to break my habit and addiction of impulse spending, i started going to the library. walking out with a stack of 15 books gives me that rush of getting something new and treating myself without the buyers remorse. it literally does not matter if you read them or not because it costs $0. just return them in two weeks and treat yourself to a new stack

The other day I had the funniest moment with a coworker friend. She asked if I wanted to go shopping with her over the weekend and I said, "No sorry I don't need any clothes." and she was like "why does that mean you can't go shopping?" It took me so long to explain that if I go I will buy crap I don't need or really want... but it made me realize how far I've come with curbing my spending and shopping intentionally! Was kind of a funny moment but made me very proud of myself.

No one tells us that a huge part of being an adult is finding a vacuum that you love more than most people.

The outfit repeater thing is just obnoxious. Traditionally, Japanese women's magazines do "style it different ways" spread of items to show that that they can fit into a wardrobe and be flexible. I really wish that there was more of that energy in American media, especially from influencers (beyond OMG Kate Middleton wore the same coat twice).

I stopped buying clothes because I realized none of them would fill any sort of emotional whole I had. Loved this one Chelsea!

Do a video about the phenomena of people pretending to be rich. That topic really fascinates me I’d say that it is appropriate to treat yourself to a small item once per month as it does help with morale, BUT ONLY if you don’t have any debts that needs to be paid and the item’s price tag is within your budget

12:10 makes me think of a tweet I saw: “targeted advertising has decided that my recent dehumidifier purchase is only the first in my newfound hobby of dehumidifier collecting” 😄

“Now you’re just you with a Chanel purse” 💀 That cracked me up

I've converted my compulsive need to buy things for a little dopamine rush into buying stocks. I still get that same satisfaction, but now I have the added satisfaction of knowing that I'm saving for the long term and also it's fulfilling to see those investments grow.

Don’t go into debt to impress a stranger. Or to impress anyone really. Including yourself. xx

YES! Get rid of the haul videos!! Esp the “I bought $1000 worth of the lowest rated clothes on [insert terrible brand]”. Over-consuming for a haul is bad enough but the fact that they return most of the stuff and most of the time returned items are destroyed rather than resold drives me up the wall!

I never understood why "outfit repeater" is a stigma that exists. If you only like an item enough to wear once - frankly, you don't really like it. (Sure, exceptions for wedding dresses and the like if you prefer, but I mean for everyday wear and even special occasions.)

This is a good one! I'm so tired of "influencers" peddling this lazy ass content on social media where all they do is buy things or push other people to buy things so they can get views, commissions, sponsorships, etc while doing minimal work and promoting horribly unsustainable habits. People need to wake up!

2:00 Watching Haul Videos 7:26 Obsessing Over Luxury Items 11:17 Impulsive Spending 13:39 Spending Because Your Friends are Spending 15:26 Going into debt to fuel your lifestyle

I have deleted Instagram from my phone because I realized that almost 90% of my purchases in the past 6 years had been made as a result of seeing beautiful people wearing these items. It might sound ridiculous, it IS!! But that’s my case. I didn’t spend a lot, but I was buying items that didn’t help me be a better person (as you say: I was the same person, with just more luxury items in my closet). So I stopped watching and scrolling and I’ve been one month without spending - feels so good! Thanks for another great video ❤️

The unwrap videos for small children are super popular. Kids love watching toys being unpackaged. Sometimes played with, sometimes just unwrapped. It's like consumer training wheels.

It's truly bonkers our attitude towards clothing. The average person in the west had between 5-10 outfits which they made LAST. Clothing was routinely handed down through the generations and made over to match current fashions without wasting precious fabric. Clothing was also proportionally much more expensive to produce and buy; our modern fast fashion is almost entirely down to slave or at least exploitative labor and cheap materials. /rant (this takes up SO much space in my head...)

i love how you talk about the absurdity of micro seasons... we all need to get behind the idea of only 2 real seasons... fall/winter and summer/spring

One thing I like to do to curb my fast fashion spending is to "buy" all the clothing options in Animal Crossing. My ACNH closet is about 1200 items large and all hand-made by a small business run by hedgehog sisters. I can put together the most outlandish OOTDs with no negative financial impact while having a minimal, comfortable wardrobe IRL.

I think "haul" videos definitely impacted Millennials spending from 2010 to now. It definitely did for me. I can not count the number of beauty items I have purchased because of KZfaq beauty gurus.

