]]> One of our favorite ways to shop is to thrift and it’s also become one of the trendiest ways to shop. We can’t think of a more exciting way to spend our weekends than thrifting and here’s why you should give it a try.

You Can’t Beat the Prices

It’s always fun to score a good price on items and the deals can’t be beat when you thrift. Sometimes you will get super lucky and find a new item with the original price tags still on it. It’s not uncommon to find Reformation items or Free People.

Don’t forget to go thrifting on holiday weekends because many locations feature 50% off storewide – that’s 50% off already really cheap prices! Also, many stores have a color of the week which is 50% off. The hunt for these items and the thrill when you find them is so exciting.

One of a Kind Finds

We all know that trends always come back in style. That’s why it’s perfect to find trendy items at the thrift store because these items were probably once trendy decades ago. You can find vintage items and it’s not uncommon to see Levi’s- which are selling for almost $100 on Urban Outfitters!

It’s Eco-Friendly!

Purchasing items second-hand helps the environment because you aren’t contributing to fast fashion. Every year the average person is throwing away 70 pounds of textiles to landfills—so why not give old clothes a new life?

]]> Thrifting in Manhattan is quite the experience. You can find designer pieces for low prices, vintage jeans that’ll rock your style and wallet, and unique outfits that will stop your worries about accidentally matching with strangers. Here are the best stores in New York City with good finds and positive vibes.

Monk Vintage

Their best feature is their wide selection of jeans and shorts. You’ll definitely find your favorite brand, for at least half of the price at this fun Brooklyn shop.

Vintage Thrift West

This nonprofit vintage thrift boutique has the cutest, most luxurious finds. They have a great collection of women’s suit jackets, clutches, and coats that remind us of earlier eras. If you’re a fan of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, check this place out!

Beacon’s Closet

AKA Second Hand Heaven, AKA “NYC’s Best Thrift Shop.” Get lost for hours in Beacon’s Closet. Find the best, wackiest, vintage wear that’ll have people telling you what great taste you have.

L Train Vintage

If you don’t like what you find at one L Train Vintage store, visit their five other locations! But I doubt that will happen. Their selection of cool jackets, sports paraphernalia, jeans (tops, bottoms, accessories), jumpsuits, and flannels are just some of the reasons they attract hundreds of thousands of shoppers.

Out Of The Closet – Brooklyn

This thrift store donates 96% of their profits to AIDS/HIV research and offers free HIV tests onsite. If you’re caught up on your health, run through the aisles and find some new pieces. They also have tons of records and books for the cheap.

Enter thrift shopping: a great way to be eco-friendly, fashion-forward, and financially responsible. While you can find amazing, unique, cheap pieces at thrift stores, the task can sometimes be overwhelming. That’s why we’ve got some tips to help you navigate through second-hand stores.

Expect Nothing

Thrift stores are a jumble of sizes, styles, and colors so, if you’re searching for one, very specific item (say, a sheep-skin lined denim jacket circa 1980) chances are you’re not going to find it, and you’re going to miss out on a ton of rad, unexpected pieces because you’ve got tunnel vision.

Take Your Time

As previously stated, thrifting is lowkey a mess so you need to exercise patience by slowly combing through the entire store to see what’s lurking below the surface.

If You Love It, Buy It

Thrift stores only have ONE of everything; so, if you see it, love it, gotta have it, then don’t think just buy because if you leave it, you will likely never find it again.
