TheLostSock 的核心理念，是将一度被视为毫无价值、无人问津的物品，
怀揣希望与爱，赋予其全新用途与崭新起点。

无论某件物品多么丑陋、过时或破旧，
总存在某种方式可加以利用……关键只在于我们如何看待它。

上帝的眼目能于万物中看见美，因万物皆由祂所造。
万物皆为特定目的而被创造。有时我们之所以迷失自身使命，
不过是因为我们暂时忘却了祂。

若将这一理念投射至时尚领域，
我便会走进那些人们丢弃、遗弃衣物的地方——
那些他们再也穿不了、本不该买下、甚至宁死也不愿穿上身的衣物，
只为替它们寻得新生。

破洞可以缝补，污渍可以清除，异味可以洗净，
只要我们睁开双眼，看见种种可能，一切皆可焕然一新。

感谢我的爸爸妈妈教会我购衣时精打细算。
当年Guess牛仔裤风靡所有“酷 kids”之际，爸爸却坚决不给我买。
妈妈则常拽着我钻进一家家“臭烘烘的店”（这是我跟我姐姐给它们起的绰号），
在垃圾堆般的衣山衣海中淘寻珍宝。

彼时，我只觉他们在毁掉我的人生，或让我颜面尽失；
但今天我才真正明白……
他们才是所有“酷 kids”中最酷的！
只是当年的我太过短视，未能看清罢了。



梅茜身穿二手日式束腰上衣；我身穿粉红色灯芯绒夹克、真皮腰带（均为二手），搭配及膝裙与Minnatonka流苏靴（来自鼎力支持我的丈夫的圣诞礼物）。

因此，我们必须戴上玫瑰色眼镜，一头扎进废品堆里，
于昔日陈旧之物中发掘崭新之美。

开心淘旧吧！

TheLostSock is all about taking what was considered worthless and unwanted at one time

and with hope and love, giving it a new purpose and fresh start.

No matter how ugly, out of style, or ragged something is,

there is some way of using it... is is just in the way we see it.

God has eyes that see beauty in everything, because everything was created by Him.

Everything was made for some purpose. Sometimes we lose understanding of what our purpose is, simply because we have lost sight of Him.

If I relate this concept to fashion,

then I would go into places where people have dumped and abandoned clothes they

couldn't wear anymore, shouldn't have ever purchased, or wouldn't be caught dead in

to find a new purpose for them.

Holes can be stitched, stains can be removed, stink can be cleaned,

and things can be renewed if you open your eyes to the possibilities.

I thank my Mom and Dad for giving me the smarts to save money when buying clothes.

My dad refused to buy me Guess Jeans when they were the coolest to all the cool.

My mom dragged me into "stinky stores" (that's what me and my big sister called them)

to find treasures among the trash.

Back then they seemed to be ruining my life or embarrasing me totally,

but today I know the truth...

they were the coolest of all the cool!

I was just too blind to see it.

SO, we must put on our rose glasses and go dig in the rumble to

find newness in what was once old.

Have Fun Thrifting!
