We’re a bit competitive. And since our fellow e-bay bidders can’t take a little smack-messaging, our account has been suspended “indefinitely.”
Where’s a girl to get her vintage (re: second hand and thus closer to affordability) designer accessories? At newly launched constylement.com.
An offshoot of already-bookmarked stylefly.ca, this specialty site is Canada’s first online consignment boutique where we can buy and sell (30% fee) gently used handbags, wallets, watches, scarves and more. (Designer names include the usual suspects: Chanel, Balenciaga, Dior, Chloe, Hermes, etc.)
We spend a full morning clicking on the ivory YSL Muse Bag ($1,600) and an entire afternoon (it wasn’t our most productive workday) considering the bright yellow Louis Vuitton Epi Gobelins Backpack ($995). We’ll have to act fast though – our favourite coin purse already sold.
And for a small finder’s fee, the site’s creator Patricia Angyal will unite us with our dream bag (yes, she says she can find a Birkin).
Who needs an online auction when our favourite bag, is well…in the bag?