I'm fascinated at how "luxury" items (handbags, shoes, accessories, clothes) for your average, everyday person has become so normalized. I watch a lot of luxury channels (just because I like fashion) and so many just drop, like, $5,000 on ONE handbag and don't blink an eye! When did that happen??

In 2020, I sold or donated almost ALL of my wardrobe. I finally got a job last month and bought a small wardrobe of quality over quantity (no fast fashion) clothing. Now, I actually have more to wear (everything goes well together). Also, I don't feel any need to purchase a lot of items, in fact, I feel amazing saying no to clothes I know I do not need. What a change!

I broke my shopping habit by picturing the fancy item I wanted to buy crumpled up on the bottom of my bedroom closet because the truth is, once you buy it the thrill wears off quickly and it just becomes another item in your closet. I also started taking pictures of things I wanted to buy so I could think about it and I ended up not buying the item.

This is the reason why I don’t watch makeup channels anymore (unless the content is an anti-haul). I would spend so much money on makeup I CAN’T EVEN WEAR BECAUSE WE’RE IN A PLAGUE

One trick I have learned to avoid impulse buying clothes is to hold the item while perusing others. After a few minutes of "possesion" I come to my senses and put it back. 🙂

Whenever I get an itch to buy, I think about useful things that I need like grocery, pharmacy stuff, punch cards for sports activities, etc. and honestly it gets my itch to spend and I feel way better for controlling myself from buying clothes, which I used to do!

Amazing video, thank you Chelsea . Also, as a 35 yo I feel kind of disconnected from this tiktok and Instagram influencer culture, crazy hauls, etc. and I’m kind of relieved it was not really a thing when I was in my teens and early 20s . Or maybe I just live under a rock, lol. But I do feel bad for today’s teens who are basically born into it.

I feel one major side effect of constantly consuming (esp clothes for me ) is that you appreciate each Item you receive or buy way less as it just feels normal. When I’ve slowed down buying it makes it so when I do bring a new piece in it definitely feels like a more special experience and I take better care of it because it feels far more valuable.

Investing is buying yourself a better future you don't have to work hard again.

If anyone is looking for fashion influencers that promote slow fashion over consumerism, Alyssa Beltempo, Audrey Coyne, Emma Hill, and Lumiere d’Helen are wonderful channels to watch. They all have great tips and Alyssa has a series of copying Pinterest/celebrity outfits using things from her own closet w/o buying more items. They’re wonderful and have all changed the way I look at buying clothes.

I'm reminded of the Australian news anchor who got called out for wearing the same blouse a second time 4 months later. Whereas a male anchor wore the same suit every day for a year and no one noticed. (I think my comment before got deleted because I tried to credit my source, and references to other sites are probably banned, not the content, I don't think this is off topic or offensive! So leaving this uncredited).

Wouldn't be amazing to see the day where wasteful spending is just so passé? This is why I dove in so hard into DIY videos and learned to sew in order to breathe new life into my wardrobe. It's time to get real, yo.

One of these days I was REALLY REALLY sad and didn’t know what to do, so I went to the store and bought all the stuff that I needed to buy (new toothbrush, pasta, headache medicine, etc) but hadn’t bought yet because I just forget to do so. Made me a bit better, distracted me for a while and was 100% useful.

It's been 3 years since I bought any new pieces of clothing, I take mine or my mum's old clothes to the tailor and get them altered to my requirements and taste :) also starting a mutual exchange community locally where we can swap clothes rather than buy :)

I worked with a girl who would track what I wore and tell me when I last wore a certain outfit or top and then ridicule me for wearing the same thing multiple times. Like she literally wrote a description of my outfit on her calendar!

Stopped buying makeup. I realized I hate people and avoid them as much as I can. A hermit doesn't need much lol

Foregoing healthcare for luxury items!?!?!?!? That’s insane. 😱

I'm jaded, but the people saying they would forgo healthcare for luxury items are probably the ones who will NEVER have to make that choice. Also, my take away from this video is have better friends, and stay off social media,😆. Very thankful I can be honest with my friends if I can't afford to do something, and I don't feel a need to live my life for views and likes. Keeping up with the Joneses was never my speed.

getting off social media may solve most of these problems. I've never been into social media so i don't fully understand the desire to maintain a certain lifestyle, dress a certain way, etc. I know i'm vulnerable to it, but being off social media helps me actually not engage.

