CHLOÉ 'Heloise' Leather Hobo Bag $1,595

This is all just so, so good in the best possible ‘Rhoda’ way. I can remember my mother dressing like this; quintessential ’70′s chic. Of course it was the seventies, and I have such fond memories of her looking exceptionally young and beautiful, in oxblood colored Aigner knee boots with silk bow neck dresses, her hair in a shiny chignon. Maybe if one of us had had the foresight to save some of that stuff (yeah right – I was like ten), I wouldn’t be coveting these quite so voraciously in the 2000′s…live and learn. In the meantime, I’ll continue to scour the thrift stores for something comparable, and long for the day that these go on sale – as if they’d be reasonable even then. Whatev – a girl can dream.

‘Covet Shop’ Online Consignment Boutique

Covet Shop

Well it’s about time! Although I love doing so, I’ve been combing through thrift and consignment stores for years, hunting for treasures at rock bottom prices. Enter Covet Shop (brought to you courtesy of Ideeli), an exclusive online consignment boutique offering novices and savvy fashionistas alike, designer merchandise at a steal – minus the tedious quest through your local Salvation Army. Not only have they already done the foraging, they specialize in women’s designer apparel and accessories to the tune of Chloé, Prada, Balenciaga, and Zac Posen, to name a few. Each piece is hand-selected based upon style, season, and condition, all with a 100% guarantee. Better still? If you’re in the New York City area and have items that you’d like to consign, you can call or send them an e mail, and they’ll come to you to evaluate and pick up your items, making it even easier to earn your 60% of the final selling price. In addition to the obvious reduce/reuse/recycle theme? I think the entire premise is a win/win for all involved; Now if they only had an L.A. branch…

(Contact Covet Shop at 212.228.0648 or consign@covetshop.com for an appointment.)
