Buyer's Picks - Summer 2015

If you've shopped or sold your items with us then you would definitely have met our buyer, Joanna. Hand selecting nearly all of the inventory in the store, she sees all of the amazing things that come through the doors here and then make their way into your closets! She's here to share her top 10 picks to snatch up this summer. 

1. Isabel Marant Heels

Isabel Marant is hands-down one of my favourite designers so it's not surprise that these bad boys made my list. Marant pieces always have that way of making you feel super effortlessly cool and so so chic. These are one's that you'll be able to have for a lifetime. 

2. Alexander Wang backpack

Can we take a second to appreciate this bag?? Thanks! That pebbled, super soft leather and perfect details signature to an Alexander Wang bag is certainly not lost on this beauty. If luxury and functionality had a baby this would probably be it.  

3. Golden Goose pyjama-style top

There's something about the pyjama trend in fashion that happened a few years ago that I just can't quite shake. What can I say, the luxury and easy of a silk pyjama top just get's my styling juices flowing. The colour and belt on this one make it especially versatile. 

4. Miu Miu Platforms 

If you're like me and really running with the whole 70's trend this year then these are sort of the perfect shoe to do so in. If you snatch these up I will also probabaly want to be your friend and accompany you to all the discos.

5. Rodarte x Opening Ceremony Skirt

It's pretty hard to top Rodarte but their collab with  Opening Ceremony a few years ago may have just made them that much cooler. This skirt has endless potential for me. I love the perfectly structured A-Line shape and slits that make this piece super modern and unique.  

6. Chanel cap toe short heels 

If you're going to get a Chanel shoe it's hard for me to imagine anything other than these as being the first pair you get. The epitome of Chanel, you can practically imagine Coco herself sporting them around Paris being the bad*** she was. 

7. Mulberry Clutch

This is the first Mulberry piece we have had in the store so it only seemed right that it made its way on to the list. A pouch for all the essentials and perfect for travel, I love the ease of this staple. 

8. Celine black and white colour block dress

How can a top ten list be complete without a little Celine?! It can't. Phoebe Philo has made her way into the hearts of just about anyone who loves fashion and it's clear why. Call it the ultimate man-repelling sensibility that let's us explore oversized dresses and jackets structured to the high heavens. Whatever the magic recipe is, I'm into it. 

9. Boy. Band of Outsiders Skirt

Let's be honest, there's probably nothing quite as versatile with a white skirt in the Summer. Pair this one with a cotton tank or a silk button down blouse for an easy work look and you're guaranteed a winner. I especially love the way this Boy Band of Outsiders one is cut to give that fullness but not too much so that it's overwhelming.

10. Dries van Noten black suede boots 

"Why won't you fit me?!" -  Something I proclaim every time I see these gorgeous suede booties done by none other than Dries van Noten. Wear them with a dress, jeans, shorts, skirt, casual, dressy, these are what black ankle boot dreams are made of.

You never stop amazing me Joanna. You were made to do this job. I think I might have told you that when I discovered Mine and Yours Consignment while walking to downtown from my hotel.
The next day I came back with my traveling buddy from Orange County. We spent hours there. Needless to say we had to refigure how to pack our suitcases and carry ons. We were quite creative!
Take care, Candace Pendergast