The FOMO spending is such a real struggle. Thank you for addressing it!

“Delete your card info from your browser so at least have to get up and get your card to buy it” Hahaha joke’s on you I have my card numbers memorized 😭😭😭💀

feel like i’m sort of in the throes of somewhat of a shopping addiction to distract myself from my struggles with depression. this video truly resonated with me.

I think something people (viewers/consumers) also need to understand and remind themselves is that they don’t need to purchase everything they see in these videos + you have the choice to simply not consume this content unless you need to. It’s definitely easier said than done and I know it will take a collective effort to lower the popularity of hauls, but these videos do so well because we give them that power and attention. I never see hauls on my FYP/homepage bc I give them 0 interaction. But I know the power of marketing is actively trying to get our attention, so I get it lol

You hit the nail on the head with this one. I’m in my 40s and enjoy watching style and etiquette videos for mid aged chicas like myself. And EVERYONE has MULTIPLE fracking designer purses, tote bags, handle bags, cross body bags, wallets and WALLS of off-the-wall priced luxury perfumes and shoes. I’ve come to appreciate those quality content creators who teach how to rock a 10 item wardrobe because it’s just crazy in these social media streets.

I occasionally watch book hauls and they don't have all the same negative underpinnings as clothing or makeup hauls but they can cause stress and FOMO. And bookstores are starting to lean into that culture as well. There's a peer pressure in some parts of the reading community to read a crap ton of books every month/year, which leads to people speedreading and not taking time to savor or enjoy reading because they're always thinking about their endless TBR list. I'm not so much afraid of being seen in the same outfit twice as I am afraid that wearing/washing a piece of clothing too often will deteriorate it to the point it's unwearable. Shirts that I've had for only 2 months already have holes all over them.

hauls give me feeling of anxiety, anger and frustration because they are the epiphany of what's wrong with our economy and life style and environment

I notice the normalisation of luxury goods in corners such as stationery, home decor, baby goods. It's pervasive. I switch right off creators who promote any type of haul because the luxury goods are now the inevitable peak of their creation arc. I just want to be allowed to enjoy things without feeling like I should be aspiring towards a $700 planner/bookend/wooden rattle FFS. Consumerism ruins everything.

Great video! :) This helps me to not buy things I don't need: 1. I deleted ALL shopping apps from my phone, so I don't get tempted to "have a look" when I get bored 2. I unfollwed influencers who practice a lifestyle of overconsumption and brands that I like to not get tempted 3. I have a small closet so I divided my wardrobe into spring/summer and autumn/winter to have a better overlook. Every half a year I empty my entire closet and have a look at the garments and divide them into 3 piles (1. what I wore a lot, 2. Damaged or items that are not suitable to wear anymore, 3. Stuff I didn't wear). I will take pictures the garments of pile number one (usually around 25 items) and store the pictures on my phone, so I can look at them right before the next season to see what matches my current wardrobe if I see something that I like. Pile Nr 2 will be fixed and/or transferred to "clothes for paint jobs, gardening, the woods etc" or thrown away if they are too damaged. Pile number 3: I try to ask myself why I didn't wear it (bad weather, changes in size, I didn't like it anymore, no occasion). If there is a reason to keep it for the next season I will, if not I'll give it to friends, donate it or sell it online. This sounds like a lot of work, but it is usually a fun weekend/Sunday :-) 4. To stop me from compulsive buying I will sleep over an item for a couple of days (weeks if possible) and will have a look at my garment pictures and how it will fit in my wardrobe and if it is something that I will actually wear. I figured that in 90% of the cases I don't go back to purchase the item bc the initial spark vanished 5. I stopped buying memories when traveling and reduced it to one item max. 6. Before the season starts I will have a look at what I really need and set a budget. My birthday is in June, so I usually ask for one item as a birthday gift for my summer wardrobe/decorations/cosmetic etc and for Christmas for the winter season. I really like the idea of a capsule wardrobe and so far it works very well for me (in an extended version of around 25 items). I really like mood boards (I work in Marketing) so I like to display the pictures (you see I keep coming back to my pictures haha) of my current garments on a mood board and play with it by adding a new color that I like, shape and cut (usually for bottoms), textures (like wool, leather, cotton, jacquard), a new type of shoe and (this is my favorite) a new belt to spice up and modernize my closet for the next season. I follow a couple of capsule wardrobe influencers to get some inspiration :-) 7. I try to buy high quality and sustainable products and first have a look at second hand platforms (I have 2 brands which I really love, so these are usually my go to options). However I try to purchase 2-3 items that I really like and need, instead of 20 mediocre items. 8. I try to eliminate repetitive and expensive habits, like buying a coffee at the coffee shop before work (I have my coffee at home or put it in a tumbler), eating out every single day bc there was "no time" to prepare my lunch etc. 9. I safe 50% of the money that I don't spend on stuff that I don't need (usually a fixed sum each month at the beginning of the month) and put it in a separate account. I don't have a credit card or debit card for this account and it is reserved to spend it on a down payment for a house, my retirement, my future kids or whatever. The rest of the money I use for activities (memories): with my friends, traveling, maybe a new hobby, books etc. Maybe this is helpful for anyone :-)

