I found a tip for thrift stores without a changing room. Wear thin leggings and a sleeveless shirt under your clothes. You can try on the clothes over them without having to get completely undressed.
I can't fathom trying on used clothes! I take things home and wash them. I even wash new clothes from regular stores. Who knows where it's been, how many hands have touched it, where it's been stored, how many other people have also tried it on, etc. I guess I am an easy person for clothes because I still wear the same size I did in high school. It's rare that I think something will fit me and it does not. But, yeah, no clothing is touching my body until it's washed!
A tape measure can help too!
What a good idea. It could work for ‘normal’ clothes shopping as well. Especially tops.

@@Yesica1993 Some people have a hard time finding clothes that fit just right. I just shower after thrifting and wash the clothes before I wear them. I'd be wasting a lot of money if I just bought things only to find out I couldn't wear them.
Vika I have more clothes than you can ever imagine. I was going to start my own shop online. If you want to tell me your sizes, I’ll mail you all kinds of clothes and shoes. I actually broke a walk-in closet. I have a great shopping eye and have more than you can imagine. My kids never ruined their clothes. Ever. I figure it’s a gift God gave me so I’m more than willing to share. I could mail to a PO Box in Georgia. I’m just a regular mom. Much love🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Such a sweet offer! If Victoria opens a P.O. Box she will get all kinds of stuff from her viewers…
@@EllenB703 that would be awesome. My children cannot have kids so I’ll never be a grandmother unless they’re fortunate enough to adopt! They’d be set for life. I used to be a stylist so it’s my thing for sure!
Don’t you need to train children to be careful of their clothes? I’m surprised that, Agatha physically ruins clothes, usually boys do roughhousing.
Have you checked out post prices at USPS? $$$$
@@lauralutz4538 my best friend grew up in the USSR. She never had new clothes until she moved to America. She had all hand me downs. Things are not made the same or have the same quality. Victoria is a minimalist so most likely Agatha wears through her clothes cause she doesn’t have a closet full like Americans. Let her be a kid. They’re both adorable. I’ve had a blessed life and I would not care to share with someone else and pay whatever postage. I know it’s very expensive. My bff still has family overseas. I offered and Victoria is the type that would never ask. There’s another Russian RUclipsrs we all showered with gifts when they had their baby. They were so grateful and such kind people like Victoria and Tolya. They left their home country and will never be able to return. Toylike would go to prison! We don’t understand what that’s like. We’ve never had war on the continental United States but we’re probably going to. A little kindness, thoughtfulness and thinking of others who haven’t had the same opportunities as us is the right and moral thing to do in my mind and heart. You can’t help where you were born. God loves us all.❤️
Very cute clothes for your girls❤ Kids grow out of clothes so quickly, no need to spend a fortune on expensive items, I agree.
Love your videos. Very sensible getting children's clothing from thrift stores. You have found some lovely pieces!
Im sorry youve had some not so nice comments on thrifting for little ones. People complaining about cleanliness, may never have seen online pictures of garment factories where new clothes are made. You are making wise decisions for your little family.
Sorry those lovely dresses were the wrong size for you, they were very nice indeed.
Love & prayers from Australia.
Hema is a great typical Dutch store! ❤ They have stores in some other European countries too. I loved seeing your thrift shops and your haul!!
Good finds for the girls! Fun to see thrift shops there. Day in the life videos are great to see the local culture. Thank you!
Praying for you and your family in these difficult times. Thank you for your family friendly content.
Great haul. Textile waste is one of this worlds biggest environmental problems, so it's smart to reuse as much as we can.
Hi Vica. Thrifting for children's clothes makes so much sense. A few good pieces for church but the rest they just play (rip or stain) in. Prayers for you always.
No it doesn't, who knows who wore those clothes just🤢
@@Lilly-hh9es I buy bags, purses, belts, household glassware, Pictures and Jewellery. That's it from 2nd hand shops. Personally, I just couldn't dress myself , or my family , in someone else's old clothes ( especially shoes 🤮🤢) I enjoy searching for the pieces I love and supporting the shop. I do appreciate that people love Charity shops, or just can't afford to buy new pieces, and that's good, too. I'm guessing Victoria (?) can't afford new clothes. Just found her Vlogs today, and I really am enjoying binge watching them all
@@jacqueline8559Victoria is a minimalist and I think she appreciates the environmentally friendly part of thrift shopping. So many clothes are the result of sweatshops and cheaply made clothes. It's sad that people find wearing used clothes more gross than people making clothes for pennies while manufacturers get rich
@@Lilly-hh9esYou're a disgusting judgmental person.
