Many people these days Like to shop at Wal-mart and also the mall and K-mart and all these chain stores and believe that $20 for a hoodie that barely fits is a great deal. Well, for those that only have $20 to their name, for example I, believe that it's a total waste of money. For me, used clothing is the way to go. Once you wear a brand new shirt or perhaps a set of pants for a day, they're used, are they not?
When I go to the vintage stores within my area, I've found a range of clothing that fits my style: cheap jeans, $3 or less some; cheap shoes, $2 or less some; cheap hoodies (I own over 60 hoodies), $5 or less. I even find hippie clothes! Striped surf bajas that are, completely new, $15-$20, in the thrift store for $2. Batiks which are $15 completely new, in the thrift store for $3. Also, if you want organic looks and earth-friendly products and recycled materials, visit I'm a loyal customer after i have a lot of money to invest, and they've plenty of cute clothes and purses!
After i lived alone, I had to pay all my bills scarpe da calcio magista, buy cat and dog food, food for me, pay off a tab at the service station for all the gas and drinks I charged (my truck had terrible mileage), AND support my thrift store habit. Money doesn't grow on trees (literally, it's made of 25% linen and 75% cotton), and that i can not be blowing everything on a pair of shoes or perhaps a purse.
TIP: For a cheap, cute, lightweight summer dress, buy a tapestry (or ten, for a large variety) on gypsyrose, and wrap it around you and tie it right in front! It may be either a long, flowing dress, or tie it up from your hip for any shorter, more breathable style (my personal favorite)! Tapestries, I've discovered, can also be used as lots of different things, such as a cute beach blanket, a bedspread scarpe nike hypervenom, a wall decoration, a curtain, a suitcase (should you tie it such as the typical 'hobo' would), or an awesome colorful seat cover in your vehicle! '' Sometimes, there are also cheap designer clothes within the thrift store! I discovered a pink and grey Baby Phat shirt once. I purchased it even though it was they canrrrt fit my jugs, but I have small-jugged relatives. It was $3, and I couldn't pass that up, because arent those activities really expensive new?? I also found a red Marlboro hoodie, and that i know you gotta smoke lots of cigarettes to get one of those, and I don't smoke NEAR that nuch (that, and I smoke Raves or Sonomas - I get Marlboro or Natural Spirit when I splurge). That hoodie was $1.50 at the thrift store.
There's even lots of cute purses nike mercurial superfly at the thrift store! They may not be designer (constantly, anyways), but I buy a lot of my purses there. I saw a pink Baby Phat purse with gold chain on the bottom part of the straps, as well as their monogram in gold around the front from the purse. It was $25, and that i wanted it SOOOOOOOO BAD. Then, after i got the cash for this, I went inside to assert my prize, also it vanished. I was PISSED. Not overbearingly pissed, cuz it is simply a handbag, but still.
