My Approach to Intentional Shopping at the Thrift Stores

I talk through my loose guidelines for intentional shopping when I'm thrifting. I kickstart this video mentioning that the best way to have a good thrift experience is to have a strong understanding of your personal style. If you're not there yet, it's okay! It just takes practice, and I can help with the mini-course I created for reflecting on and refining YOUR personal style. Linked below!

Hi Rachel! Thanks so much for this video, it was really inspiring! Eventhough I was already thrifting most of my stuff and clothes, this makes me even more motivated to invest in fun clothes that fit me that are second hand/vintage. I appreciate it that you also point out the part of overconsumption, but I also feel like you appreciate every piece that you buy, and treat it the right way. You only buy what you feel like you would wear or make you really happy and if after a while you don’t wear it, you sell it or give it to another person that will be happy with it; instead of throwing it in the bin. Just wanted to let you know that I think you are being an amazing human being, a lot of people can learn from you, and I hope you keep up the good work ♥️

Love hearing your strategy laid out! It's so easy to fill the cart at the thrift store and feel overwhelmed when the pieces come home.

Hellooo Rachel, this video was so relaxing, I really liked the tip about the tags, never thought about it but it makes perfect sense! I kinda recently reignited my inner fire with upcycling. I work in retail and always had an uniform and also struggled with how huge portion of my closet is taken by black and dark blue clothes that have to follow certain dresscode. So i try to be very intentional about all my other clothes and how I try to make them unique and long lasting.. thank you for your YT content, I originaly found you on IG and you inspired me and shifted completely my thinking about color combos. Love your style 🫶🏻