You got the right idea, going thrifting for children's clothes. I used to do the same thing when my kids were little, and it evolved into getting some of our adult clothes there as well. We also would get toys and books second hand. Nowadays it's actually the trendy thing to do. Saving money and keeping stuff from going to landfills. 👍
Your such a wonderful person. Wise beyond your years!! I love watching your family. ❤❤❤❤
HEMA is a big store with quality stuff in the Netherlands 👍
We have some second hand stores with no real changing room, so I started wearing a tank top and leggings so I can put things on over them without actually undressing. It's not as easy as normal try-ons but I feel more comfortable than either no try-on or semi-undressing in less than private conditions.
That was interesting and observational. Here in the UK our second hand clothes shops are called 'charity' shops, which is not the best name for those using them. Much better to use the term 'Thrift' because that imparts the label of a person with good sense using them.
Our charity shops really don't benefit us much these days in the uk as ours where I am are just as expensive as new on so many things,it's ridiculous.
I enjoyed that and I can’t believe your younger daughter is walking already! Your daughters are beautiful, just like their mom!
Ahaha the makeshift dressing room in that one shop! "You need a dressing room? I'll make you a dressing room," *proceeds to slide a clothes rack in front of you*
Glad to see your hair grown back...You have such beautiful hair and it compliments your face...You are looking healthy....
Always enjoy your videos...
I really like her hair this length also. Such a pretty girl.
Our secondhand thrift stores in the states have become ridiculously expensive. So we really need to search to find items at a good price. You found a nice haul.
Its all about money.
Yes!
Same down here in
New Zealand!
We call them op shops.
It is ridiculous!
Sometimes cheaper buying
clothes brand new.😂
In indiana, at GW, a shirt is 8.99 😳. Ridiculous.
FYI it costs too much to ship, way too much. Better to sell it on line and give her some cash.
It's the same in Poland now, used fast fashion items can cost as much as new clothes. :/ You really need to look for deals.
I love that you went shopping for you and came back with kids clothes! I do the same thing! 😂 I also buy my kids clothes from the thrift store or get them hand-me-down clothes from friends because my boys are so rough with clothes. I like the Janice from FRIENDS vibe you have for your girls 😊
The one fabric you didnt know.. is called a waffle knit fabric ❤ but Im canadian and we have several funny names for it. Thermal wear, and long johns just to name a couple 😂 but the one you bought is so cute
I used to thrift shop for my Adeline (she's older than you)! And would always wonder: Who were the magic children who wore these clothes and didn't spill their breakfast, lunch and dinner down the front of them. I wear aprons now when I eat at home! It never stops.
Find some winter shirts you like and add the links to your description box. I'll buy you one and I'm sure other viewers would as well. You inspire us all, with everything going on in the world and you raising your children in A different country because of it. ❤
That's so very kind of you.. I've just found this Channel, today, and have been binge watching. I'll happily buy a blouse or Jumper ( American sweater 😂😂)
In the states, I have found the best thrift clothing and furniture stores are those that give the money from sales to handicapped Veterans. I think we can all relate to helping out Veteran’s and I’m happy to donate there as well.
The mauve, flowered pants for Adaline, we call "thermal" here in the US, and they are typically worn under jeans as an extra layer, but nowadays they make thermal tops that can be worn alone, or in a child's case, just pants to be worn around the house.
They look like corduroy pants.
Thanks so much for taking us thrifting with you, Vika. I always enjoy seeing the local scenery. You got some nice finds for the girls. Wishing you success finding things for yourself and Tolya on your next trip out. Prayers for you and your family and loved ones always. 💖
Thank you for taking us all " thrifting " with you. It was so much fun. ❤
Mine is a teen now, but this brought back such fond memories for me. I hope your next trip out you find something special for yourself as well. Much love to your sweet family and I hope you all stay plenty warm this winter.
