I’m a hardcore thrift shopper. This isn’t news to anyone. I even wrote an entire book on how to thrift shop. And as much as I love secondhand shopping, I also make sure to donate my clothes as well, like I did in a major closet purge a few years ago.But over the past two, maybe three, years I stopped donating all of my clothes there. Sure, I still drop a few bags off every now and then, but all of my clothes? Nope, I’ve stopped doing that.While we’d all like to think we’re doing the eco-friendly and charitable thing by donating our clothes to secondhand stores, it doesn’t always work out that way.

Why I Happily Spend More on My Clothes {& Why You Might Want to As Well}
"I only paid 87 cents for this shirt!"
Yes, I used to happily proclaim this about recent thrift stores scores that I was proud of. Now, I'll just as happily tell you about a $20 thrifted dress.
Over the past few months I've started spending more money on my thrifted clothes and it's been the best thing ever for my style.
