Not Organized
It’s rough out there for a fashionista. The economy’s giving out and the holiday season means shelling out. But lucky for us cheeky chicks, Luxe Life Auctions makes it easy to be a recessionista.
Luxe Life is Chicago’s newest auction house, featuring both new and pre-owned luxury goods. But you won’t find bidding paddles or a stern auctioneer here – Luxe Life is redefining resale. Luxe Life sells designer shoes, apparel, antique teacups, collectible artwork, and much more on eBay, and opens up auctions to buyers across the country and across the globe. And they’ve got some amazing finds – like a 1940’s diamond and sapphire cocktail ring and a collection of basketball jerseys signed by Michael Jordan and Larry Bird. All items are carefully evaluated and priced by Luxe Life associates and their expert partners, who guarantee all items’ authenticity. Luxe Life’s partners are specialists in almost every field, from fur and jewelry to classic French furniture. This just might be the place to get your fashion fix – or to score a great holiday present.
If it’s time to let go of a handbag (to make room for more, of course) or get rid of your husband’s jersey collection, Luxe Life will take in your luxury items and resell them for you. Luxe Life takes care of it all – evaluating and photographing items (and even dry cleaning, if necessary), buyer customer service, and even wrapping and shipping the items – all out of their chic gallery space on North Clark Street. What’s in it for you? A big check in the mail.
Luxe Life has amazing variety. The price range is great – high-high-end pieces are more affordable and some other items are just plain steals – and the house’s collection is constantly changing as they update their “store” on eBay. But shoppers need to stay on their toes and at their computers, because Luxe Life auctions happen over days and sometimes weeks. Winning an item takes careful bidding. But what cheeky girl doesn’t like an eensy bit of competition? It makes the win that much sweeter.
