Scroll & Shop: Best Instagram Shops to Score Vintage Pieces
In its heyday, Tumblr showed me how valuable thrifting could be. However, as a teenager growing up in suburban Arizona, I found it difficult to relate to other teenagers thrifting the most unique items at Goodwill when I seemed to always run into tattered flannels and dusty cowboy boots. As thrifting has become even trendier, I am eternally grateful for all of the online thrifting options that have popped up over the years. While everyone knows about apps such as Depop and Poshmark, there are some vintage gems on Instagram too. Here is a guide to shops that I love to browse for amazing pieces or inspiration!
