Just wanted to comment to announce that I'm the proud owner of a terracota raincoat lined with leopard print which is always a fun surprise for people since they don't quite expect a guy to wear leopard print i guess. I inherited it from my mother and it makes rainy days so much happier
Aww
That sounds like an amazing raincoat!
“This is a monstrosity…”
*immediately bookmarks*
This is the best way to Vinted shop 😂
The weird sequin flower dress is such a good example of how you should always try crazy things on. Such a serve but who would have thought?
I agree! It also looks amazing with those silver hoops Leena’s wearing!
"It's a fear response but we're passing it off as a moral decision" oof I felt that about driving 😂
Speaking of your floral sequins number, some of my favourite items in my closet went through the following thought process: "omg that's hideous... (long pause).... I kinda love it"
Sometimes they just throw you off but have the best character
We love the enemies to lovers trope for clothes
I bought myself a secondhand dress with that exact thought the other day. I figure I can wear it when I cosplay as an art teacher at my job as an art teacher haha
There was a hideous pink frou frou dress in a charity shop in 2017. I didnt buy it, couldnt stop thinking about it, and it was gone when i went back. I still think about it now 😂 buy the hideous second items that bring you joy!
"a speakeasy of sequins" is now a phrase I want to use but doubt I will have the occasion to.
I love that patent leather rucksack😍
I love this all black outfit on you! I particularly love the neckline of that top and how it perfectly showcases your tattoos!
But I also love her all-pink-outfit in that video! Same style but just pink. So great!
What kind of neckline is that?
I was gonna comment to say I am *obsessed* with the all-black look and I need those pants in my life but I'm pretty sure they're Lucy & Yak and therefore on the literal opposite side of the world to me T_T
I quit fast fashion for ethical and enviromental reasons in 2018 and the thrifting conversation wasn't happening at all where I lived. I'm so happy to have seen so many people close to me making the switch.
Also it is so fascinating how much more organic it is to find your personal style
I recently went secondhand shopping for the first time with my sister and it's been the best shopping experience I've ever had. We had so much variety in styles to choose from and because of that we ended up feeling a lot more satisfied with the clothes that we bought. It generally gives me a lot of anxiety going shopping, but this time I felt a lot more relaxed and free to take my time looking around, actually enjoy the process and find a piece of clothing I love.
Awesome! I've been op shopping for years and when I go into a normal shop I get more anxious for some reason.
Now I kinda want to make a video response showing my favorite poshmark finds 🤩 Online thrifting is so dangerous for me, excellent finds and often so inexpensive. I love how you highlighted some awesome "basics" you have found, but also super unique finds like the sequin and floral dress. There is a high fashion brand called Rodarte, and I feel like that dress is very Rodarte in the best way!
Oh hi, Bianca! 👋
As for making a video response, omg, please do! 😂
I would love to see this!:)
I would watch the absolute heck out of that
Please make a vid Bianca! You have so many wonderful treasures!
Please do it!!
Today I wore my leopard sports leggings with a bright pink pullover and I thought "that's how Leena must feel."
Thanks for all your videos and thank you for being such an inspiration! I was always a bit too insecure to wear bright, colorful and patterned clothes like you. Now I am braver! I just loove colors and wearing what I feel comfortable in!
My fav thing about buying seconded hand (been so since 2016) is the absolute joy is how happy my wardrobe makes me! I remember where i got it, how much it was, who i was with and the happiness i feot and finding a gem or a steal!
Much better feelings than anything ive ever gotten from fast fashion!
I saw another woman wearing the crazy floral sequin dress walking through Kensington the other day and I gasped like I’d spotted a celebrity.
Why does seeing the exact same sandals I have give me the level of excitement I'd get from seeing a friend on TV but WELCOME TO THE COOL SANDALS CLUB
ahah it's a cult I'm HAPPY to have been sucked in to x
Those sandals were so popular when I was in college early-mid 90's!
