If you’re a thrift store connoisseur, you have undoubtedly stumbled across a fair amount of costume jewelry. But is it worth buying? Maeven owner Amy Yee reveals her secret thrift store shopping technique.
Costume Jewelry
“My rule on costume jewelry (and buying any vintage for that matter) is to buy what you really love. And while there are certainly collectible brand names, just as there are for anything fashion-related, there are plenty of beautiful, high-quality, unsigned pieces that are great buys. Plus, jewelry always fits! It’s an easy way to incorporate vintage into an outfit without taking a big risk.”
