Bonjour! Salut! Bienvenue!
According to Merriam-Webster, "chic" means elegant and sophisticated. Here at Chez Chica, we'll be showcasing not only fashionable items—but second-hand (or even third or fourth hand) scores from thrift stores, Goodwill, Salvation Army, garage sales, and more.
Many people believe that being fashionable means buying the latest seen in Vogue. But with a little effort, you can be a cheap "chic chica" while saving the planet (and your pocketbook).
Yes, green is the new black. By purchasing previously owned clothes, you will be breathing new life not only into your wardrobe but also into the garments themselves. Plus, you will be able to try out brand-new looks at a fraction of the cost of buying new. Want to try out a Joan Jett rocker look? Buying your leather second-hand will save you hundreds—plus, your skins will already be beat-in and beautiful.
Each week, we will be showcasing thrift store finds—and ways to make your treasures fashionable.
Au revoir!
The Chic Chica
