Video Post: Thrift Shopping in New York City

this summer i was contacted by Amoi to record a Thrift Shopping Segment for her YouTube Channel. Of course I had to oblige...i mean i love thrifting! In this episode Amoi and I take to one of my fave thrift and vintage gems in New York City that I discovered while living close by in NYU dormitories. It has since been a favorite of mine!

Thrift Find: Vintage White Leather Jacket

i am doing a mental back flip. why you ask??? because I cannot do a literal back flip.
but back flips aside...i have found what i've been searching for!
a vintage white leather jacket!
spotted it while waiting in line at Beacon's Closet to try on vintage dresses. it was the only thing i left the store with but i am sooooo hyped about it. i love it when i can strike something off my wardrobe wishlist.
