       I know I say this often, but if you want more luxurious clothing that makes you happy when you look in the mirror there is no better way to invest your time or small $ than in tailoring, and/or made-to-measure clothing. I just got my new pants, and taking them out of the shipping bag and putting them on and having them fit perfectly is a simply magical experience.The thrift-ed blazer from the 80s altered was even better. The difference between "fits OK" and perfect fit is hard to explain.

       @futurebird completely agree.  Also applies to men.

       @futurebird but then I'd need to learn how to use a mirror. Never could get the hang of those dang things ...

       @futurebird I struggle not to thrift anymore because of the sheer quality and good price you can get some pieces for. I help the environment, get quality clothing AND don't break the bank? Literally no drawbacks

       @futurebird Yes! Taking clothes to the tailor is so worth it. Items that sort of fit turn into clothes that look like they were made for you.
