Second Nature Boutique

As a consignee, a total disappointment.
Brand new, designer items did not sell and half of them went «missing.»

Second Nature Boutique is a family owned designer resale fashion store for women. They carry quality, to new and used designer merchandise at low-​end prices.
They have everything from casual wear to haute/​vintage couture. I noticed that they carry shoes, costume jewelry, watches, accessories, clothes and more by brands like Prada, Michael Kors, Gucci, Moschino, Chanel, Dior etc.
Their merchandise is not organized as I would like and the store itself needed some dusting, vacuuming and perhaps some new carpets? It was a bit grungy in there and personally, I thought a lot of the stuff there looks really used. Also, this is not the best place for petite woman to shop for clothes as most of the clothing is size medium and up.
They have new selections of merchandise coming each day to their store, so there is always something new coming in that one may be interested in.

I am conflicted about this review b/​c while the quality of the merchandise is outstanding and you get to find some beautiful purses, blazers, etc, the lady in charge of the till (and I am assuming she is the owner) is snooty and does not acknowledge you unless you are as tanned and pressed as she is.
Also, the amount of dust and mold in the store is too much to handle for someone who has allergies.
Maybe one of these days, I will muster the courage (or up my claritin dosis, whichever comes first) and inquire on the Gucci bags and try on a blazer, and how knows, maybe even buy something*.
*Prices for the designer brands can start around $ 150 and go up to $ 500 (or more).

This place is a hidden gem and where I do majority of my shopping. You wouldn’t believe the pieces I’ve nabbed for $ 10 a pop! .let’s see… never-​worn silver Oscar della Renta heels, a Kate Spade pochette (only required a new zipper for a couple of bucks), a black military jacket, aqua Banana Republic purse… ok I could go on. I’ve almost given up on retail– why pay full-​price when you can buy better-​quality items for the same price or less! I’ve bought several things with the tags still on and paid 50% off the retail price.
Second Nature has been around for over 30 years for good reason. Soon you’ll too be bragging non-​stop about the insane bargains you’ll find!

If you love couture fashion, have a fabulous fashion sense but don’t want to pay a fortune.. .2^nd Nature is the place to be.
They’ve been in business for 34 years so they know exactly what they’re looking for when taking in items and have a great selection at all times, as a result!
If you are interested in selling them your women’s clothing, the boutique expect’s all incoming items to arrive dry cleaned and on a hanger.
The store is located on 3 levels with sales upstairs, as well as hand bags, stunning shoes and boots, gowns, caocktail dresses and more.
The main floor has new arrivals and tonnes of designer brands from around the globel; Gucci, Chanel, Prada and on and on. Some items cost hundreds of dollars but are a fraction of the regular price and sometimes, hot off the runway.
This floor also has a great collection of designer hand bags, shoes and jewellery, the most exclusive of which are always located at the front counter, where you may ask to see them!
2^nd Nature really is a gem, I would give the store a perfect 5 except for the staff. Their customer service can be very good but it really depends who’s serving you and some store staff and clientelle alike can be rude. I think being surrounded by stunning Jimmy Cho’s all day might go to their heads a little bit– LOL
