City Opera Thrift Shop



So I have been thrift shopping like a true shopaholic and had to take a peek into City Opera Thrift Shop last week when I visited Housing Works Thrfit Shop. They are both fairly close to each other on 23rd St in NYC. City Opera is a really unique thrift shop and I always love their window displays. They have a great selection of clothes but I come here for the shoes and purses.



They also have a pretty amazing sale on their fur coats right now. I only wear faux but these coats were gorgeous.


I had to try these Steve Maddens on!


I love the layout of this shop and how upstairs overlooks the main level. Its a uniquely shaped shop. They also have a great furniture selection and housing goods.


If you are in town and love thifting check out City Opera Thrift Shop. All the proceeds go toward the creation and production of costumes for New York City Opera at Lincoln Center. I'm so excited for my Shop & Swap Event tomorrow. Will post photos soon!

What have you thrifted lately?
Don't forget to check out my video for Chanel Lipstick and vote for me
