How I Saved $1,765 Shopping Consignment

Many people stray away from consignment shopping because they think they can’t take the time to look through racks of clothes or would rather buy something unworned. I totally understand that logic. However, not all consignment stores are filled to the brim with clothes. I find brand new pieces all the time and even as a self identified germaphobe, wearing worn clothing after a run through the wash is completely clean and even eco-friendly. Shopping consignment is something I’m really passionate about so today, I am sharing some of my favorite consignment store shopping finds to hopefully motivate you to shop consignment and vintage stores!
