On today’s episode of Good Bodies, Emily and Lauren are talking all about thrifting and how finding a sense of style can both be a form of self care and body acceptance. Lauren offers up some thrifting tips for plus size shoppers and Emily delves into why it’s so hard to find the right fit when it comes to vintage finds. Then, they bring on guest Macy Eleni who is the author of “Second Chances: The Ultimate Guide to Thrifting, Sustainable Style, and Expressing Your Most Authentic Self” to share her valuable opinion and tips on the modern state of thrifting. Macy also opens about her history of disordered eating and how that played into (or didn’t play into) her love of thrifting and fashion. She beautifully explains how thrifting can be both meditative and healing while acknowledging how thin privilege can play a role. Thanks for the great conversation, Macy!
