About half my closet is from the thrift store, you’ll be surprised at the amazing finds that at are at consignment stores! Yes, its second hand but fashion is one of the highest polluters. I never really thought about it before I stepped my foot into the fashion world. When you think about where do all the clothes go? From the first day you were born, to the elementary school sparkly Justice tops, from your high school grows pert to now. I mean, I don’t know about you by I’m constantly updating my closet and getting rid of old clothes.
Upcycling clothing is one of the best things you can do to save the planet as a fashion lover!
Throughout my years I have learned some tips to find the best, of the best at local thrift stores:
Tip #1- You must be opened minded. Elevate your personal style, you like the shirt but its way to long CROP IT! I love the crop tees; it can honestly transform a top from the 80s to a cute sexy everyday essential. Get creative
Tip #2- Don’t focus on sizing. It’s so easy to tailor a pair of jeans to fit nice and tight around the bum. Wear an oversized sweater a dress! This look is so in, streetstyle is making its appearance, join the trend!
Tip #3– Have patience. They say it’s a virtue and when thrifting it is. Cute clothing isn’t just going to pop out at you, you must look. There are racks beyond racks of clothing, you need to search to find the best!
