UPDATE: I have opened up my BISTM page! You can see what items are listed here!
As many of you may know, I am constantly thrifting. Not only do I buy things secondhand, but I'm always trading in lesser worn pieces for cash to buy new things! Most of the time, I find that I don't have enough time to sit and wait for an hour plus to have someone go through my things and decide what's worthy of resale.

So, I wanted to propose an idea to you guys.
Would you be interested in shopping my closet? I would include both new and thrifted pieces, and nothing would be well worn, damaged or outdated. I have finally surrendered to the body changes, and know that my wear-size-two-comfortably sized hips may never return.
I have also thought of extending the shop to a mini online thrift boutique, with thrifted higher end items, like Anthro, JCrew and other higher end retailers. I'm always surprised when I run across a $6 Anthropologie skirt in Goodwill, or a $5 pair of new with tags JCrew colored skinnies that may not be my size or something I need, but love anyway and wish I could share with someone!
I'm also a big online shopper who always orders an item in two sizes, and sometimes, it's more of a hassle to return the item via mail. I usually have a friend buy the other piece that I don't end up needing, and I'm always happy to share!
This Francesca's top would be added to the shop! New with tags, size small. Size medium seen here. |
Thrifted this skirt for $6 |
Thrifted maxi dress: $8 |
Totally thrifted outfit found here |
