Too many of my friends I am a free personal stylist/ shopper. I am sort of a shop-a-holic when it comes to shopping for the coolest, unique pieces to create stylish looks. Now notice I said stylish looks not fashionable or trendy looks because those things come and go faster than cars at NASCAR.Do not get me wrong now, spotting trends is great for inspiration but style on the other hand lives forever and easy to discover with the right resources. A huge gold mine store that I go to when working with my friends or myself is the thrift store. Seriously no store does stylish, quality or inexpensive better. However, my friends use me because you can not just jump into thrifting head first because as I said, it's a gold mine, and you will probably try to purchase everything that looks like your size. If you are willing to put in a little work you can also branch out to different sizes to get really personal. Another HUGH thing when thrifting is the fact that your have to be open minded when it comes to creating your style that is when you have the must fun and create the best looks.
If you need more advice I would suggest checking out this blog:

Until my next post Thrift easy and prosper! Sincerely, Miko!
