Bargain Shopper? Try an online Consignment shop!

I consider myself a true bargain shopper. I love getting the rush that comes with finding an awesome item for much less than retail. Part of my bargain shopping interest include looking at gently used or preowned clothing, an outlet to find some seriously marked down goodies. 

Recently, when I was online shopping I tried to find some good deals on my favorite brands like Lilly Pulitzer. Thats when I found some of my favorite online consignment shops.

Thred Up buys consignment kids and womens clothing, shoes, and accessories. They are very picky and only select the best selection of clothing to put on  their webstore. The result is a wonderful site with some really great deals! To log on just click here.

Ebay is probably my most viewed site on my internet history. I prefer to be a buyer on the site than a seller but ebay facilitates some great transactions on both sides. Its the largest of the sites I am reccomending and listings are added the most often. It is a little harder to manuever to find great deals but once you get the hang of it you can end up with amazing steals!

Threadflip is a recently launched website that has a boutique like feel but is a community marketplace. It is so easy to buy and sell on this site but I feel that because its a community marketplace the prices arent quite as low as thredup.  

Have you bought or sold items to any of these online consignment shops? What do you think of buying items preowned?

Friday Fancies: May Flowers!

Good morning Y'all! I am loving the beautiful weather, its starting to feel like summer!

This week's Friday Fancies theme was May Flowers. Although I love floral and often wear it, I decided that I wouldn't put flowers into my look. Instead I mixed the pink lilly dress with stunning navy wedges. This summer I am loving daring color combos like the pink and navy! The gingham pattern is very on trend and I love the "tulip" design of the dress. Very fitting for a May flowers theme!

What are you loving for summer?

Lilly Pulitzer Summer 2013

Lilly Pulitzer unveiled its Summer 2013 catalog today and I wanted to share some of my favorite looks.

Dionne Dress

The Dionne dress retails for $168 and is a cotton dress. The waist of the skirt portion is elastic and the pattern even glows in the dark!

Wakely Top

The Wakely top is just your standard tube top for $68 with a little ruffle by the chest. I am loving this rich print in Turquoise Lets Cha Cha!

Capricia Dress

I love the classic shift cut of the Capricia dress. The lace overlay makes this dress modern as well as the contrasting hem. 

Shiloh Dress

I am obsessed with the green patterned lace on the Shiloh Dress. The detailing on the top is so intricate and beautiful and I have never seen such Lilly do a lace print before!

Do you have any favorites from the new summer 2013 Lilly collection?

Review:: Rovis & The Bean Monogrammed Otterbox

Happy Friday! I have a very special review today. About two months ago I bought an iPhone 5 after months of wrestling with my droid. I couldnt be happier! When it came down to finding the perfect case for my new iPhone I turned to Rovis & The Bean.

Rovis & The Bean is one of my favorite monogrammed shops on the internet. Started by the wonderful Lauren Rosenfeldt, the site not only caters to monogram lovers like myself but also to working moms who just want to spoil their kids! 

Behold! My new Rovis & The Bean Monogrammed Otterbox case:

The quality of the otterbox is amazing. Rovis & The Bean shipped very fast for a customized product and I could not be happier with the monogram design. 

It was so hard to choose which monogram style I wanted. The store features over 75 different styles, each which can be customized in so many ways. The possibilities are endless! Before deciding on my chevron style I was choosing between these gorgeous cases:

The otterbox cases sell for $59 which I think is more than a fair case for not only the superb otterbox quality but the amazing monograms that Rovis & The Bean provides. These make excellent gifts and I have recieved so many compliments on my case to date. Since I use my iPhone all day every day it is really important to me to find a good case to display it in. The otterbox from Rovis & The Bean is perfect!

Besides selling these amazing cases Rovis & The Bean has some truly to die for products!

Have you checked out Rovis & The Bean? If not, what are you waiting for! Comment below with your favorite item from their website!
