The 4 Best Thrift Stores In NYC

I recently started thrifting a lot in the city especially since I've been trying to save my money. Finding good thrift stores in NYC can be a challenge so I thought I could share my favorites and help out someone who wants to shop but not spend too much money at the same time.

1. Cross Roads

Out of all of the thrift stores I've been to in New York City Cross Roads is by far the best one. They organize their clothes into sizes and skirts, pants, shorts, etc. I never feel overwhelmed at Cross Roads because everything is so well organized. Also, they have many pieces from Zara which is by far my favorite store of all time. They have a rack called "employees picks" and it's absolutely the best!

2. L Train Vintage

This thrift store has really good denim pieces. I got a pair of high waisted denim shorts there and they were $20 which is pretty pricey but I absolutely love them. Their denim shorts range anywhere from $5-$25 which is a pretty good deal! It's also right off of the L Train so it's super convenient to get to!

3. No Relation Vintage

I went here with my mom the other day and they had really cute flannels and jean jackets! It was also cheaper than Cross Roads and L Train Vintage. I didn't buy anything but I definitely plan on doing so. I found a really cute Lucky Flannel but it was pretty big on me. I definitely plan on coming back and buying something! The thing with thrift stores is that you have to constantly keep coming back because your size and preferred style isn't guaranteed to be at that store that same day.

4. Buffalo Exchange

If you're ever in the Flatiron District definitely check out Buffalo Exchange because it's less than a half a block away from Cross Roads! Buffalo Exchange is also another well-organized thrift shop which really helps a girl out whenever she's shopping. Shopping is already such a struggle so it's nice to go somewhere that's cheap and organized.

These are just some of my favorite thrift stores in NYC. I posted a Try-On Thrift Haul on my Youtube Channel that I will link down below! Thanks for reading!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

It's easier than you think.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
