Y’all know I love to shop consignment because it’s a great way to score a deal on a designer item. If you’re in the market for a new bag or wallet, you’re in luck! All of these pieces are consigned, guaranteed authentic and up for grabs!
Happy Friday and happy shopping!
*This is a post I created awhile back but never posted! Some of these bags are still available! If sold, a similar option will populate!

Introducing your new favorite shirt line… drumroll please… Click here to discover Harshman’s beautiful blouses! This isn’t your average button down either. The rust colored stripes and the pleated collar are a unique combo, AND this blouse is made in the US. I can’t wait to layer sweaters on top – if it ever cools off, that is.
I have to say I was feeling quite put together and tailored in this outfit yesterday, but those feelings were squashed when I met Henry for lunch in his office building. The place was bustling with men in suits and women in pencil skirts and block heels. What a different world I live in at FDF! I’m thankful for the freedom and creativity I get to have when getting dressed in the morning.

Speaking of furry friends, my fam spontaneously adopted a sweet little pup, Ellie, about a week ago, and I’ve been taking care of her here in Dallas. My oh my, she was a lot of work, very cute, had sweet puppy breath, but a lot of work.
I get to resume my normal routine, including blogging, as of today because my parents took her Tennessee. Ellie gets to live with her big brother Winston, chew on lots of toys and run around our backyard. I don’t think she’s going to miss my apartment bathroom, but I hope she misses me.
Today I’ve found some of 2017’s hottest handbags below retail price. How you ask? Well, there is a site called The Real Real which sells amazing consignment pieces from vintage to new with tags.
The bags I chose have been lightly used, maybe carried only a handful of times. You can tell they were taken care of by the photos shown on the website.
Gucci GG Marmont Matelassé Shoulder Bag
This bag retails around $1700, and you can get it for $1595. I love the stitching of this bag, and the color can be carried all seasons. Don’t be afraid to wear white after Labor Day!
Fendi Kan Whipstitch Shoulder Bag
This bag retails for $2200, but The Real Real is selling it for $1495. Fendi is all the rage right now, and I can’t stay away from the bold colors they are using.
Stella McCartney Falabella Box Bird Shoulder Bag
The bird bag is selling for $1465 in store but $995 on The Real Real. Don’t you love the embroidery?
Chloe Appliqué Drew Crossbody Bag
This Chloe bag has been around for the last couple of seasons, but I love the addition of the flowers. It will pair nicely with winter whites or a chunky burgundy sweater. It retails for $2625 but you can get it for $1276.
Gucci Medium Nymphaea Bamboo Top Handle Bag
This classic Gucci bamboo sells for $2390, but you can get it for $1895. This bag may be a favorite of this season, but it will never go out of style. A great investment piece.
You may think of the original LV monogram when you think of Louis Vuitton, but darling little crossbody is a great addition to your wardrobe. It is selling for $2600 verse $3550 retail.
Gucci GG Supreme Blooms Small Dionysus Bag
This bag has definitely been the golden ticket of 2017. You really can’t go wrong with Gucci though. Get this bag $355 off retail at $1995.
Chanel Small Carry Chic Flap Bag
Chanel might not be realistic for most of us, but I thought I would include this beauty anyway. It’s $200 off on The Real Real.
Valentino Tricolor Leather Shoulder Bag
I love the color blocking on this bag! Get it for $717, almost $1000 off.
Fendi Embellished Double Micro Baguette
This bag is all yours for $1125. The multicolor medallions keep the bag whimsical while the black backside keeps it transitional.
As you can tell, I love crossbodies. They make a statement while keeping your hands free. I hope you all enjoyed the 2017 handbag roundup!

First, let me start off by saying that everyone MUST try the new cookie popsicles at Steel City Pops – my life is now changed after the brownie and chocolate combo. Moving on to more important things, I am obsessed with these espadrilles. After receiving them as a gift, I’ve walked through Fall, Winter, Spring, and will carry them into Summer. I love this casual look and will definitely be sporting this while studying in London.
