Recycle Chic

My dear friend Andy Yu coined the phrase, Recycle Chic. Meaning that what was once old is new again. In the effort of sustainability, I have really been trying to shop vintage, esp for accessories. Don’t get me wrong I love a chic handbag more than the next person but due to crazy price increases and all the waste fast fashion has brought to our landfills and environment, I have given Vintage a really serious consideration and I almost never want to go back. One of my absolute go-to’s is The Real Real. Shopping online is my guilty pleasure but I do love stopping in the store as well. There are some great locations on Greenwich Ave, Worth Ave, and Madison Ave though I have to admit the best deals are online and they usually give you a great discount on most items. Plus loyal readers, if you visit the Greenwich store ask for Mariella and tell her I sent you. I think you will be pleased!!!!! Here are some of my top picks from the newest arrivals at the Real Real….

From left to right starting at the top

I love the look of a single pearl drop necklace. The silk cord is so chic.

This necklace is fab. It’s a diamond strand on a cord and the price is beyond amazing.

You can never go wrong with Hermes bangles.

And another enamel Hermes bangle

How cool is this Hermes straw hat?

Love a YSL clutch and esp in Silver

How can you resist this LV locket bangle set?

The new trend is a slim card case to replace a bulky wallet…This Chanel number is perfection.

A LV weekender is such a dream piece.

I’m obsessed with these Carolina Herrera earrings.

Tom Ford sunglasses are still the most coveted

Who doesn’t have a cool Marni summer bag on their wish list?

These Todd’s are giving me Hermes vibes.

Nothing cooler and more classic than a top flap Fendi bag

I just fell in love with this chic necklace
