Hello hello, I hope everyone is managing to find small snippets of enjoyment in lockdown 3.0. I’m using the extra time indoors to detox my clothing collection and curate the ultimate capsule wardrobe for summer. After all, at some point, we will be able to leave the house again, maybe even the country, which means dressing up again!
Fun fact. I’ve just managed to replace my favourite Nicholas Kirkwood Beya Loafers and paid only a fraction of the price. How? Three words. Luxury consignment shopping.
In my quest for designer capsule pieces, I’ve come across the crown jewel of luxury consignment shopping and I can’t wait to share it with you. There is something so exciting about buying your dream bag or pair of shoes and getting them for less than the retail price in near perfect condition.
This year, instead of sticking to a rigid posting schedule, I will be posting on a need to know basis. And trust me. You need to know about Sellier Knightsbridge. I wanted to bring your attention to a way of shopping for designer labels that will save you money but also lower your carbon footprint at the same time.
Now you all know about my love for luxury brands but I’m 100% over paying full price for them. So, I wanted to post a review of Sellier Knightsbridge for those of you, who like me, want to detox your wardrobe and sell your vintage bags, clothes, and shoes to fund new purchases. Here’s where you can find the designer brands you adore for less and sell the items you’ve fallen out of love with.
Who are Sellier Knightsbridge?
Sellier Knightsbridge are a luxury resale platform that specialises in second-hand designer clothing and accessories. It’s your go-to for Golden Goose trainers, Bottega Veneta slides, amazing Chanel and Roland Mouret dresses. They have access to high-end designer brands and boast one of the most impressive collections of pre-loved Hermes bags I’ve ever seen. With a store in London and an online presence, it’s never been easier to stock your wardrobe with beautiful brands.
Why Shop with Sellier Knightbridge?
Sellier Knightsbridge has one of the most spectacular collections of pre-owned designer pieces from Vintage Chanel to the rarest of Hermes handbags. Based in London, their stock comes from the closets of some of the most fashionable socialites in the city. Whether you have your heart set on a Hermes bag in a particular hue that is no longer in stock or you want to replace a much loved old season piece, you can find it in a flash. More and more people are looking to invest in designer bags, me included, and bookmarking these consignment stores and keeping an eye on the new stock that comes in is the perfect way to get your hands on bags that aren’t available elsewhere and the chances are that if you can’t find it at the brand’s website, you’ll find it here at a bargain price.
Why Sell with Sellier Knightsbridge?
Well, with an active Instagram page and a stellar reputation, there’s a very high chance your listing will actually sell, and fast. Sellier Knightsbridge will authenticate, list, and market your item, putting it in the spotlight on their Instagram page and do all of the hard work for you. Because of their rigorous authentication process, they are a trusted brand and have a loyal audience that is sure they won’t be fobbed off with a fake. They have thousands of followers who tune in to watch their stories and items shown here sell in seconds! Every day there’s a new drop of Hermes, Dior, YSL and Louis Vuitton bags as well as Louboutins. Race you there!
Follow The Store on Instagram
I couldn’t write a review of Sellier Knightsbridge without talking about their Instagram page which is my current favourite pastime. If you want an excuse to do a little second-hand browsing, their Instagram page basically is awash with coveted Chanel flats, Hermes bags in insanely good condition, Gucci velvet bags, and Isabel Marant over the knee boots. Every day, the store showcases the new arrivals and if you are quick enough, you can shop them on the website. This is where you will see the most luxurious and exciting pieces and unlike other preloved sites you don’t have to scroll through thousands of bang average products to get to the good stuff. Hello, shiny new Aquazurra Heels.
Most Wanted
So, what do I have my eye on? Well, my wish list is extensive. I’m fairly obsessed with their Chanel Edit. This pink Chanel mohair coat has been on my wishlist since they posted it on their Instagram page. Also, this Dior Diorama bag would make a great capsule summer accessory. Slightly more in my price range are these to die for Isabel Marant baby blue suede trainer wedges which are perfect for summer. They have them in black too! You can shop the bargain pieces that are all under £150. Where else can you find a Dolce and Gabbana pencil skirt and a pair of Charlotte Olympia loafers at this price? Whether you want the most perfect wear-with-everything over the knee suede boots or a classic pair of Louboutin heels, a capsule tote, or a pair of off duty slides, you can find it here.
Investment in Fashion
So, this year I’m going to invest in a Hermes handbag (in bubblegum) and the easiest way to get your hands on the rare out of stock colours and designs is to get one second hand. Hermes bags have seen a whopping 13% growth in value over the last year and they sell at sky-high prices at auction. Sellier Knightsbridge has a most wanted Hermes section that is to die for. But the real star of the show is this Hermes Kelly in white which is currently listed for 50% below retail value. If you know Hermes, you will know that only selected colours are available on rotation and white is not currently one of them! I’ll just leave a link to it here.
Other notable points about shopping with Sellier Knightsbridge is that you get a streamlined online shopping experience, you can navigate the products easily and shop with confidence online as every piece has been thoroughly checked by authenticity experts. Perfect for lockdown. Want a more sustainable way to fill your closet full of stunning designer pieces? Buying pre-loved pieces give an item a second lease of life, extending its lifespan and preventing it from ending up as landfill. Cool huh?
