Literally EVERYONE has been asking me to do a thrifting video and a thrifting haul. I tried to ignore it but I couldnt any longer. Here are my thrifting tips so you can thrift like a pro!! I'll do a haul soon on the items I got and how I altered them! Let me know what kinds of videos you want to see on my channel, im always open to ideas!
you guys look very good together i dont know how to explain it but it looks like you found yourself a man that really suits you (feminist, respectful, fun, stylish..) its cool ❤️
You are my favorite, because you’re genuine. I’m glad you’re not trying to be all bubbly and fake. And I love, Joey. He’s so sweet to you and cute. He’s a catch.
I looooooveee Joey, I hope we get to see him more on the channel! I just think he’s so funny and effortlessly cool (y’all both have amazing style, relationship goals for sure)
Joey's jacket was amazing!! It's so much harder to find good pieces here in Australia.. some op shops can be very standard. Cant wait to see more videos, I'm loving the regular uploading!
this is irrelevant to the video but i ordered the “this girl” tee and afterwards the “gloria” hoodie from uncle and I LOVE THEM SOOO MUCH, literally such closet staples and i’ve gotten a ton of compliments on the cool art at the back!!! totally worth the $$ ❤️
Wow this makes me so happy!! Im so happy you love them xo take some photos and post them!! We're always reposting photos and honestly everytime someone tags us we basically cry with happiness aha xo
Hi Allegra! I’m from Miami and while we don’t have that big of a selection of vintage stores, we do have some gems. C. Madeleines is a classic and totally wacky and cool. Another really cool vintage store is Fly Boutique (my favorite). They have everything from clothing to vinyl to home accessories to shoes. A more high end vintage store is called What Comes Around. I believe there is more than one location. That’s all I can think of right now. Love your videos!
I love when Joey is in your vlogs! You guys keep it so real. My fav videos are vlogs for sure as well as capsule wardrobe ideas. I’d love to see/hear more about a day in the life, or just sharing your general thoughts or beliefs. Would also love an apartment tour because I’m sure you have cool vintage finds in their too 😍 Love ya!
Yesssss, loved this video! I have to check out those vintage shops. I always go to value village but they upped their prices so much it’s not even worth it anymore, spending like the same amount for more curated seems like the way to go!
I'm 5 feet tall so finding jeans that fit is always tough, I always end up having to cut the bottoms. Anyway, I'm going to leave Boston on a plane tomorrow to visit my friend in Denver Colorado. I am dragging her to a vintage store called Goldmine Vintage because from what I see on their instagram, their collection really is a goldmine. I'm pumped up! Would love to see how you alter some of these pieces 😍
I remember when I was 10/11 I used to be grossed out bc I was used to clothes being new and once I was 16 I went and I absolutely loved it now I’m 21 and i recently found a Reebok vintage windbreaker and I’m so obsessed with it and I’ve gotten so many compliments from my thrift finds
You’re my favorite UA-camr🤩, I’ve been watching you since your Santorini outfits lookbook and because of that vid I bought the same exact gladiator sandals lol. Also me af whenever I see a dog @ the end of this video😂 loveee youu💕💕
Great tips! Since you’ll be traveling soon (I’m going to Florida at the end of the month too 🙂) could you do a travel essentials video? Or something like that? This is my first time flying and I’m so nervous/excited!
If you're here on March 18, there will be an event called Miami Flea (it happens the third sunday of every month) where there are many vintage vendors ... along with food vendors lol
MIAMI: Goodwill's ( I probably recommend going to the Goodwills in the more expensive area's: Brickell, Aventura, Etc.) FlyBoutique is another super SUPER super great one, and right across the street is Moshi Moshi (good sushi) . Wynwood area forsure (might be more pricey.) C-Madelines (Ive never gone, just found about it.) Hollywood area.
I liked the tip about shopping on weekdays - I always find if I go vintage shopping on a Sunday for example everything is picked over! Do you also have a price range tip for vintage denim like you did for vintage tees?
Under $50 is usually what I would pay. I'll pay more around 40-50 if im at a really curated store, but somewhere thats a really classic vintage 10-25 is normal. This is all in canadian dollars, so im not sure if it would be different in the states!
love this video! I'm a sucker for the black market because I didn't really know about any other places so I'll definitely be taking a trip to the places you listed :)
Io sono di Modena, qua c’è un negozietto vintage gestito da una ragazza dove vendono levis molto belli a 25€, per il resto però non si trovano tante cose.. hanno più jeans che altro
I don’t mean this in a rude way but it was a little bit hard to hear you and understand you in this video but other thank that this was fun to watch and I’m excited for the haul!(:
I absolutely love thrift shopping! In Cape Town, there are tons of pop up second-hand stores that I literally come home with black bags full of clothes... it's cray. Side note: Does Uncle ship to SA?
Okay, I am definitely gonna check it out! Oh my gosh, yes! Cape Town is like a little hub for that kind of thing - plus, it's just beautiful. You have to come! (Although, you'd have to give up showering cause of the drought... )
CASSANDRA ANNE GRIMBLY I live in Pretoria and i'm struggling so much to find thrift shops. Guess I'll have to make a plan to come too Cape town some time. I wish SA had the amazing thrift/ vintage stores other countries have. Or like Goodwill. I'm living vicariously through UA-camrs going thrift shopping. :)
Is it possible to like a video more than once? Great tips! Definitely inspires me to do more thrift shopping. PS: What mascara are you wearing? #eyelashenvy
Soo funny.. I noticed that green and yellow jacket you picked up is from an elementary school in my hometown of Kapuskasing! 😄 I just started watching your videos about a week ago, I am from Toronto too! Love your content! :)
It is! Also clothes stores and online shopping is pretty expensive here, is common to travel to the states to buy everything cause is cheaper, that applies also to everything related to beauty, like makeup, skincare and fx products.
DearMary V Ah, that's a bummer! I'm sure the conversion rate is annoying too even when you physically go to the states. I heard of services that will let you request an item that you want from another country and someone who is already traveling to your location buys it and brings it with them. I'm not sure if it works out to be cheaper though 🤔

