Hello Monday! Chelsea here.

Welcome back to another week, my friends. I’m kicking it off with one of my favorite topics: shopping. Finding unique secondhand items has genuinely never been easier. I’ve found some absolute hidden treasures at the high-end consignment shops of Columbus, and it would be a real shame not to share them with all of you. From elegant fashion pieces to designer products, these boutique gems offer a curated selection for all kinds of shoppers.