One thing I do when I’m feeling the need to buy impulsively is go through all my stuff… I usually end up making little gift bags for friends and finding things I forgot I had & it’s like shopping from home :)

"Now you're y just YOU with a Chanel bag" damn !!!! Right on my ego

Pop-culture-like elements such as single-use outfits found their way into the modern goth subculture. This really bothers me because the subculture itself was a branch from counter-culture in the rejection of just accepting societal standards. Outfits that would have typically be constructed of multiple layers and rotational items you wear until you can't anymore (then find a new way to utilize the items). Are marketed and sold online where depictions on social media give the impression that you need to constantly be buying top-tier items from brands like Killstar. It's such a bummer to see.

I DON'T want them to fix the algorithm so that they know what I've already bought! I know you were making a bit of a joke, but seriously I'm okay with seeing ads for things I've bought because they crowd out potential ads for things I don't need.

Investing in a Dyson is just that, an investment. I love my quality cleaning products and kitchen appliances, because they'll last longer than the cheapo product that was about $20 cheaper in store. I've gotten to a place where I don't make purchases that won't go above and beyond in the purchase price. I even invested in seeds and pots to start growing my own food to save money and eat better

This made me realize I want an OOTD account made by someone with a capsule (or just smaller) wardrobe where they show various ways to mix and match pieces. I need to get better at mixing what I have.

I'm that person most likely to not be able to walk out of Target without spending at least $30. It is insane. LOVED this video, Chelsea!!

Such a good and important video! Also, as a mental health professional, I really appreciated your distinction between clinical depression and the more colloquial use of it.

I literally cackled at “get right with God” 😂😂😂😂 that was so perfect!

I returned a lipstick to Ulta today. I have never returned a beauty item EVER! I'm 50. I tried wearing it twice and it made me look like I was dead. I'm so proud of myself. Baby steps.

I was very proud of myself for turning down an invitation from friends to go to this insanely expensive restaurant, because I knew that I have other important expenses and I had to be responsible. And my friends were nice enough to understand that. But yeah, the one habit that I have found myself falling into more often is agreeing in a particular place to eat where most of the menu is outside my budget.

Depression is a symptom, the underlying cause is loneliness and lack of meaning. I take a picture of anything I'm tempted to buy but don't need; capturing it on my phone is enough to dispel the FOMO. Another rule is to return anything I haven't worn or opened by the last day of end of return period.

The best part of this video is me shopping on The Real Real at the same time while watching...you are speaking the truth but always have been a shopper

I’ve rediscovered thrift stores my mom took us to as kids because I’ve lost 100 lbs and new clothing is a must. I’m in between sizes and I’ve been asking around for clothes from similar sized friends and family to see if ppl want to clean out their closets. I get such a high now when I get a “new” piece of clothing for zero money. I told myself I’m not spending any more money on clothing until I’m done losing weight because I wasted more than I’d like after my 1st 50lbs down and none of that fits anymore.

So many good points and insights. I have recently started watching a lot of home decor/vacation rental decor videos and have a noticed a lot of videos with titles about how to make your home look expensive. Really? Is this really what the goal of decorating your home should be? Thanks for another great video!

$500/month on luxury items? Fascinating! What was defined as luxury? Does it include services like professional hair coloring, out-of-network therapy sessions, gym memberships, house cleaning? Or was this just $500 worth of material luxury goods?

"Now you are just you with a Chanel bag".... wow I felt that. Chelsea dropping hard truths

Yeah, I've stopped just passively watching haul videos. I try to be more intentional about it now and only watch them if I'm thinking of buying from somewhere new, or I'm interested in a specific item, and want to hear some reviews.

