Shopping Vlog: Vintage shopping in Brooklyn! Hacks & tips on how to shop the resell markets!

[@She_ill_Bx]

The importance of only buying what will be worn and loved is something I’m learning. I’m currently overwhelmed with the task of decluttering years worth of clothes and shoes. I think about the amount of money wasted and kick myself. Self control is a work in process ✅. Great video! ✨

[@br00klynbetty917]

Yesss! Being intentional about everything you get and try to style it at least 5 different ways will help

[@liacoombs3903]

I’m in the same boat. I’ve purchased so many “things” and now I’m trying to declutter and only keep the things I love.

The Poshmark tip is so real. It's one of my favorite sites to shop during the holiday season 🔥.

[@theevanitychronicles]

I'm so bored with the stores and fashion, I find myself doing the pre-loved markets more and more. Can't wait to see more Vlogs❤

[@justcoilsnolye]

Mispronouncing things > saying it the correct way - my friends and I started doing that in college and haven’t turned back since 😂 so I can appreciate someone else doing it too! I recently moved from the northeast to the central south (yes, I made that up) and haven’t found any good thrift stores yet 😩 I think it’s because they can’t dress here (I won’t say where because I know the girls like to tussle) But my favorite piece would definitely have to be teddy coat!

[@br00klynbetty917]

Lolol same! And I never wanna grow up! Life is too short to be so serious

You’re so right about seeing the same pieces up and down the timeline. It was good to see the different pieces you came across and how you plan to style them. Thanks for the retail therapy ❤

When the KZbin algorithm gets it right! 👍🏽New subbie (can't believe I was #459 I think)! I was "lured" by the title, "hooked" at 11:50-13:15 (yass, "pallete refresher"), and "staying on the line" from your content. Soo tired of seeing everyone in the same cookie-cutter outfits. Wish you could be my personal thrift/vintage shopper. Great style inspos (coat(s)=🔥) and love your sense of humor + the HILarious inserts!! Thx for the tips; I already do some of them. Would love to take a day/overnight trip to NY just to thrift. Do visiting folks even tote a little empty suitcase for day purchases?? Anyhooo, feel better soon (& no, you didn't quite sound like Jadakiss 🤣). Hope your holiday blues turn into the colorful plaids that make you happy! Wishing you great success here on YT
