Welcome to the promising world of vintage clothing!
Hello and welcome to my official first blog post! I am more than happy to first introduce myself shortly.
My name is Rosa, I am from the Netherlands and I am currently 21 years old, following a bachelor called Creative Business. I am the person behind this platform!
The initial reason why I decided to start this, is because I would like to share my interest into the secondhand fashion world. I used to always order fashion items online, the more the better is what I thought. But that changed, I got to the realisation that this is actually negatively affecting our environment. The oversaturated and mainstream fashion world is something you as an individual can change already a bit. I will explain more about this in detail later!
But, how does that sound? I believe it sounds great!
Before I am going to share all my knowledge and thoughts so far on vintage clothing, I will first shortly elaborate a bit on the underlying reasons.
Utvintageclothing is a platform that has recently been created here on Medium and on Instagram as well! https://www.instagram.com/ut_vintageclothing/
This platform has been created with the goal to positively influence the general perception of buying vintage clothing in shops. I will be sharing inspiration, advice and personal experiences — explaining how and why I have fallen in love with vintage shopping and clothing.
I would genuinely love to take you on my journey!
This platform has to become the spot where you as a fashion enthusiast can share similar values and come together with other people through reading this content. I would be happy to together create a community in which we can inspire each other and make our community grow as big as we can! My blog posts will be used for more extensive storytelling to entertain and inspire you as a reader.
I can promise you that you will find written word, videos and images here. My emphasis will lie on how vintage clothing items are the future, really emphasising as well that second-hand clothing is trendy, not boring or not popular, but making an individual unique instead.
But without you, this platform will not exist. I am actually so excited about getting this started. That is why I need your help! Dear reader, I would like to invite you to participate and join me in discussions on this platform. This is a great place to take shape of ideas and spark conversation and dynamic thinking. I am inviting you to bring your insight on my topic to the surface! Let’s talk and keep our conversations flowing by sharing your thoughts in the comments.
Let’s get started with getting to know each other a bit as well. I am more than interested in hearing your story! What is your name, where are you from and what is your current opinion on the vintage fashion world?
I cannot wait to meet all of you!
If I still have your attention by now and if you are interested in joining our community of truly fashion lovers with a high interest in positively affecting the environment, show some love and follow my page!
(By the way), I will be uploading on here for sure every Monday and Friday. Today was just an introduction, but right after this I am going to talk straight away about the history of vintage shopping trends, pros and cons and more!
I am already looking forward to seeing you again on my platform! In my next post, I will dig deeper into the extensive process of vintage clothing, from A to B.
