Clothe Yourself in Designer Labels from Ina
There are two ways a person may be dealing with stress of the recession--eating and shopping. We've been covering our favorite Recession Restaurants and now we're looking at some spots for Recession Shopping.
If you've got style-conscious friends who suddenly find themselves without a steady paycheck or you're finding yourself without one and still need to dress to impress at the holiday soirees approaching, head to Ina in NY. With SoHo, Nolita and UES locations, Ina's the ultimate in consignment shops and a perfect place to spend your precious pennies in the current economy.
Forget your common consignment/thrift shop beliefs (ie. "there's usually nothing decent left by the time I get there," or "this looks like an old Limited top and is not a designer label,") and enter Ina. The clothes and accessories are authentic designer labels, hand-selected and in near-perfect condition.
Items like Gucci black suede peep toe pumps, a brown Lanvin "Hero" bag, Hermes cuffs and a Dries Van Noten double breasted leather jacket are within your reach. Prices are fairly discounted and from time to time they do special sales and further discounts too (hint: sign up for the Ina mailing list).
The UES shop is tiny, but very clean with good lighting and friendly staff. Another thing we love is that the clothes are treated with respect, not crowded onto racks, like other consignment shops.
