Fabulous Formals

With Mardi Gras balls, prom, weddings, and other formal events coming up this spring, there’s no reason to break the bank on the perfect dress – especially when we have places like Ritzy Rags, a formal consignment shop, just a short drive away.

I know that most of us are not much into wearing “someone else’s” clothes.  But when it comes to formals, most people wear a dress once for a couple of hours, and then it just goes back in the closet to never be worn again.  That means that most of the dresses hanging in Ritzy Rags have hardly been worn; some even have the original tags still on them!  My favorite thing about Ritzy Rags is its prices.  Check out these fun formals I found!

Another great thing about Ritzy Rags is that you can finally clean out your closet and make some money off those gowns that have just been hanging there for years.  Ritzy Rags has some of the most helpful workers I have ever encountered.  The staff members are always up-to-date on fashion and love seeing their customers walk away happy with great finds.  Also, Ritzy Rags seems to be the most generous consignment store when it comes to how much you get for your item.  Although Plato’s Closet gives customers cash upfront, it only gives 30% of the price for which it plans to sell the item.  Private Collection, another great consignment shop with name-brand clothes for less, does not generally accept formal wear, and it only gives 40% of the amount for which it sells your clothes.  Ritzy Rags, however, gives customers HALF of the amount for which it sells items. 

So, as the weather warms up and you get closer to starting the hunt for fabulous formalwear, remember to check out Ritzy Rags, located at 775 Lake Harbour Drive, # F, Ridgeland, MS 39157.  Or, give the store a call at (601) 856-4508. 

Let me know what you find, and, as always, happy hunting!
