FAQs

Where do you acquire your inventory?

The Brand New
I scour high-end designer sales, small luxe boutiques and large luxury retail stores throughout the country looking for the best quality pieces at the best prices. Nothing is secured from an outlet (which often sells pieces of lower quality and inferior materials.) 

The Preloved
I meticulously handpick preloved and vintage items from stores that specialize in luxury consignment, all of which employ in-house authenticators. While I am currently working with 2-3 trusted clients on a consignment basis, Simply Audrey is not a consignment store. Because I meticulously handpick each item, my inventory is smaller, but you can trust the quality.

 

How do you determine condition of your items?

New
These pieces are brand-spanking-new, and sourced directly from the designer, or purchased from a luxury store/boutique. Absolutely nothing is acquired from an outlet store.

New with Tags
This describes preowned pieces that are in perfect condition. They have not been worn and still have the original tags attached.

Preloved
Our preloved pieces come in four conditions: New with Tags (NWT), Pristine, Excellent and Very Good.

Vintage
Our vintage pieces are a minimum of 20 years old, and are assigned one of our Preloved Conditions.

    How do I determine my size?

    We understand that determining which size to purchase can be tricky. If you have questions regarding size conversions, please visit reference our sizing chart for clarity. In addition, we will usually indicate in the item description if the piece does NOT run true-to-size.