I’m in love with those sandals!! Any chance you remember the style name? So I know what to look out for on Vinted
Mood : wishing I had my own channel and i didn't hate being in front of a camera so I could make a similar video, this brought soooo much joy ✨✨✨
I've reached a point in my life where I ACTUALLY SALIVATED at the thought that your cost per wear on that fluffy cardigan is probably less than 1p! I'm like 3 months into using a wardrobe tracker and I thought I'd hate reducing it all to numbers would ruin it, but now I have one more thing to talk about on top of all the emotions and memories and happy details about clothes hahaa. I love that this is such a mix of pieces but all so you
I love hearing (and telling) clothing stories SO MUCH!!! I live in the States but some of my favorite secondhand purchases were made in London, like a giant men's silk and wool slubby sweater I got my first time ever in an Oxfam shop about 23 years ago that I still wear every winter, and a steampunky black linen kilt-y skirt that I made a nice lady take off a mannequin in a charity shop right near the William Morris gallery in Walthamstow last December.
I used to disregard clothes when I went to thriftshops, but my current wardrobe is probably 50% thrift right now (with the other 50% probably being 10 years old on average). Thank you for showing off your finds and making people changed their mind about secondhand clothes!
i love my birkenstocks! i know here in aus, if you're noticing that the bottom rubber of your birks are wearing down you can get them re-soled. its pretty cheap if you get them repaired before the cork gets worn down too. just another option if someone out there loves their birks and doesn't want to throw out a pair they've worn to (almost) death!
Thank you :) sadly I wore through the CORK bit not knowing that but isn’t replaceable, so when I took them to a cobbler they were like ‘sorry, no can do’
@@leenanorms what a shame! im glad the doc martens are treating you well instead
My sister had about 6 stretchy floor length skirts that she didn’t want anymore. So I took the skirts, cut them up, and made 4 cardigans out of them. It was perfect.
“it’s a fear response but we’re passing it off as a moral decision” GIRL. SAME
Love the items! The “crazy” dress too. Maybe if you’d alter it and take away the long sleeve it would be a bit more wearable though?😍 and I definitely agree with the overflow of lower quality, modern stuff in second hand stores. It’s harder finding well made items nowadays, they are always hidden between a bunch of fast fashion items. I think a lot of people who still shop extreme fast fashion excuse their shein hauls or similar with “Oh I’ll just donate it and it’s ok”. No. No it’s not.
I've been seeing so much shein 😢
@@HomemakerDaze Yeeesss! When you kinda touch every dress in a second-hand store, you can immediately tell that this particularly shitty fabric is from shein.
@@gulnazsharifyanova7950 So true yip! And yet my 2 mates try convince me to buy from them 😬 guess I need some more ecofriendly mates in real life haha
The sequin floral abomination is bloody epic .... I love her!!
this was such a delight to watch. It makes me want to go gaze at my own closet with fondness and affection for what's already in there.
the idea of going around to someone's house or having them around to talk about clothes is so incredible. like, that would actually be perfect. Actively will be seeking that out from now on.
I love second hand - was late teens and starting uni in the 70s when second hand became very fashionable anyway. Bought a vintage and VERY worn moleskin jacket, a silk scarf, and sundry other items all second hand. My Nana (unknown to me) had the jacket re-pieced and it was stunning. Would never buy fur any other way than 2nd hand! Nowadays I am too big to easily find clothes in 2nd hand shops, because "we" wear things until they DIE!
"The Monstrosity" is absolute inspiration to not even bother worrying slapping shit together. What's the worst case on a sewing project? Not even this! Just keep going and having fun; who cares 💛👍
You described why thrifting is so much better than fast fashion so perfectly!!
i would love a "how to thrift online" video! it seems so simple but I've never found anything worth purchasing when i look
That green duvet dress is stunning and looks PERFECT on you
Love this! Second hand shopping has helped me really slowly develop the style I want too, plus I love being able to personalize them a bit without feeling like "oh no, it's too expensive!" Because I buy these things to last me for as long as possible, so claiming them as my own is great
I love charity shopping! It’s like treasure hunting! And you can find the best stuff!
