I have regretted….. “special occasion” outfits.

[@ANNAREID29]

@@tdsollogIn my area every year there is a prom wear drive for girls, boys and includes clothing, hair and accessories. I use that time to clean out that category of my life and feel great about it. Any items not used they pass on to the YWCA.

The thing with special occasion outfits is to wear them no matter what.

[@keltieharris5658]

Be intentional with your purchasing….best advice ever!! I also NEVER shop with anyone else. When I do, I seem to get talked into buying things I end up not liking or wearing! When alone, I use the mantra…”IF IT’S NOT A HELL YES, THEN IT’S A HELL NO!”

[@gardenhappy4]

This process has never failed me. Purchase decisions are made quickly in the fitting room. If I am not immediately impressed enough to say, yeeessss, in the first 30secs, it goes back on the hanger. No tugging, tucking, what ifs, or adjusting allowed to make a garment "work".

[@ANNAREID29]

Yes! ❤️❤️❤️

[@ambsat]

@jdkjosephine Totally! That's what I'd always tell the ladies when I worked retail. If you are looking at yourself with that "judging", "sideways" "iffy" glance in the mirror, or "trying" to make it work...OFF! On the other hand...women KNOW when they immediately LOVE the way they look in something and seem joyous looking at themselves, almost giddy, lol...buy those. My mom, the expert shopper with fantastic taste, always said to me "if you have to think that hard about it...." off. Good rules of thumb!

[@Haydee483]

I regret buying some many expensive things when I was younger I’m 45 and they been sitting on my closet. I should invested on my retirement. Especially things with logos.

[@ANNAREID29]

I did the same! And they were fancy, going out things that I could only wear certain occasions 🤣

[@mySydan]

I have two square stacking laundey baskets, one labelled 'larger', the other 'smaller'. I use them for my jeans/pants. If I put something on and it's a bit too tight, it goes into the 'smaller' basket. And if those jeans are too loose, they go in the 'larger' basket. When my weight fluctuates, I just file/dig into the appropriate basket.

[@ANNAREID29]

This is amazing 🙌🙌🙌

[@vsylve01]

Great idea!

[@lynnmyrick4045]

[@JD-hb5fo]

Agree! Must be a practical need or place for the item in my wardrobe, but there is a gut "yes" or "no" that I finally learned to listen to. My Tory Burch loafers were expensive, but I still got them because they just felt "Yes" and I needed loafers for work. And I love them and wear them probably too much ❤ Edit - agree with the thank you to Anna too! Love the videos.

Very wise!

[@edennis8578]

I buy stuff that I yearned for when it was full price. When it goes on sale, I feel like, "Come to Mama, baby!"

[@UESGrl21]

Lol so true. It’s a good feeling. Especially since you know you really want it and will use it because it passed the test of time - it wasn’t just a passing desire.

[@stephanieg2000]

"Gentle reminder that there are only 7 days in a week." This hit me hard, I buy too many clothes and they aren't getting worn enough bc there are only 7 days in a week. I need to cut back on bringing in too many pieces.

[@shogo8995]

The BEST thing is finding out at the register that the thing you are buying is actually on sale.

[@junesammy-robidoux2305]

I declutter some of those "it's such a good deal" clothes two days ago. It's such a relief, no longer having that guilty feeling every time I walk into my closet. I also have all the colors of one type of top. And sure enough I got bored. I think I just need to wait before I buy, give myself a budget per quarter, do an inventory of what I have and document my outfits so I can truly get an idea of my true style.

[@ruthmclean5116]

I got caught up buying a lot of clothing with strong Hawaiian floral prints while vacationing in Hawaii and by the time I got home, I realized that I would just never wear any of those clothes to work or grocery shopping. I couldn’t make them work and so there they sit in my closet waiting for the next tropical vacation lol! 🏖️

[@shannonrolfes5171]

If I see something I like, I ask myself "Why do you like it?" Typically, I like it because I already own something very similar! That usually keeps me from the purchasing. At least I'm consistent!

Hi my name is Jodi and I can’t stop buying chambray button downs. 😂 I heard from an influencer they were coming back in style, they never left for me.

Haha!! I have one and I wear it often (my denim on denim look 🙌🙌) I can’t see needing more than 1 BUT if you wear all of them then I don’t see what the problem is 😄❤️

[@SusanBame]

I made that same rule when I started living on my own after 25 years of marriage: not buying something now just because it's cheap and it fills up an empty space until I can afford what I want. If I wouldn't pay full price for it, right now, in the condition it's in, I'm not buying it. If it's not a "hell YES," it's a "hell no." Result? I am now surrounded only by things I love, that love me back.

