👗 Start with a Statement Piece
Begin with one eye-catching item—like a bold blouse, a designer skirt, or a patterned dress. Consignment racks are often full of unique, gently-worn statement pieces that cost a fraction of their original price. Once you find your “star of the show,” you can build the rest of your outfit around it.
Tip: Look for quality fabrics and well-known labels—pieces that will last and elevate your look.
Tip: Head to The Annex for last-chance treasures that might be priced even lower—but still make a big impact.
