Singer For Ruta Dūduma-Kirse the important thing is the sign you leave. That’s why she often shops at thrift stores. With a TV personality Kristini Garklava meet in the shop “Otrā elpa”.
Ruta says she has a trick to choosing these clothes correctly: you have to drop the bar, then you have to carefully examine and look at them one by one. Because when everything is in the “chupa”, you can’t see anything.
The singer says that, especially outside Riga, “pearls” are often found in these shops: “Out of a hundred shoes or a hundred bags, there is one waiting for you!”.
Kristine is interested in why Ruta visits such shops – is it because you really can find those “pearls” or is there something more?
“Probably more than that ‘pearl’. I have absolutely no complaints about used clothes. It’s like a used car, if you sell it and everything is in order. Likewise, the clothes – you can’t see that they’re used, they’re not torn, they’re not faded. Why don’t you buy it, take it home, wash it and wear it? And no one can tell where I bought this jacket, pants or bag! I found the best ones in this shop jeans , that I have ever had. And I bought them for 2 euros each,” shares Rūta’s experience.
