I’m really getting serious about my 2020 intention of exclusively buying clothing USED. I’ve tried this season to thrift FIRST when I want to find something for my closet, even if it isn’t as easy as buying new. Case in point, my beloved backpack that I wear everyday is starting to tear at the straps and I could use a refreshed winter coat as my heaviest duty one is at the end of its life. I really had to search hard for these two specific items to find one I liked on Poshmark, but I did find them and they were a fraction of the cost of new items.
Since we are in the process of packing and moving into a new home where my husband and I will no longer each have our own walk-in closets (RIP, I will miss you more than you will ever know, dear closet) – I really can’t go too wild on the clothes buying this winter. I’m trying to add pieces that I can easily wear for work and weekends as well as seeking out quality pieces that will last me a good amount of time. Here are some of my thrift finds from this month.
One other thing, I’ve been thrifting used furniture for our new home like a bandit lately, I’ll do a separate post once we are moved in of furniture and houseware thrift store finds, too!