You can’t overspend or go into debt to keep up with your friends if you have no friends

No ones gonna mention the “expensive things are worse.” Clip. Good taste

Canceling Amazon Prime has saved me SO much money. Whether it's an impulse buy or a need, when I see there's a shipping fee, 7 times out of 10, I put off purchasing, which often turns into me forgetting about it or losing interest.

I LOVE vacuuming , I am an outfit repeater, I am pro-healthcare for ALL !

Haul videos are really good for deciding what not to buy though

Loved this video. I have to say, that after being very careful about what I expose my self to on the internet, these haul videos, particurlarly the lux ones, only seem desperate and vulgar to me. I would not dream about flashing a brand for the sake of it. What does it say about a person? Are you so insecure that you feel you have to hide behind this logo? I. have good coats I`ve owned for 20 years. Also, thank god for channels like this one, and particurlarly the rants. As I`m norwegian, some of the more lokal money stuff does not relate to me, but so much else is helpful. Also I too am in a relationship with a Dyson vacuum cleaner and it gives my life meaning. Love your content, Chelsea. Would really apreciate stuff on brands that are more ethical. I`m wearing my old panties to shreads because I can not bear the thought of wearing garments with drops of blod on them from exploited hands.

Thank you Chelsea for your "vaccine" against mindless spending! I love your channel. I watch Bernadette Banner who is a fashion historian and makes most of her own clothing. She had a video where she said she really has maybe 4 outfits. She knows how to repair them and made most of them so knows the effort that went into so she won't throw them out for a new season. I wonder if bring back sewing would help?

I just want to say I appreciate your realness and directness. It’s SO incredibly refreshing in a world full of fakes and sugar coaters. THANK YOU and every time you upload, I find myself nodding in agreement with everything said💯🥂

Wow, how timely is this video! We were driving yesterday from one state to another and several times we passed these HUGE shopping centers. I found myself wondering how detrimental these places must be to someone who is a compulsive buyer or has a shopping addiction. They are the modern day casinos for people! I have also found myself deleting the people who's haul videos I used to enjoy. I'm on a new year's resolution (I'm great at keeping them) to adhere to a budget for our family and to increase our financial wealth. I was never someone who enjoyed shopping before, but found myself shopping more and more over time. Thank you for speaking such wisdom and I can't wait to see you hit the 1 million subscribers! Love your channel!! Cheers from California!

I wore the same 3 outfits literally all summer, save exercise clothes on active days. If I wasn't working remote, I NEVER would've done this due to the massive stigma around regular outfit repeating. Kinda messed up if you think about it.

I always think of that Freckle quote! Such a great thing to remember

I love how these videos are like a mix of counselling and financial advice

I’m glad you mentioned grocery hauls as being in a slightly different category. I watch grocery haul videos not for specific products but for general shopping strategies and to learn about stores with good deals to be some to shop as frugally as possible

I find it particularly tone deaf in a time of pandemic with lots of people out of work to do a haul video.

"Get it together America". YES to healthcare for call. Thanks Chelsea!

Hi Chelsea, my name is Giulia and I came across this chanel by accident and am so glad I did. I've seen other videos in which you talk and I subscribed right away because I related soo much! You are objective and sincere and say extremely important things about consumerism and social media, a side which I rarely see people talking about. Anyway, greatings from Brazil!

I love fashion but when I watch haul videos it’s usually to look in my closet and see how I can recreate an outfit vs buying the exact same outfit but I definitely understand the impulse to buy especially right now when things feel hopeless.

Great video and great topic! You should continue to talk about this phenomenon. I personally love certain haul videos where the YTber is open and honest - for ex, “I look terrible in this, it’s going back!” Or it’s a wishlist item that they can finally tick off the list. And I personally prefer to see these items on real people much of my shopping is limited to online options and it’s a gamble that I don’t always want to risk. However, the massive consumption of goods expensive or otherwise is overwhelming and I understand the growing negative reaction to them. My only wish is that we were less harsh on the folks making these videos, as folks are starting to do YT full time in growing numbers and this is their way of earning an income and we start becoming more critical of ourselves and realize that their overconsumption is for entertainment purposes only. Our over consumption has real financial ramifications. In a similar vein, folks can consume higher end goods but it should be done in smaller quantities, that’s kind of the point. I buy an expensive bag, so I can wear it for years and years to come and it gets better with age. Not, let’s own 50 purses and 4 see the light of day. But that’s just my opinion 🤷🏽‍♀️.

