The Anti Haul Summer 2024 - 7 things you shouldn't buy this season.

Buy my book OKAY DAYS:

Yes it is summer finally, and like every summer of every year, there are some things that we are just dying to buy, some trends we’re just absolutely craving to get our hands on, and those special summer mood things we think we can’t live without. So let’s do a little anti-haul shall we, 7 things I won’t be buying this season, from fashion and food, to accessories, homeware, and skincare, because i believe they’re either short lived trends, or they’re wrong for me personally so I shouldn’t invest, OR because I already have a good option at home. Let’s remind ourselves to save our money, and the planet, by resisting that crave to buy this summer, are you with me?

I talk about:
- the mushroom trend
- mushrooms in coffee
- huge scrunchies
- comfortable fabrics
- why you should wear linen
- colourful glassware
- arket
- okay days paperback
- spf for summer
- summer skincare
- the best swimwear 2024
- sunglasses for summer

These anti-haul videos are so funny to me because it makes me realize just how out of the loop I am. I didn’t even know any of these were trends, I guess I’m accidentally winning the war on consumption just by being oblivious and stuck in my own little world. Not having social media except for my curated YouTube subscriptions is probably a big factor 😃

I'm soooo going to buy that book.
It looks interesting and I have definitely never read it or have any affiliation to the author.

I love not buying stuff! I feel very rebellious not buying stuff I’m told I should. Especially the ridiculously priced stuff 😮 great video! 💕

I have 2 oversized giant silk scrunchies (I don't need more than 2!). One is a deep red, the other a navy/peach/lavender tie-dye, both lovely! I don't have enough hair to wear them out (unless I'm using them as a bracelet, adds a fun pop of color and texture to a monochrome outfit), but what I love is wearing one of them in my hair in the evening while doing my skincare. It adds a layer of luxury to a mundane routine. Just something inexpensive that makes me feel good! But I do love how they look on people with thicker hair!

I think you could easily make a mega scrunchy from a clothing item destined to be thrown out :)

Scrunchies are actually really easy to sew yourself! Either by hand or with a machine. Just thrift a nice shirt in a fabric you like or upcycle something you have laying around. There are a lot of tutorials on youtube for this. When I make it myself from secondhand materials I don’t feel so bad when the excitement of wearing it wears off☺️

The irony of YouTube putting fast fashion ads before this video 😅 and I haven’t bought fast fashion in 4 years so it shouldn’t be my algorithm

I'm lucky that I inherited intensly colourful glasses from my grandma. They look fun on the table and remind me of her. She barely used them ( if ever) - shelf life only. Now they have their opportunity to shine ⭐️

[hillerycrawford]

I love glassware and dishes. I'm loving all the colors, but I have to be able to create at least three tablescapes with them before I buy. I bought some secondhand recycled green glasses because I could style them. But that's about it.

Watching this video while I drink my mushroom coffee is YIKES! LOL
I love eating mushrooms and started adding mushroom powder to my tea or coffee a couple of months ago. I do find I have a zeroed in focus in the morning into early afternoon, more so than BEFORE I started using it. I have lovely summer clothing already- fresh, pretty and made of linen and cotton! I have a soft, colorful home- it really depends on line and form for color. And I think I need a perfect book for days in the garden...🙂

Scrunchies are easily made by hand using scraps or pieces of clothing you would otherwise give away/discard. No need to buy them...

"...or smells weird" at 7:10, love the spoken laughter :- ).

I used to see you many times at parties in Seoul and randomly saw your videos. What a small world lol

[katytallon]

book arrived today and I can't wait! 

I can justify the scrunchie as it could be a way to elevate an old outfit instead of buying new....also I wear them then or not as they don't damage my hair like other bobbles. x

[brandibomb]

I was gifted a mega-scrunchie and I do love it... grateful for gifts even if they are trendy! Also, I recently fell in love with a mushroom protein powder, which is chocolate flavored and perfect for a healthy chocolate + frozen banana smoothie. Delicious lunch for these hot summer days!

I bought a mega scrunchie from a local craft market and I’ve worn it nearly everyday I love it so much.

Love your warm and cozy channel 🌸🩷 this place makes me feel welcomed and accepted with no judgement. This type of content really makes you think about your choices and ı loved that. Thank you for not feeding the consumerism trend and focus on the important stuff. Lots of love ✨

My “Okay Days” paperback just arrived today so I cannot wait to read it. 🤩 Also I love these antihaul videos so please make more.

What are your favorite sunscreens? My skin is just as pale as yours, but struggling to find the right products!

My mom bought one kislux and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.
