Life's Little Luxuries
Michael's Consignment is Celebrating Earth Day Every Day!
The purpose of Earth day should not be limited to just a day. The acts that are highlighted on Earth day are important for everyone to be aware of, but as a society we must do our part. Down below are ways in which you can reduce your carbon and water footprints in order to sustain our planet for the present and the future.
One Item Challenge with Inna Bose
We're celebrating Earth month by partnering with one of our favorite fashionable sustainable bloggers, Inna Bose! We challenged Inna to pick one item from our collection and style it in three whole different looks! And Inna for sure delivered.We love a versatile item that can be worn with anything, just like this Alexander Wang denim jacket that Inna chose as her one item. She had so much fun styling these three different looks in honor of Earth Day. It just goes to show that investing in a quality piece that you can wear all the time is not only stylish, but sustainable.

The 2019 Oscars Best Dressed List
The 91st Annual Academy Awards took place last night and all our favorite Hollywood stars strutted down the red carpet for the biggest night in the entertainment industry. Several stars wore Karl Lagerfeld’s last couture creations from Fendi and Chanel, paying homage to the late designer. Brandon Maxwell and Versace were another two designers that made several appearances on the carpet. Pink was also a major trend, from shades of pale pink to bright poppy magenta. Celebrities went for the royal touch with their gowns featuring very long and dramatic trains. Statement necklaces also made big appearances from Lady Gaga’s borrowed 128 carat Tiffany diamond to Amy Adams diamond necklace. Today we’ll be sharing our favorite looks from last night’s glamorous red carpet that we thought shined bright the most!
The Legacy of Karl Lagerfeld
The white ponytail, the signature sunglasses, and the tailored clothes. The only person that comes to mind when we hear these signature and iconic facets is Karl Lagerfeld. One of the world’s most famous fashion designers and one of our favorites, Karl Lagerfeld, has passed at the age of 85. He is remembered by his legacy at the design houses of Chanel, Fendi, and his own line by his namesake.
