These are my new boots. They kick so much ass, Chuck Norris even struggles to keep up. They were a beautiful find, and proof that patience in consignment fashion is the most important of virtues. That, and trying on a ridiculous amount “Nope” until that magical Cinderella moment. And when they cost only $38, are recycled, and arrive just in time for a 1st of December covered in snow…well, that’s consignment alchemy.

I recently found a great BCBG dress at a consignment shop and 2 Anne Taylor Loft camisoles. I payed $1 for each piece. I still can’t get over it! Great boots!
