I’m trying to make fairly sustainable fashion choices and have moved away from fast fashion. I buy a handful of nice, carefully selected pieces and wear them forever. However, I changed sizes after childbirth and need a new wardrobe. I don’t want to spend too much money buying everything new but I also hated consignment shopping during my very limited experience. I found the stores I shopped at to be packed with cheap, unfashionable polyester clothing.

I’m looking for better consignment/used clothes stores in the twin cities area. I wear 6/8 sizes and I need some work blouses, jeans and dresses made with good fabrics. I spend anywhere between $50-200 on pieces for clothing to give you and idea on budget. I live in St Paul but willing to drive wherever. Bonus points if they will consign my old clothes and accessories efficiently.

I made a post asking about thrift stores but it was removed. I should've been more specific. I'm looking for higher-end thrift stores not just value village, goodwill, and WIN. Those are all great but I'm looking to splurge a little but not so much that I'm buying new. Thanks!
