High End Pre Owned Clothing

By Joyce Butler


Do you have a Big Box Store budget but designer tastes? Selling high end pre owned clothing is big business today. People sell their own things on Amazon and EBay. Millions donate even designer clothes to charity outlets. Thrift shops are operated in every town. Online consignment shops are thriving.

There is good reason that these retail outlets are popular. People love the uncertainty of this kind of shopping. Instead of knowing what you'll see, you're constantly being surprised. When looking for summer dresses, you might find the perfect Fendi boots. When what you need are beige pumps to match a suit, you walk out of the store with Rockport or Bass sandals.

Of course, if you're browsing online, you can pinpoint what you need in the search tab and go right to it. Amazon and EBay are great resources, with pictures and all the details, as well as ratings for the seller and guarantees that any item will be as advertised. Online consignment shops are legion, and you will be sure to find a few favorites to keep up with. Shopping from home whenever you have a few free minutes is one of the great things about the computer age.

One of the great advantages of visiting local consignment or charity shops is that you can find better quality clothing than you might see in neighborhood stores. If you have Eddie Bauer tastes and only Faded Glory outlets, visit the thrift shops. People seem to donate a lot of Talbot, Land's End, Ralph Lauren, and other great leisure clothes that feel so good, fit so nicely, and wear so well.

One of the major extravagances in a woman's life is a wedding dress. People routinely spend hundreds, and for designer brands or custom designed gowns the tab can be like a down payment on a home. However, there are shops and online sites that specialize in consigned dresses. These gowns are worn once, cleaned, and guaranteed to be flawless. They might have been worn in Hollywood or Washington, DC, by someone whose name - or her father's name - is familiar.

Maybe you love fashion magazines and exclusive catalogs but never order something from them for full price. If you then find it at a not-new shop or on an auction site, it's a real thrill. Perhaps it's a pair of Jimmy Choos or a Talbot cashmere sweater in your favorite shade. Maybe it's those jeans you have been craving, or a workout suit that makes you feel svelte already.

Fine garments are works of art. It's a shame to let them hang unappreciated in someone's closet, scorned as 'last year's stuff'. It's best when they offer another round of pleasure, while raising money for a good cause or keeping another small business going and growing. This is really people helping people and well worth doing.

Sometimes buying a designer brand when the world is starving feels wrong (but, of course, the industry needs buyers as well as creators). However, you can shop in the not new category without guilt. You can have a budget and keep to it, all the while enjoying the best in casual or formal wear.
