You know what I hate about thrifting? When you spot this beautiful, funky and colorful sweater and then of course you check the color for the label and there is none and you assume the absolute best, of course. And then you want to check for the material and yeah, no thanks.

Is Shein different in other countries because the clothes I've ordered from there are really durable and cute 🤔
A SHEIN reveal is always 🤢 I put em straight back. Plastic clothes.
Better to be reowned then in a landfill
Eye roll
Some of ya'll weren't poor growing up and it shows. 😂 When I was little, underwear was a luxury and we were NOT getting new clothes. It blows my mind that we are so ungrateful about everything. The fact that you have an opinion on fashion is a first world problem.
Passing on fast fashion at the thrift bc it's fast fashion contributes to land fills
If you like it but it don't be a douche…..from the thrift
I agree, I stay as far as I can from SHIEN
Thrift shopping did NOT used to be this way!!! Only crap now.
Literally happened to me today but i loved the shirt so much that i just accepted defeat and bought it , at least it wasnt. From the website itself
So what? Youre buying it 2nd hand and as far as my knowledge goes, shein doesnt get a cut from thrifting their products
Heard!
Yup I’m never taking anything from SHEIN or fashion nova from the thrift store I refuse!
Buying shein second hand isnt a bad thing
Do you think it's same price new
I LOVE CONAN SO MUCH IM SO SPIRITUALLY CONNECTED TO HIM WE ARE BEST FRIENDS HE JS DOESNT KNOW IT YET❤
There's absolutely nothing wrong with buying fast fashion from a thrift store. As long as the price is good and you actually really like the piece, you're stopping it from going to a landfill or being shipped off to another country to pilot their land.
I have Thrifted fashion fashion that has lasted me years because I treat them pretty well and I hand wash anything that can't really survive a washing machine.
This logic is stupid
I also thrift for the materials. the other day the lady said to me "you picked all labeled" and I was "its all 100% soft beautiful cotton"
The sweater gives off Enid vibe
I remember i was about to buy this sweater 10 years ago from wish. Thank god i know better now.
For me, it’s when I go thrifting and I find a really cute thing, and it’s three sizes too big
in my opinion, if it cute and i like/want it then im gonna get it. who cares if its shein? it is a thrift store so…
Me too sis.
I love shien so burn my at the steak ok ca cancel me lol I dont care
Let’s be honest, 6.99 for SHEIN is probably full price. 😂 I see Dollar Tree stuff at Goodwill for like 3.99 all the time.
Yes that's happened. It's a immediate NO
Thst hook in her nose is so gross it gags me. Does she have a boyfriend who puts a rope on it snd pull her around? Thsts so gross. It looks like snot hanging out.
OK, but not buying it. Doesn’t that contribute to throwing it in a minefield one day??
If its beautiful then wtf does the label matter?
Yeah, but it’s second hand what’s the problem? 🤷🏻♀️
So true! Thrift shops are full of shein.
Look ridiculous standing motionless with mouth wide open like a mannequin.
Yep, pass.
Oh just buy it
I would undo it and make my own balls of yarn
‘beautiful’
Same yesterday it happened
not worth sweating in a plastic sweater with cancer chemicals
You know what I love, clothes to cover my body and not being too picky
Oh stfu
The damn things have about 15 wears in them until they fall apart… when you are thrifting you have no idea of the sweater is on wear 2 or wear 14. They are like 10 bucks now at the thrift so I’m not risking a tenner on these items with a small number of lives
You know what I hate about thrifting?
that such a wonderful resource for those who are less fortunate has been overrun by people who are doing it as a hobby or for reselling purposes.
i think everyone is fair to feel how they feel about thrifting shein clothes.. i agree its definitely better to thrift them then actually buy them yourself, as you are giving the clothing a 2nd life and continuing to prevent it from ending up in landfill by using the clothing, especially if it gets snatched up by a crafty DIY person-
BUT i agree that its also safe to be careful and fine to not want to thrift shein clothes what-so-ever. a few people make a very good point that shein clothes are notorious for being made of and exposed to all sorts of weird and nasty chemicals, and they are likely to fall apart much quicker compared to other higher quality clothing, certainly cant fault anyone for avoiding them at all costs lol.
Nobody in my family can wear polyester plastic material, it starts to smell and falls apart. The smell is the worst part. Sweaty teens stink enough then to put them in polyvrap
