Bonnet is one of the haute trash pickers. With a full-time job, fashion-design school on the weekends and a highly discerning sense of aesthetics, she's not interested in stuff for stuff's sake. "I don't see that much stuff I like on the streets," she says. "But then again, I don't see much I like in the stores, either."
