Sick of cheap, wasteful, disposable fast fashion? Learn how to shop for vintage clothing and accessories and build a more sustainable, stylish closet.

In this indispensable guide, anyone who buys or wears women's clothing will learn how to:

● Sort trash from treasure

● Fix minor flaws—and spot major ones

● Find your ideal silhouette (including tips for plus-size shoppers)
