Love that you wore a unitard underneath! I always wear a similar outfit to thrift. No try on rooms needed EVER. As a lifelong thrifter its been a money saver 🎉❤
@RebeccaHunt-wv8bc6 ай бұрын
Just a thought...you really shouldn't assume something marked a certain size actually fits that way, or even is that size. Sometimes things end up in thrift stores because they were mismarked, or didn't fit someone the way they were supposed to. And 'large' doesn't mean the same thing in every brand. You absolutely have to try things on. I can't tell you how many times I've tried on the supposed wrong size, and it's fine. The reverse is true, as well. I've tried on things that were my normal size, and they were too big or too small. Even shoes, though not as often. And sometimes, even if it is marked correctly, you might like the way it fits even better than the way the designer intended for it to fit.
@alexasunshine836 ай бұрын
100%! But there’s some things I can just tell based on the bust that it won’t fit me like the green top so that’s why I didn’t try it on. Sizing is super all over the place with every brand and oh gosh especially vintage brands!
@Clovergirl79346 ай бұрын
AND….i always check other sizes on the racks. People just don’t know how to care for their clothes properly. They put everything in the dryer and shrink the hell out of them. So even though the tag says large or extra large, it could fit as a small/ medium.

The other day i found the most gorgeous vintage maxi dress that had leopard print and red roses all throughout. It was absolutely beautiful BUT it was 100% polyester. I was so close to taking it home but i hate polyester, especially in Texas summers. So sad, but all this to say that i too am highly aware of materials now and it's so refreshing seeing someone else be conscious of that. I feel it often gets overlooked, especially with fast fashion.
