  • Finally, a relatable closet clean out! Thank you for sharing your reasoning for keeping/donating pieces, and for acknowledging that your wardrobe isn’t perfect & will change with time! 💗 I love your real-life content, and you’re easily one of my favorite content creators. Sending you love this Monday morning!

    Yay! I love this video! By the time you got to your second round I was in my closet with my phone decluttering my closet with you. It felt like a friend was chatting with me while we went through our closets! I’ve been heavier these past few years than I have ever been except when I was 9 months pregnant. What I realized recently was that my body was doing something instinctively to protect me from a season of chronic stress. It’s like it’s protecting me while my mind and emotions are in survival mode. That shift in my mindset has helped me thank my body instead of berating myself for being so heavy. That said, I pulled all the items that don’t feel good or look nice and now I can enjoy getting dressed every morning and see what I need to fill my wardrobe out. Also, yes a thousand times to dresses and flowy skirts!!!❤
  • I'm with you on the dress front. Whenever I want to feel pulled together, it's a dress and earrings for me. I feel stylish, pretty and kind of powerful.
  • I'm currently pregnant (high risk) going to 1000 different doctors and EVERY penny is going toward that, so don't apologize about strapping in with the budget! I get it! Your style is super cute, and every piece looked lovely. I'm about to go through all my pregnancy capsule, and start thinking about postpartum, too. Congrats on the baby! Praying for all the rich blessings available to you for the family and your little one ❤😊
  • This is what I needed to see today. Trying to clean out my closet and going through life/body changes myself. Love your closet declutters, and they are such an encouragement!
  • @erym4392
    LOVE the detailed explanations … I just love the chat during closet clean outs…felt like hanging with a friend!
  • @hannahcaison
    Margaret, you beautiful human being! thank you for being so real. I really enjoy your decluttering videos and how you show your thought process through the whole thing, and how you even call yourself out when you think you're being ridiculous. Thank you for always lifting my spirits! Sending so much love! ❤
  • This blessed me so much! I’m currently 37 weeks pregnant and just ~*itching*~ to clean out my closet! It’s a mix of maternity and pregnancy and possible postpartum. Thanks for giving me hope that I’ll be doing this in a matter of weeks! 🤗😁👍
  • I love your content always!! I like especially how real you are about the process of decluttering and talking through whether it’s a keep or a go and why. It is so helpful. Thank you! Can’t wait for the next video😀
  • I only watch a few youtubers and love coming back to this channel every week. Thank you for what you create. x
  • Thank you! I loved this video! I loved how you documented your thought process when going through each item and talked about the very real struggle of clothes when your body changes with pregnancy and post partum. I feel like I have 3 wardrobes and I want to get rid of that as much as I can!
  • @kowtherburhan
    Love watching and making declutter videos! You and Madi Gray are my biggest inspiration ❤
  • @angelalumia5759
    Margaret you are such a blessing on youtube! Your videos and persona make me a better person.
  • @bhavyajaitly
    In all honesty, this couldn't have come at a better time! I've been looking to downsize my closet and you've given me the motivation to get a head start. Thank you so much! As always love your videos ❤.
  • For itchy sweaters, Everlane makes thin ribbed tops. I wear the long sleeve crewneck style under itchy sweaters. They don’t add any bulk. This declutter was helpful to watch!
  • @ingrid2134
    Finally another closet declutter! Loved it, and how realistic and relatable it was ❤
  • Your definitely my biggest motivator!! Thank you so much for making these videos!!❤
  • @rmm4123
    Actually just looking at the neutral colors calms me. I actually just read in a book (The Whole and Healthy Family by Jodi Mockabee) that neutral simple clothing is so much more visually calming and less stimulating than colorful patterned clothing. Not that there is anything wrong with that! But looking at your wardrobe gives me that feeling. 🥰
  • @Plantje1999
    Thankyou for sharing! Always interesting to hear why people keep certain items or why not.
  • For the Missouri weather, keep your dresses, get merino wool under layers/base layers! Easy pezu girl. I’m in Ks/Mo so I totally get the cold, but the layers have worked for me!
