Definitions

A 'second-hand rose' refers to someone or something that is not new, but previously owned or used by someone else. The phrase is often used to describe a person who is accustomed to receiving or wearing hand-me-downs, or it can refer more generally to anything that is second-hand. The term gained popularity from the song 'Second Hand Rose,' which humorously describes a woman who always gets used items.
