Best Second Hand Clothes in Austin!!

by XODDXO

I absolutely LOVE Lorali's Second Time Around! This place has the best atmosphere of any consignment store I have ever been to. It is so bright, neat, and colorful it feels more like a high-end boutique than a second hand clothes store. They have a wide variety of inventory (including dresses, jeans, suits, purses, shoes and belts), all of which is excellent quality and at GREAT prices. It is hard to shop anywhere else now because i just think, "I could go to Lorali's and find something I like even more and for a better price!" Another thing I love is that everything is so unique. I find at least one incredible piece everytime I walk in there (though usually I walk out with arm fulls of incredible pieces)! If you haven't been to Second Time Around yet....YOU MUST GO....I promise you'll be back for a second, third, and fourth time around. ;)

• Pros: Everything!!
• Cons: None that I have found yet

Cutest clothes, best prices - from favorite jeans to the little black dress

by Austinite444

I'm not a shopper by nature (I almost prefer the dentist) and working for a non-profit forces me to be frugal. That's why this boutique impresses me - I actually look forward to going and the prices are a steal! (Believe it or not, I've felt guilty on occasion because of how good a deal I'd gotten.) I've found everything from my favorite jeans (about 6 pair) to 2 adorable little black dresses with shoes to match. I'm fairly non-traditional as far as big events are concerned, so when my now-husband and I decided to "run away together" and get married in a Sedona-esque setting I knew exactly where to go. I didn't want a traditional wedding gown, but a evening dress with a simple shape and clean lines. Now remember, shopping is not my idea of fun and my friend had the flu. Do you have any idea how hard it is to do that kind of shopping without aid of a close friend - even if I were a born shopper? With the assistance of a very patient and supportive salesperson, who I later discovered was the proprietor, I was on my way in an hour with exactly what I was hoping to find! I was so excited! Anyway, This boutique is the first place I go on any shopping expedition and more often than not, it's where my journey ends. (Thank God!)

Great find!

I visited from Seattle due to a recommendation and was incredibly impressed by the ambience of the shop and quality of clothes. All of the items were of the moment fashions, excellent quality and incredible prices- what a great quality!

• Pros: quality and price
• Cons: tucked away north of town