The keeping up with friends thing is one I get. I don't feel the need to keep up in most senses, but frequently my friends and I will attend a 1/week free event and then, somehow, every time people will want to go out for dinner after. If I say "it's not in the budget" there's a friend (wonderful person, overly generous, needs to set their own boundaries esp in terms of finance) who will volunteer to cover us, and then "No, I didn't say we could /afford/ it, I said it wasn't in the budget, still love you guys but food at home is already paid for" becomes "oh, we were hoping to spend more time with you :( " and it becomes an unintentional guilt trip. >

I find it mind blowing that what others choose to do, has to affect you. Why does what others do e.g hauls have to stop just because you let it make you feel bad. It's their right and choice to make them, and your choice to watch them. People should not have to tip toe around others even with regards to hauls. If you feel bad about yourself regarding it, it's worth delving deeper into getting healed

My husband and I thrift and garage sale as a hobby. I'm starting a new thing, buying what I want/need for our house, kids, etc, then buying one or more extra items to ideally resell for the price of everything we bought that day or more. So today I spent around $26 at Goodwill on various things including a nice Crockpot. Trying to sell the Crock-Pot for $25 plus shipping to basically break even on the day. Stoked to find a way to make thrift shopping even more economic!

I’ve started rotating my clothes with capsules per season. Getting dressed is so much easier because everything fits and I’ve streamlined colours so I can mix and match easily. Also, I have a much better idea of what I have so I’m not tempted to re-buy items or purchase similar items to what I have. Also unsubscribed from YT creators who do hauls.

Idk how common this is, but I have the opposite of a spending problem. Spending money (especially on myself) is difficult and painful for me. I'd love to see a video on this issue (the psychology behind it, how to enjoy spending your money wisely).

The only „hauls“ I do enjoy are the frugal but healthy grocery ones, combined with meal plans. Lots of tasty budget friendly inspiration 🙂

If your friends are making you uncomfortable because you can keep up with spendings you need new friends.Surround your self with positive ,rational,wise and intelligent people.. you will get far better financially ,emotionally and psychologically

omg dyson is expensive but so worth it! life changing actually, 6 years and still going strong

This channel is a life saver, thank your for all your advice ❤️

I remember about 12 years ago working at Ann Taylor on Valentines Day, and we were closing and this lady comes. She stays in the store up until an hour after we close because we have a policy of not kicking anyone out if they are in the store before we close. Everyone is upset because it’s Valentines Day and we all want to leave and she’s being a pain. She spends about $600; but comes back the following morning and returns EVERYTHING because she claims that we were rude!! Impulse buying at your finest!

Listening to these videos while I'm out shopping definitely helps to curb impulse spending

Consumer culture has made it so easy to buy things that we’re all becoming addicted. The more we buy, the more we need to buy next time to get that same amount of (fleeting) gratification. And those who sell to us do it on purpose, no matter the negative impact on people and the planet. Sometimes I feel so sickened by it all and so anxious about the future that I wish we had some catastrophic event to force us all back into austerity. But then, not even a global pandemic worked :/

The only haul videos I continue to watch are by an Australian KZfaqr named Alex (PrettyPastelPlease). She is always incredibly transparent about whether she spent her own money, sponsorship money, or no money on a haul. She puts up the prices of each item and will comment on whether she actually thinks they're worth the amount they're priced at (watching her roast designer brands for having uncomfortable or shitty clothing while being extremely expensive has gotten me through this global panini). She even did a "vlogmas" style stint in December where she went exclusively to thrift stores to furnish/decorate her house. I really appreciate how realistic and forthright she is, even when she's sponsored by the brand she's doing the haul from.

Used to watch ' a certain' influencer (s) channel. I was somewhat in awe , considering her age; lavish lifestyle. She came off as really happy and over the top enthusiastic..%99 of the time! I'll admit - at times, I compared my 'lifestyle' to hers. That lasted a minute! Now I just have a good laugh, if I happen across some of the more 'unrelatable' of them!!

Everybody should know…as soon as you go outside, you spend money. I’m glad I’m a ‘in person’ shopper, who needs to touch and feel my clothes before I buy them 😁

Chelsea is always on point! Hugs from Brazil!
