Create Multiple Styles to Wear from the Arc Second Hand Clothing Store
Most of us are dreaming about that new pair of jeans or handbag that is just a little out of the budget. One of my favorite hobbies is shopping at a second hand clothing store. As a longtime lover of second hand clothing, recycled clothing definitely has a permanent place in my closet. While there are many ways to approach the second hand shopping adventure, I have some trusted tips that can help make your experience a bit more enjoyable no matter what your style is and you’ll save money in the process.
Western
When shopping for western wear it can be pretty pricey at places like Boot Barn or Tractor Supply. Simply shopping second hand can save you a ton of cash. When looking for a new pair of boots don’t forget to glance through the men’s section. Seems like there is always a larger men’s cowboy boot selection than women’s. Western belt buckles may be located in several places throughout a second hand store. They may be located with the belts or locked in a case if they are collector quality so make sure you ask an associate for assistance.
Punk
Shopping for punk styles at a second hand clothing store is great because there are so many one-of-a-kind items. Finding those $100 pair of skinny jeans that have rips just like you want them can be found for $5-$10, now that’s a steal! Or search through the aisles of clothing and find that smashing guitar tee shirt that’s going to look great on you at the party this weekend. I’ll bet its bargain priced too. Check out these tips on dressing punk.
Casual
If you’re looking for that everyday casual wear you can find the best deals at second hand stores. The Arc Stores have gently used higher end or designer brands of clothing, shoes and purses in a separate location known as the Timeless Boutique.
Formal
Do you have an upcoming formal or prom? Another opportunity to save money when you shop at a second hand clothing store. There are usually an abundance of formal dresses and they were probably only worn once. Check out the shoe section for a pair to match that “new to you” formal dress. You might just get lucky and find the perfect match.
Boho
Hey all you boho chicks out there! Is it hard to find unique clothing to fit your style? Every second hand store has a little boho in stock. Those high wasted shorts are back and they are everywhere. Who doesn’t want a new pair of Birkenstocks to show off?
Don’t be foolish by shopping retail and paying full price. Shopping second hand is fun and will save you so much money. So whether your swing dancing or going to a head banging rock concert, shopping at a second hand clothing store like the Arc Store will get you that jaw dropping outfit you have been dreaming about.
