I am a luxury lover. This should surprise no one.

But I am also a huge fan of saving $$ when possible and, you know, saving the planet while still doing my favorite pastime: shopping.

It’s true that the most sustainable clothing is the clothing you already own, but let’s not be unreasonable here — enter: pre-owned luxury goods.

I would say at least half of my purse collection is pre-owned and/or vintage. I also have secondhand shoes and clothing.

I think sourcing secondhand pieces is incredibly chic. You can experiment with trends without having the exact same item as everyone else.

The people with the coolest styles mix the old with the new. Great style is always about balance. And a good way to bring in balance is through pre-owned and vintage pieces.

It’s a vibe and a half.