The clothes are so cute! You did a great job finding the best pieces for your daughters! :)
Great video as always❤️ I love those hectic streets of Tbilisi so much😌
Wow, that onesie from ''Hema'', that's a Dutch department store! It reached all the way from the Netherlands to Georgia!😁
And so funny that Hema romper ended up in Georgia. Hema is a Dutch department store and many parents say those rompers are the best and really good quality.
THANK YOU for sharing your life with us! As a dedicated thrifter it's great to know there are others on the hunt!
Love this kind of videos! I really like your positive attitude even though you didn’t find anything for yourself, as they say: Another day another dollar!
The "royal blue" color dress that you considered looks so nice with your complexion
Vika! Thank you for taking us along with you on the thrifting adventure. Much love to you all!
This channel has kept me going for like a year and a half. Thank you❤️
Oh I love thrifting and this was a good therapy to see you go shopping and going through already loved clothes.😍❤️ Regarding the quality of clothes, I was once discussing secondhand clothes with my friend who's a sewer lady and she told me very good thing about it. That those clothes are even better than the ones in stores, because they were already washed multiple (many) times before, so the quality and state of the fabric is already "shown" when you buy it. It's not a surprise as if the clothes were new, you come home, wash then and they fall apart. As you see thrifted clothes in the shop, that's how the fabric quality and stretch is going to look like when you wash it, it's a done and honest deal. 😊 if that makes sense. English is not my first language
All the clothes were super cute fit the girls. Also loved the vibes in that funky thrift store lol
"Janice from Friends vibes". 😄 Love it!!
Your thrift store hauls are great fun, please more of them.
Thrift stores and even outlet stores in the US are getting expensive except for Goodwill. I can always find better bargains online lately. You found some really great buys. I liked the dresses. I totally agree with thrifting kids clothes. They grow so fast and can be very hard on the wear and tear.
I like thrift and consignment shops. Thrift seems better because they’ve a lot more items than just clothes.😊
It feels like you are a friend to go thrifting with 😊 I also dislike those stores where you have to really dig into the stuff, just not inviting 😅 cheers from Finland!
Ooh I’m excited, Vika! So great to see a new video! I’m having a somewhat crummy day so this will cheer me up. Much love to you, your lovely little ladies to your awesome husband! And love that ultra sweet new kitty!! You have adorable fur babies! How are the rats? Much line from the Great Lakes US 🩷❤️🧡💛💚
You found some lovely and cozy items for your girls. I enjoyed seeing the thrift shops. Thanks. :)
Love the cute things you got for the children. I hope you'll soon find nice things for yourself and your husband. I love going thrifting very much myself
Those dresses you held up were really cute! Kids grow out of clothes so fast, we have stores here that are discount stores and you can find inexpensive clothes for kids that are new, we also have thrift stores but sometimes they charge more than discount stores! You did good on your finds!
You found some gorgeous pieces! Zara, Polo, H&M! Amazing! I love your red Starter sweater too! Hard work but worth it, eh? Great video I really enjoyed it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤ love from Maryland, USA 🇺🇸
"...and the cat..." hahaha! I LOVE the "Janice" sweater! I'm sure Agatha loves it already :)
Super cute clothing. My son and his wife are having a baby girl any day now and I can hardly wait to get them more than I already have. I raised 2 boys and we have far more boys in our family than girls so I know I’ll have fun.
all the patterns make me so happy 😀 thanks
This was interesting. I saw a lot of cool "edgy" shoes and boots. The items you picked are so cute. 🥰🇺🇸
I am also just a regular person so I really enjoy seeing your regular life too. I love thrift stores! If I can ever come to Russia i will visit yours too.
My kids are grown-ups now, but I raise them in mostly secondhand clothing. I still buy almost everything I wear from secondhand shops as well. You cannot beat the prices. 14:12 14:15
Hi! So you already got a lot of comments about the onesie from the HEMA wich is indeed a dutch departement store. But RETOUR is also a dutch brand! It is a children clothing brand who are especcialy famous for their jeans. ❤️🇳🇱
Thank u for showing us around
You have such a great range of clothes to choose from,in the uk 🇬🇧 the prices is getting very high and quite often close to the price of new clothes 😢you have found some lovely clothes for the girls,take care of yourself and your lovely family ❤❤
Always enjoy a video from you. I love thrifting.
