Closet Revival

Especially in this economic climate, saving a few bucks on clothing or accessories can be as satisfying as finding an Ann Taylor outfit or a Coach handbag you like in the first place. While thrift stores are cheap enough, they're hit-and-miss when it comes to the thrill of finding something special in a brand-name retail store. Things are different with consignment shops like CLOSET REVIVAL, where you're much more likely to come across a trendy belt or scarf without poring over items that look like they're from your great-grandmother's attic trunk. They'll be cleaner, too. Proprietors Amanda Gallagher and Judith Shumway insist that clothing items arrive cleaned and pressed from the consignee. The only problem might be deciding whether to grab up that Banana Republic or Armani shirt right away or come back next week and see if the price has gone down. | 30 Broadway, Newport | 401.845.0592
