well hi hello my friends it's nina
happy back to school season
you probably have been in school for quite a while
maybe it's been a few weeks maybe you still haven't started
i remember the good old days back in my youth
when i went to school... i remember my college days
i was so young
and then i graduated from college... two years ago
it's only been two years since i graduated? that doesn't sound right
no it's been two years
it's only been two years??
anyway i'm sure that you are probably back to school shopping
or you have already done it
but if you haven't yet you're probably planning to i hope
back to school season just reminds me of almost autumn weather
it is not quite autumn, it is still very hot at least where i'm from
the weather might be different for you but
where i am we don't get winter until probably late november
it's constantly hot
anyway i'm going to show you a little thrift haul
and maybe give some tips on how i kind of dressed up for college
how i style my outfits and hopefully it's a good time
and also shout out to thredup who is the sponsor of this video
i enjoy shopping from thredup
they have a lot of choices for second-hand clothing
i feel like it'll be a good place for you to go back to school shopping

happy back to school shopping and let's get into the haul
so even though i'm not going back to school
i am still going outside
so i would like to look put together and dress up a bit as well
so i got a good variety of stuff
hopefully this can inspire one you want to shop for for your outfits
or maybe you have items like these already and you can just pull them out of your closet
put them into your outfits
hopefully there's a little bit of outfit inspiration somewhere in this video
but i guess the first item that i can talk about is the top that i'm wearing right now
i actually got this without up let me just get up
okay
it's a short sleeve cardigan
it has two buttons and it just kind of opens up here
there's no buttons, i think that's pretty unique very cute
it has this nice thick sweater material
and under i'm just wearing a camisole, these are some white cargo pants
this was originally from the brand american eagle outfitters
for an estimated retail price of $50 and i got it for $13.99
i am a big fan of short sleeved cardigans
they just look put together
you literally just throw this on with a pair of pants and you're good to go
and then i just put on a delicate necklace
this is just my necklace that i made
and then i like to put my hair up and it's just
a nice transition from summer to fall
if i just don't want to wear a simple t-shirt with my pants
i just like to put on a short sleeve cardigan
i guess i'll go into another sweater
i got this cute blue sweater
this was also originally from american eagle outfitters
it has this nice fun retro stripe along the middle
i feel like a nice pair of wide leg pants or cargo pants would go great with this
this definitely just makes you look like a studious student
there are plenty of sweater tops like this on thredup
this is a nice sort of short fit as well
you can easily tuck these into your pants
it had an estimated retail price of $50
and i got it for $11.99
it's just a fun sweater, can't go wrong
next i will go into
i guess some t-shirts that i have
i love thrifting t-shirts
so i will show you one that i got
it is this nice black t-shirt with a graphic on it
i love the colors i love how bold it is
and i was happy to find a black t-shirt as well
graphic t-shirts are very easy to dress up
you can tuck these into some pants
you can wear a skirt, you can wear it under some overalls
i just love finding a good t-shirt that i can wear in 20 different outfits
and then you can also wear some chain necklaces, layer some necklaces
chokers, really play around with the accessories
my favorite part of outfits is just accessories
i'm a pretty simple person
i'll just have a lot of basics and then pile stuff on top of it
but this was originally from zara
it's estimated retail price was $10 and i got it for $6.99 on thredup
definitely a good choice especially for warmer weather
you can't go wrong with a t-shirt
and then i got another t-shirt
but this is a little more simple
it's kind of like a faded wash
so it makes the shirt look a little vintage, a little like it had a very busy life before
it says beverly boulevard 1978
i wasn't alive back then i was not born
i was... i didn't even exist
anywho i love that it's sort of on the pocket area
i think that's kind of quirky
quirky?
and again same thing you can tuck these into some pants
this shirt is a light material i feel like you can just tie it
and then you can wear it with a nice white midi skirt maxi skirt
to kind of contrast the style a little bit
i love wearing a casual t-shirt with a nice mini skirt
maxi skirt
kind of to make the outfit a little more put together but
at the same time kind of casual
so you can wear it for any occasion
so this shirt is also originally from zara
its estimated retail price was $10 and i got it for $8.99
i just really love t-shirts
and then next i have this button-up shirt
but i love the blue and white stripes
i think it's very classic
and i also love the gold buttons
i feel like this would pair well with some gold jewelry
you can play around with the accents of a top
i think also while i'm at it i might talk about some other things that i got
i did get some accessories from thredup
you can also find accessories on there
i got a couple purses
are these really ideal for back school?
