Haha Khar shouldnt be giving advice, let alone fashion advice!
Anyway, its usually not worth the effort to find rad stuff at thrift stores. You might say Im wrong but most of the time the items are just not to be found, are ill-fitted or just plain the wrong size.
Whereas you buy new, you can get nice things EASILY.
And keep in mind, well dressed men and well dressed women tend to have different requirements. Women can add and subtract pieces of clothing to put together an outfit, whereas men typically have to start with a nice staple and accessorise over top of it.
