As a new blogger of all things thrift related, I have a lot to learn. Reading up on other thrift blogs helps to expand my own knowledge of second-hand shopping. One blogger I have found and enjoyed keeping up with is Dina’s Days. She is a true thrifter who has been sharing her finds and tips with the world since 2009. However, I love the fact that Dina’s blogs are not specifically thrifting content. She blogs about lifestyle, motherhood, and has a podcast as well. We all love and support a woman of many talents and interests!
Dina’s Days has a series called 12 Months of Thrifting where she pays particular attention to a specific aspect of clothing each month. This March, she is focusing on adding a dash of embroidery to the pieces she finds. I think this is a really unique and fun idea because some people may never have thought of embroideries to be something to look for in thrifted articles. Additionally, Dina does not only talk about her thrift finds with us, but she also goes over how to wear and incorporate them into your own personal style. Along with her blogs, the images she adds on to her posts are very aesthetically pleasing to look at, and the bright colors make the details of every item pop off of the screen.
Dina has obviously been on the thrifting scene for quite some time, and is known by many people because of it. From print magazines to television debuts, she is highly recognized for her passion for second-hand shopping. It is a fact that I love Goodwill stores and that it is my go to thrifting location. Dina has received many awards in regards to Goodwill, and she is an amazing contributor to the company as well. I respect Dina’s Days for not only sharing and educating others about the art of thrifting, but also for doing more to spread the message of how fun and beneficial it is. During your leisure time, feel free to look up Dina’s Days and enjoy the fabulous quality content she has posted for us.
