I just bought the (100% cotton) cardigans in cream, and black-which honestly was SO hard to spend, because I am also an avid thrifter. However, I’ve been much more mindful on choosing staples in natural fibers, so I figured it’s win in the long run. ❤
I have a degree in fashion from the 1980’s and you are really speaking my language! Please do more of these types of videos! I really love your channel! Thank you for all you do!
I just can’t bring myself to buy Walmart or Target clothing items new. I see lots of video hauls for target and Walmart and I just think I can get better stuff at the thrift store cheaper. I will buy the occasional Walmart or target item at thrift store for super cheap. I found a Philip Lim for target navy trench coat at the thrift store yesterday. It was pretty nice - not lined though. It was too small for me and missing the belt so I didn’t get it. Great video as usual!!!! 😊
Just to let you know I started thrifting with you in the back of my mind. Buy only quality. I found 2 cashmere sweaters this week. So happy!😊 Target too pricey. But I did love those levis you tried on.
I have 2 little A New Day dresses that I thrifted and I do like them. Nice construction with some attention to detail, but nothing else except for their No7 make up line which I like. The 90’s baggy jeans looked good as did the universal thread, but I have a hard time paying $70 for jeans because of my thrifting! I should unload 1/2 my denim and spring for those…
Interesting. For the most part I tend to agree with what was said. However I for one would never buy 100% wool, as it is itchy/uncomfortable. I think the 20% wool is good for someone like myself. As for jeans I do prefer a good 100% cotton, or even better is 98% cotton, with 2% stretchy material. Polyester is a brands why of cheapening production, by lowering quality. It breaks my lil heart to see Levi's stoop to such lows.
Not only quality and longevity of the garment, but my research shows that natural materials are much better for your skin microbiome and you don't really want plastic on skin as can be hormone disrupter because plastic is xenoestrogen that can lead to estrogen dominance. I know, hard to take in. Wish I knew all this years ago.
Does Target still sell Mossimo? I always find natural fiber clothing in the thrift stores. Rarely do I find recycled polyester -- this is a new thing in fashion.
It looks like back in 2017 they dropped Mossimo and Merona. I just started seeing more of recycled polyester also! And at target just about everything was labeled recycled polyester.
Please do this for Walmart as well (Scoop, Free Assembly, Sophia Vergara, etc)!?
Yessss! Definitely on my list now ❤️🙌
This is so educational! Great job. Please more of these videos, Laura!
Wow, Laura, thank you for this video. I never thought of checking the clothing pieces so intensely like you did at regular clothing stores.
So glad it was helpful! ❤️❤️❤️
This would be great as a series. Thanks for sharing!
So helpful!

I go to their clearance rack. I've found some nice sweatshirts, cotton dresses, but on the clearances.
Where are you thrifting? You can get name brand clothes on sale at walmart for the price of the deeply worn stuff found at thrifts.
@ I’m pretty picky about what I get at the thrift store. Has to be in excellent condition. 🙂
@@Chicago48 I have bought gowns and pjs at Walmart 🙂
Can you do Walmart
Walmart would be fascinating!! Definitely putting that on the list ❤️

Great video! Very informational. I always thought the Levi’s at target were the ones they made for target for some reason, they seemed cheap quality.

Yes love this!!
Good research!
This is an educational video!
Eye opening👌
Today at Target I found jeans with 100% cotton in the front and stretch denim in the back… what?? Never heard of such a thing…
Wow! I must have missed those. Interesting!!
