Great Labels in Santa Monica is hands down my favorite consignment shop. Why? The place just has my style. I often find gently worn, classic designer pieces that I can wear forever — like the military style Diane Von Furstenberg 3/4 sleeve shirt I got there and probably wear too often. If we’re friends on Facebook, you’ve probably seen pictures of me wearing it!
Right now, 100% of the proceeds from the bargain rack will go to support the Haitian earthquake relief.
And the bargain rack really has some bargains! Look at the price tags.
Plus, the place has an extra large shoe selection!
Assuming no one’s snatched them up since I saw them on Tuesday, a pair of cute pink size 8 Marc Jacobs shoes are on sale for $32. They’ll be perfect once the rain stops!
Here’s where I usually put my “‘buying stuff you don’t need or won’t end up wearing isn’t green even if it’s used” and “the greenest closet is the one you already own” caveats. I know I sound like a broken record sometimes, but whenever I don’t include the anti overconsumption clauses, someone emails to complain….
Great Labels. 1126 Wilshire Blvd., Santa Monica. 310.451.2277.

If you’re keeping it out of the landfill, I don’t see the harm. It looks like a great shop.

I definitely recommend stopping by if you decide to visit from Portland :)
