Hi Charlie !
Today i'll be talking about How Thrift Shopping Became Cooler Than Designer Brands
Remember when wearing secondhand
clothes was something you'd never
admit to? Like, "Oh, this? It's
vintage." (AKA: my grandma's attic.)
Well, times have changed, and thrift
shopping is now the coolest thing to
do way cooler than dropping hundreds
on a designer bag. But why? It’s not
just about saving money (although,
let’s be real, that’s a major bonus).
It’s about the thrill of the hunt,
the excitement of finding a one of a
kind piece no one else has, and ofcouse
being eco-friendly while looking gorgeous
Celebs have even hopped on the trend.
Zendaya and Billie Eilish have been
spotted rocking thrift store finds,
proving that “reused” is the new
“couture.” Plus, platforms like Depop
, Poshmark and vinted have taken
thrifting to the next level turning
it into a global treasure hunt where
you can score vintage ‘fits without
ever leaving your couch. (Yes, it’s
possible to thrift in your pajamas!)
The best part? Thrift shopping isn’t
just about following trends , it’s
about making them. You’re not buying
into the same old fast fashion
everyone else is. Nope, you’re
setting your own style rules, finding
that weird-but-cool jacket no one
else has, and probably spending less
than you'd drop on a single pair of
designer socks. So, when you see
someone flaunting their thrifted
sweater, remember: they’re not just
stylish they’re part of a movement
that’s cooler, smarter, and a whole
lot more fun than any high-end brand could ever be.
In short: thrift shopping is where
real fashionistas play. And honestly?
The fact that you didn’t have to sell
a kidney to afford it? Just a cherry on top.
so go thrifting.. now !
I think that thrift shopping is one of my favorite activities! There are a lot of cheap store in Marseille where you can find amazing and unique vintage clothes. For exemple the KiloShop is pretty good. I totally agree with your article!
ReplyDeleteYou're so right. I didn't know for Zendaya ! I usually buy secondhand, and I find incredibles clothes.This article made me think of Ron Weasley, I'll let you guess why :) Thank you rose
ReplyDeleteSO REAL!! Thrifting is actually the best thing to have a unique style, and the sheer joy of finding the perfect fit is worth so much more than any designer piece, live laugh love thrifting
ReplyDeleteThank you Rose for your fantastic article ! I personnaly buy most of my clothes on Vinted and I totally agree with you that looking for a special piece is the most exciting part (also maybe with receive the package for me ) !
ReplyDeleteI so agree with this post thrifting is an amazing thing!! Looking for clothing feels like a treasure hunt, and it's so much more satisfactory to thrift and find something amazing than to just immediately find it in fast fashion sites for more money and for terrible human and environmental damage. Amazing post thank you so much for talking about this !!
