Where do you buy your clothes from?

Lately been on a huge target and express bender...if that's a thing. Target's clothes are legit super cute and cozy. I don't know about their graphic tees/tops and such but can't go wrong with the basics. I have so many sweaters and honestly they're great. But also don't really need anymore business casual clothes from express and I don't do the casual dress up thing ever. I'm super lacking on chill clothes and not like chill at home clothes but like if I want to go get coffee and sit in public kind of chill clothes.


I've recently been introduced to the aspen collection and it's just a bunch of t shirts. They're super cute but also a little basic but I'd totally wear them lol

Also Disney has a nat geo line of clothes now and I am digging them.




So yeah where do you guys like to shop and/or online shop?

I buy from outdoor brands mostly: Prana, Patagonia, Mountain Hardwear, and the outlier is American Eagle.

I do need a new swimsuit though, and I’m nervous about ordering it online, so I’ll probably go to Target for that.

I LOVE target's bathing suits. Like they actually fit and they make some with like extra support which is fab.

I live in active wear which is usually prana, patagonia, lululemon, and Eddie Bauer. But when I wear an actual shirt or maybe jeans I usually buy free people, vans, and HM. Sierra Trading Post is the best though. So many different brands for cheap!


I also need a new swimsuit... my tits are massive so I have the hardest time finding anything that gives me support but is still cute. Unpopular opinion though, I don’t like Target’s suits. I’ve been wearing a triangle bikini top from Rip Curl that fits my boobs and isn't a grandma top! Also Hollister (lol) has awesome swim bottoms that are cute and fit bigger hips!

I mainly thrift or buy directly from artists/designers now since I have a super bad habit of hoarding clothing, so I've made a goal to be super thoughtful of what I'm buying and why. If I buy stuff new it's generally Free People, Urban Outfitters, or Madewell. Volcom always has super sick stuff as well!

Thrift stores mostly and have gotten stuff at Fleet Farm which is like a department store for outdoor work trades. I'm not really into clothes so I don't have a ton. I hate how the stereotypical womens clothing feels, the tight fitting chinsy feeling thin garments. I wear jeans , tshirt and hoodie to work so thats pretty much what I wear all the time.

I almost exclusively shop on Depop now and I don’t think I’ll go back to retail.


Depop is a reselling app like Poshmark, but so much easier to use with a very Instagram kind of layout. I’ve bought everything from vintage memorabilia, sports equipment, and high end luxury off various sellers and as long as you check the reviews (like you should with anything bought online) it’s usually pretty safe.


plussss there’s the huge impact fashion has on the environment so buying second hand (and staying away from poly/washing in a poly catching bag) is just another little way to reduce your footprint

I had no clue about this until super recently either but I a lot of micro plastics in the ocean come from pieces of polyester breaking off during the wash cycle and not being filtered out of grey water
