THRIFTING TIPS
I have been thrifitng like a manic
lately and I have no intentions of stopping since I got some amazing pieces.
Would you like to see a haul post?
Anyways, I thought I'd share a few
thrifting tips with you guys.
1. Dress comfortably
I advise that you wear a skirt.
In my experience most thrift stores don’t have a changing room. Trying on
clothes in public is a lot easier with a skirt.
2. Patience
Sifting through tons of clothes
requires a lot of patience so brace yourself or you might miss out on finding
gems
3. Budget
It’s easy to just buy things because
they are so cheap but I recommended budgeting to avoiding binging and buying unnecessary
items.
4. Potential
Keep in mind that a lot of items you
find might need to be tailored, don’t skip an item simply because it does not
fit right. See TheChicNatural YouTube channel for
ideas on how to upgrade thrift items.
5. See it Pick it
Since thrift store are stocked with
unique pieces, if you see an items of interest, pick it up and decide later.
You don’t want to be in a situation where you leave something and go back to
find it gone
