Consignment

My Best Friend’s Closet

Looking for designer duds without the sticker shock? Pick up gently-used clothing and accessories from brands like 7 For All Mankind, Dolce & Gabbana, Coach, Ellie Tahari, and more. Or, sell your stuff. If you’re not located near the shop but still want to get your hands on some designer brands, there are other alternatives you can take. For example, you can go online and find things like this Louis Vuitton Replica that looks almost as realistic as the actual thing. However, if you can find a way to get to the shop, it’s definitely worth a look around. The shop is dedicated to pricing items so they turn a profit but are still marketable to buyers. Check out the seller’s contract online for the run-down. Tracy Mbfctracy.com
