About

 

Hi and welcome to Pop Chic Thrift! This page combines my love of pop culture, thrifty fashion, and a positive lifestyle that fosters self expression.

During the Spring of 2016, I embarked on a journey of getting healthy both mentally and physically. This lifestyle change and weight loss rekindled my love of style, fashion, and thrift shopping. To afford clothes throughout my transformation, I took my newfound inspiration and energy and put it to use in thrift shops, vintage boutiques, local retailers, and kitschy online shops. I began posting my looks, inspired by art, nostalgia, music, and more on the Instagram page @pop_chic_thrift.

Jump to October 31, 2017 (Halloween, my favorite holiday), I decided it was time to take Pop Chic Thrift to a blog and write about my thrifty finds and looks. What a perfect time of year to inspire others to #ReinventYourselfEveryday, embrace iconic looks of decades past, romp in “everyday cosplay”, and express yourself on a budget! Here I bring you, Pop Chic Thrift = Thrifty Style + Pop Panache! Enjoy.

Truly yours,

Leigh
