The pandemic took 2020 by storm and quite honestly I never imagined my entire lifestyle would be abruptly halted to the extent that it was. Pre-quarantine I was visiting the thrift shops once a week, spending hours sifting through racks and seeing what treasures could be found. Now like many of us, I do worry about shopping again and while I am very careful, I try to be in and out of a store in a limited amount of time. As you know, this doesn’t always work with thrift!
I recently heard out about a new service launched in early July 2020, called Twice New by WINS, a national online thrift service that offers individually curated boxes full of stylish items shipped directly to Canadian customers. They currently offer four box categories – Get to Work, Jeans &, Date Night and Casual Friday. Their online ordering system is very simple, simply choose what category you would like and select a size (from Extra Small to Plus!) While I couldn’t decide which one I should choose I finally decided on Date Night as the description offered more of the styles I would be searching for such as rompers, dresses, skirts and tops.
