Of course, I knew I had to participate because it was right up my alley. The themes included: Favorite 90’s TV Show, Favorite Music Icon, Magazine Ad, and Brand Freestyle. The rules were that 50% of the outfit had to be thrifted and you had to post a picture of yourself and inspiration for each challenge. The easiest part was making sure half of my outfit is thrifted because around 85% of my wardrobe is secondhand. Therefore, I challenged myself to use existing items from my closet for each challenge rather than taking trips to Goodwill. 

Over the last few years, I’ve become somewhat of a sneakerhead. However, the sneaker game has elevated, which also means that prices are also high. But as a thrifter, paying $100 and more for one pair blows my mind. Thankfully good people donate great items, including sneakers, to Goodwill!
