Imagine someone admiring your outfit so much that you end up swapping clothes with them. Sounds like the stuff of movies, right?
Well, for Rebekah (@bekahmull), this became a reality that touched many hearts when she posted a video on TikTok. The video went viral, garnering over 974,000 views and 240,000 Likes.
Rebekah shared, “A stranger stopped me and asked where I got my shirt since she’d never seen one like it. The shirt was so adored that I had to swap it. This will always be one of my best memories.”
The video captures Rebekah and her new friend discussing their extraordinary encounter.
Rebekah shared, “I thrifted that shirt years ago, and it’s one of my favorites.” Quameiha, the stranger, revealed, “I also have Haitian descent. I saw you in that stunning Haitian shirt, and I just had to approach you.”
The shirt Rebekah wore featured an image of two people in Haitian Creole greeting one another.
In a fun twist, they exchanged their shirts by tossing them over opposite bathroom stalls at each other.
After the swap, Quameiha hugged Rebekah, saying, “I’m so glad I met you today.” Rebekah sported her AC/DC shirt, while Quameiha rocked the Creole tee, both looking fabulous.
@bekahmull The woman stopped me, and she asked about my shirt. It was the first time she had seen one of these in her own language. She loved it so much, and seeing her light up as she explained what the shirt meant… I knew we had to swap. It will forever be a favorite memory.