Edited to add best recent find a green velvet skater dress with sliver stars and tulle sleeves I found! Only £3 and it makes me feel like a princess!
I don't wear much colour but I also have a button up cardigan in the exact same colour from the exact same brand and it's the best thing ever. Also had it for years now 💖
I love your clothing shows! :) It always inspires me to focus on shopping for items that I really love and feel excited about wearing.
passing off not driving out of fear as a moral choice is so relatable
When the raincoat folded up into itself, I gasped!
I so rarely buy new clothes I forget it's a thing that people still do! I do mostly rely on depop though as it's so tricky to find decent clothes in op shops as so many people shop there now, which is great! However I'm at a point where I pretty much own everything I need to so any clothes from now on are just for fun!
Love the raincoat!
I also brought home a vintage item, a round hard-sided handbag, from a visit to Amsterdam! Still have it after 30 years.
That yellow sweater is so beautiful! And the backback is georgeous, perfect for ALL the books
I am so obsessed with the leopard print mac I must have one immediately
Ooohh. black tank black pants combo with the red lip makes you look like the baddest spy. You’re about to pull up to me on a motorcycle and tell me to “get on, now”.
We get Noisy May here in Canadian department stores...the quality is quite good!
This year I went rouge.. On second hand silk shopping (in person, my lunch breaks got quite expensive 😹). My BF shirts, my shirts and blouses, trousers and now my first "designer" item from the big names. YSL jacket - it fits me and my style and is silk, I left it in the shop and went there after work again to grab it if it stayed (proof for me that I am not starry eyed just because the label). I was always shopping second hand out of necessity, now it is fun and blessing of having for "normal" prices luxurious items (in terms of make and material). I also got few leather pieces I absolutely adore. I needed style shift, most of my old pieces are staying in rotation, but what stopped working is slowly replaced. And my sewing begginings were ofter about cheep fabrics, so often plastic, so I am overturning wardrobe for the wear out and "no longer nice to be in". Love your treasures, nothing of it would work in my wardrobe but that is part of the second hand fun, no two same❣
Every single one of these pieces looks SO GOOD on you. I've loved second hand shopping for year and this has just reminded me how great it is - a lot of my favourite clothes are second hand :)
I love second hand, im much older than you and have been buying second hand most of my life. I Granma used to take me to flea markets and jumble sales when I was a little girl in the 70s, as I grew into my teens most of my clothes were found in her wardrobe and Afflecks Palace in Manchester. As I’ve grown older it’s become so much easier to find gems both online and in charity shops. I’m proud to say even my 13 year old son likes to have a look around second hand shops for bits and pieces from books, to gaming even to fashion items. Moreover, thankfully it’s become trendy and worthy of bragging rights to “find a bargain” Kx
I got a blazer in one of my local charity shops for 1 euro that I need to wear more. I also got this gorgeous Calvin Klein suit second hand and I have worn it at every opportunity because it fits me perfectly and has pockets!
i love how extra your style is, it's v carrie bradshaw! esp the idea of wearing that sequin dress with a jumper on top to run errands.
This was fun, thrifting definitely creates much more fun creative expressive wardrobes. I recently bought a very 1980s shoulder padded navy jumper that has sparkly thread, embroidery and buttons in a sort of faux cardigan style. It was only £5.99 and I'm delighted with it, it has even machine washed perfectly on a cold wool wash. I also got a fancy linen Kaliko jacket for £1, and a beautiful John Lewis wool and cashmere black long belted coat for £12 so the thrift gods have been shining down!
Love it!
I buy almost everything (clothes, household items, furniture, electronics) second hand. It's a lot more work to find specific items, but I actually think it's a good thing, as it gives me extra motivation to consume less and really consider whether I want to buy something.
Those pieces that stick around with you for years that you find second hand give such a huge dopamine rush. Especially if people ask where you got them and then you can gush about thrifting it or how much of a bargain it was. 😅 I have an oversized sweater and a maroon cardigan that I wear every cold season multiple days in a row. They’ve become my wardrobe staples.
