Starting in college I discovered my city’s wonderful secondhand resources and I’ve rarely shopped outside of those stores since.My favorite is Goodwill for their really reasonable prices (as opposed to a vintage premium), their excellent selection, and their commitment to amazing principles as a nonprofit.

Summer has rolled around and that means only one thing… Back in March I did a wardrobe cull, chucking out nearly 50% of the clothes I had kept for years.

I whittled it down to one wardroe, filling it with pieces that were clean cut, would go with anything, and were interchangeable throughout the seasons.

I think these Authentic Ripped Jamie Jeans will be another great addition to my wardrobe.

PINAFORE DRESS | Whenever I buy a new item of clothing I try and picture it with a variety of outfits.

At lunchtime move to the more bohemian El Raval neighbourhood for tapas, as well as a selection of second-hand clothes stores to find some unique outfits.
