  Hello, my name is Andria! I am an Adventure Seeker & Conscious Thrifter. I love being outdoors just as much as I love a good vintage Jean jacket or flowy maxi dress 🤗 I discovered Curtsy on IG and immediately was drawn to the simplicity & quality of their app! I already actively sold clothing to my local thrift stores and thought this was a great way to offer my previously loved pieces to more used clothes enthusiasts! So far it’s been a great experience!
• What do you love about the Curtsy Community?
  I love being apart of this community of badass, conscious women, with wicked fashion taste 😝 I highly recommend joining and having fun discovering all the fun ways you can style and list your items! 
• Is there anything in particular you are using/saving up your Curtsy Earnings for?
  I'm looking to become more of a minimalist and hope to stock my clothes with only things I love. I’ve been eying and adding many things to my “liked” list which I plan to use some of my Curtsy earnings on!
• What is your top seller tip?
  I personally enjoy using a lot of natural light if I can for close up shots of my items, and also use a photo app called Pixelcut to edit my images. Hope my tips help your reselling journey!

  Hi everyone! My name is Katie and I’m a communications major studying at James Madison University. A fun fact about me is I love dogs, so much so I got a job working at a dog daycare.
• What do you love about the Curtsy Community?
  I love online shopping, and Curtsy makes that easy and affordable! I first heard about Curtsy from a friend at college and since then I’ve bought and sold so many clothes. One of my favorite features about Curtsy is the ability to control your prices on clothes you sell, and making offers to sellers on their clothes.
• Is there anything in particular you are using/saving up your Curtsy Earnings for?
  I’ve made a couple hundred dollars selling my clothes and it’s gone to buying from Curtsy and paying for some school items.
• What is your top seller tip?
  A seller tip I would suggest is to be communicative with potential buyers. Good communication will increase the likelihood of the item being bought and the buyer coming back for more items!
