Consignment Shops

Hi All!

I live in Charlottesville and would like to make a trip to Richmond to do some shopping. What are your favorite consignment, thrift and vintage shops for women’s clothing? Bonus point for multiple shops in close proximity.

Thank you!

Finding jeans/pants that fit has become almost impossible. Not only because of vanity sizing but also because of length. I’m average height (5’5”) but have long legs in proportion to my height and I weight about 115 lbs. For example, I recently found some American Eagle jeans I liked the style and fit of in a size 00 but needed a longer length. I looked online and found that they aren’t available in long length under a size 2. Often when I do find long length jeans in my size, they also fit longer in the torso (like more inches between the waist and the crotch) which isn’t flattering.

For shirts, dresses and jackets that are more structured and not stretchy, they end up fitting too long. Stretchy tops and crop tops tend to fit better and I can sometimes find petite sizes or even kids size tops that fit. But I’d like to find more brands that are flattering for my body.

Also bras! Where are you ladies finding small band/larger cup size bras? I was formerly a member of the IBTC 😅 but I got implants and am now measuring at a 28F. I wear VS 32DD since that’s the closest thing to fitting. I did try a Freya bra in my size but it’s super stiff and uncomfy.

TIA!
