Fashion Exchange Consignment — Local services in McLean

I keep going back to this place, for years now. The selection is truly classy and the prices are reasonable.

Over the past few years I have gotten Chanel sunglasses, Salvatore Ferragamo shoes, Gucci handbags, a Fendi watch ... the list goes on.

The ladies who run and work in the shop are also a delight - helpful, patient and always with a willing smile. It's my Saturday morning fix! Pam Saunders/ A Canadian Living...
