Fashion Friday: Upscale Resale in Glendale

The Fashion

If you're looking for high-end brands like Eileen Fisher or St. John at lower prices, then is the store for you. You can find everything from denim and jackets to suits and dresses at the boutique.

For a cute casual look that's ready for fall, try a pair of David Kahn skinny jeans ($50) with a white Eileen Fisher tee ($18), a lime green August Silk wool blazer ($35), brown Ann Klein boots ($45), a tan Addore elk skin saddle bag ($175) and gold Lee Angel chandelier earrings ($40).

If you aren't comfortable with that burst of color, try a silver Zoa Art jacket ($50) with black Vince zip leggings ($45), a Coach faux snake skin bag ($400), Cole Haan pony hair mules ($45) and some silver cut-out earrings ($8).

For a fall-ready dress, go for a tan and brown Eskandar linen wrap dress ($275), which looks great when paired with a brown Kristen Kahle belt ($65), an Anthony Luciano snake skin bag ($795), brown Emanuel Ungaro boots ($240) and an amber crystal necklace ($15).

For a great date night outfit, try a long-sleeved black Sonia Rykiel wool dress ($135) with an ivory Eileen Fisher satin jacket ($55) and a pair of black boots. A gold and pearl vintage necklace ($25), a crystal and pearl bracelet ($6) and a pair of brushed gold clip earrings ($12) bring a few finishing touches to the look.

Upscale Resale can also help you with your work wardrobe. A black and white St. John suit ($450) looks perfect with a pair of strappy black Saks Fifth Avenue heels ($40) and a black Valerie Stevens bag ($18).

Of course, since the store is a resale shop, there's no guarantee that these items will still be in stock, but they still have plenty of other clothing and accessories to add to your wardrobe.

Be sure to check out the photo gallery for these looks modeled by St. Louis artist Julie Malone.

The Facts

Upscale Resale originally opened on Manchester Road in Kirkwood in 1993. In 2008, it was taken over by , a non-profit charitable organization that assists people who are developmentally disabled.

"All of the clothing here is on consignment," said Amy Hoover, who manages Upscale Resale. "50 percent goes to the consigner, and the other 50 percent goes to the non-profit."

In 2009, the store relocated across the street to its current location, 10042 Manchester Rd. in Glendale.

"People that shop here come from all over," Hoover said. "It's high-quality resale."
