Feel Fresh Fridays: Crochet

This is clearly one of those trends that withstands the test of time...nothing says summertime chic like crochet - and it is so simple to wear.  Although it feels heavier, the semi-sheer fabric allows for the cool breeze to float through to your skin while keeping you covered up at the same time.

Try a crocheted pullover with shorts for an effortlessly sexy look.

this season's shoe trends at last season's prices...

I can't tell you how many times I have explained our store to someone and their response is, "oh that's like shopping for last year's styles" or "oh, you mean like the Goodwill?"  I cringe on the inside...smile on the outside...and kindly explain to them that while we are a resale store, we only select things that are in-style and on-trend with current fashions.  We scour blogs and magazines about what's hot right now and our buyers are trained in selecting only items which fall into these trends.

Understanding that you can still get this season's fashions for a fraction of the cost seems to be the biggest obstacle for people to overcome while they are contemplating shopping in a resale or consignment store.

As far as women's shoes are concerned...the hottest trends right now are glitter, menswear, bold color, leopard, and as always for the fall/winter, boots! (wedge boots and booties to be exact, and we have exactly what you are looking for) 

Here are some items in the store now...

 And, when I tell you we have the best selection of boots and booties around...

 I mean it...

Ralph Lauren, Nine West, Salvatore Ferragamo, Frye, UGG Leather, Blowfish, Steve Madden, Jessica Simpson, Sherling, Aerosoles...you name it, we've got you covered.  Don't miss out!!