[@lindaaphillippi7015]

Prints are so memorable . I feel like people would be thinking- there she is in that dress with the huge purple flowers. Yes- I had one and loved it but donated it not long ago because I NEVER wore it and had it for ages! With solids, I can change the accessories- and it’s all new again!

[@ANNAREID29]

Yes to the on sales rush problem !! Trying to stop buying good deals for the sake of being a good deal

[@horsemama6112]

I thrift most my clothes and i make it a rule to sell, trade or donate before i buy new. Having too many clothes can be just as bad as not enough because you can't see what you have and it is hard to make new outfit combos amongst too much.

Great video! Everything you said is so true. I struggled with my closet for years. I tried to “elevate” my wardrobe. Very recently it dawned on me that my life calls for jeans and t-shirts. That’s what I like to wear. There are some things I do to “elevate” my looks, but I live in a resort town. I don’t NEED lots of clothes to dress up for any event. What was worse, I had SO many things that just hung in my closet with the tags on them! I’m retired. I have to be comfortable. Jeans and t-shirts it is! Thanks for the video! 🍀♥️🌻

[@l.5832]

About 15 years ago, I bought a basic long sleeved T shirt that actually had the exact right sleeve length for me. I ended up buying it in every colour, then when they also came out with 3/4 length sleeve I did the same. I wore them constantly at work and they went with everything. Now, 15 years later, I am semi retired and am STILL wearing these basic tops, layered under various jackets and sweaters. I have gotten more than my money's worth from these garments.

[@shariboyle1166]

I love florals and prints! My opinion though.

[@wpeds2099]

If i try on something instore and say to myself would i wear this out of the store right now and the answer is no. I usually don't buy it.

[@hotjanuary]

This is the drawback to modern clothes. They treat people as static mannequins instead of living breathing organisms that fluctuate (sometimes throughout the day, e.g. food belly). Spandex is the modern solution to getting clothes to fit a range of weights, but as we all know, just because we can fit into that spandex garment doesn’t mean it actually looks good at that stretched out stage. Historical clothes were designed around a woman’s fluctuating body. One example is the 18th century skirt. The ties in the front and back allowed for the skirt to fit (and look good) a very wide range of waist sizes. There is a version of that skirt that has been adapted to look modern, but it’s a pattern, so sewing skills are required. I think it was called the coquette skirt (or something like that).

[@mercedes523]

I steer clear from prints. I feel more streamlined in solids.

I have two sets of clothes. Some for when I’m small and some for when I’m 10pounds heavier. I absolutely love it. When the holidays hit and I’m heavier I love that I have really awesome clothing that still makes me look good. I just rotate them in and out.

[@disneyworlddreamer]

I don't buy things because they are on sale but I also don't buy things that are full price even if I want them because I know they were heavily marked up and in 1 m8nth they will be on sale for what the retail price should have been.

I decluttered my closet today with a friend who is also a subscriber to your channel. Together, we went through every item in my closet, including accessories and shoes, and did an amazing job of ridding myself of those (often) expensive items that I bought because “they were on sale”, because they “were a good deal”, or because “they fit me”. Man, this was not easy but feels so good. My friend was a constant source of reality checks, asking things like “where do you see yourself wearing that?” Or “what else does that go with?” Or “how do you feel in that?” So thanks. Jolene

[@ANNAREID29]

[@doreneerb3794]

Summer lends itself more to prints, especially living in S. Florida. There are more choices, particularly for knits for cooler weather.

[@Adulthoomanfemale]

Something I learned is to only buy clothes I can easily care for and in fabrics that I enjoy. With two small kids and two large dogs, I don’t have time for dry cleaner runs or handwashing. I also know the feel of fabrics like acrylic make me itch and synthetic fabrics make me sweat a ton, so not to buy synthetics that will show sweat easily or in tight cuts. I rarely regret a soft cotton.

[@cheryl3366]

The one you missed, don't go buy a new wardrobe because your life has changed. Becoming a stay at home mom, retiring, major job change. Ease into it.

