Meet DeAndria Owens of SNOB•ISH Thrift Boutique

Today we’d like to introduce you to DeAndria Owens.

Hi DeAndria, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself
Over the years, thrifting became a huge hobby for me! I loved sharing with other women my great finds from thrifting. When complimented on my outfit, my favorite response is “thanks it’s thrifted.” I had been praying and seeking guidance to pursue something that I enjoy and that can become a business.

After brainstorming, I knew I really enjoyed thrifting but I wasn’t sure how it could become a business. I remembered how I would often meet women who would share that they would love to thrift, but it took too much time. I decided to do the thrifting for them by offering one of my services SNOB•ISH Surprise. This provides women with an opportunity to have the convenience of getting second-hand items that are selected to fit their style.

My goal is to help women who have a small budget have access to clothes that are quality and by well-known brands for an affordable price. I’m a “bougie thrifter” so all of the items at SNOB•ISH are in great condition.

I know that SNOB•ISH was an idea given to me by God and I’m forever grateful. I have been building my business mostly through social media. I post helpful tips for thrifting, styling hacks, quality items secondhand items that are for sale and reels for a good laugh. So appreciative that I’m able to have a platform where I can share my passion for thrifting with others.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
After God gave me the idea of starting SNOB•ISH, doubt began to creep in. Thoughts of “will people like the items I select,” “will I be able to build a community on social media?” and “do you even know where to start?” I began to overanalyze the vision I was given to the point that I almost didn’t start. I decided that even though I may not know how it will all work, I’m just going to put one foot in front of the other. That’s been my approach since then and things have been working out.

Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
SNOB•ISH is not your ordinary thrift boutique. SNOB•ISH items stand out because they are quality, stylish, in great condition and super cute! I’m a bougie thrifter so I only Thrift the best. I have brands from Michael Kors, BCBG, Coach, J Crew and more.

I also offer styling services through my service SNOB•ISH Surprise. You can either have me shop with you where I will assist in selecting items for you and provide tips for thrifting or I can do it all for you.

SNOB•ISH also has a community of Thrift Snobs who enjoy thrifting and share the good deals they have found on the Instagram and Facebook platform. You will find several tips on thrifting, styling hacks, secondhand items for sell and information on deals at local thrift stores in Atlanta.
