I have a full time job and live in Manhattan so thrifting isn’t an option for me, which is sad because I think the best-dressed people buy the majority of their clothes from thrift stores. Thankfully there’s Poshmark, a place where you can peruse the closets of Floridian housewives and Las Vegas showgirls from the bathtub. Pro tip: online shopping is a brain massage made better accompanied by bad TV. I recommend pairing low ball offers with the latest season of 90 Day Fiance, or Gossip Girl reruns (the original series, not the new one)—if you’d like to feel especially numb.

A fun game I like to play with myself is if I want to buy clothes, makeup, shoes, hair care, household items etc… I have to look it up on a resale site first where I will usually find it for cheaper and feel good about not contributing to a Bezos-centric society.

Flipping through the feed has become an obscure and unexpected source of entertainment.

Fuck the real real, vestiaire and depop… real ones know poshmark is where it’s at. No one ever knows how good their shit is. I made a crazy lowball offer on a mint condition city bag… immediately accepted. Plus no duties.

Investing in a good shampoo and conditioner is key when you have bleach blonde hair in recovery from blasting it with one of those round brush blow dryers the kids on TikTok like to make fun of. I don’t really believe in sustainable consumer goods but this Davines shit is amazing and it comes in “biodegradable” packaging that you can throw in the garbage instead of pretending to recycle it.

I’m from Vancouver where the only cute thing to do is ride bikes by the ocean. During covid lockdowns, I realized you can kind of do the same thing in NYC. I like to take a Citi Bike along The East River to Battery Park, and then up to one of the west side piers if there's time. This makes for a cute date if you want to pack a picnic, but I’m usually late and lazy so I just end up going to a restaurant in the village after the sun goes down. Last time it was Genes.

It’s spring and the ultra-short skirt/crop top trend is about to pop off. But before you take your kitchen scissors to your wife beaters Julia Fox-style cop a pair of Gingher shears. They’re heavy and sexy and silver and used by people who actually know how to make clothes. I’ve been “customizing” my wardrobe for years but it’s only recently that my raw hem skirts and sweaters aren’t totally jagged and wonky. It’s called maturity, girls.