Leena, that cut of top looks amazing on you!!!!!
I am really fadcinated by your clothes! And the stories behind them 😊
13:40 looking very fashionista, Devil Wears Prada with that rucksack. Love it.
Secondhand shopping makes you understand the value of items. My mum took me to carboots every weekend at the crack of dawn as soon as I was able to walk and I still do it as an adult, plus charity shops.
My favourite recent find was a black and gold flower skirt from phase8. It has a poof to it that makes me want to twirl 😂.
If I'm not totally mistaking, Noisy May is from Bestseller - a clothing company from Denmark. They have a lot of other brands too, like Only, Vero Moda, Jack & Jones... Though I don't know how known they are outside of Denmark 😁 I think quality/price vice it's a step over H&M?
Not clothing but I went into a charity shop to look for ceramics to put plants in and found a small steampunk looking tin which is exactly the right size for a dozen pringles. Think it was for incense, but 100% fulfills the desire I had for one of those packed lunch pringle holders which were a thing in early 2000s
Oh this was a lot of fun. So much of my wardrobe is secondhand, in fact I just scored a ModCloth 50's dress that fits like a glove the other day and I am so excited to wear it! It's black with rainbow thread all through it with a bit of tulle on the skirt! I absolutely just love the fun things you can or upcycle!
my favourite second hand items are both outerwear actually. one is a bright orange super warm winter coat i got for 15 euros at a flea market like 7? years ago and its been my go to winter coat ever since. It was warm enough for Finnish winters when i lived there and i love having a winter coat that is a bright colour. the other one was an actually quite expensive (for being second hand) leather jacket i got for 80 euros from a vintage shop in Budapest but it is dyed in swirly pastel colours and it has become my signature jacket that people recognize me by, ive worn it constantly since i got it in 2017, and i love it so much that it has repaid the price manifold.
I love shopping second hand for the same reasons you are. It's just so much more fun! An added bonus - I never feel bad about the size I'm buying. Sizing is so confusing and frustrating and in a second hand store it's either it fits or it doesn't fit and I don't have to feel bad for whichever size the item is in. Don't particularly enjoy doing second hand online, but luckily there are sooo many great options to go to in person in Helsinki. If you come here on vacation check out the closest UFF store. They are charity based, super cheap and have tons of great stuff!
I found the cutest jeans at my local Goodwill for a dollar a piece. All green tags were on sale for a dollar that day and so I went straight to the jeans. We also have a local thrift store that raises money for the local food pantry and I found SPENCO flip flops for $5 a piece and so of course I bought four pairs, two pairs for my boys, and one pair for my grandmother.
I have two vintage shops (not thrift stores) that I've decided are worth the extra expense. Both shops are very clear about cleaning/washing *everything* that goes up for sale in their store, including stain removal (one of the shop owners used to do laundry tips on her instagram), and made repairs if there were seam rips or lost buttons. All things I know how to do, but am really good at putting off those tasks forever, so I will be okay paying more than thrift store prices at vintage stores that provide those extra services.
You look particularly amazing in this video Lena, I absolutely love the high neck cami / trouser combo, it looks incredible on you 😮❤️
OMG I completely agree with the oversized burgundy sweater. I have one of my own. I have one that is a normal length and one that is down around the knees and I love them to bits. I found them separately for $5-7 and I just adore them. They're the perfect transition piece in fall and spring when the sun might be out but its still a little nippy. I also definitely believe in a lined trench/raincoat. Because it can get really nippy in the fall or the springtime, and I dont believe in sacrificing body heat for the fit.
Your style is so wildly, absolutely different from mine. Like, we are probably polar opposites. But watching your videos about your wardrobe gives me so much joy!
