Looking for great pieces for autumn but don’t have the funds? Well no worries, trading or selling your clothes to second hand stores or thrift shops will put extra cash in your wallet and a new look in your closet! If you’re in NYC check out Beacon’s Closet or Buffalo Exchange, two of my favorite second hand stores in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. There I can sale clothing I don’t need, buy staple pieces and donate things someone else will cherish.

Tip: sell things to the buyers that are in season, you’ll get more for the buck.

for more info go to beaconscloset.myshopify.com and buffaloexchange.com
