fashionistas,Hello I am so excited and honored to be a part of this issue! I have been fixated on fashion and fashion history my entire life, so when your editor Sue Collins invited me to be the guest editor for the “style issue'' I jumped at theI’vechance. lived, dined and especially SHOPPED in Alpharetta for more than 20 years now and I’ve seen so many changes. How many of you remember the years when what we now know as Avalon was just a big cement slab? And when my family and I first moved here, Northpoint Mall was the place to go back to school shopping. Speaking of Northpoint, I am excited about the renovations to that space, have you been lately? There are some incredible fashion and art exhibits in temporary spaces on display now. One of my passions is resale and vintage shopping - I take customers to Paris for shopping trips and the number one request is always shopping for vintage at the Paris Flea Markets. Here in Alpharetta, I love to stop in reg ularly at Designer Consigner, Queen of Hearts and Drake’s Closet, because when shopping resale I recommend stopping in often, you never know what treasures you will find! yours, NANCY Sue and I toasting to YOU, fashionable readers!

What can be better for the future of our planet than recycling? Recycling fashion is one of the most satisfying acts of sustain ability according to Vivienne Westwood who says, “Buy less. Choose well. Make it last.” Call it eco-fashion if you like, it just makes sense if you can shop resale and find hidden treasures. There are many places to buy resale online: The Real Real, Vestiaire Collective and Poshmark to name a few, but when you shop locally and find treasures to be cherished as a staple in your wardrobe, then you hit the jackpot! There are many shops in Alpharetta for finding these amazing items if you shop with an open mind.

Jewelry at Designer Consigner
A moto jacket and pleated skirt will take you anywhere
Designer Consigner on North Main Street has a great ins tagram account @designerconsigner where they frequently post some of the luxury leather goods that come through the store. Act fast because they often sell as soon as they are posted! Visiting the store is a treat with its organized racks by size and color and color-coded price tags with potential discounts based on date. As their website says, “Designer Consigner is more than just a store, it is a place for women to gather, to find great deals, laugh, and encourage one another to feel fabulous.” What could be more fabulous and also pleas ing to your pocketbook?

Drake’s Closet on South Main Street is one such space where shoppers can find luxury goods with big-name labels, or no-name pieces that spark joy in your collection. Shopping to benefit the Drake House is an added bonus at this bou tique. Helping homeless women and children through your purchase is an incredible way to fashionably give back. When you do a closet cleanout to make room for your resale pur chases, remember Drake’s Closet in Alpharetta will take donations at any time. An important thing to remember when exploring resale boutiques is to be open-minded when you shop, knowing that your alteration professional can be your best friend. The Red Mannequin just down the street is a wonderful place to take pieces to have them altered to fit you. Certain items can be changed to make a larger waist band or longer sleeve, as well as taken in to fit your silhou ette perfectly. Shop by feel - when you see a rack of sweaters, feel for the cashmere pieces. Blazers and jackets are always a good find. Look for a classic that you can wear again and again. A statement handbag does not have to be brand new, (of course that big orange box is always a treat) but resale has more selection if you know where to look.

My mother cherished her herringbone 24-carat gold chain she bought on QVC in the 80s and she passed it on to me one recent Christmas. I don’t wear gold, so I gave it to my daughter the fol lowing year as a gift for her graduation. It really means something special to my mom to see her granddaughter enjoying the necklace she loved to wear so often. BY AWAY

“Accessorizing with jewelry can mean a little sparkle here or there, or in the case of Coco Chanel, rows and rows of pearls.”
TREND SETTER | ARTS + CULTURE28
Do you have a special piece of jewelry that was handed down to you from a cherished relative? What do you do with it, how do you wear it, or how do you incorporate it into the current trends with your style? Whether inherited or purchased at a flea market, jewelry can be that bit of sparkle that adds pizazz to any ensemble. Do you have a rhinestone or colored stone brooch sitting in your jewelry box? Wear it on your lapel, or even a beret or knit hat. And if you have a piece that you aren’t wearing, pass it on to your next generation - they might find new ways to wear it!
Jewelry is always in fashion, and the latest trends are showing us that brooches are having a moment! Pearls when styled right, or layering up chains in either silver or gold are trends for fall. Stacking rings can be your style, or one single gold band can be so chic. When looking for vintage, look for designer names. A Chanel pin is so versatile that it can be worn on a denim jacket or a velvet evening coat. Women who find themselves marrying for a second time might have jewelry given to them by a previous spouse. Jewels have energy surrounding them, and should be cared for with love and respect for the stone itself, not always the sentiment of the giver!

Choose your own style and don’t be afraid to rock it when running errands, meeting friends for drinks or showing up at a weekend work retreat. Here in Alpharetta, we’re spoiled for choice along downtown’s very own Fifth Avenue, AKA Milton Avenue. Next time you’re downtown with a friend, pop into one of your favorite shops, or try some thing new and try on a hat. Don’t look in the mirror yet! How does it feel? Does it fit well? Does your pal give it the thumbs up? We tend to be our own toughest critic, so ask the boutique’s pros to chime in. And then go ahead and invest in a hat and wear it with confidence. We can’t wait to see you downtown!
