Everybody has their favorite type of shopping. When it comes to saving money and getting good quality pieces, thrifting might be the choice for you. Thrifting has many ways of shopping, such as going to vintage stores, second hand shops, and of course thrift shops. Thrift shopping is time consuming, and you may not be successful at the store you visit, but the satisfaction you get from finding the perfect piece of clothing is one of the best feelings. When it comes to thrifting, in my opinion there is one thing should look into before going thrifting. The main thing for me is to do research of the location of the store and the reviews. If the store is in a popular area, the store could be more saturated and there won’t be as much of a selection for your size, or the quality of the products may not be good. An example of a thrift store I wouldn’t recommend going to is 2nd Ave Thrift Superstores in Hamilton, New Jersey.
The reason I say this is because it is very saturated with young adults and teens so it is a good chance you will not find your size and if you do there’s a little selection. A great place to go thrift is The Goodwill outlet store in Bellmawr, New Jersey. The Goodwill store has a large selection of products and rotating bins of clothes that rotate every hour, hour and a half. It is so easy to go through a bin and find things you like, and sometimes you find designer pieces for a great price.

About me

My favorite thing to do is workout and shop. Working out and shopping are my getaway from reality. Being in the gym and feeling the gains helps me tremendously become more confident in myself but it also helps me become less anxious. My anxiety can get bad sometimes so if I feel it getting worse I may bring myself to go workout or go to the nearest thrift store and shop. Shopping online or at a thrift store are my go to’s for shopping. I tend to stay away from retail stores and or malls because I never truly find anything I like and online the sales and discounts are the best. I have a dog, her name is Hazel Grace from the “Fault In Our Stars”. She is a german shepard, and she is so well behaved. She barks non-stop though, that’s her only downfall. In the future I want to have my own clothing brand where I am able to give an outlook on how I see fashion and become a really big designer like Virgil. When I think of fashion, I don’t think of what brand the piece of clothing is or ho...

My First Store

Image
Hello everybody, it's Quincy again and I would like to proudly announce the beginning of a project I’ve been working on. I am opening my own clothing store. The name of my store is Fits. My store is located in the fashion district in New York. The mission of Fits is to make customers confident in themselves through clothing. The store connects to my blog through fashion and mental health. The store is set out to help build confidence within customers which could lead to a better mental health. You should expect to see a section for second hand clothing, vintage pieces, and some luxury street wear clothing. My store will look simple but a lot at the same time. It would be white walls with white ceiling and marble floor. The shelves would be white and the counters woould be a white bottom with a marble top. The store would look very modern with floor to ceiling windows in the front of the store with glass doors. As far as decorations go I would buy paintings from local artists a...

My Fashion Influences

Image
This is going to be my final post for this blog! I very much enjoyed speaking with you about the topics I had written about previously. This week I wanted to write an appreciation post about some of my favorite people who have influenced me in some of the things I wear. The first type of style I wanted to talk about is Tyler The Creator’s style. Known for having cropped pants, colorful designs on his shirts, or his nails, platform loafers, and the unique hats and trunks he incorporates. Tyler has been a big inspiration to me because he wears what he wants, and he doesn’t care what other people wear. His style is unique and has influenced many other people to wear certain things that they may not have worn before. Another big influence for me is Lil Yachty. His style in my opinion is oversized clothes, sometimes vintage preppy look with Ralph Lauren Or Tommy Hilfiger. He mixes different types of shoes like boots, sneakers, designer trainers. His style is very broad due to his exte...
