Why buy recycled clothes?

Why buy new when you can get a designer dress 50 pounds or dollars? Karen Powell Second-hand accounts need not be the best.

I meet friends for dinner with a classic linen shirt, Armani trousers and a vintage suede jacket. In a moment during the night, the conversation turns to clothing. Revelo cost of my equipment is second hand and the three combined pieces less than 50. Eyes widen and jaws drop. Dead silence. I take this opportunity to share more about my passion for pre-owned fashion.

Charity shops, vintage boutiques and consignment shops bulging with cast-off fashion, pre-owned clothing commonly referred to as second hand, recycled, gently worn, used, as new and vintage. These destinations alternative range of shops and value delivery. From basic T-shirts to designer suits, many of the issues I find are barely used, stylish and affordable.

I continue to boast that every time you buy new rather than help me to reduce the flow of discarded textiles went to landfill. Moreover, buying second-hand conserving natural resources used in the manufacture of new clothing.

Before I can finish my friends bombard me with questions: Where is the best place to buy? Is there much choice? Can you negotiate? What about stains and odor? Heres what I say:

Know where buy

The success in finding second-hand clothes that suit your personal style and budget depends largely on where you shop.

Concepts basic fashion: If you are looking for casual clothing every day, but classical or contemporary, check out the big chains charity. You will find a wide selection of Women, Men and boys clothing and accessories of various brands, in good to excellent condition. Prices are low to moderate. Basics fashion can be easily found at garage sales, flea markets and small shops of second hand as well.

Designer Labels: A consignment shop is the place to go if you prefer moderate to high-end designer brands. Some sell exclusively to women? S wear or children? s clothing, for example. While other provide clothing for the whole family. You will find a variety of luxury clothing in good to excellent condition. Although you'll pay more than the charity prices in the store, the savings are large compared with buying new.

Harvest: For those of you who love the look of yesteryear, it is best addressed directly to the vintage boutiques, vintage exhibits, sales of goods and online auction sites. Occasionally, I'm lucky and find pieces of vintage in charity shops and bazaars. Due to the popularity of retro fashion, selection and prices vary depending on the style, age and where you shop.

Check the status

Before buying a second hand clothing check for wear and stains especially in areas that might not be obvious immediately, such as collars and cuffs inside the crotch and armpits. Note: putting in food, ink or rust stains can be difficult or impossible to remove.

For items for worn or moth holes, open the clothes and keep the light. If you do not have what it takes to repair, well out of spent objects ago.

Most of the smells as you must, perfumes and smoke can be removed. Always wash your buying second hand before adding to your closet or drawer.

Save time and money

Keep an eye reductions and special sales. Thrift stores often offer discounts on a daily basis, as well as reductions pricing during the holidays and in-store events.

Time to shop with half-hour stores. Some resale shops put new items on the floor daily, others might stock once a week on a particular day.

Resale shops have no return, no exchange policy. If youre looking to match a particular color or style to something in your closet, take the item with you when shopping. If you're shopping for someone other than yourself, score a few basic measurements.

Be sure to bargain when you shop at flea markets, garage sales, antique shows and antique shops. I always ask, Is your best price? or will it take (name your price) for that?

Donate or consign unwanted clothes and discards in the fabric of homes in and use of charity shops shipping. Their recycling efforts you can earn cash.

Get Creative

If you can not find what you're looking for, that you yourself! Theres a lot of creative potential in second-hand clothing and other textiles discarded items such as bedding, linens, curtains, etc. used clothing Customize recycled dress with embellishments, embroidery, dye or fabric paint. They combine the features of a piece with another to create an original design. Consider sheets, curtains and tablecloths and yards for the manufacture of new garments with a commercial sewing pattern or your own.
