no more new stuff

here's 40 secondhand gems on sale <3

Nov 24, 2024

TL;DR: Here are 40 EXCELLENT secondhand designer items on sale for Black Friday. Shopping these links means I get a little kickback from Vestiare. Woohoo!

I hate Black Friday. It gives me itchy palms.

I feel overwhelmed by the constant barrage of advertising. Every company is desperate to clear its inventory before the end of the year, and every haul I scroll through makes me feel envious and greedy. I start to salivate and crave New Stuff.

And that’s how I know I’m not allowed to participate in this bizarre consumerist holiday, with one exception. I can shop secondhand. Fashion for good, right!?

If shopping secondhand is a sport, I’m a D1 athlete. It takes major hours to get your algorithm this good. And if you ask me, Vestiare is doing it the best these days.

Here are the best items on my recent-finds list:

These size 35 over-the-knee croc-embossed leather Totême boots. Never worn and less than $200.
This double-breasted beige Miu Miu trench coat in a size S for $223. Insane.
This cute pink Paco Rabanne bag in perfect condition for $254.
This green wool overshirt from Arket for only $46. Green is an underrated holiday color in my opinion.
This Vivienne Westwood Anglomania printed coat for less than $200. This and a long black skirt and leather boots? And a messy Helena Bonham Carter up-do?!

The categories are: Outerwear, Sweaters, Tops, Bottoms, Shoes, Bags, and Accessories.