Wow, great, stylish clothing at fantastic prices! Those are my favorite kind of stores to shop in and I could spend several hours shopping without breaking my budget!😅
If kids clothes are cotton (or other natural material) and they’re stained, you can dye them to bit darker or brighter color and stains will not be visible at all:) that’s what I do with my clothes - I dye them and they become as good as new. Also do this to clothes that I won’t keep, just so they can be used longer by someone else instead of going to landfill.
I do this, either to change the colour or, very often, I'll redye black clothes 'Black' again. They can quickly look a bit washed out but this makes them as good as new. Just done this with 3 white tee shirts (I realised I don't suit white anymore) so they're beautiful and black. And 4 pairs of my sons shorts, which I'll now put away until next year. As good as new
Victoria! , Thank you very much!
Nice to see you, enjoy shopping
Loved seeing what the thrift stores were like - thank you for taking us along!
Great video! Thanks for taking us along. You found some good things!
That was fun! I liked seeing around the town.
I screamed and cried and laughed all at the same time when seeing this poor creature on the wall as "decor"!! I´m horrified!! 😱
@mjmomo541, right!? Greetings from Poland and my channel 😊 and countryside 🏡🐕!
This was fun! Thanks! Good to see you again!
Thanks for the tour. Nice choices for the girls. Very well priced.
How is it going with learning the Georgian alphabet?
You made some really great choices! So cute!
So good to see you again, I always enjoy your videos!
Love your thrifting videos always!
Hi there, Kefir is also popular drink in Poland. It is fermented milk and it is good for better digestion. I usually buy it during the hot summer days.
Love these outfits ❤
You found a lot of cute clothes for your kids. Over here we don't have as many thrift stores unfortunately but we have flea markets and there is an online shop where I usually buy used clothes but you can search on it for used clothes that are still in good condition or nearly new. A lot of my favorite clothes are actually second hand 😊
Thank you for your content. Love from NYC👋❤️❤️❤️
I bought my son a 90,s vintage jacket for Christmas 3 years ago like that! Expensive
I love your choices for the children!
Good to see you.
Love the sweater for Agatha!!!!
Thank you Vika for this nice tour around these very interesting secondhand shops. I am glad that you could find some beautiful clothes for your kids!! Wow Adeline has started walking. I must say that these clothes are really fantastic with beautiful colours and above all warm! Next time you will certainly find nice clothes for you and Toyla.
Thrifting is my favorite thing to do 🥰 Hope you’re enjoying your new apartment
I really enjoyed this video and seeing all the different thrift shops in your city. The leopard/purple sweater for Agatha was adorable 🥰
Your expression in that not-changing room ! Yeh! I agree
You have such good taste! You inspire me for a lot of things! And indeed my oldest one always comes home with holes in her clothes 😅 thank you for sharing! So much fun! Love and light from a family in Bulgaria! Btw Hema is a Dutch brand.
Hema is a shop in Holland. Good quality
That was a fun tour.
The dresses were so cute!
❤ going thrifting with you!
Great job, I went thrifting yesterday for the cold weather too, have a great day!
omg those items are sooo cute!!
Wow, such great thrift stores!! We have several here--they are well-organized but not cheap. However, they have sales every day based on the color of the price tag (like orange tags are 50% off today, etc.). I like getting kitchen things there too, especially pots and pans, which can be really expensive when you buy them new. Thanks for posting!!
My new favorite RUclips family! Love that your so down to earth. Beautiful family.
You found such good quality items!
Love going thrift stores.
Love from Canada ❤❤❤❤
I love that city!
Love the thrifting vlogs
Really fun video, thrifting is always a fun adventure! In American English I would call the one pair of children’s pants w flowers a waffle material.
Wow those are beautiful! That brown dress with the black dots, I have one just like it! The kids are getting so big! You found some gems! 😀❤️
Love seeing this. LOVE the blue velvet dress. You really suit red so I hope you find something red! In New Zealand Children’s thrift clothes are very cheap but adult thrift clothes are getting way too expensive
