Dear Reader,
Let’s start with a quote, plucked from “Wild Geese” by Mary Oliver, a favorite of mine since high school (even if it was recommended by the worst english teacher I’ve ever had)!
“whoever you are, no matter how lonely, the world offers itself to your imagination, calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting - over and over announcing your place in the family of things.”
Basically: no matter who you are, when you go out into the world? you belong baby! memories are waiting to be made IRL…first dates, trips to the library, dancing with friends in a sticky-floored bar, whatever you want. Just get out into the world & be cool to every creature you share it with. But, dear reader, why should this rambling on a random website (hopefully) matter to you? Well, I’ll attempt to keep it short & sweet. I’ve been thrifting for as long as I can remember & clothes have always held a certain kind of steadfast magic for me. How can they not? Clothes can give you the confidence to show up as you want to be. We make memories in our clothes. And we should all be out there in the world, making more memories with people we love while we can. Preferably in a killer outfit. So, I’m opening Wild Geese Goods. In the hopes of providing a different kind of vintage & second-hand shopping experience, one that offers:
inclusive sizing & clothing options for all genders
more accessible pricing (please don’t make me also quote Macklemore)
Fine! I’ll do it! In the words of Macklemore…
”$50 for a t-shirt, that’s just some ignorant bitch shit.” And dearest reader, here at Wild Geese Goods, I promise to never charge you $50 for a t-shirt. I just hope you’ll return to peruse what I’ve gathered once I can finally muster the energy to write comprehensive and accurate product descriptions for all these wonderful items! Maybe you’ll even find something to wear as you wander around the world making more memories.
Sincerely,
