  location /blogs {

      ...

      location ~ ^/blogs/([^/]+) {
         ...
      }
  }

But your example config is completely broken. Probably you do not understand how 
"location" works. If so, you should read these articles:

 http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/request_processing.html
 http://nginx.org/r/location


> location ^~ /blogs/$blogname {

Variables are not allowed here.
