August 15, 2023 5 Fashion Treasures in Secondhand Shops
Secondhand shops are full of fashion treasures. Some of our favorite wardrobe staples were found secondhand!
With so many years of secondhand shopping under our belts, we have a system down for visiting stores. In fact, there are 5 fashion treasures we always check for, because they’re major finds.
1. Premium Denim
Great denim has plenty of life in it, so look for excellent-condition denim that still has years of wear ahead. Check brand labels to get a sense of the quality.
2. Vintage Handbags
Handbags are one of our favorite accessories, and a vintage one makes a look unique. We’re always drawn to vintage designer bags, but even non-designer bags can be high-quality and beautifully structured.
3. Leather Jackets
Leather is another material that can last a lifetime, so instead of buying a new leather piece, opt for used leather. Look for classic styles that will fit your wardrobe for many seasons to come.
4. Boots
Every closet should include boots, so we look for them in any secondhand store. They’re also so easy to take to your local shoe repair shop to get freshened up for fall.
5. Retro Prints
Retro prints are playful and eye-catching. This silk shirt with a postage stamp print is a perfect example!
One final tip when shopping secondhand shops for fashion: consider the latest trends! Trends repeat over time, so shopping secondhand can still bring you styles that are current today. Take a look at our latest selling guide for ideas.
