Thrify Thursday

Hey Ladies!!!
Sorry for the late post, Fashuvia has been very hectic today!! We will be personalizing our blog shortly and are getting everything in order.. so be expecting a lot more personal pictures. . we are so excited for this next milestone!!!

This Thursday we are focusing on the top five items to buy consignment!!!

For those of you who are unfamiliar with consignment, these shops sell gently used clothing and accessories, although they are typically more expensive than your average thrift store, they save you a lot of time by not having to sort through tons of junk to find a treasure!

1. Designer Bags: Designer bags never go out of style and can be found at consignment for a percentage of the price and a great vintage feel.

2. Cardigans: What better way to find an authentic "grandpa sweater," these are so chic when properly warn! pear with a dressy top, skinny jeans, and either flat boots, or flats, for an extra accessory, go for a nude/brown high wasted belt over the open sweater and top, don't be afraid to mix black and brown!!

3. Jewelry: Vintage Jewelry is the ULTIMATE statement piece!!

4. Belts: You can always find great belts at consignment, vintage and designer alike!!! Typically, these belts are high quality but do not have designer prices.

5. Jeans: Consignment jeans are so cheap that they are great to experiment with!! Grab some scissors, bleach, glue, and sequin, and go wild!! You can never mess up a pair of jeans when paired with a simple top and flats!! Whether they are men’s for the "boyfriend look" or skinny jeans, use your creativity and make a statement!!!
