It was only recently that fashionistas from all over the world were trying to haul the latest haute couture clothes to look stylish and elegant. However, there was a moment when society started to think about and implement the term “reasonable consumption” and that’s when buying vintage clothes became a new “luxury.”
Today, many people prefer to buy clothes, shoes, and accessories at thrift and second-hand shops, at flea markets, and at charity sales. It lets them not only outline their individuality and express themselves, but also care about the environment.

We at Bright Side are sure that one can often score unique and valuable things at flea markets and garage sales, and the pics in our article prove it.
