plato's closet

somehow i never managed to step into a plato's closet store until this past fall. when some friends decided to take me, i realized what i was missing out on. plato's closet is basically a brand name consignment store. due to the current economic malaise, i have limited myself to only 2 shopping trips since. but, each time i find some really cute items at great prices. since its a chain of consignment shops, their website does not
have any items for sale. but, i do recommend checking out www.platoscloset.com to find a location near you. you can also sell items to them. they also have a card you get stamped for every $10 you spend. after 10 stamps, you save 20% on your next purchase.

my first shopping trip, i picked up these metallic blue flats by fioni for $4.

as well as 2 handbags.

last week, i picked up this black fauz snake skin oversized clutch which still had the original plastic on it for $6

and this yellow bubble gum necklace and earring set for $2.99.

i saw a hot pink pair of chinese laundry heels for $8 which i decided against only because i was trying to keep my damage low.
