Nowadays, more and more people are becoming aware of the bad side of the fast fashion industry and searching for more sustainable options for their clothing—be it high-quality clothes with timeless design, thrift stores for secondhand and vintage that give unwanted clothes another try, or repairing, redesigning, and upcycling to give your old clothes a new twist. 38-year-old Jillian Owens transforms thrift-store clothing into brand-new looks to avoid buying from fast fashion retailers and save a lot of money.

Stunning!  You must know your way around a sewing machine.  I love Thrift stores too, but I often buy sets and use the bottom or top with something I pick up off the clearance rack at another store.  I really enjoy the hunt and creativity required.
