I'm a fan of Magnolia Pearl, though I only buy a piece a year. I don't see this as "poverty chic," and I certainly am not afraid to talk to homeless people (it's part of my job). Some of my MP pieces are getting worn, and I've discovered the joy of visible mending. Mending blends right in with the aesthetic, and I want to wear these pieces for many years.

Thank you for sharing! I love this mindset, especially being excited to mend your pieces.
