    COMMON QUESTIONS:
    How old are you (were you born in '83)? I was born august 3rd 1994 (currently 25), the "83" in alexasunshine83 is for 08/03-83! Basically alexasunshine was taken 😬
    Why do you thrift? To stop my consumption of fast fashion due to the horrible treatment of workers and the negative environmental impact of waste fast fashion produces. I recommend the documentary The True Cost 👍🏻

    The turtleneck things are called Dickies, they were also made and sold that way for layering without bulk.

    OMG that blue jumpsuit! I wore a dress made exactly like that, shoulder pads, V-neck, pockets, only in dress form. I loved it. I wore it to death in the late 1980s-early 90s. What a great style and so flattering! Your mom is probably super cool.

    I just love the blue & black jumpsuits! And the V part of the belt definitely goes in the back. And my, I was really laughing at your reaction at finding all of those cut up turtlenecks! So hilarious!! 😂 And it also reminded me of the crazy things my grandmother would save and we found after she passed away. Like sweater sleeves...just the sleeve...cut off and very carefully saved. No idea why! We were just as confused! I suppose she wanted to do something with it but never got around to it. Found lots of remains of cut up clothing. But it gets COLD here. I mean -20 F windchills so you learn to dress in layers with warm fabrics. And cotton can be deadly in winter! ❄

    This is so fun! That blue jumpsuit and purple dress are my favorites! I went through my mom’s old clothes at the end of last year and it was so fun!
