Shopping secondhand is something that I consider "healthy". I love the challenge of finding unique items that fit my personal style - for extremely low prices. For instance, I've found a red Le Chateau jacket for $9.99, a pair of orange suede boots (worth over $100) for $6.99, and two super bright 1970s dresses. Here are some of my favorite purchases from garage sales, clothes swaps, and thrift stores:
The last photo here is of a blanket given to me by a stranger on a plane. I was cold on a flight from Rome to Toronto, and a very nice Lebanese/Iraqi man insisted that I take this blanket. All secondhand items have a story - I encourage you to donate what you no longer wear and find some used treasures!
