Why do you thrift shop?
I opt for thrifting because I feel like it's the best way to express my creative imagination. I was tired of being seen in similar pieces that other people had from popular stores at the mall. I aim to one day have an entire wardrobe of thrifted items. That way, I can almost guarantee no one will look like me stylewise. It was through thrifting that I started developing my style.
What inspired you to start thrifting?
80s and 90s sitcoms, like A Different World and The Cosby Show. I look at all of the fashion from that era for inspiration while adding my own spin on it.
