      KarenBritChick hi Karen. That skirt you bought is a convertible halter dress. I have the same one. Got it many years ago. Its a dress too. Thats why the elastic band is so wide.

      For me it s not good. She needs a regular job buy buy buy clothes and be obsesses wth clothes is not some health. It just a escape to cover frustrations

    That blue dress is everything. I don't wear earring often but when I do, I always mismatch them!!! THRIFTING IS MY FAVORITE THING TO DO IN LIFE!!!! In fact, I don't buy new items often- just enough to make the thrifted items appear more expensive! LOL!! I love the fact that vintage or thrift shopping allows you to get unique pieces and stand out for a price that my wallet adores!!!

    @ritagoedecke6574 6 років тому +1

    Karen, you are amazing as always! Daring to use the things you have in your closet in a different way is the key! I get new ideas all the time from the way you show us how you do it. I do have a good sense of fashion, but can always use a new approach and make it a bit more edgy at some point. Thank you, also your sense of humor is fabulous.❤️

  • @Parianparlay
    @Parianparlay 6 років тому +1

    You have SUCH GREAT ideas Karen love! Ooooh! Loved the top and that dress!!! Ah and it was lovely your husband popping in in the background, made me really feel like I was there visiting, sitting there with you talking. Have a great weekend!

    I love thrifting. When I was young we were very poor and it was sometimes the only way to buy clothes. Once i found a Christian Dior cardigan at a goodwill for less than $5.

  • @charrualrodri3
    @charrualrodri3 6 років тому +7

    It has been very helpful to see the process and considering before thrift shopping. I usually go for colours and size. I am going to imitate your way : looking for fabric, pattern, texture and purpose so the pieces blend in with what you've already owned or even upgrade your outfits. I' ve seen your previous video. You did well leaving behind your 5-9 prison for your freeing passionate new job. Karen you are my hero/heroine!!!

  • @quichajones5660
    @quichajones5660 6 років тому +11

    The dress and daisy top were my favorite! I visit the thrift store a few times a month these days. Just about my whole spring wardrobe came from there. Earlier this week I found a white double breasted pant suit, a gorgeous purple dress that reminds me of your navy dress in the video, a fabulous black patent leather purse and a pair of clear vinyl lucite heeled slingbacks. I call them my Cinderella shoes. LOL My vintage and thrift shopping is largely inspired by you. A couple of years ago, I never would have thought to shop in a thrift store. Thank you for the constant inspiration. :)

    Bad Jet! I’ve had such a bizarre week, I totally forgot your Friday video! Geez tornadoes, averaging 2-3 hours sleep, crazeee things this week! Anywho, I shop like that in general, especially in thrift stores. Go by feel of the fabric & sight-the print or colour. You found some goodies, love the dress! Reminds me of a Vivienne Westwood dress I have. Michael getting in on the action again? He’s getting used to being seen in your videos! Have a lovely weekend even though it’s supposed to be dreary (I like dreary, the sun it burns!😆) Jet 🧡🎸🎶⚡️🦇

    Thrifting is sooooooo much fun! It's a lot more rewarding when you find a steel, a one of a kind, that very thing you were looking for and you didn't even know it, then regular shopping isn't it!!!! Love the shades!! Enjoy your weekend! Hubby and the cameos, loved that you kept him in!! 👋🕶

  • @Bonnieerina
    @Bonnieerina 5 років тому

    Hi Karen! You inspired me to try out my local thrift shop! All I’ve ever used it for before was buying books or getting rid of old clothes. I just didn’t think I could find clothes for me there because the place is so busy. But I am so happy I did. I looked for clothes for fall because all of my old cold weather items needed to be replaced. For $54 I ended up with a fabulous plaid pea coat, a 100% cashmere scarf, two other scarves, a wool turtleneck, a pair of Rag and Bones jeans, and two cardigans. I only had an hour to look around and try things on, so I’ll definitely do it again when I have more time. Thank you for inspiring me!

  • @seasoneddiva160

    @InvictumLupus 2 роки тому

    Thank you for your videos. I hate shopping but when I go I get overwhelmed. Probably because I’m close minded when it comes to picking clothes that work for me. I recently went somewhere and thought about mixing prints thanks to you. I went with 2 monochromatic, oversized dresses and am wearing them with sneakers like I see the New Yorkers wearing. I like that they flow when I walk. Your channel is helping me get out of the box I’ve been in for years. Baby steps.

  • @kathrynarnold4201
    @kathrynarnold4201 6 років тому +1

    This video is so appealing! Guess what ? After seeing it, I found a midi skirt for summer , new with tags from India at a thrift shop, and I have a great top to wear with it! I was soooo channeling you.. Would you wear the daisy blouse for a casual dressy outfit by teaming it with white jeans, your wonderful white open work/lattice shoes and that cool yellow/green bucket bag? I can't get that outfit out of my head.
    Girl, you look like a super skinny fashion model in the dark blue Asos dress. Can't wait to see you in it this fall with high boots, one of your great bags and some statement earrings.

    That daisy shirt is banging awesome on you! Now the teal skirt is really lovely but I’d like to be able to see that interesting stitching detail towards the waist band and the loose yellow shirt was hiding it. Two loose things don’t always work for me. The bright colored bag with that interesting blue dress - very chic

    Karen I always have a good time listening to you and seeing how excited you get with fashion. I am like you love thrift shopping and mixing them with my new finds. Love the dress.!
