ONE
WOMAN’S
TRASH...
Fashionista shares her
free-box finds
WORDS BY AMELIA HART
PHOTOGRAPHY BY TRASK BEDORTHA
he streets of Eugene are filled with
treasures: free boxes overflowing,
Dumpsters unlocked and waiting to be
searched, all of it yours for the taking.
All you need is a good eye, a little bit
of imagination and maybe some rubber gloves. All
of these clothes were found in free boxes around
Eugene and have been dressed up with shoes and
accessories from my collection.
T
BLUE AND WHITE POLKA DOT DRESS
This super cute dress was missing a button and needed a good wash.
Sewing on a button is a mandatory life skill that a lot of people lack.
You can find some serious treasures that only need one little, tiny fix.
FOUND: in a free pile on 8th & Van Buren
BELT: Deluxe, $10
HAIR BOW: goodstuffonly.etsy.com, $6
SHOES: Frye, $150
