I’m not usually in to the body-con dresses, but I make an exception for the goddess of wrap dresses, Diane von Furstenberg. Thanks to my newfound obsession with designer consignment (lookin’ at you, The RealReal), I got this dress for $40. (Insert raise the roof emoji.)

If you’re looking to dip your toes in the online consignment pond but you’re skeptical of whether the shit you’re buying is going to be what you expect, I recommend The RealReal. I’ve ordered from them 4 times (in less than 2 months but who’s counting) and have been extremely pleased overall. I only wish they did free shipping and returns! But, it just means you have to be more careful with what you decide to buy, which really is something we should all be working on anyway.

Pro tip: the key to being fashionable is dressing so that one small section of your body is very cold. But it can’t be something obvious like your hands or face. No, it must be a random 3-inch section of your mid calf. Voila. FASHUN.

And speaking of French, this impossibly soft, fancy sweatshirt is from the sustainable brand Amour Vert. The name is en français, but it’s a U.S. company, so overseas shipping costs (yay). This is the only thing I’ve bought from Amour Vert, but so far I’m impressed. And as you know, I have very high standards when it comes to fashun.
