The beautiful, boutique-like consignment shop Second Time Around (STA) is officially open in Chicago! Located on the lovely Armitage Avenue corridor (right across from Charlie Trotter's--delish), STA is set up like a fine clothing store, with prices that will make you grin from ear to ear.
Attending the grand opening tonight (akin to attending an after-party inside a really big walk-in closet), I was thrilled at how many people showed up. It proves that even in challenging times, we are still drawn to good style in fashion, and it doesn't have to cost a small fortune to look fab.
It also didn't hurt that Alex McCord, who is currently working with STA, attended the opening. (For those unfamiliar, Alex is featured in the Bravo series "The Real Housewives of New York," and she definitely knows her way around fashion. She is also very nice, and very willowy. The lady knows how to fit her frame!)Alex's presence, combined with delicious free food and drinks, made for a really celebratory mood, with guests scooping up their finds and purchasing on the spot! (The cash registers were "cha-chinging" in the background like a musical number)
If possible, make it a point to support STA. You will no be disappointed!
