thrifting 101

I’m an avid thrifter. I much prefer to go into a thrift store and find what I want than surf online or go to some fast fashion store (that being said, I still dabble in both but actively try to limit my purchases via them). My love of thrifting came from my mum’s love of it and just gradually evolved as I got older as I came into my own in regards to my style. Over the years I’ve gotten better and better at thrifting and found a lot of my key styling items through it. I’ve been frequently asked by friends to go with them thrifting, or teach them how to thrift, so I decided to create a thrifting 101 post on how I take on thrifting.

6 ways to style: turtleneck sweater

When I was younger, being forced to wear a turtleneck sweater was the cause of many eye rolls and groans. I avoided them at all costs in fear of looking “frumpy,” or simply because I felt too constricted in them. Boy has that changed!! If you walk into my closet during the winter it is filled to the brim with turtleneck sweaters of all colors and types. I have a bright red cashmere one, an oversized light blue one with an A-line cut, a simple black one, and any type in between. If I could live entirely in a turtleneck sweater…I would!
