For one of our activities today, we explored a new and upcoming trend, thrift shopping! This allowed us to start to use our knowledge we gained from the classroom in the real world of fashion. Our group was split into pairs, and we were assigned to pick an outfit consisting of a top, bottoms, and shoes. We spent time searching through the numerous racks carefully considering color dynamics, patterns, unique factors, etc. to ultimately come up with what our group thought was the “best outfit”. After every pair had their final product we tallied costs, took pictures, and lastly drove off to Bond Park for lunch. At lunch we sat by the lake where we discussed why we chose what we did, how it made us feel, and many more fashion related subjects. All in all it was a very successful and fun afternoon. e us feel, and many more fashion related subjects. All in all it was a very successful and fun afternoon.
