How to thrift like a pro and always find gems! Hello my loves!!! I see this as a beginners guide to thrifting in a way. Thrifting is about learning how to look chic on a budget and how to look stylish on a budget so I went to one of the best thrift shops in New York. Hope you like the odd thrifting tips thrown in and see you on Friday for the next video!!!! Karen xxx

I love thrifting but I have a hard time finding gems in my size. I'm a plus size woman 20/22 . Do you have any tips or suggestions on what to look for. I mostly find dresses, purses or shoes.

Some KZbinrs do collaborations & I think you'd be hysterical together you both have sweet kindness & great sense of humor going for you.

Those store where loaded with great clothing. The sweaters were gorgeous. I am a sucker for natural fibers: wool, cotton, and linen. They wear so great. No worries of those little nasty piling balls of broken synthetic fiber. I agree with you, I completely hate garments that only have design interest on the front and a plain, boring back. It screams cheap and boring to me. You are the second person I heard of finding an authentic luxury designer handbag at a thrift store. Another KZbinr found a designer handbag, it was by Bottega Veneta. It was basically new and she paid only $20 for it.

I don’t find thrifting relaxing, I always wanna go through all the pieces to make sure I don’t miss anything and it takes so long that I feel like I’m overstaying my welcome (which is enhanced by the shop owner awkwardly staring me down) which gives me anxiety 😂 but it’s very much worth it when you find that one piece though!
