Digging for gems through racks can make shopping a unique and fun experience. Sure, going to your nearest Forever 21 and H&M store makes things easy, but you won’t find “treasures” shopping there. Thrifting is the best way to find affordable clothing items that can make you stand out, and luckily NYC has some of the best thrift places to shop!
