Of u rijk bent of brak, is stylish of clueless, tweede hand die essentieel aan een top-notch garderobe winkelt.
Wanneer de manier door detailhandelaars de tendensen en van „dit“ seizoen wordt gedicteerd, kan de het winkelen gebruikte kleding een stylish en untraceable essentie in uw kledij met een paar eenvoudige uiteinden weven.
Beginnen, laat één generalisatie elimineren dat het winkelen de uitstekende middelen u voor school te koel bent, strakke broek, dragen en uw haar voor een uitgebreide tijdspanne… stileren of met opzet uw haar in de ochtend voor de „blik.“ veronachtzamen
Het belangrijkste doel om een tweede handwinkel, een verzendingsopslag, zuinigheidswinkel, vlomarkt of uitstekende vlek te bezoeken is te kunnen vondst one-of-a-kind stijlen en stukken die niet normaal aan consumenten in massakleinhandel beschikbaar zouden zijn.
Voor het novice begin met de trendier duurdere versie, de uitstekende opslag. Hier zult u huidig vinden
fashions at a reduced price, highly coveted designer goods form previous seasons and decades as well as no name fashion forward items.
You will want to look into the 7 jeans you didn’t want to drop the money on, blazers, stylish dress or casual shoes both old school and modern, a 70’s leather jacket that fits you perfect, ridiculous belts, that one stylish hat that you wanted to experiment with, and unique jewelry.
For the more advanced second hand shopper try going into an actual thrift store. This is work, but can lead to the most impressive finds. If you live in a city where thrift shopping is quite the norm, this can be tedious work.
Here you will want to look for casual slacks in corduroy or even a subtle plaid, worn in T-shirts with unique graphics or sayings, and the random treats that you can only find while wandering amongst the unfortunate. For instance, the softest pull over sweater in a bizarre color that would never be mistaken for the mass marketed.
The flea market will fall somewhere between the two of these categories. The con to this venue is no dressing rooms so it is best only to browse for items like belt buckles, hats, jewelry, shoes, jackets and
sunglasses. Keep in mind thought that if the price is right and the item is irresistible go ahead and purchase without trying on, just don’t make a habit of it. Often flea markets have defective or ill fitting clothing that were cast off by the manufacturer. And don’t forget to bargain.
Items you don’t necessarily want to look for while vintage shopping are socks, underwear, suits, dress slacks and dress shirts. Mainly for hygienic or fit purposes.
The last tip for used clothing, particularly on the cheaper side, is to wash or dry clean every item you pick up on your vintage travels. One of the times I forgot to do this I received the sweet gift of lice at an inappropriate age. This is an embarrassing lesson that is not soon forgotten.
