Thrifting has seen a rise in popularity in recent years. Second-hand shopping has gained popularity among the younger generations.

“I like standing out with my clothes, especially at school, because I tend to be a very quiet person, and [thrifting] was a way for me to express myself and push myself outside of my comfort zone," said one 17-year-old thrifter in a Refinery29 piece on the Generation Z's love for thrifting.

But beyond curating a unique fashion sense, thrifting is both a more sustainable way to shop and a way to help notable organizations in your community.
