INA. New York

Mid range consignment shops takes designer treasures from fantasy to reality. At Ina in Chelsea these fashion dreams are ever so lightly worn. The shop is ever so slightly changing it’s stock and story. They inherited Carrie Bradshaw’s closet at the end of SATC’s run, and even though those pieces may be long gone the pieces they sell maintains an air of Carrie-ensemble hubris. For those who don’t take fashion too seriously and those who take it more seriously than anything else. Can bring you to a crossroads of want vs. need but the thrill of finding pre-loved treasures can cause those terms to mean the same thing.