Ohhhh so excited for this! Just recently found some incredible charity shop finds so this is very up my street
Love the raincoat! I haven’t thrifted in a bit, but I did a clothes swap recently and got a blue and orange striped t shirt that is now a mainstay. (Actually, many of the items from that swap are now in high rotation.) My favorite secondhand garment is a vintage neon paisley on black late 60s maxi hostess dress with a high neck and cutout and I did pay vintage prices for it but I’ve worn it many times and it brings me joy every time I see it.
ooh, that yellow jumper is probably very well made if it doesn't pill! generally, lower-quality and/or shorter-fiber wools/cottons/etc pill a lot more easily, especially if they're more loosely/shoddily spun. as I understand it, it's a problem a lot more of the modern garment industry, as it's cheaper to use lower quality fiber and it's cheaper to pay less attention to how well the thread is spun, and fast fashion brands seem to be always finding new ways to cut corners. so that sounds like a fantastic jumper!
What pieces of utter fabulousness! I love them all and you’ve sent me on a feverish hunt on Vinted for similar. Thanks for the new inspiration on a couple of those makes I hadn’t heard of. I love your clothes and your clothes videos. ❤
Next week is Thrift Shop Day. It's on Thursday, but I have to work. But I'm celebrating by going on Monday with a friend and on Wednesday with my Mum. I don't really need anything, so probably won't be buying much. The latest find for me, is that in my area of the globe, we have a secondhand haberdashery. There is no such thing as buying new fabric anymore.
I found a 100% cotton purple sweater in a vintage shop a few months ago. It was $20-25, which is a little more than I’d pay at a non-curated thrift store, but it is my new favorite sweater. I can’t wait to wear it more when the weather cools down in the fall.
About the higher prices of vintage shops, they have to pay their rent, workers, etc and they have fewer items to generate that income. Also, some places buy their pieces, instead of having them donated, so that’s an added expense
Thanks Leena for the continued emphasis on ethical and conscious consumption. As a person who often struggles with putting healthy boundaries on my purchases, I appreciate having you as the angel on my youtube shoulder reminding me to shop in accordance with my values
one of my favourite ever dresses is something i got from onloan too! it was so sad to see them shut down, they were so good!
My fav of yours is probably the raincoat. (You are massively influencing me to like leopard print) my fav pre-loved item is my pair of black jeans i got from my aunt.
Love your clothing vids Leena!
I'm currently at the point of not having a lot of stuff that fits me in my closet because I'm bigger than I've ever been before and I'm super dreading shopping but genuinely don't have many pieces to wear anymore and it's all making me really anxious, because I feel like I'm not gonna find cute things second hand (or it will a lot of hastle at least) and I don't want to buy fast fashion... So thank you for showing these cool pieces, I've been perusind vinted a bit (somehow closing the app without having found something doesn't feel as bad as having spent half a day in the shops and not having found anything) but seeing your items makes me want to try and go in person this weekend!
10:40 i saw that dress too! so happy to see what it actually is lol
Love the green dress well done!
I loved this video! You have great pieces.
oh i love this!!!
I love that jumper!! It probably is a cotton blend- cotton tends not to pill as much because the fibers will just break of. Synthetics are weak enough to degrade, but tough enough to hold onto damaged fibers, resulting it serious pilling
Love this!! That raincoat is outstanding.
I love bargain hunting in charity shops for everything not just clothes, but re. clothes, the ones in colour themed racks are my favourite for not feeling too overwhelmed with rummaging. Vinted has been great for finding specific items I'm after e.g. green high waisted flared jeans for example, which maybe aren't in 'fashion' right now but I want anyway.
I absolutely love that green linen dress you made. Am absolutely not scouring vinted for a set of linen sheets myself... The only thing I might add is some godets from the waist down for maximal swoosh, but that can still be cut almost zero waste, if I cut long rectangles out and then cut along the diagonal... Hmmmm. Too many sewing plans to keep up with.
Love this video so much! I'm so nosy about other people's wardrobes 😅
Charity/vintage shops overwhelm me but I love that depop and vinted has made secondhand shopping so much more accessible for me. There's something SO satisfying about finding something secondhand that you love.
