Renting luxury handbags is so 2005. Buying resale is so much better for the environment. And besides, the thought of schlepping into the city in search of the latest designer sample sales is beginning to wear thinner than your sheerest blouse. Speaking of… are you the one that has that Christian Dior dress in the back of your closet that you wore only once, WITH THE TAGS STILL ON?
The RealReal.com, a new website focused on luxury consignment, is your new one stop shop-and-sell destination. Brands like Hermes, Chanel, Balenciaga and Prada are sold at up to 90% off of retail prices. Every week the site offers a number of exclusive luxury designer sales events (from the likes of Chloe, Fendi, Manolo Blahnik) in addition to ongoing contemporary designer sales (hello Marc by Marc Jacobs, Betsey Johnson, Elie Tahari, and Tory Burch). The selection is great and the whole site feels like a carefully curated designer boutique.
For consigners (that’s you, Ms. Tags Still On) the deal is pretty sweet: The Real Real offers free in-home pick up if you consign more than 10 items and live in the tri-state area, and you’ll make 60 – 70% of whatever you sell—clothes, shoes, handbags, even jewelry.
It’s the new way to runway: reuse, recycle, RealReal. Really.

Where Can I Take My 6 Month Old for Swim Lessons? - Nadia M.
Hey Nadia!
There are tons of great places in Bergen for indoor swimming lessons where even the tiniest of tots can get exposure to the basics and feel comfortable in the water. The YJCC Bergen in Washington Township is a spot which is centrally located and you don’t have to be a member to enjoy their heated pool and experienced aquatics staff. The YJCC’s Little Sharks Swim School has programs for kids as young as 6 months, plus the center offers private and semi-private lessons as well. For more details check out their full program here.
