The BEST way to learn quality clothing is to go to high end stores and look and feel (with clean hands) the fabric. Grab some fabric and scrunch it in your hand it should be hard to scrunch and try to spring out of your hand. When you find that, look at all the details outside and inside. Then go to a thriftstore and try to find those same qualities...even if you don't buy them. You will also notice that junk brands have horrible fabric along with everything else....stop buying from those fake brands: it is always going to "look" better than it is!! Try to remember that cheating customers is considered smart business in some countries, and some eras. (In the US at the turn of the century, traveling salesmen taught each other ways to cheat customers...it was "buyer beware") not to mention all the slave labor and horrors of fast fashion.

My mom taught me in the 70’s that linen always had a “wrinkle pass” in society… but having said that I have been known to use starch in the 80’-90’s. NOW!!!!! I’ve learned buying thrifted linen is the way to go for its softer worn in look and feel… so comfortable! I have lots of it in my poshmark closet that has been selling well

Hey Laura VonV, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made. I was wondering if I could help you edit your videos and repurpose your long videos into highly engaging shorts? I can also make high CTR thumbnails for your channel

Just remember there’s only so much of watching someone else doing day to day one can watch. So popping it in when it has to do with how it affects your business… bring it on.

I hear ya 😅 I stopped sharing content around my business a while back though. I still share the occasional haul but most of my content is shaped around fashion now. My business is my job and KZbin is my creative outlet ❤️ It’s the healthiest balance I’ve had in years

@@lauravonv I see what you’re saying! I live the fashion part which stems from your business. I like watching you “process” when purchasing/thrifting

Oh that’ll never go away 😅 I swear it’s in the very fabric of my dna 😂 even if I got a different job (a good possibility in the future and a lot why I wanted to separate things) I’d still do the thrifting side. It’s like once you start you can never go back to normal shopping.

I’m originally from Orlando Florida and my husband’s from Vegas. We just moved back to Vegas lol. The last job my husband had in Florida was working for Seminole county and he still gets weather updates so I just wanted to inform you this year Florida will have really bad weather and lots of potential for more hurricanes than previous years. Be safe!
@lauravonv3 күн бұрын
I keep hearing the same thing 😭 Luckily my parents lived in Florida before this move so they know what to expect and have the hurricane preparedness experience already. But I’m taking notes from them because I have no idea what to expect. Thank you for thinking of me and letting me know how bad it might get.🤗❤️

Well We also share the same first name as well . Florida must be beautiful to live there . The only fear I have of ever living around Florida and Gulf coast states are the Hurricanes that are a threat . But I’m in Central Canada close to the American Border however about a 90 minute drive south of me . We have all seasons here including snow and cold by November . I’m kind of a loner also . Never had lots of friends . But that’s ok I’m used to it . I also like Vintage Fragrances ,Purses , Jewelry ,Hats and Footwear . Not a big makeup person everybody says I look fine without . But I wear minimal makeup . You sound very easygoing and down to earth . That’s something else I liked about your video . Looking forward to to hearing more about your clothing discoveries . Love Clothes !! 👍🏻👍🏻😊😊🌺🫶🏻🇨🇦🇨🇦Laura in Canada

OK, 2nd comment...Your style is definitely on a chic track since moving to FL. As a former floridian with floridian parents, I want to know what types of places you are wearing your fits to. I love them, and I know where I would wear them (in NYC) , but where are YOU wearing them? No pressure to divulge too much private life stuff, but I would be lying if I didn't wonder where you are wearing these amazing clothes.

I found two pieces of Laura Ashley in the wild recently! The first was a very small collab dress piece and the 2nd was a vintage 80's jumpsuit with gathered cuffs. Both in LA. I am just manifesting a Joanie collab piece in my size.
