Retrospective

Those of you who are regular readers know that I rarely promote anything outside of Whitley County. Well, once in awhile I’ll advocate venturing outside our borders – particularly when it means pointing out a place I know you’ll all enjoy.

Last week, I ventured northward to Syracuse on the urging of a friend of mine to check out a business located there and I’m going to tip you off to what I found…on the condition you promise to tell whomever sees you and says, "Oh, you look fabulous," you tell them it is all because you read Talk of the Town. Ok. I'm kidding. 

The Revolving Closet is a well-kept secret despite being around since 2003. I only learned about it a month ago and while secrets should typically be kept as such, many of you who are regular readers of this column will find this information helpful…particularly when the economy is what it is…and hey, who doesn’t want to look great and save a few bucks.

The Revolving Closet specializes in current designer clothing and accessories in impeccable, like-new condition. In fact, much of what they have in stock still has tags attached – perhaps the result of shopping mavens who went a little wild? A mistaken splurge? Who cares!

Unlike my closet where things go in and never come out…The Revolving Closet moves up to 200 new items through the store each day. And it is organized – in color order and looks very much like a high-end boutique.

Here's another thought for you, too: it is a consignment boutique...so you could actually clean out your closet, take 25 of your best items up there and put them up for sale. I need to take this advice myself -- my husband will thoroughly agree. I have a few adorable pairs of Michael Simon sandals, new in boxes, that are on my short list of items to take up there.

Oh, and promise me that if you see something there that looks very “Jennifer” that you will not buy it yourself and you’ll call me…immediately. I mean it!
