When thinking of shopping, one may think of racks lined with new clothes that have never been worn. Shopping may have the stereotype of being a wealthy person’s hobby or that one must spend a ton of money to have fashionable looks. However, over the past few years, a new form of shopping has emerged. And I think this type of shopping would be better referred to as treasure hunting.
Nowadays, one does not what to spend a lot of money on just one trend. With the pace that fashion moves, it would be nearly impossible to keep up with the latest trends and styles if they were all hundreds of dollars. It is to the consumer’s advantage to find stylish looks at an affordable price, and this is exactly what this Fashionista has done!
