Repeat Boutique Consignment

Inspired by Paris Haute Couture week I decided to go outside of my comfort zone and delve into the world of consignment shops. I know it sounds silly but if you've read my blog before you might remember my best find so far was a lovely shirt I found at Ross for 49 cents! 



I didn't know what to expect as I tentatively entered Repeat Boutique In Encinitas. I must say I was pleasantly surprised! A beautiful shop with an amazing array of clothing and accessories at many prices. They do carry upscale designer, I saw a Chanel jacket but couldn't bring myself to look at the price (someday I will own one) and there was a sale rack at the back that had items for 50% off. I could have bought a beautiful skirt but decided I didn't really need it (looking back I should have gotten it, don't you hate that?)




It is a family run shop with very personal service. They will come to your house if you have a lot of items you want to consign and if you are looking for a special piece they will call you when they get one in. If you don't live in the area they also have an online store and 
the people are so nice!

Here is the treasure I purchased: a beautifully, beaded and embroidered top (if I was younger it could be a dress) perfectly on trend for spring, by Burning Torch $29.99. 
I checked the Burning Torch website and their beaded tops average around $400.00 
so I will definitely be back!


Here is the link to their website:
