    Thred Up

    With National Recycling Week coming to a close, I wanted to share a secondhand clothing app that you can send your retired apparel into as well as purchase from… like an online Goodwill, but so much better because you can get cash for your donated clothing.

    So Thred Up is an online fashion resale app that sells secondhand apparel for women and children. You can purchase gently used and brand new (with tags attached) items for up to 90% off of what they originally sold for in stores. 


    They also buy secondhand clothing items as well, which is perfect for when you need to clean out your closet. You order a “clean out” kit, fill it up, and send it in. I’ve sent in three bags as of this post and have received somewhere in the ballpark of $30. Not much, true… but it was for items that I wasn’t ever going to wear again, so looking at it in that perspective, it’s a pretty good deal. A cleaner closet and an extra $30 bucks.


    So get those closets cleaned out and replace some unwanted clothes with something new.

    ๐Ÿ™‚ thanks for reading!

    Statement Shoes

    So if you are like me, wearing black is pretty much an everyday occurrence. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE color, but black is classic and it goes with everything which makes getting ready in the morning so much easier.One way I counterbalance my day to day outfits, so that I don’t constantly look like I am heading to a funeral or some underground goth party, is to add a pop of color or pattern with the shoes I choose to wear.

    Usually I search for more bold and bright shoes so that they really stand out from the otherwise monochromatic outfit, but if truth be told I can be seen in head to toe black quite often as well.

    So next time you are out and about shoe shopping, try opting for the colorful or more daring choice ๐Ÿ™‚
