There is a wide selection and I think there was an interior designer there looking at vintage furniture the day I visited.

I definitely would like to come back here when I have more time. A lot of the stuff was pricey but there were also booths that were offering sales.

Let's begin with product availability. The menswear section is great for those of us that can turn menswear pieces into fashionable pieces for women. Then move around to women's pieces. We have high end to low end pieces at reasonable prices. Purses and handbag heaven. The next time you're putting that special outfit together, come to D'Trespa Consignment to get that statement bag to take the outfit over the top. There's just som many gems being housed here.

The shop owner shared a few things; Bring your items in and if sold, you can receive cash or if not sold the will donate to a charitable organization on your behalf and you receive the charity receipt for tax purposes. She also informed us that the first Saturdays of every month until October, the street will be shut down for an open market. Come by during those times and you could possibly win a prize. Can't wait to come back. Great shop to find those designer pieces you've been wanting.

For men, there is a bit of that Birmingham preppy (Brooks Brothers, Polo, Vintage Vines) and some downright vintage. I bought a 1970's JC Penney LS shirt and some other men's items. There is not a huge men's selection, but for women, there's a lot more - purses, dresses, iconic looks and "create your own style." She's even got a "little black dress" room and was updating to add a bunch more dresses. What I like best is that the selection is unique. This is a boutique, not so much just T's and jeans, but items to look your best or find your own fashion way. For my lady I bought a Michael Kors and a Ralph Lauren handbag - but I left some for you dear reader. So, go check it out!