Letitia Wandler fr, I live near Kansas City and the only good stores are in Lawrence and you can only find stuff there sometimes.
I looooooveee Joey, I hope we get to see him more on the channel! I just think he’s so funny and effortlessly cool (y’all both have amazing style, relationship goals for sure)
Loved this video! I love how you and Joey compliment each other. You guys are great together. And loving you in your pink puffer, what a cutie
Joey's jacket was amazing!! It's so much harder to find good pieces here in Australia.. some op shops can be very standard. Cant wait to see more videos, I'm loving the regular uploading!

In Italy there are so little vintage stores..home they ‘ll open more in the years to come!
Yeah tip number one should be "don't live in Italy cause there are like 10 thrift shops in the whole country" lol
+Giuliana Barbagallo Come ti invidio! il negozio vintage più vicino a casa mia è a mezz'ora di macchina ed è minuscolo
Io sono di Modena, qua c’è un negozietto vintage gestito da una ragazza dove vendono levis molto belli a 25€, per il resto però non si trovano tante cose.. hanno più jeans che altro
Giuliana Barbagallo si be bisogna anche avere fortuna
I don’t mean this in a rude way but it was a little bit hard to hear you and understand you in this video but other thank that this was fun to watch and I’m excited for the haul!(:
Agreed! Gotta get a little mic for this lil Camera!

YOU'RE GOALS!!! LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!
I absolutely love thrift shopping! In Cape Town, there are tons of pop up second-hand stores that I literally come home with black bags full of clothes... it's cray.
Side note: Does Uncle ship to SA?
yasss we ship worldwide!! we'd never want to leave anyone out :) Whenever I get the chance to come to SA im hitting you up for suggestions!
Okay, I am definitely gonna check it out! Oh my gosh, yes! Cape Town is like a little hub for that kind of thing - plus, it's just beautiful. You have to come! (Although, you'd have to give up showering cause of the drought... )

I’m wearing roller lash from benefit!
My brain literally shuts down when I see a cute dog too lol
"Ohhhh look at that dog" hahahah me

Actually found some other nice vintage stores on queen!! Common sort and f as in frank, they're pretty cool
F as in frank is a little overpriced in my option but they usually have so cool stuff if you’re down to pay! Common story is cool as well!
Soo funny.. I noticed that green and yellow jacket you picked up is from an elementary school in my hometown of Kapuskasing! 😄 I just started watching your videos about a week ago, I am from Toronto too! Love your content! :)
no way! what a coincidence!
Literally you and Joey are so cute. Hope I spelled his name right
YASSSS 💋 love thrifting❤️❤️
i'm horrible at thrifting so this is really helpful
Loving the intro and the vibe of the video!! XoXo
The thrift shop song better be in this video lol “I got 5 dollars in my pocket”
ughh i really fucked up by not putting that song in
Loved this!!
I live in south america, so... basically we don't have thrift shops... it's really frustrating.
damn! that sucks :( Where do you live?
Yup :( I'm from Venezuela, but currently living in Costa Rica.
DearMary V wow! I'm kind of surprised about that. Is it just more common to do hand-me-downs?
It is! Also clothes stores and online shopping is pretty expensive here, is common to travel to the states to buy everything cause is cheaper, that applies also to everything related to beauty, like makeup, skincare and fx products.