[@annlatham]

My most worn pieces are thrifted ❤ When I organize my closet to where i can see everything I take out clothes I haven’t worn and pick them up for a year and then revisit. If I don’t get excited about it …it’s time to donate or sell. I don’t want to be an impulse buyer again. That gets me too many clothes and overwhelm. Keeping it simple is key. Tops with extra detail is what I am on the lookout for 👍🏼

[@karyannfontaine8757]

I am slim and petite. When vanity sizing began, if I found anything at all to fit me, I purchased that in every colour. My style is classic and J. Crew occasionally carries my size of 000 Petite. I do like solids with the occasional small print. Vintage shoes have my size 4B and so does a company in the UK. Everything made in the USA is for short people who are fat, Plus sized people, Tall slim people, or average sized people who are a bit heavy. Shoes start at size 6. 7,8, are popular sizes as well as wide widths. I have a friend who is 5'll inches and slim. Hard for her to find pants long enough, shoes in size 10.5 or 11. Fashion, including Luxury fashion, caters to the masses, no exceptions.

[@loralee3232]

I like many of your fashion tips! Sticking to mostly solids and less prints. Not purchasing same item in different colors which I’m guilty of 😆. And not impulse buying because on sale. 😊

[@ambsat]

I was a buyer for a boutique during the cold shoulder trend. We felt it was overdone already the first time we saw it at the trade shows. We bought one style of it, once. Sold none. Sale rack pretty quick. The End. Personally, I felt the same for my own wardrobe...I just felt, however this happened, by the time it was ALL over the place at the "it" trend...it felt already "over", to me. I never bought one. I also never bought one "shacket." Wasn't a fan of the look, but also, just over done and I knew was going to be quick to exit. I'd much prefer a cute, stylish "fall" (since shackets seem to be mostly fall styles) jacket or blazer or even cardigan. I don't need to look like a lumber jack. But yea, I don't buy into any of the immediately overdone trends. Quick in, Saturated market, quick out. Not a sensible way to spend your money...unless you LOVE it...then buy one or two.

[@vsylve01]

I purchase certain items, like Ralph Lauren blazers, on eBay and vintage. Absolutely great quality and exactly the timeless and classic item I have always loved and will always love!

I, too, have an intentional capsule wardrobe, which is comprised of almost-all solids…. It’s been way easier! I have just a handful of well loved printed dresses and skirts left.

[@babycakes1402]

I've reached the point where if I hear myself say 'It'll do in a pinch', it stays at the store. I have bought the 'same style' in different colors, but it's a solid, long-sleeved crew neck & I have it in neutrals, & I wear them all so much either by itself or as a base under other tops/cardigans.

[@marbs8615]

I used to be all able printed tops too! Now I'm more basic, but i don't want to be boring so one way to add prints is through a scarf or shoes... That way you can keep your outfit neutral and still have a fun pop of print😊

[@heidi1000]

When it comes to my weight fluctuating. I buy pants one size larger and just wear a belt when it's too big. Also, this gives you more flexibility during the day - especially if you eat a bigger meal! For jeans, honestly, just buy a new pair when you gain weight. I think jeans are difficult and have to fit you just right, so just have a couple pairs that fit you in whatever stage you're at.

[@DonnaScharff]

Flocculating sizes is a real thing, so glad you addressed this. I just lost 40lbs in the last 6 months and have had to purchase new clothing that actually fits me. I've been guiltily of nearly everyone of these spending faux pas and you are spot on to avoid these traps. I love classic dressing and don't buy into "trend spending" very often. After declutching my closet and eliminating things that I no longer like, my spending habits were a real eye opener for me. I donated all the new (now to big) tanks from last summer which still had tags on them 6 months later. I've always been picky about what I wear, but today I am far more educated and cautious about buying for my body type, keeping a capsule wardrobe, and having just a few fun pieces to choose from on those special days when I'm feeling lighthearted. Thanks for for all you do to always bring us relevant content! Warm wishes from sunny SoCal ~ Dawna

Extremely great contents here, I love Coach purses, when I used to work, I bought quite a few of them, now I kept only a few, I never spent over $250 on a purse, compared to other shoppers, but I agree with you on the spending, also, it's so funny, I just went to Kohls today, to return a top to get a smaller size, i have the same style top in different colors, the reason why I keep doing this, b/c the top is flattering, I just hate my body shape, but that's an issue I have with myself, you do point out things that we can all relate, this is why I love watching your videos!

