I love discovering new ways to find the best designer clothes and accessories on the market – and sometimes the best finds aren’t in retail stores. As an online shopping addict, you can imagine my excitement to discover ShopHers – it’s the only online marketplace dedicated exclusively to pre-owned designer fashion. The site lists thousands of 100% guaranteed authentic pieces (Celine, Chanel, Prada, you name it!) at discounted prices straight from the VIP closets of the fashion elite.

ShopHers invited me to come check out their enormous showroom, and I hardly knew where to start. I spent a fun afternoon perusing racks and racks of gorgeous designer dresses, shoes and purses and decided on this beautiful peacock-inspired McQueen dress for the shoot. I paired it with Gucci sandals (the gold ankle strap is even prettier in person) and a bright Celine clutch (which was brand new and several hundred dollars less than you’d find in a flagship store).

In addition to buying from the site, you can also sell!  I love the idea of parting with the pieces in my closet I’ve never worn or only used once – why keep them when you get organized and buy new pieces? You can create an account and make your own profile with your sizes and favorite designer preferences, and the site will match you with other “Style Soulmates”  to help you find clothes you love that will fit. They also have a VIP service where you can send in your clothes and ShopHers will photograph and list them for you – super easy.

I’m excited to partner with ShopHers and offer you all $50 in site credit for the first 24 hours after you register on the site. Check out the beautiful pieces and let me know what you like! I have my eye on some classic Louboutins and this versatile crossbody YSL bag.
