Youknow...I'm not even going to look at the other comments on here.
I studied Pedagogic Work, for three years. I know the cognitive behaviour, the reason this girl bullied is obvious.
By putting her down (by introducing the awesome Thriftshop as a punishment) you're A. ruining the thriftshop-option for her and B. you risk for her to get bullied, not because of the clothes, but because she's being bossed around by her mom.
If you, instead of making her even more insecure, HADN"T raised her as a fashionista in the first place, she wouldn't be a bully.
If you get her help for the problem she's compensating, than everything will be solved. Thriftshops have awesome clothes, it won't solve her 'fashionista'-problem there. Also, don't introduce it as a punishment, rather as a good solution for spending too much money on clothes.
THAT is my advice as a licensed Pedagogic Worker. Whether you think this works or not, this would've worked better.
