Thrift-Therapy
My love of thrift shopping started in high school, going hand in hand with my growing passion for fashion and my shrinking bank account. I wasn’t the most extroverted kid in those years, but I like to think most of my personality came through my outfits. The world of fashion was so big, so broad; so many trends and styles and I wanted to try them all, and my part-time job as a dishwasher just wasn’t cutting it. Enter the world of the thrift store: all you need is a little patience, a good podcast to listen to, or your favourite Spotify mix and you’re good to go. Shopping at Value Village quickly became a weekly occurrence, and shortly after the Goodwill and Salvation Army were added to the list. Those stores will always remain close to my heart, being my first real introduction to the thrifting world. My favourite spots, however, became those you had to search a little bit harder for, hidden in the nooks and crannies of almost every city or town. The ones you might come across while walking the dog or recommended by a close friend, the discovery of which became almost as exciting as finding the items themselves.

Value for Money
Buying on a welfare or working class budget means shopping for used things. Coming from a big Philippine born middle class family also meant sibling hand me down clothing mixed with new. All our lives we knew that meant savings, often in clothes and furniture. Immigration to Canada then America, which had even more established second hand stores like Salvation Army, Value Village and Goodwill opened up more opportunities. Donated items resold was also better than throwing into a landfill. We also gave things away when closets and storage were too full, or in house and apartment moves.

The Black Aesthetic
Introducing PUNK FASHION! “The Black Aesthetic” Punk style is extremely UNDERRATED, Many people’s first impressions of punk fashion, or grunge fashion, are less than great. “Trashy” “Skimpy” “Goth”. I think in a lot of ways these judgments are pretty accurate since punk has been stereotyped. HOWEVERRR, you can most definitely dress “punky” without the fishnets and black lipgloss! I believe the true essence of punk and grunge is the dark aesthetic of it all.

Don't be a fashion whore!
Fashion is something that I have a passion for. It defines me as well as gives an appeal that I am that bitch. I fell in love with fashion when I watched Sex and The City and it made me want to learn more about the fashion dos and don’ts. I got my big break when I worked at Saks Fifth. It was like I was in one those movies like The Devil Wears Prada or Confessions of a Shopaholic. When I first worked at Saks Fifth, one of the best pieces of advice that I ever got was: Don’t ever wear more than two high end fashion designers at the same time. I never heard nor understood this. What was the reason? Well, think of cooking: If you put too much seasoning or add too much to a recipe, it can ruin the meal and have so much going on that you can’t enjoy the meal. Having too many designers on you is too much to handle. People wouldn’t know what “your style” is.