probably not, you can't fit notebooks here
but i got it for myself
i guess i'll talk about this
so i got this nice tan satchel
it is very cute i don't really have bags with this sort of shape
it just stands on your desk
this was originally from the brand violet ray
this actually had an estimated retail price of $74
but i got it for $13.99 on thredup
very very happy about this find
and then along with that i got one more purse
you will be able to find backpacks tote bags bigger bags on thredup
so if you want to find an accessory for school you'll be able to find it
but i got a white satchel
lots of compartments
the satchel was originally from forever 21 with an estimated retail price of $28
and on thredup i got it for $13.99
so be on the lookout for backpacks bags tote bags
anything you need for school
anyway back to the top
this can be good for casual situations more formal situations
maybe like an interview or something
but for button ups i like to wear them alone
just as they are
a nice pair of white pants, some kind of skirt
the options are limitless
i feel like with this you can also tuck it into your pants and then
put on a sweater vest over
button ups are perfect for sweater vests
this is just a nice basic simple piece to have
so you can play around with it
and this was actually also from zara
something i like to do on thredup is go through the brands that they have
look through whatever they have put on specific filters
such as size color material even pattern. stripes
but sorting through specific brands is also a tip that i have
it had an estimated retail price of $36 and i got it for $14.99 on thredup
it's a good shirt
next for the tops i will talk about some flannel shirts that i got
i love flannel shirts
when i go thrifting i also like looking for flannel shirts
they're just very versatile
so i got this cute green flannel shirt
the material is very nice very soft very lightweight
this was originally from american eagle outfitters
its estimated retail price was $50
and i got it for $11.99
and again the styling options are limitless
so i like to wear a tank top a camisole
and then i'll wear a nice high-rise skirt, high-rise pants
and this is just nice to wear on top of all that
it looks like a picnic blanket when i fold it like this
and honestly if you catch yourself wanting to sit out on the grass
and you're not wearing this because the weather is so frickin hot
you can just lay this out and sit on it, also a hack
omg that was barely a sneeze
anyway i got another flannel
this is a nice red blue color
this was originally from the brand topshop
it had an estimated retail price of $52
and i got it for $13.99
i love how light it is and again you can style it the same ways i mentioned
so that is it for my tops
i think i will go into a dress that i got
i love getting dresses and i found this cute dress
it is a floral print
i haven't gotten floral prints in a while
dresses are just easy to put on
they're comfortable flowy
but my favorite way to style them is with a t-shirt under
i have some long sleeves with nice collars
even a turtleneck
and you can put necklaces on top
so basically i like to wear layers
to make an outfit more casual i like to throw on an oversized hoodie
oversized hoodies are like my security blanket
this also only applies if the weather's not too hot outside
or if you have a class late at night
that works too
very cute
and then if you do want to look put together a nice cardigan
and then you can take off the t-shirt under
do whatever you want
i just think it's kind of cute when i have layers like this
you can easily change a piece by the way that you tuck it fold it wear it
maybe like off the shoulders instead of fully on
like i do with flannels
fold your cardigan if it's too long
so it's kind of like a cropped look
and now it looks like you're wearing just a simple skirt
variety
so this dress is originally from the brand kimchi blue
it had an estimated retail price of $60 and i got it for $12.99
and then now i am moving on to the bottoms
i guess i will go into this denim skirt that i got
it is just a simple skirt that goes on your waist
it has a button detail all the way down
but with this skirt this is how you unbutton it
and then you button it together again
now i have to re-button it
it took me a long time to button this
i love the shape i love the black color
but this would also go great with sweaters
this definitely reminds me of fall outfits
a nice sweater slightly tucked with this
this is from the brand bdg
with an estimated retail price of $36 i got it on thredup for $13.99
again every piece from here was each under $15
and then i got one more skirt
this is a sort of pencil skirt actually
i don't own a lot of pencil skirts
i thought this was very business like
business formal business casual
this would definitely go great with sweaters kind of tucked in
this just reminded me of the fall, it reminded me of college
and i'm a fan of long skirts
so this was also originally from zara
its estimated retail price was $40 and i got it for $13.99
but i want to get a few more formal pieces for my wardrobe
so i got this
definitely would be a good pair
accessories are fun
and then here is the final piece in this haul
i don't have pants like this
and it is this pair of flare pants
i think they're also known as bell bottoms
it has a very retro look
i love the way they fit on me
and they're surprisingly also very comfortable
oh shoot i'm also running out of battery
i just realized you could see my
can i actually show you what that is
i have these little bts cutouts
i have the rest of the members
but for some reason they were just peeking right there
anyway that's what that was
but i will finally talk about my last piece
it is these flare bell bottom pants
nice and long they fit me well
the material is nice and kind of stretchy
i don't really have a pair of flare pants or bell bottom pants
so this was also from american eagle
i didn't really branch out with the brands
there's a lot of brands though
its estimated retail price was $45 and i got it for $14.99 on thredup
this was everything that i got
i hope this inspired you a little with your back-to-school shopping plans
or maybe you got some style tips or ideas from this as well
