How To Score Your Dream Designer Bag (And More!) On A Budget

Photos by Jenn Camp // Louis Vuitton bag c/o The Real Real

After seeing the amazing designer goodies that Jayne Min of Stop It Right Now has scored from The Real Real, I knew I had to check it out myself. Low and behold, I spotted the exact Sofia Coppola for Louis Vuitton SC bag I've been lusting over, and even recently shared on Instagram, at a fraction of the original cost. That's the beauty of this site—You can find a great selection of pre-owned, authentic designer pieces that you either missed out on in the past, or are currently coveting, but may be a bit outside your budget. They also have a streamlined consignment service that's a great way to sell designer items from your own closet, since you can ship your items in for free or have them come to your home and pick them up. Either way, prepare to get lost and addicted to hunting down those special finds! Below are some of my top picks...
