I discovered a gem of a shop called Blue Dream at 2121 Chartres St., a few steps from where the…read morehistoric New Orleans French Quarters begins. The shop is chocked full of quality vintage wear, such as women's and men's clothing, shoes, jewelry, eye glasses, purses, and carry bags. There are also specialty fragrance potions, local arts' ceramics, unusual knives, pipes, incense burner holders, and more.

I am a glutton for a good second hand shop and could easily have been lost for hours in this little treasure trove. Bargain Center is a magical maze of goodies and every surface and wall area is covered. Without a doubt there is something for EVERYONE and there were a lot of things for me lol. Tormented by the reality that my suitcase only had so much extra room in it for oddities, well-read paperbacks, and miniature paintings of Frida Kahlo, I had to go the less is more route. I went with the Frida Kahlo wall tile and it looks perfect, perched on my little shelf in my room. The staff woman was friendly and gently let us know that we couldn't bargain down our hand painted items, which we respected. I would love love love to go back for more. This time I'll come prepared with a little extra room in my luggage.

The Buffalo Exchange is a Great Place to find that vintage piece of wardrobe that you will give you…read morethat look you know you're going after. No matter what city you're in, you go into a Buffalo Exchange, and you feel like you've been in it before. This is because all of the locations are designed and laid out very much the same.

Meaning, whatever it is that they offer to their customers has been well examined. The people that work in this shop, are all super nice.

My heart was broken when I found the most beautiful beaded, silk skirt that simply didn't fit. Humbling experience but that's the way it goes sometimes.

How do I begin to sing praises in order to convey the fantasticness/fabulousness/ all the other…read moreRachel Zoe jargon conveying amazingness that is Swap? I will take a gander. Ultimately, Swap has singlehandedly eliminated my need to ever go to Lakeside Mall or Canal place, and has given me the wonderful ability of clicking delete when I get a sale notice from Banana or J. Crew because I know I can get the item at Swap in the same condition for less money. First, the owner, Michelle, is fabulous. It is like she has read every how to make your employees and people around you respect and love you book on the market. Or maybe it's innate for her. I don't know. Michelle is a genuinely kind person, who signs every single one of her business' emails with every single store associates name. In a world of faceless corporations, that means a considerable amount. Swap discounts items on a schedule. I know they do at 30 and 60 days, so you can take a gamble and watch an item if you are in love. Swap has only been open for a little over two years, and nearly half of my wardrobe went to be consigned there and the other half has been rejuvenated by it. My finds include Theory shirt dresses for 15 dollars, silk Club Monaco skirts for under 30, Coach wallets and wristlets, Tory Burch clutches for under 100, a Guess red peacoat that was Blair Waldorf worthy for under 70, banana republic silk tops, etc. How did this happen you say? Michelle opened her store in a section of town that has wealthier liberal arts schools literally 2,500 feet away (tulane and loyola) and is wedged in a wealthier part of new orleans. So, an influx of a revolving market with a disposable income. Brilliant! She works her butt off to get the word out about her store to New Orleans' ladies who lunch who then bring their garmets here. (Thankfully) There is no hipster ridiculous pretentiousness here (Im lookin' at you Buffalo Exchange) and they are always kind when you consign your items. I have never been treated anything but wonderfully by Michelle and her crew. If you are in the area, make a point to stop here. Honestly, I would work here for free if it were legal, but well, we both know there are labor laws. note: sign up for store emails because Swap loves coupons as much as you budget fashionistas do, and they also have an ebay edition of their store.

Nice display racks of like items-not those endless racks of clothing packed into spaces too small like other places. Tagged, clear pricing, fitting rooms and generally an inviting space to return to.

Yes, it was nice, heavy wood, but none of it looked like new or anything. Most of them were a restoration project. I don't want to buy a desk for $500 that has stains in all the drawers and is scuffed all over. I couldn't find any women's pants to try on whatsover for some reason.

Many items are new or gently used. I have purchased many blazers here for less than $7. I have seen clothes from Zara, Express, Gap, and others at a low price. Some items are 50% off the ticketed price if you go on a certain day. My only complaint is that they took out the fitting rooms; to avoid returning an item, I find a mirror and try it over my clothes.
