Blog: Crossroads Style

Kitten heels are a notoriously fickle trend. They’re either in or they’re out.

But for those of you who’ve held on to your kitten heels from the last time they were trending, we have excellent news: they’re back. Locate them now and start weaving them into your daily wardrobe!

When you love a good heel, this style is easily appreciated. They polish a look without the balancing act that comes along with higher heels. They work especially well with wide-leg trousers and leggings looks.

Keep scrolling to see some of the adorable options we’ve seen in our stores recently, then check out our seasonal selling guide to see even more styles, labels, and trends we’re loving right now.

Which pair would you choose?

Did you notice that they come in various styles too? Outside of the original heel style, there are short wedges and loafers to consider as well.

If you have a pre-loved pair in great condition that no longer suits your style, bring them into Crossroads to sell, trade, or consign. Our stores buy all day every day, and no appointment is necessary. Just add your name to the waitlist and wait for a text or your name to be called!

Clothing consignment is one the selling options at Crossroads stores that you might not know about.

We’re most popular for our on-the-spot cash and trade payouts, but for higher-end designer clothing and accessories, consignment can be a better match.

Consignment = Higher Cash Payouts

With consignment, you won’t get paid until your item sells–and trade credit isn’t offered–but cash payouts are higher on consignment items. That’s a key benefit that’s hard to overlook!

Take a peek at our latest payout percentages. Notice that for some items you could earn up to 70%.

Like all items we sell, we’re looking for pre-loved pieces in excellent condition. Consignment is ideal for popular designer labels like Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Gucci, Vivienne Westwood, and Fendi. You know, just the most coveted designer labels out there!

How to Consign

When you visit your local Crossroads store to sell, simply ask the buyer about consignment. They’ll work with you to determine if it’s the best selling option for your piece.

Our well-trained buyers can also quote you on the best selling price for your item.

You’ll be walked through the steps and asked to complete a consignment contract. The store takes care of the rest!

Have an item you think is perfect for consignment? Bring it into your local Crossroads to discuss. No appointment is necessary.

Selling clothes for cash is quick and easy at Crossroads stores.

Stop In Anytime

Unlike online marketplaces or selling apps, you can bring in all your clothes to a Crossroads store and try to sell them all at once.

No individual photographs, no caption writing, no buyer questions, no post office runs!

Crossroads stores buy all day every day and don’t require an appointment. That makes it even more convenient.

You just stop in, sign up to sell on our waitlist, and wait to be called. Our trained buyers assess and purchase items on the spot.

And even better: you can collect your cash before you leave the store.

Another Option: Store Credit

When our buyers are done, you’ll have the option to take your payout as cash or trade. Trade is store credit that can be used at any Crossroads location, and it’s the perfect way to refresh your closet with new finds.

Many of our sellers use trade as a way to “revolve” their wardrobes with excellent secondhand finds.

Crossroads Sell by Mail

Want cash for clothes but don’t have a Crossroads nearby, or you’re feeling short on time? Try our Sell by Mail program instead! Here’s how it works: order a bag online, fill it with the freshly-laundered and gently used items you want to sell, and send it off. It comes with a pre-paid postage label, and you can choose to have unpurchased items donated or returned to you.

Whichever selling method you choose, Crossroads makes it easy to sell your pre-loved clothes quickly.

The countdown is near, and casual New Year’s Eve outfits may be what you have in mind.

We covered fancier looks recently, but we know the appeal of an evening at home with friends, watching a holiday movie or listening to everyone’s playlists from the year. After all, sometimes the best dance floors are in our living rooms!

If you’re signed up for a casual New Year’s Eve, we have some outfit inspiration for you.

Monotone Cozy

From the teddy bear coat to the sweatsuit and handbag, all of these pieces are New Year’s Eve cozy. However, something about the monotone palette elevates the look.

Standout Sweater

When we want to show up in jeans and flats, we count on an impeccable sweater to dress up the look.

Navy & Black

This color combination scares off a lot of people, and that’s what makes it extra special and so chic.

Sweater & Slip Skirt

It’s a look that’s easy to pull together and comfortable for an evening in, while still showing off some of your favorite winter pieces.

Leather/Faux Leather Pants

You can pair these with anything from a soft sweater to a silk blouse to a white tee.

Sweater Vest & Wide-Leg Trousers

You know how we love a sweater vest! Pair it with wide-leg trousers for a sophisticated casual look.

Overcoat

With a beautiful overcoat like this wool camel one, you can dress up any look for your New Year’s evening.
