Used clothing or gently used clothing has taught me a few things about people. SO many of my friends balk at the idea of wearing used clothes. I have found that this is a way to keep my wardrobe updated and new without breaking the bank. With such treasure troves as Plato's Closet and many vintage shops here in Columbia it is possible to get a new dress for every outing, wedding, and everyday each day of the week! With these stores I have made it a habit of never buying anything over $10 for a new look.
I have found amazing items such as scarves ( which are always in, spring, summer, fall, or winter), dresses, jeans, sweaters, sweatshirts, and occasionally a t-shirt. I am not much of a t-shirt wearer but many of my readers may be. Why spend $20+ on an item I can spend $5 on? Those little savings add way way up. Plus... I dare you to pick out what clothes I bought full price and what ones I bought on the cheap..... Try me... If you think you can do it I will grant you access to my closet for you to give it your best go. Oh....and I have two closets to the price of half of one of yours :)
