I went downtown to go shopping/browsing through some hidden gem shops and also Value Village. I was definitely on a mission to thrift the perfect staple items for my wardrobe that would help me put together outfits for everyday wear, since I still struggle with that!
I set s couple of strict guidelines for myself, along with a few other notions in my head about what pieces would bring true value to my closet.
My rules:
1. The item needs to fit
2. No noticeable stains or tears
3. Things that require little to no alterations
4. Good color that will match my existing wardrobe!
Having these in mind helped me pick out the best items, and leave the “just ok” items behind. My wallet was better for it.
My goal over the year is to really establish my closet as something that is valuable to me in the long run. I want high quality clothes that I can take care of and keep basically for as long as possible, which means it needs to be built of timeless things rather than trendy things, realistic for wear/won’t get ruined easily, and things that really resonate with me and my style (which is subject to change, but dark academia/witchy has been my favorite style since I could form opinions, so that’s my basis).

I have that green "tinker bell" skirt! I bought it exactly 10 years ago when I was in highschool! It is supposed to be a skirt, that's what it was advertised as in the shop I bought it at. I was on a school trip and we saw a play that evening after shopping. I didn't want to wear my sweaty jeans and t'shirt so I wore it as a dress actually lol. If you look inside, under the skirt, you will find 4 little snaps. Connect them and it will create a beautiful flowing effect! Which looks much better imo.
Your comment gave me so much joy
I also had a skirt like this! It was a brighter iridescent green and blue. I always wondered if it was a dress or skirt but wore it as a skirt. I gave it away years ago but still think of it from time to time. And now to read that it had snaps that I never knew of! If I still had it I’d be scrambling to find those snaps.
why can i tell from this comment that you're just a very beautiful person
Me every time you do anything: you’re doing amazing sweetie
The vibe of your videos is always so calm and soothing, love it!
I don't believe in mermaids that are half human, half fish - but there are definitely people who are really in tune with the ocean, the element of water, the tides and the moon.
Here’s a little tip for you on stains. Test an inconspicuous spot for color fastness of the garment first, but if you put Dawn dish soap and oven cleaner on the stain (the cheap dollar store kind works fine) you can get out a lot of stains even if they’ve been laundered before. Put it all over the stain and let it sit in a sink or plastic bag for an entire 24 hour period-do not put water on it. Launder like usual. Sometimes if the stain is particularly bad, you may have to repeat the oven cleaner and dish soap stain remover again if the stain didn’t full come out. Do not breathe the fumes from the oven cleaner because when you first spray it it’s quite bad. Either spray and jump away or wear a face mask while spraying oven cleaner.
This was a very calming video. Your voice is so beautiful. Also your editing is so good. I love it! 🖤
Aw thank you! 🥰💛
I love how organized you are and the amount of work you spend doing your videos make them so beautiful ❤
Thank you so much! That's very sweet to say 🥺
Do you know you’ve found your favorite type of aesthetic when you feel so happy and almost want to cry happy tears due to the comfort of it all? Is that what it means? No seriously I need help I think I’m in love 💀
I love thrift shopping! Totally agree about being strict, I often go overboard. All those shops had such neat stuff, loved the vid ❤ edit: I definitely plan on checking out that Nebula projector
Totally agree about going overboard haha 🖤✨
I had that green dress/skirt thing in yellow/black, green/black and orange/black like a decade ago. They were sold at Ross as multiuse dress/skirts 🙃 I loved them.
yellow and black sounds sooo cute!
I had one in lilac and wore it as a skirt
I lub your style, I’m addicted to watching thrift videos but 95% of any I watch are completely different style wise from what I generally wear. Your whole vibe and stuff is a lot closer to my thing though which is niceeee
i love your videos, i binge watched them for the past few days and they're just perfect! And you're so sweet 😊
I also had a lilac version of that green skirt/dress. I was sure it was meant to be a strapless dress, but I wore it as a skirt because I did it my way 😁
Nice choices! The hip huggers make me so nostalgic for the 90s. They look great on you like that!
u are like in an ancient age, vintage things, it is amazing
Or by god his videos are so cool and how everything is so picturesque and dark academy style
Karen Scott is a store brand for the Hecht Company (That was the name here in Maryland, anyway). Hecht’s was on the higher end side of the market, but not as far up as Macy’s, if that makes sense. I loved Karen Scott stuff because it reminded me so much of the Liz Claiborne styles from back in the 80’s-yes, I’m that old. LOL. The Rider’s are probably from Lee Jeans. The Calvins are probably women’s jeans. They were also huge back in the 70’s and 80’s-Brooke Shields was in an ad that caused a scandal because she said ‘Nothing comes between me and my Calvins’. A little fashion history for you hahaha.
Rewatching videos because they are just THAT BEAUTIFUL! 🤎 🧡
omg I was watching the shopping and I instantly recognized everything since I pass by downtown everyday! I will have to take a look since I LOVE this aesthetic! :)
The skirt or dress green fairy outfit looks amazingggg as a dress!! It’s so lovely 🧚🏾🧚🏾
Your videos are so calming!
All of your videos,tips and fashion sense inspire me a lot
To me you're the coolest person on earth haha thanks for keeping up with the videos because they highlight my day and are very fun :)
You're precious! Love your room decor btw 🌿🌼
The skirt is so dreamy!!
