If you’re from the US or Canada, you’ve heard of the term bucket list. Unfortunately, no one knows when this term became a thing, though it derives from an 18th-century word referencing death – kick the bucket. It wasn’t until the 2007 movie The Bucket List that we became more familiar with this new phrase.  

Definition of bucket list

According to Dictionary, a bucket list is:

“A list of things a person wants to achieve or experience before reaching a certain age or dying.”

It sounds morbid, mainly for a midlife person. We don’t want to think of the end of life in our prime. I believe midlife is a stage where we should enjoy vitality and do things we missed in our 20s and 30s.

Nobody appreciates a fresh-off-the-runway red carpet moment more than I do, but I get particularly excited when celebs choose to do the opposite and wear vintage pieces instead. Breathing new life into past-season garments is not only sustainable but incredibly chic. This is something celebrity stylist Mimi Cuttrell certainly knows a thing or two about, as she recently partnered with Depop because of her passion for vintage fashion. 

“There are so many unique pieces out there—designer and non-designer—that deserve to be repurposed into modern-day wardrobes,” Cuttrell told Who What Wear. “Depop has such a wide variety of sellers, shops, and pieces that (with some intense searching at times) can elevate anyone’s closet. What resonated with me most about the company is that buying second-hand is more sustainable and environmentally friendly.” Cuttrell also elaborated on exactly how she uses the platform when dressing her clients. “I source items from Depop by
