Proof That You Can Thrift Any Aesthetic

April 03, 2024

Three looks, one thrift haul! See how Jade nailed 3 different aesthetics during one trip to her local Salvation Army Thrift Stores in Victoria, BC:

Aesthetic #1: Vintage Academia

Jade’s first ensemble exudes vintage academia vibes, drawing inspiration from the iconic styles of the 1960s and 1970s. She showcases a sweater vest, a thrifted gem from the men’s section, flawlessly paired with a well-fitted skirt and a Zara top. With thrifted loafers and her own accessories, including a bag, socks, and headband, Jade effortlessly embodies contemporary charm.

Aesthetic #2: Biker Chic

Transitioning to her second look, Jade channels the edgy allure of street style. Rocking a ruffle top and stylish boots reminiscent of designer brands, she proves that thrifted fashion can stand toe-to-toe with high-end counterparts. Her like-new biker jacket adds a sleek touch, seamlessly complemented by accessories from her personal collection. 

Aesthetic #3: Pretty Pastels

In her final ensemble, Jade curates a whimsical pastel outfit perfect for the spring season. Embracing soft hues, she pairs a thrifted pastel skirt with a simple white tee, adding sandals and her own accessories to complete the look, including a beautiful bow for added flair.
