11
items Everyone asks where I get my outfits, so here's a list of the online platforms I use to build my wardrobe from the ground up! I choose sustainability by giving pre-loved vintage items a second chance. Now stop shopping the trends and start sourcing t...
Depop is basically IG but for clothes. Its highly curated, very visual and filled with people who know exactly what 'Heroin Chic' means. While you have to watch out for the 'Depop markup' (some resellers really overcharge for the aesthetic), it’s the...
Depop: The Aesthetic Playground
Vinted is the best place to avoid the 'influencer tax.' Since they don't charge sellers fees, the prices stay low and the finds stay authentic. It’s less about the 'aesthetic' and more about regular people selling real clothes. I use it to snag 90s b...
Vinted: Where It All Started For Me
Mercari is my go to for finding vintage looks without the hiked up curated prices. Since the sellers on here are usually just regular people cleaning out their closets rather than professional vintage resellers, you can find iconic 90s and Y2K pieces...
Mercari: The Low-Key Steal Spot
Poshmark is where I go to find name brand staples for a steal. You can find great quality basics from brands like Levi’s or Dr. Martens that people are just trying to get rid of. I always 'heart' items and wait for the seller to send me a private dis...
Poshmark: The Closet Cleanout Queen
This is where I go when I’m looking for 'investment' pieces. It’s less about the thrift hunt and more about the archive. If you want high end looks with pieces that actually hold their value, this is the vault!
Grailed: Where I Find High End Grails
If you can’t find anything at your local bins anymore, it’s probably because it’s on here. The word is Goodwill pulls the high value vintage, designer labels and cool pieces from the donations to auction them off online instead of putting them on the...
ShopGoodwill: Where the Good Stuff Goes
This is my secret weapon for finding the exact pieces that fit my aesthetic! Everyone forgot about eBay, but this is where the real collectors stay. The best part is that a lot of sellers don't even know what they have; they aren't using trendy keywo...
eBay: The OG Underground Source
ThredUp is like the final boss of online thrifting. The rumor is they pull high end brands and the best vintage from local Goodwill donations to sell them here for a higher profit. Since it’s a massive warehouse, you can find insane staples that wou...
ThredUp: The Warehouse Treasure Hunt
If you want real deal designer staples that actually last, this is the spot! It’s all authenticated, so you know you’re getting the actual archive pieces from the 90s and 2000s. I wait for their sales to snag high end leather or hardware heavy access...
The RealReal: My Secret Designer Source
This is where the real deals happen if you're willing to do a little digital digging! Since it’s mostly local people just cleaning out their closets, you can find insane deals for the low low. The trick is to skip the aesthetic buzzwords and search f...
Facebook Marketplace: The Local Goldmine
Craigslist is for the true hunters! It’s where you find the best pieces from people who aren’t trying to be influencers. Since there’s no algorithm, you have to use search terms like 'old jacket' or 'black boots' to find the gems. It’s definitely mor...