My best secondhand find has been a pair of stripy orange/yellow/black/white culottes which fit me really well and are a summer staple. It came with a belt which I removed and now I have a matching hair tie.
I absolutely loved watching you and all of the joy you get from your favorite clothes! I also have a £1 charity shop cardigan that has lasted me over 10 years since University! not quite as jazzy as yours it’s a burgundy, baggy men’s one in a material that doesn’t pill at all, has been worn many hundreds of times 😁. i’m also obsessed with your leopard print raincoat, getting on Vinted hunt one of those down ❤
My most prized possession clothing wise is a jumper with a chicken on it I found on eBay. It's handmade and I just love the idea of someone spending time and effort on putting a large chicken on a jumper and now I get to love it. It is my special occasion jumper.
This was such an inspiring video I love it !! I’m doing a closet cleanout and trying not to keep anything that I don’t love the way you love the items in this video
This reminded me of one of my favourite thrift finds, a handmade knit hat with llamas on it 😅 Very much a moment of "it's hideous, I love it!"
Yep, I get really annoyed when I shop in charity shops and the prices on most of the clothing is soo over priced I know it's for charity but come on guys!! Be reasonable! They used to be cheaper but even charity shops have upped the price. 😣🤔 Love Kazzaroo ~x~
( I really enjoyed this video, I love the pinky plum cardigan; thank you for your video.)
I recently got what looks to be a brand new f&f purple trench coat for £8 from a charity shop and I am in love with it! I totally agree with the black/navy coats aren't fun idea, it's bright purple and it will make those autumn/winter mornings brighter!
I just went thrifting yesterday! My biggest success was my most boring one XD I finally found a couple of dress pants that fit and are my preferred style (not high-waisted or skinny-legged or too short for me) but more excitingly I found a bird t-shirt, a hot air balloon blouse, a white and yellow striped button up that I am currently removing pockets from and going to add an extra button to (yay for me actually doing my mending and not putting this off for months!) and a cute pair of embroidered shorts.
I do the same regarding looking through everything at secondhand shops, disregarding sizes and even gender. Sometimes I find the best pieces that way, and it's really important to look in different sizes section with vintage clothing anyway. A vintage size 16 could fit like modern size 12 but it still put in the "size 16" section, so it's a good way to make sure you don't miss out!
I do a fair bit of dressmaking but recently I’ve been preferring different styles and not knowing what to sew, and I’ve fallen in love with Vinted! I love that I can either find really unique styles that I can’t get on the high street easily, or I can search specifically for styles I already know I love, like high waisted trousers and crop tops. Plus I’ve got some gorgeous dresses for pretty cheap prices. It takes a bit of scouring but it scratches the new clothes itch
This Barbie has watched the video on Patreon and once again all 18 minutes and 50 seconds of it here 😌 this is how much I miss my clothes chats with my mates
I loved it! ✨
One of my favorite fabrics of all time, at least for tops, sweaters and such is Viscose, which I think is also called rayon? It's so cosy and soft 😊 the only thing is, that if you have been sweating in it, it will stay wet for a long time 😳
A newer love is Tencel, though it seems sweat markings seem to stay even after washing 😭 Really sad as I love the feel of it!
Linen duvet covers--who knew!!!
Love this
Last week I went second hand shopping with a friend in France. We didn't actually buy anything, but had so much fun just looking around and trying things on. Especialy one of the shops had a lot of hand made items that were absolutely stunning. Just a pity that they weren't our size/style 😅
I just moved from Europe to NYC for an internship, so what I could pack was limited by airline restrictions & my budget is restricted by the fact that I‘m not getting paid. In the past two weeks, I‘ve managed to find a work appropriate blazer, wool-blend skirt and knit dress, as well as two silk scarves for accessorizing - for a total of about $50 in various secondhand and thrift stores.
Love that ”Helena Bonham Carter” so so fun… loved it on! And yes one of my old favourite was something that very much looked like a sofa but ON ME… Fantastic!
