Oh I forgot I also bought 3 pairs of earrings. I always wash/clean and sanitize my thrift finds (sometimes more than once) before wearing them.

This is such a great idea. I honestly have never been thrift shopping, I'm scared to and don't know where the items have been.

Diana thats ok too I have stuff from the mall as well I just love thrifting because the items you find are sometimes vintage and its very unlikely for someone else to have the same thing as you. and the prices are amazing of course! :) $30 at the mall wouldve probably only got me an outfit or two unless there was a MAJOR sale.

Honestly my favorite hauls on Youtube are the Grav3yardgirl thrift hauls. It's amazing to me that people are willing to sort through piles of clothing and junk to find maybe 4 perfect items. It's never been for me though, I much prefer knowing that I'm the only one that's worn my clothing haha.

As I am living on a school budget, thrifting is something I do on the regular. luckily, where I am living, there are a lot of very well to do people who drop off stuff that is hardly used or brand new with the label still attached. I have found high end labels and I am very picky about what I choose. my friends think I am rich! I just laugh.. I just don't buy bathing suits, or under garments.. seriously, nothing in my closet is a low end label. GO THRIFTING!! lol.

I believe you but like I said it just isn't for me. I find something about the idea of wearing used clothing to be a bit off putting. I'm not sure why and I'm not saying you shouldn't I'm just saying it's not something I'd do :) but like I said I love to watch the hauls!

Hannah I've seen grav3yardgirl's hauls as well her style is soo interesting and her personality is amazing :) and if you think about it people wear things then return them all the time. or try something on then put it back so technically you never know if you're truly the only person thats worn your "new" item of clothing: ) just my opinion

Shushoni thats great! :) I find great brands and items that still have tags pretty often too glad to see someone does the same.

I love thrifting! It's the best finding some things for amazing prices. I always have a whole day set just for thrifting because it takes a lot of time, but its so worth it. I once got an Urban Outfitters BDG flannel for $2. It's a staple item in my closest now (;

Thanks Shaundi! And yes thrifting is more fun and cheaper! I buy bras only if they have new tags on them. Most clothes nowadays are overpriced anyway lol people buy new 'vintage' clothes 😂