Multicolor exception is classic layering pieces like tank tops. Different colors can be layered under each other or under jackets, sweaters, dresses; and the different colors create a whole new feeling outfit just from the contrast or harmony of the color. And tanks can be tucked in or loose and belted. I am with you on print mistakes, but I still love to have a few. My test is "Do I wear the print or does the print wear me?". Bold stripes and geometrics can be too distracting on me but fluid watercolor effects can make me look striking. A nice camo or animal print can be, well, camouflaging of my lumps and bumps or my lunch or the wet spot where I tried to wash out a spill or splash. Hasn't everyone chosen a "special" dinner outfit in anticipation of unruly but very delicious spaghetti? On the other hand, I am very surprised at how often I reached for printed pants first in the last year. And I seem to wear all my 3/4 sleeve tops first right now for elbow coverage and keeping my sleeves out of the dish water. When I am home, I seem to be washing something in the sink every 35 minutes, but I still want to look good. A fun video might be reviewing the styles of characters in TV series. Who is your "wannabe.". Mine is Laura Petrie from the Dick Van Dyke series. Second place is Lorelai Gilmore from Gilmore Girls. Prints that "read," as more of an overall texture are safer but sometimes I don't want to be safe. Prints have a way of expressing my mood that just cannot be achieved with solids.

[@bmnsegovia8]

Hi Anna, I’ve recently discovered your channel, and I think you give amazing fashion advice. But I have a question what about clothing and dressing for someone who is not tall or particularly skinny. Have you done a video on that and if you haven’t could you?

[@nechamascher7199]

I terribly regret going for therapy!! There is so much help to get online on KZbin for free, from ppl with actual experience who went through similar traumas or ailments and I have gotten so much from their advice and expertise that some seriously saved my life. Also there are great support groups online or on Facebook, and no life therapist can beat that. Basically I wish I'd not be so pressured to go the 'acceptable, traditional' route or else how would you heal and able to grow... rather the many therapist I saw throughout many years actually added to my trauma and prevented healing and moving on. Just sharing, I know that's not the point of the video, lol, and also not the point of your ad. But as you wiggled this in, i am just sharing my 2 cents on my regrets!

[@nechamascher7199]

@@merrilew 'Crappy childhood fairy', helped me a lot after leaving a toxic marriage. She is amazing in helping you rebuild and move on and understand how this all happened to you. During the relationship, I got extremely educated by Dr Ramani, she opened my eyes to the eventuality that my spouse may be a Narcissist. Her videos gave me the strength to understand my situation, analyze it and make the right decisions for my future. Mostly I am now suffering from PTSD and learning now how to emotionally regulate and griw from my past experiences. I also gained a lot from motivational videos, to get out of funks, anxiety and depression, how to do proper self care and how to become financially independent. Hope that helped.

Right before this video popped up on autoplay, I was going through my closet and regretting some cheap blouses I purchased from Old Navy, Kohl’s, etc. You know the ones made of either rayon or thin cotton, that wrinkle super badly after one wash? I’m usually in a hurry most mornings, and am far too lazy to iron or even steam these shirts. Even putting them in the dryer after spraying, or with Dryel did not make them look new again. Now they’re in the donate bag!

[@lynndupree1205]

Sometimes Old Navy does have some high quality fabrics, like some of their jeans. Also, this year they have a high quality T shirt line called Vintage T Shirt. The fabric is nice thick cotton that doesn't stretch out of shape. I shop carefully at ON because I agree a lot of their clothing is cheap and crappy. But a few prices each season are really great. And when you find one, you gotta love the price!

[@lynndupree1205]

Totally agree Anna! Especially your point about prints. Very rarely have I enjoyed a printed garmet for more than the first couple of wears. Thanks for this sage advice. ❤ Edit: One final point. Never, ever, buy something because the sales associate tells you it looks fabulous on you. Remember, these ladies are PAID to SELL clothing! I have learned the hard way just to trust my own taste. If I'm on the fence, I leave it there, knowing I can always come back or order it online if I decide to buy it later.

Do you have an effective way to lable folded jeans in your closet. I like to fold jeans, but finding the cut and legnth i want that day makes a mess of the pile. Even if i pull my outfit the night before, it's more time consuming than i would like. Another great time saver would be purse inserts that make changing to a different purse faster.

As I am laying in bed this early morning looking at my closet of dark clothing I am beginning to regret buying what's in it. Maybe not all because I have started a "Key Pieces Only" wardrobe.of classic pieces that won't go out of fashion.

