Do you take offence to hand-me-downs?
Updated | By Jane Linley-Thomas
There's nothing wrong with accepting second-hand clothes, right? Well, Jane's producer thinks otherwise. Now she's shared her thoughts and wants to know what you think about it?
Listen as KZN and Jane react to the topic in the podcast then read more below:
Oh boy, if you know me you will know that scratching around a second-hand shop is so my love language. From decor and vinyls to quirky forgotten items to second-hand vintage clothes. Oh, I love scooping up a pre-loved bargain!
I find that when rummaging through stores which stock second-hand clothes, I almost always come out with a bargain. Just the other day, I visited a local store and found a gorgeous skirt priced at next to nothing. I feel that our clothes tell a story and this skirt spoke volumes to me when I laid my eyes on it.
I am always amused by people's reactions when either offering once-worn clothes, that is, an outgrown school uniform or the likes thereof. In fact, the other day someone I know was so insulted at the thought of being offered someone's once worn clothes. I mean, really?!
