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!

Moving on to my outfit details… I bought this top at a local Dallas boutique, Esther Penn, and I did my best to find it online. Of course I couldn’t, so I tagged similar products. You can’t avoid ruffles this season, so why not go big, even if it does look like I’m about to fly away. These jeans are the ULTIMATE flare, and they are on sale! Get my look by shopping the links above.

Sometimes I wish I grew up in the ’70s, so I could wear flare jeans everyday and not get weird looks. My neighbor once asked me if I was going to a disco when I walked out of the house. No, just dinner, but I appreciate your enthusiasm.
You can get my jeans for a steal, so get ’em while you can!!!
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!

Who watched the solar eclipse last week? It’s amazing what God’s creation can do.
I just purchased this blouse at Zara, of course, and I love these jeans I got a couple of summers ago in London. They hold their shape well and the color is perfection. Definitely worth the investment!
Thanks for stopping by Sanford Standard!
This Friday I’m talking about my favorite jeans and why!
First, is the J Brand Maria. This jean has been a favorite of mine for years. I love it because it is a high rise and a true skinny. The jean comes down a little past the ankle, so it is the perfect length for a cuff.
Next, I love the Citizens of Humanity Rocket skinny. They suck you in in all the right places! I have a distressed gray pair, and they are perfect for all seasons!
Zara is a great place to get trendy denim. I have the best distressed boy friend jeans that I got last spring. I’ve dressed them up with strappy heels and worn them casually with Adidas tennies.
The Stella McCartney Flare jean is the ultimate flare! I love this color for spring and summer, but it also pairs nicely with a black chunky sweater in the winter.
OMG. Let me tell you about the Citizens of Humanity Wide Leg Crop… They feel like pajamas. They are the comfiest pair of jeans I own and go with everything!
I go for the high rise every time because they not only fit my waist but my booty too. I hope I inspired your next denim purchase!
I’m so into this sneaker trend! Prada and Stella McCartney are killing it, but there are also less expensive options. These shoes will take you through all four seasons, so they are worth the investment. Today, I wore these sneaks with ripped jeans and a sweater, but they would also look great with a sweater dress or a leather skirt. If you aren’t following this trend, you should be.

I’m still obsessed with these flares and wear them every chance I get! Stella McCartney without a doubt does them best, but Jbrand, Hudson and 7s have great options too.

Flares and Fireworks are my kind of Independence Day, so let’s show some pride for our great nation with some blue and white. The flares are back, and I’m oh so into it. Even though my brother told me I am 4 decades too late, I am beyond excited to have these pants on the blog today. The top I’m wearing is not available anymore, so I gave you lots of options! Happy 4th!
