find the fun in thrifting again! Thank you! Video idea: Could you talk about your advice and experience in thrifting storage and organizational items? i.e. baskets, jewelry boxes, hangers, easy/common things to repurpose as storage etc.

[@haleykirkseygraham]

Aw I'm so happy you found those shoes!

[@crazygossipgurl101]

OMG at minute 3:52 you were literally two blocks from my work and one block from my donut spot! sooo weirdddd.

[@tesaroberson1151]

Your videos are awesome, the quality is pristine.

[@EpicFailArniek]

Ohh wooOow I totally forgot that game, when you showed the screenplay it all came back, what a time that was

[@noelgeorge8096]

i have memories of playing Flushed Away and Robots on my boxy desktop computer with my 3 brothers in the early 2000s

[@tara1638]

You are adorable! Love the purple skirt and he styling was fab!!❤

[@georgiachivers1957]

Omg I had forgotten about Catz 😳 loved this game!! Also used to be obsessed with Neopets? Would play all Sunday, except for when my mum would yell at me cause she needed to call my Nan on the landline and I was on the dial up internet...

[@M3A0W]

Ömg!! I've read a book about those 16:02, and i still think those are wholesome and the two-headed snake worm is scary 😨 Also in my dreams im living in that purple skirt 😍

[@macieg4052]

I remember playing Catz 5 I loved it so much, I didn’t understand it but I loved putting the cute little outfits on the cats and throwing them in the door flap to swap out which cat you played with 😂

[@phil-ej9ck]

Also I know Oregon trail was huge in America but I never heard anyone else in the UK mention it. I loved it! I also had a horse game that was weirdly formal and difficult, I could never nail the dressage moves

[@KristiGirlLuvsTravel]

I used to live in SF, too! In fact, just a couple blocks from the Salvation Army Family Store. Thanks for reviewing some stores. I only just started thrifting and wanna check out the stores in SF…I’m still nearby.

[@bethknapp4935]

Morgan Donner calls it a Butt Cape! That skirt is gorgeous!!

[@ButtonGirl22]

I didn’t think I knew anything about the Pets computer game, but they you went on the describe it and I realized that was the game I got as a hand-me-down from a family friend that I used to play on our super old PC 😂 thank you for unlocking those memories

[@elizabeth_reads7]

Webkinz and then moshi monsters was my childhood

[@shannarchy]

Zoombinis were my jam!

[@NichHell]

Omg I was like no I've never played that game even though we were both little babies in the 90s and then you showed the game play and it unlocked deep memories inside my head and I HAVE played that game!! I WAS a kitty

[@houserabbiit]

I love out of the closet!

[@kellytimms129]

Love the purple skirt the best!!!