[@pamelawing5747]

I disagree about the sale clothes, at least for me. I never buy clothes unless they ARE on sale. Last year I fell in love with a jacket at a big name department store and it was 97.00. There is no way I was going to ;ay that so I passed but I kept looking on their website and two months later it showed up on their website for 27.00. I bought two, a blue denim and a washed charcoal color and I've work those jackets more than any other jackets or coats in my closet. I DO know about buying things you regret and like most of us, over the years have made quite a few mistakes. I made a pact with myself about 6 years ago, if it's not on sale, if it does not fit correctly, if I don't love it, it's NOT coming home with me. I WILL change buttons if needed. I wear only silver jewelry so if I love something with wood or gold buttons, I'll change them.

Thanks! It's old / sold out :( Here is her new version: rvlv.me/wN4pfu ❤️

I buy many pieces that I will only buy if on sale, that I would not pay full price for. Especially pieces that my cost per wear is high, I know I won't wear it a lot, but I love it and it's pretty and soooooo cute...but I can't justify the high full price.

Prints are a hard one for me because sometimes they wow me and I want to buy, but then I have to really think about what I will wear it with and how long will I like it for. Awe, and we all love Mr. Rogers. But yeah, he kind of had a boring wardrobe lol

It's crazy how that 8 to 10lbs on me is the difference in a size! I had been feeling so stuffed in my clothes for a year but now I'm down l8ke 4lbs and they fit better. Another 4lbs and they will fit perfect. 2 more after that and they will l9ok too big.

SOLID video topic! I got on the designer RTW train a couple of years ago and the quality just isn't that impressive! I've been enjoying Express now and it's more my style, quality and fit. Also, when I moved to Oahu, I bought a lot of cheap floral dresses off Amazon that have been donated ALREADY. I look so cringe in most florals! Can you do a video on Cool Girl Chic, I think that's more my style.

I like that style description! ❤️❤️❤️

I fell into not thinking Gucci was the best but that Madewell jeans were the best. I got 2 pairs (thrifted) that looked great. Then proceeded to buy more. 2 ripped within a week and 2 were so dang painfully uncomfortable. I bought them solely for being Madewell and then they were the portal to hell. I’m also mad I paired down my closet then went and filled it up with a specific brand that hurt to wear.

What is link for the top you are wearing in this video? The one you provide is a duplicate of the link for a purse. Thank you.

Been there done that, will not purchase luxury bags, I think I’ve had them all, other than the latest ones 😂

My newt absession is a cashmere sweaters and vests. I found so many very afordable French and Italian designers on Vinted. They are way better than a mainstream cashmere. Now I have collection of. But how to stop? I really do not need so many….

[@ANNAREID29]

Are you wearing all of them and getting use out of them? If so, I wouldn't say there is anything wrong.. it's when it becomes the same item basically in 7 different colors I think you risk getting in a style rut ❤️❤️

[@roniv8338]

@@ANNAREID29 oh thanks! Thay all are very different and i do have them in different styles, colours and thikness. And happy with all of them. So nothing is wrong with me ))) Will make a pic of your comment for my Friend 😂😅 thanks a lot! 🌹 Next is a linen for summer 😂🤣😅

[@tonyak2446]

​@@roniv8338is Vinted like ThredUp?

[@robertazapp1443]

Emotional buying frequently ends up with me regretting the item. I try to stay away from on line when emotionally low.

[@kateyk4340]

Whenever in my life I have been on a diet and after I lost all the weight ...I each time went on a fashion shopping spree...cause I felt great!...but each time I would naturally set into what I think now is my natural weight...but I would waste so much money on clothes that I could not wear anymore. This is another reason why that I like the over sized trend...I can get clothes that are a bit bigger but still look great..even if I go up or down 10 pounds

[@ANNAREID29]

Girl we have allll been there!!! Trust me! ❤️❤️❤️

[@minervarose7664]

The sale thing is so relatable 😂

[@ANNAREID29]

We’ve all been there! ❤️

[@llkoolbean4935]

I have regretted many make up items I impulse bought because they looked good on an influencer 😢

[@clarasreeram4223]

Wear whatever you feel like wearing, why so many rules and restrictions about what we should or shouldn’t be wearing! Just do you and be happy 😊I love floral prints and bright colors so I could care less about what the influencers have to say 😮

[@judimeyers769]

Anna, such great advice! WHERE did you get that green sweater dress you were wearing with boots???? It is GORGEOUS on you and I LOVE it!!!❤️

[@ANNAREID29]
