Every thrifter has their go-to uniform + must-haves to survive a long day of hunting for gems 💎✨ Here are my essentials that keep me comfy, prepared, and ready to score the best vintage items!
————————————————————————
1. My Phone 📱
My ultimate thrifting tool! I use it to research pieces I find. From reverse Google image searches to checking eBay for history, value, and authenticity. It’s a game-changer for spotting true vintage gems.
2. Tote Bag(s)👜
Essential for carrying not 1 but 2 extra bags because you never know when you’ll come across the best finds during a day of sourcing clothing!
3. Headphones 🎧
Music or podcasts keep me in the zone while I dig through racks. Thrifting = therapy session, and the playlist that helps you lock in, is an essential!
4. Oversized Sweater🧥
One thing about me, I’ll always get chilly in any thrift store I go into. The importance of wearing a tank underneath + having an oversized sweater to throw on over is key to comfort
5. Matcha 🍵
Because no thrift day is complete without a little caffeine boost. Matcha is my go-to fuel for energy and focus.
6. Comfy Sneakers 👟
Trust me, you’ll thank yourself for choosing this kind of footwear for thrifting. Sneakers are a must when you’re traveling around from one thrift/warehouse to the next.
7. Biker Shorts 🖤
They make trying things on quick and easy while keeping me comfy all day. You never know if a store has a bathroom to try on your thrifted pieces.
