Glancing Girl here …

Every once in awhile, we’ll have a client looking in our shops for something “vintage.”

It’s a good opportunity for us to explain that we’re not a vintage or thrift shop.
The merchandise we carry has been manufactured within the last 2 years, is in near-perfect condition, and has been hand-chosen for the particular season and aesthetic our shops are representing.

Resale is no longer what it was – it’s not about shopping for a Halloween costume or a vintage dress for a Man Men party.
{although the silhouette is very now and you can certainly find something recently manufactured in our shops}

Resale has evolved into the socially and ecologically responsible way to engage in the world of fashion.

It’s the way I revolve my closet every season, and I wouldn’t dream of shopping any other way.

Back to the vintage discussion …

Every once in awhile, a client brings in a gem that we can’t consign but purchase for display purposes because of its incredible verve.

That’s how we met this little number:

Isn’t it fabulous?

{and isn’t Erin fabulous in it?}
