Bargain hunting since she was a teen who was short on cash and long on a desire to express herself, she knows that staying on trend without breaking the bank—or increasing your carbon footprint—is not only easy, but also thrilling. Second Chances is a unique guide to a one-of-a-kind, circular wardrobe. Eleni’s superpower is sniffing out great finds and here she walks you through the art of in-person discovery at thrift stores and vintage shops, estate sales and flea markets, yard sales and antique stores—and online resale platforms. This book will teach you how to organize your existing wardrobe, evaluate pieces you find, and manifest your dream closet. After more than a decade as a thrifting expert, Macy has compiled every tip and trick in the second-hand shopping world from sizing and repairing to tailoring and cleaning—this book covers it all. Macy also calls on other thrifting experts of diverse backgrounds to share advice about how to navigate a fashion landscape with regard to body type, gender, and ethnicity, so you can easily seek out the clothes that speak to your unique identity. Whether you’re a seasoned thrifter or just getting started, this book will be your go-to guide for looking your best, feeling your best, and giving clothes the second and third lives they deserve!
