Consignment Shops = High FASHION
So you love Marc Jacobs but can't quite afford his new collection, L.A.M.B. makes you want to sing out load but a discount on it wold be nice; so what you gonna do? THINK outside the BOX. The mall is a great place to people watch and if you got a high-end mall its a great place to see whats new. But the place to find hot and unique items are at consignment shops.
Here fashion lovers are bringing their last seasons and selling them off at super discounted prices. Most fashionista's know that a good thrift or consignment shop are the hidden jems of the fashion world. Trend setters find pieces that they bring back to life and a season later the box stores are selling to you in mass quantity.
So are you IN or OUT of the box? Hit up your local Consign shop and for-cast the trends rather then follow. Pick up a vintage Chanel or retro Ray-bans and take to the streets like your on fire.
Check below and go shop!!!

"Bookmarc"
Looks like the West Village has a new " book" shop. Marc Jacobs has opened up his 6th store in the west village selling art books, art work and book shop nick-nacks. I'm a big fan of Marc and art so I hope this store won't disappoint. I know that many in the west village may not be happy with this new addition to an all ready trendy/residential area but its NYC what more do I need to say.
Give it a try and see if you like :) Art and literature is everywhere now only a little more trendy and wickedly fashionable.
Love XOXO

What I want this Fall!!!!
I am in love with the Classic Q Francesca Hobo bag by Marc Jacobs. Its huge and will fit everything I need diapers and lipstick!!! The Dark brown is amazing but the gray is super chic. Although I would love the big bag in the royal blue too, think Marc might make it for me? lol
