Thrifting helps the planet and makes you more unique. It’s seriously a win-win.
There is so much stigma surrounding second-hand clothing. I remember when I first asked my friends to go thrifting with me, they were a bit reluctant to wear “other people's clothing”.
I buy second-hand clothing because it makes up most of my unique and special pieces in my wardrobe. I found my own style through thrifting, as it requires looking through items I have never seen on anyone else. To be honest, it's refreshing not to shop at the same fast fashion establishments as everyone else.
