Christene Barberich is a writer, editor, advisor and thrifting aficionado. She famously co-founded Refinery29,  which started in 2005 and was sold in 2019. Most recently, she started a Substack Newsletter called A Tiny Apt. devoted to home (particularly small spaces), life, and personal style as well as her ongoing pursuit of amazing vintage and various sidewalk or foot-path finds. It’s one of my favourite Substack reads and I highly recommend you subscribe to it here.

In this episode we go deep - talking about thrifting as a life line, how it sees us through life's highs and lows; from it being our only means of shopping when we're broke, to rediscovering glamour after lockdown. It's a beautiful episode, by far one of my favourites from this season, and will have you craving a rummage session at the local thrift store in an instant.
