"Why it's great: This store is very boutique-y in a youthful kind of way. It seems to be aimed at women in their 20s or early 30s. It's not uncommon for customers to question whether items are really consignment because everything seems new and fresh. It also helps that the store is also big and bright.
What it carries: Labels include Banana Republic, lululemon, Michael Kors and such jeans as 7 For All Mankind and Citizens of Humanity. Hush also carries clothing by area designers Kania and Paparazzi Couture and Pish Posh handcrafted jewelry."
Prices: You can get designer jeans that normally retail for $300 for as low as $75. Designer handbags sell for roughly $130. You can pick up a formal evening gown for about $120.
