Because how else will they sell to impressionable people
I think they return a lot of clothes when they do massive hauls. A lot never seem to actually wear all the stuff they purchase. I guess they must put the receipts through as business expenses as they are creating content,like they can if they vlog days out/meals?Why do influencers shop so much? They keep spending! Don't they feel deflated afterwards? It's just material it's not going to change your life for the better. It's irrelevant unless you truly need it. Why not focus on the planet and helping genuine causes. Life can turn on a dime. What you have now may not be what you end up with...
Mr CarringtonSlightly off topic, but can anyone recommend some YouTube channels or Instagram accounts (preferably British), who film charity shop 'hauls' and similar? I love fashion and style videos but I'm so sick of endless Primark and Zara hauls, things bought to be worn once and then never seen again
I don’t know of any personally and if you find any let me know but as an avid charity shopper the problem I find is a lot of charity shops now are stocked full of Primark, New Look, Matalan etc just tons of fast fashion, honestly 7 items out of 10 on the rails are from Primark these days and it’s totally ruined the fun of it for me. I once went to a specialist ‘vintage’ charity shop & they had a Matalan handbag on sale for £15, never turned & left a place so fast. I do feel sorry for them though because if that’s all people are donating they’ve no choice but to sell it!Slightly off topic, but can anyone recommend some YouTube channels or Instagram accounts (preferably British), who film charity shop 'hauls' and similar?

This I used to find loads of gems in charity shops, cashmere jumpers for less than a fiver and a 100% wool coat that's lasted me for years. Now it's just like a Primark sale rack! I thought it was maybe just my local town but it's obviously not. I've found a few thrifters on YouTube but it's usually young girls on the search for 'vintage' sportswear - (stuff that 90s P.E teachers wore ) so it doesn't really appeal to me. Freya Farrington does the odd charity shop vlog but for every second hand item, she buys/gets gifted a load of fast fashion so it kind of defeats the purpose.I don’t know of any personally and if you find any let me know but as an avid charity shopper the problem I find is a lot of charity shops now are stocked full of Primark, New Look, Matalan etc just tons of fast fashion, honestly 7 items out of 10 on the rails are from Primark these days and it’s totally ruined the fun of it for me.
