However, a point came up when I started showing my friends the clothes I found. There were some slight stains on the silk dress that I told them that I needed to wash out. As soon as they saw it, they started freaking out and covered their noses and refused to touch anything. I was a bit appalled by their disbelief at thrifted clothes, to be honest it takes a lot of work just to get them to step INTO one.
It took me a small argument to tell them the worth of these amazing clothes I found, and although they still aren't believers, thrifted fashion came into mind as I was searching through some spotlight potentials at wardrobe_remix, and decided to show that you can look great in thrifted and vintage clothing.

Those are fabulous finds! You might point out to your friends that just because a garment is in a retail store doesn't mean it hasn't been on anyone else's body, or even worn. There certainly are people who wear things and then return them to the store. Keep finding your great deals--your friends are just jealous! ;o)
Oh yes, my Mom and I do it as a sort of bonding thing. We both love it and are great at it too. ;-)
