Melanie Moradi (@moradimanor) has amassed nearly 19,000 followers on TikTok, where she shares glimpses into her life.
She looked in good spirits as she revealed the items she bought during a recent shopping trip.
“The L.A. thrift is over,” she said.
“I’m sorry to tell you, but seriously, I was born and raised in LA and after spending in New York City, I will never save in LA again.
“I went to a thrift store called Beacon’s Closet in Brooklyn and I found the craziest things.”
Melanie said she found a pair of SSense pants that originally cost $625 for $60.
She bought a three-piece set from For Love & Lemons for $50, despite the top itself previously costing $167.
She decided not to go through with buying a tinsel Edie Parker bag since the thrift store was selling it for $85 and it is $100 brand new.
The fashionista confessed that one item stood out to her among all the others as she browsed the shelves.
“This is the gem of what I found,” she said.
‘This vintage cherry bra from Dolce and Gabbana for $55.
“I’m obsessed, I’m going to be buried in this bra.
“I can’t tell you how happy I am with this find.”
The same Dolce and Gabbana bra is on sale The doll for $140.
The brand took inspiration from the vintage design for their new collection of cherry print satin bras, which cost $445.
Melanie also bought a beaded bag that didn’t have a brand tag but was vintage.

“They had really cool stuff, like Nike in good condition, for only $22,” she said.

“They had a Ganni dress and beautiful vintage panties, it was so beautiful.
“I couldn’t believe the finds.
“My girlfriend found this incredible LA bomber. Everywhere I look it’s $100 now.
“And this Helmut Lang messenger bag for just $50, and boy, it listed for $400, like what.”
Melanie also bought Nanushka slippers for $50, which were worth $320, and a vintage Victoria’s Secret slip dress for $10.