Ahhh i love the vibes very aesthetics!🍂☁️❤
you had such great finds to enhance ur wardrobe 🖤
fun to watch- thanks for sharing- love that cream skirt
For the dress/skirt, you can see if there is a side tag near the bottom! Most of them identify the clothing. Or, on the top of it, if there are those ribbon/plastic straps for extra hanging support. it's a dress! If nothing is there then I am sorry been there before, normally would just switch it back and forth.
I love your style! And your hair in this video is so nice, I'd love tutorials on hairstyles :)
I love all of your videos. Always so enjoyable and soothing.
Thank you for watching 🥰
Your channel is so under rated, i love it
In love with this video, gives me such autmn and halloween vibes!!!
Love that! Thank you 🤎🍂
You are really easy to listen to. I cant be done with a lot of the dark and light academia people. Maybe its because we share the witchy vibe but youre much more like the way I was at your age than any of these other girls on here. Love what you got!

Good luck on your finals! I’m glad my video could help you feel peaceful 🥰
@@vedacorvus Thank you so much!
hello! I am a videographer and I was wondering what is the lamp you have that’s glowing in the background? Its so perfect as a background practical light and I totally want to buy one!
amazing video! especially editing
Compass Rose is a doppelgänger to Patina in my home town of Mpls🙂
I have that "green tinkerbell" skirt, but in a black and gray. I've worn it as both a dress and a skirt and no, it doesn't make you look pregnant! 😂
What do you film & edit with? the quality looks so good, especially your skin! and I love the vintage filter. So good!
I film with the sony a7ii with the Tamron 28-75mm lens (which makes the footage look soo beautiful). And I use Final Cut Pro X 🖤
Alright my fellow witches, where does she live, and how do I move there?
Actually super curious about the cardigan yore wearing in the haul portion - where is it from?? So cuuute!!!
It's from Missguided online x
Where did you find the Jean adjuster? What a great gadget! Love your videos!
I think I got them on Amazon, and I searched something similar to “jean adjuster buckles” or something along those lines! I can’t find the exact link though.
What is the paint color in your bedroom??? J HAVE TO KNOW PLEASEEE
Dear Veda, you are my muse! If only you could film those sweet moments of inspiration more often... but I understand you - quality content takes time, indeed. Also, you are an autumn person, like myself, and this unbearable heat is not at all conductive to any kind of productivity. I hope you are feeling well... have in mind that many of us here are longing for your enchanted content. 🖤
Mermaids are real💖
Check for books at your Thrift Store
I’m 90% sure I know where this was! I think I live nearby!!
Your hair looks so beautiful, do you have any hair grow tips?
I only wash my hair once or twice a week and I also use a scalp massager when I shampoo! It helps to stimulate the hair follicles and I think it helps a lot. Also, thank you 🥰
I live in Olympia too lol and also a witch!
I love those shops as well!
Cute haul and mermaids definitely exist lol
cool video you have earned my sub!
Thank you 🥰
The 80s, we rolled everything in the 80s lol. The green dress, is called a tube dress
I'm not joking- can I buy the skirt and the green jumper off you?? They are literally what I've been trying to look for for so long. Let me know if you're down 😅🥺
I want the skirt she’s wearing with belts 😭 does anyone know the brand?
Mermaids are real!
Me wanting to dress in this aesthetic knowing I’ll never pull it off 🥲
I think you did awesome !!!❤️
Thank you 🖤✨
Where do you live? I need everything from the first two stores 😻
Western Washington 🖤
@@vedacorvus thanks. I was thinking Canada because Value Village is usually Savers in the US, but for some reason the North West is also Value Village.
I love psychic sister! I immediately recognized downtown oly 🖤
Where is this? Is it Toronto?
@@christinamann3640 Olympia Washington
what is the song playing in the background??
I added it to the description! x
@@vedacorvus thank you :)
Why wouldn't you want to follow with the faeries?😢
Love the style. And as an opinion, I think you should feel more confident with your thoughts. "I don't know" indicates you are uncertain, but really most of fashion is subjective. Own it! You don't need anyone else agreeing, it's your clothes.
Oh, you watch Leena's videos too! That makes me like you even more :D
She subscribed to me and I died 🥺 I’ve watched her for years, back when she was jsutkissmyfrog haha 💕
The reason little boy pants fit as high waisted pants for women is because they leave extra room in the crotch for boys and it ends up creating a high waisted look on adult women 😂 that was a trick my sister and I did in high school all the time! We bought boy jeans from Walmart/goodwill and turned them into high waisted shorts.
Could you share the music in the video please?
I added it to the description! x
@@vedacorvus thanks :)
First comment
Random but what is your sign?
Taurus ♉️
@@vedacorvus ur an earth sign🖤✨
Watching this only to realize that’s Olympia and I live down the street 😅
girl do you live in portland??? let be friends!!
Washington! For now. 🤎
Yes mermaids are real
What's your big 3?
Taurus sun, Aries moon, Leo rising 🖤
12:41 1000% believe they’re real. Above all the other mythical creatures
I've had sleeping problems and insomnia since I was a child and one of the things which makes me fall asleep calmly and fully is I kid you not, sex.😅Kinda tmi and of course it's not something I go around suggesting to anyone. There is some science behind it though and it's literally the only thing that works for me. Your voice is very calming and I love your vids and vibe.
If you have trouble sleeping you should try out ASMR, if you like dark academia I’d suggest the channel Vox Artifex! Love her vibe.
mermaids are real, we call them orcas & dolphins
