Rachel Maksy's dark academia video: • 20 Dark Academia Outfi...
THRIFT SHOOOOOP! Over the past couple years I've been seriously cutting down my wardrobe so I haven't been back to the thrift stores very often. Oh how I have missed my Japanese thrift stores! But I recently found out about the Dark Academia ~aesthetic~ and I NEEDED to see if I could find some looks! Plus, it's so damn hot here in Japan and turns out most of my wardrobe is plastic (polyester, etc) which is like the worst thing you can wear since it's not breathable?? You learn something new every day. We managed to find quite a few things in my style made of breathable, cotton and linen fibers!

    IT'S MY FAVORITE PLACE IN THE WOOOOOOOORLD JAPANESE THRIFT STORES!! I was so excited to go back to the thrift store to try to scrounge up some new things (both in style and fabrics!) I'm very happy with how things ended up, though the applicability of "dark academia" to it all may be somewhat questionable.

I love this aesthetic!! Omg !! I saw the video of Rachel Masky with the egyptologist like yesterday :O .

    I love how thrift stores in Japan are so nice and clean. They actually look like normal stores and there are entire second hand chains (like second street, house off, book off ect.) they have good lighting making the stores look fancy too. In Germany there are thrift stores that either sell super expensive brand products or stores that make you feel like a charity case because they advertise towards people with lower incomes. When you go there it feels like you are stealing from those in need. German thrift stores really could learn from Japanese ones

    Went to a newer thrift store today in Germany, the focus wasn't on clothes though. The lighting made all the difference though and I actually felt like I could find something there and wasn't stealing from charity. Also, it didn't smell of mothballs, that also helped. I found a wooden rolling pin and a dress i liked, but I was like: I got enough dresses I never wear, so I didn't buy it. But yeah, the only other second hand/thrift store in Germany I liked was mad expensive brands. All the others are like mothball smell, bad lighting and "don't-shop-here-you-got-enough-money". I do wonder where all my "I bought that new, but wore like once because it's not actually and then donated" clothing went. I try not to do that anymore.

    I just recently started following Rachel Maksy a month ago or two ago so when I got the notification for an Dark Academia video I thought it was from her channel but instead read "Rachel & Jun" haha I was even thinking of recommending her channel to you, Rachel but see you are way ahead of the game already. Another channel you might like is Bernadette Banner, her style is more of the 1890s 1910 Edwardian style but her videos are so soothing and it's fascinating watching her create these Victorian/Edwardian clothes from scratch using sewing techniques they would've used in those times. EDIT: So you already know about Bernadette Banner, never mind lol

Absolutely winning today. :) Also, I’m completely with you on high waisted clothing. (Ridiculous how difficult they can be to find when crop tops are so popular.) PS I adore you switching to natural fibers. I’ve been switching to them lately, too, and have had the same experience where everything else feels bad now. And less sweat!
