SHOP CONSIGNMENT FOR A LOOK THAT SETS YOU APART

A lot of people are surprised to learn that one of my favorite places to shop is the local consignment shop. Hailing from a small city, I was unable to find many stores that carried designer labels outside of the typical mall brands.

However, when i stared to check out the local Unclaimed Baggage Store, Salvation Army, and Goodwill, i couldn't believe that i was coming across brands like Lanvin, Christian Dior, and Yves Saint Laurent for unimaginable prices (how's .99 for a Lanvin tie?).
The designer labels aren't the only thing i like about shopping consignment. Often, i run across unique pieces (like this corded vest i'm wearing above) that are back in trend.

If you are looking to spruce up your wardrobe explore your local vintage or consignment shop and before you know it, you'll start building a collection that sets you apart from the crowd no matter your location.
