Guest bio:
Rebecca Collins is a visually impaired thrifter, with a passion for shopping 80s pre-loved clothing and creating inspiration through her head-to-toe Instagram " Outfit of the Day '' stories. Bec started reselling on Poshmark through the pandemic - to clean out her wardrobe and create a side hustle after recuperating from major eye surgery - to today where Bec sells a curated 80s vintage collection at suburban markets, through Instagram and Facebook, and in selected vintage shops. Bec is looking to take her thrifting to the next level by working with the Blind and Low vision (BLV) community, to help educate and empower people that live with a visual disability, to help them understand that fashion is accessible for all.
