even though I could shop the normal way in theory I prefer to buy everything secondhand. I also hate to buy clothes everyone else is wearing. I have two Goodwills of preference I frequent with regularity; I like to go wild on Poshmark sort low to high with minimal use of keywords and liberal use of custom filters (especially brand); I find some interesting things on eBay from time to time; I like shopping clearance at TheRealReal but they like banned me… sometimes Marshall’s and TJ Maxx have cute stuff. Don’t cancel me but I’m also an Aliexpress diva and I’m in some groups of likeminded ladies about this on the dl. I look for natural fibers, good construction, and, in used garments, a tasteful but not excessive amount of wear

Lol I have been addicted to Aliexpress lately. I feel bad sometimes but not bad enough to stop. Also i keep playing the stupid merge boss game to earn coins. Last sale i was able to get $26 off my order using coins.

whalebutt last time I played the game my phone got so hot but I think it’s because I was playing in browser instead of in the app And I had like 200 tabs open so maybe I will try again…

snills they auto-cancel my orders and from doing some preliminary research I think I’m shadow banned for accidentally making more than one account so I need to reconcile that when I have the time and patience 💔

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.

my top sites for secondhand shopping!!! i am truly obsessed with them, it is like hunting for treasure. i also like browsing depop, etsy, and vestiare, though i only have a handful of items from those in my wardrobe. i hear good things about vinted and medium things about grailed but i havent spent any time w those. i dont really use poshmark but it is massive. also check out the app called gem, it will check all these sites and more to find any keywords that you enter and email you a list of new items matching your query!

Honestly I’m still an eBay girly all the way, it’s actually a problem lol. I find that you can find better priced clothing as well because it’s not like going through some resellers “curated” collection like on other platforms where they charge more just because they call it curated or style things. If you already have an idea of what you’re looking for you can find great deals. I just recently got the cutest 100% cashmere sweaters and they were all max $20 with shipping.

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
